# Polaris (poker bot)

Polaris is a Texas hold 'em poker playing program developed by the computer poker research group at the University of Alberta, a project that has been under way for 16 years as of 2007. Polaris is a composite program consisting of a number of bots, including Hyperborean08, the winner of the limit equilibrium series in the 2008 Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence (AAAI) Computer Poker Competition. Polaris also contains a number of other fixed strategies, and chooses between these strategies during a match. Polaris requires little computational power at match time, so it is run on an Apple MacBook Pro laptop during competitions. Polaris plays only heads-up (two player) Limit Texas hold'em.

## Play against professionals

On July 23–24, 2007, Polaris played against poker professionals Phil Laak and Ali Eslami at the Hyatt Regency Hotel in Vancouver, B.C. The competition consisted of four duplicate matches, with 500 hands per match. In each duplicate match, the same cards were dealt to both pairs of players, human and bot, but with the seating reversed. This meant that if Polaris had poor hands in one half of the match against Laak, the other copy of Polaris would be getting good cards in the other half of the match against Eslami. This was done to reduce variance, or "luck factor", as neither team could say they got the worse set of cards. The two players were in separate rooms to eliminate the chance of the audience revealing information about the hands, which would be especially problematic in a duplicate match. Laak had previously played the Polaris predecessor Vexbot in 2005 in a prior tournament. Laak admitted to luck playing a part in his victory over Vexbot.
After roughly 64 hours, Polaris tied the first round, won the second and lost the last two. One of the lost matches was against a learning variant which tried to switch between a few styles of play, while all of the remainder were against large, static, randomized sets of rules which approximate a pair of Nash equilibrium strategies. Laak and Eslami split $1 for the two wins, and $2,500 for the draw.
On July 3–6, 2008, Polaris competed against six human professional poker players in the Second Man-Machine Poker Championship, held in Las Vegas at the 2008 Gaming Life Expo. Polaris defeated the human players with three wins, two losses and one tie. Each of the six sessions was a duplicate match of 500 hands against two different players, resulting in six thousand hands played. Across all six sessions, Polaris won 195 big blinds. The version of Polaris used in the 2008 match was much stronger than the 2007 version, both in the quality of the component strategies and in its ability to learn which component strategy to use.

# Career break

A career break is a period of time out from employment. It is commonly used for people to take time out of their career for personal or professional development.

## History

A career break is usually between one month and two years long. Six months to two years is the most common period of time for a career break. It is also possible to take a mini career break of less than one month, which enables people to try out career break activities without committing to longer periods of time. Shorter career breaks are most popular with people over 45 years of age.
It can take the form of a sabbatical, which can be paid or unpaid; unpaid sabbaticals are much more common. Sabbaticals were originally only offered to academics and clerics but are now being increasingly offered by companies.
A career break is not simply a period of unemployment. Career breakers usually do one or more of the following:
* Rest from burnout
* Travel
* Voluntary work
* Paid work abroad
* Studying or training
* Career development and business start up
* Offering palliative care
* Raising children
* Staying up-to-date with (profession related) news
* Recovering from accidents or illnesses

## Usage

The career break has grown in popularity over the last several years, with 75% of the British workforce currently considering a career break. Every year, around 90,000 professionals are estimated to take a career break. It is most common in the UK, where it grew out of the gap year concept. The career break is sometimes referred to as an 'adult gap year', which reflects the commitment towards developing skills and gaining experience while out of the workforce.
In the USA a career break is generally referred to as a 'sabbatical'.
# Roman Świątkiewicz

Roman Świątkiewicz, pen name Roman Świątek, or Romuald Świątek-Horyń (born May 20, 1928), is a Polish writer, war veteran and World War II amateur historian. He published two controversial books about his personal experiences, Przed czerwonym trybunałem in 1987 in London (re-issued in Poland in 1990) and The Katyn Forest in 1988 in London under the pseudonym of "Romuald Swiatek". In the books he blamed the Germans for the Katyn massacre. In his second book he also claimed that Gerhard Buhtz, the leader of the German Katyn Commission in 1943 was killed by the Germans in 1944.
Świątkiewicz spent seven years in Soviet labor camps in 1950–1956, where he met several hundred of German POWs, who told him that they had seen Polish POW camps in Nazi occupied territories. In the preface to his book The Katyn Forest he wrote:
   I hope that following will clarify my reasons for writing this book. When, in 1950, I found myself in Soviet labour camps, amongst German prisoners of war, Polish underground army members, some of Vlasov's men and Bandera's men, where the crime of Katyn was frequently and hotly discussed. I developed, quite when I know not, a deeper interest in the subject and, with the passage of time and influenced by material I had gathered, I began to see that the version of the Katyn crime given in 1943 by Polish exile groups in London had no real foundation.
   During my seven-year stay in the camps, I met many German officers who, in 1941, were occupying the territories of Smolensk and saw, with their own eyes camps with Polish officers. I also met in the camps several residents of Smolensk whose statements finally confirmed my conviction that some Polish exile groups in London, /Sanacja/ took advantage of the discovery by Germans of the mass graves of Polish officers to use it as a political weapon against General Sikorski, whose policy towards the Soviet Union, as, indeed, his very person, was to them, total anathema.
After meeting a Polish POW – an officer from Kraków named Władysław Zak – who told him that he was transferred from a NKVD camp near Smolensk to a jail in Moscow just two weeks before the German attack on Soviet Union, Świątkiewicz became completely convinced that the Germans had committed the massacre in Katyn.
Świątkiewicz also complained that when he came to London in 1968, with the intention to publish his first book, his attitude did not win the sympathy of the Polish exile circles. The publisher of the book demanded that he dropped the controversial chapter.
Despite Russian officials admitting in 1990 that the massacre was committed in the spring of 1940 by NKVD on Beria's order, Świątkiewicz continued to believe that the Polish officers were murdered by Germans. He also claimed that Russia in 1990 was forced by Polish government to confirm what he believed was the false version of the events.
# Norma Pratelli Parenti

Norma Pratelli Parenti (1 June 1921 – 23 June 1944) was an Italian partisan, honored with a gold medal for military valor (in memory).

## Biography

Norma was born in the Podere "Zuccantine di Sopra" area, located today in Monterotondo Marittimo but then the Municipality of Massa Marittima, daughter of Estewan and Roma Camerini. In her adult life, she joined the semi-clandestine organization called Azione Cattolica, joining the Circolo of "Santa Giovanna D'Arco" operating inside the hospice "S.Chiara".
Starting from 1941, she resided for a year in the spiritual retreat of Villa SantaRegina in Siena, and in March 1942 in the Compagnia delle figlie dimesse di S. Angela Merici with the intent to join them, but then she abandoned this. In fact, in the summer of 1942, having already moved to Massa Marittima, she became engaged to Mario Pratelli, from Agordo, who she married on 31 March 1943 and on 29 December of the same year, Alberto Mario Pratelli was born, the only son of Norma and Mario.
After the Armistice of Cassibile, she actively participated in the Italian Liberation War, in the ranks of the Grosseto's Resistance as a partisan in the "Amiata" Group of the 23rd Garibaldi Brigade, collecting money and aid for the partisans, hosting the fugitives, hosting former Allied prisoners, procuring arms and munitions and personally participating in various war actions.
In a trattoria in Massa Marittima, managed by her mother, Norma led to desertion many foreign war prisoners to join the partisan gangs. It was one of these prisoners, a Mongolian soldier, who betrayed Norma and permitted her arrest together with her mother on the evening of 22 June 1944.
After being fiercely tortured, Norma Pratelli Parenti was shot the same evening by the retreating German troops. Her torn body was found the next day. In her memory it was decreed that the Gold Medal of Military Valour would be dedicated to her memory.

## Dedications

A primary school of Populonia has been entitled with her name, while there are many streets named after her in Massa Marittima, Grosseto, Follonica, Piombino, Rome, and Fizzonasco. The song "Norma, per non dimenticare" has been recorded by the choir "Le Donne di Magliano" and is one of the tracks of the cd "Donne che cantano le Donne" (2017)

## Honors

Decorated with a Gold Medal of Military Valour. «Young bride and mother, between massacres and persecutions, while German and Fascist anger raged on the Maremma coast, she did not give rest to her body nor did she bend her will as a rescuer, animator, fighter and martyr. She gave the victims the forbidden burial, provided hospitality to the fugitives, freedom and salvation to the prisoners, munitions and food to the partisans and in the days of terror, when fear closed all doors and made the streets deserted, with an intrepid pity she gave courage to fearful people and increased confidence to the strongest ones. On the night of June 22nd, brought out of her home, tortured by the ferocious bestiality of her executioners, she died, a sublime offering to the Fatherland, a generous soul.» – Massa Marittima, June 1944.

## Production

Tim Wheeler revealed that the song was written while he was on a break in the South of France. He said:
   I was on holiday and I ran into a friend who works for U2 doing their public relations. It was totally by coincidence and she invited us to come and hang out with Bono in his holiday home there. He and The Edge have two mansions on the beach side by side and I didn't have a hotel booked for the last few nights. And Bono said: "Sure why don't you just stay here" We had one beautiful house to ourselves and there was an old piano there. And I sat down one day and wrote the melody for Polaris.

# Lord Dingwall

Lord Dingwall is a title in the Peerage of Scotland. It was created in 1584 for Andrew Keith, and in 1609 for Sir Richard Preston, with remainder to his heirs whatsoever. In 1619 he was further honoured when he was made Baron Dunmore and Earl of Desmond in the Peerage of Ireland, with remainder to heirs male. On his death in 1628 the Irish titles became extinct while he was succeeded in the Scottish lordship by his daughter Elizabeth, the second Lady Dingwall. She was the wife of James Butler, 1st Duke of Ormonde. Their eldest son Thomas Butler, Earl of Ossory, was summoned by writ to the English Parliament as Baron Butler, of Moore Park, in 1666. However, he predeceased his parents who were both succeeded by their grandson, the second Duke and third Lord Dingwall. He had already succeeded his father as second Baron Butler. However, the Duke was attainted in 1715 and his titles forfeited. In 1871, Francis Cowper, 7th Earl Cowper, managed to obtain a reversal of the attainder of the lordship of Dingwall and barony of Butler and became the fourth Lord Dingwall and third Baron Butler. He was the great-great-great-grandson of Henrietta d'Auverquerque, Countess of Grantham (wife of Henry de Nassau d'Auverquerque, 1st Earl of Grantham), second daughter of Thomas Butler, Earl of Ossory and 1st Baron Butler, whose second daughter Lady Henrietta de Nassau d'Auverquerque married William Clavering-Cowper, 2nd Earl Cowper. In 1880 he also succeeded his mother as eighth Baron Lucas of Crudwell. For later history of the lordship of Dingwall and barony of Butler, see the Baron Lucas of Crudwell.

# Publius Sestius

Publius Sestius (died after 35 BC) was a Roman politician and governor in the 1st century BC.
He first appears as quaestor for the consul Gaius Antonius Hybrida and served in the campaign to put down the second Catilinarian conspiracy. He served a proquaestorship in Macedonia from 62–61 BC. He was elected as one of the tribunes of the plebs for 57 BC. During his year as tribune, he worked to have Cicero recalled from exile, combatted – with Titus Annius Milo – the urban mobs of Publius Clodius Pulcher, and also attempted to disrupt Clodius' election as aedile in that year. He was Cicero's friend and ally; Cicero later defended him in Pro Sestio on charges of public violence in 56 BC.
He also had served as praetor by 54 or 50 BC, though likely in 54 BC. Upon the outbreak of Caesar's Civil War he joined Pompey, becoming the governor of Cilicia probably with the rank of proconsul. Marcus Junius Brutus accompanied him to the province. After the Battle of Pharsalus in which Pompey was decisively defeated, Sestius was pardoned by Julius Caesar and campaigned with Gnaeus Domitius Calvinus in Asia Minor.
He was the son of a man by the same name and a woman named Postumia, and the father of Lucius Sestius.
# Parco della Resistenza in Forlì

The Parco della Resistenza ('Resistance Park') is a city park in Forlì, Italy.
It was engineered by L. Mirri in 1816 on a typical illuministic framework and renovated twice during the following century. The park was built after the fashion of typical Italian gardens although at that stage the English landscape gardens were becoming very popular too.
During those days, the center of the garden was occupied by an obelisk surrounded by symmetrical flower beds. Four more smaller centralities were distributed around four statues representing the four seasons. At the garden bottom there stood a small temple, the Kafeehaus and the keeper's house.
In 1928 the garden was completely renovated by the engineer G. Santarelli. To obtain a better drainage, the soil level was raised and pedestrians walks were separated from coaches tracks. The three bottom buildings were replaced by one single service building. During the 1970s, further works were undertaken and the garden was widened up to Viale Spazzoli.
Today the park has two entrances, one in Viale Spazzoli and a second entrance in Piazzale della Vittoria. At the entrance in Piazzale della Vittoria the municipality of Forlì has offered since 2002 a free bike-hiring service.
