Colin Newman

Colin John Newman (born 16 September 1954) is an English musician, record producer and record label owner. He is best known as the primary vocalist and songwriter for the post-punk band Wire.

Early life
Newman was born in Salisbury, Wiltshire in 1954 and grew up in Newbury, Berkshire. He later attended the Watford School of Art. His family is Jewish.

Music career
In 1976 Newman formed the band Wire and was its main songwriter, singer and guitarist. Their first performance was on 19 January 1977 at the London nightclub Roxy. At the start, the band was considered a part of London's punk rock scene but later reached critical acclaim for their massive influence on post-punk, new wave and alternative rock. When the band temporarily split in 1980, Newman pursued a solo career. His first solo album, A-Z, was released in 1980 on the Beggar's Banquet record label. The album veered from extremely skewed pop to more mainstream numbers, such as "Order for Order", which was compared by some to Gary Numan. A track from the demos for this LP (but not included on the original vinyl release), "Not Me", was covered by This Mortal Coil on their It'll End in Tears LP; This Mortal Coil then covered the A-Z track "Alone" on their second album Filigree & Shadow. Newman's second LP, the entirely instrumental Provisionally Entitled the Singing Fish, in which all the tracks were titled for numbered fish, was released on the 4AD Records label in 1981. A third LP, Not To, which along with original compositions reworked a number of tracks originally written for Wire, was released in 1982 on 4AD.

Following this, Newman travelled to India to collect sound recordings before rejoining Wire in 1984.

In 1986, another solo LP, Commercial Suicide, was released on the Crammed Discs label. A massive change in style for Newman, the album is reflective and highly orchestrated. His next LP, It Seems, followed a similar path, albeit with far more use of sequencers – something Newman would continue to work with for a number of years. Both Crammed albums featured Malka Spigel who has been included in all subsequent solo and collaborative work.

Newman's only other de facto solo outing was the mid-1990s release Bastard, an almost entirely instrumental release with tracks largely built from guitar loops and samples. Released on his own label, Swim ~, the first pressing of the album was packaged with a free copy of Newman's four-track Voice EP. Despite Newman's name being on the cover, he says these releases, along with several others on Swim ~, are essentially collaborative efforts with his wife and musical partner, Malka Spigel.

Newman's song "Alone" made an appearance in the 1991 film The Silence of the Lambs in a scene in which the character Buffalo Bill is sewing in a basement. This song was also covered by This Mortal Coil on their Filigree & Shadow LP.

Newman has produced, arranged and mixed various other artists. These include Virgin Prunes, Parade Ground, Minimal Compact, Alain Bashung, Silo & Lobe on the production and arrangement side and Hawkwind, Dead Man Ray, Fennesz, Polysics and Celebricide on the mix side. He has also mixed all new Wire releases since 2000.

Since 2004, Newman has worked with Githead, a quartet composed of Newman, Spigel, Max Franken, and Robin Rimbaud. Newman has run the Pinkflag label for Wire since 2000. Immersion re-emerged in 2016. Newman also re-released his first three solo albums on Swim ~ sub-label Sentient Sonics in 2016.

Talk:Signs Gospel

[Untitled]
"The contemporary scholar of the Johannine community Raymond E. Brown identifies three layers of text in the Fourth Gospel" So it tells us, but doesn't identify what those layers are. Waffle in the text that needs to be cited or sourced or quoted is note a standard template. --Wetman 01:25, 13 July 2005 (UTC)

Good point. I will work on it.--Melissa

Most of this article is original research, irrelevant nonsense, and amateur thinking. It barely resembles any of the academic thinking on the subject and wildly contradicts several of the references given. I intend to correct this. --Clinkophonist 19:48, 11 December 2005 (UTC)

Missing the essentials
The Wikipedia reader needs to hear about the fundamental questions: What is it about the text of canonical Gospels that leads some scholars to posit a "Signs gospel"? Is John the only text concerned? Who first suggested that such a tradition must underlie the familiar text?

Taken together, the writers of the current article are so anxious to announce an uncharacterized "dispute" and repeat "hypothetical" that the actual material of the article is by-passed. If I were the kind of person who pastes "clean up" notices, this article is a bumper that needs such a sticker.--Wetman 06:56, 20 September 2006 (UTC)

"John", John and the author of John
Notice how the use of John meaninmg the Gospel is arranged to slide together with John the author in the following excerpt, so that the reader is not permitted to distinguish between author and text:
 * "The Signs Gospel is one of the hypothetical source texts for the Gospel of John which textual criticism supposes to exist. It is now widely agreed that John draws upon a tradition of miracles which is substantially independent of the three synoptic gospels, even if its author(s) knew of them. Whether this tradition is real or invented by the author, the hypothetical text resulting from it on which John drew is known as the Signs Gospel.

Genuine neutrality is restored by the standard convention of using italics for titles thus: "the hypothetical text resulting from it on which the author of John drew..." Listen carefully to the ensuing arguments for not employing italics. --Wetman 10:11, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

"Later scholarship" unspecified referent: "this community"
"They argue that the disciple who formed this community was both a historical person and a companion of Jesus Christ." The community in question is presumably the one mentioned In the title of the attached reference. However, since "this community" is missing any prior referent in the text, it has no clear meaning. Michael (talk) 03:12, 1 September 2019 (UTC)

miracles of Jesus vs. Miracles of Jesus
Hi, here is conflict in using "miracles of Jesus" and "the source named Miracles of Jesus".

Could it be resolve?

Thanks you very much. 31.30.172.61 (talk) 00:39, 21 January 2023 (UTC)
 * There isn't a conflict between those being entirely separate things in the English language. This article is very badly written, but that isn't even a minor problem. — Llywelyn II   12:45, 3 May 2024 (UTC)

Bultmann Section Missing Citation
the final sentence in the "Bultmann" section of the page is lacking any sort of citation, as noted by the footnote. I can't find any evidence that Bultmann had heresy proceedings instituted against him despite his controversial beliefs. Is it OK to remove that sentence at this time given its lack of supporting evidence? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Southernlegal (talk • contribs) 18:59, 13 April 2023 (UTC)

So what happened?
Did the actual content of the article get removed at some point? or has it always been missing its actual content?

There's no explanation of Beloved Disciple, the Miracles of Jesus 'tradition', or what makes it distinct from the synoptic gospels... all of which are fairly basic for the topic. — Llywelyn II   12:48, 3 May 2024 (UTC)

Sitakunda

Sitakunda or Sitakunda Town (সীতাকুণ্ড শহর) is an administrative centre and the sole municipality (Paurashava) of Sitakunda Upazila in Chattogram District, located in Chattogram Division, Bangladesh. Sitakunda is famous for the Chandranath Temple and Hindus temple. There is a hot water spring 5 km to the north of the town.

Administration
The Sitakunda town has 9 wards divided into 22 mahallas, and a population of 36,650 distributed to 6,914 units of households (average household size 5.3), including 18,662 men and 17,988 women (the male:female ratio is 104:100). The most notable mahallas of the town are Yakubnagar, Nunachara, Mohadebpur, Sobanbagh, Bhuiyan Para, Chowdhury Para (also known as Premtala), Moulvi Para, Amirabad, Edilpur and Shibpur.

Badiul Alam is the incumbent mayor of the town, he was first elected in 2015 and again in 2020 in the Sitakunda municipality election, he is a Awami League politician.

History
To reduce the population pressure on Chittagong, Sitakunda has been developed as a satellite town of the city, as well as a zone selected for industrial development along with Bhatiari. The municipality is growing fast as an urban center, especially in and around Sitakunda and Mahadebpur mouzas where the Office of the Upazila Nirbahi Officer and other major Government offices, boys' high school and college are, but public services and facilities like electricity, drinking water, drainage and garbage disposal are under-provided.

Geography
The town, situated on an unbroken flat land of alluvial deposits that lies below the level of high tide, is free from tidal effects and flash floods of the area due to an embankment.

Threat?
HI !

I'm a lil disturbed about the article... what the hell makes you so sure that Saint Jimmy is the Alter Ego of Jesus?

Did Billie Joe tell it to you? If yes, congratulations i'll take it that way...

But if it isn't that way ( and I'm very sure it isn't) and you don't answer this article within 2 WEEKS i feel free to edit the article the way i think it's meant to be....

to be sure ... i'll post this one also on the other "AMERICAN IDIOT" single track articles

 * Stop making those stupid threats. They get f**k'n annoying. Weirdy 20:59, 8 April 2006 (UTC)

 * Should we feel scared?--Greedy 19:29, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

From 'Homecoming':

"Jimmy died today, He blew his brains out into the bay, In the state of mind in my own private suicide"

Also, Jesus can be seen writing 'Saint Jimmy' on the wall in the Jesus of Suburbia video, probably to prove the one person theory once and for all. --Joewithajay 21:45, 24 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Actually, yeah, Billie Joe said so in the VH1 Storytellers and it's implied throughout the entire album, from Jesus of Suburbia to Boulevard right to the end. 81.110.194.136 20:57, 21 February 2006 (UTC)

I'd say Jos/St. Jimmy is schizophrenic, no? that, or the character could be coming-of-age or becoming a different person. OR! this character could be diminishing the 'bad' side of himself, ie St. Jimmy representing his 'rage' ...OR! the character could be saying bye-bye to both Jesus of Suburbia and St. Jimmy ie, "you're not the Jesus of Suburbia" in the song, Letterbomb. Rosham60 (talk) 10:54, 18 November 2007 (UTC)

"SHOPLIFTER"
Maybe the reason why Jimmy is "filling out paperwork" is explained in the unreleased track SHOPLIFTER, by Green Day...--Greedy 00:59, 24 February 2006 (UTC)

Look at the lyrics:

 * ''Shoplifter, you'll never learn/When you commit the crime
 * Shoplifter, you're getting burned/And now you gotta do the time

St. Jimmy is the alter ego of Jesus
Look here: "Jimmy died today, He blew his brains out into the bay, In the state of mind in my own private suicide"

MY OWN PRIVATE SUICIDE, the lyrics said. Weirdy 20:58, 8 April 2006 (UTC)

Mike Dirnt does sing "Nobody Likes You"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CE49vyNjcxE

Not on the album. Anyone with a working pair of ears can hear that's Billie Joe on the album. --Guess Who 09:36, 14 April 2006 (UTC)

Not to me, sounds somewhat different to Billie Joe's voice. Dirnt did write "Nobody Likes You" and it would be fitting because Tré also sings on the song too. Rosham60 (talk) 10:57, 18 November 2007 (UTC)

Citations and infobox
I filled out the infobox as best as I could. However, could people who know more about Green Day (and have been participating in this article) provide citations for some of the interpretational material within the article? Also, the tone of discourse on this talk page is fairly harsh; please remember to be civil. Remember, we're all trying to make Wikipedia as good as possible, and people who have contributed are valuable editors in their own right. Captainktainer 09:38, 30 April 2006 (UTC)

Factual Error
In the introduction to this article, the drummer is named as Mike Dirnt and the bassist is named as Tre' Cool (which is an error on it's own: It should be Tré Cool). These names are incorrect, and need to be swapped around.

Mike Dirnt and "Nobody Likes You"
He does sing "Nobody Likes You" on the album and live. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gNO1H-BVLx4&search=Homecoming%20live That performance sounds very similar to the one on the album, and if you listen closely on the slbum, you can tell there is a difference in singing between "Nobody Likes You" and the other sections in the song. Listen to that performance and then listen to the song off the album. You will be able to tell Mike Dirnt sings "Nobody Likes You". Orfen 01:58, 30 July 2006 (UTC)

Concept of Song
This song continues with the storyline of the album. I believe that St. Jimmy is the part of Jesus of Suburbia/Jimmy that basicly dies, and is forgotten. "Jesus Filling Out Paperwork Now," could be St. Jimmy's papers, as Jimmy himself is still alive. They desribe the last few encounters and experiences of his journey, and he heads back home to Jingle Town. In Whatsername, he discovers what he remembered is gone, and is desolate.Jokanokorf2 (talk) 16:55, 19 December 2008 (UTC) Jokanokorf2

The inscription reads "Nemo me impune lacessit 1900".

Also known as the one of the Boer War Cross of Iona, the statue has an identical twin. On the esplanade at Edinburgh Castle and the other is on Caledonia Hill, Johannesburg. The later is cared for by the Transvaal Scottish Association.

Religion
Kensington is also home to the headquarters for the Church of Scientology of Johannesburg.

Retail
There are several shopping centres and office parks in the area such as the Eastgate Shopping Centre, Park Meadows Shopping Centre and the Pick 'n Pay head offices. Kensington is a restaurant neighbourhood in development, with most restaurants and coffee shops amid the antique shops on Queen Street. There is an annual Spring Fest on the opening weekend of September.

Wildhoney (Tiamat album)

Wildhoney is the fourth studio album from Swedish music group Tiamat. The album was produced by Waldemar Sorychta and released by Century Media records in 1994. Vocalist Johan Edlund and John Hagel were the only two remaining members of Tiamat who were still with the group after their previous album Clouds in 1992. The album was marked a strong change in the style of Tiamat's music with more progressive rock and psychedelic music-influenced music and a less death metal-oriented style. The music on the album deals with the occult, nature, and LSD.

The album was released on September 1, 1994, and was one of the highest-selling records for Century Media on its release. AllMusic praised the album, referring to it as "one of the classics of the genre".

Production
Tiamat vocalist Johan Edlund was unhappy with the recording of the album Clouds, stating that it "definitely didn't turn out the way I wanted it to". After the release of their 1994 tour EP, The Sleeping Beauty (Live in Israel), Edlund fired all members of Tiamat except for John Hagel. In 1994, Tiamat began working on an album that would become Wildhoney with session musicians Magnus Sahlgren, Lars Sköld, and Waldemar Sorychta who acted as keyboardist and producer. Edlund later stated that on Wildhoney that he "really did what I wanted to do on Clouds". The bird songs on the album were from a sound effects album Edlund had. The album was recorded at Woodhouse Studio.

Style
Wildhoney was a move away from the death metal sound that was previously heard on their last album Clouds. Wildhoney has been described as their first album where the "psychedelic/progressive influences were more widespread". Edlund looked back on the album later, stating that he was "just a very young guy [who] wanted to sound like his favorite band, Pink Floyd". In 2007, Edlund stated that the themes of the album revolved around the pentagram ("The Ar"), nature ("Gaia"), LSD ("A Pocket Size Sun") and satanism ("Visionaire").

Regarding the somewhat controversial lyrics on "The Ar", including the mention of "the sign of the Aryan race" therein, Edlund have stated that: "The symbol was called like this by the people who lived some 5000 years ago in the place now called Iraq. I didn't want to censor myself, because I knew that this could be understood wrongly, now, in this century, but I thought that's not what I'm writing about, so even if people get it wrong, I'd better explain it and stand for it".

Release
Wildhoney was released on September 1, 1994, by Century Media Records. Wildhoney was a very successful album for Century Media. The album sold better than the previous best sellers on the label; Grave and Unleashed. The album was re-released to include the Gaia EP with it in 2001 by Century Media.

Reception
Online music database AllMusic gave the album a rating of four and a half stars out of five, stating that the album "elevated the group's combination of lingering death metal roots and ambient soundscapes to unparalleled heights of invention". AllMusic gave five stars to the reissue that included the Gaia EP, referring to the album as "one of the classics of the genre".

Rema-Rema

Rema-Rema were a short-lived English music group, consisting of Gary Asquith (guitar/vocals), Marco Pirroni (guitar), Michael Allen (bass/vocals), Mark Cox (keyboards) and Dorothy Prior (drums, generally known only as "Max").

History
Asquith and Allen went to the same school. After his departure from punk band The Models, Allen asked Asquith to join in a new project, called Rema-Rema. However, the group dissolved when Marco Pirroni joined Adam and the Ants.

Pirroni had been an original member of Siouxsie and the Banshees, and was a short-time member of Cowboys International. Asquith, Allen, and Cox went on to form another short-lived band Mass, which then split up to form Renegade Soundwave (Asquith) and The Wolfgang Press (Allen and Cox). Max later joined Psychic TV, and also recorded a single "I Confess" under the name Dorothy, co-written with Alex Fergusson, released on Industrial Records in 1980.

Their sole four-track EP, Wheel in the Roses (released 1980 on 4AD), featured one side of studio recordings and another of live material. Their songs "Fond Affections" and "Rema-Rema" were later covered by This Mortal Coil and Big Black respectively. Two live tracks from the Acklam Hall gig of April 1979, "Why Ask Why?" and "Christopher" appeared on the tape only release, The Men with the Deadly Dreams, on White Stains in 1981.

In 2022, a documentary about the group, What You Could Not Visualise, was directed by Italian-Canadian filmmaker Marco Porsia and premiered on 10 November 2022 at the Doc N Roll Film Festival in London.

Dan Wilson (musician)

Daniel Dodd Wilson (born May 20, 1961) is an American musician, singer, songwriter, visual artist and record producer who has been called the songwriter's songwriter. His songwriting résumé includes "Closing Time", which he wrote for his band, Semisonic; "Not Ready to Make Nice", co-written with The Chicks; and "Someone Like You", co-written with Adele. Wilson's work earned him a Grammy nomination for "Closing Time" (Best Rock Song) and garnered him Grammy wins for Song of the Year ("Not Ready to Make Nice" in 2007) and Album of the Year as a producer for Adele's 21 in 2012.

Wilson has collaborated with a diverse range of acclaimed artists, including Pink, Celine Dion, Leon Bridges, Mitski, Claud, Halsey, Weezer, Panic! at the Disco, My Morning Jacket, Dierks Bentley, John Legend, Joy Oladokun, Laufey, and many others.

In 2012, Wilson produced the song "Treacherous” which he co wrote with Taylor Swift for Swift's fourth studio album Red, resulting in an additional Album of the Year Grammy nomination. In 2021, Wilson produced the re-recorded version of "Treacherous" for Swift's second re-recorded album, Red (Taylor's Version).

On November 10, 2023, Wilson received Grammy nominations for Song of the Year for "Butterfly", which he wrote with Jon Batiste, and Best Country Song for “White Horse", which he co-wrote with Chris Stapleton.

In January 2024, "It Never Went Away", the song Wilson co-wrote with Jon Batiste for the documentary American Symphony, received an Academy Award nomination for Best Original Song.

On February 4, 2024, Wilson won the Grammy for Best Country Song for “White Horse", which he co-wrote with Chris Stapleton.

In addition to being the frontman of Semisonic, Wilson has released several solo recordings, including the 2017 release Re-Covered. He was also a member of the Minneapolis psychedelic rock band Trip Shakespeare.

Early life and education
Wilson is a native of St. Louis Park, Minnesota. Wilson attended Harvard University, where he studied visual arts with a focus on printmaking and from which he graduated B.A. summa cum laude in Visual and Environmental Studies in 1983, while he resided in Dunster House. Wilson is an accomplished artist, and won the first Louis Sudler Prize for Outstanding Artistic Talent and Achievement in 1983. While in college, he began collaborating with his brother, singer-songwriter Matt Wilson, who also attended Harvard College. The Wilson brothers played in two bands, Animal Dance and the Love Monsters. After college, Wilson pursued his interest in drawing and painting, first in San Francisco and then in Minneapolis.

Early career
In 1987, Wilson joined the Minneapolis psychedelic band Trip Shakespeare, which his brother Matt Wilson had founded with bassist John Munson and drummer Elaine Harris. The original three members had already released one record, Applehead Man, and now as a quartet, with Wilson on guitar, piano, sharing lead vocal duties with Matt Wilson—with whom Wilson also co-wrote many of the songs—and Munson, the band released three more albums (Are You Shakespearienced?, 1988, Gark Records; Across the Universe, 1990, A&M Records; Lulu, 1991, A&M Records) and one EP (Volt, 1992, Twin Tone).

Since Trip Shakespeare's breakup in 1992, Wilson has continued to collaborate with his brother, including the release of two live albums (Minneapolis 2010 and Minneapolis 2013).

With Semisonic
After Trip Shakespeare's breakup in 1992, Wilson and Munson joined with drummer Jacob Slichter to form Pleasure, a trio that was later renamed Semisonic. Semisonic released one EP, three full-length albums, and one live album.

The band's first album, Great Divide, received critical acclaim. David Fricke wrote in a year-end Rolling Stone article on the notable albums of 1996, "Great Divide is that rare '96 beast, a record of simple but sparkling modern pop, rattling with power-trio vitality." It was their 1998 release, Feeling Strangely Fine, however, that brought the band to widespread national and then international attention and success. Powered by Wilson's songs "Closing Time", which was a number-one hit on the Modern Rock charts for thirteen weeks in the spring and summer of 1998, the follow-up single "Singing in My Sleep", and "Secret Smile", a breakthrough hit for the band internationally, Feeling Strangely Fine attained platinum sales status in the U.S. and U.K. "Closing Time" received a 1999 Grammy nomination for Best Rock Song and has become an enduring pop-culture reference point for the late 1990s. It was a focal point of the plot and soundtrack of the 2011 film Friends with Benefits.

Semisonic's third album, All About Chemistry, was released in 2001, and featured Wilson's song "Chemistry", the album's first single, and also included "One True Love", a song Wilson co-wrote with Carole King.

Semisonic stopped touring in August 2001 but continued to perform on occasion. Slichter's memoir, So You Wanna Be a Rock & Roll Star, provides a detailed account of the band's adventures and misadventures in the music business.

On June 26, 2020, Semisonic released their first single in nearly 20 years, "You're Not Alone," followed by an EP of the same name on September 18, 2020.

Free Life
Wilson's solo debut, Free Life, was released in 2007 by American Recordings. Produced with Rick Rubin, Free Life was recorded in Minneapolis and Los Angeles and includes performances by Tracy Bonham, Sheryl Crow, Jason Lader, Gary Louris, Natalie Maines, Benmont Tench, and a number of Minneapolis-based musicians including multi-instrumentalist and frequent Semisonic sideman Ken Chastain, Eric Fawcett, John Hermanson, Joanna James, Mason Jennings, Steve Rhoem, Joe Savage, as well as Wilson's Semisonic bandmates Munson and Slichter.

Free Life helped establish Wilson's reputation as a songwriter, with The A.V. Club writing, "the star of the show here is Wilson's remarkable instinct for creating gorgeous songs, and his unabashed, obvious joy in doing so. For anyone worried that songcraft is an endangered species, Free Life should ease those fears."

The song Breathless became a big hit in Greece (and other Balkan countries ) and Dan Wilson performed it at the 2009 MAD Video Music Awards.

Love Without Fear
Wilson's second solo album, Love Without Fear, was released on April 15, 2014 and includes performances by Sara Bareilles, Missy Higgins, Lissie, Natalie Maines, Blake Mills, Sara Watkins, and Sean Watkins. The first recording from Love Without Fear, "Disappearing" (with a cover of Neil Young's "Out on the Weekend" included as a b-side) was released on November 7, 2013 and was the debut release of the new singles label, Canvasclub.

In describing the album, Wilson said, "The songs are about being left alone, not wanting to lose someone, about desperately wishing for connection and togetherness. The sound of the record lives at the intersection of Americana and Beatles- influenced rock and roll. A little bit of twang and a lot of cinematic emotion." The album received largely favourable reviews emphasizing Wilson's reputation as a songwriter. "Dan Wilson's career is proof positive that smart, elegant songwriting has a place in music… [Love Without Fear] is a lovely amalgamation of chamber rock, gentle country, gooey '70s pop and snappy soul."

Re-Covered
Wilson's third solo studio album, Re-Covered, was released on August 4, 2017. The album is a collection of reinterpretations of songs Wilson wrote for other artists, both big hits and "songs that I always wished were big hits, but weren't." The album includes "Someone Like You" (written with Adele), "Not Ready To Make Nice" (written with Dixie Chicks), "Home" (written with Dierks Bentley and Brett Beavers), and "When The Stars Come Out" (written with Chris Stapleton).

Singles
In September 2018 Wilson announced that he would begin releasing new music that Fall. Rather than organizing the new songs into an album, he would instead release them over time as monthly singles. According to Wilson, "I fell in love with the idea of just letting songs out into the world when they happen." "I don't have anything against making an album. If I do 15 or 20 of these I would love the idea of packaging them together and calling it an album. I think that'd be fantastic, but I don't really have that in my mind. I'm just trying to be free."

Words and Music by Dan Wilson
Wilson's discoveries as a solo artist and collaborator with other artists are the subject of "Words and Music by Dan Wilson", solo concerts in which he performs some of his songs and describes the songs' various inspirations or the insights that occasioned their composition. "Words and Music by Dan Wilson" has come to Hotel Cafe, Room 5 and Largo in Los Angeles, Joe's Pub and City Winery in New York, World Cafe Live in Philadelphia, Jammin' Java in DC, Rams Head in Annapolis, The Cedar Cultural Center in Minneapolis, the Fitzgerald Theater in Saint Paul, Schubas Tavern in Chicago, Berklee College of Music's Red Room at Cafe 939 in Boston, and the Red Barn concert series in Northfield, MN. Wilson has also presented Words & Music workshops at the 2012 ASCAP expo, UCLA's Herb Alpert School of Music, and USC's Thornton School of Music.

Wilson's thoughts about songwriting and the creative process are also captured in his series, Words & Music in Six Seconds, which was originally launched on Vine and is now regularly posted on Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook. From American Songwriter, "In his short videos, Wilson provides insightful quips about common songwriting insecurities, methodology, personal writing quirks, and various other tips for writing your best." In November 2020, he released the Words + Music in 6 Seconds deck, a collection of cards written and designed by Wilson based on his Instagram series.

As a songwriter and producer
As a songwriter and producer, Wilson has collaborated with a number of artists. Two of these collaborations have earned him Grammy Awards.

A number of artists have described Wilson's ability to help put their feelings and ideas into song. Speaking of her experience of working with him, Pink said, in an online interview, "He is brilliant, and he's a thoughtful songwriter. And he's a song crafter . . . like old-school. He crafts songs and he thinks about them. And I learned a lot from working with him." In describing her co-writing with Wilson, Adele said, "Dan had me on my hands and knees, crying my eyes out - there's just something about him that made me completely open up as a composer."

Taking the Long Way – The Dixie Chicks
Wilson co-wrote six of the songs on the Dixie Chicks multiple-Grammy-winning album Taking the Long Way, including the title song and "Not Ready to Make Nice", which earned Wilson and the Dixie Chicks the 2007 Grammy for Song of the Year. In the 2006 film Dixie Chicks: Shut Up and Sing, Wilson speaks on camera about his experience as a co-writer on this album, especially in regard to helping the Dixie Chicks make an artistic response to their rejection by radio and a large swath of their fans in the wake of the band's statements about President Bush and the Iraq War.

One of the songs he co-wrote for this album, "Easy Silence", appears on Free Life, with Dixie Chicks singer Natalie Maines singing harmonies.

21 – Adele
Wilson co-wrote three of the songs on Adele's multiple-Grammy-winning 21, "Don't You Remember", "One and Only", and, most notably, "Someone Like You", which became a number one hit in the US, UK, Ireland, Australia, and New Zealand was a top ten hit around the globe. As a producer of this track, on which he also played piano, Wilson shared in the 2012 Grammy Award for Album of the Year.

In an interview with American Songwriter, Wilson recounted the writing and recording of "Someone Like You":

 * The recording on the album was intended as a demo. I was thinking, "Oh, they're going to make a big version of this, strings and angelic choirs, like a big Chrissie Hynde power-ballad." But by the end of the first day, the demo was sounding lovely, and very affecting, but it was only half-written, there were no words on the second verse or the bridge as I remember. Adele came to the studio the next day and said, "I played it for my manager and me Mum." I was a little nervous about this because I don't like people to hear works-in-progress. I asked her what they thought of the song. "My manager loves it and me Mum cried."

"Someone Like You" won the 2012 Grammy for Best Pop Solo Performance, and as she accepted the award, Adele said, "I want to thank Dan Wilson, who wrote this song with me. My life changed when I wrote this song and I felt it before anyone even heard it."

"Someone Like You" was the most downloaded single of all time in the UK and was voted third most favourite single of the last 60 years in the UK.

As a visual artist
Wilson's career as a painter, illustrator, and calligrapher is less widely known, but his artwork has often intersected with his music career. He was represented by Thomas Barry Fine Arts in Minneapolis, and his works are included in numerous private and corporate collections. Wilson's paintings are featured on the artwork for two of Trip Shakespeare's albums, Are You Shakespearienced? and Lulu, as well as on the cover of his first solo album, Free Life.

Wilson created all of the artwork for his 2014 album Love Without Fear. Most notably, a hand illustrated 24-page hardcover Deluxe Album Book/CD. The package includes Wilson's own calligraphy, sketches, and handwritten lyrics for each song on the album. The official lyric videos for his singles from the album, "Disappearing" and "A Song Can Be About Anything" are also made entirely from his own illustrations.

At his "Words and Music by Dan Wilson" shows, audience members receive illuminated set lists that are hand illustrated by Wilson. One of these set lists was featured on NPR's blog All Songs Considered.

Wilson's calligraphy and illustrations are featured in his Tumblr series, "DW's Sketchbook" and his musical cartoons have been featured in The Wall Street Journal's Speakeasy Blog.

Personal life
Wilson is married to Diane Espaldon. Wilson and his wife were contemporaries at Harvard University, where he studied visual arts and she studied government. Wilson's wife subsequently earned a M.A. from School of International and Public Affairs, Columbia University. Together, they have one biological daughter, Corazon ("Coco") (b. 1997), who was born prematurely and has disabilities and for whom "Closing Time" was written before her birth, and Lily (b. 2007), who was adopted at age two from the Philippines.

Khyber Rock

Khyber Rock is a suburb of Johannesburg, South Africa. It is located in Region E of the City of Johannesburg Metropolitan Municipality.

Background
One of Johannesburg's smallest and most exclusive northern suburbs with one main road, Lincoln Rd, running through it from east to west for about only 650m. Khyber Rock borders the more well known Woodmead and is geologically part of an extinct volcanic area. Known for its high levels of mineral and metal content in the surrounding rocks, this area is susceptible to lightning strikes during the frequent summer thunderstorm activity.

Johannesburg architect Carmel Back and husband Harry bought 8.5 ha of wooded hillside called Kyhber Rock around 1957. When overwhelmed by demand by the sale of cottage on their property, they decided to apply for subdivision rights and turn their land into a suburb. The Mediterranean style architecture was the style used by her designs for the first houses, nestled amongst the hills rocks, with winding brick roads. Subsequent house had to seek her design approval.

It was merged as per its AFD debate, but rather haphazardly, I'm afraid. Anyone who knows more about the movie should feel free to clean it up. Johnleemk | Talk 11:04, 11 December 2005 (UTC)

Trivia
I'm not too sure about the last trivia reference (a capcom game from 1987 involving two flail guns). How similar are the two scenes? It seems in Robots that many references are made almost perfectly, can anyone confirm the similarities? BadCRC 01:11, 21 March 2006 (UTC)

In the big chase scence when Bigweld is slowly singing Daisy; isn't that a reference to 2001:A Space Odyssey? I think I came across it on imdb.com

Yes, and I would like to add to that. Just because a character cracked his neck, it does not mean it is an X-Men reference. I do not see any important simularity between Watertown, New York and Rivet Town. And I DEFINITELY disagree with the comment of the Holocaust metaphor. There is no resemblance to the event despite what the author may say. Please change it posthaste.

IMDB lists Queens as where Wedge grew up, and that he attended Fayetteville-Manlius High School, outside of Syracuse, NY. I happen to attend this very high school, and it is in fact outside of Syracuse, which isn't exactly Watertown. I haven't found any other sources on the web citing that Wedge spent his teens in Watertown, without first mentioning that that is what Rivet Town is based on. Fayetteville-Manlius HS isn't a boarding school either, so there is no way that he could have lived in Watertown and simultaneously attended FMHS. If anyone could clear this up it'd be nice. blarghamagarky 4:47, 11 March 2007.

Agreed - "The movie's plotline was based on the Holocaust. ([Ratchet - Hitler]; [Outmodes - Jews])" - give me a break! Is there any evidence for this - i.e. a statement by someone responsible? I must work out how to do a "citation needed" tag...

I removed the references that required citation. I think they should only be added when people have information pertaining to the film, what the trivia is, and citation.D43M0N 11:13, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

Bigweld in person vs Old TV show
Can these differences be attributed to Bigweld aging over time, or having upgrades (e.g. neck section)? If so, I think the trivia point regarding this should be edited. glasnt <3  03:49, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

Merge of Characters
We should merge all the Robots characters into one page, either this page or List of Robots characters. Cbrown1023 19:23, 15 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Agree. The characters could be merged into the main article with short descriptions of each character, especially since most seem to just be plot summaries of each character.  Expanding the summary of the film would fix that problem after the merges, and on a side note, the homages section needs to be weeded down. Radagast83 19:10, 21 October 2006 (UTC)
 * I agree, Robots is a one time film (and I don't think a sequel is planned?). We don't need article after article about each character from one movie. This same thing needs to happen with other film characters as well. People add way too many film character articles for one-time movies. RobJ1981 05:08, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Yes, but just to add more to what you said, an article on a film character can exist, but as a list with other characters using pretty much the same format as other lists... "List of NAMEOFMOVIE characters". The only time that characters get their own page is if there is sufficient information on them or are in many movies (like famous). Cbrown1023 19:41, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
 * I say delete - these characters are not notable by themselves and not enough info. But I would be content with merging them in this article, per Radagast83. AdamSmithee 22:59, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
 * This has been discussed for a while (16 days) so I'm going to merge them all into the page List of Robots characters. Cbrown1023 20:52, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

fixes
I just finished watching the movie and was a little disappointed at what a mess this article is. The first thing I did was remove the second mention of Greg Kinnear, don't know how that stayed in there so long. More importantly, I removed 2 songs from the "other songs" section, as neither of these songs were mentioned in the credits (I watched the credit roll twice and paused it several times to confirm), and I don't remember hearing them in the film. I also added two songs that were inexplicably omitted (both of which were fairly big hits in their respective eras). And finally, I removed the mention of Chingy as having a cameo. He didn't actually go into the studio and record his voice for this film, they just used a piece of his song when a robot was breakdancing, it doesn't mean that robot was "voiced" by him. On that note, the only reason I left James Earl Jones in (who should be removed by the same logic) is he's actually mentioned in the credits (even the opening credits, for a 4-second clip recorded decades ago, must have been some sort of contract thing). The article is still a bit of a mess, but I'd like to think I did my part. - ♥ harutake ♫ | talk 00:55, 31 March 2011 (UTC)

 * We kind of encourage that whenever we can by pointing people to Sandbox. However, some people like to mess with the real thing, unfortunately. Erik (talk | contribs) 13:41, 15 September 2011 (UTC)

Revert of four years of edits
An IP hopping editor (I'm assuming it is the same editor) is insisting on reverting to a version from almost four years ago with no explanation. Is there some valid reason for this or is this simply vandalism/trolling? Meters (talk) 18:49, 6 October 2014 (UTC)

Aunt Fanny in the UK
I noticed there's no mention anywhere on the page of the fact that in the UK version of the film, Aunt Fanny's name was changed to Aunt Fan (due to fanny being a highly vulgar regional slang for vagina). Shouldn't that be mentioned somewhere? 94.2.54.189 (talk) 16:23, 11 August 2017 (UTC)

East Australian Current

The East Australian Current (EAC) is a warm, southward, western boundary current that is formed from the South Equatorial Current (SEC) crossing the Coral Sea and reaching the eastern coast of Australia. At around 15° S near the Australian coast the SEC divides forming the southward flow of the EAC. It is the largest ocean current close to the shores of Australia.

Behaviour
The EAC reaches a maximum velocity at 30° S, where its flow can reach 90 cm/s. As it flows southward it splits from the coast at around 31° to 32° S. By the time it reaches 33° S it begins to undergo a southward meander while another portion of the transport turns back northward in a tight recirculation. At this location the EAC reaches its maximum transport of nearly 35 Sv (35 billion liters per second).

The majority of the EAC flow that does not recirculate will move eastward into the Tasman Front, crossing the Tasman Sea just north of the cape of New Zealand. The remainder will flow south on the EAC Extension until it reaches the Antarctic Circumpolar Current. The Tasman Front transport is estimated at 13 Sv. The eastward movement of the EAC through the Tasman Front and reattachment to the coastline of New Zealand forms the East Auckland Current. The EAC also acts to transport tropical marine fauna to habitats in sub-tropical regions along the south east Australian coast. The current also warms up the eastern coastline of the country.

Physical oceanography
The EAC is a surface current driven by winds over the South Pacific. These winds control how the current behaves at different times of year. The EAC starts on the west edge of the South Pacific Gyre where it collects warm, nutrient-poor water. As it skirts along the east coast of Australia, it carries a large amount of warm tropical water from the Equator southward. This contributes to the conditions which allow the Great Barrier Reef to thrive, keeping the east coast around 18 °C year round instead of dropping to 12 °C in the winter.

The current is very low in nutrients but remains important for the marine ecosystem. The EAC transfers heat from the tropics to the mid-latitude water and atmosphere. It does this by producing warm core eddies, which allow the Tasman Sea to have a large biodiversity. The most southern tip of the EAC can produce these eddies by wind currents. As instabilities in the current develop due to a westward Tasman Front, the meander pinches off to form eddies once or twice per year.

The EAC causes upwelling along the coastline. The eddies produced cause an increase in vertical mixing within the Tasman Sea. The process of producing, moving, and destroying eddies causes the thermocline layer to mix with the surface layer, bringing some nutrients up to the surface. The EAC and its eddies frequently flow onto the continental shelf and inshore, influencing circulation patterns and increasing mixing. Eddies are not the only way the EAC brings nutrients to the surface. Features along the coast push the current further offshore. If there is a strong northerly wind, it will push the current even further offshore, allowing deep water to rise up the coast, bringing nutrients up to the surface.

The EAC varies seasonally. It tends to be strongest in the summer, with a total flow of around 36.3 Sv. It is its weakest during the winter months, flowing at around 27.4 Sv. Over the past 50–60 years the EAC has shifted. The south Tasman Sea has become warmer and saltier from 1944–2002, causing the flow to strengthen and extend southward. This shift in the EAC flow past Tasmania is controlled by the Southern Hemisphere subtropical ocean circulation. This trend is thought to be caused by changes in wind patterns due to ozone depletion over Australia. There is a strong consensus with climate models that this trend will continue to intensify and accelerate over the next 100 years. The current is predicted to increase by more than 20%, due to the increase in South Pacific winds.

In popular culture
In the 2003 Disney/Pixar animated film Finding Nemo, the EAC is portrayed as a superhighway that fish and sea turtles use to travel down the east coast of Australia. The characters Marlin (Albert Brooks) and Dory (Ellen DeGeneres) join Crush (Andrew Stanton), Squirt (Nicholas Bird) and a group of baby and adult sea turtles and fish in using the EAC to help them travel to Sydney Harbour to find his son Nemo (Alexander Gould). The basic premise of the storyline is actually correct. Every summer, thousands of fish are swept from the Great Barrier Reef to Sydney Harbour and further south; however, the current is not nearly as rapid as depicted in the film.

Larry Donald

Larry Ali Donald (born January 6, 1967) is an American former professional boxer. As an amateur he won a bronze medal in the super heavyweight division at the 1991 World Championships and won a gold medal at the 1992 World Championship Challenge and becoming amateur world Super heavyweight champion going into the 1992 Olympic Games represented the United States at the 1992 Olympics. During his professional career, he defeated the likes of Evander Holyfield, Jeremy Williams, Bert Cooper, Tim Witherspoon, and Ross Puritty.

Amateur career
Donald was the American representative at Super Heavyweight at the 1992 Barcelona Olympic Games. His results were:
 * 1st round bye
 * Defeated Nikolay Kulpin (Unified Team/Former Soviet Union) RSC 3 (0:02)
 * Lost to Roberto Balado (Cuba) 4–10

In addition to his Olympic run, Donald had a successful amateur career, including:
 * National Golden Gloves Super Heavyweight Champion (1989, 1990)
 * United States National Amateur Champion at Super Heavyweight (1991)

He also won the World Championship Challenge in Tampa, Florida, March 13–14, 1992, right before going into the 1992 Summer Olympics.

Donald finished his with 72 fights, completing a record of 67 wins, 5 losses.

Professional career
Larry "The Legend" Donald turned pro on January 3, 1993, earning a technical knockout against Craig Brinson. In 1994 he beat fellow undefeated prospect Jeremy Williams, and Bert Cooper, but suffered his first defeat when losing widely to ex-champ Riddick Bowe, who had infamously sucker punched Donald twice at the pre-fight press conference.

He resurfaced in late 1997 outpointing ex-champ Tim Witherspoon, but spent many years fighting low profile on Don King under cards, unpopular with fans and the press for his negative, ultra-defensive and extremely unentertaining style.

In July 2001 he had a high-profile world title eliminator with Kirk Johnson, 31–0–1, but lost a close decision.

In 2002 he traveled to Germany to face Vitali Klitschko. Even at the age of 35, Donald was considered one of the most durable fighters in the world, but the heavy hitting Klitschko surprisingly stopped the veteran, decking him three times in the 10th round.

Although things looked over, Donald seemingly reinvented himself in November 2004 with an upset win over the legendary Evander Holyfield, winning nearly every round against the Hall of Famer ex-champ for the NABC World Champion Title.

In 2005, Donald controversially lost a title eliminator bout to giant-sized Russian Nicolay Valuev which would have earned him the right to fight John Ruiz for the WBA belt.

On July 30, 2007, Donald returned to ring to face Alexander Povetkin, and lost a lopsided decision.

Valeria Golino

Valeria Golino (born 22 October 1965) is an Italian actress and film director. She is best known to English-language audiences for her roles in Rain Man, Big Top Pee-wee, and both films in the Hot Shots! franchise. In addition to David di Donatello, Nastro d'Argento, Ciak d'oro and Globo d'oro awards, she is one of four actresses to have twice won the Best Actress award at the Venice Film Festival.

Early life
Golino was born on 22 October 1965 in Naples, Italy, the daughter of an Italian father who was a Germanist scholar, and a Greek mother, Lalla, who was a painter. One of her grandmothers was Egyptian-French. She grew up in an "artistic household", and after her parents split up, was raised alternating between Athens and Sorrento (near Naples). Golino is the niece of the journalist Enzo Golino at L'Espresso, and her brother is a musician. When she was a girl, her mother frequently took her to the cinema, and she quickly became interested in films. In spite of this, though, she never thought about pursuing a film career until she made her first movie. Instead, she wanted to be a cardiologist. Valeria was diagnosed with scoliosis at age 11, and she had to have a steel rod implanted in her back for five years. She remained in the care of a surgeon in Chicago for six months, where she learned to speak English. At age 14, she started to work as a fashion model in Athens, Milan, London, and Los Angeles. She was in TV commercials for beer, perfume, and cosmetics, and she modeled swimsuits and blue jeans. Being an unfocused student, she dropped out of high school after acting in her first movie.

1983–1987
Golino never formally studied acting. Her career started by chance when her uncle Enzo received a phone call from the director Lina Wertmüller, who was searching for a young girl for her movie, and encouraged Golino to go to Wertmuller's house to meet her.

The two met and Valeria was eventually cast in her first film, A Joke of Destiny (1983), alongside Ugo Tognazzi after an audition where she performed Shakespeare. Despite her parents' reservations and Wertmuller's demanding on-set behavior, she liked the experience so much that she decided to pursue an acting career. She gave up modeling, which she had never found fulfilling or interesting, and started to study diction and elocution. Among her early auditions were Una spina nel cuore (an audition that she called "distasteful") and The Name of the Rose but was passed over for both films. She was offered roles in Giochi d'estate (1984) and other similarly themed romantic films about teenagers, but she turned them down to focus on smaller and more challenging projects.

She followed her first with a string of independent films, including roles in My Dearest Son and Little Flames (both 1985), her first leading role, both of which won her a Golden Globe award for Best Breakthrough Actress. Later that year, she was involved in a car accident which displaced the metal bar in her back and had to have surgery in order to fix it: she was bedridden for five months.

Her star-making role came the following year, when she played the life-loving cleaning lady who romances two different men in Storia d'amore (A Tale of Love) by Francesco Maselli. Her performance received rave reviews and earned her two prizes at the 1986 Venice Film Festival, the official Best Actress award (now called Volpi Cup) and the Golden Ciak award. The same film also won her the oldest and most prestigious critics' prize of the Italian cinema, the Silver Ribbon award for Best Actress.

Her following projects were once again independent, auteur-driven films, The Gold Rimmed Glasses and Three Sisters. She was supposed to reunite with Maselli for his following film L'uomo della casa di fronte, co-starring Marcello Mastroianni, but the project never happened. The same director then moved on to another film, Codice privato, and Golino turned down the role that was eventually played by Ornella Muti.

1988–2000
She moved to Los Angeles in the 1988 following her then partner, a Puerto Rican actor. Her Hollywood period started with the movie Big Top Pee-wee (1988). She was cast in Rain Man (also 1988) as Susanna, the girlfriend of Tom Cruise's character, and in the comedy films Hot Shots! (1991) and Hot Shots! Part Deux (1993), as the girlfriend of the protagonist (Hot Shots! was a direct spoof of Top Gun). She became known for the "olive-in-the-belly-button" scene.

Her character's nationality in Rain Man was changed from American to Italian-American to accommodate her accent. Even though she was known as a dramatic actress in Italy, most of the offers she received in Hollywood were for comedies.

Golino auditioned for lead roles in Pretty Woman and Flatliners, but both times she lost the part to Julia Roberts during the final audition. She was first runner-up for both roles and, in the case of Pretty Woman, she revealed many years later: "I was in the running until the final audition: it came down to Julia Roberts and me. The director asked us to walk in the same corridor, wearing the same clothes and makeup. As soon as I saw her [Roberts], I knew that she would have been chosen. And since she knew that, she told me: 'Go and get them, big mama!' I wouldn't have dared to say that to my rival. I would have been good in that film but she was perfect". She also turned down the leading role in the Ken Loach film Hidden Agenda, which she called "an offer that I still regret having declined".

In 1993, she was heavily involved in producing and starring in an independent feature film, Cat in the Box, which was never made, and because of that project, she was forced to turn down a role in a movie directed by Carlo Verdone.

During the following year, she was offered the leading role in True Lies, but she had to turn that down because of conflicts in scheduling with I Sfagi tou kokora (1996), an independent film made in Cyprus. She had joined this film project in 1992, while it was still in preproduction, and she fervently wanted to be a part of it. Later on that year, she was supposed to act with Gian Maria Volonté in the film Treni sull'acqua. This project would have marked her third collaboration with the director Peter Del Monte, but it was canceled after the death of Volonté.

In early 1996, she was supposed to play a journalist in the film Bravo Randy, directed by Alessandro D'Alatri and also starring Jovanotti in the titular role of a tramp who falls into a coma after an accident. However, the project fell apart just a few months before shooting was slated to begin: fearing a lack of influence, the Italian production company blocked the funds as the film would have been shot in California.

2000-present
In 2000, Golino returned to Italy. In January 2001, she was supposed to star with Claudio Amendola in a TV mini-series called Cuore di ghiaccio, directed by Luciano Casciani, produced by Mediaset and set in Cefalù, but the project never took off the ground.

She had a supporting role in the successful French thriller 36, Quai des Orfèvres (2004) and a leading role in Cash (2008), although the producers of the film had wanted Kristin Scott Thomas instead. Her role as Irene in Sacred Heart (2004) had been written specifically for her by director Ferzan Ozpetek, but she was forced to abandon the project for personal reasons. She was replaced by Barbora Bobuľová.

In 2005, she was offered the leading role in Fine pena mai (2008) but she turned it down, considering herself to be too old for the part. The role was eventually played by Valentina Cervi.

In 2006, Theodoros Angelopoulos cast her in The Dust of Time (2008) after being impressed by Golino's work in Respiro. However the many delays in the shooting forced her to drop out of the project in late 2007 for scheduling conflicts. She was replaced by Irène Jacob.

In 2009, she was the subject of the monograph Valeria Golino: Respiro d'attrice by Massimo Causo.

The following year she was offered the chance to direct a short film by the company Pasta Garofalo, Armandino e il Madre, for which she also wrote the script. Her first feature film as director, Honey (2013), was screened in the Un Certain Regard section at the 2013 Cannes Film Festival and won a commendation from the Ecumenical Jury.

She played Armida Miserere, a high-security warden in Like the Wind (2013), directed by Marco Simon Puccioni, a difficult leading role praised by the critics and awarded in festival.

Despite her self-deprecating reluctance, she also sang in several films, most notably her English-language films Hot Shots! and Big Top Pee-wee and in Italian in Like the Wind. She recorded two LPs in 1987, the song "Maybe Once More" for L'inverno and 'Piangi Roma' for Giulia Doesn't Date at Night (featuring Baustelle), the latter of which won her a Silver Ribbon award for Best Song.

She is a member of AMPAS thanks to the invitation of Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau.

In 2016, she was a member of the main competition jury of the 2016 Cannes Film Festival.

In 2018, she directed Euforia which was screened in the Un Certain Regard section at the 2018 Cannes Film Festival and is considered to be one of best performances of Riccardo Scamarcio, who played the main role.

Her recent project, L’Arte della Gioia TV series, was screened at the 77th Cannes Film Festival.

Personal life
In 2005-2016, she dated Italian actor Riccardo Scamarcio. Since 2018, she has been dating a lawyer, Fabio Palombi, who is 24 years younger. Golino doesn't have children.

Killarney, Johannesburg

Killarney is a suburb of Johannesburg, South Africa. A relatively wealthy area, located west of the M1 freeway, Killarney is a densely built-up area, and it has numerous apartment blocks, as well as a large shopping mall, Killarney Mall.

Neighbouring suburbs include Houghton Estate, Riviera, and Parktown.

It is home to the first shopping mall in Johannesburg. It was formerly known as the Hollywood of Johannesburg, due it being the location of one of the first film studios in South Africa. Killarney currently is home to consulates, tall residential building (including some of Johannesburg's best examples of Art Deco architecture) and a golf course. There is a large Jewish and Muslim community in Killarney. Killarney is very cosmopolitan and also has a large gay community.

History
In the early 1930s, the land in Killarney, an outlying northern suburb, belonged to I.W. Schlesinger’s African Realty Trust. ‘The Uncrowned King of Africa’ had bought the 43-hectare for £120,000. According to his plan, the majority of the sites were not to be built up. They were to remain a park area. Still, he demarcated a few areas for buildings.

US-born Schlesinger wanted to transplant American ways to South African soil, and particularly to his domain, Killarney. On the grounds currently occupied by the mall, he built African Film Studios, Johannesburg’s answer to Hollywood. This man, one of the richest in the country, preferred to live in a flat, New York–style. This might explain his decision to sell sites in the suburb for development of modern apartment blocks.

Daventry Court was probably the first multi-storied block of flats erected in Killarney in the 1930s.

In its adverts, African Realty Trust used to describe Killarney as ‘a garden, an orchard, a vineyard, an orangery, a shrubbery, a pinery, a paradise, a picnic spot, a health resort, a township and a home’. Schlesinger, who lived in Whitehall Court, wanted to preserve this character of the suburb and was very particular about tidiness. If the construction workers accidentally spilt sand or some rubble over the sites’ boundaries, he immediately received a letter from Schlesinger’s office: ‘Please, keep Killarney clean!’

The area attracted many Jews. I W Schlesinger, the initial developer, was always open about his Jewish identity. He set up several facilities in Killarney that welcomed his co-religionists: the Transvaal Automobile Club or the Killarney Golf Course. There were quite a few Jewish tenants in Daventry Court from the very beginning.

By the 1960-70s, the status of Killarney had changed. It was no longer an area of choice for the forward-looking people. The average tenants were middle-aged or even elderly.

Fay Susser-Sher remarks in her thesis on Killarney: ‘Often after having brought up children on large plots in the very affluent suburb of Lower Houghton, the parents, after the children had left home, sold the houses and then moved into flats in Killarney.’

Many of them settled there for life. A very prominent section consisted of affluent Jews, members of the Oxford Shul congregation, attended by Black domestic servants who lived in the outbuildings next to the block.

According to the 1985 census about half of the suburb’s White population were older than sixty-five.

These days, Killarney is no longer the sparsely populated suburb it was at the inception of Daventry Court. There are almost sixty apartment blocks here, of which Whitehall Court and our building are the oldest.

Killarney has become more cosmopolitan. Though Pick ‘n Pay at the mall still has a large kosher department, the suburb has lost its predominantly Jewish character. Gone are the well-to-do ‘blue-rinsed grannies of Killarney’. Since the early 1990s, the area has attracted the new multiracial middle-class, younger upward-mobile people.

What’s more, occupancy and ownership have become more fluid. Nowadays there are only several people in the building who have resided here for more than fifteen years.

Silver Star Mountain Resort

Silver Star Mountain Resort (Silver Star) is a ski resort located near Silver Star Provincial Park in the Shuswap Highland of the Monashee Mountains, 22 km northeast of the city of Vernon, British Columbia, Canada. Silver Star's snow season runs from late November to mid-April, weather permitting. Silver Star provides summer lift access for mountain biking and hiking from the end of June through September.

Silver Star's current government leadership consists of local mayor Amanda Shatzko, MP Mel Arnold, and MLA Harwinder Sandhu.

Terrain
Silver Star has an annual snowfall of 700 cm or 23 ft (7.0 m). There are a total of 132 marked trails, with a vertical drop of 760 m (2,500 ft). The elevation of the village is 1,609 m (5,279 ft), while the summit is 1,915 m (6,283 ft) above sea level.

Silver Star has a total of 12 lifts: One eight-seater gondola (Summit Express), one Six-Pack Express chairlift (Comet Six-Pack Express), two detachable high-speed quads (Silverwoods Express, Powder Gulch Express), two fixed-grip quads (Silver Queen Chair, Alpine Meadows Chair) one T-bar (Home Run T-bar), three beginner magic carpets, and two tube lifts, on 3,269 acres (13 km2) of skiable terrain. The resort spans over four mountain faces: Vance Creek, Attridge, Silver Woods, and Putnam Creek.

Climate
Vernon Silver Star Lodge is a weather station near the summit of Silver Star Mountain, situated at an elevation of 1586 m (5203 ft). Vernon Silver Star Lodge has a subalpine climate (Köppen Dfc).

History
The Early Days

Vernon resident Bert Thorburn became the first person to ski in the Silver Star area in 1930. In 1946, the first rope tow was built on Burney Ridge, south of Vernon, above the lookout overlooking Kalamalka Lake, which is 800 ft (240 m) long. An old four-cylinder engine powered it. The cooling system was a 40-gallon water drum hooked up to the radiator. For $.50, visitors could ski all day.

A few years later, the ski hill was moved to Lavington on Michael Freeman's farm on the north slope above Highway 6, but skiing was limited to a few months of the year.

Initially, Silver Star was part of a Class A provincial park with no development allowed. Silver Star Sports got approval from the Province to build a ski hill in the Class A park in the summer of 1957. In 1958, the final three kilometers of the Silver Star road were pushed through to the village area.

Two rope-tow lifts and an A-frame day lodge were built in 1958. In 1959, a poma lift was installed from the 5,000-foot (1,500 m) level at the parking lot to the top of SilverStar Mountain, replacing the rope tow. In 1964, new T-bars were installed to replace the slower rope tows, and in 1965, a second A-frame structure was added to the day lodge. In 1967 and 1968, the Summit and Yellow Chairs (6,000 feet) built by GMD Mueller were installed.

SilverStar Mountain Resort Era

In 1981, Silver Star Sports became Silver Star Mountain Resorts Ltd. In 1983, the Putnam Station Hotel was built. From 1984 to 1990, many new hotels and amenities were built on the hill. In 1990, the Silver Queen chair was built by Yan and replaced by a Doppelmayr quad chair, and it now serves as the bunny hill. In 1991 the original Putnam Creek and Vance Creek express quads were built and opened up terrain. In 2001, the Schumann family, owners of Big White Ski Resort since 1985, reached an agreement in principle with the Judd Buchanan, the majority shareholder of Silver Star Mountain Resort, on the purchase of the majority assets of Silver Star Mountain Resort.

In 2002 Silver Star Mountain Resort invested in new chair lifts and opening up new terrain followed by further expansion in 2005/06 to open up the Silver Woods ski area. The Comet Express, made by Leitner-Poma and carrying a rated 2600 passengers per hour, is Canada's largest 6-passenger chairlift. 2005 saw the expansion of the Silver Star Bike Park to start using the Comet Six-Pack chairlift for biking.

In 2012, following the death of her father, Desmond Schumann, Jane Cann received 100% stake in Siver Star Resort. Cann's brother Peter Schumann was given ownership of Big White. Formerly operated as a joint venture, the two resorts became separate entities.

On July 14, 2018, Silver Star held an opening event for its new Gondola, the Schumann Summit Express. The Gondola was manufactured by Doppelmayr. It can transport skiers and mountain bikers from the mid-mountain village to the summit in 4.4 minutes.

On December 3, 2019 it was announced that SilverStar had been sold to Powdr Corporation, a Utah-based owner of ski resorts.
