Blatant racism on Wiki
I've initiated a complaint procedure against a Wiki member who's been stalking me around the pages of the website for some months now. I'd be interested in reading on the following page what your reactions are to the information provided and the ensuing discussion. Thanks. Peace 2 u.

Hey, Freddy. :-) Thanks for weighing in on the above matter.  (Are you really furious?) :-p deeceevoice 19:45, 29 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Lord, Freddy, you don't have to say anything about Mondays! About your comment re the situation w/Wareware. Yeah, it's pretty disgusting. I can't imagine how I would feel if I were sensitive about such things/took such insults personally. I'd probably leave and never return. As it is, it just makes me think he's human excrement -- something to be scraped off the heel of Wikipedia for good. Mental toughness: 's a beautiful thang. Knowing who you are? Priceless. :-) deeceevoice 19:54, 29 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Johnny Cochran
I ran into this problem with the article on Eddie Murphy. I simply argued successfully why his ethnicity should be included. I visited Johnny Cochran and saw at a glance that the article had been extensively edited, and "African-American" removed again. I reinserted it with a note that it Cochran's ethnicity was relevant because it influenced the kinds of cases he took and had a bearing on the controversy surrounding the Simpson trial. I'll watch the page from now on and see what happens. In fact, I'll check the talk page to see if it's been brought up there and add my two cents. Yes, sometimes Wikipedia really pisses me off. I had a run-in with some half-baked egocentric earlier today -- arrogant and stubborn and wrong as all get-out, talkin' about how his African-American "friends" object to being referred to as "blacks" (Gawd!) and taking offense to my comments when none was implied or intended. (Hell, when I intend to offend somebody, there's no grey area! :p) Just dealing with some white folks' hang-ups -- even in cyberspace -- is often more than I have patience for. deeceevoice 22:47, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Hey FuriousFreddy Sorry 2 hear about your racist stalker. don't make it worry you. People who are racist are suffering from there own low self esteem and anger. Anger is a negative thing (if your really furious you've already felt consequences) so don't even bother react to a racists actions - just keep on doing your thang. I've been searching wilkipedia with some interest, but as of yet lack confidence to produce own article. What do you think about the link betweeen black oppresssion, gangs and hip-hop???? I personally resent the portrayal of black people in the media and music world, but I don't get mad. If you hate something you need to change something.
 * I don't have a racist stalker; it just seems a lot (not most or many, just a lot) of Wikipedians in general are wither (a) closet racists, (b) uninformed about racial politics, or (c) just plain insensitive. This site needs healthy contributions from people of all ethnicitites, and, when talking about African-American related subject matter, most definitely African-Americans. --FuriousFreddy 14:47, 31 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Re: Impact (band)
Sorry about that - I'm on a bit of an anti-vandalism trip today and got a bit over-enthusiastic (must remember "More haste, fewer speedy deletions" or something...). I was going to put in the other redirects for you to say sorry but you'd already done it - clearly too organized for me! SteveW 17:59, 4 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Sly Stone
Re: my original stub -- when I started working on music stuff, there were no articles at all on Marvin Gaye, Aretha Franklin or Ray Charles!, so I was focused on filling some badly needed holes and took a few shortcuts... Great work on the Family Stone article! I'll try and take a closer look at it tonight or tomorrow. Tuf-Kat 20:34, Apr 4, 2005 (UTC)

"Gimme some cornbread an' buttuhmilk, pleeze!
Naw, I ain't hongry. :-p That was the name of one of Sly's band's first instrumentals while he was still a deejay at K-SOL in the summer of '63 and folks would call him up on-air to make requests: "Hello.  Slah, ah'd like tuh dedduhcayt." (Great times in the Bay Area way back in the day. :-p) Hey, Furious, visually, the article looks great. Love the photos and graphics. And it's interesting -- but it needs a little editorial attention. I think it's the second paragraph that discusses the constitution of the group. It's a little confusing -- run-on sentence 'n' all. You also state later on that someone was "forcefully" ejected from the group. I think you mean "forcibly." Do you mean they actually picked his butt up and hauled him outta the place/off the stage? Because that's the way it reads. Or, was he simply forced out of the group? I didn't read the entire thing -- I'm working on deadlines right now. But a good once over editorially wouldn't hurt. Also, watch the overuse of semicolons to connect two sentences instead of using a period to separate the two thoughts. The semicolon should be done only if the second thought is an immediate consequence or follow-on of the first. Will return to it when I have a little more time and weigh in on featured article status. Good luck with it. (I saw the featured article The Supremes the other day. The photo with the afros was da bomb.  I figured you probably had something to do with that.  If so, congrats.  Peace 2 u.  deeceevoice 21:56, 3 Apr 2005 (UTC)

No, actually I was born in Louisiana and grew up in the Midwest, but I had/have relatives out that way and spent some time in Cali in the summer of '63. Samoan street gangs in Frisco -- wild stuff. Almost as wild as that mess with Sly's band. Dang! Sounds like Jerry Springer stuff. I don't know, though. You might consider adding it. It's an interesting aspect of the band's group dynamics. But I wouldn't include it without some information on the nature of the dispute that led to it. (Just more ego/testosterone?)

Anyway, as usual, great job. :)

FYI, I hijacked the Supremes album cover photo and replaced one of Angela Davis for Afro. Them some ba-aad 'fros. :) deeceevoice 07:12, 6 Apr 2005 (UTC)

I'll Be There
Hey Freddy, what's up? To your question asked on the I'll Be There (Mariah Carey song) deletion page, yes, I'll Be There is one of Mariah's hit singles. It was a big hit for her when it came out, and today it ranks among one of her more succesful and well known singles. It has appeared on her Greatest Hits album, and even her album of #1 singles, #1's. She also sings it often on tour. If Mariah had just sang I'll Be There, and it wasn't released, I'd agree with you on merging, but it has been released as a single, and took on a life of its own, and I believe merging would bring down the quality of both articles. We're also doing a wikiproject, not on *Every* song (as some people like to believe), but on all her singles. If the two articles are merged, it would really ruin the flow of the project. Thanks for your time. OmegaWikipedia 06:42, 28 May 2005 (UTC)

Yeah, I've seen the compound box thing. I don't think that's exactly a bad thing, but the articles do seem relatively sparse and that's good for it, and works with those singles. The single structure we've adopted for the Mariah articles are a bit different though (with the info about the charts and remix, etc), and I really think they would mesh. And we do have about 50 or so articles for her singles, and I'd hate to have some of them be inconsistent in structure because they had some stuff about other versions in them.

Seeing as this isn't official policy yet, and I've explained the circumstances, would you mind letting the articles stand on their own? There are already references being made referring each article to each other. And we have had a case in the past, where another cover version by Mariah, was put on the deletion page, with many suggestions to merge, but in the end, the two articles were allowed to co-exist. I hope I'm not coming off too forward, I would just hate to have these two articles merged, when I believe in this case, they can stand on their own. And I believe we are trying to work to elevate Mariah's status, and as for the Single Boxes, that wasn't my decision, but the decision of someone helping me with the project.

Hi, Freddy, I'm all done copyediting now, hope I didn't edit conflict you! The History looks a little scary. :-( Bishonen | talk 19:28, 28 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Glad to see this back on FAC. I voted; hope it makes it this time.  Is it my imagination or were there unusually critical objections to this article?  Oh, well, they *have* resulted in improvement, so all's well that...oh, whatever! Quill 03:34, 29 May 2005 (UTC)

Thanks
Thanks for understanding, Freddy. Seeing as how you started the deletion page, can you remove it, or does it have to go through the whole process? I'm a bit worried as some posters here seem to have a really biased opinion against these articles and have been trying to alter them negatively a few times. Anyway, if you have the power to do it, I'd appreciate it, thanks again. OmegaWikipedia 20:58, 28 May 2005 (UTC)

Poor Petie
Thanks! :) --FuriousFreddy 21:12, 28 May 2005 (UTC)

 * One question, though. I noticed you commented this out:
 * and many of the kids who watched the shorts never realized that many of them had been made almost a quarter century beforehand...
 * ...is there a way we can attribute this, as there are scores of people who think The Little Rascals were made in the 1950s for television, my mother being one of them....and wait, why delete Petie from the main cast list?--FuriousFreddy 21:30, 28 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Freddy, because it was described not as the main cast list but a list of child actors—a dog isn't a child actor. That's the only reason. I was sorry to take out Pete, maybe the list could be redefined instead?
 * Yeah, I commented it out rather than delete it because I was hoping it could be attributed. I don't really see how, though. I bet your mom wouldn't appreciate it if you put her phone number in the references section for people to check with her...! I suppose Maltin and Bann don't make the claim? --Bishonen | talk 22:57, 28 May 2005 (UTC)

Bugs
Hi FuriousFreddy. I agree that the Bugs page should redirect to Bug (disambiguation) rather than Bugs Bunny or VW Beetle! I'm curious about someone typing in Bugs for the British TV programme though. If I typed in Bugs and was redirected to Bug it would suggest there's no article about it... --Sp82 07:41, 31 May 2005 (UTC)

Long time no talk. Just thought I'd drop by and give my regards. I've seen your tracks here and there on the site, so I figure you're back to feeling like your old self again. If so, that's good. :) Lately, I've mostly been spending time dealing w/"them people" on Afrocentrism, but it looks like it's basically died down to mostly grumblings on the discussion page (finally).

Disputes in hip-hop (beef)
As beef (music) is up for deletion, I was thinking of starting an article expanding the material from hip hop on beefs, and I'm looking for collaborators who might know about famous beefs from the nineties and beyond. I'd happily start the article and write about notable eighties beefs.

I think this might make a good topic, as it might be a useful resource to help people understand the importance of beefs between artists. That is, unless it just sparks off a 2pac versus Biggie revert war :)illWill 20:54, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)

 * Thanks for the link, that's a great article there - I'm amazed that I managed to miss it. Sometimes I'm a bit lazy scanning older articles, but it's great to be surprised by a huge entry on such an interesting subject. There's a few little things I might add there when I've got time, but it's such a good entry that i don't think it needs any major work. illWill 23:36, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Well, that was, uh, pretty tiresome. Guess that's one dead horse by now...

Can you intergrated this into Captain Marvel?
I was wondering if you could find a way to integrate this trivia into the Captain Marvel article you've done so much work on. It's not obvious to me where in the article it would fit, without interupting the 'flow'.
 * Fawcett Publications' founder was nicknamed Captain Billy, which may have inspired the names Billy Batson and Captain Marvel. Fawcett's ealiest magazine was titled Whiz Bang, which likely inspired the title Whiz Comics. ike9898 18:49, Jun 22, 2005 (UTC)

adminship and a favor
I'm about to take a wikivacation. Would you do me a favor and put music of Yemen on your watchlist? There's an anon (talk - contributions) that has been insistently adding presumably copyrighted material. He's been warned three times, so if it happens again, you can leave a note at the Administrator's Noticeboard and someone will probably block him. On the other hand, I'm nominating you for adminship, so maybe you'll be able to block him yourself. You'll need to accept or reject the nomination at Requests for adminship/FuriousFreddy. Tuf-Kat 23:03, Jun 22, 2005 (UTC)

 * I noticed that on Tuf-Kat's page you said that you had accepted the nom, but on the WP:RFA it appears that you have not yet accepted. Just thought you should know.  Guettarda 04:45, 23 Jun 2005 (UTC)

It's Not That Deep
You need to calm down. You're acting way too dramatic about this. How is my formatting inconsistent? Because I list the single formats differently than you? The way they list it on that page is not even how you list it. If I created a Mariah Carey project page would that calm you down? For a song like I'll Be There, the sections can be small, yes, while as for other singles, the info on music videos and remixes can be big, so to maintain consistentcy thats where Im coming from.

I'm erronously creditng singles on which Mariah credits on as her own singles? First of all, someone else helped create the tables in the first place, so that is not something that I even noticed when editing. As I didn't even put that heading, if I had known, I would had corrected it. I didn't go out maliciously like you accused me of to make sure that Mariah got credit and the others didn't.

No, this doesn't "essentialy boil down to is the prevention of allowing anyone besides me and the other Carey fan Wikipedian from making any substantial edits to these articles." This situation is not out of hand. That is not the case at all, so please stop trying to make it something that it's not.

Tons of people edit these articles. I don't really care. I edited back the article you edited because you pratically did a major revamp of the whole article that I thought lost base with the consistency of these articles. I know you make single articles too. If I were to majorly revamp your articles, would you just sit back and accept my edits? I'd think you'd like to have a say in how you think it should be like it.

There are other collections of single articles out there for artists like Britney Spears, The Beatles, Ashlee Simpson, etc. Each of them is different in their own ways, different from mine, different from yours. And that's the same case with these articles. One shouldn't edit all articles just because it doesn't appeal to their personal style. OmegaWikipedia 21:57, 23 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Disney DVD
I got a good chuckle out of your vote on Votes for deletion/Disney DVD. "uses the same MPEG-2 format, AC3 files, and interface design as a duck, and is for all intents and purposes compatible with duck-playing devices" indeed. Cheers! — Gwalla | Talk 21:12, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Reply to Reply 1
You keep saying I list things differently from the official project page. What exactly is that different? We have the infobox, we have the chronology too. I am definitely trying to keep things consistent too and also looked at other articles before I even started writing them. Like you said, every set of articles will be slightly different, just as you added the sections of stuff on the b-sides and the credits, while these articles do have sections on the charts and the remixes. But besides that, these articles are all fairly consistent.

Oh, I definitely am very open to suggestions. I know the articles are from being done or complete. I think there's definitely been some misunderstanding on both sides going on here. There are some things that I think could be switched around a bit maybe, but at the same time, I do want to keep things easy to read, and not consolidate all sections up.

From superheroes to super cool
Hey, Furious. :) I'm finally to the point with cool (aesthetic) where I'm satisfied enough with it to let it go for a while.  (I still want to do something about cool and "bad nigguhs" and all that implies vis-a-vis pop culture appropriations, but I have no idea when I'll get around to it.)  But I come to you in search of a photo.  I need a photo of "cool."  And that, of course, means someone BLACK. (Contrary to the ridiculous suggestions proffered by some on the article's talk page. You should read that thing. It's a trip in and of itself.) I'm thinkin' Miles, or Monk -- but whoever it is, they have to be wearing a mean pair of shades.  Got any ideas?  Thanx. Peace.  deeceevoice 09:05, 10 July 2005 (UTC)

Someone, in their stubborn ignorance, has nominated Cool (aesthetic) for deletion, alleging its contents are "original research" -- which the article most definitely is not.

Talk:Venezuelan War of Independence

Article's name
In the spanish wiki we are using the more conventional use for Venezuelan War of Independence (see Independencia de Venezuela), that goes since 1810 until 1830 (or maybe 1824, with the victory of the republican army). The interwiki is then setted from this page to that of independence. In the english wiki there's not such a page, the closest is Bolivar's War, but it also includes other independence processes. Maybe a new article is needed. --Jdiazch 14:43, 20 July 2005 (UTC)

Accuracy
As I am by no means an expert on this and I could have misunderstood but certain points in this article seem to contradict the one on Bolívar's War, in particular the time around 1811 and 1812. In this article it sounds like a bloodless truce has been reached and Bolívar has received an official post in the Venezuelan army and shopped Miranda to the Spanish, whereas in the other article it seems that he had by this time fled after Miranda was defeated by the Spanish and captured. It would be good if someone with far better knowledge than me could clarify this as I think these are really important events in history. Cameronlad 10:05, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

Changes
I've rewroted the article so it can fit all the war(1811-1823), instead of being dispersed everywhere like it currently is;i'll keep writing it when i get better source--Andres rojas22 15:16, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

Emanuel Feuermann

Emanuel Feuermann (November 22, 1902 – May 25, 1942) was an internationally celebrated cellist in the first half of the 20th century.

Life
Feuermann was born in 1902 in Kolomyja, Galicia, Austro-Hungarian Empire (now Kolomyia, Ukraine) to Jewish parents. Both of his parents were amateur musicians. His father, who played the violin and cello, was his first teacher. His older brother Sigmund was also musically talented, and their little sister, Sophie (born January 1908) was the piano prodigy in the family. Their father decided to move the family to Vienna in 1907 for Sigmund to start his professional career there. At the age of nine, Emanuel received lessons from Friedrich Buxbaum, principal cello of the Vienna Philharmonic, and then studied with Anton Walter at the University of Music and Performing Arts Vienna. In February 1914, the eleven-year-old prodigy made his concert debut, playing Joseph Haydn's Cello Concerto in D major with the Vienna Philharmonic under Felix Weingartner.

In 1917, Feuermann went to Leipzig to study with legendary cellist Julius Klengel. In 1919 cellist Friedrich Wilhelm Ludwig Grützmacher (1866–1919), the nephew of Friedrich Grützmacher, died, and Klengel recommended Feuermann for Grützmacher's position at the Gürzenich Conservatory in Cologne. He was also appointed principal cellist of the Gürzenich Orchestra, by its conductor (who was also the conservatory director), Hermann Abendroth. Feuermann became cellist of the Bram Elderling Quartet. At that time, he also joined a short-lived piano trio with his brother and pianist-conductor Bruno Walter. In 1929, Feuermann became professor at the Musikhochschule in Berlin and taught there for the next four years. He performed during this time with violinists Carl Flesch, Szymon Goldberg, Joseph Wolfsthal and composer Paul Hindemith, the latter playing viola in a string trio with Feuermann and Wolfsthal (later Goldberg; see below). He also performed with Jascha Heifetz, William Primrose and Arthur Rubinstein.

On April 3, 1933, the newly installed Nazi regime dismissed him from his position at the Berlin Conservatory due to his Jewish heritage. He moved to London along with Goldberg and Hindemith, where the trio recorded Beethoven's early Serenade in D major for string trio, Op. 8, and a string trio by Hindemith, for Columbia Records. He toured Japan and the United States then returned to London, where he married Eva Reifenberg (a cousin of Katja Andy) in 1935, with whom he had a daughter, Monica. Following the premiere of Arnold Schoenberg's Cello Concerto under Sir Thomas Beecham he lived for some time in Zürich, but happened to be in Vienna at the time of the 1938 Anschluss. Violinist Bronisław Huberman helped Feuermann and his family escape to British Palestine. From there they moved to the United States later that year.

He taught privately, and at the Curtis Institute of Music in Philadelphia, until his death. During these years he collaborated with the pianist Vladimir Sokoloff. Among his notable pupils were Bernard Greenhouse, Suzette Forgues Halasz, Florence Hooton, Robert Lamarchina, Alan Shulman, David Soyer and August Wenzinger. In the United States, he made several celebrated chamber-music recordings with Heifetz, Rubinstein and others. His relationship with Hindemith suffered when the latter chose Gregor Piatigorsky to premiere his Cello Concerto.

Feuermann died in New York City due to complications during surgery on May 25, 1942, at the age of 39.

Evaluation
Klengel wrote of Feuermann, "Of all those who have been entrusted to my guardianship, there has never been such a talent...our divinely favoured artist and lovable young man." Heifetz declared that talent like Feuermann's comes once every one hundred years. Indeed, after Feuermann's untimely death it took seven years for Heifetz to collaborate with another cellist, Gregor Piatigorsky.

Artur Rubinstein was equally emphatic: "He became for me the greatest cellist of all times, because I did hear Pablo Casals at his best. He (Casals) had everything in the world, but he never reached the musicianship of Feuermann. And this is a declaration." Both Heifetz and Rubinstein were longtime trio partners with Feuermann. During his first tour of the United States in 1935–36, Feuermann reaped enthusiastic reviews from music critics. After a 1938 Proms performance in London, critic Reid Steward of The Strad wrote "I do not think there can any longer be doubt that Feuermann is the greatest living cellist, Casals alone excepted..."

The honorary pallbearers at his funeral included some of the greatest musicians of the time: pianists Rudolf Serkin and Artur Schnabel, violinists Mischa Elman and Bronisław Huberman, and conductors George Szell, Eugene Ormandy and Arturo Toscanini. During the procession Toscanini broke down crying, exclaiming, "This is murder!" In 1954, when asked which cellists he particularly admired, Casals said, "What a great artist Feuermann was! His early death was a great loss to music."

Feuermann's cello
In 1929, Feuermann purchased a cello made by David Tecchler in Rome in 1741. From 1932, he also owned an instrument made by Venetian master luthier Domenico Montagnana in 1735. This instrument, known as the Feuermann cello, is presently in the hands of a Swiss cellist and collector. It was larger and wider than the Tecchler.

Feuermann later owned the De Munck Stradivarius cello of 1730. It was previously owned by the distinguished Brazilian-American cellist, Aldo Parisot, and was on extended loan from the Nippon Foundation to cellist Steven Isserlis from 1998 to 2011, and it is currently on loan to Camille Thomas since 2019.

Feuermann is also said to have owned and played a Goffriller cello later owned by American cellist Joseph Schuster; from Schuster, it was passed on to Jascha Silberstein.

Talk:Alfredo Ottaviani

Untitled
The link from Franjo Šeper points to an empty page. Fixing the link to Alfredo Cardinal Ottaviani makes the naming in the succession list inconsistent.

Wouldn't a redirect link make more sense here? - ClaudeMuncey

I've removed this page's entry from Requested moves due to a lack of consensus on the move. If this changes, feel free to add another request. --Lox (t,c) 19:32, 10 January 2006 (UTC)

United Press Internationl reports that Ottaviani was elected Pope on October 26, 1958, which invalidates the election of Angelo Roncalli as Pope John XXIII to days later.

I just pulled this from the article -- this is a variant on a favorite urban legend of sedevecantists: that John XXIII was not validly elected. Usually, the real pope was supposed to be Siri. This grew out of a real incident at the 1958 conclave where the smoke looked white when it was supposed to be black, confusing everyone. This was debunked decades ago, but it still makes the rounds ClaudeMuncey 13:43, 28 September 2005 (UTC)

This makes no sense
The article says "Ottaviani, while opposed to the separation of Church and State and granting equal rights to all religions, supported religious tolerance—suppressing public manifestations of non-Catholic religions when possible". This makes no sense. It seems to be defining religious tolerance as intolerance. Jhobson1 13:18, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

 * In earlier days when Catholics meant "tolerance" they meant charity and love you show to something wrong or irritating. The argument goes that you only use the word "tolerate" for something you basically find in error or bad. People don't usually say "let's be tolerant to democracy" or "you should tolerate his good hygiene." So from that perspective members of other religions were to be treated with love and charity, but forbidden from public recognition as they were in error. Privately they could do whatever they wished as long as this did not break the rules of society. (Most nations still would supress religions if they do that. If a religion required members to take hashish they would likely face some suppression in the US) Just like a scientist may tolerate an individual who believes in Intelligent Design, but support the suppression of ID in public schools as being pseudoscientific error. I admit though that kind of strictness is something I'm glad I never lived under. There are times I worry that makes me a bad Catholic, but I don't think so.--T. Anthony 05:58, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

Saint Faustina Kowalska
"In 1959, under Ottaviani's direction, the newly appointed Pope John XXIII was presented with a list of books to be placed on the Index of Forbidden Books and he signed the decree to that effect. Sister Faustina Kowalska's diary was among the banned books, and it remained on the Index for almost 20 years."

"20 years"? That's impossible, 'cause the Index was officially abolished by pope Paul VI, methinks, in 1964. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.98.100.197 (talk) 05:28, 26 February 2010 (UTC)

I do not know about the specific case of the diary, but the Index was never abolished. When the Holy Office was renamed to Congregation for the doctrine of the faith they were not tasked with enforcing the Index so it fell out of use. Saying the Index was "abolished" would imply that they actively decided to openly suppress it, but what actually happened was that it fall away during a beuracratic shuffle. Many of the books that were on the Index are still considered by the RC Church as leading to heresy and therefor dangerous to people's souls.Wowaconia (talk) 21:04, 13 February 2013 (UTC)
 * A Notification of 14 June 1966 from the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith announced that, while the Index maintained its moral force, in that it taught Christians to beware, as required by the natural law itself, of those writings that could endanger faith and morality, it no longer had the force of ecclesiastical positive law with the associated penalties: "Nuntiat Indicem suum vigorem moralem servare, quatenus Christifidelium conscientiam docet, ut ab illis scriptis, ipso iure naturali exigente, caveant, quae fidem ac bonos mores in discrimen adducere possint; eundem tamen non amplius vim legis ecclesiasticae habere cum adiectis censuris" (Acta Apostolicae Sedis, Vol. 58, 1966, p. 445). The text can be consulted also in Kurt Wilhelm, Wissenschaft des Judentums im deutschen Sprachbereich: ein Querschnitt, Volume 1,ISBN 978-3-16-821152-5. Esoglou (talk) 10:35, 14 February 2013 (UTC)

Cardinal Ottaviani believed in the Divine Mercy and St. Faustina
Cardinal Ottaviani believed in the Divine Mercy, and encouraged the canonization of Saint Faustina Kowalska. Valtorta promoters have falsely claimed that Cardinal Ottaviani got John XXIII to put Saint Faustina’s writings on the Index. That completely untrue story has been spread widely over the internet by promoters of the discredited false visionary Valtorta. Cardinal Ottaviani believed in Saint Faustina and the Divine Mercy. The Marian Fathers are the world experts on Saint Faustina. Their website says: “Informative Process of Sr. Faustina's life and virtues is opened …encouraged by Cardinal Ottaviani, the Prefect of the Holy Office.” http://thedivinemercy.org/message/history/timeline.php So Cardinal Ottaviani encouraged the opening of the canonization process of Saint Faustina. Other sources mention Cardinal Ottaviani supporting the Divine Mercy. E.g., Catherine Odell, in her biography of Saint Faustina, wrote: “Cardinal Ottaviani, the Secretary of the Sacred Congregation, urged the archbishop to open an investigation quickly - before all the witnesses to Faustina’s life were dead. (Faustina: The Apostle of Divine Mercy by Catherine M. Odell. 1998. Our Sunday Visitor.(IN) p.158 ISBN 0-87973-923-1) So Cardinal Ottaviani believed in the Divine Mercy and Saint Faustina, and was actually involved in opening the canonization process for Saint Faustina. The Divine Mercy was never on the Index of Forbidden Books. That completely untrue story has been spread widely over the internet by promoters of the discredited false visionary Valtorta. Valtorta is not connected to The Divine Mercy. The Valtorta writings were put on the Index of Forbidden Books by the Vatican. Valtorta promoters have spread the completely untrue story that The Divine Mercy was also on the Index, because they are trying to persuade people to accept the banned Valtorta writings. The Valtorta writings really are on the Index of Forbidden Books. The Catholic Church has decreed that Catholics are forbidden to read the Valtorta writings.

There is a Vatican decree which proves that the Valtorta writings are on the Index of Forbidden Books. Here is a verifiable link which has a photographic reproduction of the exact decree condemning the Valtorta writings: http://www.traditioninaction.org/bkreviews/A_042_Valtorta.htm Valtorta promoters falsely claimed that the Diary was put on the Index on the same day as the Valtorta writings, in the same decree. This is totally untrue. The decree does not mention the Divine Mercy or Saint Faustina at all. It is just about the condemned Valtorta writings.

The Divine Mercy was never on the Index of Forbidden Books. Saint Faustina’s writings were never on the Index of Forbidden Books.

Books which were put on the Index of Forbidden Books have been listed in alphabetical order by author, by J. Martinez de Bujanda in his book, Index Librorum Prohibitorum: 1600-1966. On p.489, it lists the name Kortholt. Saint Faustina Kowalska’s surname would have come next after Kortholt. Her name is not there at all. Saint Faustina Kowalska was never even mentioned on the Index of Forbidden Books.

Fortunately, the relevant page from the Bujanda book can even be viewed online for free at a google books preview page here:

http://books.google.co.uk/books?id=Tie0hkcrpg4C&pg=PA472&lpg=PA472&dq=J.+Martinez+de+Bujanda,+Index+Librorum+Prohibitorum&source=bl&ots=Hs5bY9R936&sig=jl6SsJsIJF6C0GdIUZ_Qv5DXeJA&hl=en&sa=X&ei=zXhjUdvYDvSo0AXMmoGIBw&ved=0CFUQ6AEwCDgK#v=onepage&q=J.%20Martinez%20de%20Bujanda%2C%20Index%20Librorum%20Prohibitorum&f=false

Also, you can read the relevant page of the Bujanda book if you copy-and-paste the following words into the google search engine: Index Librorum Prohibitorum 489 Kortholt. The Bujanda book, Index Librorum Prohibitorum:1600-1966, is the first link in the google search results for that search. Then scroll down to p. 489 of the book, and look at the name Kortholt. Saint Faustina Kowalska is not listed there. Alphabetically, the name Kowalska would come directly after Kortholt. Saint Faustina’s writings are not listed there. Saint Faustina Kowalska and the Divine Mercy were never on the Index of Forbidden Books.

Also, this website: http://search.beaconforfreedom.org/search/censored_publications/result.html?author=&cauthor=&title=&country=8052&language=&censored_year=&censortype=&published_year=&censorreason=&Search=Search has a list of books which were put on the Index of Forbidden Books. Saint Faustina Kowalska is not listed there because the Divine Mercy was never on the Index of Forbidden Books.

Valtorta is not connected to the Divine Mercy. Valtorta was a bogus, pretend visionary who is condemned by the Catholic Church. Valtorta’s writings are filled with obvious theological errors. Also, Valtorta ridiculously claimed that screwdrivers were being used in the first century A.D., when in reality screwdrivers were not invented until hundreds of years later. There are many other untrue claims by Valtorta, which I can also disprove. The Catholic Church condemned Valtorta’s writings. Even reading Valtorta is condemned by the Catholic Church as mortally sinful. Valtorta is not connected to the Divine Mercy.

The Divine Mercy is an Approved Devotion of the Catholic Church, and Saint Faustina is very deeply venerated by Catholics. Cardinal Ottaviani believed in the Divine Mercy. Catholics believe that canonizations are infallible. Saint Faustina and the Divine Mercy were never on the Index of Forbidden Books. The Divine Mercy Researcher (talk) 09:33, 5 July 2013 (UTC)
 * The article neither denies nor affirms that "Cardinal Ottaviani believed in the Divine Mercy and St. Faustina". If you want a Wikipedia article to state that he did, you must present a reliable published source that says so (read WP:OR), not an argument of your own invention (read WP:SYNTH).
 * If you want to remove from the article the statement that in 1959 the Holy Office forbade circulation of images and writings promoting devotion to Divine Mercy in the forms proposed by Saint Faustina, you must first present here on the talk page convincing proof that the Acta Apostolicae Sedis (the official bulletin of the Holy See) is not a reliable source for that statement.

Edmond Jurien de La Gravière

Jean Pierre Edmond Jurien de La Gravière (19 November 1812 in Brest, Finistère – 5 March 1892) was a French admiral, son of Admiral Pierre Roch Jurien de La Gravière, who served through the Revolutionary and Napoleonic wars and was a peer of France under Louis-Philippe.

Biography
He entered the navy in 1827, was made a commander in 1841, and captain in 1850. During the Crimean War he commanded a ship in the Black Sea. He was promoted to be rear-admiral on 1 December 1855, and appointed to the command of a squadron in the Adriatic in 1859, when he absolutely sealed the Austrian ports with a close blockade. In October 1861 he was appointed to command the squadron in the Gulf of Mexico, and two months later the expedition against Mexico.

On 15 January 1862 he was promoted to be vice-admiral. During the Franco-Prussian War of 1870 he had command of the French Mediterranean fleet, and in 1871 he was appointed director of charts. As having commanded in chief before the enemy, the age-limit was waived in his favor, and he was continued on the active list. Jurien died on 4 March 1892.

He was an author of voluminous works on naval history and biography, most of which first appeared in the Revue des deux mondes. Among the most noteworthy of these are Guerres maritimes sous la république et sous l’empire, which was translated by Lord Dunsany under the title of Sketches of the Last Naval War (1848); La Marine d'autrefois (1865), largely autobiographical; and La Marine d'aujourd'hui (1872). In 1866 he was elected a member of the Academy.

Talk:Samadhi

Help required on Samadhi article
Copied from User talk:Prasangika37 Hello Prasangika. thanks for you message on the Samadhi talk page. I am not very sound in terms of the Wikipedia policies and have started contributing very recently. It would really be very helpful for me if you can guide me on how to deal with the conflict on the article. Please have a look at https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Samadhi&oldid=634699711. This is what the article was like after the information being submitted by various authors. This has got references form the books/articles publish by renowned publications and very few are from the primary sources. But instead of making changes one by one after discussion, all the information was removed by Jonathan. My main aim was to educate the readers with the physical aspect of Samadhi as it is considered by many to be just a mental state and nothing more. Also, by reading the current information being shared by Jonathan it seems like he is to much influences by Buddhism and is intentionally trying the shadow the Hindu perspective of Samadhi by referring it to be just a copy of the Buddhist texts. Please guide.UnusualExplorer (talk) 12:49, 22 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Hi UnEx; here are some responses:
 * I've pointed out to you before that your additions are not "encyclopedical". Please read WP:RS to learn more.
 * As for samadhi being "just a mental state": let it go. You know, I know, Prasangika knows, and many others know, that "it" "works". Wikipedia is not the place to fight over such trivia. If anyone wants to argue that samadhi is "just" a mental state, they'll have to provide WP:RS too.
 * Regarding Buddhism: I think the sources I've given there are clear. Read Bronkhorst, "The Two Traditions of Meditation in Ancient India"; it's very informative. A pdf can easily be found at the web. Vetter is also very interesting; his "ideas and practices of early Buddhism" can also easily be found at the web. Funny thing is, according to Vetter, the Buddha himself probably "only" practiced dhyana/samadhi, and deemed that to be "liberating" - a "Hindu" stance which is criticised by many contemporary Buddhists! Hey, and Buddhism is Indian, isn't it?!? Read Geoffrey Samuel, "The origins of Yoga and Tantra", for the common history of Buddhism and Hinduism.
 * Best regards,  Joshua Jonathan   -  Let's talk!   13:17, 22 November 2014 (UTC)

But alas, let's compare 13:59, 30 October 2014 and 09:27, 22 November 2014: So, concluding: I've removed a lot of WP:OR, and added sourced details on the stages of samadhi in both Buddhism and Patanjali's Yoga sutras. See also the section on "Ananda and asmita"; that's the kind of information which really adds a new perspective. Joshua Jonathan  -  Let's talk!   14:34, 22 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Lead: shortened; only the most relevant info; removed weazle-words and new age-jargon
 * Nomenclature, orthography and etymology: split into "definitions" and "etymology"
 * Hinduism: removed unsourced info; merged sections, added comprehensive backgoround and overview of Patanjali; added info on kevala and sahaja
 * Samadhi a state of physical transcendence: removed. This is WP:OR.
 * It starts with a "research program", which is UnEp own "research agenda": "With modern science being skeptical about Samadhi and sometimes finds itself helpless to explain the physical state of a yogi in Samadhi, there is ample information available in the ancient scriptures which has been observed to be true in case of many saints in recent history. The modern Hindu saints/scholars have also written extensively to guide the modern scientific community on the phenomenon of Samadhi." Not only is it unsourced, it's also incorrect: there's abundant research on meditation and brain-activity.
 * Vivekananda is as primary as a source can be
 * Scriptural references: the use of primary sources should be minimal; the interpretation od primary sources is to be avoided
 * Scientific case studies: WP:UNDUE. Why this one study on one person?
 * Instances of samadhi from recent history: again, WP:OR: interpretation of primary sources
 * Myths: also WP:OR
 * Buddhism:
 * Replaced info on dhyana by a lsit of the jhanas, and the interplay of dhyana and insight; moved info from Samadhi (Buddhism to this article, minus the unsourced text
 * UnusualExplorer, I get that you prefer the other article. From one point of view, I find it a little more interesting to read and a little more helpful. But, JoshuaJonathan is correct that it is lacking from a variety of points of view in regards to encyclopedia-level quality. What I would suggest is to find attributions to the various yogi's you're speaking about that have been explained by other scholars, as explained in WP:RS talking about secondary sources. By doing this, you will be able to include this information in a concise, clear manner while still having it cited properly. I would do this for you but alas don't have the time. It shouldn't be terribly complicated. Look up on google books scholars talking about Samadhi and you'll find some good stuff to include. I do agree with the mass changes as a little bit sad instead of gradual alteration, but perhaps you could change back anything in particular you find lacking here? I can't imagine you think ALL of the changes are bad, no? Prasangika37 (talk) 00:06, 24 November 2014 (UTC)

Not NPOV yet
I just came here to look at some good definitions of the concept of Samadhi, and what I encountered was an article that spent a huge amount of time going on about how Buddhists came up with it all and that was... completely unnecessary? It's like there's one or several editors here trying to prove the superiority of Buddhism, like it's some competition. For instance, in the section about Patanjali's Yoga Sutras, I expected to see what the Yoga Sutras say on Samadhi, not whether the techniques or the language were derived from Buddhist practices. That's the sort of thing that might be mentioned at the end of that section, if at all. There's just so much pointless Buddhist willy-waving here that it's not relevant to the discussion of Samadhi itself--all I get from this article is that wow, there's some Buddhist who's really desperate to prove himself, with some sort of power complex. And that's not NPOV. (Or very Buddhist, for that matter...) --Snowgrouse (talk) 09:32, 8 December 2015 (UTC)

More meaning for samaadhi
Samadhi is usually translated as concentration. but it is misleading one who knows only English.the pali meaning is therefore not convinced properly. This may be due to initial mistake done by Thomas Rhys Davids samaadhi is (sinhala -චිත්තස්ස එකග්ගතා) unification of the mind ,cognitive consonance not the cognitive dissonance.
 * 1) Actually Samadhi needs (NIMITHTHA නිමිත්ත) where you focus your attention on ,not some thing outside ,
 * 2) withdrawal of attention from external things ,guarding the senses.
 * 3) And also guarding thoughts of past ,future and present.
 * 4) maintaince of concentration all the time on (NIMITHTHA නිමිත්ත).-- Rs  Ekanayake  02:37, 18 August 2016 (UTC)

Proposal to merge Mahāsamādhi into Samādhi (Implemented)
Even even ignoring the fact "mahāsamādhi" itself literally means "great samādhi", Mahāsamādhi reads:
 * "According to this belief, a realized and enlightened (Jivanmukta), yogi (male) or yogini (female) who has attained the state of nirvikalpa samādhi, can consciously exit from their body and attain enlightenment, often while in a deep, conscious meditative state."

In context, the "deep, conscious meditative state" here is samādhi, which is explicitly mentioned earlier in the same sentence. Not only does it explicitly refer to samādhi, it refers to a particular form of it which is described with a subsection under Samadhi which provides essential context absent from Mahāsamādhi. Further, the Mahāsamādhi is a stub and has been for over a decade, which clearly demonstrates it does not need a separate article. Thus, I suggest they be merged with Mahāsamādhi redirecting to an appropriate section of Samadhi. Scyrme (talk) 15:12, 8 June 2021 (UTC)
 * Since no objections were raised, I've implemented this merge by restoring the redirect. Scyrme (talk) 22:22, 3 July 2021 (UTC)

Merge from Aimlessness (Buddhism) (Implemented)
Aimlessness (Buddhism) is a neglected stub and has been so for years. Before my recent minor edits, it had last been edited in 2019. I think it qualifies as a redundant fork and so would be better merged into an appropriate subsection of Samadhi. The merge would also open up the option of properly covering the other two of the three forms of samādhi mentioned in Aimlessness (Buddhism).

Additionally, at present, Aimlessness (Buddhism) covers only the Zen/Thien Buddhist perspective, but this group of three forms of samādhi is also attested in the Madhyamaka and Tibetan Mahāyana Buddhist traditions where it seems to be very different from the interpretation described by the article/references in Aimlessness (Buddhism). (See: ) I think this must be reflected in the merge if/when it takes place. ie. Concentration on aimlessness (apraṇihita-samādhi) must not be sub-sectioned under Samadhi, or at least not entirely. Scyrme (talk) 01:42, 20 June 2021 (UTC)
 * Do you mind pings? Apologies if you do. I just thought you may be able to help here. Scyrme (talk) 01:43, 20 June 2021 (UTC)

 * Pings are fine. Aimlessness may be WP:UNDUE for samadhi, other than mentioning it shortly. I'm not sure if aimlessness fits samadi; it also reminds me of dhyana and of Tathātā. Maybe that would be the correct approach: not ask what to do with the aimlessness article, but ask what's relevant for the samadhi-article. I think I'd leave the aimlessness-article for what it is, and concentrate on samadhi. what do you think?  Joshua Jonathan  - Let's talk!  04:56, 20 June 2021 (UTC)

 * I would merge, honestly not sure why there is an article for aimlessness, it doesn't seem to be doing much. It would be good to discuss the three samadhis under the main samadhi article. ☸Javierfv1212☸ 21:42, 21 June 2021 (UTC)

 * I'm not sure why you think it might be undue weight. I don't see how it might compromise the neutrality of the article; if anything the Buddhist section of Samadhi currently relies heavily on Buddhaghosa's perspective (although I'm aware that Buddhagosa is to some extent an example of Theravada more broadly). Several Mahayana views are mentioned but they're not really described as Buddhagosa's perspective is. So it seems like adding another perspective would help with neutrality rather than detract from it. Samadhi as a whole currently leans a bit toward a Hindu perspective, so adding to the Buddhist side might help with neutrality on that front too. I also don't think apraṇihita-samādhi etc. count as a fringe or small minority view. It's evidently somewhat widespread in Buddhism, being discussed in the work of Nagarjuna and Thich Nhat Hanh, who are prominent figures in two distinct Buddhist traditions. Seems like a perspective that's worth including in the main article. It would be a better place for the topic of apraṇihita-samādhi than a separate article where it's removed from context and neglected as it has been until now. Scyrme (talk) 01:50, 22 June 2021 (UTC)
 * Do you still maintain an objection or are we now in agreement? Scyrme (talk) 00:13, 28 June 2021 (UTC)
 * Go ahead. Joshua Jonathan  - Let's talk!  03:38, 28 June 2021 (UTC)

 * I've now implemented this merge, with some additions to give some coverage to all three rather than only aimlessness. Scyrme (talk) 22:22, 3 July 2021 (UTC)

Regulatory offence

In criminal law, a regulatory offence or quasi-criminal offence is a class of crime in which the standard for proving culpability has been lowered so a mens rea (Law Latin for "guilty mind") element is not required. Such offences are used to deter potential offenders from dangerous behaviour rather than to impose punishment for moral wrongdoing.

Absolute liability offences
An absolute liability offence is a type of criminal offence that does not require any fault elements (mens rea) to be proved in order to establish guilt. The prosecution only needs to show that the accused performed the prohibited act (actus reus). As such, absolute liability offences do not allow for a defense of mistake of fact.

Due to the ease in which the offence can be proven, only select offences are of this type. In most legal systems, absolute liability offences must be clearly labeled as such in the criminal code or criminal legislation.

Public welfare offences
A public welfare offence is a crime for which "a reasonable person should know [that the proscribed activity] is subject to stringent public regulation and may seriously threaten the community's health or safety".

Robbie Elliott

Robert James Elliott (born 25 December 1973) is an English football coach and former professional player, who is the strength coach for the United States U20 men's football team.

As a player, he was a left-back and centre-half who notably played in the Premier League for Newcastle United and Bolton Wanderers, as well as in the Football League for Sunderland, Leeds United and Hartlepool United. With the Magpies during his first spell he was part of the side who won the First Division title in 1993, and who finished runners-up in two consecutive Premiership seasons.

Following retirement, Elliott returned for a third spell with Newcastle as a fitness coach but later moving to work for the United States Soccer Federation.

Newcastle United
Elliott began his career with his hometown club in 1989 as a youth trainee and offered a professional contract just two years later. He was one of a number of youngsters who had been blooded by the Magpies for first team action by Ossie Ardiles in 1991–92, others included Steve Watson, Steve Howey, Alan Thompson and Lee Clark. He had made his debut the previous season, in a 3–0 league defeat by Middlesbrough at Ayresome Park on 12 March 1991.

He found opportunities hard to come by in his early years at Newcastle, this mainly being due to the form of regular left-back and crowd favourite John Beresford, a signing from Portsmouth in 1992. However, he was still very much considered to be a key part of the first team squad and one to develop by the manager at the time Kevin Keegan. In the season of 1993–94, he was capped by the England U21 team along with fellow Geordie Lee Clark, whilst also making a total of 15 appearances in the Premier League, his first in the top flight.

1994–95 saw him score his first ever Newcastle goal as a substitute in the opening day fixture against top-flight new boys Leicester City at Filbert Street. He was also on the mark in the home against Leeds United towards the latter end of that season, a season which he temporarily became the club's first choice left-back in the final few months. It looked as if he would be out of the exit door at Newcastle in 1995–96 as he made just six league appearances. Blackburn Rovers showed strong interest in signing him but he remained with the Black and White stripes in order to fight for a first team place.

In contrast 1996–97 was probably his best ever season in a Newcastle jersey, he scored seven goals as the Magpies finished as the runners-up to eventual champions Manchester United, a club whom Elliott had previously trialled with as a schoolboy. The most memorable of his seven goals was the winner in a 1–0 win against Arsenal at Highbury.

Bolton Wanderers
Keegan's managerial departure from Newcastle also yielded the end of Elliott's first spell with his boyhood club. New manager Kenny Dalglish accepted a bid of around £2.5 million for Elliott from Division One champions Bolton Wanderers in July 1997, becoming their record signing at the time. Bolton had, at the time, moved to the new 25,000 all-seater Reebok Stadium arena and this looked to be a new start for Elliott as he faced the prospect of more regular first team football alongside his former Newcastle teammates Alan Thompson, Peter Beardsley and Scott Sellars, all of whom were also on Bolton's books at that time.

However disaster struck in the first ever match at the Reebok Stadium against Everton, just 30 minutes into the game Elliott landed awkwardly following a challenge by Toffees full back Tony Thomas and was stretchered off with a double fracture to his leg. Understandably Elliott was to miss the rest of that season and part of the next season, in a cruel twist of fate. Bolton had been relegated from the Premiership in his absence following an end of season drama at Chelsea.

In October 1998, Elliott's luck was to change for the better, he was named in midfield for Bolton's League Cup clash away to Norwich City for his first game since that fateful first night at the Reebok Stadium. He managed to get on the scoresheet at Carrow Road as Bolton advanced to the next round of the competition and later played in a handful of league matches thereafter to boost his fitness levels further.

The end of that season saw Bolton qualify for the divisions Play-offs, and they advanced to the final after a tricky semi-final against Ipswich Town over two legs. Elliott was to play at Wembley Stadium with Bolton in the final against Watford, but the club lost the game by two goals to nil. A year later Elliott reached three semi-finals with Bolton, who were now managed by Sam Allardyce. However, on each occasion these ended in defeat, with the Play Off match against Ipswich proving difficult for Elliott as he was sent off for throwing Ipswich forward David Johnson to the ground in what was a highly charged game against the Suffolk club.

Throughout his career at Bolton he was often touted for a possible return to the Premiership with other clubs because he was one of the club's highest paid and most experienced players. However, to his credit, he wanted to help Bolton back into the Premier League, and in his final season he did just that as the club won the 2001 Play Off Final against Preston North End at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff having finished behind the other two promoted teams Fulham and Blackburn Rovers.

Return to Newcastle United
Just two days after that play-off success his contract expired with Bolton and he completed a dream return to Newcastle on a Bosman transfer.

Initially, Elliott was used as a backup player in Newcastle's squad for the 2001–02 season, however he then went on to have limited chances in the 2002–03 season and then failed to make any first team appearances at all during the 2003–04 season. However, by the 2004–05 season, injuries to the squad merited Elliott a recall to the first team football, he went on the make 17 appearances that season and scored one goal against Manchester City. For season 2005/06 he remained in Newcastle's first team squad albeit not as a first choice. With injuries occurring, he played numerous games in central defence and at left back but the younger academy graduate Peter Ramage was often preferred over Elliott's experience as the season progressed. He was released in the following summer.

Sunderland
Following his release, Elliott trained with Newcastle's rivals Sunderland following an unsuccessful trial with Leeds United. With Sunderland short on left backs, Elliott signed a one-month contract prior to the start of the 06/07 Football League Championship season, and made his debut in the 3–1 defeat to Southend United at Roots Hall on 19 August 2006. In a match against Stoke City in 2006 he broke the leg of Rory Delap who at the time was on loan at Stoke from Sunderland.

Leeds United
After an unsuccessful spell at the Stadium of Light, Elliott was transferred to Leeds United, who originally rejected his services six months previously. Elliott confirmed after his Leeds debut in the 2–1 victory over Coventry City on 1 January 2007 that his transfer was permanent, not a loan and his contract with the club was to expire at the end of the season, in May 2007. Elliot was released from Leeds at the end of the 2006–07 season having only made 7 appearances for the club.

Hartlepool United
After leaving Leeds, Elliott joined Hartlepool United in July 2007. Elliott was sent off against Doncaster Rovers on 18 August 2007 on his home debut for two yellow cards by referee Mike Dean.

Coaching career
In July 2008, Elliott went back to Newcastle for his third spell at the club and become the new assistant Fitness and Conditioning coach for the club to work under senior fitness coach Mark Hulse.

In June 2009, Elliott left Newcastle United due to the turmoil regarding the take over of the club.

Since 2009, Elliott has worked with the US Soccer Federation in the position of Youth National Team Performance Expert (Male and Female).

Personal life
Elliott was a student at Gosforth High School and is a graduate of Northumbria University.

He regularly takes his two young sons to watch Newcastle United matches from the club's executive box.

Robbie with his friend Phil Gray are currently raising funds for the Sir Bobby Robson Foundation. In 2012 Elliott, along with Joey Barton, a former Newcastle United midfielder, sponsored a shirt each from Newcastle United's women's team. Elliot sponsored the number three shirt, the number he wore in the men's side.

Talk:Schwinger's quantum action principle

I don't understand
From looking at good books (like Joachain, 1975) on scattering theory on Schwinger variatonal principle, I really don't understand what is the relation of this article with what is known in the literature under this name. Is the Schwinger variational principles really so simple? Since I don't know what is SAB, I cannot judge. But as far as I know I am thinking at a crackpot!

 * I agree with the user above, the value of SAB should be indicated although if its an action perhaps is of the form:

$$ S_{AB}= \alpha (\dot X )^{2}-V(X) $$

where X is the position operator and V is the potential..
 * Also, a definition of S needs to be given. Xxanthippe (talk) 22:59, 10 July 2011 (UTC).

Saint Paul's College (Virginia)

Saint Paul's College was a private historically black college in Lawrenceville, Virginia. Saint Paul's College opened its doors on September 24, 1888, originally training students as teachers and for agricultural and industrial jobs.

By the late 20th century, Saint Paul's College offered undergraduate degrees for traditional college students and distant learning students in the Continuing Studies Program. The college also offered adult education to help assist working adults to gain undergraduate degrees. Saint Paul's College had a Single Parent Support System Program that assisted single teen parents pursuing a college education.

The college had long struggled with significant financial difficulties, culminating in a court conflict in 2012 with its regional accreditor, the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools. Throughout the 2012–2013 school year, the college sought to merge with another institution, but on June 3, 2013, the board announced the college would close on June 30, 2013.

Campus
Saint Paul's eleven-building campus was situated on 185 acre of green hills. Older buildings were constructed by students and donated by friends of the College. The college has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

History
On September 24, 1888, James Solomon Russell of the Protestant Episcopal Church founded the Saint Paul Normal and Industrial School, with fewer than a dozen students. The school was intended chiefly to develop African-American teachers, a critical and prestigious job in the late 19th and early 20th-century South. In 1914 the school boasted that "The location of the school in the heart of the Black Belt of Virginia, with a Negro population of 100,000 almost at its very doors, is most favorable for the prosecution of uplift work."

In 1941 the name of the institution was changed to Saint Paul's Polytechnic Institute when the state granted the school authority to offer a four-year program. The first bachelor's degree was awarded in 1944. In 1957 the college adopted its present name to reflect its liberal arts and teacher education curricula.

In June 2012, the college's regional accreditor, the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges, stripped the college of its accreditation. Although the college had been on probation, it lost its accreditation for "violations concerning financial resources, institutional effectiveness in support services, institutional effectiveness in academics and student services, lack of terminal degrees for too many faculty members, and a lack of financial stability." The college sued the accreditor, and two months later a court issued a preliminary injunction reinstating the college's probationary accreditation to protect it during further legal proceedings. Although supporters worked on plans to have St. Augustine's University in Raleigh, North Carolina, another historically black university of Episcopal heritage, acquire St Paul's, the deal was abandoned in May 2013. Shortly thereafter, St. Paul's College reported to SACS that it would close on June 30, 2013.

In 2017 the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation, which had assumed ownership of most of the former campus, sold the property to a Chinese-related firm that has not announced its plans.

Academics
The college focused on liberal arts, social sciences, education, business, mathematics, and natural sciences. It was committed to the development of "students who will be equipped to live effectively in a global society."

Student support
Saint Paul's College developed the Single Parent Support System (SPSS), the only program of its kind in the United States. Initiated in 1987, the SPSS was an on-campus residential educational program designed for single parents with two or fewer children between the ages of two months to nine years old.

The program required students to attend the college year round on a full-time basis and maintain a projected graduation progression of three to four years, with a 2.5 G.P.A. each year. A significant aspect of the SPSS was a faculty mentoring system that assisted participants with choosing a major. Tutorial assistance and counseling services were available, and the college provided seminars that focused on academic success, transition to college, career planning, and parenting. The college also provided child care assistance.

Athletics
Saint Paul's athletic teams were known as the Tigers and Lady Tigers. The college was a member of the Division II level of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA), primarily competing in the Central Intercollegiate Athletic Association (CIAA) from 1923–24 to 2010–11.

Saint Paul's competed in 14 intercollegiate varsity sports: Men's sports included baseball, basketball, cross country, football, golf, tennis and track & field; while women's sports included basketball, bowling, cross country, softball, tennis, track & field and volleyball.

The college discontinued its athletic programs in July 2011 in an effort to alleviate financial difficulties. The football team had costs of $300,000 to $400,000 annually.

Plenary session

A plenary session or plenum is a session of a conference or deliberative assembly in which all parties or members are present. Such a session may include a broad range of content, from keynotes to panel discussions, and is not necessarily related to a specific style of presentation or deliberation.

The term comes from the Latin word 'plenus' meaning 'gathered', and has come to be used in academic settings, such as conferences, just before, or after, breaking into smaller groups. This can be a time for summarising information, and may encourage class participation or networking.

A plenary 'sitting' may refer to legislative gatherings, such as those held by the European Parliament. In these sessions, if it is not fully attended by members, it must at least achieve a quorum. Likewise, in the General Assembly of the United Nations, a Plenary Meeting requires minimum number of members to continue its procedures; and the same may apply to other groups depending on their charter or bylaws.

Some organisations have standing committees that conduct the organisation's business between congresses, conferences, or other meetings. Such committees may themselves have quorum requirements and plenary sessions. So, Standing Committees of the Northern Ireland Assembly must have a quorum of five members in order for the committee to proceed.
