Hello Learned Ones ! Can you recall me the title(s) of this (these) war film(s) about Vietnam ? : at the end, a man holding a club circled with barbed wire lifts his arms. While a small tank with a big Stars & Stripes strolls around, and soldiers with punk dress and hair-do arrive, along with a yellow police dog …I hesitate between Platoon, The Deer Hunter, and Apocalypse now … and I swear I didn’t smoke any fitted carpet lately, I simply awoke today with a brain not so able at it used to be in the past decades…But looking supra, seems I was not the only one today...October cold coming ? :-) Thanks a lot beforehand for your help .

It's Platoon,the soldier with the club is Rah,the punk haircuts are the Nam mohawks and the dog as a sniffer dog/bomb dog. Hotclaws ( talk) 22:39, 18 October 2012 (UTC)
I'm keen to find music track for some songs from Les Miserables, in French. My own French skills are very limited and even staler. What would I search for on YouTube for the French versions of Do You Hear the People Sing?, Master of the House and At the End of the Day? HiLo48 ( talk) 08:12, 11 October 2012 (UTC)
Do you know any games like Evidence: The Last Ritual and In Memoriam? Thanks! 193.224.66.230 ( talk) 14:46, 11 October 2012 (UTC)
I don't understand this YouTube video and what Canadian actor Ryan Gosling has to do with the Prime Minister. Can anybody tell me? Iowafromiowa ( talk) 18:02, 11 October 2012 (UTC)
I am looking for an example of a theoretically possible outcome of a sporting event, but I know of no actual occurrence of it. Has there ever been a professional, team-based and team-scored sporting event in which, either as an exceptional event or with some regularity, the result of a dual contest was overturned after the fact due to the actions of one team?
To put it a simpler but less precise way, does members of a sports team being caught cheating after the fact ever mean that a win is retroactively turned into a loss?
I know that this happens in individual sports (like boxing and MMA), and I know that this happens in semi-team sports, (like road cycling and NASCAR), and I'm fairly confident it happens in high level amateur sports (like the Olympics) but I can't think of a single proper professional team sport in which it has ever happened.
If that doesn't lead anywhere, what if the restriction about after the fact is lifted? Has a pro sports team ever forfeited a game due to being caught cheating during it?
Much obliged for any suggestions you might have for cases that could fit these scenarios. gnfnrf ( talk) 22:20, 11 October 2012 (UTC)
