] | easy | Which title was conferred to Anna Rudolf in 2005? | /wiki/Anna_Rudolf#P2962#2 | Anna Rudolf Anna Rudolf ( born 12 November 1987 ) is a Hungarian chess player , chess commentator , Twitch live streamer , and YouTuber who holds the titles of International Master ( IM ) and Woman Grandmaster ( WGM ) . She is a three-time Hungarian womens national champion and has represented Hungary at the Chess Olympiad and the European Team Chess Championship . Rudolf has a peak FIDE rating of 2393 and a career-best ranking of No . 71 in the world among women . Rudolf began playing chess with her younger sister Kata when she was four years old . They had success at a young age , both qualifying for the World Youth Chess Championships , where Rudolf finished in the top ten of the under-12 girls division in 1999 . In Hungary , she became a three-time girls national champion , once each at the under-12 and under-16 youth levels and the under-20 junior level . At the senior level , Rudolf qualified for the Woman Grandmaster title in 2007 when she reached a rating of 2300 and earned three WGM norms , including a double norm at the European Individual Womens Chess Championship , all at age 19 . Rudolf did not qualify for the International Master title until seven years later in 2014 , having earned her three IM norms years apart in 2007 , 2010 , and 2014 , and briefly reaching the rating threshold of 2400 in 2010 . One of her best tournament results came at the 2007 Vandœuvre Open where she had a career-best performance rating of 2541 and earned both her last WGM norm and first IM norm . In her career , she has defeated two Grandmasters ( GM ) rated above 2600 , Yaroslav Zherebukh and Christian Bauer , who had ratings of 2642 and 2634 at the time of their games . Outside of her playing career , Rudolf is a regular chess commentator at high-profile tournaments , having worked with both Chess.com and chess24 . She was the official commentator for the 2018 World Chess Championship together with her childhood idol Judit Polgár . She had started producing instructional videos for chess24 in 2013 , and has co-hosted a series with fellow IM Sopiko Guramishvili where they are known respectively as Miss Strategy and Miss Tactics . Since 2017 , Rudolf has not played any competitive chess tournaments and focused primarily on her broadcasting career . She launched her own Twitch channel in 2018 and also runs her own YouTube channel . Early life and background . Anna Rudolf was born on 12 November 1987 in Miskolc , Hungary . She grew up with her younger sister Kata in the small town of Bátaszék . Her father László Rudolf is an experienced chess player with a peak FIDE rating of 2185 , and has also been a world champion of hexagonal chess . Rudolf learned how to play chess at the age of four with her sister through the Battle Chess computer game , which follows the same rules as chess while also animating moves and captures anthropomorphically . At nine years old , she drew media attention for defeating Lajos Portisch , a Hungarian Grandmaster ( GM ) , as a participant in a simultaneous exhibition . While growing up , Rudolf was coached by Béla Molnár . She won the under-12 girls division of an international youth chess tournament in Visegrád in 1998 , while her sister won the under-10 girls division . They had both finished runner-up one age group lower a year earlier . Rudolf won the under-12 girls division of the Hungarian national championship in 1999 , the same year her sister won the under-10 girls division . With these victories , they both qualified for the European Youth and World Youth Chess Championships . Rudolf finished in equal ninth place out of 66 competitors in the under-12 girls division at the 1999 World Youth Chess Championship with a score of , three behind the winner Nana Dzagnidze . Chess career . 2000–03 : Under-16 girls national champion . Rudolf first reached a FIDE rating above 2000 in January 2000 at the age of 12 , having been rated 2087 on that list . She rose to a rating of 2100 in the middle of 2002 at age 14 mainly from two second-place finishes at the First Saturday FM B tournament in Budapest and the under-20 Hungarian Junior Girls Championship in Paks . She scored 4/8 in Budapest in a field of six competitors . She scored 6/9 in Paks , only behind Lili Tóth . Although she only scored 3½/8 against her rated opponents at the Pula Open in Croatia the next month , she also gained 25 rating points there as well . Rudolf rose another 100 points again the following year , reaching 2200 in July 2003 at age 15 . Her best performance during this span came at the Zalakaros Cup Open in May , where she score 5½/9 against opponents with a much-higher average rating of 2304 to gain 45 rating points . In the second half of the year , Rudolf had one of her best results in both national and international competitions . First , she won the under-16 Hungarian girls national championship with an unbeaten 5½/6 , which was 1½ points ahead of second place . Several months later , she entered the under-16 girls division at the World Youth Championship in Kallithea in Greece and finished equal fourth with a score of 7½/11 , one point behind the leaders . 2004–07 : Junior national champion , WIM and WGM titles . Rudolf maintained a steady rating of around 2200 for a three-year period from mid-2003 until mid-2006 . At the 2004 under-20 Hungarian Junior Girls Championship , she finished in third place for the second consecutive year . She played the under-18 the following year in 2005 , and also finished in third place . During 2005 , Rudolf was awarded the Woman International Master ( WIM ) title . She resumed rising in rating in large part from another strong performance in Zalakaros , where she scored an even 4½/9 against opponents with a much-higher average rating of 2387 to gain 32 rating points . Rudolf closed out the year with a good performance at the World Junior Chess Championship in Yerevan in Armenia , scoring 8½/13 in the girls division to finish in equal fifth , just a ½ point behind the leaders . She finished 2006 with a rating of 2279 , having just turned 19 years old . During 2007 , Rudolf fulfilled both her norm and rating requirements for the Woman Grandmaster ( WGM ) title . At the beginning of the year , Rudolf won the under-20 Hungarian Junior Girls Championship , scoring 1½ points ahead of second place with 8/9 and gaining enough rating to cross 2300 , the threshold for the WGM title . In April , she earned her first two WGM norms as a double norm at the European Individual Womens Chess Championship , scoring 6½/11 . After a poor performance at the World Junior Chess Championship in Yerevan where she lost 51 rating points with 5/11 , Rudolf produced the best result of her career by performance rating at the 2007 Vandœuvre Open in late December . She won the first four rounds of the event , including victories over Christian Bauer and Cyril Marzolo , the former of which was the top seed and a GM rated 2634 , and the latter was an IM rated 2478 . After a loss to the eventual tournament winner Thorsten-Michael Haub , she won a fifth game against Vera Nebolsina and finished in ninth place with 6/9 . She faced the most difficult opposition in the tournament with her opponents having an average rating of 2421 . She squandered an opportunity to finish equal first by losing her last game , which she had needed to win , against Ilmārs Starostīts . The tournament became enshrouded in controversy when three Latvian players , including her opponent Starostīts , falsely accused Rudolf of cheating by hiding a computer in her lip balm . Starostīts in particular asked the arbiter to confiscate her belongings and refused to shake her hand before their game , an action which could have been penalized . Marie Boyarchenko , another player at the event , believed these actions were key factors in Rudolf losing that last-round game . Overall , Rudolf compiled a performance rating of 2541 , second only to the winner Haub and sufficient for both her final WGM norm as well as her first IM norm . She was officially awarded the WGM title in 2008 . 2008–11 : Three-time national champion , second IM norm , 2400 rating . Over the next four years , Rudolf won the Hungarian womens national championship three times in 2008 , 2010 , and 2011 . Her first national championship in the 2008 event came in a knockout tournament in which she won the final against Veronika Schneider . After the tournament switched to a 10-player round robin , she won the 2010 event easily by 1½ points over Tóth and Melinda Göcző with a score of 7½/9 . The 2011 event was more competitive , ending with three players tied for first with 6/9 and Rudolf winning over Schneider and Ticia Gara on the tiebreak criteria . Overall , Rudolf maintained a rating near 2300 for about three years from when she first achieved it through March 2010 . She reached a new career-best rating of 2337 in the middle of 2008 by following up her excellent performance at the Vandœuvre Open with good results at the Open International de Cappelle in February , the Kaupthing Open A in May , and the Hungarian Team Championship Final that was played twice a month from October through May . Rudolfs last major rating climb occurred in the middle of 2010 . In February , she participated in the Talent and Courage IM tournament in Szentgotthárd in her home country , a ten-player round robin for talented young players that was held in conjunction with a GM tournament . As only the seventh-highest rated player , she won the event with a score of 6½/9 , a ½ point ahead of Attila Gergacz , who with a rating of 2421 was the highest-rated player participating . She was undefeated at the tournament , and won her games against both the second and third place finishers . With a performance rating of 2499 , she also earned her second IM norm . This helped her reach another career-best rating at 2344 in May 2010 . In the next list for July 2010 , Rudolf rose to a rating of 2393 , the highest published rating of her career and putting her among the top 100 womens players at No . 71 in the world . This climb of nearly 50 points was primarily from winning her second national championship as well as another good performance in the half-year-long Hungarian Team Championship Final . She entered her first tournament of the next rating period , the Heart Of Finland , needing seven rating points to reach 2400 . After a last-round win against Mikael Agopov , a Finnish IM rated 2436 , she reached an unpublished rating of 2397.80 , having gained 4.80 points at the event . She then began her next event , the Open Internacional Hotel Avenida de Canarias in Spain , with two wins against much lower-rated players . As a result , Rudolf reached an overall career-best unpublished rating of 2401.25 , passing the 2400 threshold required for the IM title , and only needed one more IM norm to qualify for the title . Nonetheless , she did not finish that tournament well and ended up keeping a rating of around 2350 through the end of 2011 . 2012–17 : International Master title . Rudolf was unable to match her success in the Hungarian womens national championship the remaining times she participated . As the two-time defending champion in 2012 , she finished in joint fourth with a score of 5/9 , 1½ points behind the winner Petra Papp . The following year , she finished in third place with 5½/9 , but two points behind the winner Anita Gara . Rudolf kept a steady rating in the low 2300s and high 2200s for about four years from mid-2012 through mid-2016 , having fallen slightly from her peak in 2010 . At the 2012 Open International de Cappelle , Rudolf won a game against Yaroslav Zherebukh , a GM who with a rating of 2642 was the highest-rated player she ever defeated . In the middle of 2014 , Rudolf earned her final IM norm in the Master Open at the Biel Chess Festival in Switzerland . She scored 6/11 and was able to count her performance of 5½/9 in the first nine rounds towards a norm . She was awarded the International Master title in 2015 . In the middle of 2016 , Rudolf had her first significant longterm drop in rating in years . After only scoring 4/11 at the European Individual Womens Chess Championship , highlighted by losses against lower-rated players in the last three rounds , she lost 54 rating points . Because she only participated in a few tournaments thereafter , she kept a rating near 2250 for a little over a year . Nonetheless , Rudolf was able to regain that lost rating and more in the last two events of her career in late 2017 . At her penultimate tournament , she scored 5½/7 at the CE Division de Honor in Spain , a team club competition . Although she and her teammate Yuriy Kuzubov were among three players who tied for the highest individual score among all participants , her team did not perform well . For her last event , Rudolf played the Isle of Man International Masters , one of the worlds leading open tournaments . She scored 4½/9 against opponents with an average rating of 2466 , a performance above the level needed for IM norms . Her three wins included one against Harika Dronavalli , a GM who is one of the leading womens players . Between these last two events , Rudolf gained 65 rating points to finish her competitive playing career with a rating of 2325 . National representation . Chess Olympiad . Rudolf was a member of the Hungary Chess Olympiad womens team from 2008 to 2012 . She made her debut at the 2008 Dresden Olympiad on the fourth board , playing behind Hoang Thanh Trang , Szidonia Vajda , and Ildikó Mádl . She had an average performance , scoring 5/9 as Hungary finished in 14th place out of 112 teams with a team score of 14 points Rudolf was again on the fourth board at the 2010 Khanty-Mansiysk Olympiad behind the same three teammates , with Mádl swapping boards with Vajda . As a team , Hungary produced a near-identical result with the exact same team score and a 15th-place finish . Rudolf did not have as good of a performance , scoring 2½/5 and being substituted for reserve player Ticia Gara in the other six rounds . Rudolf made her last Olympiad appearance at the 2012 Istanbul Olympiad , this time on the third board behind Hoang and Ticia Gara and ahead of Anita Gara as well as Papp , who was given a significant number of games as a reserve . Hungary again had the exact same team score , this time putting them in 17th place . Rudolf scored better than her other Olympiads with 5/8 , but still performed slightly below expectation based on her rating . European Team Chess Championship . Rudolf also represented Hungary in the womens division at the European Team Chess Championship from 2009 to 2015 , an event that is held every two years like the Chess Olympiad . At her first event , she played the second board behind Szidonia and ahead of the Gara sisters . She had a good performance , scoring 4/7 and gaining 10 rating points . Hungary finished in 10th place out of 28 teams with 10 points Rudolfs best performance at the event came in 2013 . Although she was the reserve player , she had the opportunity to play all but one round and scored 6½/8 , compiling a performance rating of 2395 and gaining 20 rating points . Hungary also produced their best result in the years Rudolf participated , finishing in sixth place with 11 points Playing style . Rudolf primarily plays 1.e4 ( the Kings Pawn Game ) compared to 1.d4 ( the Queens Pawn Game ) or other first moves . When playing against 1.e4 , she prefers to respond with the French defense ( 1.e4 e6 ) , which she often continues with the Tarrasch Morozevich variation ( 1.e4 e6 2.d4 d5 3.Nd2 Be7 ) . When facing 1.d4 , she commonly defends with the Queens Gambit Declined ( 1.d4 d5 2.c4 e6 ) . Broadcasting career . Rudolf began her online instructional career by creating a video series for chess24 in 2013 . The following year , she teamed up with fellow International Master Sopiko Guramishvili to launch the long-running Miss Strategy and Miss Tactics video series on chess24 in which they aim to combine strategical and tactical approaches to chess with Rudolf as Miss Strategy and Guramishvili as Miss Tactics . Rudolf had already begun to combine teaching chess with her playing career when she moved to Madrid in 2010 . On chess24 , she presents content both in English and in Spanish . Rudolf has also released several online training courses , including one titled the Anna Rudolf Method and another via the Chessable course website on attacking strategies in chess . Rudolf is one of the leading chess commentators . Together with Judit Polgár , she co-hosted the official coverage of the 2018 World Chess Championship match between Magnus Carlsen and Fabiano Caruana . She has also commentated on the Grand Chess Tour .

Rudolf launched her own YouTube channel in 2016 and began streaming on her own Twitch channel in 2018 . She complements her focus on chess on her YouTube and Twitch channels with variety content as well . Personal life . Rudolf studied Russian and English at the University of Pécs .

They were introduced to each other by their mutual friend RTGame at TwitchCon Europe in Berlin in April 2019 , and live in OReillys native Cork . Rudolfs childhood idol was her compatriot Judit Polgár , who is widely acknowledged as the greatest female chess player of all time . Rudolf had the opportunity to play against Polgár at age 11 when she traveled to Budapest to participate in a simultaneous exhibition given by Polgár . Since becoming a commentator , she has become good friends with Polgár , helping to promote the annual Global Chess Festival started by Polgár , and commentating on the 2018 World Chess Championship together .

Nikes apparel businesss annual revenue was $2.7 billion when she joined in 2000 ; by the end of fiscal year 2005 she had grown it to $4.1 billion , which was 32% of Nike brand revenues . 2006 to 2017 : HSN . Arrival at HSN . By 2006 , after six years at Nike , Grossman desired a CEO position , preferably in a company where she did not need to commute across the country as she did at Nike . Nike had recently appointed its own new CEO and a new president , so she actively looked to find an opportunity in another company , seeking this time one that was direct-to-consumer , entrepreneurial but not a start-up , and one that she could transform by taking advantage of new technological advances . A recruiter approached her about IAC/InterActiveCorp ( IAC ) , the parent company of HSN , Inc. , and after studying HSNs broadcasts she realized that , in her words , HSN really needed to become more of a lifestyle network that would inspire people through products . Her vision was to offer inspiring lifestyle programming , particularly with charismatic celebrities , with all the products for sale – rather than the usual dry and old-fashioned standard sales format . She took the idea to Barry Diller , the head of IAC , and even though she had no television experience , no direct-to-consumer experience , and no experience in most of the product categories HSN sold , he hired her . In April 2006 , Grossman was appointed CEO of IAC Retailing , overseeing HSN , the catalog company Cornerstone Brands , Shoebuy.com , and IACs international retailing operations . HSN had had seven CEOs in the previous 10 years , and according to Grossman the company , offices , and employees seemed downtrodden and frozen in time . One of her first actions was to throw out all the old , broken , or dirty office furniture and give all employees Aeron chairs . In order to focus on revitalizing HSN , she closed IACs failing UK auction business , sold its German shopping channel , closed the down-market DirecTV clearance-shopping channel , and put another executive in charge of Cornerstone brands . She also eliminated negative or toxic employees , sought out committed , knowledgeable people within and outside the company to head up important divisions , and ensured that all employees were on board with the companys new vision . She also found that the network and brand itself was a very stagnant , linear , non-immersive experience . By October 2006 she rolled out HSNs new brand image , tagline , vision statement , customer intention , and advertising . The companys new manifesto was to create a new lifestyle experience for consumers . To implement the plan , she stopped selling $150 million worth of unsuitable brands , and worked hard to entice higher-end brands , and new personalities to sell products . Among many others , early on she recruited Sephora , Emeril Lagasse , and Todd English to sell on air . She also aired a two-hour fashion show of high-end apparel . In addition , she brought the companys call centers back to the U.S . from overseas . HSN relaunch and taking the company public . By mid 2007 the relaunch and redesign of HSNs channel , website , and campus were in effect , and the business started to turn around . In November of that year , Diller decided to break up IAC into several of its constituent companies , and to spin off HSN , Inc . as a public company via an IPO with Grossman as CEO . The IPO launched in August 2008 . A few weeks later the Lehman Brothers collapse occurred , with the subsequent stock-market plunge and recession . Grossman kept HSN afloat and thriving during the tenuous recessional years of 2008 and 2009 via intense economies and stringent dedication to her vision , and by tailoring HSNs marketing to her customers needs to economize . She continued to aggressively transform , redefine , and reinvent the HSN brand , improving its demographics and increasing the value of its stock from $10 at its IPO in August 2008 to $55 a share in 2014 . HSNs success fostered the launch of a second 24-hour television channel , HSN2 , in 2010 . Grossmans turn-around approach was multi-faceted : she upgraded product level to high-end products ; aggressively and preemptively implemented numerous digital and mobile access options ; made the shopping experience fun , immersive , entertaining , creative , informative , exciting , interactive , and inspiring ; and brought on board major celebrities and high-end fashion designers to sell their lines , most of them exclusive to HSN . Under her leadership HSN became a multi-platform business , providing a seamless shopping experience across multiple channels and platforms , accessible anytime and anywhere , that was entertaining , fun , and exciting . Forbes and Fortune termed the new brand a hybrid – a media , entertainment , technology , and retail business . Determined to stay ahead of the curve on the technology front , Grossman also introduced new HSN venues including Shop by Remote ( television remote control shopping ) , HSN Arcade ( online games ) , Video on Demand , HSN Live , shopping via YouTube , and in-flight shopping . She overhauled HSNs website and made HSN a major e-commerce presence ; as of 2013 HSN.com is one of the top 10 most-trafficked e-commerce sites . She evolved HSN from a linear network to a multi-platform business , creating a boundaryless retail ; according to Fast Company , nearly half the HSNs revenue comes through digital platforms . She recruited major celebrities such as Jennifer Lopez , Queen Latifah , Mariah Carey , Iman , P . Diddy , Padma Lakshmi , Martha Stewart , Jessica Simpson , Keith Urban , Nicki Minaj , Mary J . Blige , and Serena Williams , and major cosmetics companies such as Lancôme and Stila , to appear on the network and sell their own brands of merchandise , most of them exclusively created for HSN . She brought in high-end fashion designers to sell exclusive fashion lines on the network , garnering Grossman and HSN a front row at Fashion Week . She also created partnerships with major companies like Disney and other Hollywood studios to sell merchandise , invited movie and television-series tie-ins , and aired live concerts by singers such as Rod Stewart and Randy Travis . HSN became a Fortune 1000 company in 2009 . As of 2014 , Grossman is one of only 51 women who lead a Fortune 1000 company . In 2015 , Fortune published an article stating that from 2002 through 2014 , Fortune 1000 companies led by women have performed three times better than the S&P 500 , and that HSNs returns since its IPO were one of the top two , even despite the stock-market meltdown which immediately followed its initial public offering . Other retailers , including Penneys , Target , and Avon , have attempted to recruit Grossman to head their companies . 2017 to present : WW . Arrival at WW . On April 26 , 2017 , Weight Watchers ( now WW ) announced that Mindy Grossman would take over as CEO in July 2017 , replacing former CEO James Chambers who resigned from the company in the fall of 2016 .

After 28 years in the apparel industry , including nine highly successful years at Ralph Lauren Corporation and six equally successful years at Nike , she became CEO of HSN in 2006 . She aggressively reinvented and relaunched the brand , took HSN public in 2008 , and oversaw its multi-billion-dollar retail portfolio and multimedia expansion . In July 2017 she left HSN to become CEO of WW International . Early life and education . Mindy Grossman was born September 8 , 1957 .

Career . 1977–1991 . Grossman moved to New York City in 1977 , and was offered a job working for a company called Manhattan International . It was a menswear conglomerate at the time , and she was an assistant to the president of their international division . From 1978 to 1980 , she was an account executive at Jeffrey Banks menswear .

From 1991 to 2000 , Grossman worked for brands by Ralph Lauren . From 1991 to 1994 , she was President of Chaps Ralph Lauren , a division of Warnaco , Inc. , and she was Senior Vice President of Menswear for Warnaco , Inc . during those years as well . Chaps was Ralph Laurens midprice department-store brand ; She turned around the Chaps division and grew its annual revenues from $26 million to $250 million . She was Vice-President of New Business Development at Polo Ralph Lauren Corporation from 1994 to 1995 . During that period , she developed new brand concepts , including Polo Jeans . She convinced Lauren that in order to attract customers at a younger age he needed to embrace new ideas , and that Polo Jeans Company was a good way to make lifelong customers out of a younger audience . Grossman calls starting Polo Jeans my start-up experience ; she was its President and CEO from 1995 to 2000 , launched the brand in 1996 , and took it from a standing start to a $450 million business , building it into the leading department store status denim brand . Nike . In 2000 , Grossman joined Nike , Inc. , where she served as Vice President of Global Apparel from 2000 to 2006 , overseeing its worldwide multi-billion-dollar apparel business . Nike CEO Phil Knight had brought her in to revive Nikes sagging apparel business , capitalizing on her expertise in fashion , brand strategy , product development , and retail space management . In her capacity as head of global apparel , she oversaw global strategic planning ; product development ; and global apparel manufacturing , operations , sourcing , merchandising , advanced innovation , quality assurance , and compliance and sustainability . She was also responsible for Nikes womens business . She aggressively and successfully reengineered the entire apparel organization , and created three sub-brands for Nike apparel : Nike Performance , targeted to athletes and aspirational consumers ; Nike Active , a line to be worn from gym to street ; and Nike Fusion , apparel with higher-performance fabrics and aggressive styling . Under her leadership , Nike also rolled out new NikeWomen stores , launched NikeWomen catalogues , and started a new division called Fitness Dance . She advanced Nikes apparel innovation agenda , led the development and growth of the global womens business , and created and co-chaired Nike’s Global Women’s Leadership Council . Grossman was credited with showing a footwear company how to be an apparel company . She brought her strong fashion background to Nikes apparel and regenerated it , devoting much of her energy to the companys weaker womens wear business . Nikes apparel businesss annual revenue was $2.7 billion when she joined in 2000 ; by the end of fiscal year 2005 she had grown it to $4.1 billion , which was 32% of Nike brand revenues . 2006 to 2017 : HSN . Arrival at HSN . By 2006 , after six years at Nike , Grossman desired a CEO position , preferably in a company where she did not need to commute across the country as she did at Nike . Nike had recently appointed its own new CEO and a new president , so she actively looked to find an opportunity in another company , seeking this time one that was direct-to-consumer , entrepreneurial but not a start-up , and one that she could transform by taking advantage of new technological advances . A recruiter approached her about IAC/InterActiveCorp ( IAC ) , the parent company of HSN , Inc. , and after studying HSNs broadcasts she realized that , in her words , HSN really needed to become more of a lifestyle network that would inspire people through products . Her vision was to offer inspiring lifestyle programming , particularly with charismatic celebrities , with all the products for sale – rather than the usual dry and old-fashioned standard sales format . She took the idea to Barry Diller , the head of IAC , and even though she had no television experience , no direct-to-consumer experience , and no experience in most of the product categories HSN sold , he hired her . In April 2006 , Grossman was appointed CEO of IAC Retailing , overseeing HSN , the catalog company Cornerstone Brands , Shoebuy.com , and IACs international retailing operations . HSN had had seven CEOs in the previous 10 years , and according to Grossman the company , offices , and employees seemed downtrodden and frozen in time . One of her first actions was to throw out all the old , broken , or dirty office furniture and give all employees Aeron chairs . In order to focus on revitalizing HSN , she closed IACs failing UK auction business , sold its German shopping channel , closed the down-market DirecTV clearance-shopping channel , and put another executive in charge of Cornerstone brands . She also eliminated negative or toxic employees , sought out committed , knowledgeable people within and outside the company to head up important divisions , and ensured that all employees were on board with the companys new vision . She also found that the network and brand itself was a very stagnant , linear , non-immersive experience . By October 2006 she rolled out HSNs new brand image , tagline , vision statement , customer intention , and advertising . The companys new manifesto was to create a new lifestyle experience for consumers . To implement the plan , she stopped selling $150 million worth of unsuitable brands , and worked hard to entice higher-end brands , and new personalities to sell products . Among many others , early on she recruited Sephora , Emeril Lagasse , and Todd English to sell on air . She also aired a two-hour fashion show of high-end apparel . In addition , she brought the companys call centers back to the U.S . from overseas . HSN relaunch and taking the company public . By mid 2007 the relaunch and redesign of HSNs channel , website , and campus were in effect , and the business started to turn around . In November of that year , Diller decided to break up IAC into several of its constituent companies , and to spin off HSN , Inc . as a public company via an IPO with Grossman as CEO . The IPO launched in August 2008 . A few weeks later the Lehman Brothers collapse occurred , with the subsequent stock-market plunge and recession . Grossman kept HSN afloat and thriving during the tenuous recessional years of 2008 and 2009 via intense economies and stringent dedication to her vision , and by tailoring HSNs marketing to her customers needs to economize . She continued to aggressively transform , redefine , and reinvent the HSN brand , improving its demographics and increasing the value of its stock from $10 at its IPO in August 2008 to $55 a share in 2014 . HSNs success fostered the launch of a second 24-hour television channel , HSN2 , in 2010 . Grossmans turn-around approach was multi-faceted : she upgraded product level to high-end products ; aggressively and preemptively implemented numerous digital and mobile access options ; made the shopping experience fun , immersive , entertaining , creative , informative , exciting , interactive , and inspiring ; and brought on board major celebrities and high-end fashion designers to sell their lines , most of them exclusive to HSN . Under her leadership HSN became a multi-platform business , providing a seamless shopping experience across multiple channels and platforms , accessible anytime and anywhere , that was entertaining , fun , and exciting . Forbes and Fortune termed the new brand a hybrid – a media , entertainment , technology , and retail business . Determined to stay ahead of the curve on the technology front , Grossman also introduced new HSN venues including Shop by Remote ( television remote control shopping ) , HSN Arcade ( online games ) , Video on Demand , HSN Live , shopping via YouTube , and in-flight shopping . She overhauled HSNs website and made HSN a major e-commerce presence ; as of 2013 HSN.com is one of the top 10 most-trafficked e-commerce sites . She evolved HSN from a linear network to a multi-platform business , creating a boundaryless retail ; according to Fast Company , nearly half the HSNs revenue comes through digital platforms . She recruited major celebrities such as Jennifer Lopez , Queen Latifah , Mariah Carey , Iman , P . Diddy , Padma Lakshmi , Martha Stewart , Jessica Simpson , Keith Urban , Nicki Minaj , Mary J . Blige , and Serena Williams , and major cosmetics companies such as Lancôme and Stila , to appear on the network and sell their own brands of merchandise , most of them exclusively created for HSN . She brought in high-end fashion designers to sell exclusive fashion lines on the network , garnering Grossman and HSN a front row at Fashion Week . She also created partnerships with major companies like Disney and other Hollywood studios to sell merchandise , invited movie and television-series tie-ins , and aired live concerts by singers such as Rod Stewart and Randy Travis . HSN became a Fortune 1000 company in 2009 . As of 2014 , Grossman is one of only 51 women who lead a Fortune 1000 company . In 2015 , Fortune published an article stating that from 2002 through 2014 , Fortune 1000 companies led by women have performed three times better than the S&P 500 , and that HSNs returns since its IPO were one of the top two , even despite the stock-market meltdown which immediately followed its initial public offering . Other retailers , including Penneys , Target , and Avon , have attempted to recruit Grossman to head their companies . 2017 to present : WW . Arrival at WW . On April 26 , 2017 , Weight Watchers ( now WW ) announced that Mindy Grossman would take over as CEO in July 2017 , replacing former CEO James Chambers who resigned from the company in the fall of 2016 . Once in office , she said that her plan included a push beyond dieting and into well-being , as well as a partnership with Oprah Winfrey , who holds almost 15% of WWs shares and sits on its board of directors .

"Haarlem city hall"
] | easy | Where was Frans Hals Museum located from 1862 to 1913? | /wiki/Frans_Hals_Museum#P276#0 | Frans Hals Museum The Frans Hals Museum is a museum located in Haarlem , the Netherlands . The museum was established in 1862 . In 1950 , the museum was split in two locations when the collection of modern art was moved to the Museum De Hallen ( since 2018 called Hal ) . The main collection , including its famous 17th-century Frans Hals paintings , for which the museum is named , is located in the former Oude Mannenhuis on the Groot Heiligland . The museum was founded in 1862 in the newly renovated former Dominican church cloisters located in the back of the Haarlem city hall known as the Prinsenhof , and when it needed more space , it moved to the recently vacated location of the town orphanage in 1913 . The collection is based on the large number of paintings owned by the City of Haarlem , which includes over 100 artworks seized from Catholic churches in the 1580s after the Protestant Reformation , and Haarlem art rescued from demolished local buildings from the 15th century onwards . In 2018 the museum re-merged with Museum De Hallen to form a single museum called the Frans Hals Museum with two locations : Hof ( located on Groot Heiligland ) and Hal ( located on Grote Markt ) . History of the Old Mens Almshouse . The Haarlem Oude Mannenhuis was a hofje founded in 1609 . The residential rooms were situated around a courtyard in the style of contemporary Haarlem Hofjes . Each of the thirty little houses was inhabited by two men ; to be eligible to living there they had to be at least 60 years old , honest Haarlem residents , and single . They were required to bring their own household goods listed as a bed , a chair with a cushion , a tin chamberpot , three blankets , six good shirts and six nightcaps . They were locked in each night at eight oclock in the summer and at seven in the winter . The residents had to make a weekly collection with a poor-box , and a statue of a man holding this can be seen in the entrance hall of the museum . The old mens home was governed by five regents , whose portraits , painted by Frans Hals in 1664 , are on display . Though the mens home dates from 1609 , only the main hall is still mostly intact . During the intervening centuries the complex was renovated beyond recognition , most notably by the previous inhabitants , the Haarlem municipal orphanage which made use of the complex from 1810 until 1908 , when it moved to the Coen Cuserhof .

The older pieces of the museum collection , consisting of primarily religious themes , are Haarlem relics from the Reformation , when all Roman Catholic art was formally seized by the city council in 1648 . Frans Hals himself worked as the first official city-paid restorer for some of these pieces . The city council then proceeded in the 17th century to rewrite Haarlem history , and purchased various large pieces to decorate the city hall , telling stories such as the legend of Damiate , or the legend of the Haarlem Shield . During this time the city hall functioned as a semi-public museum , though the term didnt even exist yet . The first signs of an official museum with a curator occurred when the Dutch Society of Science , founded in 1752 , started to rent the Prinsenhof room of the city hall in 1754 for its meetings and began to furnish it as a Cabinet of curiosities . From an inventory list in the city archives it can be seen that they used as a model for their system of naming and presentation , the book Amboinsche Rariteitkamer by Georg Eberhard Rumphius . They shared the room with the Synod of the Dutch Reformed Church , that used it once every six years for its meetings . They hired a woman for the dusting and serving tea , and in 1768 they hired a man as curator , who was responsible for the entire collection and the medical Hortus garden in the yard . The spacious room soon proved too small for the number of donated artifacts it received from its members , thanks to the increase in shipping and associated travel . In the late 18th century and early 19th century , Haarlem became a bedroom community of Amsterdam , with many wealthy bankers becoming members of the young Society . The old paintings became just a colorful backdrop for chests filled with stuffed animals and prepared specimens . In 1777 the Society moved its overflowing collection to a renovated house on the Grote Houtstraat , where the new young curator Martin van Marum would live the rest of his life . This building , situated next to the Mennonite church , was mortgaged with the Mennonite banker Pieter Teyler van der Hulst , who was not a member of the Society , but who created his own arts society and whose later testament would be the basis for the Teylers Museum , where van Marum would also become curator . This move essentially split the collection , and the natural history half is currently in the collection of the Teylers Museum . Though the paintings and the garden remained back at city hall , 40 years after Carl Linnaeus had published his Systema Naturae no one was interested in the garden ( which was set up as a living version of that book ) , and still fewer people were interested in the religious art . The city hall was seen as a depot of large pieces of historical importance , and the next large group of paintings to join the collection occurred when Napoleon disbanded the guilds in the Netherlands in 1794 . The guilds property reverted to the state . This is how the larger pieces that Hals painted for the guilds came into the collection . Without an official curator , the painting collection was only available to be seen by appointment with the city clerk , a situation that has remained up to the present day for the large pieces still located there , such as the whalebone from Willem Barentsz trip to Nova Zembla or the portrait of Kenau Simonsdochter Hasselaer . Collection as of 1862 . In the mid-19th century the back cloisters were given an extra floor for additional showing space , and it was at this time that the museum opened its doors to the public via a separate entrance than the main city hall entrance . This was also the first time that all the group portraits could be shown hanging near each other . No works of modern art were bought at that time , and the decision to form the museum was to cater to the visitors of other Haarlem museums . At the time , modern art could be seen at the nearby Teylers Eerste Schilderijenzaal in Teylers Museum , and also in the gallery of the Museum voor Levende Nederlandsche Meesters , otherwise known as the Haarlemsche Paviljoen , a museum that was open from 1838 until 1885 in the former home of Henry Hope he called Villa Welgelegen . The art critic Victor de Stuers was very angry about Haarlem being the location of such museums , as there was no artistic climate there to speak of . He criticized the collection at the Paviljoen for lacking works by contemporary painters such as Israëls , Bosboom , Bles , Bisschop , van de Sande Bakhuijzen , Bakker Korff , and Alma Tadema , and though works by these painters were already on view at Teylers at the time , the Frans Hals museum collection only has a few paintings by the first two in their collection today . Stuers also felt it was a scandal that the city fathers in charge of the municipal museum made no effort to stop the sale of a to the Brussels museum in 1872 . Thus this antiquated collection is the one that was transferred to the Groot Heiligland in 1913 , and large pieces that were not in the cloisters at that time , such as the painting by Dirck Ferreris installed in the mayors room , remained at city hall . A few of these were formally given to the museum in 1962 , such as The Banquet of the Officers of the St Adrian Militia Company in 1627 and The Officers of the St Adrian Militia Company in 1630 . In 1962 when the museum celebrated its 100th anniversary as a municipal collection , the collection had already been split again into a modern and a classical one , with the modern art housed in a new wing on the north side of the complex . Today the modern art is displayed in the Verweyhal . The museum celebrated its 100th anniversary on the Groot Heiligland in 2013 with a Frans Hals exhibition that included reproductions being placed around the city in original locations . Collection on display . Aside from several works by Hals and other artworks originally from the collections of many former guilds , monasteries and churches of Haarlem , the collection of over 750 works also includes objects relating to Haarlem that have been acquired by local donations and purchases . The museum is specialized in restoration and research on the works of Haarlem painters in the 17th century and of the painters of the 16th century who taught them to paint , most notably Jan van Scorel , Maerten van Heemskerck , Hendrick Goltzius and Cornelis van Haarlem . In the late 19th century the museum became something of a pilgrimage site for young impressionists , who were fascinated by the loose brushwork visible in the two group portraits of regents by Hals that he painted when he was in his eighties . This is the reason that after the move to the present location in 1913 , the museum took on the name of Frans Hals as these were considered the most prominent paintings of the collection at the time . The museum is still famous for group portraits by Hals , but since the group portraits from the military guilds were cleaned in the early 20th century , it is these which most visitors come to see today . Most of the objects and paintings can not be displayed for lack of space , and the museum rotates its collection through exhibitions at various locations in Haarlem , though works by some prominent painters cannot be lent out and remain in storage . Installed art from other Haarlem locations . Several stately rooms saved from torn-down Haarlem houses have been partially reconstructed and a collection of Haarlem silver saved from various local churches can be seen in the former regent rooms of the almshouse , which now seem much grander than they were originally . The windows have been decorated with art by anonymous Haarlem glass artists , most of which has been acquired through municipal demolitions work . Spread along the corridors are beautiful Dutch tiles from local salvage operations that have been installed along the walls , accompanied by 17th century furniture including clocks , chairs , and chests . The museum as an institution is only responsible for its collection , which is mostly oil paintings . Other applied art that has been installed is the responsibility of the municipal culture department , and the museum rents the premises from them . This is the reason that visitors are offered much more information about the paintings than about other aspects of the building , including the objects in the courtyard . List of painters . Between 1605 and 1635 over 100,000 paintings were produced in Haarlem . Not all of these have survived , and most have left town , but this does say something about the artistic climate in the city . At that time art ownership in the city was 25% , a record high . More art has survived up to today from that period in Haarlem than from any other Dutch city , thanks mostly to the Schilder-boeck published by Karel van Mander there in 1604 . The former curator Pieter Biesboer has created inventories of Haarlem art and worked on several catalogues for the museum , mostly based on the works created before 1800 . What follows is a list of the prominent painters through the centuries on display in the museum . - Jan van Scorel , 1495–1562 - Maarten van Heemskerck , 1498–1574 - Karel van Mander , 1548–1606 - Hendrick Goltzius , 1558–1617 - Cornelis Cornelisz van Haarlem , 1562–1638 - Floris Claesz van Dijck , 1575–1651 - Cornelis Claesz van Wieringen , 1580–1633 - Frans Hals , 1582–1666 - Dirck Hals , 1591–1656 - Willem Claeszoon Heda , 1594–1680 - Pieter Claesz , 1597–1660 - Johannes Cornelisz Verspronck , 1597–1662 - Salomon de Bray , 1597–1664 - Pieter Saenredam , 1597–1665 - Salomon van Ruysdael , 1600–1670 - Adriaen Brouwer , 1605–1638 - Judith Leyster , 1609–1660 - Jan Miense Molenaer , 1610–1668 - Bartholomeus van der Helst , 1613–1670 - Jan Steen , 1625–1679 - Jan de Bray , 1627–1697 - Jacob van Ruisdael , 1628–1682 - Gerrit Adriaenszoon Berckheyde , 1638–1698 |

] | easy | Where was Frans Hals Museum located from 1913 to 1961? | /wiki/Frans_Hals_Museum#P276#1 | Frans Hals Museum The Frans Hals Museum is a museum located in Haarlem , the Netherlands . The museum was established in 1862 . In 1950 , the museum was split in two locations when the collection of modern art was moved to the Museum De Hallen ( since 2018 called Hal ) . The main collection , including its famous 17th-century Frans Hals paintings , for which the museum is named , is located in the former Oude Mannenhuis on the Groot Heiligland . The museum was founded in 1862 in the newly renovated former Dominican church cloisters located in the back of the Haarlem city hall known as the Prinsenhof , and when it needed more space , it moved to the recently vacated location of the town orphanage in 1913 . The collection is based on the large number of paintings owned by the City of Haarlem , which includes over 100 artworks seized from Catholic churches in the 1580s after the Protestant Reformation , and Haarlem art rescued from demolished local buildings from the 15th century onwards . In 2018 the museum re-merged with Museum De Hallen to form a single museum called the Frans Hals Museum with two locations : Hof ( located on Groot Heiligland ) and Hal ( located on Grote Markt ) . History of the Old Mens Almshouse . The Haarlem Oude Mannenhuis was a hofje founded in 1609 . The residential rooms were situated around a courtyard in the style of contemporary Haarlem Hofjes . Each of the thirty little houses was inhabited by two men ; to be eligible to living there they had to be at least 60 years old , honest Haarlem residents , and single . They were required to bring their own household goods listed as a bed , a chair with a cushion , a tin chamberpot , three blankets , six good shirts and six nightcaps . They were locked in each night at eight oclock in the summer and at seven in the winter . The residents had to make a weekly collection with a poor-box , and a statue of a man holding this can be seen in the entrance hall of the museum . The old mens home was governed by five regents , whose portraits , painted by Frans Hals in 1664 , are on display . Though the mens home dates from 1609 , only the main hall is still mostly intact . During the intervening centuries the complex was renovated beyond recognition , most notably by the previous inhabitants , the Haarlem municipal orphanage which made use of the complex from 1810 until 1908 , when it moved to the Coen Cuserhof . During the French occupation , the old men still living in the hofje were moved a block away to the present-day Proveniershuis , when the art collections of the two institutions were merged . The art of both locations , as well as the art of several other former Haarlem institutions , is now in the Frans Hals museum collection . The most notable artworks from the Oude Mannenhuis are the two group portraits of regents and regentesses by Frans Hals . The inventory of the Proveniershuis was drawn up by Pieter Langendijk and though some of the paintings have since been reattributed , his list is largely intact . The impressive regents rooms have been rebuilt from other Haarlem locations . A room on the street side has a curious keystone above the door with masonic symbols denoting a masons society and the text Metsselaars Proef-Kamer 1648 12/29 . History of the collection .

Aside from several works by Hals and other artworks originally from the collections of many former guilds , monasteries and churches of Haarlem , the collection of over 750 works also includes objects relating to Haarlem that have been acquired by local donations and purchases . The museum is specialized in restoration and research on the works of Haarlem painters in the 17th century and of the painters of the 16th century who taught them to paint , most notably Jan van Scorel , Maerten van Heemskerck , Hendrick Goltzius and Cornelis van Haarlem . In the late 19th century the museum became something of a pilgrimage site for young impressionists , who were fascinated by the loose brushwork visible in the two group portraits of regents by Hals that he painted when he was in his eighties . This is the reason that after the move to the present location in 1913 , the museum took on the name of Frans Hals as these were considered the most prominent paintings of the collection at the time . The museum is still famous for group portraits by Hals , but since the group portraits from the military guilds were cleaned in the early 20th century , it is these which most visitors come to see today . Most of the objects and paintings can not be displayed for lack of space , and the museum rotates its collection through exhibitions at various locations in Haarlem , though works by some prominent painters cannot be lent out and remain in storage . Installed art from other Haarlem locations . Several stately rooms saved from torn-down Haarlem houses have been partially reconstructed and a collection of Haarlem silver saved from various local churches can be seen in the former regent rooms of the almshouse , which now seem much grander than they were originally . The windows have been decorated with art by anonymous Haarlem glass artists , most of which has been acquired through municipal demolitions work . Spread along the corridors are beautiful Dutch tiles from local salvage operations that have been installed along the walls , accompanied by 17th century furniture including clocks , chairs , and chests . The museum as an institution is only responsible for its collection , which is mostly oil paintings . Other applied art that has been installed is the responsibility of the municipal culture department , and the museum rents the premises from them . This is the reason that visitors are offered much more information about the paintings than about other aspects of the building , including the objects in the courtyard . List of painters . Between 1605 and 1635 over 100,000 paintings were produced in Haarlem . Not all of these have survived , and most have left town , but this does say something about the artistic climate in the city . At that time art ownership in the city was 25% , a record high . More art has survived up to today from that period in Haarlem than from any other Dutch city , thanks mostly to the Schilder-boeck published by Karel van Mander there in 1604 . The former curator Pieter Biesboer has created inventories of Haarlem art and worked on several catalogues for the museum , mostly based on the works created before 1800 . What follows is a list of the prominent painters through the centuries on display in the museum . - Jan van Scorel , 1495–1562 - Maarten van Heemskerck , 1498–1574 - Karel van Mander , 1548–1606 - Hendrick Goltzius , 1558–1617 - Cornelis Cornelisz van Haarlem , 1562–1638 - Floris Claesz van Dijck , 1575–1651 - Cornelis Claesz van Wieringen , 1580–1633 - Frans Hals , 1582–1666 - Dirck Hals , 1591–1656 - Willem Claeszoon Heda , 1594–1680 - Pieter Claesz , 1597–1660 - Johannes Cornelisz Verspronck , 1597–1662 - Salomon de Bray , 1597–1664 - Pieter Saenredam , 1597–1665 - Salomon van Ruysdael , 1600–1670 - Adriaen Brouwer , 1605–1638 - Judith Leyster , 1609–1660 - Jan Miense Molenaer , 1610–1668 - Bartholomeus van der Helst , 1613–1670 - Jan Steen , 1625–1679 - Jan de Bray , 1627–1697 - Jacob van Ruisdael , 1628–1682 - Gerrit Adriaenszoon Berckheyde , 1638–1698 |

] | easy | What was the nationality of Agnes Chow from Dec 1995 to Dec 1996? | /wiki/Agnes_Chow#P27#0 | Agnes Chow Agnes Chow Ting ( , born 3 December 1996 ) is a Hong Kong politician and social activist . She is a former member of the Standing Committee of Demosistō and former spokesperson of Scholarism . Her candidacy for the 2018 Hong Kong Island by-election , supported by the pro-democracy camp , was blocked by authorities , due to her partys advocacy of self-determination for Hong Kong . Personal life . Chow has described her upbringing as apolitical . Her social activism began around the age of 15 , after being inspired by a Facebook post with thousands of young people agitating for change . According to Chow , her Catholic upbringing had an influence on her participation in the social movements . In 2014 , Chow attended Hong Kong Baptist University , where she studied government and international relations . In 2018 , Chow deferred her final year of university studies in order to run in the Hong Kong Island by-election . Chow also renounced her British nationality , which was a qualification requirement mandated by the Basic Law . Chow is fluent in Cantonese , English , and Japanese . She taught herself Japanese by watching anime . Chow has made appearances in Japanese media , interviews , and news programmes . Media outlets in Japan have referred to her as the Goddess of Democracy ( 民主の女神 ) for her role in Hong Kongs pro-democracy movement . In February 2020 , Chow launched a YouTube channel , where she uploaded vlogging videos in Cantonese and Japanese . As of December 2020 , Chow had over 300,000 subscribers . Early activism . Chow first came to prominence in 2012 as the spokesperson of student activist group Scholarism . Then a student at Holy Family Canossian College , she protested against the implementation of the Moral and National Education scheme , which critics deemed brainwashing . During a demonstration , she met fellow activists Joshua Wong and Ivan Lam . The movement successfully drew thousands of protesters gathered in front of the Central Government Complex , which led to the government backing down in September 2012 . In 2014 , Chow collaborated with student organizations to advocate electoral reform in Hong Kong . Chow was a leader of the class boycott campaign against the restrictive electoral framework set by the National Peoples Congress Standing Committee for the 2017 Chief Executive election , which led to the massive Occupy protests dubbed the Umbrella Revolution . During the protests , citing heavy political pressure , Chow stepped away from politics , including resigning as spokesperson of Scholarism . Demosistō . In the wake of Occupy , a new generation of younger , more radical democrats gained prominence and were looking to move into participatory politics . In April 2016 , Chow co-founded political party Demosistō with Joshua Wong and Nathan Law , also student leaders in the Occupy protests . She was the first deputy secretary-general of the party , from 2016 to 2017 . She campaigned with party chairman Law in the 2016 Legislative Council election , in which the latter was elected as the youngest-ever member of the Legislative Council . In 2017 , she participated in the protest during the visit of Communist Party General Secretary Xi Jinping , in which they covered the Golden Bauhinia statue with banners . She was arrested along with Law and Demosistō secretary-general Wong . On 30 June 2020 , Chow , Law and Wong announced that they had disbanded Demosistō , which they co-founded . The announcement came just hours before Beijing passed the national security law in Hong Kong , which raised concerns of political persecution of activists . Legislative Council bid . After Law was ejected from the Legislative Council over the oath-taking controversy in July 2017 and sentenced to imprisonment in August of the same year , Chow became Demosistōs candidate in the 2018 Hong Kong Island by-election . To qualify for the election , she gave up her British citizenship . On 27 January 2018 , her candidacy was disqualified by the Electoral Affairs Commission on the basis of that she cannot possibly comply with the requirements of the relevant electoral laws , since advocating or promoting self-determination is contrary to the content of the declaration that the law requires a candidate to make to uphold the Basic Law and pledge allegiance to the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region . Michael Davis , a former law professor of the University of Hong Kong , warned that Chows disqualification was wrong and the government was on a slippery slope . Former university law dean Professor Johannes Chan Man-mun said there was no legal basis for such a move . Basic Law Committee member Albert Chen Hung-yee said election rules were not clear that returning officers had the power to disqualify candidates based on their political views . Chief Executive Carrie Lam asserted that any suggestion of Hong Kong independence , self-determination , independence as a choice or self-autonomy is not in line with Basic Law requirements and deviates from the important principle of one country two systems . Had Chow been elected , she would have been Hong Kongs youngest-ever lawmaker , ahead of her colleague Nathan Law . After Chows disqualification , Demosistō endorsed pro-democracy candidate Au Nok-hin , who won the by-election . On 2 September 2019 , Chow succeeded in her appeal after the judge ruled that she had insufficient opportunity to respond to the grounds for disqualification . Since her ban was overturned by the Hong Kong Court , Au lost his Legislative Council seat as the court claimed he was not duly elected . After the ruling , Chow described the result as a Pyrrhic victory . Arrests and imprisonment . 21 June Wan Chai case . Chow was arrested on 30 August 2019 at her Tai Po home for allegedly participating in , and inciting , an unauthorised assembly at Wan Chai Hong Kong Police Headquarters on 21 June 2019 . On the same day , many high-profile Hong Kong pro-democracy figures were arrested , including Joshua Wong , Au Nok-hin , Andy Chan , and Jeremy Tam . She was freed the same day on bail , but her smartphone , like those of her fellow arrestees , was confiscated by police . Amnesty International called the arrests an outrageous assault on free expression . Chow pleaded guilty to the charges on 6 July 2020 , telling the media she was mentally prepared to go to prison . She was formally convicted on 5 August 2020 . Agnes Chow , Ivan Lam and Joshua Wong were put in custody until a trial scheduled on 2 December 2020 , after a pre-trial hearing in the West Kowloon District court , that was having place on 23 November 2020 , where they pleaded guilty regarding the events of a demonstration of June 2019 outside a Hong Kong police headquarters , where , that time of June 2019 , thousands of protesters had demanded investigation of use of force by the police . She was remanded at Tai Lam Centre for Women in Tuen Mun until the trial . On 2 December 2020 , Agnes Chow was sentenced to 10 months in jail ( Joshua Wong — 13.5 months , Ivan Lam — 7 months ) . A judge in the trial , West Kowloon Magistrate Wong Sze-lai , pronounced accusation : The defendants called on protesters to besiege the headquarters and chanted slogans that undermine the police force . Amnesty International condemned the sentencing , saying that the Chinese authorities send a warning to anyone who dares to openly criticise the government that they could be next . She was initially imprisoned at the medium-security Lo Wu Correctional Institution . On 31 December 2020 , local media reported that Chow had been transferred to the maximum-security Tai Lam Centre for Women ( where she was previously remanded ) , after she was classified as a Category A prisoner . International responses to the imprisonment . United States . US House of Representative Speaker Nancy Pelosi issued a statement calling China’s brutal sentencing of these young champions of democracy in Hong Kong as appalling . Pelosi further called on the world to denounce this unjust sentencing and China’s widespread assault on Hong Kongers.” US Senator Marsha Blackburn also called the sentence destroying any semblance of autonomy in Hong Kong . United Kingdom . UK Foreign Minister Dominic Raab issued a statement urging Hong Kong and Beijing authorities to bring an end to their campaign to stifle opposition in response to the prison sentences of the three pro-democracy activists . Japan . Japans government spokesperson Katsunobu Kato in a regular news conference expressed Japans increasingly grave concerns about the recent Hong Kong situation such as sentences against three including Agnes Chow . Taiwan . The Overseas Community Affairs Council ( OCAC ) issued a statement referencing to the Mainland Affairs Council ( MAC ) that the decision to imprison Joshua Wong , Agnes Chow , and Ivan Lam represents a failure by the Hong Kong government to protect the peoples political rights and freedom of speech . Germany . Maria Adebahr , a Germany’s foreign ministry spokesperson , stated that the prison terms are “another building block in a series of worrisome developments that we have seen in connection with human and civil rights in Hong Kong during the last year.” National Security Law case .

] | easy | Where was Statue of Queen Victoria, Sydney located from Feb 1908 to 1948? | /wiki/Statue_of_Queen_Victoria,_Sydney#P276#0 | Statue of Queen Victoria , Sydney The Statue of Queen Victoria , currently in Sydney , New South Wales , Australia , was made by John Hughes in 1908 and was originally located in Dublin . Made of bronze , it is situated on the corner of Druitt and George Street in front of the Queen Victoria Building . It was the last royal statue to have been erected in Ireland . Sculpture . The Queen toured Ireland in April 1900 , prompting the Royal Dublin Society to propose a national monument to her . Her death nine months later spurred a second burst of enthusiasm . John Hughes , instructor in Modelling at the Dublin Metropolitan School of Art , was commissioned to create the statue and moved his studio to Paris to cast the work . It was his most important commission to date . Almost a decade later , it was unveiled in Dublin , Ireland , in the enclosed courtyard of Leinster House on 17 February 1908 . At a ceremony with 1000 troops on parade , the Lord Lieutenant declared we are assembled here to dedicate this noble work of art to the perpetual commemoration of a great personality and a great life . The statue shows an effort to portray Victoria Regina as the Irish Queen rather than the British Sovereign . She is seated in a low chair rather than an elaborate throne , allowing the artist to contain the figure within a sphere rather than as a towering pillar . ( Other seated examples place her on a high throne. ) And she wears a simple coronet rather than the royal or imperial crown...Moreover , the statue portrayed her as the Sovereign Head of the Most Illustrious Order of St Patrick , Irelands order of chivalry dating from 1783 . The star on her left breast , and the pendant badge , feature shamrocks , crowned harps , and St Patricks Cross . The St Patrick reference probably backfired . It confirmed Irelands colonial subordination . Round her neck the chain alternates the red and white roses of England . The statue sat atop a portland stone column , also designed by Hughes , with three sculptural groups to be placed below – Fame , Hibernia at Peace and Hibernia at War . This last group was also known as Erin and the Dying Soldier and referred to the loyalty demonstrated by Irish soldiers in the Boer War . Location . Ireland . In 1922 , 14 years after the statues installation , Leinster House had become the seat of the Irish parliament , the Oireachtas , and nationalistic sentiment disapproved of having a British queen celebrated in such a location . The statue had by now been given the nickname The auld bitch by Irish writer James Joyce . In August 1929 The Irish Times reported that discussions were under way to remove the statue “on the basis that its continued presence there is repugnant to national feeling , and that , from an artistic point of view , it disfigures the architectural beauty of the parliamentary buildings.” It was removed from its original location in July 1948 and replaced with a carpark . It was transported by lorry to the Royal Hospital Kilmainham and , along with the associated three sculptural groups , was placed in a courtyard and left , developing a patina . The hospital had also been a proposed site for the parliament , and was used as a storage location for property belonging to the National Museum of Ireland . It is now the Irish Museum of Modern Art . Attempts to send the sculpture to London , Ontario did not succeed as neither the Canadian nor Irish governments wished to pay the cost of transport . In February 1980 the statue was transferred to a yard behind a disused childrens reformatory at Daingean , County Offaly . The associated sculptures from the base of the statue are currently in the collection of Dublin Castle . Australia . In the mid-1980s , the iconic Queen Victoria Building in central Sydney was undergoing major renovations after decades of disuse , and appropriate public art was being sought for the entrance . Neil Glasser , Director of Promotions for the company undertaking the renovations ( Singapores Ipoh Gardens Ltd ) , travelled to several former British colonies in the hope of finding a statue . After a considerable amount of sleuthing , the statue , sitting in long grass behind the reformatory , was rediscovered and proposed to be moved to Australia . In order to obtain approval , Glasser contacted John Teahan , the Director of the National Museum of Ireland , and Sydneys Lord Mayor contacted the Irish Ambassador in Canberra . In August 1986 Fine Gael Taoiseach , Garret FitzGerald , authorised that the statue be given to Australia on loan until recalled . Subsequently , declassified cabinet papers showed that the plan was opposed by the then finance minister John Bruton ( later to be Taoiseach ) , as well as Teahan , on the basis that it represented the work of an Irish artist and ...representative of one of the many traditions of Irish history .

] | easy | Who was the head coach of the team ACS Poli Timișoara from Mar 2013 to Mar 2014? | /wiki/ACS_Poli_Timișoara#P286#0 | ACS Poli Timișoara Asociația Club Sportiv Poli Timișoara ( ) , commonly known as Poli Timișoara , is a Romanian professional football club based in Timișoara , Timiș County , currently playing in the Liga III . The club is credited as the official record holder and legal successor of the original club founded in 1921 , FC Politehnica Timișoara , which went bankrupt and was dissolved , following the 2011–12 season . It is co-owned by the City Council and the County Council and has the backing of the Politehnica University of Timișoara , all three being active members in the legal entity running the club . The team has won two Romanian Cups and was twice a runner-up in Liga I . It is ranked 5th in the Liga I All-Time Table , with 48 seasons played . Poli Timişoara traditionally plays in white and purple kits , although it has used variations of black and white in the past . The clubs current home ground is Electrica stadium , although most of its history it played on Dan Păltinișanu Stadium . History . Beginnings of Politehnica Timișoara ( 1921–1945 ) . The club was founded in 1921 by the Polytechnic University of Timișoara under the name Societatea Sportiva Politehnica . Its initial aim was to provide an opportunity for university students to work on their fitness within a competitive environment . The logistics of the sport proved problematic , as there were limited financial means available . Thanks to contributions gathered from university professors and employees , the club bought their first football kits , with white-black vertical stripes , and rented the Patria football stadium . It was not until 1928 that the club developed its own training grounds , Politehnica , which were built by volunteers . Players for the team were chosen on merit from the pool of Timișoara students and high-schoolers , who trained after school hours during the week and played football on weekends . The football landscape in the city was already developed at that time , with CAT , RGMT and Chinezul dominating locally . After spending three years in the District Championships II , Politehnica won promotion to the first tier in 1924 , by defeating Kadima Timișoara . The club became established in the years to come , even finishing 2nd in the 1926–27 District Championships I , when Politehnica lost out to Chinezul by a single point , who were one of Romanias most famous football names at the time . However , the competitive level could not be easily sustained by a university club , as it was subject to the inflow and outflow of players conditioned by their student status . After a decline towards the end of the decade , the low-point came at the beginning of the 1930s , between 1931 and 1933 , when due to insufficient material resources , Politehnica had to suspend its football activities . It reappeared in 1934 but remained a modest club , with mid-table classifications in the District Championships I , as well as the Divizia C and Divizia B , once they were founded . As war beckoned , the national championships were suspended and all football activities reduced to friendly matches and the Cupa Eroilor ( 1943–44 ) . Until the second World War , Politehnica was far from the number one Timișoara football club . Chinezul and then Ripensia won multiple Romanian championship , whereas the students club failed to achieve similar results . It did , however , propel several players to the Romania national football team , with the likes of Sfera , Ignuţa , Deheleanu , Chiroiu , Pop , Protopopescu and Sepi all wearing the national jerseys . Establishment as one of the citys most representative clubs ( 1945–1991 ) . With Romania under a communist regime , these decades were a challenge for Politehnica , as the club represented an educational institution of the highest tier . The numerous promotions and relegations between the first two national leagues were contrasted by the two Romanian cups won and the clubs first forays into international football . Politehnica was first promoted to Romanian top league , the Divizia A , in 1948 , and played under the name CSU Timișoara in the first season . Shortly thereafter ( from 1950 ) , the club was renamed Știința Timișoara , in line with the desired nomenclature of the times . In spite of suffering its first relegation in 1951 , the decade was an unusually consistent one , with the club returning swiftly to the top division and staying there until the season 1959 . The high-point of the Ştiinţa years was winning the 1957–58 Romanian Cup , a 1–0 victory against Progresul București , with the club finishing joint first in the league in the same season , but losing out on goal difference . The next decade saw the club struggle to remain in the first league , particularly towards the end of the 60s . However , it was then that the clubs modern identity started taking shape . Firstly , in 1963 , the largest stadium in Timişoara was completed . It was initially named 1 Mai , honoring the socialist workers day , before being renamed several times in the 90s and finally settling on Stadionul Dan Păltinişanu . Secondly , the club reverted to its previous name of Politehnica Timișoara in 1966 and went to play during the next five decades on the then-erected stadium . When Politehnica returned to the first league in 1973 , after struggling to win promotion for several years , it went on to celebrate one of its best streaks in the top flight . With the likes of Emeric Dembrovschi and Dan Păltinişanu in the team , who both played for Romania and went on to become some of the most capped players in the clubs history , and under the management of prof . Ion V . Ionescu , Politehnica lost that seasons cup final . After managing a third place in the league with manager Angelo Niculescu in 1978 , Politehnica took part in a continental competition for the first time . It was the 1978–79 UEFA Cup , where Poli defeated MTK Budapest ( 2–0 and 1–2 ) , before going down to Honved Budapest ( 2–0 and 0–4 ) in the second round . The club remained steady and managed to win its second cup trophy the following season , by beating Steaua București with 2–1 , after extra time . Politehnica thereby qualified for the UEFA Cup Winners Cup , where it managed to eliminate Celtic Glasgow ( 1–0 and 1–2 ) , before being defeated by West Ham United ( 1–0 and 0–4 ) in second leg . In spite of losing another Romanian Cup final in 1981 , the club qualified once more for the UEFA Cup Winners Cup , where they lost to Leipzig 2–5 on aggregate . After being relegated in 1983 , Politehnica yo-yo-ed between Divizia A and the Divizia B , with promotions in 1984 , 1987 , 1989 and relegations in 1986 and 1988 . Fans ironically called this period as the ABBA years . As the Romanian Revolution , which started in Timișoara , signalled the end of an era , Politehnica managed to grab its most impressive result yet in European competitions , by eliminating Atlético Madrid ( 2–0 and 0–1 ) in the 1990–91 UEFA Cup . Privatization and detachment from the Polytechnic University ( 1991–2001 ) . By state order , all public institutions were forced to relinquish and reorganize any owned sports clubs in 1991 , to effectively privatize them . As a result , alongside the newly organized football club appeared a non-profit association , AFC Politehnica Timișoara . The latter , consisting of previous club players and staff , was mandated with owning and protecting the club records and intellectual property . The clubs swan song near the top of Romanian football for the next decade was to be the 1991–92 season . Poli finished 5th and also reached the Romanian Cup final , only to lose it on penalties against Steaua București . The consequent participation in the 1992–93 UEFA Cup , saw the club draw against Real Madrid ( 1–1 in Timișoara ) , before being defeated in the return leg ( 0–4 ) . Politehnica lost several key players in the years after the forced privatization , which slowly lead to the teams downfall . In fewer than twenty four months from their draw against Real , the club was relegated to the Divizia B in 1994 . Despite a fast return to the first league in 1995 , Poli failed to consolidate their position and were soon relegated once more after the 1996–97 season . An inability to rebound lead to mounting financial pressures . The club was temporarily owned by a Timișoara based businessman between 1998 and 2000 , before the local authorities accepted the bid of an Italian investor , Claudio Zambon , to take over Politehnica . Despite an initial financial outlay , Poli finished 15th and was relegated to the third league , Divizia C , where it had last played in 1938 . To avoid such an outcome , Zambon and the local authorities struck a deal with a league two club , Dacia Pitești , and purchased their license to participate in the Divizia B . After failing to earn promotion to top flight , the 2001–02 season posed an insurmountable challenge for Politehnica . Zambons departure following disagreements with the local authorities meant the club found itself in dire financial straits . Forced to use mostly youth players , Politehnica finished the season dead last , with one win and four draws to its name , but negative eight points in the standings , due to unpaid debts . Once again the club was bound to be relegated to the third division . Identity crisis , glory years and downfall ( 2002–2012 ) . In 2002 , AEK Bucharest were promoted to Liga I , Romanian footballs top division , for the first time , whereupon Anton Doboș , the clubs owner , moved it to Timișoara . It was renamed Politehnica AEK Timișoara after merging with CSU Politehnica , a club owned and run by the Politehnica University , and received the full support of local authorities and white-purple fans . After a rocky first season , which required a spectacular relegation play-off against Gloria Buzău to avoid demotion , Poli AEK consolidated during the next season , finishing on a safe mid-table position . Moreover , starting with the 2004–05 season , the team changed its name to FCU Politehnica Timișoara , trying to reestablish its former identity . Financially difficulties looming , Politehnica changed ownership once more . Former president Anton Doboș stayed on at the club for another year in a new position , while Balkan Petroleum Ltd. , owned by Marian Iancu , took full charge . Significant investments in the transfer market transformed the club overnight , as it received the nickname EuroPoli for its newly found ambitions to reach the top of Romanian football . During the takeover by Marian Iancu , a dispute regarding the proprietary rights for the club name , colors and records arose . After prolonged litigation , Politehnica was forced to change its name to FC Timișoara , following a decision by the Court of Arbitration for Sport . It was deemed that the colors and records dating before 2002 were lost in favor of former Politehnica Timișoara owner , Claudio Zambon . The Italian had struck a deal with AFC Politehnica , the non-profit association which owned said proprietary items , when he left Timișoara during the 2001–02 season . Results on the pitch improved immediately after the takeover , but a leap to the Liga 1 podium proved elusive until 2008–09 , when Politehnica finished runner-up , a feat repeated two seasons later . The club did , however , rejoin European football the season before that by qualifying for the UEFA Cup – sixteen years after its last appearance against Atletico Madrid . More European appearances followed , culminating with the qualification for the 3rd preliminary round of the 2009–10 UEFA Champions League . The team defeated the reigning UEFA Cup champions Shakhtar Donetsk , but were eliminated from the competition during the Playoff Round , which still meant the club would take part in the 2009–10 UEFA Europa League group stage . In November 2010 , the Romanian Court of Appeal returned Politehnicas name , colors and records to FC Timișoara . However , at the end of the season , despite finishing second in the Liga I standings , the club was relegated to Liga II after failing to meet the licence requirements to play in the first division . Under the name of Politehnica Timişoara , they took part in the 2011–12 Liga II season and finished first , but were again denied the licence to play in Liga I . Consequently , the club filed for bankruptcy and was dissolved in September 2012 . Rebirth as ACS Poli Timișoara and recent years ( 2012–present ) . In the summer of 2012 , ACS Recaș , a club just promoted to the Liga II , was moved to Timișoara and renamed ACS Poli Timișoara after the dissolution of FC Politehnica Timișoara . The new club is co-owned by the City Council and the County Council and has the backing of the Politehnica University of Timișoara , all three being active members in the legal entity running the club . However , the ultras supporters rejected the move and decided to support an alternative project in the lower leagues , ASU Politehnica Timişoara . Valentin Velcea continued as head coach , while the roster consisted mostly of the core ACS Recaș players and several players from FC Politehnica . At its conception , the club , established as an NGO , was primarily financed by the local authorities , as Timișoara mayor Nicolae Robu insisted control should not be forfeited to private investors . After initially playing in black/white/yellow kits , in order to avoid legal complications while the court ruled over the rightful owner following the bankruptcy of FC Politehnica , the club returned to its historic white-purple colors starting with the 2015–2016 season . As of February 2016 , ACS Poli Timişoara is the sole and full owner of all the rights pertaining to and deriving from the Politehnica Timișoara brand and records , following a court decision which nullified the original agreement between the founding club and record holders , and Marian Iancus insolvent club . From a competitive perspective , the club failed to equal the achievements of the Marian Iancu era . A yo-yo-ing between the first two leagues , reminiscent of the Politehnicas travails in the 1980s , ensued . The situation was amplified by the fact that the financing received from the local authorities was deemed illegal in the summer of 2015 , which left the club without its main financial benefactor . The highlight season for the new Poli came about in 2016–2017 , when the club started with a 14 points penalty , as it failed to reach a points minimum the previous year and recorded unpaid debts . In spite of this , Poli , under the management of Ionuţ Popa , rallied to reach the relegation play-off in the dying minutes of the season and defeated rivals UTA Arad 5–2 on aggregate . Moreover , the club reached the first national cup final , finishing runner-up in the Cupa Ligii , while also reaching the semi-finals of the Romanian Cup . The following season was another struggle and Poli suffered a reversal of fortunes as they were relegated by courtesy of a goal scored late in the last matchday . With financial pressures mounting , the club declared insolvency during the 2018–2019 Liga 2 season and struggled to stay competitive , becoming involved in another fight to avoid relegation . In order to mitigate costs , it was also forced to relocate from the Dan Păltinişanu stadium to the Electrica stadium . Supporters and Rivalries . Historically , Poli has been the most prominent football club in Timișoara after 1945 , playing consistently in either the first or the second tier of Romanian football . Local rivalries with CFR Timișoara and UM Timișoara were relevant until the early 2000s . Afterwards , the former was relegated to a semi-professional status in the lower leagues and the latter was dissolved in 2008 . Nationally , there were strong rivalries with UTA Arad and Dinamo București . The matches against UTA were labeled as the West Derby , due to the proximity of Timișoara and Arad . Matches against CFR Cluj , FCSB , and Universitatea Craiova also drew large crowds . After the club reincarnated as ACS Poli in 2012 , the core factions of the ultras movement decided to support an alternate club in the lower leagues , ASU Politehnica Timișoara . ACS Poli struggled to fill the void created by their departure , with smaller fan factions forming to support the club . Although top-bill matches with historic rivals still attract fans to the stadium , attendances have dropped compared to the averages attained in the 2000s . Honours .

Under the name of Politehnica Timişoara , they took part in the 2011–12 Liga II season and finished first , but were again denied the licence to play in Liga I . Consequently , the club filed for bankruptcy and was dissolved in September 2012 . Rebirth as ACS Poli Timișoara and recent years ( 2012–present ) . In the summer of 2012 , ACS Recaș , a club just promoted to the Liga II , was moved to Timișoara and renamed ACS Poli Timișoara after the dissolution of FC Politehnica Timișoara . The new club is co-owned by the City Council and the County Council and has the backing of the Politehnica University of Timișoara , all three being active members in the legal entity running the club . However , the ultras supporters rejected the move and decided to support an alternative project in the lower leagues , ASU Politehnica Timişoara . Valentin Velcea continued as head coach , while the roster consisted mostly of the core ACS Recaș players and several players from FC Politehnica . At its conception , the club , established as an NGO , was primarily financed by the local authorities , as Timișoara mayor Nicolae Robu insisted control should not be forfeited to private investors . After initially playing in black/white/yellow kits , in order to avoid legal complications while the court ruled over the rightful owner following the bankruptcy of FC Politehnica , the club returned to its historic white-purple colors starting with the 2015–2016 season . As of February 2016 , ACS Poli Timişoara is the sole and full owner of all the rights pertaining to and deriving from the Politehnica Timișoara brand and records , following a court decision which nullified the original agreement between the founding club and record holders , and Marian Iancus insolvent club . From a competitive perspective , the club failed to equal the achievements of the Marian Iancu era . A yo-yo-ing between the first two leagues , reminiscent of the Politehnicas travails in the 1980s , ensued . The situation was amplified by the fact that the financing received from the local authorities was deemed illegal in the summer of 2015 , which left the club without its main financial benefactor . The highlight season for the new Poli came about in 2016–2017 , when the club started with a 14 points penalty , as it failed to reach a points minimum the previous year and recorded unpaid debts . In spite of this , Poli , under the management of Ionuţ Popa , rallied to reach the relegation play-off in the dying minutes of the season and defeated rivals UTA Arad 5–2 on aggregate . Moreover , the club reached the first national cup final , finishing runner-up in the Cupa Ligii , while also reaching the semi-finals of the Romanian Cup . The following season was another struggle and Poli suffered a reversal of fortunes as they were relegated by courtesy of a goal scored late in the last matchday . With financial pressures mounting , the club declared insolvency during the 2018–2019 Liga 2 season and struggled to stay competitive , becoming involved in another fight to avoid relegation . In order to mitigate costs , it was also forced to relocate from the Dan Păltinişanu stadium to the Electrica stadium . Supporters and Rivalries . Historically , Poli has been the most prominent football club in Timișoara after 1945 , playing consistently in either the first or the second tier of Romanian football . Local rivalries with CFR Timișoara and UM Timișoara were relevant until the early 2000s . Afterwards , the former was relegated to a semi-professional status in the lower leagues and the latter was dissolved in 2008 . Nationally , there were strong rivalries with UTA Arad and Dinamo București . The matches against UTA were labeled as the West Derby , due to the proximity of Timișoara and Arad . Matches against CFR Cluj , FCSB , and Universitatea Craiova also drew large crowds . After the club reincarnated as ACS Poli in 2012 , the core factions of the ultras movement decided to support an alternate club in the lower leagues , ASU Politehnica Timișoara . ACS Poli struggled to fill the void created by their departure , with smaller fan factions forming to support the club . Although top-bill matches with historic rivals still attract fans to the stadium , attendances have dropped compared to the averages attained in the 2000s . Honours .

"Florin Marin"
] | easy | Who was the head coach of the team ACS Poli Timișoara from Aug 2015 to Mar 2016? | /wiki/ACS_Poli_Timișoara#P286#2 | ACS Poli Timișoara Asociația Club Sportiv Poli Timișoara ( ) , commonly known as Poli Timișoara , is a Romanian professional football club based in Timișoara , Timiș County , currently playing in the Liga III . The club is credited as the official record holder and legal successor of the original club founded in 1921 , FC Politehnica Timișoara , which went bankrupt and was dissolved , following the 2011–12 season . It is co-owned by the City Council and the County Council and has the backing of the Politehnica University of Timișoara , all three being active members in the legal entity running the club . The team has won two Romanian Cups and was twice a runner-up in Liga I . It is ranked 5th in the Liga I All-Time Table , with 48 seasons played . Poli Timişoara traditionally plays in white and purple kits , although it has used variations of black and white in the past . The clubs current home ground is Electrica stadium , although most of its history it played on Dan Păltinișanu Stadium . History . Beginnings of Politehnica Timișoara ( 1921–1945 ) . The club was founded in 1921 by the Polytechnic University of Timișoara under the name Societatea Sportiva Politehnica . Its initial aim was to provide an opportunity for university students to work on their fitness within a competitive environment . The logistics of the sport proved problematic , as there were limited financial means available . Thanks to contributions gathered from university professors and employees , the club bought their first football kits , with white-black vertical stripes , and rented the Patria football stadium . It was not until 1928 that the club developed its own training grounds , Politehnica , which were built by volunteers . Players for the team were chosen on merit from the pool of Timișoara students and high-schoolers , who trained after school hours during the week and played football on weekends . The football landscape in the city was already developed at that time , with CAT , RGMT and Chinezul dominating locally . After spending three years in the District Championships II , Politehnica won promotion to the first tier in 1924 , by defeating Kadima Timișoara . The club became established in the years to come , even finishing 2nd in the 1926–27 District Championships I , when Politehnica lost out to Chinezul by a single point , who were one of Romanias most famous football names at the time . However , the competitive level could not be easily sustained by a university club , as it was subject to the inflow and outflow of players conditioned by their student status . After a decline towards the end of the decade , the low-point came at the beginning of the 1930s , between 1931 and 1933 , when due to insufficient material resources , Politehnica had to suspend its football activities . It reappeared in 1934 but remained a modest club , with mid-table classifications in the District Championships I , as well as the Divizia C and Divizia B , once they were founded . As war beckoned , the national championships were suspended and all football activities reduced to friendly matches and the Cupa Eroilor ( 1943–44 ) . Until the second World War , Politehnica was far from the number one Timișoara football club . Chinezul and then Ripensia won multiple Romanian championship , whereas the students club failed to achieve similar results . It did , however , propel several players to the Romania national football team , with the likes of Sfera , Ignuţa , Deheleanu , Chiroiu , Pop , Protopopescu and Sepi all wearing the national jerseys . Establishment as one of the citys most representative clubs ( 1945–1991 ) . With Romania under a communist regime , these decades were a challenge for Politehnica , as the club represented an educational institution of the highest tier . The numerous promotions and relegations between the first two national leagues were contrasted by the two Romanian cups won and the clubs first forays into international football . Politehnica was first promoted to Romanian top league , the Divizia A , in 1948 , and played under the name CSU Timișoara in the first season . Shortly thereafter ( from 1950 ) , the club was renamed Știința Timișoara , in line with the desired nomenclature of the times . In spite of suffering its first relegation in 1951 , the decade was an unusually consistent one , with the club returning swiftly to the top division and staying there until the season 1959 . The high-point of the Ştiinţa years was winning the 1957–58 Romanian Cup , a 1–0 victory against Progresul București , with the club finishing joint first in the league in the same season , but losing out on goal difference . The next decade saw the club struggle to remain in the first league , particularly towards the end of the 60s . However , it was then that the clubs modern identity started taking shape . Firstly , in 1963 , the largest stadium in Timişoara was completed . It was initially named 1 Mai , honoring the socialist workers day , before being renamed several times in the 90s and finally settling on Stadionul Dan Păltinişanu . Secondly , the club reverted to its previous name of Politehnica Timișoara in 1966 and went to play during the next five decades on the then-erected stadium . When Politehnica returned to the first league in 1973 , after struggling to win promotion for several years , it went on to celebrate one of its best streaks in the top flight . With the likes of Emeric Dembrovschi and Dan Păltinişanu in the team , who both played for Romania and went on to become some of the most capped players in the clubs history , and under the management of prof . Ion V . Ionescu , Politehnica lost that seasons cup final . After managing a third place in the league with manager Angelo Niculescu in 1978 , Politehnica took part in a continental competition for the first time . It was the 1978–79 UEFA Cup , where Poli defeated MTK Budapest ( 2–0 and 1–2 ) , before going down to Honved Budapest ( 2–0 and 0–4 ) in the second round . The club remained steady and managed to win its second cup trophy the following season , by beating Steaua București with 2–1 , after extra time . Politehnica thereby qualified for the UEFA Cup Winners Cup , where it managed to eliminate Celtic Glasgow ( 1–0 and 1–2 ) , before being defeated by West Ham United ( 1–0 and 0–4 ) in second leg . In spite of losing another Romanian Cup final in 1981 , the club qualified once more for the UEFA Cup Winners Cup , where they lost to Leipzig 2–5 on aggregate . After being relegated in 1983 , Politehnica yo-yo-ed between Divizia A and the Divizia B , with promotions in 1984 , 1987 , 1989 and relegations in 1986 and 1988 . Fans ironically called this period as the ABBA years . As the Romanian Revolution , which started in Timișoara , signalled the end of an era , Politehnica managed to grab its most impressive result yet in European competitions , by eliminating Atlético Madrid ( 2–0 and 0–1 ) in the 1990–91 UEFA Cup . Privatization and detachment from the Polytechnic University ( 1991–2001 ) . By state order , all public institutions were forced to relinquish and reorganize any owned sports clubs in 1991 , to effectively privatize them . As a result , alongside the newly organized football club appeared a non-profit association , AFC Politehnica Timișoara . The latter , consisting of previous club players and staff , was mandated with owning and protecting the club records and intellectual property . The clubs swan song near the top of Romanian football for the next decade was to be the 1991–92 season . Poli finished 5th and also reached the Romanian Cup final , only to lose it on penalties against Steaua București . The consequent participation in the 1992–93 UEFA Cup , saw the club draw against Real Madrid ( 1–1 in Timișoara ) , before being defeated in the return leg ( 0–4 ) . Politehnica lost several key players in the years after the forced privatization , which slowly lead to the teams downfall . In fewer than twenty four months from their draw against Real , the club was relegated to the Divizia B in 1994 . Despite a fast return to the first league in 1995 , Poli failed to consolidate their position and were soon relegated once more after the 1996–97 season . An inability to rebound lead to mounting financial pressures . The club was temporarily owned by a Timișoara based businessman between 1998 and 2000 , before the local authorities accepted the bid of an Italian investor , Claudio Zambon , to take over Politehnica . Despite an initial financial outlay , Poli finished 15th and was relegated to the third league , Divizia C , where it had last played in 1938 . To avoid such an outcome , Zambon and the local authorities struck a deal with a league two club , Dacia Pitești , and purchased their license to participate in the Divizia B . After failing to earn promotion to top flight , the 2001–02 season posed an insurmountable challenge for Politehnica . Zambons departure following disagreements with the local authorities meant the club found itself in dire financial straits . Forced to use mostly youth players , Politehnica finished the season dead last , with one win and four draws to its name , but negative eight points in the standings , due to unpaid debts . Once again the club was bound to be relegated to the third division . Identity crisis , glory years and downfall ( 2002–2012 ) . In 2002 , AEK Bucharest were promoted to Liga I , Romanian footballs top division , for the first time , whereupon Anton Doboș , the clubs owner , moved it to Timișoara . It was renamed Politehnica AEK Timișoara after merging with CSU Politehnica , a club owned and run by the Politehnica University , and received the full support of local authorities and white-purple fans . After a rocky first season , which required a spectacular relegation play-off against Gloria Buzău to avoid demotion , Poli AEK consolidated during the next season , finishing on a safe mid-table position . Moreover , starting with the 2004–05 season , the team changed its name to FCU Politehnica Timișoara , trying to reestablish its former identity . Financially difficulties looming , Politehnica changed ownership once more . Former president Anton Doboș stayed on at the club for another year in a new position , while Balkan Petroleum Ltd. , owned by Marian Iancu , took full charge . Significant investments in the transfer market transformed the club overnight , as it received the nickname EuroPoli for its newly found ambitions to reach the top of Romanian football . During the takeover by Marian Iancu , a dispute regarding the proprietary rights for the club name , colors and records arose . After prolonged litigation , Politehnica was forced to change its name to FC Timișoara , following a decision by the Court of Arbitration for Sport . It was deemed that the colors and records dating before 2002 were lost in favor of former Politehnica Timișoara owner , Claudio Zambon . The Italian had struck a deal with AFC Politehnica , the non-profit association which owned said proprietary items , when he left Timișoara during the 2001–02 season . Results on the pitch improved immediately after the takeover , but a leap to the Liga 1 podium proved elusive until 2008–09 , when Politehnica finished runner-up , a feat repeated two seasons later . The club did , however , rejoin European football the season before that by qualifying for the UEFA Cup – sixteen years after its last appearance against Atletico Madrid . More European appearances followed , culminating with the qualification for the 3rd preliminary round of the 2009–10 UEFA Champions League . The team defeated the reigning UEFA Cup champions Shakhtar Donetsk , but were eliminated from the competition during the Playoff Round , which still meant the club would take part in the 2009–10 UEFA Europa League group stage . In November 2010 , the Romanian Court of Appeal returned Politehnicas name , colors and records to FC Timișoara . However , at the end of the season , despite finishing second in the Liga I standings , the club was relegated to Liga II after failing to meet the licence requirements to play in the first division . Under the name of Politehnica Timişoara , they took part in the 2011–12 Liga II season and finished first , but were again denied the licence to play in Liga I . Consequently , the club filed for bankruptcy and was dissolved in September 2012 . Rebirth as ACS Poli Timișoara and recent years ( 2012–present ) .

As the Romanian Revolution , which started in Timișoara , signalled the end of an era , Politehnica managed to grab its most impressive result yet in European competitions , by eliminating Atlético Madrid ( 2–0 and 0–1 ) in the 1990–91 UEFA Cup . Privatization and detachment from the Polytechnic University ( 1991–2001 ) . By state order , all public institutions were forced to relinquish and reorganize any owned sports clubs in 1991 , to effectively privatize them . As a result , alongside the newly organized football club appeared a non-profit association , AFC Politehnica Timișoara . The latter , consisting of previous club players and staff , was mandated with owning and protecting the club records and intellectual property . The clubs swan song near the top of Romanian football for the next decade was to be the 1991–92 season . Poli finished 5th and also reached the Romanian Cup final , only to lose it on penalties against Steaua București . The consequent participation in the 1992–93 UEFA Cup , saw the club draw against Real Madrid ( 1–1 in Timișoara ) , before being defeated in the return leg ( 0–4 ) . Politehnica lost several key players in the years after the forced privatization , which slowly lead to the teams downfall . In fewer than twenty four months from their draw against Real , the club was relegated to the Divizia B in 1994 . Despite a fast return to the first league in 1995 , Poli failed to consolidate their position and were soon relegated once more after the 1996–97 season . An inability to rebound lead to mounting financial pressures . The club was temporarily owned by a Timișoara based businessman between 1998 and 2000 , before the local authorities accepted the bid of an Italian investor , Claudio Zambon , to take over Politehnica . Despite an initial financial outlay , Poli finished 15th and was relegated to the third league , Divizia C , where it had last played in 1938 . To avoid such an outcome , Zambon and the local authorities struck a deal with a league two club , Dacia Pitești , and purchased their license to participate in the Divizia B . After failing to earn promotion to top flight , the 2001–02 season posed an insurmountable challenge for Politehnica . Zambons departure following disagreements with the local authorities meant the club found itself in dire financial straits . Forced to use mostly youth players , Politehnica finished the season dead last , with one win and four draws to its name , but negative eight points in the standings , due to unpaid debts . Once again the club was bound to be relegated to the third division . Identity crisis , glory years and downfall ( 2002–2012 ) . In 2002 , AEK Bucharest were promoted to Liga I , Romanian footballs top division , for the first time , whereupon Anton Doboș , the clubs owner , moved it to Timișoara . It was renamed Politehnica AEK Timișoara after merging with CSU Politehnica , a club owned and run by the Politehnica University , and received the full support of local authorities and white-purple fans . After a rocky first season , which required a spectacular relegation play-off against Gloria Buzău to avoid demotion , Poli AEK consolidated during the next season , finishing on a safe mid-table position . Moreover , starting with the 2004–05 season , the team changed its name to FCU Politehnica Timișoara , trying to reestablish its former identity . Financially difficulties looming , Politehnica changed ownership once more . Former president Anton Doboș stayed on at the club for another year in a new position , while Balkan Petroleum Ltd. , owned by Marian Iancu , took full charge . Significant investments in the transfer market transformed the club overnight , as it received the nickname EuroPoli for its newly found ambitions to reach the top of Romanian football . During the takeover by Marian Iancu , a dispute regarding the proprietary rights for the club name , colors and records arose . After prolonged litigation , Politehnica was forced to change its name to FC Timișoara , following a decision by the Court of Arbitration for Sport . It was deemed that the colors and records dating before 2002 were lost in favor of former Politehnica Timișoara owner , Claudio Zambon . The Italian had struck a deal with AFC Politehnica , the non-profit association which owned said proprietary items , when he left Timișoara during the 2001–02 season . Results on the pitch improved immediately after the takeover , but a leap to the Liga 1 podium proved elusive until 2008–09 , when Politehnica finished runner-up , a feat repeated two seasons later . The club did , however , rejoin European football the season before that by qualifying for the UEFA Cup – sixteen years after its last appearance against Atletico Madrid . More European appearances followed , culminating with the qualification for the 3rd preliminary round of the 2009–10 UEFA Champions League . The team defeated the reigning UEFA Cup champions Shakhtar Donetsk , but were eliminated from the competition during the Playoff Round , which still meant the club would take part in the 2009–10 UEFA Europa League group stage . In November 2010 , the Romanian Court of Appeal returned Politehnicas name , colors and records to FC Timișoara . However , at the end of the season , despite finishing second in the Liga I standings , the club was relegated to Liga II after failing to meet the licence requirements to play in the first division . Under the name of Politehnica Timişoara , they took part in the 2011–12 Liga II season and finished first , but were again denied the licence to play in Liga I . Consequently , the club filed for bankruptcy and was dissolved in September 2012 . Rebirth as ACS Poli Timișoara and recent years ( 2012–present ) . In the summer of 2012 , ACS Recaș , a club just promoted to the Liga II , was moved to Timișoara and renamed ACS Poli Timișoara after the dissolution of FC Politehnica Timișoara . The new club is co-owned by the City Council and the County Council and has the backing of the Politehnica University of Timișoara , all three being active members in the legal entity running the club . However , the ultras supporters rejected the move and decided to support an alternative project in the lower leagues , ASU Politehnica Timişoara . Valentin Velcea continued as head coach , while the roster consisted mostly of the core ACS Recaș players and several players from FC Politehnica . At its conception , the club , established as an NGO , was primarily financed by the local authorities , as Timișoara mayor Nicolae Robu insisted control should not be forfeited to private investors . After initially playing in black/white/yellow kits , in order to avoid legal complications while the court ruled over the rightful owner following the bankruptcy of FC Politehnica , the club returned to its historic white-purple colors starting with the 2015–2016 season . As of February 2016 , ACS Poli Timişoara is the sole and full owner of all the rights pertaining to and deriving from the Politehnica Timișoara brand and records , following a court decision which nullified the original agreement between the founding club and record holders , and Marian Iancus insolvent club . From a competitive perspective , the club failed to equal the achievements of the Marian Iancu era . A yo-yo-ing between the first two leagues , reminiscent of the Politehnicas travails in the 1980s , ensued . The situation was amplified by the fact that the financing received from the local authorities was deemed illegal in the summer of 2015 , which left the club without its main financial benefactor . The highlight season for the new Poli came about in 2016–2017 , when the club started with a 14 points penalty , as it failed to reach a points minimum the previous year and recorded unpaid debts . In spite of this , Poli , under the management of Ionuţ Popa , rallied to reach the relegation play-off in the dying minutes of the season and defeated rivals UTA Arad 5–2 on aggregate . Moreover , the club reached the first national cup final , finishing runner-up in the Cupa Ligii , while also reaching the semi-finals of the Romanian Cup . The following season was another struggle and Poli suffered a reversal of fortunes as they were relegated by courtesy of a goal scored late in the last matchday . With financial pressures mounting , the club declared insolvency during the 2018–2019 Liga 2 season and struggled to stay competitive , becoming involved in another fight to avoid relegation . In order to mitigate costs , it was also forced to relocate from the Dan Păltinişanu stadium to the Electrica stadium . Supporters and Rivalries . Historically , Poli has been the most prominent football club in Timișoara after 1945 , playing consistently in either the first or the second tier of Romanian football . Local rivalries with CFR Timișoara and UM Timișoara were relevant until the early 2000s . Afterwards , the former was relegated to a semi-professional status in the lower leagues and the latter was dissolved in 2008 . Nationally , there were strong rivalries with UTA Arad and Dinamo București . The matches against UTA were labeled as the West Derby , due to the proximity of Timișoara and Arad . Matches against CFR Cluj , FCSB , and Universitatea Craiova also drew large crowds . After the club reincarnated as ACS Poli in 2012 , the core factions of the ultras movement decided to support an alternate club in the lower leagues , ASU Politehnica Timișoara . ACS Poli struggled to fill the void created by their departure , with smaller fan factions forming to support the club . Although top-bill matches with historic rivals still attract fans to the stadium , attendances have dropped compared to the averages attained in the 2000s . Honours .

] | easy | Who coached the team ACS Poli Timișoara from May 2016 to Feb 2018? | /wiki/ACS_Poli_Timișoara#P286#4 | ACS Poli Timișoara Asociația Club Sportiv Poli Timișoara ( ) , commonly known as Poli Timișoara , is a Romanian professional football club based in Timișoara , Timiș County , currently playing in the Liga III . The club is credited as the official record holder and legal successor of the original club founded in 1921 , FC Politehnica Timișoara , which went bankrupt and was dissolved , following the 2011–12 season . It is co-owned by the City Council and the County Council and has the backing of the Politehnica University of Timișoara , all three being active members in the legal entity running the club . The team has won two Romanian Cups and was twice a runner-up in Liga I . It is ranked 5th in the Liga I All-Time Table , with 48 seasons played . Poli Timişoara traditionally plays in white and purple kits , although it has used variations of black and white in the past . The clubs current home ground is Electrica stadium , although most of its history it played on Dan Păltinișanu Stadium . History . Beginnings of Politehnica Timișoara ( 1921–1945 ) . The club was founded in 1921 by the Polytechnic University of Timișoara under the name Societatea Sportiva Politehnica . Its initial aim was to provide an opportunity for university students to work on their fitness within a competitive environment . The logistics of the sport proved problematic , as there were limited financial means available . Thanks to contributions gathered from university professors and employees , the club bought their first football kits , with white-black vertical stripes , and rented the Patria football stadium . It was not until 1928 that the club developed its own training grounds , Politehnica , which were built by volunteers . Players for the team were chosen on merit from the pool of Timișoara students and high-schoolers , who trained after school hours during the week and played football on weekends . The football landscape in the city was already developed at that time , with CAT , RGMT and Chinezul dominating locally . After spending three years in the District Championships II , Politehnica won promotion to the first tier in 1924 , by defeating Kadima Timișoara . The club became established in the years to come , even finishing 2nd in the 1926–27 District Championships I , when Politehnica lost out to Chinezul by a single point , who were one of Romanias most famous football names at the time . However , the competitive level could not be easily sustained by a university club , as it was subject to the inflow and outflow of players conditioned by their student status . After a decline towards the end of the decade , the low-point came at the beginning of the 1930s , between 1931 and 1933 , when due to insufficient material resources , Politehnica had to suspend its football activities . It reappeared in 1934 but remained a modest club , with mid-table classifications in the District Championships I , as well as the Divizia C and Divizia B , once they were founded . As war beckoned , the national championships were suspended and all football activities reduced to friendly matches and the Cupa Eroilor ( 1943–44 ) . Until the second World War , Politehnica was far from the number one Timișoara football club . Chinezul and then Ripensia won multiple Romanian championship , whereas the students club failed to achieve similar results . It did , however , propel several players to the Romania national football team , with the likes of Sfera , Ignuţa , Deheleanu , Chiroiu , Pop , Protopopescu and Sepi all wearing the national jerseys . Establishment as one of the citys most representative clubs ( 1945–1991 ) . With Romania under a communist regime , these decades were a challenge for Politehnica , as the club represented an educational institution of the highest tier . The numerous promotions and relegations between the first two national leagues were contrasted by the two Romanian cups won and the clubs first forays into international football . Politehnica was first promoted to Romanian top league , the Divizia A , in 1948 , and played under the name CSU Timișoara in the first season . Shortly thereafter ( from 1950 ) , the club was renamed Știința Timișoara , in line with the desired nomenclature of the times . In spite of suffering its first relegation in 1951 , the decade was an unusually consistent one , with the club returning swiftly to the top division and staying there until the season 1959 . The high-point of the Ştiinţa years was winning the 1957–58 Romanian Cup , a 1–0 victory against Progresul București , with the club finishing joint first in the league in the same season , but losing out on goal difference . The next decade saw the club struggle to remain in the first league , particularly towards the end of the 60s . However , it was then that the clubs modern identity started taking shape . Firstly , in 1963 , the largest stadium in Timişoara was completed . It was initially named 1 Mai , honoring the socialist workers day , before being renamed several times in the 90s and finally settling on Stadionul Dan Păltinişanu . Secondly , the club reverted to its previous name of Politehnica Timișoara in 1966 and went to play during the next five decades on the then-erected stadium . When Politehnica returned to the first league in 1973 , after struggling to win promotion for several years , it went on to celebrate one of its best streaks in the top flight . With the likes of Emeric Dembrovschi and Dan Păltinişanu in the team , who both played for Romania and went on to become some of the most capped players in the clubs history , and under the management of prof . Ion V . Ionescu , Politehnica lost that seasons cup final . After managing a third place in the league with manager Angelo Niculescu in 1978 , Politehnica took part in a continental competition for the first time . It was the 1978–79 UEFA Cup , where Poli defeated MTK Budapest ( 2–0 and 1–2 ) , before going down to Honved Budapest ( 2–0 and 0–4 ) in the second round . The club remained steady and managed to win its second cup trophy the following season , by beating Steaua București with 2–1 , after extra time . Politehnica thereby qualified for the UEFA Cup Winners Cup , where it managed to eliminate Celtic Glasgow ( 1–0 and 1–2 ) , before being defeated by West Ham United ( 1–0 and 0–4 ) in second leg . In spite of losing another Romanian Cup final in 1981 , the club qualified once more for the UEFA Cup Winners Cup , where they lost to Leipzig 2–5 on aggregate . After being relegated in 1983 , Politehnica yo-yo-ed between Divizia A and the Divizia B , with promotions in 1984 , 1987 , 1989 and relegations in 1986 and 1988 . Fans ironically called this period as the ABBA years . As the Romanian Revolution , which started in Timișoara , signalled the end of an era , Politehnica managed to grab its most impressive result yet in European competitions , by eliminating Atlético Madrid ( 2–0 and 0–1 ) in the 1990–91 UEFA Cup .

It was not until 1928 that the club developed its own training grounds , Politehnica , which were built by volunteers . Players for the team were chosen on merit from the pool of Timișoara students and high-schoolers , who trained after school hours during the week and played football on weekends . The football landscape in the city was already developed at that time , with CAT , RGMT and Chinezul dominating locally . After spending three years in the District Championships II , Politehnica won promotion to the first tier in 1924 , by defeating Kadima Timișoara . The club became established in the years to come , even finishing 2nd in the 1926–27 District Championships I , when Politehnica lost out to Chinezul by a single point , who were one of Romanias most famous football names at the time . However , the competitive level could not be easily sustained by a university club , as it was subject to the inflow and outflow of players conditioned by their student status . After a decline towards the end of the decade , the low-point came at the beginning of the 1930s , between 1931 and 1933 , when due to insufficient material resources , Politehnica had to suspend its football activities . It reappeared in 1934 but remained a modest club , with mid-table classifications in the District Championships I , as well as the Divizia C and Divizia B , once they were founded . As war beckoned , the national championships were suspended and all football activities reduced to friendly matches and the Cupa Eroilor ( 1943–44 ) . Until the second World War , Politehnica was far from the number one Timișoara football club . Chinezul and then Ripensia won multiple Romanian championship , whereas the students club failed to achieve similar results . It did , however , propel several players to the Romania national football team , with the likes of Sfera , Ignuţa , Deheleanu , Chiroiu , Pop , Protopopescu and Sepi all wearing the national jerseys . Establishment as one of the citys most representative clubs ( 1945–1991 ) . With Romania under a communist regime , these decades were a challenge for Politehnica , as the club represented an educational institution of the highest tier . The numerous promotions and relegations between the first two national leagues were contrasted by the two Romanian cups won and the clubs first forays into international football . Politehnica was first promoted to Romanian top league , the Divizia A , in 1948 , and played under the name CSU Timișoara in the first season . Shortly thereafter ( from 1950 ) , the club was renamed Știința Timișoara , in line with the desired nomenclature of the times . In spite of suffering its first relegation in 1951 , the decade was an unusually consistent one , with the club returning swiftly to the top division and staying there until the season 1959 . The high-point of the Ştiinţa years was winning the 1957–58 Romanian Cup , a 1–0 victory against Progresul București , with the club finishing joint first in the league in the same season , but losing out on goal difference . The next decade saw the club struggle to remain in the first league , particularly towards the end of the 60s . However , it was then that the clubs modern identity started taking shape . Firstly , in 1963 , the largest stadium in Timişoara was completed . It was initially named 1 Mai , honoring the socialist workers day , before being renamed several times in the 90s and finally settling on Stadionul Dan Păltinişanu . Secondly , the club reverted to its previous name of Politehnica Timișoara in 1966 and went to play during the next five decades on the then-erected stadium . When Politehnica returned to the first league in 1973 , after struggling to win promotion for several years , it went on to celebrate one of its best streaks in the top flight . With the likes of Emeric Dembrovschi and Dan Păltinişanu in the team , who both played for Romania and went on to become some of the most capped players in the clubs history , and under the management of prof . Ion V . Ionescu , Politehnica lost that seasons cup final . After managing a third place in the league with manager Angelo Niculescu in 1978 , Politehnica took part in a continental competition for the first time . It was the 1978–79 UEFA Cup , where Poli defeated MTK Budapest ( 2–0 and 1–2 ) , before going down to Honved Budapest ( 2–0 and 0–4 ) in the second round . The club remained steady and managed to win its second cup trophy the following season , by beating Steaua București with 2–1 , after extra time . Politehnica thereby qualified for the UEFA Cup Winners Cup , where it managed to eliminate Celtic Glasgow ( 1–0 and 1–2 ) , before being defeated by West Ham United ( 1–0 and 0–4 ) in second leg . In spite of losing another Romanian Cup final in 1981 , the club qualified once more for the UEFA Cup Winners Cup , where they lost to Leipzig 2–5 on aggregate . After being relegated in 1983 , Politehnica yo-yo-ed between Divizia A and the Divizia B , with promotions in 1984 , 1987 , 1989 and relegations in 1986 and 1988 . Fans ironically called this period as the ABBA years . As the Romanian Revolution , which started in Timișoara , signalled the end of an era , Politehnica managed to grab its most impressive result yet in European competitions , by eliminating Atlético Madrid ( 2–0 and 0–1 ) in the 1990–91 UEFA Cup . Privatization and detachment from the Polytechnic University ( 1991–2001 ) . By state order , all public institutions were forced to relinquish and reorganize any owned sports clubs in 1991 , to effectively privatize them . As a result , alongside the newly organized football club appeared a non-profit association , AFC Politehnica Timișoara . The latter , consisting of previous club players and staff , was mandated with owning and protecting the club records and intellectual property . The clubs swan song near the top of Romanian football for the next decade was to be the 1991–92 season . Poli finished 5th and also reached the Romanian Cup final , only to lose it on penalties against Steaua București . The consequent participation in the 1992–93 UEFA Cup , saw the club draw against Real Madrid ( 1–1 in Timișoara ) , before being defeated in the return leg ( 0–4 ) . Politehnica lost several key players in the years after the forced privatization , which slowly lead to the teams downfall . In fewer than twenty four months from their draw against Real , the club was relegated to the Divizia B in 1994 . Despite a fast return to the first league in 1995 , Poli failed to consolidate their position and were soon relegated once more after the 1996–97 season . An inability to rebound lead to mounting financial pressures . The club was temporarily owned by a Timișoara based businessman between 1998 and 2000 , before the local authorities accepted the bid of an Italian investor , Claudio Zambon , to take over Politehnica . Despite an initial financial outlay , Poli finished 15th and was relegated to the third league , Divizia C , where it had last played in 1938 . To avoid such an outcome , Zambon and the local authorities struck a deal with a league two club , Dacia Pitești , and purchased their license to participate in the Divizia B . After failing to earn promotion to top flight , the 2001–02 season posed an insurmountable challenge for Politehnica . Zambons departure following disagreements with the local authorities meant the club found itself in dire financial straits . Forced to use mostly youth players , Politehnica finished the season dead last , with one win and four draws to its name , but negative eight points in the standings , due to unpaid debts . Once again the club was bound to be relegated to the third division . Identity crisis , glory years and downfall ( 2002–2012 ) . In 2002 , AEK Bucharest were promoted to Liga I , Romanian footballs top division , for the first time , whereupon Anton Doboș , the clubs owner , moved it to Timișoara . It was renamed Politehnica AEK Timișoara after merging with CSU Politehnica , a club owned and run by the Politehnica University , and received the full support of local authorities and white-purple fans . After a rocky first season , which required a spectacular relegation play-off against Gloria Buzău to avoid demotion , Poli AEK consolidated during the next season , finishing on a safe mid-table position . Moreover , starting with the 2004–05 season , the team changed its name to FCU Politehnica Timișoara , trying to reestablish its former identity . Financially difficulties looming , Politehnica changed ownership once more . Former president Anton Doboș stayed on at the club for another year in a new position , while Balkan Petroleum Ltd. , owned by Marian Iancu , took full charge . Significant investments in the transfer market transformed the club overnight , as it received the nickname EuroPoli for its newly found ambitions to reach the top of Romanian football . During the takeover by Marian Iancu , a dispute regarding the proprietary rights for the club name , colors and records arose . After prolonged litigation , Politehnica was forced to change its name to FC Timișoara , following a decision by the Court of Arbitration for Sport . It was deemed that the colors and records dating before 2002 were lost in favor of former Politehnica Timișoara owner , Claudio Zambon . The Italian had struck a deal with AFC Politehnica , the non-profit association which owned said proprietary items , when he left Timișoara during the 2001–02 season . Results on the pitch improved immediately after the takeover , but a leap to the Liga 1 podium proved elusive until 2008–09 , when Politehnica finished runner-up , a feat repeated two seasons later . The club did , however , rejoin European football the season before that by qualifying for the UEFA Cup – sixteen years after its last appearance against Atletico Madrid . More European appearances followed , culminating with the qualification for the 3rd preliminary round of the 2009–10 UEFA Champions League . The team defeated the reigning UEFA Cup champions Shakhtar Donetsk , but were eliminated from the competition during the Playoff Round , which still meant the club would take part in the 2009–10 UEFA Europa League group stage . In November 2010 , the Romanian Court of Appeal returned Politehnicas name , colors and records to FC Timișoara . However , at the end of the season , despite finishing second in the Liga I standings , the club was relegated to Liga II after failing to meet the licence requirements to play in the first division . Under the name of Politehnica Timişoara , they took part in the 2011–12 Liga II season and finished first , but were again denied the licence to play in Liga I . Consequently , the club filed for bankruptcy and was dissolved in September 2012 . Rebirth as ACS Poli Timișoara and recent years ( 2012–present ) . In the summer of 2012 , ACS Recaș , a club just promoted to the Liga II , was moved to Timișoara and renamed ACS Poli Timișoara after the dissolution of FC Politehnica Timișoara . The new club is co-owned by the City Council and the County Council and has the backing of the Politehnica University of Timișoara , all three being active members in the legal entity running the club . However , the ultras supporters rejected the move and decided to support an alternative project in the lower leagues , ASU Politehnica Timişoara . Valentin Velcea continued as head coach , while the roster consisted mostly of the core ACS Recaș players and several players from FC Politehnica . At its conception , the club , established as an NGO , was primarily financed by the local authorities , as Timișoara mayor Nicolae Robu insisted control should not be forfeited to private investors . After initially playing in black/white/yellow kits , in order to avoid legal complications while the court ruled over the rightful owner following the bankruptcy of FC Politehnica , the club returned to its historic white-purple colors starting with the 2015–2016 season . As of February 2016 , ACS Poli Timişoara is the sole and full owner of all the rights pertaining to and deriving from the Politehnica Timișoara brand and records , following a court decision which nullified the original agreement between the founding club and record holders , and Marian Iancus insolvent club . From a competitive perspective , the club failed to equal the achievements of the Marian Iancu era . A yo-yo-ing between the first two leagues , reminiscent of the Politehnicas travails in the 1980s , ensued . The situation was amplified by the fact that the financing received from the local authorities was deemed illegal in the summer of 2015 , which left the club without its main financial benefactor . The highlight season for the new Poli came about in 2016–2017 , when the club started with a 14 points penalty , as it failed to reach a points minimum the previous year and recorded unpaid debts . In spite of this , Poli , under the management of Ionuţ Popa , rallied to reach the relegation play-off in the dying minutes of the season and defeated rivals UTA Arad 5–2 on aggregate . Moreover , the club reached the first national cup final , finishing runner-up in the Cupa Ligii , while also reaching the semi-finals of the Romanian Cup . The following season was another struggle and Poli suffered a reversal of fortunes as they were relegated by courtesy of a goal scored late in the last matchday . With financial pressures mounting , the club declared insolvency during the 2018–2019 Liga 2 season and struggled to stay competitive , becoming involved in another fight to avoid relegation . In order to mitigate costs , it was also forced to relocate from the Dan Păltinişanu stadium to the Electrica stadium . Supporters and Rivalries . Historically , Poli has been the most prominent football club in Timișoara after 1945 , playing consistently in either the first or the second tier of Romanian football . Local rivalries with CFR Timișoara and UM Timișoara were relevant until the early 2000s . Afterwards , the former was relegated to a semi-professional status in the lower leagues and the latter was dissolved in 2008 . Nationally , there were strong rivalries with UTA Arad and Dinamo București . The matches against UTA were labeled as the West Derby , due to the proximity of Timișoara and Arad . Matches against CFR Cluj , FCSB , and Universitatea Craiova also drew large crowds . After the club reincarnated as ACS Poli in 2012 , the core factions of the ultras movement decided to support an alternate club in the lower leagues , ASU Politehnica Timișoara . ACS Poli struggled to fill the void created by their departure , with smaller fan factions forming to support the club . Although top-bill matches with historic rivals still attract fans to the stadium , attendances have dropped compared to the averages attained in the 2000s . Honours .

The club is credited as the official record holder and legal successor of the original club founded in 1921 , FC Politehnica Timișoara , which went bankrupt and was dissolved , following the 2011–12 season . It is co-owned by the City Council and the County Council and has the backing of the Politehnica University of Timișoara , all three being active members in the legal entity running the club . The team has won two Romanian Cups and was twice a runner-up in Liga I . It is ranked 5th in the Liga I All-Time Table , with 48 seasons played . Poli Timişoara traditionally plays in white and purple kits , although it has used variations of black and white in the past . The clubs current home ground is Electrica stadium , although most of its history it played on Dan Păltinișanu Stadium . History . Beginnings of Politehnica Timișoara ( 1921–1945 ) . The club was founded in 1921 by the Polytechnic University of Timișoara under the name Societatea Sportiva Politehnica . Its initial aim was to provide an opportunity for university students to work on their fitness within a competitive environment . The logistics of the sport proved problematic , as there were limited financial means available .

Nationally , there were strong rivalries with UTA Arad and Dinamo București . The matches against UTA were labeled as the West Derby , due to the proximity of Timișoara and Arad . Matches against CFR Cluj , FCSB , and Universitatea Craiova also drew large crowds . After the club reincarnated as ACS Poli in 2012 , the core factions of the ultras movement decided to support an alternate club in the lower leagues , ASU Politehnica Timișoara . ACS Poli struggled to fill the void created by their departure , with smaller fan factions forming to support the club . Although top-bill matches with historic rivals still attract fans to the stadium , attendances have dropped compared to the averages attained in the 2000s . Honours .

"Adrian Neaga"
] | easy | Who coached the team ACS Poli Timișoara in Apr 2018? | /wiki/ACS_Poli_Timișoara#P286#7 | ACS Poli Timișoara Asociația Club Sportiv Poli Timișoara ( ) , commonly known as Poli Timișoara , is a Romanian professional football club based in Timișoara , Timiș County , currently playing in the Liga III . The club is credited as the official record holder and legal successor of the original club founded in 1921 , FC Politehnica Timișoara , which went bankrupt and was dissolved , following the 2011–12 season . It is co-owned by the City Council and the County Council and has the backing of the Politehnica University of Timișoara , all three being active members in the legal entity running the club . The team has won two Romanian Cups and was twice a runner-up in Liga I . It is ranked 5th in the Liga I All-Time Table , with 48 seasons played . Poli Timişoara traditionally plays in white and purple kits , although it has used variations of black and white in the past . The clubs current home ground is Electrica stadium , although most of its history it played on Dan Păltinișanu Stadium . History . Beginnings of Politehnica Timișoara ( 1921–1945 ) . The club was founded in 1921 by the Polytechnic University of Timișoara under the name Societatea Sportiva Politehnica . Its initial aim was to provide an opportunity for university students to work on their fitness within a competitive environment . The logistics of the sport proved problematic , as there were limited financial means available . Thanks to contributions gathered from university professors and employees , the club bought their first football kits , with white-black vertical stripes , and rented the Patria football stadium . It was not until 1928 that the club developed its own training grounds , Politehnica , which were built by volunteers . Players for the team were chosen on merit from the pool of Timișoara students and high-schoolers , who trained after school hours during the week and played football on weekends . The football landscape in the city was already developed at that time , with CAT , RGMT and Chinezul dominating locally . After spending three years in the District Championships II , Politehnica won promotion to the first tier in 1924 , by defeating Kadima Timișoara . The club became established in the years to come , even finishing 2nd in the 1926–27 District Championships I , when Politehnica lost out to Chinezul by a single point , who were one of Romanias most famous football names at the time . However , the competitive level could not be easily sustained by a university club , as it was subject to the inflow and outflow of players conditioned by their student status . After a decline towards the end of the decade , the low-point came at the beginning of the 1930s , between 1931 and 1933 , when due to insufficient material resources , Politehnica had to suspend its football activities . It reappeared in 1934 but remained a modest club , with mid-table classifications in the District Championships I , as well as the Divizia C and Divizia B , once they were founded . As war beckoned , the national championships were suspended and all football activities reduced to friendly matches and the Cupa Eroilor ( 1943–44 ) . Until the second World War , Politehnica was far from the number one Timișoara football club . Chinezul and then Ripensia won multiple Romanian championship , whereas the students club failed to achieve similar results . It did , however , propel several players to the Romania national football team , with the likes of Sfera , Ignuţa , Deheleanu , Chiroiu , Pop , Protopopescu and Sepi all wearing the national jerseys . Establishment as one of the citys most representative clubs ( 1945–1991 ) . With Romania under a communist regime , these decades were a challenge for Politehnica , as the club represented an educational institution of the highest tier . The numerous promotions and relegations between the first two national leagues were contrasted by the two Romanian cups won and the clubs first forays into international football . Politehnica was first promoted to Romanian top league , the Divizia A , in 1948 , and played under the name CSU Timișoara in the first season . Shortly thereafter ( from 1950 ) , the club was renamed Știința Timișoara , in line with the desired nomenclature of the times . In spite of suffering its first relegation in 1951 , the decade was an unusually consistent one , with the club returning swiftly to the top division and staying there until the season 1959 . The high-point of the Ştiinţa years was winning the 1957–58 Romanian Cup , a 1–0 victory against Progresul București , with the club finishing joint first in the league in the same season , but losing out on goal difference . The next decade saw the club struggle to remain in the first league , particularly towards the end of the 60s . However , it was then that the clubs modern identity started taking shape . Firstly , in 1963 , the largest stadium in Timişoara was completed . It was initially named 1 Mai , honoring the socialist workers day , before being renamed several times in the 90s and finally settling on Stadionul Dan Păltinişanu . Secondly , the club reverted to its previous name of Politehnica Timișoara in 1966 and went to play during the next five decades on the then-erected stadium . When Politehnica returned to the first league in 1973 , after struggling to win promotion for several years , it went on to celebrate one of its best streaks in the top flight . With the likes of Emeric Dembrovschi and Dan Păltinişanu in the team , who both played for Romania and went on to become some of the most capped players in the clubs history , and under the management of prof . Ion V . Ionescu , Politehnica lost that seasons cup final . After managing a third place in the league with manager Angelo Niculescu in 1978 , Politehnica took part in a continental competition for the first time . It was the 1978–79 UEFA Cup , where Poli defeated MTK Budapest ( 2–0 and 1–2 ) , before going down to Honved Budapest ( 2–0 and 0–4 ) in the second round . The club remained steady and managed to win its second cup trophy the following season , by beating Steaua București with 2–1 , after extra time . Politehnica thereby qualified for the UEFA Cup Winners Cup , where it managed to eliminate Celtic Glasgow ( 1–0 and 1–2 ) , before being defeated by West Ham United ( 1–0 and 0–4 ) in second leg . In spite of losing another Romanian Cup final in 1981 , the club qualified once more for the UEFA Cup Winners Cup , where they lost to Leipzig 2–5 on aggregate . After being relegated in 1983 , Politehnica yo-yo-ed between Divizia A and the Divizia B , with promotions in 1984 , 1987 , 1989 and relegations in 1986 and 1988 . Fans ironically called this period as the ABBA years . As the Romanian Revolution , which started in Timișoara , signalled the end of an era , Politehnica managed to grab its most impressive result yet in European competitions , by eliminating Atlético Madrid ( 2–0 and 0–1 ) in the 1990–91 UEFA Cup . Privatization and detachment from the Polytechnic University ( 1991–2001 ) . By state order , all public institutions were forced to relinquish and reorganize any owned sports clubs in 1991 , to effectively privatize them . As a result , alongside the newly organized football club appeared a non-profit association , AFC Politehnica Timișoara . The latter , consisting of previous club players and staff , was mandated with owning and protecting the club records and intellectual property . The clubs swan song near the top of Romanian football for the next decade was to be the 1991–92 season . Poli finished 5th and also reached the Romanian Cup final , only to lose it on penalties against Steaua București . The consequent participation in the 1992–93 UEFA Cup , saw the club draw against Real Madrid ( 1–1 in Timișoara ) , before being defeated in the return leg ( 0–4 ) . Politehnica lost several key players in the years after the forced privatization , which slowly lead to the teams downfall . In fewer than twenty four months from their draw against Real , the club was relegated to the Divizia B in 1994 . Despite a fast return to the first league in 1995 , Poli failed to consolidate their position and were soon relegated once more after the 1996–97 season . An inability to rebound lead to mounting financial pressures . The club was temporarily owned by a Timișoara based businessman between 1998 and 2000 , before the local authorities accepted the bid of an Italian investor , Claudio Zambon , to take over Politehnica . Despite an initial financial outlay , Poli finished 15th and was relegated to the third league , Divizia C , where it had last played in 1938 . To avoid such an outcome , Zambon and the local authorities struck a deal with a league two club , Dacia Pitești , and purchased their license to participate in the Divizia B . After failing to earn promotion to top flight , the 2001–02 season posed an insurmountable challenge for Politehnica . Zambons departure following disagreements with the local authorities meant the club found itself in dire financial straits . Forced to use mostly youth players , Politehnica finished the season dead last , with one win and four draws to its name , but negative eight points in the standings , due to unpaid debts . Once again the club was bound to be relegated to the third division . Identity crisis , glory years and downfall ( 2002–2012 ) . In 2002 , AEK Bucharest were promoted to Liga I , Romanian footballs top division , for the first time , whereupon Anton Doboș , the clubs owner , moved it to Timișoara . It was renamed Politehnica AEK Timișoara after merging with CSU Politehnica , a club owned and run by the Politehnica University , and received the full support of local authorities and white-purple fans . After a rocky first season , which required a spectacular relegation play-off against Gloria Buzău to avoid demotion , Poli AEK consolidated during the next season , finishing on a safe mid-table position . Moreover , starting with the 2004–05 season , the team changed its name to FCU Politehnica Timișoara , trying to reestablish its former identity . Financially difficulties looming , Politehnica changed ownership once more . Former president Anton Doboș stayed on at the club for another year in a new position , while Balkan Petroleum Ltd. , owned by Marian Iancu , took full charge . Significant investments in the transfer market transformed the club overnight , as it received the nickname EuroPoli for its newly found ambitions to reach the top of Romanian football . During the takeover by Marian Iancu , a dispute regarding the proprietary rights for the club name , colors and records arose . After prolonged litigation , Politehnica was forced to change its name to FC Timișoara , following a decision by the Court of Arbitration for Sport . It was deemed that the colors and records dating before 2002 were lost in favor of former Politehnica Timișoara owner , Claudio Zambon . The Italian had struck a deal with AFC Politehnica , the non-profit association which owned said proprietary items , when he left Timișoara during the 2001–02 season . Results on the pitch improved immediately after the takeover , but a leap to the Liga 1 podium proved elusive until 2008–09 , when Politehnica finished runner-up , a feat repeated two seasons later . The club did , however , rejoin European football the season before that by qualifying for the UEFA Cup – sixteen years after its last appearance against Atletico Madrid . More European appearances followed , culminating with the qualification for the 3rd preliminary round of the 2009–10 UEFA Champions League . The team defeated the reigning UEFA Cup champions Shakhtar Donetsk , but were eliminated from the competition during the Playoff Round , which still meant the club would take part in the 2009–10 UEFA Europa League group stage . In November 2010 , the Romanian Court of Appeal returned Politehnicas name , colors and records to FC Timișoara . However , at the end of the season , despite finishing second in the Liga I standings , the club was relegated to Liga II after failing to meet the licence requirements to play in the first division . Under the name of Politehnica Timişoara , they took part in the 2011–12 Liga II season and finished first , but were again denied the licence to play in Liga I . Consequently , the club filed for bankruptcy and was dissolved in September 2012 . Rebirth as ACS Poli Timișoara and recent years ( 2012–present ) . In the summer of 2012 , ACS Recaș , a club just promoted to the Liga II , was moved to Timișoara and renamed ACS Poli Timișoara after the dissolution of FC Politehnica Timișoara . The new club is co-owned by the City Council and the County Council and has the backing of the Politehnica University of Timișoara , all three being active members in the legal entity running the club . However , the ultras supporters rejected the move and decided to support an alternative project in the lower leagues , ASU Politehnica Timişoara . Valentin Velcea continued as head coach , while the roster consisted mostly of the core ACS Recaș players and several players from FC Politehnica . At its conception , the club , established as an NGO , was primarily financed by the local authorities , as Timișoara mayor Nicolae Robu insisted control should not be forfeited to private investors . After initially playing in black/white/yellow kits , in order to avoid legal complications while the court ruled over the rightful owner following the bankruptcy of FC Politehnica , the club returned to its historic white-purple colors starting with the 2015–2016 season . As of February 2016 , ACS Poli Timişoara is the sole and full owner of all the rights pertaining to and deriving from the Politehnica Timișoara brand and records , following a court decision which nullified the original agreement between the founding club and record holders , and Marian Iancus insolvent club . From a competitive perspective , the club failed to equal the achievements of the Marian Iancu era . A yo-yo-ing between the first two leagues , reminiscent of the Politehnicas travails in the 1980s , ensued . The situation was amplified by the fact that the financing received from the local authorities was deemed illegal in the summer of 2015 , which left the club without its main financial benefactor . The highlight season for the new Poli came about in 2016–2017 , when the club started with a 14 points penalty , as it failed to reach a points minimum the previous year and recorded unpaid debts . In spite of this , Poli , under the management of Ionuţ Popa , rallied to reach the relegation play-off in the dying minutes of the season and defeated rivals UTA Arad 5–2 on aggregate . Moreover , the club reached the first national cup final , finishing runner-up in the Cupa Ligii , while also reaching the semi-finals of the Romanian Cup . The following season was another struggle and Poli suffered a reversal of fortunes as they were relegated by courtesy of a goal scored late in the last matchday . With financial pressures mounting , the club declared insolvency during the 2018–2019 Liga 2 season and struggled to stay competitive , becoming involved in another fight to avoid relegation . In order to mitigate costs , it was also forced to relocate from the Dan Păltinişanu stadium to the Electrica stadium . Supporters and Rivalries . Historically , Poli has been the most prominent football club in Timișoara after 1945 , playing consistently in either the first or the second tier of Romanian football . Local rivalries with CFR Timișoara and UM Timișoara were relevant until the early 2000s . Afterwards , the former was relegated to a semi-professional status in the lower leagues and the latter was dissolved in 2008 . Nationally , there were strong rivalries with UTA Arad and Dinamo București . The matches against UTA were labeled as the West Derby , due to the proximity of Timișoara and Arad . Matches against CFR Cluj , FCSB , and Universitatea Craiova also drew large crowds . After the club reincarnated as ACS Poli in 2012 , the core factions of the ultras movement decided to support an alternate club in the lower leagues , ASU Politehnica Timișoara . ACS Poli struggled to fill the void created by their departure , with smaller fan factions forming to support the club . Although top-bill matches with historic rivals still attract fans to the stadium , attendances have dropped compared to the averages attained in the 2000s . Honours .

"Powerlifting"
] | easy | What was Bill Kazmaier 's occupation from 1978 to 1979? | /wiki/Bill_Kazmaier#P106#0 | Bill Kazmaier William Kazmaier ( born December 30 , 1953 ) is an American former world champion powerlifter , world champion strongman and professional wrestler . During the 1970s and 1980s , he set numerous powerlifting and strongman world records , and won two International Powerlifting Federation ( IPF ) World Championships and three Worlds Strongest Man titles . In the 1980s , Kazmaier became famous for his claim to be the strongest man who ever lived by equaling and surpassing spectacular and versatile feats of strength of famous strongmen of the 20th century . He is widely considered to be one of the all-time greatest competitors in strength competitions . Early career . Kazmaier is of German ancestry . A star athlete in high school , Kazmaier played football for two years at the University of Wisconsin–Madison before dropping out in 1974 to concentrate on lifting weights at the Madison YMCA . There he learned the fundamentals of powerlifting . Kazmaier then struggled to earn a living as an oil rigger , a bouncer , and a lumberjack . Powerlifting career . At the 1978 Amateur Athletic Union ( AAU ) National Championships in Los Angeles , California , Kazmaier squatted 782 lbs , bench pressed 534 lbs , and deadlifted 804 lbs in the 275-pound weight class , which immediately placed him in the top rank in his first national powerlifting appearance . In 1979 at age 25 , he set a world record with a bench press of 622 lbs on the way to winning his first IPF World Powerlifting Championship in Dayton , Ohio . His winning lifts included an 865 lbs squat , the 622 lbs bench press and an 804 lbs deadlift for a 2291 lbs total . He repeated the success in 1983 by first winning the United States Powerlifting Federation ( USPF ) National Powerlifting Championships in July and later the IPF World Championship in November for a second time . He won this IPF World Championship despite two major injuries . He had a severe pectoral injury , from which he never recovered completely , and shortly before the IPF Championships , had torn his hip flexors in the squat . The world record bench press in early 1979 was 612 lbs , held by Lars Hedlund . Kazmaier moved the world record stepwise up from 617.3 lbs in July , 1979 to 622.8 lbs in November 1979 to 633.8 lbs in May , 1980 and finally to 661.4 lbs at the USPF West Georgia Open Powerlifting Championships , held in Columbus , Georgia on January 31 , 1981 . In this competition , Kazmaier officially became the first human to bench press 300 kg ( 661.4 lbs ) ( raw ) in an IPF-sanctioned meet* and recorded his lifetime best three-lift-total of 2425 lbs ( 1100 kg ) , a powerlifting world record that remained unsurpassed for more than a decade . His winning lifts were : a 925.9 lbs ( 420 kg ) squat , the 661.4 lbs ( 300 kg ) bench press and an 837.8 lbs ( 380 kg ) deadlift . The bench press and deadlift were done raw ( unequipped ) , while the squat was performed with wraps and a marathon squat suit . His powerlifting performance is regarded as one of the best of all time . In November 1981 , Kazmaier became one of the few lifters in history to hold world records in three of the four powerlifting events at the same time by setting a new deadlift world record at 402 kg ( 886.7 lbs ) raw in competition . From 1981 onwards Kazmaiers career was affected by multiple muscle tears and injuries , preventing him from setting the bar even higher . He sustained chest , shoulder and triceps injuries , ruling out further records in the bench press . Strongman career . Kazmaier competed in six Worlds Strongest Man contests . In 1979 Worlds Strongest Man , he came in third after leading throughout much of the competition and beating powerlifting icon Don Reinhoudt in the car lift by deadlifting a 2555 lbs car . In the following years , he dominated the competitions in 1980 , 1981 , and 1982 , winning all by a large margin . He was the first man to win the WSM title three times and remains one of only two men ever to win it three times in a row . In his 1980 title win , Kazmaier won five of ten events and tied for first in another . He won the log lift , the engine race , the steel bar bend , the girl squat lift , the silver dollar deadlift , and the final tug of war . The runner-up in the competition , Lars Hedlund , was over 28 points behind . During Kazmaiers title defense at the 1981 Worlds Strongest Man he won the squat event with 969 lbs ( 440 kg ) ( on a smith machine ) for a world record , just after tearing his pectoralis major muscle while bending cold rolled steel bars in the bar bend event before . After this tear , he lost more than one-hundred pounds off his bench press , making his 1983 IPF world championship win all that much more significant . Following his win in the squat he went on to win the silver dollar deadlift with a 940 lbs ( 426.4 kg ) lift . Of 11 events he had five wins , two second places , one third and a fourth . His wins included the log lift , deadlift , squat , loading race and engine race . In the 1982 Worlds Strongest Man competition Kazmaier won the first three events . A notable performance in this WSM was his 1055 lbs silver dollar deadlift . Despite being the reigning champion , the organizers decided not to invite Kazmaier to compete in the following four WSM competitions , with Kazmaier claiming it was because he was too dominant . His absence cleared the way for Kazmaiers main rival , Geoff Capes , to win the title in 1983 . Kazmaier continued to compete in lesser known strongman tournaments , such as the Scottish Power Challenge and the Le Defi Mark Ten International . He returned to the Worlds Strongest Man Contest in 1988 , where he won three of eight events – the log press , the deadlift and the sack race – and took two second places including the truck pull , but he was disqualified for moving his hands in the sausage forward hold , so the time was stopped prematurely . With two events to go , he was leading the field and was the favorite to win the following weight over the bar event , in which a 56 lbs weight has to be thrown over a bar . He was holding the World Record in this event from the Highland Games 1984 with a height of 18 feet 3 inches . The event took place on water for the first time and Bills concern about problems with his orientation on water were borne out . Although he threw the weight at least 3 feet higher than the bar , he failed to get the direction right . So he dropped out at only 15 feet 1 inch . With Kazmaiers closest rival Jón Páll Sigmarsson winning the event with a throw over 15 feet 7 inches , Kazmaier came in overall second to Jón Páll . Kazmaier had defeated Sigmarsson in 1987 at the Le Defi Mark Ten event in Canada , and also prior to WSM in 1988 , at the World Musclepower Classic . In Kazmaiers final WSM appearance at the 1989 Worlds Strongest Man , he severely injured his ankle in the first event and already had a ripped biceps . He came in fourth , directly behind Jón Páll Sigmarsson . Kazmaier was the first man to press the unliftable Thomas Inch dumbbell* and became only the fifth person to lift it above the knee , setting this record on October 13 , 1990 . In addition to WSM contests , Kazmaier also competed in other strongman competitions successfully , such as the Strongbow Strongman Challenge , the Scottish Power Challenge , Le Defi Mark Ten Challenge , the World Muscle Power Championships and the Pure Strength contest . He ended his career as a competitive strongman in 1990 . With three Worlds Strongest Man titles , Kazmaier is one of the most successful competitors in the history of the contest . Strength author David Webster called him the greatest American strength athlete of all time , and a 2008 poll of experts rated him as top superheavyweight lifter of all time and one of the strongest men who ever lived . He was featured in Flex magazine on May 2008 , in which a top ten list of the strongest men in history was published . Kazmaier was voted the third strongest man that ever lived , just behind Mark Henry and Žydrūnas Savickas . Professional wrestling career . Inspired by Jim Thorpe , Kazmaier sought to transfer his talents to other sports , trying out for the NFLs Green Bay Packers in 1981 . He also trained as a wrestler with Verne Gagne and Brad Rheingans , and entered professional wrestling in 1986 , with a WWF match in Calgary , Alberta on November 10 , 1986 defeating David Barbie . During the 1980s , he had wrestled for promotions such as Stampede Wrestling in Canada and Continental Championship Wrestling in America . He would also wrestle for Fighting Network RINGS in Japan in early 1991 . His biggest national exposure came when he debuted for World Championship Wrestling in the summer of 1991 . He received several shots at Lex Lugers WCW World Heavyweight Championship but failed to win the title . He also briefly teamed with Rick Steiner , only to lose to The Enforcers in a tournament final for the WCW World Tag Team Championship . At Halloween Havoc 1991 , in Chattanooga , he beat Oz by submission . At the 1991 Starrcade Battlebowl : The Lethal Lottery , Kazmaier and his partner Jushin Thunder Liger defeated Diamond Dallas Page and Mike Graham in Norfolk , Virginia . While in WCW , Kazmaier also wrestled for New Japan Pro-Wrestling . In NJPW , his theme music was Poundcake by Van Halen . Life after competition . Kazmaier opened a fitness club , Kaz Fitness Center , in Auburn , Alabama in the early 1980s . The gym closed in 2005 . Kazmaier then opened , and continues to operate , S.W.A.T . gym in Opelika , Alabama . Both served as a place for him to train and as headquarters for DynaKaz Inc. , Kazmaiers own exercise equipment import-export company , which markets fitness products worldwide .

"Worlds Strongest Man"
] | easy | What was Bill Kazmaier 's occupation from 1979 to Apr 1986? | /wiki/Bill_Kazmaier#P106#1 | Bill Kazmaier William Kazmaier ( born December 30 , 1953 ) is an American former world champion powerlifter , world champion strongman and professional wrestler . During the 1970s and 1980s , he set numerous powerlifting and strongman world records , and won two International Powerlifting Federation ( IPF ) World Championships and three Worlds Strongest Man titles . In the 1980s , Kazmaier became famous for his claim to be the strongest man who ever lived by equaling and surpassing spectacular and versatile feats of strength of famous strongmen of the 20th century . He is widely considered to be one of the all-time greatest competitors in strength competitions . Early career . Kazmaier is of German ancestry . A star athlete in high school , Kazmaier played football for two years at the University of Wisconsin–Madison before dropping out in 1974 to concentrate on lifting weights at the Madison YMCA . There he learned the fundamentals of powerlifting . Kazmaier then struggled to earn a living as an oil rigger , a bouncer , and a lumberjack . Powerlifting career . At the 1978 Amateur Athletic Union ( AAU ) National Championships in Los Angeles , California , Kazmaier squatted 782 lbs , bench pressed 534 lbs , and deadlifted 804 lbs in the 275-pound weight class , which immediately placed him in the top rank in his first national powerlifting appearance . In 1979 at age 25 , he set a world record with a bench press of 622 lbs on the way to winning his first IPF World Powerlifting Championship in Dayton , Ohio . His winning lifts included an 865 lbs squat , the 622 lbs bench press and an 804 lbs deadlift for a 2291 lbs total . He repeated the success in 1983 by first winning the United States Powerlifting Federation ( USPF ) National Powerlifting Championships in July and later the IPF World Championship in November for a second time . He won this IPF World Championship despite two major injuries . He had a severe pectoral injury , from which he never recovered completely , and shortly before the IPF Championships , had torn his hip flexors in the squat . The world record bench press in early 1979 was 612 lbs , held by Lars Hedlund . Kazmaier moved the world record stepwise up from 617.3 lbs in July , 1979 to 622.8 lbs in November 1979 to 633.8 lbs in May , 1980 and finally to 661.4 lbs at the USPF West Georgia Open Powerlifting Championships , held in Columbus , Georgia on January 31 , 1981 . In this competition , Kazmaier officially became the first human to bench press 300 kg ( 661.4 lbs ) ( raw ) in an IPF-sanctioned meet* and recorded his lifetime best three-lift-total of 2425 lbs ( 1100 kg ) , a powerlifting world record that remained unsurpassed for more than a decade . His winning lifts were : a 925.9 lbs ( 420 kg ) squat , the 661.4 lbs ( 300 kg ) bench press and an 837.8 lbs ( 380 kg ) deadlift . The bench press and deadlift were done raw ( unequipped ) , while the squat was performed with wraps and a marathon squat suit . His powerlifting performance is regarded as one of the best of all time . In November 1981 , Kazmaier became one of the few lifters in history to hold world records in three of the four powerlifting events at the same time by setting a new deadlift world record at 402 kg ( 886.7 lbs ) raw in competition . From 1981 onwards Kazmaiers career was affected by multiple muscle tears and injuries , preventing him from setting the bar even higher . He sustained chest , shoulder and triceps injuries , ruling out further records in the bench press . Strongman career . Kazmaier competed in six Worlds Strongest Man contests . In 1979 Worlds Strongest Man , he came in third after leading throughout much of the competition and beating powerlifting icon Don Reinhoudt in the car lift by deadlifting a 2555 lbs car . In the following years , he dominated the competitions in 1980 , 1981 , and 1982 , winning all by a large margin . He was the first man to win the WSM title three times and remains one of only two men ever to win it three times in a row . In his 1980 title win , Kazmaier won five of ten events and tied for first in another . He won the log lift , the engine race , the steel bar bend , the girl squat lift , the silver dollar deadlift , and the final tug of war . The runner-up in the competition , Lars Hedlund , was over 28 points behind . During Kazmaiers title defense at the 1981 Worlds Strongest Man he won the squat event with 969 lbs ( 440 kg ) ( on a smith machine ) for a world record , just after tearing his pectoralis major muscle while bending cold rolled steel bars in the bar bend event before . After this tear , he lost more than one-hundred pounds off his bench press , making his 1983 IPF world championship win all that much more significant . Following his win in the squat he went on to win the silver dollar deadlift with a 940 lbs ( 426.4 kg ) lift . Of 11 events he had five wins , two second places , one third and a fourth . His wins included the log lift , deadlift , squat , loading race and engine race . In the 1982 Worlds Strongest Man competition Kazmaier won the first three events . A notable performance in this WSM was his 1055 lbs silver dollar deadlift . Despite being the reigning champion , the organizers decided not to invite Kazmaier to compete in the following four WSM competitions , with Kazmaier claiming it was because he was too dominant . His absence cleared the way for Kazmaiers main rival , Geoff Capes , to win the title in 1983 . Kazmaier continued to compete in lesser known strongman tournaments , such as the Scottish Power Challenge and the Le Defi Mark Ten International . He returned to the Worlds Strongest Man Contest in 1988 , where he won three of eight events – the log press , the deadlift and the sack race – and took two second places including the truck pull , but he was disqualified for moving his hands in the sausage forward hold , so the time was stopped prematurely . With two events to go , he was leading the field and was the favorite to win the following weight over the bar event , in which a 56 lbs weight has to be thrown over a bar . He was holding the World Record in this event from the Highland Games 1984 with a height of 18 feet 3 inches . The event took place on water for the first time and Bills concern about problems with his orientation on water were borne out . Although he threw the weight at least 3 feet higher than the bar , he failed to get the direction right . So he dropped out at only 15 feet 1 inch . With Kazmaiers closest rival Jón Páll Sigmarsson winning the event with a throw over 15 feet 7 inches , Kazmaier came in overall second to Jón Páll . Kazmaier had defeated Sigmarsson in 1987 at the Le Defi Mark Ten event in Canada , and also prior to WSM in 1988 , at the World Musclepower Classic . In Kazmaiers final WSM appearance at the 1989 Worlds Strongest Man , he severely injured his ankle in the first event and already had a ripped biceps . He came in fourth , directly behind Jón Páll Sigmarsson . Kazmaier was the first man to press the unliftable Thomas Inch dumbbell* and became only the fifth person to lift it above the knee , setting this record on October 13 , 1990 . In addition to WSM contests , Kazmaier also competed in other strongman competitions successfully , such as the Strongbow Strongman Challenge , the Scottish Power Challenge , Le Defi Mark Ten Challenge , the World Muscle Power Championships and the Pure Strength contest . He ended his career as a competitive strongman in 1990 . With three Worlds Strongest Man titles , Kazmaier is one of the most successful competitors in the history of the contest . Strength author David Webster called him the greatest American strength athlete of all time , and a 2008 poll of experts rated him as top superheavyweight lifter of all time and one of the strongest men who ever lived . He was featured in Flex magazine on May 2008 , in which a top ten list of the strongest men in history was published . Kazmaier was voted the third strongest man that ever lived , just behind Mark Henry and Žydrūnas Savickas . Professional wrestling career . Inspired by Jim Thorpe , Kazmaier sought to transfer his talents to other sports , trying out for the NFLs Green Bay Packers in 1981 . He also trained as a wrestler with Verne Gagne and Brad Rheingans , and entered professional wrestling in 1986 , with a WWF match in Calgary , Alberta on November 10 , 1986 defeating David Barbie . During the 1980s , he had wrestled for promotions such as Stampede Wrestling in Canada and Continental Championship Wrestling in America . He would also wrestle for Fighting Network RINGS in Japan in early 1991 . His biggest national exposure came when he debuted for World Championship Wrestling in the summer of 1991 . He received several shots at Lex Lugers WCW World Heavyweight Championship but failed to win the title . He also briefly teamed with Rick Steiner , only to lose to The Enforcers in a tournament final for the WCW World Tag Team Championship . At Halloween Havoc 1991 , in Chattanooga , he beat Oz by submission . At the 1991 Starrcade Battlebowl : The Lethal Lottery , Kazmaier and his partner Jushin Thunder Liger defeated Diamond Dallas Page and Mike Graham in Norfolk , Virginia . While in WCW , Kazmaier also wrestled for New Japan Pro-Wrestling . In NJPW , his theme music was Poundcake by Van Halen . Life after competition . Kazmaier opened a fitness club , Kaz Fitness Center , in Auburn , Alabama in the early 1980s . The gym closed in 2005 . Kazmaier then opened , and continues to operate , S.W.A.T . gym in Opelika , Alabama . Both served as a place for him to train and as headquarters for DynaKaz Inc. , Kazmaiers own exercise equipment import-export company , which markets fitness products worldwide . Upon retiring from active competition in the 1990s , Kazmaier was hired as a co-commentator for the American ESPN broadcast of the annual Worlds Strongest Man competition along with Todd Harris and 2006 Worlds Strongest Man winner Phil Pfister . He also comments in the British broadcast .

In November 1981 , Kazmaier became one of the few lifters in history to hold world records in three of the four powerlifting events at the same time by setting a new deadlift world record at 402 kg ( 886.7 lbs ) raw in competition . From 1981 onwards Kazmaiers career was affected by multiple muscle tears and injuries , preventing him from setting the bar even higher . He sustained chest , shoulder and triceps injuries , ruling out further records in the bench press . Strongman career . Kazmaier competed in six Worlds Strongest Man contests . In 1979 Worlds Strongest Man , he came in third after leading throughout much of the competition and beating powerlifting icon Don Reinhoudt in the car lift by deadlifting a 2555 lbs car . In the following years , he dominated the competitions in 1980 , 1981 , and 1982 , winning all by a large margin . He was the first man to win the WSM title three times and remains one of only two men ever to win it three times in a row . In his 1980 title win , Kazmaier won five of ten events and tied for first in another . He won the log lift , the engine race , the steel bar bend , the girl squat lift , the silver dollar deadlift , and the final tug of war . The runner-up in the competition , Lars Hedlund , was over 28 points behind . During Kazmaiers title defense at the 1981 Worlds Strongest Man he won the squat event with 969 lbs ( 440 kg ) ( on a smith machine ) for a world record , just after tearing his pectoralis major muscle while bending cold rolled steel bars in the bar bend event before . After this tear , he lost more than one-hundred pounds off his bench press , making his 1983 IPF world championship win all that much more significant . Following his win in the squat he went on to win the silver dollar deadlift with a 940 lbs ( 426.4 kg ) lift . Of 11 events he had five wins , two second places , one third and a fourth . His wins included the log lift , deadlift , squat , loading race and engine race . In the 1982 Worlds Strongest Man competition Kazmaier won the first three events . A notable performance in this WSM was his 1055 lbs silver dollar deadlift . Despite being the reigning champion , the organizers decided not to invite Kazmaier to compete in the following four WSM competitions , with Kazmaier claiming it was because he was too dominant . His absence cleared the way for Kazmaiers main rival , Geoff Capes , to win the title in 1983 . Kazmaier continued to compete in lesser known strongman tournaments , such as the Scottish Power Challenge and the Le Defi Mark Ten International . He returned to the Worlds Strongest Man Contest in 1988 , where he won three of eight events – the log press , the deadlift and the sack race – and took two second places including the truck pull , but he was disqualified for moving his hands in the sausage forward hold , so the time was stopped prematurely . With two events to go , he was leading the field and was the favorite to win the following weight over the bar event , in which a 56 lbs weight has to be thrown over a bar . He was holding the World Record in this event from the Highland Games 1984 with a height of 18 feet 3 inches . The event took place on water for the first time and Bills concern about problems with his orientation on water were borne out . Although he threw the weight at least 3 feet higher than the bar , he failed to get the direction right . So he dropped out at only 15 feet 1 inch . With Kazmaiers closest rival Jón Páll Sigmarsson winning the event with a throw over 15 feet 7 inches , Kazmaier came in overall second to Jón Páll . Kazmaier had defeated Sigmarsson in 1987 at the Le Defi Mark Ten event in Canada , and also prior to WSM in 1988 , at the World Musclepower Classic . In Kazmaiers final WSM appearance at the 1989 Worlds Strongest Man , he severely injured his ankle in the first event and already had a ripped biceps . He came in fourth , directly behind Jón Páll Sigmarsson . Kazmaier was the first man to press the unliftable Thomas Inch dumbbell* and became only the fifth person to lift it above the knee , setting this record on October 13 , 1990 . In addition to WSM contests , Kazmaier also competed in other strongman competitions successfully , such as the Strongbow Strongman Challenge , the Scottish Power Challenge , Le Defi Mark Ten Challenge , the World Muscle Power Championships and the Pure Strength contest . He ended his career as a competitive strongman in 1990 . With three Worlds Strongest Man titles , Kazmaier is one of the most successful competitors in the history of the contest . Strength author David Webster called him the greatest American strength athlete of all time , and a 2008 poll of experts rated him as top superheavyweight lifter of all time and one of the strongest men who ever lived . He was featured in Flex magazine on May 2008 , in which a top ten list of the strongest men in history was published . Kazmaier was voted the third strongest man that ever lived , just behind Mark Henry and Žydrūnas Savickas . Professional wrestling career . Inspired by Jim Thorpe , Kazmaier sought to transfer his talents to other sports , trying out for the NFLs Green Bay Packers in 1981 . He also trained as a wrestler with Verne Gagne and Brad Rheingans , and entered professional wrestling in 1986 , with a WWF match in Calgary , Alberta on November 10 , 1986 defeating David Barbie . During the 1980s , he had wrestled for promotions such as Stampede Wrestling in Canada and Continental Championship Wrestling in America . He would also wrestle for Fighting Network RINGS in Japan in early 1991 . His biggest national exposure came when he debuted for World Championship Wrestling in the summer of 1991 . He received several shots at Lex Lugers WCW World Heavyweight Championship but failed to win the title . He also briefly teamed with Rick Steiner , only to lose to The Enforcers in a tournament final for the WCW World Tag Team Championship . At Halloween Havoc 1991 , in Chattanooga , he beat Oz by submission . At the 1991 Starrcade Battlebowl : The Lethal Lottery , Kazmaier and his partner Jushin Thunder Liger defeated Diamond Dallas Page and Mike Graham in Norfolk , Virginia . While in WCW , Kazmaier also wrestled for New Japan Pro-Wrestling . In NJPW , his theme music was Poundcake by Van Halen . Life after competition . Kazmaier opened a fitness club , Kaz Fitness Center , in Auburn , Alabama in the early 1980s . The gym closed in 2005 . Kazmaier then opened , and continues to operate , S.W.A.T . gym in Opelika , Alabama . Both served as a place for him to train and as headquarters for DynaKaz Inc. , Kazmaiers own exercise equipment import-export company , which markets fitness products worldwide . Upon retiring from active competition in the 1990s , Kazmaier was hired as a co-commentator for the American ESPN broadcast of the annual Worlds Strongest Man competition along with Todd Harris and 2006 Worlds Strongest Man winner Phil Pfister . He also comments in the British broadcast . Kazmaier considers his most important contributions to public life to be his work as a motivational speaker for 3D Sports Tech , addressing school and YMCA groups . I can and I will is the message he conveys to inspire young people to lead healthier and more productive lives . Personal life . Bill Kazmaiers nickname is Kaz . He is the youngest child of William Bartholomew and Florence Louise Steinhoff Kazmaier . He had one brother , two sisters , and a half brother . His father owned soda water bottling plants in Burlington and Kenosha , Wisconsin .

Early life . Julia Cagé has a twin sister , Agathe Cagé , who is a technocrat and an advisor to Najat Vallaud-Belkacem . Cagé attended prep school in letters and social sciences at in Marseille . From 2005 to 2010 she and her twin studied at the École normale supérieure of Paris . From 2010 to 2014 she was a doctoral student in economics at Harvard . She received her PhD in economics there in 2014 under Alberto Alesina , Nathan Nunn and Andrei Shleifer . She also defended a thesis at the School for Advanced Studies in the Social Sciences on Essays in the Political Economy of Information and Taxation , under the direction of Daniel Cohen . In 2014 she married the economist Thomas Piketty . Career . Since July 2014 , Julia Cagé has been an assistant professor of Economics at Sciences Po Paris . In 2018 , she became the Co-director of the Laboratory for Interdisciplinary Evaluation of Public Policies ( LIEPP ) Evaluation of Democracy research group . Publications . Saving the media . In February 2015 , Julia Cagé published Saving the media : Capitalism , crowdfunding and democracy in French . By the end of 2016 , it had been published in 10 other languages . Nonprofit Media Organization ( NMO ) . This book reviews existing models for funding the media , evaluates the strengths and weaknesses of each , and proposes a new structure for saving the media , which she calls a Nonprofit Media Organization ( NMO ) . The fundamental problem with existing media organizations is that they either - have not been self-sustaining or - have such inherent conflicts of interest that their coverage becomes a threat to democracy . Her NMO is a charitable foundation but with democratic governance , limiting the power of the major donors while encouraging crowdfunding . Discussion . This book was widely reviewed in the mainstream French media : Les Échos , Libération , Télérama , Les Inrocks , La Croix , Mediapart , Alternatives économiques , France Culture , Europe 1 , France 24 and France inter . By 5 November 2016 it was available in translation into 10 other languages : English , Chinese , German , Italian , Japanese , Korean , Portuguese , Serbian , Spanish , and Turkish ; its now also available in Romanian . In this book , she proposes a new model for organizing media : a nonprofit media organization ( NMO ) , which combines aspects of both a joint-stock company and a foundation . The goal is to allow sharing and democratic renewal of power and funding . Readers , journalists and other , crowdfunders , would see their contributions in capital recognized by an increase in voting rights at the expense of the power of the largest shareholders . Media would thus benefit from open donations and reductions in taxes . Cagé claims these will replace the current media subsidies , which are often opaque and ineffective , with a neutral , transparent and citizen support system . Éric Fottorino claimed that this model will not likely work well for large media , which he believes will not function well without shareholders , who will demand influence in proportion to their investment . This book is based on Cagés analysis of the historical evolution of the media and their modes of governance and financing in Europe and the United States since the beginning of the twentieth century . This includes previous work on the impact of sometimes excessive competition between media organization , focusing especially on the experience of the regional daily press in France since 1945 . This book received the 2016 prize for a book discussing research in the media by the ( French journalism foundation ) . Globalization and financing public goods . In a 2012 article written with Lucie Gadenne , Cagé showed that trade liberalization in developing countries generally “led to larger and longer-lived decreases in total tax revenues in developing countries since the 1970s than in rich countries in the 19th and early 20th centuries . The fall in total tax revenues lasts more than ten years in half the developing countries in our sample.” This led to serious reductions in the funds available for public goods indispensable for economic growth and development : education , health , infrastructure , etc . Media in Africa . Work coauthored by Valeria Rueda studied the long-term consequences of the introduction of printing presses on the development of media in different African countries . They studied the impact of protestant missions in Africa based on their locations in 1903 , some of which had their own printing presses to print bibles and educational materials . Cagé and Rueda found that “within regions close to missions , proximity to a printing press is associated with higher newspaper readership , trust , education , and political participation.” They also noted that missions without printing presses failed to show comparable improvements . This extended her 2014 analysis of specific issues and challenges encountered in development specific to Africa , noting that this process in Africa may have been different from the comparable experience in other regions of the world . Development aid , international trade and reputations of countries . In a series of articles written between 2009 and 2014 , Cagé argued that development assistance is more effective in countries with greater transparency of information . She said that international aid organizations fail to give adequate weight to the quality of local media and democratic processes . In 2015 Cagé and Dorothée Rouzet documented how national brands can have a substantial impact on international trade . For this they study the coverage of different countries in the media of importing countries . This work displayed a new way to understand the importance of information and credible media for economic development . Tax revenues and the fiscal cost of trade liberalization , 1792–2006 . In August 2018 , Julia Cage and Lucie Gadenne wrote an article that looked on the impact of trade liberations of government revenues . They looked into how countries recovered their tax revenues that were lost by liberalizing trade via other sources of revenue . They found that trade liberalization led to larger and longer declines in tax revenues in developing countries versus today’s ( 19th and 20th century ) rich countries . Their results implied that a decrease in trade tax affected the government’s ability to provide public services in developing countries in a negative way . Politics . Supported François Hollande for President of France in 2012 . In the French presidential election of 2012 , Cagé was one of nine economists publicly supporting the candidacy of François Hollande due to his platform , especially regarding economic growth and employment . Supported Benoît Hamon for President of France in 2017 . In January 2016 , in the run-up to the presidential election in 2017 , Cagé was one of eleven initiators of a call for primary on the left . On 24 January 2017 she coauthored a call to support Benoît Hamon for the 2017 citizens primary , entitled For a credible and bold universal income . La Tribune tweeted that these economists do not support a real universal income . Cagé replied that La Tribune was hallucinating , and We ( Saez , Chancel , Landais... ) wrote a call to support a universal income . After the second round of the primary and the election of Benoît Hamon , Thomas Piketty provided more details behind the terms of payment of the proposal for a basic income supported by the call previously issued by him , Cagé , and others . Cagé became Hamons chief economist . Other activities . In November 2015 , Cagé was named as one of five “qualified personalities” on the Board of Directors of Agence France-Presse . She is also a member of the French ( similar to the Council of Economic Advisors in the U.S. ) . She has been a columnist for Alternatives économiques and France Culture and the show Le monde daprès sur France 3 [ The world according to France 3 ] . |

Cagé and Rueda found that “within regions close to missions , proximity to a printing press is associated with higher newspaper readership , trust , education , and political participation.” They also noted that missions without printing presses failed to show comparable improvements . This extended her 2014 analysis of specific issues and challenges encountered in development specific to Africa , noting that this process in Africa may have been different from the comparable experience in other regions of the world . Development aid , international trade and reputations of countries . In a series of articles written between 2009 and 2014 , Cagé argued that development assistance is more effective in countries with greater transparency of information . She said that international aid organizations fail to give adequate weight to the quality of local media and democratic processes . In 2015 Cagé and Dorothée Rouzet documented how national brands can have a substantial impact on international trade . For this they study the coverage of different countries in the media of importing countries . This work displayed a new way to understand the importance of information and credible media for economic development . Tax revenues and the fiscal cost of trade liberalization , 1792–2006 . In August 2018 , Julia Cage and Lucie Gadenne wrote an article that looked on the impact of trade liberations of government revenues . They looked into how countries recovered their tax revenues that were lost by liberalizing trade via other sources of revenue . They found that trade liberalization led to larger and longer declines in tax revenues in developing countries versus today’s ( 19th and 20th century ) rich countries . Their results implied that a decrease in trade tax affected the government’s ability to provide public services in developing countries in a negative way . Politics . Supported François Hollande for President of France in 2012 . In the French presidential election of 2012 , Cagé was one of nine economists publicly supporting the candidacy of François Hollande due to his platform , especially regarding economic growth and employment . Supported Benoît Hamon for President of France in 2017 . In January 2016 , in the run-up to the presidential election in 2017 , Cagé was one of eleven initiators of a call for primary on the left . On 24 January 2017 she coauthored a call to support Benoît Hamon for the 2017 citizens primary , entitled For a credible and bold universal income . La Tribune tweeted that these economists do not support a real universal income . Cagé replied that La Tribune was hallucinating , and We ( Saez , Chancel , Landais... ) wrote a call to support a universal income . After the second round of the primary and the election of Benoît Hamon , Thomas Piketty provided more details behind the terms of payment of the proposal for a basic income supported by the call previously issued by him , Cagé , and others . Cagé became Hamons chief economist . Other activities . In November 2015 , Cagé was named as one of five “qualified personalities” on the Board of Directors of Agence France-Presse .

Early life . Julia Cagé has a twin sister , Agathe Cagé , who is a technocrat and an advisor to Najat Vallaud-Belkacem . Cagé attended prep school in letters and social sciences at in Marseille . From 2005 to 2010 she and her twin studied at the École normale supérieure of Paris . From 2010 to 2014 she was a doctoral student in economics at Harvard . She received her PhD in economics there in 2014 under Alberto Alesina , Nathan Nunn and Andrei Shleifer . She also defended a thesis at the School for Advanced Studies in the Social Sciences on Essays in the Political Economy of Information and Taxation , under the direction of Daniel Cohen . In 2014 she married the economist Thomas Piketty . Career . Since July 2014 , Julia Cagé has been an assistant professor of Economics at Sciences Po Paris . In 2018 , she became the Co-director of the Laboratory for Interdisciplinary Evaluation of Public Policies ( LIEPP ) Evaluation of Democracy research group . Publications . Saving the media . In February 2015 , Julia Cagé published Saving the media : Capitalism , crowdfunding and democracy in French . By the end of 2016 , it had been published in 10 other languages . Nonprofit Media Organization ( NMO ) . This book reviews existing models for funding the media , evaluates the strengths and weaknesses of each , and proposes a new structure for saving the media , which she calls a Nonprofit Media Organization ( NMO ) . The fundamental problem with existing media organizations is that they either - have not been self-sustaining or - have such inherent conflicts of interest that their coverage becomes a threat to democracy . Her NMO is a charitable foundation but with democratic governance , limiting the power of the major donors while encouraging crowdfunding . Discussion . This book was widely reviewed in the mainstream French media : Les Échos , Libération , Télérama , Les Inrocks , La Croix , Mediapart , Alternatives économiques , France Culture , Europe 1 , France 24 and France inter . By 5 November 2016 it was available in translation into 10 other languages : English , Chinese , German , Italian , Japanese , Korean , Portuguese , Serbian , Spanish , and Turkish ; its now also available in Romanian . In this book , she proposes a new model for organizing media : a nonprofit media organization ( NMO ) , which combines aspects of both a joint-stock company and a foundation . The goal is to allow sharing and democratic renewal of power and funding . Readers , journalists and other , crowdfunders , would see their contributions in capital recognized by an increase in voting rights at the expense of the power of the largest shareholders . Media would thus benefit from open donations and reductions in taxes . Cagé claims these will replace the current media subsidies , which are often opaque and ineffective , with a neutral , transparent and citizen support system . Éric Fottorino claimed that this model will not likely work well for large media , which he believes will not function well without shareholders , who will demand influence in proportion to their investment . This book is based on Cagés analysis of the historical evolution of the media and their modes of governance and financing in Europe and the United States since the beginning of the twentieth century . This includes previous work on the impact of sometimes excessive competition between media organization , focusing especially on the experience of the regional daily press in France since 1945 . This book received the 2016 prize for a book discussing research in the media by the ( French journalism foundation ) . Globalization and financing public goods . In a 2012 article written with Lucie Gadenne , Cagé showed that trade liberalization in developing countries generally “led to larger and longer-lived decreases in total tax revenues in developing countries since the 1970s than in rich countries in the 19th and early 20th centuries . The fall in total tax revenues lasts more than ten years in half the developing countries in our sample.” This led to serious reductions in the funds available for public goods indispensable for economic growth and development : education , health , infrastructure , etc .

"Northern Territory Legislative Assembly"
] | easy | Which position did Terry Mills (Australian politician) hold from Jul 1999 to Aug 2012? | /wiki/Terry_Mills_(Australian_politician)#P39#0 | Terry Mills ( Australian politician ) Terence Kennedy Mills ( born 22 December 1957 ) is an Australian politician who is the founder and leader of the Territory Alliance . He served as Chief Minister of the Northern Territory from 2012 to 2013 as a member of the Country Liberal Party ( CLP ) . Mills , who had been the principal of a Christian school , was first elected to the Northern Territory Legislative Assembly in 1999 , representing the seat of Blain . He was CLP leader and leader of the opposition from 2003 to 2005 , but was replaced before contesting an election . He returned to the leadership in 2008 , gaining seven seats at the 2008 election and then forming a majority government after the 2012 election . He spent less than a year as chief minister before being replaced by Adam Giles following a leadership spill . Mills resigned from the Legislative Assembly in 2014 , but successfully recontested his former seat at the 2016 election as an independent . In 2019 he announced the formation of a new party , the Territory Alliance . He was joined by two other incumbent MLAs in early 2020 , allowing the Alliance to surpass the CLP as the second-largest party in the Legislative Assembly . Mills lost his seat at the 2020 general election . Early life . Mills was born in Geraldton , Western Australia , and lived in the agricultural town of Mullewa for a time with his parents , Bernard and Patricia . He was educated at St Patricks College , Geraldton ( now Nagle Catholic College ) , before moving to Perth and gaining a Diploma of Education at the Western Australian College of Advanced Education . In 1983 , he commenced teaching at a private school in Perth , and in the same year married Roslyn Matilda Serich . They had one son and one daughter . In 1989 , the family moved to the Northern Territory , where Mills became principal of a Christian school . Political career . Mills joined the Country Liberal Party in the 1990s , and in a 1999 by-election , was elected to the seat of Blain in the Northern Territory Legislative Assembly . Initially , he served as Chairman of Committees . In 2001 , following the defeat of the Country Liberal government , he assumed the shadow portfolios of Youth Affairs , Education , Employment and Training , and Sport and Recreation . On 14 November 2003 , he replaced Denis Burke as Leader of the Opposition , and assumed the portfolios of Shadow Treasurer , Asian Relations and Trade , Territory Development , Railways , Racing and Gaming . He resigned on 4 February 2005 to be replaced by Burke , who subsequently lost the 2005 election and his own seat . Mills himself suffered a 9.5 percent swing amid the massive Labor wave that swept through the Territory . He was left as the only CLP member from Palmerston , an area that has historically been a CLP stronghold . He was the only CLP member holding a Darwin-area seat in the Legislative Assembly , and one of only two CLP members from the Top End . Mills served as deputy opposition leader to Jodeen Carney for three years . On 29 January 2008 , however , Mills asked Carney if she was willing to swap posts with him , with Mills taking over as leader and Carney electing to become a back bencher . Carney turned the proposal down and instead called for a leadership spill . The vote was tied at two votes for Carney and two votes for Mills . Carney , taking a cue from the action of former Australian prime minister John Gorton in 1971 , announced that a tie vote was not a vote of confidence and resigned . Mills then took the leadership unopposed on a second vote . At the August 2008 election , the CLP increased its representation to 11 seats ( from four in the old parliament ) , regaining much of what it had lost in its severe beating of three years earlier . This rose further in 2012 when Labor-turned-independent MP Alison Anderson , with Mills encouragement , joined the CLP . Chief Minister . At the 2012 general election , the CLP won government on a four-seat swing , primarily due to a large swing in remote Aboriginal areas which had historically supported Labor . Mills was sworn in as Chief Minister of the Northern Territory on 29 August 2012 . When Mills was in opposition in 2011 , he stated his support for an audit of the Northern Territory finances , saying that [ an audit ] will be the start of a new era of transparency in government expenditure . However , after coming into power he changed his mind on the issue . In February 2013 , following a large swing to Labor in the Wanguri by-election , canvassing took place within the CLP to gauge support for a challenge to Mills from his Attorney-General , John Elferink . Lacking the support of key MLAs , Elferink ruled out a challenge and offered his resignation to Mills , which was declined . In early March , Mills was unsuccessfully challenged by Health Minister Dave Tollner , who was sacked from Mills cabinet after a six-and-a-half-hour party meeting . A little over one week later , on 13 March 2013 , Mills , who was overseas at the time , was ousted by Transport Minister Adam Giles in an 11–5 vote of his partys parliamentary caucus . Following the leadership change , Tollner was promoted from the back bench to Deputy Chief Minister . Mills could have refused to resign as chief minister , however , was not aware of the procedures surrounding handing in commission of office . Resignation . Mills resigned from Parliament on 20 February 2014 , which triggered the 2014 Blain by-election . Giles appointed Mills as the Territorys commissioner to Indonesia and ASEAN . When Giles was nearly ousted as Chief Minister by Mills former deputy , Willem Westra van Holthe , in February 2015 , Mills tweeted a picture of himself laughing in delight , prompting Giles to sack him . 2016 independent comeback . Mills announced on 7 August 2016 that he had resigned from the CLP and would seek to regain his former seat of Blain as an independent at the 2016 election . He likened the Giles government to a car accident , saying , At the scene of an accident , one has a moral obligation to render assistance . Mills finished six points behind Labor candidate and former federal MP Damian Hale on the primary vote , pushing the CLP into third place . He narrowly overtook Hale on CLP preferences , allowing him to return to the legislature after a nearly two-year absence . Mills joined his original Deputy Chief Minister , Robyn Lambley , on the crossbench ; Lambley had left the CLP in 2015 , but easily won reelection as an independent . Ironically , at the same election at which Mills retook his old seat as an independent , the man who had rolled him as Chief Minister , Giles , became the second Majority Leader/Chief Minister to lose his own seat . In October 2018 Mills announced the planned formation of the North Australia Party . He planned to become the opposition in the Northern Territory parliament after the collapse of the CLP vote left them with only 2 members in parliament . Claim to Opposition Leadership . On 18 March 2020 , Mills claimed to be the Leader of the Opposition , after Territory Alliance became the largest non-government party when former CLP and then independent MLA Robyn Lambley joined the party . On 24 March 2020 , Mills presented a Shadow Ministry and was referred to as Opposition Leader by Government MLAs , but his claim to Opposition status had not been formalised by the Legislative Assembly . Later that day , CLP leader Lia Finocchiaro successfully moved a motion to declare the Opposition Leadership vacant and hold a ballot to determine it . Most Labor members abstained on voting in the ballot , and Finocchiaro won the ballot 5 votes to 3 , and was confirmed as Opposition Leader , with most Labor MLAs present not voting . Despite Territory Alliance being denied official Opposition status , Mills as Territory Alliance leader took part in the leaders debate with Finocchiaro and Labor Chief Minister Michael Gunner at the 2020 election . This marks the first time anywhere in Australia that a leaders debate included a third participant . At the 2020 election , Mills was pushed into third place on the primary vote and was eliminated . However , his preference flowed about 62% to the CLP and 38% to the ALP which was enough to elect Labors Mark Turner who had led the field on the primary vote . |

Mills joined his original Deputy Chief Minister , Robyn Lambley , on the crossbench ; Lambley had left the CLP in 2015 , but easily won reelection as an independent . Ironically , at the same election at which Mills retook his old seat as an independent , the man who had rolled him as Chief Minister , Giles , became the second Majority Leader/Chief Minister to lose his own seat . In October 2018 Mills announced the planned formation of the North Australia Party . He planned to become the opposition in the Northern Territory parliament after the collapse of the CLP vote left them with only 2 members in parliament . Claim to Opposition Leadership . On 18 March 2020 , Mills claimed to be the Leader of the Opposition , after Territory Alliance became the largest non-government party when former CLP and then independent MLA Robyn Lambley joined the party . On 24 March 2020 , Mills presented a Shadow Ministry and was referred to as Opposition Leader by Government MLAs , but his claim to Opposition status had not been formalised by the Legislative Assembly . Later that day , CLP leader Lia Finocchiaro successfully moved a motion to declare the Opposition Leadership vacant and hold a ballot to determine it . Most Labor members abstained on voting in the ballot , and Finocchiaro won the ballot 5 votes to 3 , and was confirmed as Opposition Leader , with most Labor MLAs present not voting . Despite Territory Alliance being denied official Opposition status , Mills as Territory Alliance leader took part in the leaders debate with Finocchiaro and Labor Chief Minister Michael Gunner at the 2020 election . This marks the first time anywhere in Australia that a leaders debate included a third participant . At the 2020 election , Mills was pushed into third place on the primary vote and was eliminated . However , his preference flowed about 62% to the CLP and 38% to the ALP which was enough to elect Labors Mark Turner who had led the field on the primary vote . |

He was the first chancellor of the University of Ljubljana . Life . Plemelj was born in the village of Bled near Bled Castle in Austria-Hungary ( now Slovenia ) ; he died in Ljubljana , Yugoslavia ( now Slovenia ) . His father , Urban , a carpenter and crofter , died when Josip was only a year old . His mother Marija , née , found bringing up the family alone very hard , but she was able to send her son to school in Ljubljana where Plemelj studied from 1886 to 1894 . Due to a bench thrown into Tivoli Pond by him or his friends , he could not attend the school after he finished the fourth class and had to pass the final exam privately . After leaving and obtaining the necessary examination results he went to the University of Vienna in 1894 where he had applied to Faculty of Arts to study mathematics , physics and astronomy . His professors in Vienna were von Escherich for mathematical analysis , Gegenbauer and Mertens for arithmetic and algebra , Weiss for astronomy , Stefans student Boltzmann for physics . In May 1898 , Plemelj presented his doctoral thesis under Escherichs tutelage entitled Über lineare homogene Differentialgleichungen mit eindeutigen periodischen Koeffizienten ( Linear Homogeneous Differential Equations with Uniform Periodical Coefficients ) . He continued with his study in Berlin ( 1899/1900 ) under the German mathematicians Frobenius and Fuchs and in Göttingen ( 1900/1901 ) under Klein and Hilbert . In April 1902 he became a private senior lecturer at the University of Vienna . In 1906 he was appointed assistant at the Technical University of Vienna . In 1907 he became associate professor and in 1908 full professor of mathematics at the University of Chernivtsi ( Ukrainian : Чернівці , Russian : Черновцы ) , Ukraine . From 1912 to 1913 he was dean of this faculty . In 1917 his political views led him to be forcibly ejected by the government and resettled in Moravia . After the First World War he became a member of the University Commission under the Slovene Provincial Government and helped establish the first Slovene university at Ljubljana , and was elected its first chancellor . In the same year he was appointed professor of mathematics at the Faculty of Arts . After the Second World War he joined the Faculty of Natural Science and Technology ( FNT ) . He retired in 1957 after having lectured in mathematics for 40 years . Earliest contributions . Plemelj had shown his great gift for mathematics early in elementary school . He mastered the whole of the high school syllabus by the beginning of the fourth year and began to tutor students for their graduation examinations . At that time he discovered alone series for sin x and cos x . Actually he found a series for cyclometric function arccos x and after that he just inverted this series and then guessed a principle for coefficients . Yet he did not have a proof for that . Plemelj had great joy for a difficult constructional tasks from geometry . From his high school days originates an elementary problem — his later construction of regular sevenfold polygon inscribed in a circle otherwise exactly and not approximately with simple solution as an angle trisection which was yet not known in those days and which necessarily leads to the old Indian or Babylonian approximate construction . He started to occupy himself with mathematics in fourth and fifth class of high school . Beside in mathematics he was interested also in natural science and especially astronomy . He studied celestial mechanics already at high school . He liked observing the stars . His eyesight was so sharp he could see the planet Venus even in the daytime . Research . Plemeljs main research interests were the theory of linear differential equations , integral equations , potential theory , the theory of analytic functions , and functional analysis . Plemelj encountered integral equations while still a student at Göttingen , when the Swedish professor Erik Holmgren gave a lecture on the work of his fellow countryman Fredholm on linear integral equations of the 1st and 2nd kind . Spurred on by Hilbert , Göttingen mathematicians attacked this new area of research and Plemelj was one of the first to publish original results on the question , applying the theory of integral equations to the study of harmonic functions in potential theory . His most important work in potential theory is summarised in his 1911 book Potentialtheoretische Untersuchungen ( Studies in Potential Theory ) , which received the Jablonowski Society award in Leipzig ( 1500 marks ) , and the Richard Lieben award from the University of Vienna ( 2000 crowns ) for the most outstanding work in the field of pure and applied mathematics written by any kind of Austrian mathematician in the previous three years . His most original contribution is the elementary solution he provided for the Riemann–Hilbert problem f = g f about the existence of a differential equation with given monodromy group . The solution , published in his 1908 article Riemannian classes of functions with given monodromy group , rests on three formulas that now carry his name , which connect the values taken by a holomorphic function at the boundary of an arc Γ : These formulas are variously called the Plemelj formulae , the Sokhotsky-Plemelj formulae , or sometimes ( mainly in German literature ) the Plemelj-Sokhotsky Formulae , after the Russian mathematician Yulian Vasilievich Sokhotski ( Юлиан Карл Васильевич Сохоцкий ) ( 1842–1927 ) . From his methods on solving the Riemann problem had developed the theory of singular integral equations ( MSC ( 2000 ) 45-Exx ) which was entertained above all by the Russian school at the head of Nikoloz Muskhelishvili ( Николай Иванович Мусхелишвили ) ( 1891–1976 ) . Also important are Plemeljs contributions to the theory of analytic functions in solving the problem of uniformization of algebraic functions , contributions on formulation of the theorem of analytic extension of designs and treatises in algebra and in number theory . In 1912 , Plemelj published a very simple proof of the special case of Fermats last theorem where the exponent , n , is 5 . More difficult proofs of this case were first given by Dirichlet in 1828 and Legendre in 1830 . His arrival in Ljubljana in 1919 was very important for development of mathematics in Slovenia . As a good teacher he had raised several generations of mathematicians and engineers . His most famous student is Ivan Vidav . After the Second World War Slovenska akademija znanosti in umetnosti ( Slovene Academy of Sciences and Arts ) ( SAZU ) had published his three-year course of lectures for students of mathematics : Teorija analitičnih funkcij ( The Theory of Analytic Functions ) , ( SAZU , Ljubljana 1953 , pp XVI+516 ) , Diferencialne in integralske enačbe . Teorija in uporaba ( Differential and Integral Equations . Theory and Application ) . Plemelj found a formula for a sum of normal derivatives of one-layered potential in the internal or external region . He was pleased also with algebra and number theory , but he had published only few contributions from these fields – for example a book entitled Algebra in teorija števil ( Algebra and Number Theory ; SAZU , Ljubljana 1962 , pp . xiv + 278 ) which was published abroad as his last work Problemi v smislu Riemanna in Kleina ( Problems in the Sense of Riemann and Klein ; edition and translation by J . R . M . Radok , Interscience Tract in Pure and Applied Mathematics , No . 16 , Interscience Publishers : John Wiley & Sons , New York , London , Sydney 1964 , pp VII+175 ) . This work deals with questions which were of his most interests and examinations . His bibliography includes 33 units , from which 30 are scientific treatises and had been published among the others in a magazines such as : Monatshefte für Mathematik und Physik , Sitzungsberichte der kaiserlichen Akademie der Wissenschaften ; in Vienna , Jahresbericht der deutschen Mathematikervereinigung , Gesellschaft deutscher Naturforscher und Ärzte in Verhandlungen , Bulletin des Sciences Mathematiques , Obzornik za matematiko in fiziko and Publications mathematiques de lUniversite de Belgrade . When French mathematician Charles Émile Picard denoted Plemeljs works as deux excellents memoires , Plemelj became known in the mathematical world . Plemelj was a regular member of the SAZU since its foundation in 1938 , corresponding member of the JAZU ( Yugoslav Academy of Sciences and Arts ) in Zagreb , Croatia since 1923 , corresponding member of the SANU ( Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts ) in Belgrade since 1930 ( 1931 ) . In 1954 he received the highest award for research in Slovenia , the Prešeren award . The same year he was elected for corresponding member of Bavarian Academy of Sciences in Munich . In 1963 , for his 90th anniversary , University of Ljubljana granted him title of the honorary doctor . Plemelj was first teacher of mathematics at Slovene university and 1949 became first honorary member of ZDMFAJ , ( Yugoslav Union of societies of mathematicians , physicists and astronomers ) . He left his villa in Bled to the DMFA where today is his memorial room . Plemelj did not do extra preparation for lectures ; he didnt have any notes . He used to say that he thought over the lecture subject on the way from his home in Gradišče to the University . Students are said to have got the impression that he was creating teaching material on the spot and that they were witnessing the formation of something new . He was writing formulae on the table beautifully although they were composited from Greek , Latin or Gothic letters . He requested the same from students . They had to write distinctly . Plemelj is said to have had a very refined ear for languages and created a solid base for the development of Slovene mathematical terminology . He had accustomed students for a clear and logical phraseology . For example , he would become angry if they used the word rabiti to use instead of the word potrebovati to need . For this reason he said : The engineer who does not know mathematics never needs it . But if he knows it , he uses it frequently . |

In the same year he was appointed professor of mathematics at the Faculty of Arts . After the Second World War he joined the Faculty of Natural Science and Technology ( FNT ) . He retired in 1957 after having lectured in mathematics for 40 years . Earliest contributions . Plemelj had shown his great gift for mathematics early in elementary school . He mastered the whole of the high school syllabus by the beginning of the fourth year and began to tutor students for their graduation examinations . At that time he discovered alone series for sin x and cos x . Actually he found a series for cyclometric function arccos x and after that he just inverted this series and then guessed a principle for coefficients . Yet he did not have a proof for that . Plemelj had great joy for a difficult constructional tasks from geometry . From his high school days originates an elementary problem — his later construction of regular sevenfold polygon inscribed in a circle otherwise exactly and not approximately with simple solution as an angle trisection which was yet not known in those days and which necessarily leads to the old Indian or Babylonian approximate construction . He started to occupy himself with mathematics in fourth and fifth class of high school . Beside in mathematics he was interested also in natural science and especially astronomy . He studied celestial mechanics already at high school . He liked observing the stars . His eyesight was so sharp he could see the planet Venus even in the daytime . Research . Plemeljs main research interests were the theory of linear differential equations , integral equations , potential theory , the theory of analytic functions , and functional analysis . Plemelj encountered integral equations while still a student at Göttingen , when the Swedish professor Erik Holmgren gave a lecture on the work of his fellow countryman Fredholm on linear integral equations of the 1st and 2nd kind . Spurred on by Hilbert , Göttingen mathematicians attacked this new area of research and Plemelj was one of the first to publish original results on the question , applying the theory of integral equations to the study of harmonic functions in potential theory . His most important work in potential theory is summarised in his 1911 book Potentialtheoretische Untersuchungen ( Studies in Potential Theory ) , which received the Jablonowski Society award in Leipzig ( 1500 marks ) , and the Richard Lieben award from the University of Vienna ( 2000 crowns ) for the most outstanding work in the field of pure and applied mathematics written by any kind of Austrian mathematician in the previous three years . His most original contribution is the elementary solution he provided for the Riemann–Hilbert problem f = g f about the existence of a differential equation with given monodromy group . The solution , published in his 1908 article Riemannian classes of functions with given monodromy group , rests on three formulas that now carry his name , which connect the values taken by a holomorphic function at the boundary of an arc Γ : These formulas are variously called the Plemelj formulae , the Sokhotsky-Plemelj formulae , or sometimes ( mainly in German literature ) the Plemelj-Sokhotsky Formulae , after the Russian mathematician Yulian Vasilievich Sokhotski ( Юлиан Карл Васильевич Сохоцкий ) ( 1842–1927 ) . From his methods on solving the Riemann problem had developed the theory of singular integral equations ( MSC ( 2000 ) 45-Exx ) which was entertained above all by the Russian school at the head of Nikoloz Muskhelishvili ( Николай Иванович Мусхелишвили ) ( 1891–1976 ) . Also important are Plemeljs contributions to the theory of analytic functions in solving the problem of uniformization of algebraic functions , contributions on formulation of the theorem of analytic extension of designs and treatises in algebra and in number theory . In 1912 , Plemelj published a very simple proof of the special case of Fermats last theorem where the exponent , n , is 5 . More difficult proofs of this case were first given by Dirichlet in 1828 and Legendre in 1830 . His arrival in Ljubljana in 1919 was very important for development of mathematics in Slovenia . As a good teacher he had raised several generations of mathematicians and engineers . His most famous student is Ivan Vidav . After the Second World War Slovenska akademija znanosti in umetnosti ( Slovene Academy of Sciences and Arts ) ( SAZU ) had published his three-year course of lectures for students of mathematics : Teorija analitičnih funkcij ( The Theory of Analytic Functions ) , ( SAZU , Ljubljana 1953 , pp XVI+516 ) , Diferencialne in integralske enačbe . Teorija in uporaba ( Differential and Integral Equations . Theory and Application ) . Plemelj found a formula for a sum of normal derivatives of one-layered potential in the internal or external region . He was pleased also with algebra and number theory , but he had published only few contributions from these fields – for example a book entitled Algebra in teorija števil ( Algebra and Number Theory ; SAZU , Ljubljana 1962 , pp . xiv + 278 ) which was published abroad as his last work Problemi v smislu Riemanna in Kleina ( Problems in the Sense of Riemann and Klein ; edition and translation by J . R . M . Radok , Interscience Tract in Pure and Applied Mathematics , No . 16 , Interscience Publishers : John Wiley & Sons , New York , London , Sydney 1964 , pp VII+175 ) . This work deals with questions which were of his most interests and examinations . His bibliography includes 33 units , from which 30 are scientific treatises and had been published among the others in a magazines such as : Monatshefte für Mathematik und Physik , Sitzungsberichte der kaiserlichen Akademie der Wissenschaften ; in Vienna , Jahresbericht der deutschen Mathematikervereinigung , Gesellschaft deutscher Naturforscher und Ärzte in Verhandlungen , Bulletin des Sciences Mathematiques , Obzornik za matematiko in fiziko and Publications mathematiques de lUniversite de Belgrade . When French mathematician Charles Émile Picard denoted Plemeljs works as deux excellents memoires , Plemelj became known in the mathematical world . Plemelj was a regular member of the SAZU since its foundation in 1938 , corresponding member of the JAZU ( Yugoslav Academy of Sciences and Arts ) in Zagreb , Croatia since 1923 , corresponding member of the SANU ( Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts ) in Belgrade since 1930 ( 1931 ) . In 1954 he received the highest award for research in Slovenia , the Prešeren award . The same year he was elected for corresponding member of Bavarian Academy of Sciences in Munich . In 1963 , for his 90th anniversary , University of Ljubljana granted him title of the honorary doctor . Plemelj was first teacher of mathematics at Slovene university and 1949 became first honorary member of ZDMFAJ , ( Yugoslav Union of societies of mathematicians , physicists and astronomers ) . He left his villa in Bled to the DMFA where today is his memorial room . Plemelj did not do extra preparation for lectures ; he didnt have any notes . He used to say that he thought over the lecture subject on the way from his home in Gradišče to the University . Students are said to have got the impression that he was creating teaching material on the spot and that they were witnessing the formation of something new . He was writing formulae on the table beautifully although they were composited from Greek , Latin or Gothic letters . He requested the same from students . They had to write distinctly . Plemelj is said to have had a very refined ear for languages and created a solid base for the development of Slovene mathematical terminology . He had accustomed students for a clear and logical phraseology . For example , he would become angry if they used the word rabiti to use instead of the word potrebovati to need . For this reason he said : The engineer who does not know mathematics never needs it . But if he knows it , he uses it frequently . |
