48614432 | No to police state | [EN] No to police state
The campaign "No to police state" () is a Ukrainian civil campaign against police brutality in response to the death of 20-year-old student Igor Indylo in the police precinct of Shevchenko District, Kyiv. The campaign has demanded a proper investigation into Indylo's death and the prosecution of the those guilty in his death and other high-profile cases.
Background.
Igor Indylo died in the police precinct of Shevchenkivskyi District, Kyiv on May 18, 2010. Ihor's family, as well as civil activists and journalists believed his death to be a homicide committed by constables Sergiy Pryhodko and Sergiy Kovalenko. His death captured public attention and started a civil campaign. In the spring of 2011, Judge Mykola Yashchenko of the Kyiv Court of Appeals ordered further investigation into the incident, ruling the prosecution had not properly established a cause of death.
Versions.
Police.
Police made no statements in the first days after Indylo's death, but media attention forced police to make a statement on May 26. The Shevchenkivskyi chief of police Petro Miroshnychenko announced: "We know that Indylo fell three times. First, he was seen laying on the floor in the dormitory. Second, he fell in the presence of his friend. Third, he has fallen from the bench in the police precinct from a height of approximately half a meter."
Ukraine Parliamentary Commissioner for Human Rights.
On June 2, Ukraine Parliamentary Commissioner for Human Rights Nina Karpachova stated that Indylo's death was a murder and police will try to "hush up" the case.
Society and media.
Activists of the "No to police state" campaign pointed out controversial facts of Indylo's death and accused policemen of the police of murder.
On June 18 during a press conference in Kyiv, journalists announced the results of their own investigation. Journalist Dmytro Gnap announced that Indylo was most likely pushed hard, he hit the wall and became unconscious because the right half of his brain was injured. A brain hemorrhage started and lasted for nearly 7 hours. Then Indylo was dragged to the room for administrative detainees and left to die. Gnap also announced that Indylo was not tortured and other journalists, who took part in investigation, agreed with him.
MP Yurii Karmazin announced that he did not believe Indylo's injuries to be accidental. According to his experience in law enforcement, such injuries cannot be caused by the fall to the floor. Journalist Olena Bilozerska and human rights activist Tetyana Yablonska also believed that Indylo was tortured.
Goals.
According to activists, their goal is to punish all involved in high-profile cases of police brutality. Among these cases are:
By June 2010, the demands of activists became more global. They started demanding police reform and amendments to laws. Activists demanded: | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=48614432 |

36793832 | The Evolution of Man | [EN] The Evolution of Man
The Evolution of Man is the fourth studio album by English musician Example, released on 19 November 2012 through Ministry of Sound.
Background and development.
Example tweeted that on the plane to Sydney, he planned on writing some songs for a new album and he would be listening to Kasabian's album Velociraptor! for lyrical inspiration. Whilst in Australia for 2 months, the singer planned to write the entire album in the time he spent there.
On 25 July 2012 Example announced via Twitter that the name of the lead single from his fourth album was "Say Nothing" – produced by Dirty South, also revealing it would premiere Monday 30 July 2012 on Capital FM. The track, alongside "Perfect Replacement" (produced by Feed Me), received its live debut on 18–19 August 2012 at the V Festival.
After fans' complaints about the lack of dubstep influence in "Say Nothing", Example responded to a comment on Facebook, saying "wait for the album, I'm not gonna fill the album with the same sounding song, and I'm not gonna keep releasing the same 'dubstep' or 'electro' record".
The promotional video for "Come Taste the Rainbow" premiered on 19 October 2012 on Hunger TV. This was also uploaded later to Example's official YouTube channel.
"Close Enemies", produced by Alex Smith, was released as the second single from the album on 11 November 2012, entering the UK Singles Chart at No. 37.
On 15 November, Greg James at BBC Radio 1 had the exclusive first play of "Perfect Replacement", with Example claiming that he "wanted it to be a single" but that there were "five or six" tracks that could be chosen as the third single. On 24 November, Example confirmed "Perfect Replacement" as the third single. Previous tweets had hinted towards "Queen of Your Dreams" becoming a future single. During a live hangout on Google+, he revealed that he struggles to reach the high notes and so he doesn't perform "Queen of Your Dreams" live.
From 11 February to 1 March 2013, Example and his live band completed their second UK arena tour. He performed six tracks from "The Evolution of Man" along with songs from his previous two albums "Playing in the Shadows" and "Won't Go Quietly". The band consists of Gleave, Sheldrake, Johnny "Drummachine" and Kaikai (who replaced David Stewart as guitarist). He was supported by Benga on all dates and Micky Slim, Sway, Baller B and P Money on selected dates.
Reception.
The album received mostly mixed to positive reviews from music critics.

16725365 | Carl Toms | [EN] Carl Toms
Carl Toms OBE (29 May 1927 – 4 August 1999) was a British set and costume designer who was known for his work in theatre, opera, ballet, and film.
Education.
Carl Toms was born in 1927 at Kirkby-in-Ashfield, Nottinghamshire, England. His parents were both tailors and neither of them entirely approved of Toms' choice to work in the theatre, preferring that he become an architect. Even after he had made his name in the theatre, his mother would still ask when he intended to get "proper" employment. As a teenager, Toms first studied at the Mansfield College of Art in Mansfield where he met and befriended Alan Tagg, who would also become a notable stage designer. They were both greatly influenced by a young teacher from Yorkshire, Hazel Hemsworth.
Toms left Mansfield in the early 1940s to serve in the Royal Army Ordnance Corps during World War II. After the war, he went to the Royal College of Art where he studied with Cecil Beaton among others. Toms left the Royal College of Art to train under Margaret Harris, George Devine and Michel Saint-Denis at the Old Vic School in the late 1940s. It was Harris, however, who influenced the next major course of his life by introducing Toms to Oliver Messel with whom he would eventually apprentice with from 1952 to 1957.
Toms' first job under Messel was to make models for a penthouse suite at the Dorchester Hotel. At the same time Messel was working on a new ballet for the Royal Opera House commissioned to mark the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II, and three successive operas at Glyndebourne Festival, all of which Toms assisted on. Messel had a strong interest and passion for French culture which highly influenced his work. As a result, Toms' work became highly influenced by French designers, painters, and musicians as well. Many of the masks and models Toms made during this period are now on display at the Theatre Museum in Covent Garden which display this influence.
Career.
After leaving Messel in 1958, Toms worked on the opera "Susanna's Secret" for the Glyndebourne Festival and for various West End theatre productions. In 1960 he designed the world premiere of Benjamin Britten's opera "A Midsummer Night's Dream" at the Aldeburgh Festival. He then worked with many English non-profit companies, including the Old Vic and the National Theatre, where he designed sets and costumes for Shakespeare's "Love's Labour's Lost", Marlowe's "Edward II", Neil Simon's "Brighton Beach Memoirs", and "The Provok'd Wife" for which Toms won the Laurence Olivier Award for Best Set Design. He also worked with the Royal Shakespeare Company, where he designed the 1989 production of the Kaufman-Hart comedy "The Man Who Came to Dinner" and John Osborne's "A Patriot for Me". Toms also worked frequently with the English Stage Company.
In 1969, Toms was appointed consultant for the Investiture of the Prince of Wales, for which he received the Order of the British Empire. There followed commissions to redecorate several West End theatres including the Theatre Royal, Windsor, and, most notably, the Theatre Royal, Bath, which he restored to its former glory in 1982. In 1990 he took on the task of restoring the Richmond Theatre in Richmond, London, which had been designed by Frank Matcham.
In 1970, Toms began to work in the American theatre and won a Tony Award and the Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Set Design in 1975 for his production design of "Sherlock Holmes". During this time, Toms met and befriended Tom Stoppard with whom he would work frequently on plays in both New York and London productions. Toms worked with Stoppard on such plays as "Travesties", "Night and Day", "The Real Thing", "Jumpers", and "Hapgood" among others. Toms' more recent design works included productions of two Edward Albee plays, "Three Tall Women" (1994) and "A Delicate Balance" (1997), and the Peter Hall production of "An Ideal Husband" (1996).
Toms also worked on nine films during his career, including the cult classic "One Million Years BC", starring Raquel Welch in a fur bikini of Toms' devising; and other cave epics, including "Prehistoric Women" (1967) and "When Dinosaurs Ruled the Earth" (1970). He also was the production designer for a 1968 film of "The Winter's Tale".
Death.
Toms died of emphysema on 4 August 1999 in Hertfordshire, England, aged 72. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=16725365 |

3114510 | バディ・ジョーンズ (ウェスタン・スウィング・ミュージシャン) | [JA] バディ・ジョーンズ (ウェスタン・スウィング・ミュージシャン)
バディ・ジョーンズ（Buddy Jones、出生名：オスカー・ベーゲン・ライリー、Oscar Bergen Riley、1902年12月25日 - 1956年10月20日）は、1930年代から1940年代にかけてレコードを吹き込んだ、アメリカ合衆国のウェスタン・スウィングのミュージシャン。
経歴.
ジョーンズは、ノースカロライナ州アシュビルに生まれ、幼い頃に父親が亡くなった後、テキサス州ポートアーサーに移った。やがて、きょうだいのバスター (Buster) とともに旅巡業の一座に加わったが、1930年代はじめにはルイジアナ州シュリーブポートに定着した。当地でラジオ局に出演するようになり、歌手のジミー・デイヴィス () と出会った。1931年、ジョーンズはデイヴィスとの最初の録音に臨み、以降、デイヴィスのバックバンドの一員として演奏し続けた。1937年には、自身の名義による最初の吹き込みをデッカ・レコードで果たし、以降の6年間に、ブルースや（卑猥な内容の）リスク・ホンキートンク (risqué honky tonk) の歌を、「I'm Going to Get Me A Honky Tonky Baby」や「She's Sellin' What She Used to Give Away」など80曲以上録音した。ジョーンズの録音には、ジミー・デイヴィスとの二重唱や、きょうだいであるバスター・ジョーンズのスティール・ギター伴奏によるもの、ピアニストのムーン・マリカン () や、フィドル奏者のクリフ・ブルーナー ()、スティール・ギター奏者のボブ・ダン () らのバンドと演奏したものなどが含まれている。
1939年に録音された「Rockin' Rollin' Mama」は、「Waves on the ocean, waves in the sea / But that gal of mine rolls just right for me / Rockin' rollin' mama, I love the way you rock and roll」という歌詞を含んでいることで知られている。これは、「ロックンロール (rock and roll)」という言葉が一般的に使用されるようになるより15年も前のことであり、また、白人の歌手によってこの曲が歌われたという点でも、驚くべきことであった。
ジョーンズは、1930年代半ばにシュリーブポート市警察交通隊 (the Shreveport Police Department Traffic Squad) に加わり、1940年代はじめには結婚し、以降は録音を残さなかった。ジョーンズはシュリーブポートで亡くなったが、これは運転中に心筋梗塞となり、運転していた自動車の衝突事故を起こしたためであった。 | https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=3114510 |

During four years at the Mannes School, Mamlok studied under the direction of George Szell. She received a bachelor's and master's degree at the Manhattan School of Music in the 1950s, studying with Vittorio Giannini. Other teachers include Roger Sessions and Ralph Shapey in composition and Eduard Steuermann, one of the foremost piano pedagogues at the time, in performance.
Though Hindemith was one of her earliest influences, Mamlok credited the works of serial composers, including Schoenberg, Berg and Webern, as having the greatest impact on her compositional style. She also said: "My music is colorful, with the background of tonality – tonal centers … I can't shake it completely."
Compositions.
Mamlok composed extensively for small chamber ensembles of various configurations as well as works for piano. However, her output included a few pieces for orchestra, including a concerto for oboe. Other works included several songs, as well as works for voice and chamber ensemble. Mamlok's husband, Dwight Mamlok, wrote the text for her 1987 song cycle "Der Andreasgarten".
Of her own compositional style and pieces she said:
Career and awards.
Also an influential teacher, Mamlok held many university positions including placements at: New York University (1967–76), City University of New York, Temple University, Kingsborough Community College (1972–75) and the Manhattan School of Music, where she taught for four decades. She served on the board of the League of Composers/International Society for Contemporary Music.
Mamlok had received two National Endowment for the Arts Grants (1974 and 1981), a Fromm Foundation Grant (1994), a Fellowship from the Guggenheim Foundation (1995) and commissions from various organizations, including the Koussevitzky Foundation, the Eastman School of Music, the Alaria Chamber Ensemble and the San Francisco Symphony Orchestra. In 1984, "When Summer Sang", a chamber work for flute, clarinet, violin, cello and piano, was chosen to represent the United States at the International Rostrum of Composers. Mamlok also received a Commendation of Excellence in 1987 "for her contribution to the world of concert music."
The C. F. Peters Corporation, American Composers Edition, McGuinness and Marx, Casia Publishing, and Hildegard Publishing companies have published Mamlok's compositions. She made the scores of many of her works available herself. In 2006, Mamlock moved to Berlin, where she died on May 4, 2016. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=11048490 |

1714076 | Kindertagesförderungsgesetz (Berlin) | [DE] Kindertagesförderungsgesetz (Berlin)
Das Kindertagesförderungsgesetz (KitaFöG) des Landes Berlin ist am 1. August 2005 in Kraft getreten und regelt die Kindertagesbetreuung in Berlin. Der vollständige Name lautet "Gesetz zur Förderung von Kindern in Tageseinrichtungen und Kindertagespflege".
Die Rahmenbedingungen der Kindertagesbetreuung werden im SGB VIII (Kinder- und Jugendhilfe) geregelt. Das SGB VIII ist Bundesrecht und gilt für alle Kindertageseinrichtungen und Kindertagespflegestellen in Deutschland. Der Dritte Abschnitt des SGB VIII (§§ 22 bis 26) befasst sich hiermit ausführlich. Gem. § 26 SGB VIII soll das Nähere über Inhalt und Umfang der Kindertagesbetreuung durch das Landesrecht geregelt werden. Dementsprechend gibt es für jedes Bundesland ein eigenes Gesetz zum Kindertagesbetreuungsrecht. In Berlin heißt dieses Gesetz: Kindertagesförderungsgesetz – KitaFöG – vom 23. Juni 2005 (GVBl. S. 322).
Über das Bundesrecht hinaus haben in Berlin alle Kinder ab dem vollendeten ersten Lebensjahr einen Anspruch auf Teilzeitförderung.
Das KitaFöG gilt für Tageseinrichtungen, also Kindertagesstätten, Eltern-Initiativ-Kindertagesstätten und Eltern-Kind-Gruppen, und Kindertagespflegestellen in Berlin.
In dem Gesetz werden im Einzelnen die Aufgaben und Ziele der Förderung (§§ 1 – 3 KitaFöG), der Anspruch auf einen Platz in der Tageseinrichtung (§ 4 KitaFöG) sowie das Anmeldeverfahren und die Bedarfsprüfung für einen Platz (§ 7 KitaFöG), der Betreuungsvertrag (§ 16 KitaFöG), die Ausstattung der Tageseinrichtungen und die Qualitätsentwicklung (§§ 10 bis 13 KitaFöG), die Elternbeteiligung (§ 14 KitaFöG), die Kindertagespflege (§§ 17, 18 KitaFöG) sowie die Finanzierung der Tageseinrichtungen (§§ 21 – 26 KitaFöG) geregelt.
In welchem Umfang sich das Kind und die Eltern an den Kosten der Inanspruchnahme der Förderung in einer Tageseinrichtung zu beteiligen haben, ist in einem gesonderten Gesetz geregelt. Das Gesetz heißt: Tagesbetreuungskostenbeteiligungsgesetz – TKBG. Die Höhe der Kostenbeteiligung ist abhängig vom Einkommen der Eltern des geförderten Kindes.
Ab 1. Januar 2007 sieht das TKBG eine im letzten Jahr vor Beginn der regelmäßigen Schulpflicht kostenfreie Betreuung vor (§ 3 Abs. 5 TKBG).
Zur Ausgestaltung des KitaFöG wurde inzwischen eine Verordnung erlassen (VOKitaFöG). In der VOKitaFöG wird das Anmeldeverfahren für einen Platz in einer Tageseinrichtung sowie die Feststellung des Bedarfs genau beschrieben. Wird ein Bedarf an Förderung in einer Tageseinrichtung festgestellt, erteilt das zuständige Jugendamt einen sog. Gutschein an die Eltern (§ 5 VOKitaFöG).
Die VOKitaFöG enthält neben den Fragen der Bedarfsfeststellung noch Vorschriften zur Personalausstattung der Tageseinrichtung.
Mit dem neuen KitaFöG zum 1. August 2005 wurde die bisherige Hortbetreuung von Kindern im Grundschulalter an die Schulen überführt. Voraussetzung für die Hortbetreuung an den Grundschulen ist auch hier die Feststellung eines Betreuungsbedarfs, (vgl. § 19 Abs. 6 Schulgesetz für das Land Berlin (SchulG), das auf das KitaFöG verweist). Wird die Hortbetreuung nicht als schulisches Angebot der Schule selbst durchgeführt, kann eine Bereitstellung von Betreuungsplätzen durch Träger der freien Jugendhilfe erfolgen. | https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=1714076 |
2573205 | Enéas Carneiro | [DE] Enéas Carneiro
Enéas Ferreira Carneiro [] (* 5. November 1938 in Rio Branco (Acre); † 6. Mai 2007 in Rio de Janeiro) war ein brasilianischer Politiker.
1989 gründete er die Partei Partido da Reedificação da Ordem Nacional (PRONA) (Partei zur Wiederherstellung der nationalen Ordnung). Im gleichen Jahr, zur ersten freien Präsidentschaftswahl seit dem Ende der Militärdiktatur, wurde er in Brasilien einem breiteren Publikum dadurch bekannt, dass er die TV-Wahlwerbespots von 1 Minute mit möglichst viel Information füllen wollte, so dass er gezwungen war, hastig und schnell zu reden, dabei heftig gestikulierte und am Ende immer seinen prägenden Satz sagte: "Meu nome é Enéas!" ("Mein Name ist Enéas!"). Bei drei Präsidentschaftswahlen trat Enéas Carneiro als Kandidat an. Im Jahr 2002 wurde er zum Deputado Federal (Abgeordneter des Brasilianischen Bundestages) für den Staat São Paulo gewählt. Er wurde mit 1,57 Millionen Stimmen in das Amt gewählt und stellte damit einen noch nie dagewesenen Rekord auf.
Biografie.
Enéas verlor im Alter von acht Jahren seine Eltern. Dies zwang ihn schon früh dazu, arbeiten zu gehen, um für den Unterhalt seiner jüngeren Geschwister zu sorgen. 1958 verließ er Acre, um ein Studium in Rio de Janeiro zu beginnen. Ein Jahr später machte er bereits seinen ersten Abschluss, 1965 wurde er zum Doktor der Medizin promoviert und spezialisierte sich in Kardiologie. Sein erstes Lehrbuch über Elektrokardiologie wurde zu einem großen Erfolg unter den Medizinstudenten, die dem Werk den Beinamen "Die Bibel von Enéas" gaben. | https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=2573205 |
17611602 | Barmbek station | [EN] Barmbek station
Barmbek is a railway station and transport hub in Hamburg, Germany, for the underground railway (U-Bahn) system and the suburban railway (S-Bahn) system. The station is located in the district of Barmbek-Nord, Germany. Barmbek-Nord is part of the borough of Hamburg-Nord.
The suburban railway part of the station at the north side is listed as "Barmbek (S-Bahn)", No. 0376 and category 4 by the Deutsche Bahn. The DS 100 code is ABAG.
History.
In November 1866, a Barmbek line was built for horsecars by the "Hamburger Pferde-Eisenbahn-Gesellschaft" (Hamburg horsecar railway company). On 11 April 1895, the first new built electric tram line was opened from "Barmbeker Zoll" (Barmbek customs facilities) to Ohlsdorf Cemetery, and on 6 December 1906, the "Hamburg-Altonaer Stadt- und Vortbahn" (City and suburban railway) — since 1934 abbreviated Hamburg S-Bahn — opened the double track line Ohlsdorf – Blankenese, including Barmbek station. Planned as an electric railway with overhead lines, the trains were first steam powered, because of difficulties concerning the construction of the electrical installations and a delay delivering the engines. In 1912, the Hamburger Hochbahn opened first part of the Hamburg U-Bahn "circle line" from Barmbek station via Mundsburg to central station. Until 1947, Barmbek station was written "Barmbeck". In end 1980s, constructing the bus station at the north side of Barmbek station gave the whole station the new westside entrance.
Layout.
Barmbek is an elevated railway station and a bus station for several bus routes north of it. There are three platforms with six tracks at the same level. The two U-Bahn platforms are served by trains of the branches of line U3 side by side at the same time to ease the change between it.
In the westside entrance level are some shops, escalators and lifts to the platforms and to the bus station. There is an at-grade entrance at the eastside with an exit to the south only as well. The station is fully accessible for handicapped persons.
Services.
The Hamburg U-Bahn line U3 and line S1 of the Hamburg S-Bahn serve Barmbek station. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=17611602 |

Bibi Shahrbanu Shrine () is a shrine located near Shahr-e Ray, a southern suburb of Tehran, Iran.
The oldest parts of the shrine date from the 15th century, shortly before the Safavid period. Researchers have discussed, if the name of the shrine and the location could point to an earlier pre-Islamic holy site, possible a sanctuary of the goddess Anahita. However, because it is being utilized solely for Islamic purposes it is considered an Islamic building. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=31014213 |

二上橋（ふたがみばし）は、富山県高岡市の一級河川小矢部川に架かる富山県道255号守山向野線の橋梁。
概要.
かつて北陸街道の二上の渡しがあった。北陸街道のルート変更後も高岡と伏木・氷見を結ぶ重要な地となった。当時の加賀藩は軍事上架橋を禁じたが、1871年9月になって高岡の町の人によって木町 - 渡村間にて架橋された。しかしこの架橋と渡し賃をめぐって様々な対立が生じたため、1897年（明治30年）3月に県営で長さ60間、幅員3間の新橋が架橋された。さらに1937年の小矢部川改修に伴い橋長152m、幅員5.5mの橋に付け替えられた。
現在の橋は、1960年6月14日に架橋されたものである。 | https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=4653443 |

3059514 | Law of truly large numbers | [EN] Law of truly large numbers
The law of truly large numbers (a statistical adage), attributed to Persi Diaconis and Frederick Mosteller, states that with a large enough number of independent samples, any highly implausible (i.e. unlikely in any single sample, but with constant probability strictly greater than 0 in any sample) result is likely to be observed. Because we never find it notable when likely events occur, we highlight unlikely events and notice them more. The law is often used to falsify different pseudo-scientific claims; as such, it is sometimes criticized by fringe scientists.
The law can be rephrased as "large numbers also deceive". More concretely, skeptic Penn Jillette has said, "Million-to-one odds happen eight times a day in New York" (population about 8,000,000).
Examples.
For a simplified example of the law, assume that a given event happens with a probability for its occurrence of 0.1%, within a single trial. Then, the probability that this so-called unlikely event does "not" happen (improbability) in a single trial is 99.9% (0.999).
For a sample of only 1,000 independent trials, however, the probability that the event "does not" happen in any of them, even once (improbability), is only 0.9991000 ≈0.3677, or 36.77%. Then, the probability that the event does happen, at least once, in 1,000 trials is 0.9991000 ≈0.6323, 63.23%. This means that this "unlikely event" has a probability of 63.23% of happening if 1,000 independent trials are conducted. If the number of trials were increased to 10,000, the probability of it happening at least once in 10,000 trials rises to 0.99910000 ≈0.99995, 99.995%. In other words, a highly unlikely event, given enough independent trials with some fixed number of draws per trial, is even more likely to occur.
For an event X that occurs with very low probability of 0.0000001% (in any single sample, see also almost never), considering 1,000,000,000 as a "truly large" number of independent samples gives the probability of occurrence of X equal to and a number of independent samples equal to the size of the human population (in 2021) gives probability of event X:
These calculations can be formalized in mathematical language as: "the probability of an unlikely event X happening in N independent trials can become arbitrarily near to 1, no matter how small the probability of the event X in one single trial is, provided that N is truly large."
For example, where the probability of unlikely event X is not a small constant but decreased in function of N, see graph.
In high availability systems even very unlikely events have to be taken into consideration, in series systems even when the probability of failure for single element is very low after connecting them in large numbers probability of whole system failure raises (to make system failures less probable redundancy can be used - in such parallel systems even highly unreliable redundant parts connected in large numbers raise the probability of not breaking to required high level).
In criticism of pseudoscience.
The law comes up in criticism of pseudoscience and is sometimes called the Jeane Dixon effect (see also Postdiction). It holds that the more predictions a psychic makes, the better the odds that one of them will "hit". Thus, if one comes true, the psychic expects us to forget the vast majority that did not happen (confirmation bias). Humans can be susceptible to this fallacy.
Another similar manifestation of the law can be found in gambling, where gamblers tend to remember their wins and forget their losses, even if the latter far outnumbers the former (though depending on a particular person, the opposite may also be true when they think they need more analysis of their losses to achieve fine tuning of their playing system). Mikal Aasved links it with "selective memory bias", allowing gamblers to mentally distance themselves from the consequences of their gambling by holding an inflated view of their real winnings (or losses in the opposite case – "selective memory bias in either direction"). | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=3059514 |
53159740 | Maselekwane Modjadji | [EN] Maselekwane Modjadji
Maselekwane Modjadji I (died 1854) was the first Rain Queen of the South African Balobedu nation. Maselekwane reigned from 1800 to 1854. She was succeeded by Rain Queen Masalanabo Modjadji II.
The woman who became the first Modjadji was known as Maselekwane Modjadji I. She lived in complete seclusion, deep in the forest where she practiced secretive rituals to make rain. Maselekwane committed ritual suicide by ingesting poison in 1854. She was seen as an intercessor or intermediary between her people, the royal ancestors and the rain goddess.
Origin.
Maselekwane was a direct descendant of the royal house of Monomatopa which reigned over the Karanga people of the current day Zimbabwe in the 1400-1500s. The kingdom of Monomatopa was prosperous and their people oversaw the construction of the Zimbabwe Ruins. In the latter part of the 1500s, the royal family experienced a crisis when the king's son and daughter had an incestuous affair and conceived an illegitimate child. The king was forced to banish his daughter from the kingdom, and she fled south to what is now Limpopo, South Africa.
Over the next two centuries, a kingdom was eventually established in the area we now know as Bolobedu. During the latter part of the 1700s, the then Chief Mukoto was warned by ancestral spirits in a dream or apparition that all his sons are plotting to assassinate and/or overthrow him and the solution to his imminent fate was to have all his sons killed and then marry and impregnate his daughter, Princess Dzungundini. By doing so they ensured him that the new heir to his throne will be a queen with power over rainfall and thus a dynasty of women, a queenship was founded.
After marrying her father, the queen, Dzungundini gave birth to a son whom was strangled as an infant by his father. The second child was a daughter whom they named Maselekwane. She was also called Modjadji "ruler of the day" and the title is used by all subsequent Rain Queens. She was born somewhere between 1729-1849.
History.
Queen Modjadji rules over a relatively small kingdom. However, she has been revered by people far beyond her tiny kingdom. According to legend, King Shaka left her tribe untouched, although he conquered most of the neighbouring tribes. Shaka revered her rainmaking skills and called her a "four breasted woman who was the rainmaker of rainmakers". He used to send black cattle to Modjadji I to pay tribute. King Moshoeshoe I of Lesotho, the Swati kings and many others in southern Africa paid tributes to her to bring them rain.
During her reign, she had at least two children. Masalanabo Modjadji II and Princess Leakhali.
In 1854, she committed ritual suicide. This was done to pass her spirit over to reside within the next Rain Queen and to increase her rainmaking power. This was also believed to immortalise her. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=53159740 |
38460886 | Bakhodir Kurbanov | [EN] Bakhodir Kurbanov
Bakhodir Kurbanov (; born 5 December 1972) is a retired Greco-Roman wrestler from Uzbekistan. He competed at the 1996 and 2000 Summer Olympics in the featherweight (-62 kg) and lightweight (-63 kg), respectively, and finished in 16th and fifth place. He won a bronze and a silver medal at the 1994 and 1998 Asian Games, respectively, and finished fourth in 2002.
Family.
Kurbanov is the youngest of five brothers, all wrestlers. In December 1997 he married Oksana Chusovitina, an Olympic gymnast from Uzbekistan whom he met at the 1994 Asian Games in Japan. The marriage was opposed by Chusovitina's Orthodox Christian parents because Kurbanov is a Muslim. Their son Alisher was born in November 1999, and in late 2002 he was diagnosed with acute lymphocytic leukemia. In search for qualified treatment the family moved to Cologne, Germany, and used fundraisers and donations from gymnastics fans to pay for medical bills. In 2006, Chusovitina received German citizenship.

William Sutton Moore (* 18. November 1822 bei Amity, Washington County, Pennsylvania; † 30. Dezember 1877 in Washington, Pennsylvania) war ein US-amerikanischer Politiker. Zwischen 1873 und 1875 vertrat er den Bundesstaat Pennsylvania im US-Repräsentantenhaus.
Werdegang.
William Moore besuchte die öffentlichen Schulen seiner Heimat. Im Jahr 1847 absolvierte er das Washington College. Nach einem anschließenden Jurastudium und seiner 1847 erfolgten Zulassung als Rechtsanwalt begann er in seinem Heimatort Washington in diesem Beruf zu arbeiten. Zwischen 1854 und 1857 übte er das Amt des "Prothonotary" im Washington County aus. Politisch schloss er sich der 1854 gegründeten Republikanischen Partei an. Im Juni 1856 nahm er als Delegierter an der ersten Republican National Convention in Philadelphia teil, auf der John C. Frémont als Präsidentschaftskandidat nominiert wurde. Im folgenden Jahr stieg Moore auch in das Zeitungsgeschäft ein und wurde Mitherausgeber der Zeitung "The Reporter". Von 1863 bis 1866 war er Kämmerer im Washington County.
Bei den Kongresswahlen des Jahres 1872 wurde Moore im 24. Wahlbezirk von Pennsylvania in das US-Repräsentantenhaus in Washington, D.C. gewählt, wo er am 4. März 1873 die Nachfolge des Demokraten William McClelland antrat. Da er im Jahr 1874 auf eine weitere Kandidatur verzichtete, konnte er bis zum 3. März 1875 nur eine Legislaturperiode im Kongress absolvieren. Nach seiner Zeit im US-Repräsentantenhaus ist William Moore politisch nicht mehr in Erscheinung getreten. Er starb am 30. Dezember 1877 in Washington, wo er auch beigesetzt wurde. | https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=7940408 |
