Muzzy Izzet

Mustafa Kemal "Muzzy" Izzet (İzzet; born 31 October 1974) is a Turkish former professional footballer who played as a midfielder for Chelsea, Leicester City, Birmingham City.

Born in England, he played for the Turkey national team internationally. He was part of the Turkey squad for the 2000 Euros and the squad that won bronze at the 2002 World Cup.

Early life
His father is a Turkish Cypriot who came to England as a small boy, and his mother is English. His younger brother, Kemal, also became a professional footballer.

Leicester City
Izzet signed as a schoolboy for Chelsea, but never made a first team appearance during three years at the London club. He moved to Leicester City in March 1996 on loan for the rest of the season. He became a regular in the side, scoring one goal. When Leicester beat Crystal Palace in the play-offs, Izzet was able to make his move permanent for a fee of £800,000. He kept his place in the side for their Premier League season, which was successful for City. They came 9th in the Premier League, and won the League Cup. Izzet formed a partnership in midfield with Neil Lennon, which proved vital for Leicester.

In the 1998–99 season, Leicester came 10th in league, and reaching the League Cup final again, but lost out to Tottenham Hotspur. The following season, Leicester came 8th, and again got to the League Cup Final, this time coming up against Tranmere Rovers, of Division One. This year they won 2–1, with Matt Elliott getting both goals. Izzet had been a regular in the side through all of this time. After Martin O'Neill left to become manager of Scottish club Celtic, Izzet remained a Leicester player. His time at Leicester attracted interest from West Ham and Middlesbrough, but he did not leave the club.

Despite pledging to stay at Leicester prior to the start of the 2001-02 season, Izzet submitted a transfer request in the autumn of 2001. However, he rejected a move to Middlesbrough as he did not want to be seen to be "jumping ship". He issued a plea to Martin O'Neill to sign him in May 2002, remarking that "only an idiot wouldn't consider joining Celtic."

Following Leicester's relegation and with the club in administration, Izzet was again linked with Middlesbrough. However, Leicester insisted they would not accept a reduced offer for Izzet, who was valued at £6 million. He withdrew his transfer request in March 2003, with the club securing promotion to the Premier League a month later on 19 April. In January 2004, Leicester rejected £500,000 bids from Aston Villa and Blackburn Rovers for Izzet. Leicester were relegated at the end of the 2003–04 season. Unable to afford Izzet's £30,000 per week wages, the club admitted he was leaving. Izzet was Leicester's standout player during the season, assisting 14 of the club's 48 goals, or 29% of goals scored by the club.

Birmingham City
Izzet joined Birmingham City in June 2004 on a free transfer, signing a three-year deal. He scored his only goal for Birmingham in September; an equaliser against Bolton Wanderers. The following match, Izzet suffered a knee injury following a challenge from Newcastle United's Olivier Bernard on 3 October 2004. This injury plagued the remainder of Izzet's season and he was able to make only two further appearances. The knee problems continued into the following season and he featured sporadically throughout his time at the club, until he was forced to announce his retirement from football in June 2006.

Thurmaston Town
On 28 November 2009, Izzet made a shock last minute return to Saturday football with Leicestershire Senior League side Thurmaston Town. However, he admitted days later that his knee was still very sore and was quoted saying "whether I can turn out for Thurmaston every week is another thing." He never played for them again.

International career
Izzet qualified for the Turkey national side through his Turkish-Cypriot father. He was included in the Turkey squad for Euro 2000, making his debut and sole appearance in the tournament in the group stage as Turkey drew 0–0 with Sweden. He was also part of the squad for the 2002 World Cup, featuring again just once, as a substitute in the 1–0 semi-final defeat to Brazil.

In total, Izzet made nine appearances for the national side.

Later career
Izzet now runs a football academy with fellow former professional footballer and former Leicester teammate Steve Walsh. In September 2015 Izzet's autobiography was published, titled Muzzy: My Story. The autobiography was co-written with Leicester Mercury writer Lee Marlow.

Izzet is an ambassador for Dorothy Goodman School, a Special Educational Needs school in Hinckley, Leicestershire.

Communion and the developmentally disabled

Holy Communion, also known as the Eucharist and the Lord's Supper, is a Christian rite that is considered a sacrament in most churches. The elements of the rite are sacramental bread and wine (or non-alcoholic grape juice).

The accessibility of the Eucharist to intellectually disabled Christians varies depending on the Christian denomination or community.

Some Christian traditions maintain that a theological understanding of the sacrament is necessary to receive Eucharist and, therefore, do not administer the sacrament to intellectually disabled persons. Other Christian traditions maintain that spiritual devotion to the real presence of Jesus Christ is necessary to receive the Eucharist and, therefore, administer the sacrament to intellectually disabled persons under particular conditions - presuming the benefit of the sacrament can be received even if the Eucharist is not consumed. Still other Christian traditions understand the practice of Eucharist principally as a communal expression of community solidarity or unity and, therefore, administer the sacrament indiscriminately during the liturgy.

Roman Catholicism
Thomas Aquinas maintained that all cognitively impaired Christians have a right to the Eucharist and that the sacrament should not be withheld from such persons, except in the most extreme of circumstances (STh III.80.9). According to Aquinas, the only extreme circumstance that warrants withholding the Eucharist from a cognitively impaired Christian is if the Christian is entirely incapable of expressing their desire to receive the Eucharist.

The Code of Canon Law of the Roman Catholic Church has official policy about how the sacraments should be administered in the case of adult Christians who lack the use of reason. The rationale was developed on the understanding that persons who lack the use of reason, like infants, need the assistance of others to participate in the sacraments of the Church. Thus, ecclesial care for infants provides the principles for the ecclesial care of intellectually disabled persons.

Regarding the administration of Eucharist to children and other persons who lack the use of reason, Canon 913 states
 * "§1. The administration of the Most Holy Eucharist to children requires that they have sufficient knowledge and careful preparation so that they understand the mystery of Christ according to their capacity and are able to receive the body of Christ with faith and devotion."
 * "§2. The Most Holy Eucharist, however, can be administered to children in danger of death if they can distinguish the body of Christ from ordinary food and receive communion reverently."

This policy is reflected in the positions published by many Roman Catholic dioceses in the United States and Australia. Additionally, the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops stated in its Guidelines for the Celebration of the Sacraments with Persons with Disabilities (approved 1995):
 * the criterion for reception of holy communion is the same for persons with developmental and mental disabilities as for all persons, namely, that the person be able to distinguish the Body of Christ from ordinary food, even if this recognition is evidenced through manner, gesture, or reverential silence rather than verbally. Pastors are encouraged to consult with parents, those who take the place of parents, diocesan personnel involved with disability issues, psychologists, religious educators, and other experts in making their judgment. If it is determined that a parishioner who is disabled is not ready to receive the sacrament, great care is to be taken in explaining the reasons for this decision. Cases of doubt should be resolved in favor of the right of the baptized person to receive the sacrament. The existence of a disability is not considered in and of itself as disqualifying a person from receiving the eucharist.

In an effort to better reach marginalized populations, such as those living with autism and other developmental disabilities, while at the same time providing for their religious education, organizations have emerged offering online alternatives to traditional Faith Formation in keeping with the USCCB's Guidelines.

Eastern Catholic Church
Similar to the Roman Catholic view, Eastern Catholic Churches, which practice infant communion, favor intellectually disabled Christians being allowed to receive the Eucharist.

Orthodox Christianity
Orthodox Christianity makes communion available to all baptized and chrismated church members who wish to receive it, regardless of developmental or other disabilities. The theory is that the soul of the recipient understands what is being received even if the conscious mind is incapable of doing so, and that the grace imparted by Communion "for the healing of soul and body" is a benefit that most especially should not be denied in such cases. This is consistent with the practice of Infant Communion in Eastern Orthodoxy.

Orthodox Christians typically receive the Sacrament of Confession before receiving the Eucharist. However, for those who are either mentally incapable of recognizing or recalling their sins, or who are mentally or physically incapable of communicating their sins to a priest, this requirement is dispensed with, just as it is for very young children.

Protestantism
There are thousands of denominations within the Protestant structure, and each will have their own policy of working with people who have an intellectual impairment.

Anglican
While the Anglican Church (also known as the Episcopalian Church) welcomes all people, it does not have a firm policy for giving communion to people with learning difficulties. However, most Anglican churches hold an "open table", meaning that all baptised Christians are welcome to receive communion.

Presbyterianism
The Church of Scotland says in regard to those with learning difficulties:

 * "there is nothing in the law of the Church which would automatically disqualify a person with learning difficulties from admission to the Lord's Table and from having his or her name added to the Communion Roll of a congregation."

Lutheranism
In the Lutheran Churches, the sacrament of Holy Communion is administered to people with intellectual disability, as with people with dementia.

Nondenominational Christianity
In most evangelical Christian churches, the only requirement for any individual to participate in Communion is that the person professes to have a personal relationship with God and to have accepted Jesus Christ as their Savior. Before Communion in these churches, the policy is usually verbally outlined and the decision is left up to the individual.

List of chapter names
Just as a note to editors, please don't add a whole list of chapters in the article. The SHORT list of examples of chapter titles is only there to give people a BRIEF idea of the concept. thanks--EhavEliyahu 11:24, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
 * ✅ a List of Phi Beta Sigma chapters that is separate from the main article has been created for this purpose -- Educatedblkman1914 00:14, 30 July 2011 (UTC)

Updates
Is a list of that many names really justified, given WP:NOT? This article really gives the impression of an advertisement rather than an encyclopedia article. --Jasonisme 22:08, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
 * I personally don't think it's terribly necessary; we already have a list of the notable ones elsewhere anyway. I wouldn't quite go so far as to call it an advertisement, though, but I've seen some pretty blatant stuff.  As for the actual deletion, I'll leave the final verdict to the next person to comment.  Falcon 04:25, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

 * I have moved the list of names to its own page and linked it. I will work on improving this article starting this weekend.  I will also add sources for the information.  I think I still have some information from when I was involved in the organization.--EhavEliyahu 20:49, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

Seven University of South Carolina students have been arrested for a hazing incident that took place off-campus. Detectives say that during the initiation meeting, some of the fraternity members charged in the incident strangled the student with a T-shirt and hit him multiple times on his body with a wooden paddle, belt and steel bat. Deputies say some of the fraternity members charged in the incident also hit the victim more than 100 times on his body with closed fists and open hands. Deputies say the victim told them that when he arrived at the apartment, fraternity members blindfolded him and assaulted him. During the assaults, the victim reported that he nearly lost consciousness.

Rushing Black Fraternities
If possible, please clean up this section: Fraternities_and_sororities. It reads poorly and its citations should be footnotes instead. I am also unsure of the universality of said processes; if they are fairly common, keep them; if not, delete them. Thank you for your help. —ScouterSig 16:45, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

❌ that section no longer exists in that article--  (user)(talk) 04:28, 17 September 2011 (UTC)

Biography sections
I think the article would be greatly improved if the long biography sections on the 3 foundes and the 3 other members were removed. I think it would be best to create separate articles for these men and just provide limited text within the article with their PBS contributionand a wikilink to the person's new wikipedia article.--Ccson 16:22, 29 April 2007 (UTC)
 * I took your recommendation and moved the current information under the founders into their own pages. I left their pictures there with links to the new pages Occasio 20:32, 12 May 2007 (UTC)
 * You should do the same for the section "Diversity in membership'. I think it's okay for now to include one paragraph and picture for each person and then direct them to that person main artile for all the good details.  The same for the 3 founder is you want to add some text, I just thought the entire bio was overwhelming for the general fraternity.  I'll review and provide other suggestions.--Ccson 05:40, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

Redirect Page
I have redirected the Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, Inc page to this page. Occasio 13:59, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

Table of Presidents Location
Where would be the best place to put the table of Presidents? Occasio 21:28, 12 May 2007 (UTC)
 * I think the current locations is okay for now, but as the article progresses, you may find a different location more suitable. I would suggest you remove the title "Honorable" from each naame, since they all seem to be honorable.  May include some text before the table describing the role of the President and that they obtain the title "honorable" once elected.--Ccson 05:45, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

Three Presidents for Speedy Deletion as well as images
I have requested speedy attention for all three founder's pages, since they are in violation of copyright. They are exact copies of http://www.pbs1914.org/history/morse.asp, http://www.pbs1914.org/History/brown.asp, and http://www.pbs1914.org/History/morse.asp. Also, I am going to submit some of the pictures which are on this page to WP:MFD, because they are part of the website, which is copyrighted.  Real96  06:07, 13 May 2007 (UTC)
 * I have decided to withdraw the image request, since it is under GFDL.  Real96  06:11, 13 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Are you saying that the images of the three founders may be utilized because they are under GFDL? Educatedblkman1914 23:39, 15 August 2009 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Educatedblkman1914 (talk • contribs)

History of Stepping
removed per Copyrights. Page is verbatim copy of Phi Beta Sigma page here, originally with spelling errors. NPOV rewrite of info with sources to the book copied would be sufficient fix.-Robotam 20:29, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

 * I am not sure how this works on Wikipedia, but the article on stepping was originally written by me in the 1990's. After I left the fraternity it was taken by several chapters in the fraternity on posted on their web-sites.  Since the originally site where I wrote the artile is no longer up the link for the page was the closest I could come.  I only recently copy wrote the article as a part of a book I have written, I didn't initially copywrite it when I wrote it in the 1990's.  Once again I am not sure how something like this works out.--EhavEliyahu 12:11, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

EhavEliyahu, i'm by no means the expert, but, depending on how you published it, it may or may not run afoul of No original research. generally, you are also going to run into trouble if you insert it into the article in a non-neutral point of view. from experience, i would say your best bet would be to cite to the original sources you used, and stay clear of anything that sounds like opinion, argument, or what wiki calls "weasel words" (ie-"others say," "some say"). "stepping to the blues" is a good source to cite, as well. Hope that helps.-Robotam 14:30, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

 * Thanks for the info. I have actually sent an email to Phi Beta Sigma members who are still active to work on the article.  I just wanted to get it started so that someone else could work on it.--EhavEliyahu 14:44, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

 * copasetic. best of luck.-Robotam 15:32, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

Table of Presidents
The word "honorable" should be taken out from the table, since not everyone on wikipedia is a member of Phi Beta Sigma. Also, numbers should be taken out of the table as well.  Real96  00:02, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Corrected this. Real96 07:10, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
 * ✅, The table of presidents has been transformed into a template and placed under the membership section of the article--  (user)(talk) 04:33, 17 September 2011 (UTC)

Assessment
Right now, I still think this article is a start class, because 1.) Most of the text looks like it is copied from another source. 2.) The lines of various chapters don't need to be included because it's redundant and can be included in Fraternities and sororities 3.) Famous members' biographies should not be included on the page. Instead membership as a whole (i.e. numbers and profession) should be included.  Remember, this article is not a handout for the organization! If you want ideas to see what type of content the article should encompass, look at Alpha Phi Alpha for FA and Alpha Kappa Alpha for B/possibly GA.  Miranda  13:25, 2 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Took out "lines," "videos," and "famous members," because the information is not necessary with the article. Miranda 01:34, 16 June 2007 (UTC)

 * Greetings Miranda. I agree with your assessments. I actually did some of the updates to the article with the hope that someone who is still active in the Fraternity would continue to work on it and improve it. Initially, the fraternity line information wasn't meant to be a comprehensive list. It was meant to be a section that discussed the culture of Phi Beta Sigma, but eventually people kept adding chapters instead of working on the content of that section, so I agree with its deletion. The other information was meant only to be a start since the members who were listed were instrumental in molding the fraternity structure. Same issue there it was meant to be taken on by members who could write the information in a way that connected the entire article.--EhavEliyahu 13:14, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
 * ✅ I think that a reassessment is due for this article seeing as the previous issues regarding the content have been resolved and the article has received extensive expansion Educatedblkman1914 21:43, 21 August 2009 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Educatedblkman1914 (talk • contribs)

Black Power Movement
In the section on the Civil Rights movement, the mention of the Panthers is followed directly by a reference to the Black Power Movement, implying that these are one and the same. I think that's a serious error in logic and history. The Panthers were part of the movement; they were not the entire movement. An outbound link to the movement itself would be helpful for comprehension.66.92.161.127 (talk) 16:09, 21 February 2010 (UTC)
 * ✅ The most recent edit to that paragraph should clear up any misconceptions and misrepresentations --Educatedblkman 1914 03:06, 30 March 2010 (UTC)

Moynihan Commission on Government Secrecy

The Commission on Protecting and Reducing Government Secrecy, also called the Moynihan Commission, after its chairman, U.S. Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan, was a bipartisan statutory commission in the United States. It was created under Title IX of the Foreign Relations Authorization Act for Fiscal Years 1994 and 1995 (P.L. 103-236 SEC. 900) to conduct "an investigation into all matters in any way related to any legislation, executive order, regulation, practice, or procedure relating to classified information or granting security clearances" and to submit a final report with recommendations. The Commission's investigation of government secrecy was the first authorized by statute since the Wright Commission on Government Security issued its report in 1957.

The Commission issued its unanimous final report on March 3, 1997.

A major effect of the commission was the declassification of the VENONA project.

Key findings
The Commission's key findings were:

 * Secrecy is a form of government regulation.
 * Excessive secrecy has significant consequences for the national interest when policy makers are not fully informed, the government is not held accountable for its actions, and the public cannot engage in informed debate.
 * Some secrecy is important to minimize inappropriate diffusion of details of weapon systems design and ongoing security operations as well as to allow public servants to secretly consider a variety of policy options without fear of criticism.
 * The best way to ensure that secrecy is respected, and that the most important secrets remain secret, is for secrecy to be returned to its limited but necessary role. Secrets can be protected more effectively if secrecy is reduced overall.
 * Apart from aspects of nuclear energy subject to the Atomic Energy Act, secrets in the federal government are whatever anyone with a stamp decides to stamp secret. This inevitably produces problems where even the President of the United States may make mistakes that might have been avoided with a more open system.
 * A new statute is needed to set forth the principles for what may be declared secret.

Senator Moynihan reported that approximately 400,000 new secrets are created annually at the highest level, Top Secret. That level is defined by law as applying to any secret that, were it to become public, would cause "exceptionally grave damage to the national security." In 1994, it was estimated that the United States government had over 1.5 billion pages of classified material that were at least 25 years old.

In 1995 President Bill Clinton's Executive Order 12958 updated the national security classification and declassification system. This Executive Order established a system to automatically declassify information more than 25 years old, unless the government took discrete steps to continue the classification of a particular document or group of documents.

Cold War secrecy
The Commission findings regarding government secrecy in the early Cold War period have led to a reevaluation of many public perceptions regarding the period. By 1950, the United States government was in possession of information which the American public did not know: proof of a serious attack on American security by the Soviet Union, with considerable assistance from an enemy within. Soviet authorities knew the U.S. government knew. Only the American people were denied this information.

One revelation of the Venona project intercepts is that many Americans who spied for the Soviet Union were never prosecuted. To do so the government would have to reveal what it knew. On 29 May 1946, Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Director J. Edgar Hoover sent a high administration official a memorandum reporting "an enormous Soviet espionage ring in Washington." Undersecretary of State Dean Acheson was (falsely) at the top of the list. Truman distrusted Hoover and suspected Hoover of playing political games. Acheson's inclusion at the top of the list automatically discredited other accusations which were on target, Alger Hiss and Nathan Gregory Silvermaster. In late August or early September 1947, the Army Security Agency informed the FBI it had begun to break into Soviet espionage messages. Truman had never been told of the existence of the Venona project, and always insisted Republicans had trumped up the loyalty issue for political gain.

The prosecutors in the internal-security cases of the 1940s did not know they had not been given all, or even the best government evidence, against the Rosenbergs, and others. The Venona project materials would have been conclusive in establishing the cast of characters in the Soviet spy networks. Government secrecy allowed critics of the Rosenberg and Hiss cases to construct elaborate theories about frame-ups and cover-ups. For years the Rosenbergs' defenders demanded that the government reveal its secrets about the case. When Secrecy Commission forced the disclosure of documents, the secrets revealed the government's case was even stronger. "Over the years," said Ronald Radosh, "the Rosenbergs' defenders have loudly demanded the release of government documents on the case, only to deny the documents' significance once they are made public." As archives of the Cold War are opened, the original case made against Soviet espionage in the United States has received ever more conclusive corroboration.

Loyalty
There is much information within a bureaucracy which could be used to injure the Government, or the national interest if revealed by disloyal persons to hostile nations or, for that matter, to hostile internal elements. It appears that the three-tiered gradation of today, Confidential/ Secret/Top Secret was adopted by the U.S. military from British forces in France in 1917, and was institutionalized with the Espionage Act of 1917. The U.S. Civil Service Commission, established by the Pendleton Act in 1883, was debarring persons relating to "loyalty" as late as 1921.

The Commission Report quotes Max Weber, "Every bureaucracy seeks to increase the superiority of the professionally informed by keeping their knowledge and intentions secret ... Bureaucracy naturally welcomes a poorly informed and hence a powerless parliament—at least insofar as ignorance somehow agrees with the bureaucracy's interests."

In March 1947 President Truman issued Executive Order 9835, establishing the Federal Employee Loyalty Program, providing uniform investigation standards and procedures, and authorizing the creation of Loyalty Review Boards across the Government. The Truman Order—based on the findings of an interdepartmental committee established in 1946—was superseded by President Dwight D. Eisenhower's issuance of Executive Order 10450 in April 1953, which provided that "[t]he appointment of each civilian officer or employee in any department or agency of the Government shall be made subject to an investigation," and made each agency head responsible for ensuring that "the employment and retention in employment of any civilian officer or employee within the department or agency is clearly consistent with the interests of the national security." While abolishing the Truman Order program, including the Loyalty Review Boards within the Civil Service Commission, the new Order also made clear that "the interests of national security require that all persons privileged to be employed in the departments and agencies of the Government, shall be reliable, trustworthy, of good conduct and character, and of complete and unswerving loyalty to the United States."

In this manner, a broader "security" program was established across the Government. The political pressure had increased with the passage of legislation in 1950 "[t]o protect the national security of the United States by permitting the summary suspension of employment of civilian officers and employees of various departments and agencies. ... " In addition, beginning in March 1948, the Attorney General's List was published on a regular basis—with members of organizations included on such a list to be denied employment in the federal government or defense industries as well as the right to a U.S. passport. During the 1952 presidential campaign, Dwight D. Eisenhower promised to root out Communists and other security risks from government and defense industry employment— suggesting that their presence had been tolerated too easily by the Truman administration despite the existence of rules to address "loyalty" concerns. In his first State of the Union address Eisenhower promised a new system "for keeping out the disloyal and the dangerous." Executive Order 10450 soon followed. Senator Joseph McCarthy praised the new Executive Order. The New York Times reported, "The new program will require a new investigation of many thousands of employees previously investigated, as well as many more thousands who have had no security check."

In November 1953, Attorney General Herbert Brownell would allege in a speech that Truman had nominated a Soviet spy—senior Treasury Department official Harry Dexter White—to serve as the U.S. Executive Director of the International Monetary Fund, despite what Brownell said was the President's awareness of White's involvement in Soviet espionage. And on December 3, 1953, President Eisenhower directed that a "blank wall be placed between Dr. J. Robert Oppenheimer and secret data"—marking the beginning of the process that led to the Atomic Energy Commission's suspension of Oppenheimer's security clearance later in December and its 4-to-1 decision on June 28, 1954, against restoring the clearance.

How is this distinct from Populism? --Angr/undefined 18:56, 22 July 2005 (UTC)
 * I can find no references of this as "Popularism" and I have requested to move it to "Popolarismo". This makes more sense as the name stems from the party - popolare. Sillyfolkboy (talk) 16:37, 17 February 2009 (UTC)

 * Could this be added to template Populism? lususromulus —Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.136.21.65 (talk) 10:36, 25 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Probably, but you realise this is the same article that was called "Popularism" right? Personally I think this needs to be expanded unless that isn't possible, in which case maybe just merge into populism. Sillyfolkboy (talk) 22:13, 25 February 2009 (UTC)

Added key Sources
I've added some key sources which Elaborate on Popularism; Il "Popolarismo" and Reforma Statle E Indirizza Politica (1920-1922). In the article and the book, Sturzo elaborates on his idea of popularism.

However, there are problems with these texts. First, the texts are pieces of other texts. Reforma Statle E Indirizza Politica, for example, is one of two books in the PDF. Il "Popolarismo" is similarly a part of a wider text series, given it is only an article. However, the publisher, the Sturzo Institute, divides the article by it's pages and turns them into into images in a gallery - so it's not even in one piece. I'm tempted to collate these and chuck them on the Internet Archive.

The second problem with the texts is they are in Italian. DishevelledD (talk) 08:25, 10 February 2023 (UTC)

Glacier (DC Comics)

Sigrid Nansen is a superhero in American comic books published by DC Comics, first appearing in Super Friends #9 (Dec 1977). Originally the first character to use the name Icemaiden, they replaced the hero known as Ice for a time. They are among the few ice-theme superheroes in the DC Universe. The character is eventually re-introduced during "Infinite Frontier", adopting a new identity as Glacier and identifies as non-binary.

Global Guardians
Sigrid Nansen received their powers as the result of an experiment funded by the Norwegian government. In an attempt to please both their overbearing scientist mother (who constantly belittled them for not having a boyfriend and not being a top scientist) and the Norwegian government, Sigrid reluctantly agreed to the experiments. The goal was to duplicate the abilities of what at the time were a legendary tribe of Ice-people; the experiment was a success, though as a side-effect Sigrid's skin was permanently turned blue. Taking the name Icemaiden, they joined the Global Guardians as their country's representative to that international super-team.

Legends
During the DC miniseries Legends, the people of the United States were turned against all heroes, superheroes, and metahumans; the President even decreed that no costumed hero could operate legally. This did not affect the Global Guardians, however, who worked outside of the U.S. During this time, what Sylvester Pemberton referred to as the "Great Super-Hero Scare" Doctor Mist sent Icemaiden, along with Rising Sun, the Tasmanian Devil, and the Green Flame to Canada to run security for the international Trade Conference. Icemaiden fell victim, however, to the group calling itself Injustice Unlimited, and was hypnotized into serving the villains. This resulted in them traveling to Greenland with Jade and the new Icicle on a mission to find and free Solomon Grundy. In the end, the villains were defeated and Icemaiden regained their free will.

Resignation
Upon the discovery of a real tribe of Ice-people, their princess Tora Olafsdotter (Ice) joined the Global Guardians. This led Sigrid to quit the team.

Justice League
Years later, after Ice had left the Global Guardians, joined the Justice League International, and was killed by the Overmaster, Sigrid re-emerged. They chose to honor the fallen heroine by serving as her replacement in the Justice League.

There were hints of a romantic relationship with their teammate Fire, but this was all part of a plan hatched by Sigrid. Realizing Fire was not coping with Ice's death (and Fire was attempting to control them, much like Sigrid's mother had done growing up), they dressed up to resemble Ice and showed romantic feelings toward Fire. The shock made Fire realize that Ice was gone, and she could not recreate the past. During their time in the JLA, they were disliked and criticized by Guy Gardner, who had also not come to terms with Ice's death.

They left active duty with the League after they and several others were heavily wounded during the attack of the Hyperclan (White Martians). Later recovered, Sigrid resumed their superhero career and is assumed to have eventually joined an unofficial branch of Justice League Europe. That League chapter was, however, infiltrated by the Mist, who apparently lured Icemaiden away and subsequently disguised herself as the blue-skinned hero before killing three League members: Crimson Fox, Amazing Man, and Blue Devil.

In the same story, it was revealed that Mist covertly contacted Icemaiden and informed them of a supposed threat facing their homeland of Norway, and they must defeat the threat without informing anyone until afterwards. Icemaiden left during the middle of the night, and Mist replaced them within the JLE by the next morning. The JLE did not know that Mist replaced Icemaiden until Mist began her attacks against them. Mist informed Crimson Fox that the threat she informed Icemaiden about was not real, and that she had sent Icemaiden on an ultimately fruitless search so that she could disguise herself as Icemaiden and replace them on the team.

One Year Later
After the "Infinite Crisis" storyline, it was revealed that Icemaiden had at some point been abducted by the supervillain Warp, a capture paid for by a mysterious "organ-napper" who turned out to be former film actress Delores Winters. Winters—believed to have been killed decades earlier by the Ultra-Humanite—longed for new flesh to replace her own aging skin and had her personal physician surgically flay the Icemaiden in order to harvest their superpowered skin. Icemaiden did not die, and eventually was placed, comatose, into a hydration womb within a facility of S.T.A.R. Labs. Later, in the same story, the hydration womb is cracked. It is unknown if Icemaiden survived.

It is mentioned in this story that Icemaiden has alabaster skin, although they had blue skin in all of their prior appearances save for their appearances in Extreme Justice.

Delores was recently killed in a battle with Batwoman, and her corpse was taken by the Justice League. It is unknown if they will be able to remove the skin.

Infinite Frontier
Sigrid returned in the winter holiday special "Tis the Season to be Freezin" in Andrew Wheeler and Meghan Hetrick's "Break the Ice" story and takes the codename of Glacier. Sigrid is referred to using they/them pronouns at the end. Andrew Wheeler stated on Twitter that Sigrid was nonbinary.

Relationships
Sigrid is one of the few bisexual superheroes operating in the DC Universe. They were flirtatious with Nuklon during their time together in the JLA, and then later became involved with Olivia Reynolds, the ex-girlfriend of Hal Jordan.

They also showed interest in Judaism during their conversations with Nuklon.

After Tis the Season to Be Freezin Sigrid is now known to be nonbinary.

Powers and abilities
Sigrid Nansen possesses abilities surrounding ice, snow and cold. Their powers are not natural, as they are the result of scientific experiments. Whether it was a success because they had a dormant gene is unknown. Icemaiden can control small quantities of snow or ice in varying degrees, such as projecting ice shields and icicles from their body. These capabilities are also closely linked to Sigrid's mental state.

Nasalis muscle

The nasalis muscle is a sphincter-like muscle of the nose. It has a transverse part and an alar part. It compresses the nasal cartilages, and can "flare" the nostrils. It can be used to test the facial nerve (VII), which supplies it.

Structure
The nasalis muscle covers the nasal cartilages of the lower surface of the nose. It consists of two parts, transverse and alar:
 * The transverse part (compressor naris muscle) arises from the maxilla, above and lateral to the incisive fossa. Its fibers proceed upward and medially, expanding into a thin aponeurosis which is continuous on the bridge of the nose with that of the muscle of the opposite side, and with the aponeurosis of the procerus muscle. It compresses the nostrils and may completely close them.
 * The alar part (dilator naris muscle) arises from the maxilla over the lateral incisor and inserts into the greater alar cartilage. Its medial fibres tend to blend with the depressor septi nasi muscle, and has been described as part of that muscle.

Nerve supply
Like all the other muscles of facial expression, the nasalis muscle is supplied by the facial nerve (VII).

Function
The nasalis muscle compresses the nasal cartilages. It may also "flare" the nostrils.

Cleft lip and cleft palate
The nasalis muscle is one of the key muscles not formed or inserted correctly with cleft lip and cleft palate deformity. The head of the transverse part needs to be identified during reconstructive surgery so that it can be surgically sutured (connected to) the nasal septum. The origin at the maxilla may also be repositioned for better symmetry.

Facial nerve testing
Due to it being superficial, the nasalis muscle can be used to test the facial nerve. Specifically, it can be used to test the zygomatic branches.

Cheap Trick (1977 album)

Cheap Trick is the debut studio album by the American rock band Cheap Trick, released in 1977. It was released under Epic Records and produced by Jack Douglas, a frequent collaborator of the band. The album did not reach the Billboard 200 chart but did "bubble under" at number 207 for one week in April 1977.

Overview
Most of the songs have a more raw sound akin to hard rock bands of the period compared to the group's later more polished power pop style, and the song lyrics deal with more extreme subject matter than later albums. For instance, "The Ballad of TV Violence (I'm Not the Only Boy)" is about serial killer Richard Speck, "Daddy Should Have Stayed in High School" is about an ephebophile, and "Oh, Candy" is about a photographer friend of the band, Marshall Mintz, who committed suicide.

Critical reception
The album was generally well-received by critics with favorable comparisons to the Beatles and the Who, with critics likening Robin Zander's vocals to John Lennon's. Charles M. Young, writing for Rolling Stone, said the album had a "heavy emphasis on basics with a strain of demented violence" and that the lyrics "run the gamut of lust, confusion and misogyny, growing out of rejection and antiauthoritarian sentiments about school—all with an element of wit." Ira Robbins of Trouser Press noted the album's "wall-of-guitar sound" and said the band was "sarcastic, smart, nasty, powerful, tight, casual, and destined for something great." Juliana Hatfield, speaking to Melody Maker in 1993, praised Cheap Trick as "the quintessential rock record" and one that "entertains all the way through".

Track listing
All songs written by Rick Nielsen except where noted.

Note: The original vinyl record had "Side A" printed on the label on one side and "Side 1" printed on the other, a humorous touch reflecting the band's conviction that they didn't have any "B material". The placement of the track listing on the jacket seemed to indicate "Hot Love" was the first track on the album. When the album was released on CD in the mid-1980s, it followed the same sequence. However, when the album was re-issued in 1998, the band's preferred sequence was used, placing "Side 1" before "Side A" and included five bonus tracks:

Personnel

 * Cheap Trick
 * Robin Zander – lead vocals, rhythm guitar
 * Rick Nielsen – lead guitar, mandocello, vocals
 * Tom Petersson – bass guitar, vocals
 * Bun E. Carlos – drums

 * Technical
 * Jack Douglas – producer
 * Jay Messina – engineer
 * Sam Ginsberg – assistant engineer
 * Paula Scher – cover design
 * Jim Houghton – photography

Cover versions
In the documentary End of the Century: The Story of the Ramones, Johnny Ramone stated that the guitar riff in "The KKK Took My Baby Away" was inspired by the riff in "He's a Whore".

Big Black released a cover of "He's a Whore" as a single with a picture sleeve in the style of Cheap Trick's album cover. The back of the sleeve was a similar take on the German band Kraftwerk and their song, "The Model". Big Black's version was included as a bonus track on the CD release of their second album, Songs About Fucking.

The Methadones covered "He's a Whore" on 21st Century Power Pop Riot, an album of covers released in 2006. Concrete Blonde covered "Mandocello" on Still in Hollywood.

Concrete security

In cryptography, concrete security or exact security is a practice-oriented approach that aims to give more precise estimates of the computational complexities of adversarial tasks than polynomial equivalence would allow. It quantifies the security of a cryptosystem by bounding the probability of success for an adversary running for a fixed amount of time. Security proofs with precise analyses are referred to as concrete.

Traditionally, provable security is asymptotic: it classifies the hardness of computational problems using polynomial-time reducibility. Secure schemes are defined to be those in which the advantage of any computationally bounded adversary is negligible. While such a theoretical guarantee is important, in practice one needs to know exactly how efficient a reduction is because of the need to instantiate the security parameter - it is not enough to know that "sufficiently large" security parameters will do. An inefficient reduction results either in the success probability for the adversary or the resource requirement of the scheme being greater than desired.

Concrete security parametrizes all the resources available to the adversary, such as running time and memory, and other resources specific to the system in question, such as the number of plaintexts it can obtain or the number of queries it can make to any oracles available. Then the advantage of the adversary is upper bounded as a function of these resources and of the problem size. It is often possible to give a lower bound (i.e. an adversarial strategy) matching the upper bound, hence the name exact security.

Examples
Concrete security estimates have been applied to cryptographic algorithms:

 * In 1996, schemes for digital signatures based on the RSA and Rabin cryptosystems were proposed, which were shown to be approximately as difficult to break as the original cryptosystems.
 * In 1997, some notions of concrete security (left-or-right indistinguishability, real-or-random indistinguishability, find-then-guess security, and semantic-security) for symmetric encryption algorithms were proved approximately equivalent in various block cipher modes of operation such as CBC, CTR, and XOR (a stateless variant of CBC).
 * In 2017, a thesis showed that lattice point enumeration and lattice block reduction algorithms could be used to attack lattice-based cryptography.
 * In 2021, "guess-and-determine" and "guess-and-decode"-type attacks were demonstrated against a proposed pseudorandom generator in NC0, where instances with parameter values previously claimed to have 128-bit security were solved in about $$2^{78}$$ operations.

In addition, a software tool named the "Foundational Cryptography Framework", which embeds into Coq, is able to formally verify proofs of concrete security. For example, it is able to verify the concrete security of ElGamal encryption.

Islamic and National Revolution Movement of Afghanistan

The Islamic Revolution Movement (Harakat-i-Inqilab-i-Islami, ) is a traditionalist Islamist political party. It was once one of the biggest Afghan mujahideen factions fighting against Soviet forces during the Soviet–Afghan War. Mohammad Nabi Mohammadi was the leader of the group at the time.

History
The movement was one of the seven Peshawar parties. As a mujahideen group, it operated in the southern and eastern Afghan provinces of Kandahar, Helmand, Uruzgan, Ghazni, Paktika, and Wardak. However, it was not as strong or influential a group as Gulbuddin Hekmatyar's Hezb-i-Islami or Ahmad Shah Massoud's forces. It became recognized as the second most important of the seven parties in 1981 (after Jamiat-i Islami), but support was eroded by 1984. The group lacked a clear political aim other than Afghan traditionalism and Islamism.

During the 1990s the group fell into decay. Initially it joined the government of Burhanuddin Rabbani, but in 1993 left and forbade its members from taking part in the ongoing battles. When the Taliban emerged, Mohammadi dissolved the group and urged its members to join it. Some of its members had international inspirations, going to Kuwait to fight against Ba'athist Iraq during the Gulf War. The movement was also weakened by the founding of the breakaway National and Islamic Prosperity Party of Afghanistan, formed by Maulawi Muhammad Osman Salekzada, which captured much of the HIIs following in northern Afghanistan.

After the death of its leader, Mohammed Nabi Mohamadi, in Pakistan, the leadership of the movement was taken over by his son Ahmad Nabi Muhammadi. Under its new leadership the name of the movement was changed to Islamic and National Revolution Movement of Afghanistan (Harakat-e Inqilab-e Islami wa Melli-ye Afghanistan). In April 2005, it joined the National Understanding Front of Afghanistan, a coalition of 12 opposition parties. The front did however not last long.

In 2015, the party named a new leader: Mawlawi Qalam U Din Mohmand. Harakat members created public attention when it held a gathering to commemorate the late Taliban founder, Mullah Omar (who was a Harakat member during the Soviet-Afghan War), provoking a wave of outrage. The party has been relaunched a few times, and in its latest interviews emphasised "peace" as the party's priority. A member of Harakat's ulema council asked the Taliban to leave the traitorous and hypocrit[ic]al country of Pakistan."

 * what patch???-- ♫Greatorangepumpkin♫ T 20:08, 2 September 2010 (UTC)

Pronunciation
I added pronunciation. I hear Kuznetsova so often mispronounced as KuznEtsova, so I thought I need to make people aware - its' "KuznetsOva". If you want rephrase it, it's OK with me. --Atitarev (talk) 05:50, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

Request for wider input on discussion at WikiProject Tennis
There is a long, ongoing discussion at WP:Tennis about the tournament tables found in tennis articles on English-language Wikipedia (e.g., this type of table). The discussion is about whether the "official sponsored name" of a tournament - such as Pacific Life Open - or another tournament name without the sponsor - such as Indian Wells Masters - must be used in those articles. Please join the discussion here. Thanks. Tennis expert (talk) 09:30, 4 September 2008 (UTC)

Doubles
Her doubles performance at the bottom needs to be updated. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.52.172.78 (talk) 20:56, 6 June 2009 (UTC)

Transliteration note
This may need help from someone familiar with romanised Russian, but I'm 99% sure that Cyrillic [кс] is invariably transliterated as /ks/ because of the phoneme by phoneme/grapheme by grapheme structure. The system of using /x/ in English tends to happen as a result of English as a language having adopted the name of a certain person/place, in which case it is further Anglicised with additional features. Svetlana's full name has not filtered into English as such and therefore I believe that her middle name should be presented as: Aleksandrovna. I may be totally mistaken and Russian may well use /x/ on all [кс] transcriptions; I know that this is not the case with Macedonian/Serbian, nor with Bulgarian, all the mentioned produce such names as Aleksandra and Roksanda, with words such as taksi.

Report to WP:Copyright problems
I've just been looking into whether this might be a backwards copy, as the source struck me as being written in Wikipedia style and format. Looking through the history, the source seems similar to a late 2010 version of the article and covers up to the end of 2010. I've only looked at the family life section in detail so far but it seems to have gradually evolved, suggested at WP:CPAA as an indication of a backwards copy.

Earlier and much shorter versions of the article contain some of the same text as the source, and the history shows additions at various different times. This edit from 2004 when the article was a stub introduces the start of the section, copyedited here in 2006 to much the same wording the source has. "Kuznetsova also tried out cycling in her early years, but it bored her..." was added here in 2005, age she went to Spain was changed fron 15 to the current 13 in 2007.

There are no archived versions of the site in archive.org so the site may be recent. January ( talk ) 21:50, 20 March 2011 (UTC)
 * I contacted the admin of this site. He will tell me whether it is self-written or from Wikipedia copied.-- ♫Greatorangepumpkin♫ T 16:42, 21 March 2011 (UTC)

Personal Relationship
The information in the section is wrong and need to be removed.

" Kuznetsova, a 24-year-old Ukrainian immigrant, was diagnosed with kidney failure in March, not long after she and Solodovnik, a 26-year-old Russian immigrant, got engaged."

the story was dated on August 9, 2003, and Kuznetsova was only 18 at the time not 24, she has never been married, she is Russian not Ukrainian, and she is not an immigrant living in United States, I believe they are different person, and I would suggest to possibly remove it as such event has never happened to Svetlana Kuznetsova, the tennis player. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Shetachai (talk • contribs) 17:19, 21 July 2011 (UTC)

Craigton, Glasgow

Craigton (Baile Chreig) is a residential suburb in the southwest of the city of Glasgow, Scotland. Located approximately 3 mi from the city centre, it is bordered by Bellahouston Park to the south and Halfway to the west, with Cardonald beyond.

The area was historically farming land for Govan, which is nearby to the north across the M8 motorway and Inverclyde Line railway tracks. A pedestrian underpass, previously a road on which city trams and buses operated, leads north from Craigton under the motorway onto Craigton Road, which is within the Drumoyne neighbourhood. Historically the Craigton Road area was occupied by Craigton Farm, while the estate of Craigton House was acquired to build the Craigton neighbourhood (developed for housing between the World Wars, as were Drumoyne and other nearby developments like the contrasting Moorepark and Mosspark projects).

The area has an eponymous primary school opened in 1910 (once attended by artist George Wyllie), a small industrial estate and a number of shops lining Paisley Road West. Craigton Cemetery is immediately to the west of Craigton and was opened in 1873. The cemetery grounds contain a crematorium, which opened in 1957. To the east is Helen Street police station (a modern replacement for Govan's previous offices in Orkney Street) built on the site of the White City Stadium, used for greyhound racing and motorcycle speedway; Ibrox railway station was slightly further east, also within walking distance of Craigton until its closure in the late 1960s, about the same time as the stadium.

The triangular parcel of land between Paisley Road West and Mosspark Boulevard and west of Bellahouston Park has been occupied by housing since the 1920s. It was originally fields belonging to a farm called Wearieston so was occasionally known as such in the years following its construction, but the name has since fallen out of use.

Since 2017, Craigton has fallen within the Pollokshields ward under Glasgow City Council, having been in the Govan ward for the decade prior. There was also a ward named Craigton, but the neighbourhood of that name was never part of it, and in 2017 it was re-named to the more accurate title of Cardonald.

Hello, I thought that the article contained a good amount of useful information. I would only have a few outside comments: I don't know if it is grammatically correct and it just sounds strange but the sentence that begins "The Asians..." that just seems odd to me. Maybe something more like "Many Asian cultures" or "People from Asian countries...", also I think it would be great if you talked more about the specific medicinal properties of ginger and how they relate to the plant compounds it contains. For example, ginger is classified as a stimulant as well as a diaphoretic which is why it is good for promoting (stimulating) digestion and for inducing sweating which helps to lower a fever. In Chinese medicine Ginger is said to have a warming effect. It also contains anti inflammatory properties which are also useful in external applications.Ginger is also a stimulate whose benefits help aid in the digestion of food. Similar to anti inflammatory medicines such a Malox or Tums, ginger is naturally breaks down the food in your body. Ginger also induces sweating helping one to get rid of a fever. What weather does the ginger plant like? Also, I thought the ginger along with sushi was not only decorative but to help cleanse your palate in between servings.

I just found an informative site that talks about the metabolic components of ginger and the phenolic compounds involved that help fight free radical formation in the body which may explain much of its usefulness in fighting disease. Free radicals can cause damage to cells and lead to tissue breakdown.

Bartizan

A bartizan (an alteration of bratticing), also called a guerite, garita, or échauguette, or spelled bartisan, is an overhanging, wall-mounted turret projecting from the walls of late medieval and early-modern fortifications from the early 14th century up to the 18th century. Most frequently found at corners, they protected a warder and enabled him to see his surroundings. Bartizans generally are furnished with oillets or arrow slits. The turret was usually supported by stepped masonry corbels and could be round, polygonal or square.

Bartizans were incorporated into many notable examples of Scottish Baronial architecture. In the architecture of Aberdeen, the new Town House, built in 1868–74, incorporates bartizans in the West Tower.

Monkey Wrench (song)

"Monkey Wrench" is a song by American rock band Foo Fighters. It was released as the lead single from their second album, The Colour and the Shape. The lyrics chronicle the 1997 disintegration of singer/songwriter Dave Grohl's four-year marriage to Jennifer Youngblood. The song peaked at number 9 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock Tracks chart, and at number 12 on the UK Singles Chart.

Composition
"Monkey Wrench" is an up-tempo rock song, written in the key of B major in 4/4 time signature with a tempo of 174 bpm. It is performed with distorted guitars in Drop-D tuning. The song opens with a four bar phrase of a descending guitar line over a chordal riff of B5/F#5/E5 repeated twice. After a single bar of 3/4 time, the main verse enters with vocals and a choppier, palm-muted version of the intro riff. A pre-chorus using an E5 power chord then gives way to a chord-based chorus of B5/G#5/F#5/E5/F#5/E5/C5/B5.

Lyrically, Grohl has said that the song is "about realising that you are the source of all of the problems in a relationship and you love the other person so much, you want to free them of the problem, which is actually yourself."

Critical reception
"Monkey Wrench" is widely regarded as one of the Foo Fighters' best songs. In 2020, Kerrang ranked the song number three on their list of the 20 greatest Foo Fighters songs, and in 2021, American Songwriter ranked the song number seven on their list of the 10 greatest Foo Fighters songs.

Music video
The music video was directed by the band's lead singer/songwriter, Dave Grohl. In the video, Grohl arrives at his apartment with groceries in hand, but finds the door secured from inside by the chain latch when he tries to open it. Looking through the peephole, he finds black-clad duplicates of the band members playing the song. The rest of the band soon joins him at the door, peeking in through its mail slot, and eventually start trying to force their way in as the duplicate Grohl taunts them and spits on the peephole. He holds the door shut against the band's efforts for a while, but they eventually break in only to find the apartment suddenly empty. They look out the window and see the duplicates fleeing on foot through a courtyard, then close the door and finish the song using the abandoned instruments. As the video ends, a third set of bandmates is listening at the door outside, creating a recursive situation.

When Grohl is in the elevator heading up to his apartment, a muzak version of the Foo Fighters song "Big Me," performed by The Moog Cookbook, can be heard.

The music video for the song was the first to feature Taylor Hawkins on drums, although the actual drum track is performed by Grohl.

USS Detroit (AOE-4)

USS Detroit (AOE-4) was the fourth and last Sacramento-class fast combat support ship built for the United States Navy. She was laid down on 29 November 1966 by Puget Sound Naval Shipyard, Bremerton, Washington; launched 21 June 1969; and commissioned on 28 March 1970. She is the fifth United States Navy ship named after Detroit, Michigan, the largest city in the state of Michigan, and the river of the same name.

Detroit served for 35 years operating primarily with the U.S. 6th Fleet in the Mediterranean Sea and Persian Gulf regions.

1970–1980
After her initial shakedown cruise, Detroit departed Bremerton for her first operational home port, Newport, Rhode Island, rounding the horn of South America en route. In March 1971, she was involved in a minor collision with a US Navy oiler off the coast of South Carolina. Shortly thereafter, Detroit deployed for six months of extended operations with the 6th Fleet, returning to Newport in December 1971. In April 1972 the Detroit escorted USS Saratoga CV-60 to the southern tip of Africa on her way to support the war in Vietnam. Detroit refueled Saratoga then returned to home port. Detroit made her second deployment with 6th Fleet to the Mediterranean on 1 December 1972, returning to Newport in July of the following year. On 12 December 1973, while the ship was undergoing repairs and upkeep in Newport, Detroit suffered an explosion in her after engine room exhaust stack which caused extensive material damage.

A shore establishment realignment led to Detroit's home port shift to Norfolk, Virginia in January 1974. Detroit sailed from Norfolk 14 July 1974, en route to her third Mediterranean deployment in support of 6th Fleet operations. In addition to her normal taskings, she participated in contingency operations related to the Cyprus crisis, completing this task in December 1974 before returning to Norfolk.

Detroit sailed for her fourth Mediterranean deployment on 19 August 1975 and completed over 200 replenishments before returning to Norfolk on 28 January 1976.

On 13 July 1976, Detroit sailed north to commence her first shipyard overhaul at Bath Iron Works in Maine. The NATO Sea Sparrow missile system and new communications capabilities were added prior to her return to Norfolk in July 1977. Detroit sailed from Norfolk on her fifth Mediterranean deployment on 4 April 1978, returning on 26 October 1978. She and her CH-46 helicopter detachment conducted 232 underway and vertical replenishments during this deployment, serving in a Task Group led by USS Forrestal(CV-59). After another five-month Mediterranean deployment in 1979, Detroit returned to Norfolk for a short six-month turn-around in preparation for her seventh Mediterranean deployment, commencing on 14 July 1980. A Suez Canal transit followed National Week exercises, and the new routine became the support of U.S. 7th Fleet’s Indian Ocean Battle Group operating in the vicinity of the Persian Gulf. Returning through the Suez, Detroit proceeded to service 6th Fleet units prior to visiting Lisbon, Portugal, in late November. Detroit returned to Norfolk on 11 December 1980.

1981–1989
On 10 June 1981 Detroit ran aground when she veered from the dredged channel and ran aground in shallow water in Hampton Roads while the ship was entering port. She was refloated four days later after fuel and weapons were removed. There was no apparent damage to ship or injuries to the crew, but the commanding officer was relieved of command for the incident. Detroit departed Norfolk on 25 June 1981 for her eighth Mediterranean deployment. She serviced 6th Fleet and NATO units and participated in the missile exercises in the Gulf of Sidra, when two Libyan aircraft were shot down by F-14 Tomcats from USS Nimitz (CVN-68). Detroit returned to Norfolk on 8 November 1981.

In January 1982, Detroit began her second shipyard overhaul at Norfolk Shipbuilding and Dry Dock Company’s Berkeley Yard in Chesapeake, Virginia. The focus of this overhaul was on the engineering plant and the crew’s living quarters. Her defensive capability was also upgraded by the addition of two 20 mm Phalanx CIWS Mark 15 guns. Detroit left the yard in January 1983.

On 20 October 1983, Detroit departed for deployment with the 6th Fleet. While in the Mediterranean, Detroit was the principal combat logistics force ship supporting U.S. and Allied units of the Multi-National Peacekeeping Force, in Beirut, Lebanon. Throughout the height of the crisis, Detroit provided logistical support to two carrier battle groups, the USS New Jersey (BB-62) battle group and the deployed Marine Amphibious Ready Group. On 9 January 1984 Detroit suffered a fuel fire in her forced-draft blower while moored at Souda Bay, Crete. Some crew members were treated for smoke inhalation. When she returned to Norfolk on 2 May 1984, Detroit had completed 301 replenishments, a new ship’s record.

In February 1985, Detroit completed an extensive three-month repair availability. From July through October 1985, she participated in fleet exercises in the Caribbean Sea, as well as in "Ocean Safari 85" operating above the Arctic Circle in Norway's Vestfjord. During these operations, Detroit encountered a severe storm consisting of extreme cold and heavy seas. As a result, Detroit suffered the loss of a large section of main deck railing, several deck fixtures and the ship’s solid brass bell. Detroit put in for repairs in Dunoon, Scotland before continuing operations. In August 1985, Detroit successfully completed the first Operational Propulsion Plant Examination given to an AOE by the Commander-in-Chief, Atlantic Fleet (CINCLANTFLT) Propulsion Examination Board.

In March 1986, Detroit departed Norfolk for her tenth deployment with the 6th Fleet in the Mediterranean. She supported three carrier operations off the coast of Libya in March and April 1986. In September 1986, she returned to Norfolk. Beginning in the fall of 1986 the Detroit was once again sent in for an overhaul following her deployment. Starting in Virginia at Norfolk shipbuilding, she went through what was supposed to be a rapid turn around, with primary work on her engines. Following the departure, with numerous delays, she headed for Guantanamo Bay, Cuba for exercises and crew training. While there she suffered a major malfunction to her engines that would hamper her from 1987 - 1990. She was sent to Philadelphia for more work on her engines that lasted from 1987 -1988. Upon her return to Norfolk, she suffered a fatality in her engine room with a sailor being scalded with live steam. The summer of 1988 found Detroit back in the European theater, participating in Exercise Teamwork 88 replenishing U.S. and NATO allies in the Norwegian fjords.

After officially changing homeports in October 1989, Detroit was underway in support of law enforcement operations in the Caribbean Sea.

1990–1999
In May 1990, Detroit arrived at Naval Weapons Station Earle, Leonardo, New Jersey where she was homeported until decommissioning in 2005.

In August 1990, Detroit deployed to the Mediterranean for the 11th time since commissioning, but was diverted to the Red Sea in response to Iraq's invasion of Kuwait. She remained on station in the Red Sea through the remainder of the year.

On 17 January 1991, Operation Desert Storm commenced with Detroit as one of two fast combat support ships on station. Detroit's crew worked non-stop for the remaining three months of what ultimately became a nine-month deployment. Detroit commenced a six-month dry docked phased maintenance availability in May 1991 at Philadelphia Naval Shipyard.

In May 1992, Detroit returned to 6th Fleet in support of MED 2-92. This deployment proved to be remarkably successful for Detroit and her crew. Detroit participated in the insertion and retrieval of United States Army and Navy Special Forces during the Exercise Ellipse Bravo, and rescue efforts to the TCG Muavenet, a Turkish warship, after it was struck by a missile from the USS Saratoga.

Detroit returned to Philadelphia Naval Shipyard for a dry docked phased maintenance availability in July 1993. Shipyard repairs were completed in January 1994 and the ship immediately commenced work-ups for her next deployment.

On 20 October 1994, Detroit was underway for her 13th Mediterranean deployment. Prior to arriving in the Mediterranean, the ship was tasked to take station in the Arabian Sea in support of U.S. Naval Forces. Detroit returned to the 6th Fleet in December 1994. She remained in the Mediterranean and Adriatic Seas, providing logistics support for the remainder of the deployment.

On 22 November 1996, Detroit deployed with the USS Theodore Roosevelt (CVN-71) battle group for her 14th Mediterranean deployment. Detroit performed operations in the Adriatic Sea, as well as transiting the Suez Canal, joining the U.S. 5th Fleet in support of Operation Southern Watch. Additionally, she participated in exercise "Inspired Siren 2-97" and a variety of other multi-national exercises. Detroit returned to Earle, New Jersey on 22 May 1997. She was awarded a Navy Unit Commendation during this deployment.

From July through November 1997, Detroit underwent a four-month phased maintenance availability, which extended the life of her propulsion plant at least another ten years. Detroit earned the Commander, Naval Surface Force, U.S. Atlantic Fleet 1997 Battle Efficiency Award and the 1997 Chief of Naval Operations Ship-Helo Safety Award.

Upon completion of the basic phase of training in preparation for her next deployment in support of the USS Enterprise (CVN-65) battle group Detroit then known as the "Dirty D" deployed for her 15th Mediterranean/Persian Gulf Deployment in November 1998. Responding to a national crisis, she sped her way from Earle, New Jersey to the Persian Gulf to complete the fastest transit in combat logistics force history. Detroit was key in Operation Desert Fox by providing ammunition, combat stores, fresh fruits and vegetables, and fuel to battle group units participating in the operation. On Thanksgiving Day, Detroit had the pleasure of hosting the Chief of Naval Operations for a brief visit while in port at Jebel Ali. During the deployment, Detroit was notified that she was awarded four individual "E’s" for excellence during 1998 in supply and logistics, mission area excellence, engineering and damage control, and operations and communications - a clean sweep in all mission areas. In May 1999, Detroit returned to her homeport.

On 8 November 1999, Detroit began a four-month docking phased availability at Philadelphia Naval Shipyard.

2000–2005
On 27 August 2000, Detroit was involved in a collision with USS Nicholson (DD-982) approximately 100 miles off the Virginia Capes. Damage to both ships was minor.

Detroit deployed with the Enterprise battle group to the Persian Gulf 2 October 2003 and returned to her homeport 1 March 2004. The USS Detroit was proclaimed as the Grand Champion of Fleet Week 2004 in New York City, New York on May 30, 2004. The Culinary Competition was held on board the USS Intrepid at the Sea, Air and Space Museum – Technology Hall. On Memorial Day, 2004, NBC Studios invited the, “Fighting Tiger,” for a - first ever in history - worldwide showing on television during the TODAY Show. The hosts were Ms. Anne Curry and Ms. Katie Couric. TEAM MEMBERS for USS DETROIT (AOE-4), CAPTAIN – CS1 (SW) Nimely, SOUS - CS2 (SW) Augustin, MAITRE’ DI - CS3 (SW) McAloon, TOURNANT - MM3 Davis, CREW – PCSN Stanbery, Mrs. Stanbery and EXECUTIVE CHEF – CSCS (SW/SS) Mongiello.

SPECIAL Judges were Michael Stern – President and CEO of the Fisher Center, Ralph Slane – V.P. of the NY Navy League, RADM Jeffrey Cassias of COMSUBGRU 10 and Colonel Thomas Cariker of SPAMGTF-10.

Detroit was decommissioned on 17 February 2005. She was towed by USNS Apache to the inactive ships maintenance facility at Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

Detroit was brought to Port of Brownsville, Texas for final disposal in October 2005. The remains of the ship were sent to a scrap heap in Mexico.

Detroit's emblem was constructed by a member of the ship's pre-commissioning crew. This was the rationale:

1. A profile of the first Detroit 2. A flaming mine to symbolize ordnance 3. A wheat-filled cornucopia to symbolize provisions 4. A fuel valve to symbolize petroleum products 5. Electron paths to symbolize the nuclear era 6. Five stars to represent the five ships named Detroit named in honor of the City of Detroit, Michigan 7. The ship's motto, Superare Optimum; "To Surpass the Finest."

The first Detroit was a 19-gun sloop captured from the British in the Battle of Lake Erie during the War of 1812. Her black hull and white sails are set against a background of light blue sky and deep blue sea. The symbols for ordnance, provisions, and petroleum products are set along the electron paths that symbolize the modern nuclear age. These symbols reflect the mission of the fast combat support ship: to support naval forces at sea in the theater of operations.
