Angelina Jolie Pitt (/dʒoʊˈliː/ joh-LEE; née Voight; June 4, 1975) is an American actress, filmmaker, and humanitarian. She has received an Academy Award, two Screen Actors Guild Awards, and three Golden Globe Awards, and has been cited as Hollywood's highest-paid actress. Jolie made her screen debut as a child alongside her father, Jon Voight, in Lookin' to Get Out (1982). Her film career began in earnest a decade later with the low-budget production Cyborg 2 (1993), followed by her first leading role in a major film, Hackers (1995). She starred in the critically acclaimed biographical television films George Wallace (1997) and Gia (1998), and won an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for her performance in the drama Girl, Interrupted (1999).
Jolie's starring role as the video game heroine Lara Croft in Lara Croft: Tomb Raider (2001) established her as a leading Hollywood actress. She continued her successful action-star career with Mr. & Mrs. Smith (2005), Wanted (2008), and Salt (2010), and received critical acclaim for her performances in the dramas A Mighty Heart (2007) and Changeling (2008), which earned her a nomination for an Academy Award for Best Actress. Beginning in the 2010s, she expanded her career into directing, screenwriting, and producing, starting with the wartime dramas In the Land of Blood and Honey (2011) and Unbroken (2014). Her biggest commercial success came with the fantasy picture Maleficent (2014).
Jolie (Java Orchestration Language Interpreter Engine) is an open-sourceprogramming language for developing distributed applications based on microservices. In the programming paradigm proposed with Jolie, each program is a service that can communicate with other programs by sending and receiving messages over a network. Jolie supports an abstraction layer that allows services to communicate using different mediums, ranging from TCP/IP sockets to local in-memory communications between processes.
Jolie is currently supported by an interpreter implemented in the Java language, which can be run in multiple operating systems including Linux-based operating systems, OS X, and Windows. The language comes with formal semantics, meaning that the execution of Jolie programs is mathematically defined. For this reason, Jolie is used in research for the investigation of language-based techniques for the development of distributed systems, and it is also used for teaching at some Universities.

Garçon [garsɔ̃] is the French word for "boy". In English, and various other languages, it was adopted in the specific meaning of a (male, usually young) waiter, especially of low rank in a larger establishment, who serves customers food or drinks. However, in France, it is considered rude to address a waiter as "garçon"; rather one addresses the waiter as "monsieur".
"Garçon" is a 2007 successful song recorded by French rap singer Koxie. This R&B song was released as her debut single from her album Koxie, on which it features as the third track. It topped the charts of France and Belgium for two months.
Koxie created her MySpace page with her first single "Garçon" also known under the title "Gare aux cons". The song evokes, with humour, the exasperation of a young woman towards the stupidity (sexism and vulgarity) of some men (boys in the text). The song is based on a Dr. Dre sample, which is itself based on a Charles Aznavour recording.
The song was a huge success on the internet as well as on singles charts. Koxie released the single on the AZ label on 25 June 2007. To promote the song, she performed "Garçon" on many French programmes.
The song is also available on many French compilations, such as Hits 2 en 1 2007 Vol. 3, Hits 2008, Starfloor Vol. 7, NRJ Hit Music Only! 2007 and The Very Best Of 2007.
In the music video, Koxie is on her scooter and is accosted by a black man in a car, accompanied by his friends. This one addresses her vulgar words. Koxie tries to reason with him by saying that it is not a way of speaking to a woman and finally, the man begins crying in her arms, explaining that he acts so because he is incited by his friends.
