Medellín[edit]

Does anyone know which section of highway in Medellín Colombia is this? —128.163.238.167 (talk) 00:00, 24 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

It should be Puente de la Madre Laura. Note that in the video you see three place names in the traffic signs - Aranjuez, Regional, Carabobo. The there two exits to the right labelled 'Regional' and one exit to the right labelled 'Carabobo'. 'Aranjuez' is straight ahead in all three cases. This matches well with https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SRp-Yg_LbjU and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tSD8u2OcvbI --Soman (talk) 19:07, 24 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Here is a Google street view showing one of the Aranjuez/Regional signs. Perhaps the skaters were filmed after the Puente de la Madre Laura had been completed (in 2015?) but before it had been opened for traffic. Deor (talk) 14:22, 25 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

jurisprudence[edit]

concept of right and liability in the light of jurisprudence? Grotesquetruth (talk) 07:57, 24 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

You didn't really ask a specific question, just pointed to a very vague and broad topic. AnonMoos (talk) 11:43, 24 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Why did Roberto Centaro shoot himself?[edit]

On Sunday 13th February 1916 Roberto Centaro, the First Secretary of the Italian Embassy in London, was found shot in his private suite at Claridge's. Life was extinct. A revolver was found near the body. He had been in ill-health for some days (some newspapers say neurasthenia), but "nothing is known which would go to explain the cause of the tragedy". The Cavaliere was about thirty-five and had been at the Embassy for four months. Before that he had been Second Secretary at the Washington Embassy. No inquest was held, the Ambassador claiming diplomatic immunity. Was anything more ever discovered about his death and the reasons for it?
