Paulo de Siqueira Garcia (13 May 1959 – 30 July 2017) was a Brazilian physician and politician.
He was a member of the Workers' Party.

A collateral adjective is an adjective whose word origin is different from the noun it represents.
English has many collateral adjectives from French, Latin, and Greek, because many English words come from these languages.
For example, the adjectives for the native English words "horse" and "moon" are "equine" and "lunar".
Equine comes from the Latin "equus".
Lunar comes from the Latin "luna".
This is why the study of horses is called "equine science" and the calendar for the moon called the "lunar calendar".
Nouns sometimes have both collateral and derived adjectives -- adjectives whose origin is the same as the noun they represent.
For example, "father" has the adjective "fatherly" coming from father.
It also has the collateral adjective "paternal" from the Latin word "pater", which also means "father".

Antonius Tom Holkenborg (born 8 December 1967 in Lichtenvoorde), known by his stage name Junkie XL and occasionally JXL, is a Dutch multi-instrumentalist, composer, DJ, producer, and engineer.
Originally known for his trance productions, he has moved to producing electronica and big beat music and film scores in recent years.
Junkie XL is probably best known for his remix of Elvis Presley's "A Little Less Conversation".
In movie scores, he is perhaps known for his work on films like 300: Rise of an Empire, Mad Max: Fury Road, the Deadpool movies, and the DC Extended Universe beginning with Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice with Hans Zimmer, also contributing to the theme song for Wonder Woman.
He was originally hired to write the music for Justice League but left the project with director Zack Snyder and was replaced with Danny Elfman.
However, when Snyder was brought back to complete his version of the movie, later titled Zack Snyder's Justice League, Junkie XL was brought back as well and finished the music for it.

Jacinda Kate Laurell Ardern (; born 26 July 1980) is a New Zealand politician.
She is the 40th Prime Minister of New Zealand and Leader of the Labour Party since 2017.
She was elected to the House of Representatives in 2008.
She has been the member of Parliament (MP) for Mount Albert since March 2017.
Ardern was born in Hamilton and grew up in Morrinsville and Murupara.
After graduating from the University of Waikato in 2001, Ardern began her career working as a researcher for Prime Minister Helen Clark.
She later worked in London in the Cabinet Office, and was elected president of the International Union of Socialist Youth.
Ardern was first elected as an MP in the 2008 general election, when Labour lost control after nine years.
She was later elected to represent the Mount Albert electorate in a by-election in February 2017.
Ardern was elected Deputy Leader of the Labour Party on 1 March 2017, after the resignation of Annette King.
Just five months later, after Labour's leader Andrew Little resignation, Ardern was elected as party leader.
She led her party to win 14 seats at the 2017 general election on 23 September, winning 46 seats to the National Party's 56.
After working with New Zealand First, a minority coalition government with Labour and New Zealand First was formed, supported by the Green Party.
Ardern became Prime Minister and she was sworn in by the governor-general on 26 October 2017.
She became the world's youngest female head of government at age 37.
Ardern later became the world's second elected head of government to give birth while in office when her daughter was born in June 2018.
Ardern calls herself a social democrat and a progressive.
Her government has focused on the New Zealand housing crisis, child poverty, and social inequality.
In March 2019, she became popular because of her leadership during the Christchurch mosque shootings and for introducing strict gun laws in response.
For much of 2020, she also became popular for the country's response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Ardern led the Labour Party to a historic victory in the 2020 general election, winning a majority of 65 seats in Parliament.
Ardern was born in Hamilton, New Zealand, and grew up as a Mormon.
She was raised in Morrinsville and Murupara, where her father, Ross Ardern, worked as a police officer.
Her mother, Laurell Ardern ( Bottomley), worked as a school catering assistant.
She studied at Morrinsville College, where she was the student representative on the school's board.
She later went to the University of Waikato, graduating in 2001 with a Bachelor of Communication Studies (BCS) in politics and public relations.
Ardern joined the Labour Party at the age of 17 and became a senior figure in the Young Labour party of the party.
After graduating from university, she spent time working in the offices of Phil Goff and of Helen Clark as a researcher.
She volunteered at a soup kitchen in New York City in the United States and worked on a workers' rights campaign.
Ardern moved to London, England where she became a senior policy adviser for British prime minister Tony Blair.
Ardern also worked at the Home Office to help with a review of policing in England and Wales.
Member of Parliament, 2008–present
Early activities
Ahead of the 2008 election, Ardern was ranked 20th on Labour's party list.
She would soon return from London to campaign full-time for a seat in the New Zealand Parliament.
She also became Labour's candidate for the safe National electorate of Waikato.
Ardern lost the election, but entered Parliament as a list MP because of her high ranking in the party list.
She became the youngest sitting MP in Parliament.
Opposition Leader Phil Goff promoted Ardern to the front bench, naming her Labour's spokesperson for Youth Affairs and for Justice (Youth Affairs).
She made appearances on TVNZ's Breakfast programme as part of the "Young Guns" feature, alongside National MP and future National Party leader, Simon Bridges.
Ardern ran for the parliament seat of Auckland Central for Labour in the 2011 general election, running against incumbent National MP Nikki Kaye for National and Greens candidate Denise Roche.
She lost to Kaye by 717 votes.
However, she returned to Parliament because of her party list ranking, on which she was ranked 13th.
After Goff resigned from the Party leadership, Ardern supported David Shearer for party leader.
She was promoted to the fourth-ranking position in his Shadow Cabinet on 19 December 2011, becoming a spokesperson for social development under the new leader.
Ardern ran again in Auckland Central at the 2014 general election.
She again finished second, but increased her own vote and lowered Kaye's majority from 717 to 600.
She was soon ranked 5th on Labour's list and because of this, Ardern still returned to Parliament where she became Shadow spokesperson for Justice, Children, Small Business, and Arts & Culture under new leader Andrew Little.
Ardern later ran for the Labour nomination for the Mount Albert by-election to be held in February 2017.
The by-election was held because of the resignation of David Shearer.
When nominations for the Labour Party closed on 12 January 2017, Ardern was the only nominee and was selected.
On 21 January, Ardern took part of the 2017 Women's March, a worldwide protest in opposition to Donald Trump, the newly inaugurated President of the United States.
She was confirmed as Labour's candidate at a meeting on 22 January.
Ardern won a landslide victory, winning 77 per cent of votes cast in the preliminary results.
Deputy Leader of the Labour Party, 2017
Following her win in the by-election, Ardern was elected as Deputy Leader of the Labour Party on 7 March 2017, after the resignation of Annette King.
Ardern's vacant list seat was taken by Raymond Huo.
However, Ardern would remain as Deputy Leader for exactly five months because she was elected Leader of the Labour Party in August.
Leader of the Opposition, 2017
On 1 August 2017, just seven weeks before the 2017 general election, Ardern became Leader of the Labour Party and also Opposition Leader, after the resignation of Andrew Little.
Ardern was confirmed in an election to choose a new leader at a meeting the same day.
At 37, Ardern became the youngest leader of the Labour Party in its history.
She is also the second female leader of the party after Helen Clark.
At first, Little had talked to Ardern on 26 July and said he thought she should take over as Labour leader.
Ardern said no and told him to remain as leader.
At her first press conference after her election as leader, she said that the upcoming election campaign would be positive.
After her appointment, the party had a large amount of public campagin donations, reaching NZ$700 per minute at its highest.
When Ardern became party leader, Labour rose in opinion polls.
By late August the party had reached 43 per cent as well as beating the National Party in opinion polls for the first time in over a decade.
Critics said that her ideas were similar to Andrew Little's and believed that Labour's sudden increase in popularity was because of her youth and good looks.
In mid-August 2017, Ardern said that a Labour government would create a tax working group to look for the chance of increasing taxes for the wealthy and lowering them for middle-class working families.
This idea became unpopular and Ardern said that her tax plan would not be pushed in a first term of Labour government.
Minister of Finance Steven Joyce found that the Labour Party had problems in its $11.7 billion budget.
The Labour and Green parties' proposed water and pollution taxes also became unpopular from farmers.
On 18 September 2017, farmers and lobbyists protested against the taxes in Ardern's hometown of Morrinsville.
During the protest, one farmer had a sign calling Ardern a "pretty Communist".
This was criticised as sexist by former Prime Minister Helen Clark.
In the 2017 general election held on 23 September 2017, Ardern was re-elected to her Mount Albert electorate seat by 15,264 votes.
Preliminary results from the general election showed that Labour received 35.79 per cent of the party vote to National's 46.03 per cent.
After more votes were counted, Labour increased its votes to 36.89% while National dropped back to 44.45%.
Labour gained 14 seats, increasing its parliamentary representation to 46 seats.
This was the best result for the party since losing power in 2008.
After the election, Ardern and Deputy Leader Kelvin Davis began talks with the Greens and New Zealand First parties about forming a coalition against National Party which did not haven enough seats for a majority.
On 19 October 2017, New Zealand First leader Winston Peters agreed to form a coalition with Labour, making Ardern the next Prime Minister.
The Green Party also supported the coalition.
Ardern named Peters as Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs.
She also gave New Zealand First five posts in her government, with Peters and three other ministers in her Cabinet.
Prime Minister, 2017–present
First term, 2017–2020
Ardern was sworn-in as the 40th Prime Minister of New Zealand by Governor-General Dame Patsy Reddy on 26 October 2017.
Ardern promised that her government would have empathy and be strong.
Ardern became New Zealand's third female Prime Minister after Jenny Shipley (1997–1999) and Helen Clark (1999–2008).
She is a member of the Council of Women World Leaders.
At aged 37, Ardern is also the youngest person to become New Zealand's head of government since Edward Stafford, who became premier in 1856.
On 19 January 2018, Ardern announced that she was pregnant, and that Winston Peters would become acting Prime minister for six weeks after the birth.
Following the birth of a daughter, she took her maternity leave from 21 June to 2 August 2018.
Ardern focused on cutting child poverty in New Zealand by half within a ten years.
In July 2018, Ardern announced the start of her government's flagship Families Package.
The package would increase paid parental leave to 26 weeks and introduced a $60 per-week universal BestStart Payment for low and middle-income families with young children.
In 2019, the government a school lunches pilot programme to help cut child poverty numbers.
She also increased welfare benefits by $25, expanding free doctor's visits and giving free menstrual hygiene products in schools.
Ardern's government added increases to the country's minimum wage over a period of time.
Her government also cancelled the National Party's planned tax cuts, saying instead it would focus on healthcare and education.
The first year of post-secondary education was made free on 1 January 2018 and the government agreed to increase primary teachers' pay by 12.8 (for beginning teachers) and 18.5 per cent by 2021.
Even thought the Labour Party campaigned on a capital gains tax for the last three elections, Ardern promised in April 2019 that the government would not pass a capital gains tax under her leadership.
On 2 February 2018, Ardern went to Waitangi for the annual Waitangi Day commemoration and she stayed in Waitangi for five days.
Ardern became the first female Prime Minister to speak from the top marae.
Her visit was popular among Māori leaders, with commentators seeing the difference between her performance to the Prime Ministers before her.
In September 2019, she was criticised for her handling of an allegation of sexual assault against a Labour Party staffer.
Ardern said she had been told the allegation did not involve sexual assault or violence before a report about the incident was published in The Spinoff on 9 September.
Many did not believe this as one journalist found that Ardern's claim was hard to believe.
Ardern does not support putting people who use cannabis in prison and promised to hold a referendum on the issue.
A non-binding referendum to legalise cannabis was held at the same time of the 2020 general election.
Ardern said she used cannabis when she was young during a televised debate before the election.
In the referendum, voters did not support the proposed cannabis legalisation and many found that Ardern not supporting the 'yes' campaign may have caused the legalisation's defeat.
On 5 November 2017, Ardern made her first official trip to Australia, where she met Australian Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull for the first time.
Relations between the two countries had not been good because of Australia's treatment of New Zealanders living in the country, and shortly before taking office.
Turnbull promised to work with Ardern and not have their political beliefs in the way.
In November 2017, Ardern announced that the government would being part of the Trans-Pacific Partnership negotiations even though the Green Party did not support it.
On 25 October 2018, New Zealand ratified the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership, which Ardern had described as being better than the original TPP agreement.
On 24 September 2018, Ardern became the first female head of government to go to the United Nations General Assembly meeting with her baby present.
Her address to the General Assembly on 27 September had positive support from the United Nations where she talked about climate change, for the equality of women, and for kindness.
In October 2018, Ardern criticized China for its Xinjiang re-education camps and human rights abuses against the Uyghur Muslim minority in the country.
Ardern was also worried about the treatment of the Rohingya Muslims in Myanmar.
In November 2018, she met with Myanmar's leader Aung San Suu Kyi and offered any help New Zealand could give to solve the Rohingya crisis.
On 23 September 2019, at a United Nations summit in New York City, Ardern had her first formal meeting with U.S. President Donald Trump.
She said that Trump was interested in New Zealand's gun buyback policy.
On 15 March 2019, 51 people were fatally shot and 49 injured in two mosques in Christchurch.
In a statement broadcast on television, Ardern said that the shootings had been carried out by suspects with "extremist views" that have no place in New Zealand, or anywhere else in the world.
She also called it as a well-planned terrorist attack.
She announced a time of national mourning and created a national condolence book that she opened in the capital, Wellington.
She also travelled to Christchurch to meet first responders and families of the victims.
In an address at the Parliament, she said that she would never say the name of the attacker: "Speak the names of those who were lost rather than the name of the man who took them ... he will, when I speak, be nameless".
Ardern became popular in the country and the world for her response to the shootings.
A photograph of her hugging a member of the Christchurch Muslim community with the word "peace" in English and Arabic was projected onto the Burj Khalifa.
A  mural of this photograph was opened in May 2019.
In response to the shootings, Ardern said her government's plans to create stricter gun laws.
She said that the attack had shown many weaknesses in New Zealand's gun law.
On 10 April 2019, less than one month after the attack, the New Zealand Parliament passed a law that bans most semiautomatic weapons and assault rifles, parts that turn guns into semiautomatic guns, and higher capacity magazines.
On 15 May 2019, Ardern and French President Emmanuel Macron co-chaired the Christchurch Call summit to bring together countries and tech companies.
The goal was to stop social media's role in organising and promoting terrorism and violent extremism.
COVID-19 response
On 14 March 2020, Ardern announced the government's response to the COVID-19 pandemic in New Zealand.
She said that the government would be requiring anyone entering the country from midnight 15 March to isolate themselves for 14 days.
She said the new rules will make it harder for people to travel to the country.
On 19 March, Ardern said that New Zealand's borders would be closed to all non-citizens and non-permanent residents, after 11:59 pm on 20 March (NZDT).
Ardern announced that New Zealand would move to a nationwide lockdown, at 11:59 pm on 25 March.
National and international media had positive responses about her leadership and quick response to the outbreak in New Zealand.
The Washington Post said her interviews, press conferences and social media is an example of what a leader should do.
In mid-April 2020, two people sued Ardern and other government officials, saying that the lockdown limited their freedoms and was made for political reasons.
Opinion polls showed the Labour Party with nearly 60 per cent support.

The Room is a 2003 American independent romantic drama movie.
It stars Tommy Wiseau.
He also wrote, directed, produced it.
The movie is mainly about a love affair where a banker named Johnny (played by Wiseau), is cheated on by his future wife Lisa (Juliette Danielle), with his best friend Mark (Greg Sestero).
The movie is considered by many to be the worst movie ever made, but is enjoyed by a cult audience for its odd story structure, having bad acting and being funny, although mostly not on purpose.
A lot of the movie brings up unrelated subplots that do not get solved.
Most of these have at least one supporting character.
There is also confusion about why the movie is called "The Room", but Wiseau says he named it that because a room in a house is where lots of good and bad things take place.
