pos: FC Barcelona Futbol Club Barcelona ( -LSB- fubˈbɔɫ ˈkɫub bərsəˈɫonə -RSB- ) , commonly known as Barcelona and familiarly as Barça , is a professional football club based in Barcelona , Catalonia , Spain .   Founded in 1899 by a group of Swiss , English and Catalan footballers led by Joan Gamper , the club has become a symbol of Catalan culture and Catalanism , hence the motto `` Més que un club '' ( `` More than a club '' ) . Unlike many other football clubs , the supporters own and operate Barcelona . It is the second most valuable sports team in the world , worth $ 3.56 billion , and the world 's second richest football club in terms of revenue , with an annual turnover of $ 560.8 million . The official Barcelona anthem is the `` Cant del Barça '' , written by Jaume Picas and Josep Maria Espinàs .   Domestically , Barcelona has won 24 La Liga , 29 Copa del Rey , 12 Supercopa de España , 3 Copa Eva Duarte and 2 Copa de la Liga trophies , as well as being the record holder for the latter four competitions . In international club football , Barcelona has won twenty European and World titles -- four UEFA Champions League titles and one European Cup , a record four UEFA Cup Winners ' Cup , a shared record five UEFA Super Cup , a record three Inter-Cities Fairs Cup and a record three FIFA Club World Cup . Barcelona was ranked first in the IFFHS Club World Ranking for 1997 , 2009 , 2011 , 2012 and 2015 and currently occupies the third position on the UEFA club rankings . The club has a long-standing rivalry with Real Madrid ; matches between the two teams are referred to as El Clásico .   Barcelona is one of the most widely supported teams in the world , and the club has the largest social media following in the world among sports teams . Barcelona players have won a record number of Ballon d'Or awards ( 11 ) , with recipients including Johan Cruyff , as well as a record number of FIFA World Player of the Year awards ( 7 ) , with winners including Ronaldo , Romário and Ronaldinho . In 2010 , three players who came through the club 's youth academy ( Lionel Messi , Andrés Iniesta and Xavi ) were chosen as the three best players in the world in the FIFA Ballon d'Or awards , an unprecedented feat for players from the same football school .   Barcelona is one of three founding members of the Primera División that have never been relegated from the top division , along with Athletic Bilbao and Real Madrid . In 2009 , Barcelona became the first Spanish club to win the continental treble consisting of La Liga , Copa del Rey , and the UEFA Champions League , and also became the first football club to win six out of six competitions in a single year , completing the sextuple in also winning the Spanish Super Cup , UEFA Super Cup and FIFA Club World Cup . In 2011 , the club became European champions again and won five trophies . This Barcelona team , which won 14 trophies in just 4 years under Pep Guardiola , is considered by some in the sport to be the greatest team of all time . By winning their fifth Champions League trophy on 6 June 2015 , Barcelona became the first European club in history to achieve the continental treble twice .

neg: Barcelona City Council election, 1995 The 1995 Barcelona City Council election was held on Sunday , 28 May 1995 , to elect the 5th Barcelona City Council , the unicameral local legislature of the municipality of Barcelona . At stake were all seats in the City Council , determining the Mayor of Barcelona . The number of members decreased from 43 to 41 compared to the previous election .   The unveiling of numerous corruption scandals throughout 1994 affecting Felipe González 's Socialist government marked the electoral campaign . For the first time in 16 years , a real possibility for change in the local government resulted in a heated race between Socialists ' Party of Catalonia ( PSC ) candidate and incumbent Mayor Pasqual Maragall and Convergence and Union ( CiU ) candidate Miquel Roca . Another factors influencing the political debate were the People 's Party ( PP ) rise in opinion polls as well as Republican Left of Catalonia ( ERC ) recovery .   The election resulted in a surprising comfortable win for PSC and Pasqual Maragall , which was elected for a fourth consecutive term in office with 16 seats and 38.4 % . On the other hand , CiU suffered from the PP growth and obtained its worst result since 1983 , winning 13 seats and 30.6 % . The People 's Party nearly doubled its 1991 result with 7 seats and 16.6 % , while both Initiative for Catalonia ( IC ) and ERC improved their electoral performances , with the latter narrowly surpassing the 5 % threshold to enter the City Council .

neg: History of FC Barcelona The history of Futbol Club Barcelona goes from the football club 's founding in 1899 and up to current time . FC Barcelona , also known simply as Barcelona and familiarly as Barça , is based in Barcelona , Catalonia , Spain . The team was founded in 1899 by a group of Swiss , English and Spanish footballers led by Joan Gamper . The club played amateur football until 1910 in various regional competitions . In 1910 , the club participated in their first of many European competitions , and has since amassed ten UEFA trophies and a sextuple . In 1928 , Barcelona co-founded La Liga , the top-tier in Spanish football , along with a string of other clubs . As of 2016 , Barcelona has never been relegated from La Liga , a record they share with Athletic Bilbao and arch-rival Real Madrid .   The history of super Barcelona has often been political . Though it is a club created and run by foreigners , Barcelona gradually became a club associated with Catalan values . In Spain 's transition to autocracy in 1925 , Catalonia became increasingly hostile towards the central government in Madrid . The hostility enhanced Barcelona 's image as a focal point for Catalonism , and when Francisco Franco banned the use of the Catalan language , the stadium of Barcelona became one of the few places the people could express their dissatisfaction . The Spanish transition to democracy in 1978 has not dampened the club 's image of Catalan pride . In the 2000s -- a period of sporting success in the club and an increased focus on Catalan players -- club officials have openly called for Catalonia to become an independent state .

neg: Belgian Golden Shoe In association football , the Belgian Golden Shoe ( Gouden Schoen , Soulier d'Or ) is an award given in Belgium at the beginning of each civil year to the best footballer of the Belgian First Division for the past year . The trophy is sponsored by the Belgian newspaper Het Laatste Nieuws .   The voters are a selection of Belgian press specialists and football personalities . They are invited to vote for the best player of the competition for both half seasons ( previous season second half and current season first half ) . As a result , a player can receive all of his votes in one half season ( e.g. if he joined the championship from abroad during summer ) , or he can receive votes for matches with two ( or more ) different teams , as with Philippe Albert in 1992 and Mbark Boussoufa in 2006 .

The only foreigners who have won the award more than once are the Swede Pär Zetterberg and the Moroccan Mbark Boussoufa .

neg: Eskimo (film) Eskimo ( also known as Mala the Magnificent and Eskimo Wife-Traders ) is a 1933 American Pre-Code drama film directed by W. S. Van Dyke and released by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer ( MGM ) . It is based on the books Der Eskimo and Die Flucht ins weisse Land by Danish explorer and author Peter Freuchen . The film stars Ray Mala as Mala , Lulu Wong Wing as Mala 's first wife Aba , Lotus Long as Mala 's second wife Iva , Peter Freuchen as the Ship Captain , W. S. Van Dyke as Inspector White , and Joseph Sauers as Sergeant Hunt .   Eskimo was the first feature film to be shot in a Native American language ( Inupiat ) , and the first feature film shot in Alaska . The film also incidentally documented many of the hunting and cultural practices of Native Alaskans . The production for the film was based at Teller , Alaska , where housing , storage facilities , a film laboratory , and other structures were built to house the cast , crew , and equipment .   It was nicknamed `` Camp Hollywood '' . The crew included 42 cameramen and technicians , six airplane pilots , and Emil Ottinger -- a chef from the Roosevelt Hotel . Numerous locations were used for filming , including Cape Lisburne in March 1933 , Point Hope and Cape Serdtse-Kamen in April to July , and Herald Island in the Chukchi Sea in July . The film crew encountered difficulties recording native speech due to the `` kh '' sound of the native language . Altogether , pre-production , principal photography , and post-production took 17 months .   The motion picture was well received by critics upon release on 14 November 1933 , and received the first ever Academy Award for Best Film Editing , although it did n't fare well at the box office . Scholar Peter Geller has more recently criticized the film as depicting the Eskimo as childlike , simple , and mythic `` noble savages '' rather than as human beings .

neg: Wiener Film Wiener Film ( German ; plural : Wiener Filme ; literally , `` Viennese film '' ) is an Austrian film genre , consisting of a combination of comedy , romance and melodrama in an historical setting , mostly , and typically , the Vienna of the late 19th and early 20th centuries .

neg: Major film studio A major film studio is a production and film distributor that releases a substantial number of films annually and consistently commands a significant share of box office revenue in a given market . In the North American , Western , and global markets , the major film studios , often simply known as the majors , are commonly regarded as the six diversified media conglomerates whose various film production and distribution subsidiaries collectively command approximately 80 to 85 percent of U.S. and Canadian box office revenue . The term may also be applied more specifically to the primary motion picture business subsidiary of each respective conglomerate .   The `` Big Six '' majors , whose operations are based in or around the Los Angeles neighborhood of Hollywood , are all centered in film studios active during Hollywood 's Golden Age of the 1930s and 1940s . In three cases -- 20th Century Fox , Warner Bros. , and Paramount -- the studios were one of the `` Big Five '' majors during that era as well . In two cases -- Columbia and Universal -- the studios were also considered majors , but in the next tier down , part of the `` Little Three '' . In the sixth case , Walt Disney Studios was an independent production company during the Golden Age ; it was an important Hollywood entity , but not a major . Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer , United Artists , and RKO were majors .   Today , Disney is the only member of the Big Six whose parent entity is still located near Los Angeles ( actually , on Disney 's studio lot and in the same building ) . The five others report to conglomerates headquartered in New York City , Philadelphia , and Tokyo . Of the Big Six , Paramount is the only one still based in Hollywood , and Paramount and Fox are the only ones still located within the Los Angeles city limits , while Disney and Warner Bros. are located in Burbank , Columbia in Culver City , and Universal in the unincorporated area of Universal City .   Most of today 's Big Six control subsidiaries with their own distribution networks that concentrate on arthouse pictures ( e.g. Fox Searchlight Pictures ) or genre films ( e.g. Sony 's Screen Gems ) ; several of these specialty units were shut down or sold off between 2008 and 2010 . The six major studios are contrasted with smaller production and/or distribution companies , which are known as independents or `` indies '' . The leading independent producer/distributors -- Lionsgate Films , The Weinstein Company , and former major studio Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer -- are sometimes referred to as `` mini-majors '' . From 1998 through 2005 , DreamWorks SKG commanded a large enough market share to arguably qualify it as a seventh major , despite its relatively small output . In 2006 , DreamWorks was acquired by Viacom , Paramount 's corporate parent . In late 2008 , DreamWorks once again became an independent production company ; its films were distributed by Disney 's Touchstone Pictures until 2016 , at which point distribution switched to Universal .   The Big Six major studios are today primarily backers and distributors of films whose actual production is largely handled by independent companies -- either long-running entities or ones created for and dedicated to the making of a specific film . The specialty divisions often simply acquire distribution rights to pictures in which the studio has had no prior involvement . While the majors still do a modicum of true production , their activities are focused more in the areas of development , financing , marketing , and merchandising . Those business functions are still usually performed in or near Los Angeles , even though the runaway production phenomenon means that most films are now mostly or completely shot on location at places outside Los Angeles .   Since the dawn of filmmaking , the U.S. major film studios have dominated both American cinema and the global film industry . U.S. studios have benefited from a strong first-mover advantage in that they were the first to industrialize filmmaking and master the art of mass-producing and distributing high-quality films with broad cross-cultural appeal . Today , the Big Six majors routinely distribute hundreds of films every year into all significant international markets ( that is , where discretionary income is high enough for consumers to afford to watch films ) . It is very rare , if not impossible , for a film to reach a broad international audience on multiple continents and in multiple languages without first being picked up by one of the majors for distribution .

neg: The Great Moment (1944 film) The Great Moment is a 1944 biographical film written and directed by Preston Sturges . Based on the book Triumph Over Pain ( 1940 ) by René Fülöp-Miller , it tells the story of Dr. William Thomas Green Morton , a 19th-century Boston dentist who discovered the use of ether for general anesthesia . The film stars Joel McCrea and Betty Field , and features Harry Carey , William Demarest , Franklin Pangborn and Porter Hall .   The movie was filmed in 1942 but not released for over two years , and the released version differed from what Preston Sturges had wished , although he publicly accepted the film as his own . Paramount Pictures disliked the film Sturges had made , and pulled it from his control , re-titled and re-edited it , in the process making it ( especially in the early segment ) more confusing for the audience to understand . The studio 's released version was marketed in a way that made it appear to be one of Sturges ' comedies . The film was not well received by the critics or the public , and marked the end of a sustained run of success for Sturges , who had already left Paramount by the time the film was released .   Although rarely seen today , the film is worth viewing for its flashback structure -- comparable in some ways to Citizen Kane , which was influenced by the earlier film The Power and the Glory , for which Sturges wrote the screenplay -- and for its irreverent and subtly satirical tone , unusual for a time when most Hollywood biopics were over-inflated and sentimental . In 2003 a medical-dental historian in a lengthy analysis of the movie and its history -- which cited its flashback structure , timeless subject , injections of humor , and `` un-Pasteur-like '' treatment of its protagonist , while adhering reasonably well to the historical record -- concluded that `` The Great Moment may now be due for a general reevaluation by movie historians and critics who , like most folks , have never felt much affection for dentists past and present .

neg: Alan Greenberg (film director) Alan Greenberg ( born October 14 , 1950 in New York City , died January 27 , 2015 in Portland , OR ) was an American film director , screenwriter , photographer and author .   Greenberg visited Jamaica from a young age , and was a friend of Bob Marley . Following Marley 's death , Marley 's family asked Greenberg to make a film about Marley . In 1981 , Greenberg filmed Land of Look Behind ( 1982 ) , a documentary film that includes footage of Marley 's funeral as well as scenes filmed in Jamaica 's remote Cockpit Country and the capital city of Kingston . The film ended up being more of a visionary portrait of the Jamaica of that period ( focusing on the Rastafari movement and reggae culture ) than a film primarily about Marley . The film has won considerable critical acclaim , as well as winning the Gold Hugo Award for Best Documentary in the Chicago International Film Festival , the U.S. 's largest film competition . Land of Look Behind has also been honored as the best American documentary film of its era , and the legendary filmmaker Werner Herzog says '' ` Land of Look Behind ' has achieved things never seen before in cinema . ''   Greenberg worked closely with Werner Herzog on many projects . He served as a special unit photographer on the films Cape Fear '' by Martin Scorsese ( 1991 ) and 1900 , by Bernardo Bertolucci ( 1976 ) . He also wrote twenty screenplays and three books . His book Heart of Glass , about the making of the 1976 Werner Herzog masterwork of the same name , was called `` The best book on the making of a film ever written '' by Rolling Stone magazine . A new and entirely revised edition of the book , entitled , `` EVERY NIGHT THE TREES DISAPPEAR : Werner Herzog and the Making of ` Heart of Glass ' '' was published in hard cover by the Chicago Review Press . It featured Greenberg 's previously-unpublished photographs , which Herzog called `` strange and beautiful . '' ''   In 2012 Greenberg was going to write and produce a film based on his acclaimed screenplay `` Love in Vain '' , a poetic account of the mysterious blues genius Robert Johnson . `` Love in Vain '' was also the first screenplay ever published by a major house ( Doubleday ) as literature .   Greenberg 's latest screenplay , `` Tutankhamun - Lord of Two Lands '' , a radically researched vision of the Boy King 's murder intertwined with the intrigue surrounding his tomb 's discovery in 1922 , was to have been produced in 2013 .

neg: Howard Freeman Howard Freeman ( December 9 , 1899 -- December 11 , 1967 ) was an American stage actor of the early 20th century , and film and television actor of the 1940s through the 1960s .   Freeman was born in Helena , Montana , and began working as a stage actor in his 20s .

neg: Twentieth Century (film) Twentieth Century is a 1934 American pre-Code screwball comedy film . Much of the film is set on the 20th Century Limited train as it travels from Chicago to New York City . The film was directed by Howard Hawks , stars John Barrymore and Carole Lombard , and features Walter Connolly , Roscoe Karns and Edgar Kennedy . Ben Hecht and Charles MacArthur adapted their Broadway play of the same name -- itself based on the unproduced play Napoleon of Broadway by Charles Bruce Millholland -- with uncredited contributions from Gene Fowler and Preston Sturges .   Along with Frank Capra 's It Happened One Night , also released in 1934 ( which amazingly has exactly the same music over the opening titles ) , Twentieth Century is considered to be a prototype for the screwball comedy . `` Howard Hawks ' rapid-fire romantic comedy established the essential ingredients of the screwball -- a dizzy dame , a charming but befuddled hero , dazzling dialogue and a dash of slapstick . '' Its success propelled Lombard into the front ranks of film comediennes . The film was added to the National Film Registry of the Library of Congress in 2011 .

neg: Hellzapoppin' (film) Hellzapoppin ' is a 1941 Universal Pictures adaptation of the musical of the same name directed by H.C. Potter . The cast includes Ole Olsen and Chic Johnson ( who produced and starred in it on Broadway ) , Martha Raye , Mischa Auer , Shemp Howard , Whitey 's Lindy Hoppers and The Six Hits .   Shemp Howard begins the film as the projectionist of a cinema , displaying on its screen what appears to be the start of a song-and-dance number whose classily dressed performers walk down a staircase - which collapses as in a fun-house ride , sliding them all straight to hell . Demons punish them in various ways . Ole and Chic arrive in the midst of the mayhem by taxi , and after a bit of funny business step back to reveal that it 's a movie sound stage . They work for Miracle Pictures , a company using the slogan `` If it 's a good picture , it 's a Miracle ! '' A mousy screenwriter ( Elisha Cook , Jr. ) outlines his script for the screen adaptation of Hellzapoppin '' ' , and the rest of the movie depicts Cook 's crazy script . Among the topical humor is Johnson picking up a sled named `` Rosebud '' and saying `` I thought they 'd burnt that '' ( Olsen and Johnson were friends of Orson Welles , whose film Citizen Kane closes with Kane 's childhood sled being burnt ) .   The film has a frenetic pace , and often breaks the ` Fourth wall ' , including inner ` fourth walls ' introduced by its nonlinear , metafictional narrative .   The 1942 Academy Award nomination for Best Song for `` Pig Foot Pete , '' ( which lost to `` White Christmas '' ) , was attributed to Hellzapoppin ' , but the song never appeared in the film -- it was actually performed in another Universal production from the same year , the Abbott and Costello film Keep 'Em Flying .

He was played by Jack Dodson from 1966-71 .   He was characterized by his milquetoast demeanor , moustache , bow ties , and a penchant for philosophy and culture . Howard was a repressed Mother 's boy who lived with his overbearing and manipulative mother , played by Mabel Albertson . ( TAGS , `` The County Clerk '' , episode # 185 ) . He appeared as the county clerk during the later color episodes of The Andy Griffith Show ( and continued onto Mayberry R.F.D. ) . While Jack Dodson made an earlier appearance as an insurance agent named Ed Jenkins ( TAGS , `` Lost and Found '' , episode 178 ) , he first appeared as Howard in the sixth season ( TAGS , `` The County Clerk '' , episode # 185 . ) This was not unusual on the show : other TAGS regulars were first introduced with different names : Hope Summers , who played Clara Edwards , first appeared as Bertha Johnson ; Goober Pyle was first called Goober Beasley ; and Arlene Golonka , who played Millie Swanson , was introduced as Millie Hutchins .   Due to his upbringing , Howard was socially stymied , especially when it came to dating . His mother even tried to thwart a double date he had with Sheriff Andy Taylor , Helen Crump , and a nurse , by feigning heart palpitations ( TAGS , `` The County Clerk '' , episode # 185 ) . Later , when Howard was about to join a men 's social club , his mother manipulated Goober Pyle with a sob story in an attempt to blackball his membership ( TAGS , `` The Lodge '' , episode # 192 ) . Opie once said Howard threw a baseball `` just like Aunt Bee '' .   When his mother remarried and moved to Mount Pilot , Howard sought to metamorphosize into a swinging hipster ( TAGS , `` The Wedding '' , episode # 246 ) . Wearing a smoking jacket and ascot , his plain home became a mod bachelor pad , with threshold-beads , and floor pillows .

Millie and Howard soon realized their incompatibility and mutually agreed to dissolve the relationship right before they were to wed. .   Despite his awkwardness , Howard proved to be quite a sportsman . He caught `` Old Sam '' , the much coveted legendary fish in Tucker 's Lake , thus antagonizing the town 's seasoned anglers ( TAGS , `` Big Fish In A Small Town '' , episode # 198 ) . He also proved to be an excellent bowler , after joining Emmett Clark 's bowling team and astonishing everyone by scoring a perfect game ( TAGS , `` Howard The Bowler '' , episode # 224 ) . Howard even parachuted from an airplane to appease a thrill-seeking lady friend ( Mayberry RFD , `` Howard 's Hobby '' , episode # 18 ) .   Howard had two brushes with stardom . First he appeared on the `` Colonel Tims Talent Time '' television show performing his stand-up comedy act , which consisted of personal affronts to his neighbors and `` one-horse '' jokes about Mayberry , causing him to be temporarily snubbed by the townsfolk ( TAGS , `` Howard The Comedian '' , episode # 216 ) . Mayberry city council once sent him with Emmett Clark to a New York City TV station to promote traditional , small town values . Howard soon did a backspin and became an unabashed New Yorker , replete with a loud , paisley Nehru suit and hair bangs ( Mayberry RFD , `` The Panel '' , episode 6 ) .   In the 1986 television movie Return to Mayberry , Howard was revisited ( along with most of the surviving cast ) .

neg: Bobby Joe Hill Tyrone Bobby Joe Hill ( June 12 , 1943 -- December 8 , 2002 ) was an American basketball player and was the leading scorer of the 1965 -- 66 Texas Western College ( now the University of Texas at El Paso ) team , helping the Miners win the 1966 NCAA basketball championship . The victory is considered one of the most important wins in sports history -- Texas Western started an all-black starting lineup , against the all-white University of Kentucky .   Bobby Joe Hill was the 5 '10 point guard from Highland Park , Michigan on the Texas Western college basketball team that won the national title in 1966 . Texas Western 's win over the top-ranked Kentucky team , nicknamed `` Rupp 's Runts , '' in the title game in College Park , Maryland , is considered one of the most historic games in the annals of college basketball . The school 's all-black starting five defeated a white Kentucky team , 72 -- 65 . Bobby Joe Hill was one of the most prominent players on the court . In the first half , he stole the ball from both Louie Dampier and Tommy Kron twice within the span of a minute and converted both steals into easy layups . He led all scorers with twenty points , and his plays were complemented by talented teammates Harry Flournoy , Nevil Shed , David Lattin , and Willie Worsley . Don Haskins coached Texas Western , and Adolph Rupp directed Kentucky . The Miners ' victory over the Kentucky Wildcats was a landmark event in the history of civil right and sports desegregation , comparable to Jackie Robinson 's baseball tenure with the Brooklyn Dodgers , decisively proving that color of skin has no bearing on talent and ability . Of note is that Don Haskins and the entire Texas Western squad rose above racial threats , insults , vandalism , and violence throughout the 1965 -- 1966 season to their against-all-odds triumph .   Bobby Joe Hill stayed in El Paso after his Texas Western career , married his college sweetheart , and retired as an executive with El Paso Natural Gas . He died in 2002 of a heart attack at age 59 , the first player from the starting lineup to die . Bobby Joe Hill is interred at Restlawn Memorial Park in El Paso , Texas .   The story of Bobby Joe Hill and the 1966 Texas Western national championship has been immortalized in the film Glory Road , which was released in the U.S. in January , 2006 , forty years after the `` fabulous five '' forever altered the landscape of college basketball . Derek Luke was cast to play Bobby Joe in the movie .

neg: Basket interference In basketball , basket interference is the violation of ( a ) touching the ball or any part of the basket while the ball is on the rim of the basket , ( b ) touching the ball when it is within the cylinder extending upwards from the rim , ( c ) reaching up through the basket from below and touching the ball , whether it is inside or outside the cylinder , or ( d ) pulling down on the rim of the basket so that it contacts the ball before returning to its original position . How the ball gets into the cylinder or onto the basket is irrelevant under high school and NCAA rules ; e.g. , a throw-in touched within the cylinder is basket interference , even though such a play could not score a goal . This similar play under NBA rules would not be basket interference .   There is one exception to the above : if a player dunks the ball , ( s ) he may maintain contact with the ball into the cylinder or grab the rim ( momentarily ) without penalty .   When a basket interference violation is called against the defending team , the shooting team is awarded the points for the field goal as if it had been made . When a basket interference violation is called against the shooting team , no points are scored and the ball is given to the defending team .   Basket interference and goaltending are the only violations in basketball for which points are automatically awarded .   FIBA has rules on basket interference . FIBA Art. 31.2.4 ( 2014 ) - Interference occurs under certain conditions when a player touches the ball , basket , rim , or backboard in a motion that `` the ball has been prevented from entering the basket or has been caused to enter the basket .

neg: Kenneth McGriff Kenneth `` Supreme '' McGriff ( born September 19 , 1960 ) is a convicted American drug trafficker and organized crime figure .   McGriff came to prominence in the early 1980s when he formed his own crack distributing organization which he called the Supreme Team based in the South Jamaica section of Queens , New York . Under McGriff 's leadership , the gang 's numbers swelled to the hundreds and came to control the crack cocaine trade in the Baisley Park Houses , the neighborhood where McGriff was raised .   In 1987 , McGriff was arrested following a joint state and federal investigation and in 1989 pleaded guilty to engaging in a Continuing Criminal Enterprise . He was sentenced to 12 years incarceration . McGriff was released from prison on parole in early 1994 after serving approximately seven years of his sentence . He was sent back to prison on parole violations by year 's end , and served another 2 1/2 years ' incarceration before being released in 1997 .   McGriff is alleged to have had a hand in the 2002 murder of Run D.M.C. member Jam Master Jay , and was convicted of ordering the 2001 killing of Mobb Deep affiliate E-Moneybags ( real name Eric Smith ) . Federal authorities also accused him in connection with the attempted murder of 50 Cent . Persistent rumors suggest that McGriff felt 50 Cent had exposed too much of the drug kingpin in Jamaica , Queens and others involved in the drug trade through the lyrics of his song `` Ghetto Qu ` ran '' released in 2000 .   On February 1 , 2007 McGriff was convicted of murder-for-hire at a Federal court in the Eastern District of New York on charges that he paid $ 50,000 to have two rivals ( Eric Smith and `` Big Nose '' Troy Singleton ) gunned down in 2001 . The jury deliberated for five days before finding McGriff guilty of murder conspiracy and drug trafficking . On February 9 , 2007 , the same jury sentenced McGriff to life in prison . Throughout this case he was defended by a court-appointed attorney because nearly all of his assets had been seized .   McGriff began serving his life sentence at ADX Florence , the federal supermax prison in Colorado , but in 2011 was transferred to the United States Penitentiary , Lee , a high-security federal prison in Pennington Gap , Virginia .

neg: Super World Court is a tennis arcade game which had been released by Namco in 1992 only in Japan ; it runs on Namco NA-1 hardware , and as the name suggests , it is the sequel to Pro Tennis : World Court which was released four years earlier . It is also the second of the company 's two Japan-exclusive games to feature the Federal Bureau of Investigation 's `` Winners Do n't Use Drugs '' screen in its attract sequence ( as the first was Exvania ) , and at the start of the game , players must select either `` singles '' ( 1P vs CPU/2P ) or `` doubles '' ( 1P & CPU/2P vs 3P/CPU & 4P/CPU ) - they will then have to select one of sixteen new players ( seven male , six female , and three animal/robot , as none of the original 's players survived the transition from 5121 to 4096 colours ) and select one of the four new courts ( USA hard , France clay , GB grass , and Namco funny , the last of which must be the equivalent of Japan ) . The players must then decide whether they want their match to be one or three sets long ; the company 's signature character , Pac-Man , also makes a cameo appearance upon the Namco court ( in fact , there are five of him in the screenshot to the right , playing the parts of ball boys , and if the players hit the two on the sides of the court , who pick up the ball when it hits the net , they will fly across the court while shouting `` NO ! '' , but will reappear on the other side of it the next time a point is scored , and this also applies to the regular ball boys on the other courts ) . Also , whenever a player scores a point , the text `` NICE SHOT '' will appear under a portrait of their chosen player , and there 's also a timer that counts down from a maximum of 360 seconds ( depending on how the cabinet has been set ) in the top-right corner of the screen ; if it has run out by the time a set has been won , the players will have to insert another coin within ten seconds if they wish to continue playing , because if they do not , the losing player ( or team , if three or four players ) shall immediately forfeit the game .

neg: Shadrake v Attorney-General Shadrake Alan v. Attorney-General is a 2011 judgment of the Court of Appeal of Singapore that clarified the law relating to the offence of scandalizing the court . Alan Shadrake , the author of the book Once a Jolly Hangman : Singapore Justice in the Dock ( 2010 ) , was charged with contempt of court by way of scandalizing the court . The Prosecution alleged that certain passages in his book asserted that the Singapore judiciary lacks independence , succumbs to political and economic pressure , and takes a person 's position in society into account when sentencing ; and that it is the method by which Singapore 's ruling party , the People 's Action Party , stifles political dissent in Singapore .   In the High Court , Justice Quentin Loh made significant changes to the law when he rejected the use of the long-standing `` inherent tendency '' test that had been applied to establish the actus reus of the offence , and instead adopted a `` real risk '' test . This allows a court to take into consideration the circumstances surrounding the uttering or publication of the impugned words and to only hold someone liable if that person has created a real risk in the circumstances in which the impugned words were communicated . In addition , he ruled that should an impugned statement be found to have scandalized the court , the only applicable defence to contempt of court would be if the statement amounted to `` fair criticism '' . In doing so , he rejected justification and fair comment as defences . Applying the real risk test , Justice Loh found that 11 out of 14 impugned statements were contemptuous and that the defence of fair criticism did not apply to any of the statements . The High Court thus found Shadrake guilty of the offence of contempt by way of scandalizing the court and sentenced him to six weeks ' imprisonment and a fine of S$ 20,000 .   Upon appeal , the Court of Appeal , while upholding the use of the real risk test , made several changes to the way the test is to be applied . In addition , the Court clarified that fair criticism is an element that determines whether there is liability , rather than operates as a defence . The Court , when applying its modified test , found that only nine of the 14 statements were contemptuous . It upheld the sentence passed by the High Court .   Both the High Court and Court of Appeal judgments explored the rationale for the law against contempt of court and its relation with freedom of speech , and emphasized the importance of public confidence in the administration of justice which can be impugned by contempt of court .

neg: Georgia v. McCollum Georgia v. McCollum , 505 U.S. 42 ( 1992 ) , was a case in which the Supreme Court of the United States held that a criminal defendant can not make peremptory challenges based solely on race . The court had previously held in Batson v. Kentucky ( 1986 ) that prosecutors can not make peremptory challenges based on race , but did n't address whether defendants could use them . The court had already ruled in Edmonson v. Leesville Concrete Company ( 1991 ) that the Batson prohibition also applies to civil litigants because they are state actors during the jury selection process .   However , in Polk County v. Dodson , , the court had held that a public defender is not a state actor in the context of a lawsuit for inadequate legal representation . McCollum argued that Polk County was the controlling precedent , so public defenders are not state actors during jury selection . Writing for the court , Justice Harry Blackmun disagreed . Blackmun found that whether a public defender is a state actor `` depends on the nature and context of the function he is performing . '' Just as he is a state actor in the context of personnel decisions like hiring and firing attorneys in his office , a public defender is a state actor in the context of peremptory challenges . Like in Edmonson , Blackmun found that race-based peremptory challenges by the defendant violate the Equal Protection Clause and are therefore unconstitutional .

neg: John Penros John Penros , or Penrose ( died 1411 ) was a Cornish-born lawyer and judge who held high office as Lord Chief Justice of Ireland , and subsequently served as a High Court judge in England and Wales . Despite his high office , he was guilty of `` an extraordinary career of crime '' which stretched over nearly forty years . When the charges against him were eventually proved , he was removed from the Bench .   He belonged to a landowning family which came from Escalls in Cornwall . He was a qualified advocate , but also became known as a notorious law-breaker , who along with his associates John Trevarthian senior ( died 1395 ) , and his son John Trevarthian junior ( died 1405 ) was notorious as one of the principal disturbers of the peace in Cornwall .   What was later described as his `` remarkable career of crime '' began about 1370 . In 1483 he was indicted in Surrey for his role in the murder of Richard Eyre , a fellow Cornishman whose family had a long-standing feud with the Trevarthians . The following year a warrant for his arrest was issued , but was later withdrawn , apparently on the ground that he was not a principal actor in the murder . The list of serious crimes of which the Trevarthians were accused , and to most of which Penrose was said to be at least an accessory , grew to a remarkable length : it included their private war with the Eyre family , which had resulted in the murder of Richard Eyre in 1483 , as well as piracy , burglary and treason . In time however the Trevarthian family became both wealthy and respectable : at the time of his death in 1405 John Trevarthian junior was Sheriff of Cornwall .   Despite his appalling criminal record , Penros was sent to Ireland as Lord Chief Justice in 1385 . He returned without permission to England the following year and as a result was accused of misconduct . Again he seems to have escaped serious censure , despite his reputation as `` a notorious criminal '' . In 1391 he was appointed a justice of the King 's Bench and became justice of South Wales in 1393 . He was a trier of petitions in the House of Commons of 1394 , but was eventually removed from the Bench on the ground of his record as a notorious criminal ( even though the career of his accomplice John Trevarthian junior was still flourishing ) .   Penros married firstly Joan , daughter of Richard Carnver , who died about 1391 , and secondly , about 1395 , Constance , of whom little is known . By Joan he had at least two sons , William and John ; John is said to have been an `` imbecile from birth '' . Penros died in 1411 .

neg: The World's Famous Supreme Team The World 's Famous Supreme Team was an American hip hop radio show crew and recording group from the early 1980s . Members included See Divine the Mastermind and Just Allah the Superstar ( now known as JazzyJust the Superstar ) , among others . Their pioneering radio show started in 1979 on WHBI-FM 105.9 broadcasting from Newark , New Jersey , and featured Mr. Magic before he went on to host the first rap show on a major radio station , The Rap Attack on WBLS . The group rose to international prominance when punk impresario Malcolm McLaren recruited See Devine and Just Allah and samples of their radio show for his surprise hip hop hit , 1982 's `` Buffalo Gals '' , and the full album follow-up , Duck Rock ( 1983 ) . They are credited as the first hip hop group to incorporate Five Percent teachings and slang into their music , and their appearances on Duck Rock contains the first instances on record - a trait that would become increasingly predominant in the late '80s and '90s . The World Famous Supreme Team released their own hit single `` Hey DJ '' in 1984 , which would appear on their only album , Rappin ' ( 1986 ) . The group reunited with McLaren for the 1990 album , Round the Outside ! Round the Outside ! .   `` Hey , DJ '' was later sampled on the Mariah Carey song `` Honey '' , popularising its use for a new generation .

neg: Hudson v. McMillian Hudson v. McMillian , 503 U.S. 1 ( 1992 ) , is a United States Supreme Court decision where the Court on a 7-2 vote held that the use of excessive physical force against a prisoner may constitute cruel and unusual punishment even though the inmate does not suffer serious injury .

neg: Grunting in tennis Grunting in tennis is the very loud noise , sometimes described as `` shrieking '' or `` screaming '' , made by some players while hitting their shots . It is prominent in both men 's and women 's tennis . Many players and spectators find it to be distracting or obnoxious above a certain sound level .   Monica Seles and Jimmy Connors are generally considered as the `` grunt creator '' in the women 's and men 's games respectively . Examples of contemporary tennis players who notably grunt are Serena Williams , Venus Williams , Maria Sharapova , Victoria Azarenka , Rafael Nadal , Novak Djokovic , David Ferrer and Gustavo Kuerten .

neg: High roller A high roller , also referred to as a whale , is a gambler who wagers large amounts of money . High rollers often receive lavish `` comps '' from casinos to lure them onto the gambling floors , such as free private jet transfers , limousine use and use of the casinos ' best suites . Casinos may also extend credit to a player to continue betting , offer rebates on betting turnover or losses , and salaries of employees may also contain incentive arrangements to bring in high rollers .   The definition of a high roller varies . At Crown Casino in Australia , for example , it involves bringing between A$ 50,000 and $ 75,000 to the table . High roller players often have very high table limits allowing the high roller exclusive use . Casinos compete on bet limits . In Australia limits of A$ 300,000 are common , in Las Vegas they are between US$ 150,000 and $ 300,000 , and in Macau they are up to US$ 500,000 . Only casinos with `` substantial financial firepower '' can accommodate high-stakes gambling due to the `` volatility '' of results .   High rollers may also be subject to exceptions from various rules and regulations ; for example the high roller rooms at Crown Casino in Melbourne , Australia are the only licensed venue in the state not subject to a ban on smoking .   High rollers are said to provide only a small fraction of casino `` action . '' John Eidsmoe , in his book Legalized Gambling : America 's Bad Bet , claims that it is actually gamblers from the lower and lower-middle classes in the United States that provide much of the gambling money . `` The occasional wealthy ` high roller ' does indeed exist , but he is the exception , not the standard . The fact that more than 50 % of Nevada 's gambling income comes from slot machines as opposed to the card tables should be an indication high rollers are not the main source of revenue . ''   One example of a high roller is an Australian man who turned over more than A$ 1.5 billion in a 14-month period from 2005 , becoming `` one of Crown 's largest Australian players but not in the same league as -LSB- its -RSB- top international players '' . There have been many cases around the world where high rollers have committed fraud to provide funds for gambling beyond their means , after becoming seduced by the lifestyle . This was the case with famed gambler Terrance Watanabe who reputedly lost over $ 220M in Las Vegas over a 5-year period , and was ultimately sued by Caesars Entertainment for failing to pay up on markers he took out during the binge totaling $ 14.75 M.    While high rollers may not provide a significant portion of the revenues in the casino industry as a whole , they can have a major effect on the net income of casinos that cater to them . There are significant costs associated with attracting the highest stakes gamblers , so if a casino takes this chance and the patron wins , its expenses can be extraordinarily large . But if the casino 's investment pays off and the high roller loses , the casino 's gain can far exceed its expenses for the high roller 's visit .

neg: Groundstroke A groundstroke or ground stroke in tennis is a forehand or backhand shot that is executed after the ball bounces once on the court . It is usually hit from the back of the tennis court , around the baseline .   A tennis player whose strategy is to trade groundstrokes with the opponent is termed a baseliner , as opposed to volleyers who prefers to hit volleys near the net .   There are many factors that may define a good groundstroke . For example , one groundstroke may use topspin and another backspin . Both can be effective for different reasons having to do with depth , opponent 's strength or weaknesses , etc. . Some characteristics of groundstrokes are : depth ( how close the ball lands to the opponent 's baseline ) , speed ( how fast it travels in the air ) , pace ( the ball 's behavior after it bounces on the opponent 's side ) , trajectory , and placement . If a `` good groundstroke '' is to be played , it would generally have a combination of the above characteristics to produce a shot that is difficult for the opponent to return . Generally , a groundstroke that lands deep and in the corner of the opponent 's court will make it more difficult for the opponent to return the ball . However , this is somewhat arbitrary and depends on the opponent and stage of the point being played . For example , a short angled shot , a moon ball ( very high trajectory ) , an off pace shot , etc. , may prove effective against opponent A but not opponent B.
