Thailand Classic (golf)

The Thailand Classic was a professional golf tournament that was most recently played on the European Tour. The tournament was created in 2015, as a co-sanctioned event between the Asian Tour and the European Tour.

History
The inaugural tournament was played from 12–15 February 2015 at the Black Mountain Golf Club, in Hua Hin. The tournament was renamed as the True Thailand Classic after the True Corporation had committed to sponsoring the event. It had a purse of US$2,000,000, twice as high as the other leading tournaments in the country, such as the Thailand Golf Championship and Thailand Open.

Andrew Dodt won the inaugural tournament by one stroke over Scott Hend and Thongchai Jaidee. Hend won the following year.

Having not been played since 2016, the tournament was revived in 2023, solely as part of the European Tour schedule. It was played at Amata Spring Country Club.

Susan Price

Susan Price (born 8 July 1955) is an English author of children's and young adult novels. She has won both the Carnegie Medal and the Guardian Prize for British children's books.

Price was born in Dudley, Worcestershire (now West Midlands) in what is known as the Black Country. The region had a major effect on her writing which is "grounded in its history and geology, the limestone and iron ore and coal and fireclay of a landscape that spawned the industrial revolution". From a working class family, she left school without qualifications, and stacked supermarket shelves and washed up in hotel kitchens while writing her first books.

She has written over 60 books, and also worked as a Royal Literary Fund fellow attached to De Montford University.

Writing
Many of Susan Price's works are fantasy, from science fiction to ghost stories; some are historical novels; others are about animals or everyday life. Many of her short stories are re-tellings of tales from folklore. Her first Ghost World novel, The Ghost Drum (1987), is an original fairy tale using elements from Russian history and Russian folklore. She won the Carnegie Medal from the Library Association, recognising The Ghost Drum as the year's best children's book by a British subject; reissued in 2024 it was described as a "rediscovered gem".

In The Sterkarm Handshake (1998) and its sequel A Sterkarm Kiss (2003), time travel brings together a young anthropologist from 21st century Britain and a young warrior from 16th century Scotland. They become lovers and she sides with his border clan in conflict with a 21st-century corporation. For the first book, Price won the Guardian Children's Fiction Prize, a once-in-a-lifetime award judged by a panel of British children's writers.

The Pagan Mars trilogy (2005–2008), also known as Odin or Mars, is set in a scientifically advanced alternative world where the pagan gods are still worshiped and slavery, called bondery, is commonplace.

Hanging cable

A cable is suspended between two towers like a power line between two towers. Assume that the towers are on a level parcel of ground but the heights of the towers maybe different. Using the following notation

$$ u(x) $$ - height of cable center

$$ L $$ - distance between two towers

$$ u_{0} $$ - height of cable at tower 1

$$ u_{L} $$ - height of cable at tower 2.

$$ T $$ - horizontal component of tension.

$$ w $$ units of weight per unit length of cable.

and the forces acting on the cable, it can be shown that the cable height $$ u(x) $$ is the solution of the differential equation

$$ {d^{2} u(x) \over {dx^{2}}} = {w \over T} \sqrt{1 + ( {du \over {dx}} ) ^ {2} } $$

with the end conditions $$ u(0)= u_{0} $$ and $$ u(L)=u_{L} $$.

Talk:Hap Emms

Coaching statistics
When I was researching Emms coaching statistics, I noted several discrepencies:
 * 1) Statistics from hockeydb.com have Emms coaching until 1965 in Niagara Falls, but omit several seasons in Barrie.
 * 2) Service record from eliteprospects.com lists his coaching career as 15 seasons with Barrie, then GM only after that.
 * 3) The OHL media guide credits Emms with 15 seasons coaching, but no start or end date. Also, I cannot reproduce the totals in the OHL media guide through any combination of seasons from 1945 to 1965.
 * 4) Emms also did not coach on some Sunday, hiring instead his son Paul Emms or Bill Long. I'm unsure if that affects the OHL totals.
 * 5) I have other sources that indicate Long as the coach from 1963 onward.

Here are the statistics listed on hockeydb.com, which are not included in the main space.

More research may be needed to clarify exact totals. Flibirigit (talk) 22:01, 30 December 2017 (UTC)

A little bio
My full name is Chrishan Silva and I'm 20 years old. I'm from Sri Lanka and currently an undergraduate in Physical Sciences stream in University of Colombo. The schools I attended were St. John's School in Panadura, Mahanama College and Ananda College. I'd like to be a chemist as well as a music composer by the future.

Among the sports, I like to play cricket and badminton. And from the games, I admire chess and would like many more including carom, checkers, scrabble, crosswords etc.

A simple free-verse
"Chemistry is the subject I love most when it becomes to deal with someone...                                   Music is the language I love most when it comes to be friendly with anyone...                                    Literature is the aesthetic I love most when it comes to talk with anyone...                                     Nothing still I love most when it comes to be affectionate at someone..." I'm still a single...

Composing

Federazione Industria Musicale Italiana

The Federazione Industria Musicale Italiana (FIMI) or Federation of the Italian Music Industry is an umbrella organization that keeps track of virtually all aspects of the music recording industry in Italy. It was established in 1992, when major corporate labels left the previously existing Associazione dei Fonografici Italiani (AFI). During the following years, most of the remaining Italian record labels left AFI to join the new organisation. As of 2011, FIMI represents 2,500 companies operating in the music business.

FIMI is a member of the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry and of the Italian employers' federation, Confindustria. Its main purpose is to protect the interests of the Italian record industry.

Starting in March 1995, the Italian Music Industry Federation began providing the Italian official albums chart. In January 1997, FIMI also became the provider of the Italian official singles chart. Due to the decrease of CD singles sales in Italy, FIMI replaced its physical singles chart with a digital downloads chart—based on legal Internet and mobile downloads—on 1 January 2008.

In July 2011, Enzo Mazza was confirmed as FIMI chairman.

FIMI Albums Chart
In September 1994, the chairman of FIMI, Caccia Dominioni, announced the Federation's intention to establish an album chart to replace the previously existing charts, which were considered unreliable due to their compiling methods.

The Italian Music Industry Federation compiled its first album chart in March 1995. Issued on 7 March 1995, it was based on sales between 23 February 1995 and 1 March 1995. This period coincided with the first week of sales for the albums released by the 45th Sanremo Music Festival contestants, the most important music event in Italy. The first number-one album was Bruce Springsteen's Greatest Hits.

Between 1995 and 2009, the FIMI Album Chart was based on data provided by Nielsen. From January 2010, the FIMI Album Chart's positions have been derived from GfK Retail and Technology Italia sales data. The chairman of the Italian Music Industry Federation, Enzo Mazza, explained this decision declaring that "the long-time partnership with Nielsen, started in 1995, was satisfying, but in a moment marked by a deep transformation and innovation of the market, we thought that the service offered by Nielsen was no more adequate".

In 1995, the chart was based on data digitally gathered by 130 sellers. The number of sellers was later increased and, as of 2011, the chart is based on the number of copies sold between Monday to Sunday by a subset of 3,400 retailers. Starting from 14 October 2011, the FIMI Albums Chart also includes digital sales.

FIMI Compilations Chart
In March 1995, alongside the FIMI Album Chart, the Italian Music Industry Federation also began the FIMI Compilations Chart, listing the best-selling albums by various artists. These albums are not included in the FIMI Album Chart. The first number-one was Sanremo '95, released by RTI Music and featuring some of the songs performed during the 45th Sanremo Music Festival.

FIMI Singles Chart
In January 1997, the Italian Music Industry Federation also started an official singles chart. The first number-one single was Depeche Mode's "Barrel of a Gun". Compiled by Nielsen, the chart listed the best-selling physical singles in Italy, but on 1 January 2008 it was replaced by the Top Digital Download, listing the best-selling digital singles. The last number one on the physical FIMI Singles Chart was Elvis Presley's song "Baby Let's Play House" remixed by Spankox.

FIMI DVD Chart
The Italian DVD Chart was established by the Italian Music Industry Federation in October 2003. The first Italian DVD Chart listed only the first ten positions, and was headed by Sting's Inside the Songs of Sacred. As of July 2011, it lists the 20 best-selling music DVDs in Italy, and is compiled by ACNielsen.

Top Digital Download
On 10 April 2006, FIMI published the first chart listing the best-selling digital singles in Italy. Compiled by Nielsen SoundScan, the chart was based on data provided by 10 digital stores. The first number-one single was "Sei nell'anima" by Gianna Nannini.

Due to the decrease of CD singles sales in Italy, on 1 January 2008 the Top Digital Download became the Italian official singles chart, replacing the chart based on physical sales.

Sales certification
A certification system has existed in Italy since the mid-1970s. During that period, albums had to sell 500,000 units to qualify for a Silver status, while for Gold, the requirement was 1 million units. Singles, similarly, were required to sell 1 million units to reach the Gold level in the mid-1970s. Sales requirements for music recordings in Italy for domestic and international repertoire are the same levels. In December 1982, reported certification levels in Italy were 250,000 copies sold for gold status and 500,000 copies sold for platinum status. Certifications were handled by AFI with the help of an auditing company. By 1987, the levels were dropped to 100,000 copies sold for gold status and 200,000 copies sold for platinum status.

Albums
In the table below are the certification levels, when the program of Gold and Platinum is operated under FIMI.

From July 2017, album certifications include streaming.

Singles
Italy has had a Gold certification program for singles during the mid-1970s, with the level for Gold set at 1 million units. Even though, the requirement of 1 million units for Gold was quite high for the Italian market, this program was carried on to the 1980s. The singles certification program was abandoned when FIMI took over the operations, and it wasn't until 1999 that Italy re-launched its Gold and Platinum program for singles.

In the table below are the certification levels, when the program of Gold and Platinum is operated under FIMI.

Since the 2010 update, FIMI applies their recent/newer certification levels to all digital singles regardless of release dates. Since 2014, single certifications include downloads and streaming.

Music DVDs
In the table below are the certification levels, when the program of Gold and Platinum is operated under FIMI.

List of highest certified albums by FIMI (post-2009)
The following is a list of the highest certified albums by the Italian Music Industry Federation (FIMI), began when certification system became available since 2009. The listed certifications below can be verified through FIMI's certification database. For certification levels refer to the tables above.

Diamond
The albums released from 2005 until the end of 2011 were qualified for Diamond award upon reaching five-times Platinum. FIMI, however, changed this rule in January 2012, and began to base the Diamond award on ten-times Platinum.

Johann Tschopp

Johann Tschopp (born 1 July 1982 in Sierre) is a Swiss professional mountain bike racer. He previously competed as a professional road bicycle racer between 2004 and 2014, competing with the, , and  squads. He is noted as an especially good climber since he is lightweight (1.75 m, 60 kg) and his training environment is mainly mountainous. He has already a quite important record in cyclo-cross and mountain bike marathon.

2012 season
In August 2012, Tschopp won the Tour of Utah's overall classification thanks to his victorious performance on the queen stage of the race, the fifth one. He got out of the bunch on the lower slopes of the last climb leading to the Snowbird ski resort, passed all the scattered breakaway riders and crossed the uphill finish with an advantage of 43 seconds on his nearest pursuer. This ride netted him the leader's jersey previously worn by rider Christian Vande Velde. Tschopp and his teammates managed to hold on to the general classification lead on the last trial, stage 6, which was another mountainous affair, and celebrated the victory.

2013 season
Tschopp left at the end of the 2012 season, and joined a new team from his native country, the  team for the 2013 season. In the Tour of Oman, he took the sixth place in the general classification of a field that included the likes of Chris Froome, Alberto Contador and Joaquim Rodríguez, who finished ahead of him. In Paris–Nice, Tschopp won the mountains classification jersey thanks to his participation in numerous breakaways. He had a commanding lead at 64 points, 40 points more than his closest rival.

2014 season
In November 2014 Tschopp announced that he would retire from road racing to return to mountain biking in 2015.

Beginner Japanese/Particles

Lesson
A particle is a pseudo-word which has no meaning, but a function in maintaining order in a sentence. Particles tie directly into the concept of sentence structure, as they are used to mark where certain parts of the sentence lie in relation to others.

Japanese sentence structure is Subject, Object, Verb. That's all you should really worry about in Japanese, as the rest of the sentence can be in horrible disrepair, but as long as the Subject is first, Verb last with the Object somewhere in the middle, and so far as an introductory course is concerned, YOU'RE SPEAKING JAPANESE!!

The particles are as follows:
 * は (wa) marks the topic of a sentence (equivalent to English "as for ..." or "speaking of ..."). (Note: When は is used as a particle it is pronounced "wa", not "ha".)
 * が (ga) marks the subject of a sentence.
 * を (wo) marks the direct object of a sentence (usually inanimate). When を is used as a particle it is usually pronounced "o" (i.e. with a silent w).
 * へ (e) specifies the direction of an action. When へ is used as a particle it is usually pronounced "e" (i.e. with a silent h). However the particle "e" is pronounced "he" in hiragana.
 * か (ka) indicates a question when used at the end of a sentence.
 * の (no) is used to create a modifier phrase or possessive term (equivalent to English  's).
 * な (na) marks an adjective that, typically, is derived from a foreign language.
 * も (mo) - "also" (substitutes for wa, ga, or wo).
 * で (de) - "by means of", "in"/"at" for actions, "and" (not used often)
 * に (ni) denotes place, "in"/"at" for existence.
 * と (to) - "and", object of "say" or "think".
 * や (ya) - "and" for an incomplete list.
 * から (kara) specifies the starting point of an action.
 * まで (made) specifies the ending point of an action.
 * 月曜日から金曜日まで働きます.  [I] work from Monday to Friday.

Desmond Williams (musician)

Desmond Williams is an American electronica musician, as well as a record producer and was the chief sound engineer for the Eighteenth Street Lounge Music record label. Born in Jamaica and raised in Montclair, New Jersey, Williams has been known for his remixing and producing style.

Biography
In 1993, Williams began working with Scientist. Together, they did a great deal of experimentation with new digital audio techniques, as well as mixing live events for such artists as Third World (band), Supercat, Freddie McGregor, etc. In 1995, they co-produced an album for Sugar Minott entitled International for RAS Records. At this time, Williams also was the house sound engineer at the Takoma Station Tavern Jazz club in Washington, D.C. At this time he did sound for almost every Reggae and Jazz band in town, including Chuck Brown, Little Bennie, Sugar Bear from E.U., Black Sheep, and Carl Malcolm.

In 2000, he was hired by Thievery Corporation to work with their fledgling studio. William performed many tasks for Thievery Corporation and the label, ESL Music. He was the head engineer, co-producer for many of Thievery Corporations tracks, played bass, guitar, and keyboards for most of the tracks on the Thievery albums, Mirror Conspiracy, Outernationalist and Richest Man In Babylon, and was responsible for basic production work on many of the Thievery Corporation remixes.

In 2000, Williams created his initial EP, Theme from a Dream. In 2002, he released his debut album, Delights of the Garden. After leaving ESL Music in 2003, Williams co-founded the Washington, D.C. based Rhythm & Culture Recordings record label with then partner, Farid Ali. He released an EP entitled East West Highway, and collaborated with Philip Brooks, formerly of Avatars of Dub, to form a group called Browntempo (a phrase he coined to describe their music). Browntempo had one release on Rhythm & Culture Recordings.

In 2007, William collaborated with Morel of Deep Dish for the release of his cover version of the Nirvana track, "Smells Like Teen Spirit". This version was included in the limited edition Heart Shaped Box Box set, which included unreleased Nirvana tracks, live tracks and notable cover versions of Nirvana songs. This is an excerpt from The Daily Swarm's article about the 5-CD box set - "The music encased inside is 3 discs of 50 songs performed by Nirvana, plus another 2 discs of covers, including renditions of "Smells Like Teen Spirit" by Paul Anka, Scala, Tori Amos, Patti Smith, and Desmond Williams; tracks by Charlie Hunter Trio, Steve Earle, Herbie Hancock, Sinéad O'Connor, and Stereophonics; and multi-song sets of Nirvana songs done as lullabies and orchestral scores. 500 numbered boxes were made."

In 2008, William collaborated with Vaughn Benjamin of the Midnite reggae band and released an album titled Kayamagan.

In 1996, he had a son, by he name of Imani, who is currently making music, classified in genres such as Hip Hop, and R&B, and Neo-Soul, under the name of "IiMZ".

HP Saturn

The Saturn family of 4-bit (datapath) microprocessors was developed by Hewlett-Packard in the 1980s first for the HP-71B handheld computer, released in 1984, and later for various HP calculators (starting with the HP-18C). It succeeded the Nut family of processors used in earlier calculators. The HP48SX and HP48S were the last models to use HP manufactured Saturn processors, later models used processors manufactured by NEC. The HP 49 series initially used the Saturn CPU until the NEC fab could no longer manufacture the processor for technical reasons in 2003. Starting with the HP 49g+ model in 2003, the calculators switched to a Samsung S3C2410 processor with an ARM920T core (part of the ARMv4T architecture) which ran an emulator of the Saturn hardware in software. In 2000, the HP 39G and HP 40G were the last calculators introduced based on the actual NEC fabricated Saturn hardware. The last calculators introduced to use the Saturn emulator were the HP 39gs, HP 40gs and HP 50g in 2006, as well as the 2007 revision of the hp 48gII. The HP 50g was the last calculator sold by HP using this emulator when it was discontinued in 2015 due to Samsung stopping production of the ARM processor on which it was based.

Architecture
The Saturn hardware is a nibble serial design as opposed to its Nut predecessor, which was bit-serial. Internally, the Saturn CPU has four 4-bit data buses that allow for nearly 1-cycle per nibble performance with one or two buses acting as a source and one or two acting as a destination. The smallest addressable word is a 4-bit nibble which can hold one binary-coded decimal (BCD) digit. Any unit of data in the registers larger than a nibble, up to 64-bits, can be operated on as a whole, however the Saturn CPU performs the operation serially on a nibble-by-nibble basis internally.

The Saturn architecture has an internal register width of 64 bits and 20-bits of address, with memory being addressed to 4-bit (nibble) granularity. Saturn ALU instructions support variable data width, operating on one to 16 nibbles of a word. The original Saturn CPU chips provided a four-bit external data bus, but later Saturn-based SoCs included on chip bus conversion to an 8-bit external data bus and 19-bit external address bus.

The Saturn architecture has four 64-bit GPRs (General Purpose Registers), named A, B, C and D. In addition, there are also five 64-bit "scratch" registers named R0, R1, R2, R3 and R4. These can only store data. If an ALU operation is required for data in a scratch register, then the register in question must be transferred to a GPR first. Other registers include a 1-nibble "pointer" register named P, usually used to select a nibble in a GPR or a range of nibbles (or for aligning immediate data on a specific nibble in a GPR, with wrap-around). For memory access, there are two 20-bit data pointer registers named D0 and D1. The Saturn architecture also has a PC or program counter register which can interoperate with the GPRs. There is also an 8-level, circular, LIFO 20-bit hardware return stack named RSTK used when a subroutine call instruction is issued. Additionally, the Saturn CPU is equipped with a 16-bit software status register named ST and a 1-nibble hardware status register named HS, which notably, contains the SB or "sticky bit" flag indicating whether a binary 1 was right shifted off of a GPR. Furthermore, the Saturn architecture has a 12-bit OUT register and a 16-bit IN register, which in the Yorke and Clarke SoCs, are used to capture input from the keyboard and also control the beeper. There is also a 1-bit carry flag register.

In addition to the above, the Saturn CPU has a simple, non-prioritized interrupt system. When an interrupt occurs, the CPU finishes executing the current instruction, saves the program counter to the hardware return stack (RSTK) and jumps to address 0x0000Fh, where the preceding value is in nibbles. The CPU also interacts with the keyboard scanning logic directly.

The following diagram depicts the registers (with each white square being 4-bits / a nibble except for the Carry flag, which is 1 bit):

Saturn 64-bit GPR register format and fields:

Data in the general purpose registers can be accessed via fields that fall on nibble boundaries, whereas the scratch registers allow only load and store operations. The fields, as shown in the above diagram, are W (whole 64-bit GPR), A (address, first 5 nibbles of a GPR), S (sign of mantissa, most significant nibble of a GPR), XS (exponent sign, nibble 2 of a GPR), M (mantissa, nibbles 3–14 of a GPR), X (exponent, first 3 nibbles of a GPR) and B (first byte of a GPR). In addition, there is the P field which selects a nibble from a GPR based on the P register's 4-bit value. Also, there is the WP field which selects nibbles 0 through the nibble selected in the P register. The 64 bits (16 nibbles) can hold BCD-formatted coded floating point numbers composed of a sign nibble (which is "9" if the number is negative), 12 mantissa digits and a 3-digit 10's complement exponent stored in BCD format (±499). The internal representation of BCD floating point values are a 15-digit mantissa with one sign nibble in one register combined with a 20-bit exponent, in 10's complement format, in another register. The use of BCD instead of straight binary representation is advantageous for calculators as it avoids rounding problems that occur on the binary/decimal conversion.

The Saturn CPU's instruction and data addresses are also nibble-based. The three pointer registers (including the program counter) and address registers are 20 bits wide. Due to this, the Saturn architecture can address 1 M nibbles or, equivalently, 512 K bytes. Beyond that size (e.g. in the 48GX), bank switching is used.

The original HP-71B handheld computer and the HP-28C had the Saturn processor as a separate chip. In the HP 48S/SX, 48G/GX series and HP-28S, HP-27S, HP-42S, HP-32SII and HP-20S, the Saturn CPU core is integrated as part of a more complex integrated circuit (IC) SoC.

Example code
The following is an integer implementation of a BCD decimal square root algorithm in Saturn Jazz / HP Tools assembly syntax:

** In the following A.W is assumed to contain the argument (< 1E14).
 * The result (IP(SQRT(A.W))) is in C.W:

SETDEC ASL    W        C=A     W        A=A+A   W          A=A+A   W        A=A+C   W        ASR     W        C=0     W        P=      13 LC(1)  5 -      CSR     WP        C=C-1   P  --      C=C+1   P          A=A-C   W          GONC    -- A=A+C  W          CSR     W          P=P-1 P=P-1 GONC   - SETHEX A=C    W

Chipsets and applications
The original Saturn CPU gave its name to the entire instruction set architecture. Later chips had their own code names:

The CPU code-names are inspired by members of the Lewis and Clark Expedition of 1804–1806, the first United States overland expedition to the Pacific coast and back. The virtual CPU / emulator code names were inspired by the prototype "New-Yorke" Saturn-based 8 MHz SoC that never made it to production. According to one of the ACO (Australian Calculator Operation) members, "Big Apple" was derived from the code name "New-Yorke" of the prototype 8 MHz Saturn-based SoC in a reference to New York city, hence the names "Big apple", "Mid Apple" and "Little Apple".

Talk:Dennis Hof

Major rewrite
Did a major rewrite on the article. I retained the relevant information whilst supplementing with additional material.

The article contained one of the biggest grammatical no-nos, the improper use of the colon (stop giggling, your zits are showing) in mid-sentence. It made the article read more like an 8th grader's attempt at an essay. I've remedied that.

I've also set up an outline--if you will--to expand the article into fuller form once I have more information about Dennis Hof.  As I collect it, I'll integrated it into the article itself.

Removals
Removed two sentences:

 * so as to not jeopardize their business

As no example is adduced of a brothel owner being prosecuted for advertising, the sentence lacks a factual basis.

The brothel owners kept a low profile for many years to avoid any excuse for anyone to give them grief. Since, in many of these small counties (prostitution is illegal under state in any county with more than 400K residents: only Clark County, home of Vegas has more than that many people, FIVE times as many!) tax revenues from the brothels make up 25%+ of these counties' budgets, there's little local incentive to harass the brothel owners with what are probable unconstitutional laws anyway.

It's no stretch to say that without the "sex industry", many counties would have to make draconian cuts in governmental services.

 * thereby circumvent [sic] the Nevada ban on brothel advertising

the use of the term "circumvent", imo, implies that somehow Hof is doing something illegal.

'''Perhaps a lawyer can correct me here. I don't see how this "ban" on brothel advertising could possible be legal.'''

After all, many unConstitutional laws are still on the books: the most appropriate, if not directly on point, are the "sodomy" laws (on the books in at least 13 states) recently stricken down by the High Court. The laws are still on the books but unenforceable.

'''Decades ago, the SCOTUS struck down bar and medical association bans on advertising for their members. The court ruled''', in both cases, that the bans were not only a violation of free speech (as well commercial speech).

For years Clark County has been fighting a losing battle with the publishers of sexually-themed advertising. Many of the brochures, magazines, etc, are little more than pornography. Yet, time after time, the courts have refused to allow the County Commission to ban the distribution of this pornography. This material is openly handed out on The Strip; the distributors often try to give the stuff to parents and very young people.

I realize that Congress can ban advertising of tobacco products on broadcast TV because the Federal government actually owns the airwaves. I seriously doubt any cable network is going to throw, e.g. the cigarette hand grenade into Congress' lap. It would certainly lead to attempts to sick the FCC on cable providers.

PainMan (talk) 12:12, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

Bias
I edited this part out

"Dennis Hof harbored wanted sex offender Philip Yoder for two years. Yoder was wanted out of oregon for parole violations. He was a convicted sex offender that never registered in carson city nevada while living and working at Hofs apartment complex. In the two years he worked at the Bunny Ranch he never registered with Lyon County Sheriffs Department for his Sheriffs card which is mandatory by law to make sure that the people working there are not criminals or wanted. Dennis and Philip Yoder have been friends since Philip owned a publishing company for sex clubs. http://www.nevadaappeal.com/article/20080918/NEWS/809179946&parentprofile=search[citation needed]"

This implies that Hof has been charged with harboring a criminal or committed some other form of wrongdoing. The section should only be added back in once someone correctly formats and re-writes it with the bias taken out. —Preceding unsigned comment added by <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 21:18, 4 March 2010 (UTC)

 * This was a three-way Skype conference call with User:Nolhay, User:JWSchmidt and a third computer as a "silent" participant being used to record. The recording computer was an Intel Pentium 4 (1.6 GHz) running Windows XP Pro and Skype (version <IP_ADDRESS>). The sound output line (headphones/speaker) was connected through a cable to the line-in. Audacity was used to record the Skype conference call.

Participating in a Skype conference call
What you need: You need to download the Skype software for your operating system. Note the system requirements: Skype uses a significant amount of RAM, virtual memory and CPU cycles (Macintosh, Linux, Windows, bottom of the page).

When you use Skype, your computer may not have enough computing resources to produce good sound quality. While in a conference call, avoid using your computer for other memory- or CPU-intensive purposes.
 * Input If you want other people to hear you talk, your computer must have a microphone or some way to feed your pre-recorded audio into the Skype call.
 * Output It is best to use headset in order to prevent feedback from speakers into your microphone. If you are in a noisy location, you can use the Skype "mute" button when you are not actively speaking.

Sharing Skype calls
One goal of Wiki Campus Radio is to have streaming audio, including a capability to have the equivalent of a "call in show". How can streaming audio be generated "live" from a Skype conference call? How can listeners "call in" and participate in the on-going VoIP session?

Using the, Winamp and SHOUTcast can be used to produce a streaming audio version of a Skype conference call. It is possible for a large audience to use client software such as VLC media player to listen to the audio stream. In this case, there was about a 45 second delay between the VoIP conversation and the audio stream. It would be possible for listeners to coordinate through the Wikiversity IRC chat channel and enter into the Skype conference call while it is in progress, either to ask questions or participate in a new segment of the "show".

Will it be possible to use the Sandbox Server as a host for Skype conversations, both to record them and to make streaming audio available?

Barnet (UK Parliament constituency)

Barnet was a parliamentary constituency in what is now the London Borough of Barnet, which returned one Member of Parliament (MP) to the House of Commons of the Parliament of the United Kingdom.

History and boundaries
The House of Commons (Redistribution of Seats) Act 1944 set up Boundaries Commissions to carry out periodic reviews of the distribution of parliamentary constituencies. It also authorised an initial review to subdivide abnormally large constituencies (those exceeding an electorate of 100,000) in time for the 1945 election. This was implemented by the Redistribution of Seats Order 1945 under which Hertfordshire was allocated an additional seat. As a consequence, the new County Constituency of Barnet was formed from the St Albans constituency, comprising the Urban Districts of Barnet and East Barnet, and the Rural District of Elstree.

For the 1950 general election, the Rural District of Hatfield was also added from St Albans, but from the 1955 general election, this was transferred back out to the Hertford constituency.

In 1965 the Barnet and East Barnet urban districts were transferred to Greater London, becoming part of the London Borough of Barnet, while Elstree Rural District remained part of Hertfordshire. This did not affect parliamentary boundaries for nine years, however.

When seats were next redistributed, with effect from the February 1974 general election, the Greater London parts of the old constituency moved to the new Borough Constituency of Chipping Barnet. The Elstree Rural District was transferred to the new County Constituency of South Hertfordshire.

Swine
In swine, infection with Brahcyspira pilosicoli causes a disease known porcine intestinal spirochetosis. Clinical signs associated with the disease include reduced productivity, hemorrhagic colitis and bloody diarrhea. The diarrhea typically resolves quickly, but may persist in some animals. Stressors such as weaning and mixing predispose pigs to the disease and are the times when the disease occurs most frequently. Infection causes decreased feed intake and body weight gain, which has economic impacts for producers. The most common sources of infection include pens, feed and water that are contaminated with Brahcyspira pilosicoli as well as infected personnel and equipment.

Poultry
In poultry, infection with Brachyspira pilosicoli causes a characteristic disease called avian intestinal spirochetosis (AIS). The disease is associated with severe watery diarrhea and reduced productivity. The disease occurs most frequently in laying hens and breeding flocks. The risk of colonization with Brachyspira pilosicoli increases as birds age. Therefore, it is unlikely to see AIS in broiler chickens because the birds are typically slaughtered before they come in contact with the bacteria. In layers, AIS results in decreased egg production, delayed onset of egg production, dirty eggs, reduced egg quality and increased mortality. Chicks hatched from hens colonized with Brachyspira pilosicoli have reduced growth rates and experiences wet feces. Avian intestinal spirochetosis has been reported globally. The reported global prevalence of the disease varies by country from 17% to 68%. Colonization with Brachyspira pilosicoli has been reported in other avian species, including

Humans
Infection with Brahcyspira pilosicoli causes human colonic spirochetosis, also termed intestinal spirochetosis. Clinical signs of the disease include diarrhea, headaches, bloating, cramping, rectal bleeding and colitis. However, the majority of infections are asymptomatic. Intestinal spirochetosis occurs more commonly in developing countries compared to developed countries. The prevalence of infection in developing countries varies based on the country and lifestyle. Epidemiological data from individuals living in Bali, Indonesia indicate that the prevalence of colonization is between 11-12%. Previous studies have shown that the prevalence of colonization can be as high as 20-25%. In developed countries, immunocompromised individuals, individuals living with HIV and homosexual men have an increased risk of infection. Colonization with Brahcyspira pilosicoli is often an incidental finding on rectal biopsy or fecal samples.

Sylvester Syropoulos

Sylvester (or Silvestros) Syropoulos (Σίλβεστρος Συρόπουλος; c. 1400 – aft. 1464) was a Byzantine official, the grand ecclesiarch (megas ekklesiarches) of the Hagia Sophia and the dikaiophylax of the Patriarchate of Constantinople. He was a native of Constantinople.

Syropoulos was a member of the Byzantine delegation to the Council of Florence in 1438–39. He signed the decree of union of the Latin and Greek churches. Upon his return to Constantinople, he claimed to have acted under duress and disavowed the union. He became a supporter Archbishop Mark of Ephesus, leader of the anti-unionist movement. In 1443, he composed his Memoirs (Ἀπομνημονεύματα, Apomnemoneumata), an important first-hand account of the council, especially of its behind-the-scenes intrigue. Although his account is biased against the council, he was not a fabricator and his partisanship is generally no worse than that of the council itself.

According to its most recent editor, his memoirs were redacted and reissued around 1461.

Dent Bridge

The Dent Bridge is a suspension bridge in the northwest United States, located in north central Idaho in Clearwater County, north of Orofino. It is 17 mi up the North Fork of the Clearwater River, now Dworshak Reservoir. Completed in 1971 at a cost of $7,848,950, it has a main span of 1050 ft, and an overall length of 1550 ft.

History
Built in conjunction with the Dworshak Dam by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers during the early 1970s, this bridge provides local access over the flooded river, now Dworshak Reservoir. It replaced a smaller bridge which crossed the river prior to the flooding by the reservoir. Without the bridge, vehicle access from Ahsahka to the small community of Elk River would be blocked off. The Corps of Engineers carefully weighed the possibilities for getting traffic to Elk River from the Orofino side of the Clearwater River. Building a new road all the way around the 53 mi long reservoir would not only be expensive, cutting into miles and miles of extremely rocky terrain, but would also be a painful inconvenience for travelers. The only reasonable answer was a bridge somewhere in the middle of the future reservoir. The exact location was based on the topography most suitable for road access as well as for the bridge construction itself.

The bridge takes its name from Charles and Katherine Dent, who in 1895 owned land on the western side of where the bridge now stands. The settlement of Dent was razed prior to being flooded by the reservoir.

Croaking gourami

The croaking gourami (Trichopsis vittata) is a species of small freshwater labyrinth fish of the gourami family. They are native to still waters in Southeast Asia and are distributed worldwide via the aquarium trade. Croaking gouramis are capable of producing a "croaking" noise using their pectoral fins.

General
Croaking gouramis can reach an average size of about 5 centimeters, though some individuals can grow as large as 6 or 7 centimeters. Coloration is highly variable, ranging from pale brown and green to dark purple with black or red spots on the fins. 2-4 brown or black stripes or rows of spots are present on their sides. Median fins have a thin iridescent blue coloration on their edges. The iris of the eye is bright blue or purple. Females tend to be paler than males, have a slightly rounded dorsal fin and a shorter anal fin. Most croaking gouramis live for about 2 years but with proper care can live as long as 5 in an aquarium setting. They are native to stillwater habitats including ponds, canals and paddy fields in Java, Borneo, Sumatra, Malaya, Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, and Vietnam. A breeding population is known to exist in a series of drainage ditches in Palm Beach County, Florida, USA, almost certainly introduced there through the aquarium industry.

As their name suggests, croaking gouramis are capable of producing an audible grunting or chirping noise, accomplished through the use of specialized adaptations of their pectoral fins. These noises are produced by both sexes during breeding displays and during the establishment of dominance hierarchies among males. A typical showdown between males consists of each fish circling the other, flaring fins, aggressively darting (though rarely making contact), and producing croaking noises. Well matched individuals may continue this behaviour for several hours at a time.

In aquaria
Croaking gouramis are fairly shy, peaceful fish that do well in most community aquaria and do not cause problems with other tankmates. Males can be fairly territorial and aggressive with each other during breeding periods, but will not cause harm given a large enough aquarium, and usually males comfortably coexist. They require a tank no smaller than 40 litres (10 US gallons), preferably larger, and each pair of males will need about 20 inches of space to feel comfortable with one another. Croaking gouramis will prowl about all areas of the aquarium, preferring to lurk among reeds and under large leaves close to the water surface. At night, they might be found "sleeping" at the bottom, even resting on the substrate (which is not normally a cause for concern), or hovering motionless at the water surface.

Like all members of the suborder Anabantoidei, the croaking gourami can breathe atmospheric oxygen from above the water surface using a specialized labyrinth organ if necessary. It is important, therefore, that the surface of the water be exposed to fresh air, usually accomplished by keeping them in an open-top tank or using a hood that allows air ventilation. If the tank has good air pumps, this is not always needed, since the air pumps will refresh the air above the water. Very cold air temperatures at the water surface may lead to infections of the labyrinth organ.

The aquarium should be heavily planted and have at least part of the surface shaded by broad leaves or floating plants. Croaking gouramis will become severely stressed in bare tanks without various hiding places. A darker substrate will make them feel comfortable and help show off their subtle colors. Like most gouramis, these fish are susceptible to diseases and infections, so regular water changes are a must. They are tolerant of fairly high temperatures. This can be used to eliminate fish diseases such as ich from the aquarium. Temperatures of 84 °F (29 °C) are easily tolerated though 26 °C seems to be close to optimal. A pH of 6.8 is about right and peat filtration is often recommended.

Croaking gouramis should not be kept with large, aggressive fish, but are compatible with other small, peaceful fish as well as with fellow gouramis. They will be targeted by male Bettas so they should not be kept with them. They are very sensitive to noise and the tank should be in a quiet area.

Diet
In the wild, croaking gouramis are mostly insectivorous, feeding on insects and insect larvae, however other food types, such as zooplankton, crustaceans, shrimp meat and occasionally plant matter, are eaten as well. In aquaria, a varied diet is important to their long-term health; standard flake foods along with regular supplements of freeze-dried bloodworms, tubifex worms, brine shrimp, and some algae-based flakes will provide these fish with proper nutrition. Occasional feedings of live brine shrimp offer the aquarist an opportunity to observe the natural hunting behaviour of croaking gouramis.

Breeding
Sex can be most reliably determined by candling but the more common approach is to observe the shape of the dorsal fin: the male's dorsal fin is pointed, while the female's is rounded. The male croaking gourami is a bubblenest builder, creating a small nest from air bubbles and mucous under a leaf. The water level should be reduced to 8 inches during spawning, circulation kept minimal, and the temperature should be approximately 28 °C (82 °F). Spawning occurs under the nest, with the female responding to the male's dance by rolling over, followed by the typical gourami embrace. About 5 to 10 eggs are released in a quick burst. The male will grab the eggs and spit them into the nest, often adding a few more bubbles for good measure. This act may be repeated a dozen times or more, until about 100 eggs are laid. Some large females may lay more than 200. After spawning the female should be moved to a different tank. The male will keep the bubblenest maintained and tend to the eggs and fry, but when the fry are 2–3 days old the male should also be removed. When first hatched, the fry should be fed infusoria, and later, baby brine shrimp and finely ground flakes. Freeze-dried tablets may also be fed to older fry. It is important that the breeding and grow-out tanks be covered and protected from cool drafts, as low air temperatures above the water surface may cause damage to the developing labyrinth organs of the young fish when they begin to take gulps of air.

The Black Douglas (novel)

The Black Douglas is a historical fantasy novel by the Scottish author Samuel Rutherford Crockett published in 1899. It features the historical figures William Douglas, 6th Earl of Douglas (the "Black Douglas"), and Gilles de Retz ("Bluebeard"), though in reality they never met. It is set in Scotland and France in the fifteenth century and blends history with supernatural elements. The novel is cited as an influence for J.R.R. Tolkien's The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings.

Synopsis

The young Earl William of Douglas stops by Malise McKim's smithy to get his horse shod. Malise's sons, Sholto and Laurence, are also there. Earl William rides on into the evening and meets a beautiful young woman. She leads him to a pavilion in the forest. She says she is part of a French delegation and suggests that he accompanies her to Edinburgh, which he rejects. The seduction is interrupted by Malise and the Abbot of Dulce Cor who insist the woman is a witch. Earl William is dragged away against his will.

Earl William holds a wapenshaw at Threave Castle, the Douglas stronghold. Laurence pleases the Abbott with his singing and joins the Abbey. Sholto becomes Captain of the Guard. He is in love with Maud, the companion of Margaret Douglas, Fair Maid of Galloway, Earl William's younger sister. A French delegation led by Gilles de Retz arrives. In the delegation is the mysterious woman, who Earl William learns is named Lady Sybilla. In the night, a wolf-like creature invades the chamber of Margaret and Maud. Sholto wounds it as it escapes. On the third day, they hold a melee. De Retz moves to target Earl William, but Sholto steps in to defend him. The Frenchman is knocked unconscious. His armour is stripped off, revealing he has a wound similar to that given to the wolf-like creature. Sholto is knighted.

A week or two later, De Retz, Sir Alexander Livingston, Lord Chancellor William Crichton, and James, Earl of Avondale hold a council in Stirling Castle. They all agree on the need to get rid of Earl William, who is too powerful. Lady Sybilla is revealed as the secret weapon who will lure him to Edinburgh. Earl William receives letters from Crichton and Lady Sybilla, convincing him, against the advice of others, to go to Crichton Castle. His younger brother David, Sholto, and some men-at-arms accompany him. Earl William and Lady Sybilla spend a lot of time together alone. She warns him to leave, he refuses, and she declares her love for him. The next morning, he finds De Retz and Lady Sybilla have left for Edinburgh. He receives a message from Lady Sybilla, telling him not to follow her and to forget her. Though Sholto argues against him, he decides to follow her to Edinburgh.

Earl William is welcomed to a banquet with the young King James in Edinburgh Castle. He is served with the head of a black bull, the symbol of death. (This was a real historical event known as the Black Dinner.) Earl William is accused of treason, over the protests of the king. He, David, and Sholto are imprisoned. In the night, Malise, Laurence, and others try to rescue them, but the Earl refuses to leave the Lady Sybilla, and David refuses to leave him. The Earl orders Sholto to escape and raise the troops. The next morning, Earl William is put on trial. Under questioning by De Retz, Lady Sybilla admits that she had persuaded Earl William to come to Edinburgh to his death. Regardless, Earl William declares his love for her. He and David are beheaded.

Sholto and the others raise the Clan Douglas, who march against Edinburgh. He meets Lady Sybilla, pale with grief. She tells him to watch out for Maud and Magaret. When he returns to Threave, they have disappeared. Malise, Sholto, Laurence, and James of Douglas, Earl William's cousin, go to France, convinced that De Retz has kidnapped Maud and Margaret. They capture a ruffian, who happens to be in the service of De Retz. Without telling the others, Laurence frees him and joins the service of De Retz.

The others head to De Retz's Castle of Machecoul. They stay at the home of an old man, who warns them of his wife, La Meffraye. In the night, the old man is killed by a wolf. They escape and fight off a pack of werewolves. Meanwhile, inside the castle, Laurence discovers an iron altar on which De Retz conducts Satanic sacrifices of children. La Meffraye is one of his servants. Lady Sybilla finds the others in the forest and gives them a list of children killed by De Retz. She also reveals she has second sight. They rouse the peasants and convince the Duke of Brittany to lead his army against the castle. They rescue Margaret and Maud. The soldiers arrest De Retz, who is tried and executed. Maud and Sholto agree to get married.

Sequel
Crockett published a sequel, Maid Margaret, following the life of Margaret Douglas, in 1905.

Reception
Crockett was a best-selling novelist in his day, and The Black Douglas was one of his most famous books.

Legacy
The fantasy author J.R.R. Tolkien wrote of being impressed as a boy by The Black Douglas. He said he based the battle with the wargs in The Lord of the Rings on Crockett's battle with werewolves. However Tolkien said that he hadn't read the novel as an adult. Scholar Douglas A. Anderson has drawn parallels with the attack of the wargs in The Hobbit. In addition, in his opinion, the ending of the chapter "The Battle of the Werewolves" in The Black Douglas is similar to the end of "The Siege of Gondor" in The Lord of the Rings. Jared Lobdell has suggested The Black Douglas's overall style and imagery had an influence on Tolkien, and that De Retz inspired Tolkien's character, Sauron. Sholto's secret mail-coat may have inspired Frodo's mithril coat.

Talk:Jose

Jose is not José
There should be two separate articles, and two separate talk pages. No reason for this page to lead to the other talk page. Quickmythril (talk) 06:49, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

Merge?
This is a questionable split. Most of the names in the list are Filipinos, Spaniards, Puerto Ricans, Cubans.... which presumably are not people with a Hebrew or Aramaic background as the lede of this page suggests. Both "Jose" and "José" share the same etymological link to "Joseph" and as much as it would lengthen an already long list, there is no reason to keep the two separate. <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 22:45, 12 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Oppose, on the grounds that the names are culturally distinct and warrant separate coverage; the problems seems to be the current content, which could be be tied (removing the misplaced names) rather than merging. Klbrain (talk) 09:23, 8 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Closing, given the uncontested objection (admittedly mine!) and no support. Klbrain (talk) 08:57, 4 June 2022 (UTC)

Apache Oakenshield (aka "Katie") is the most beautiful girl on the planet. Shes there for you when you need her, and she will never leave your side. She makes you feel like you are in the clouds when you're around her. When you're not around her you get an odd feeling of loneliness.

The result was speedy close as out-of-process. Page moved, as it seems uncontroversial. For future reference the correct forum for this kind of request is WP:RM, not AfD. – filelakeshoe )³ 14:26, 21 September 2017 (UTC)

Shade 45 (Eminem)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Delete per G6, as the proper topic title is Shade 45, without the parenthetical reference to Eminem. Binksternet (talk) 02:54, 21 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Move to Shade 45 over redirect. Subject is clearly notable, with quite a few RS available (only a few actually in the article but even that is enough). WP:G6 should be applied to the redirect so this article can be properly moved; it definitely does not apply to this article.  C Thomas3   (talk) 04:01, 21 September 2017 (UTC)

Wikijunior:Solar System/Oort Cloud

The Oort cloud is a huge halo made of millions of comets that lies at the outermost edge of the Solar System.

What is the Oort Cloud?
Scientists say there is a distant group of objects, made of rock and ice, that forms a cloud-like region surrounding our Solar System. It is a cloud of comet-like objects orbiting far away from the Sun. Even though the comets are very widely scattered from each other, there many millions of them. The total mass of all these comets may be up to 100 times the mass of the Earth. The Oort Cloud is named after a Dutch astronomer Jan Oort who took the original idea, improved upon it and made it widely known.

As a comet makes several passes through the solar system, the Sun slowly melts and vaporizes the ice and only little bits of solid debris are left behind. But if the comets are all destroyed when they pass through the system, then new comets will need to appear. Otherwise we would not see any more comets. Jan Oort used the idea of the Oort cloud to explain why new comets keep appearing.

Where is the Oort Cloud?
If you can imagine the distance from the Earth to the Sun, then the comets in the Oort cloud are 50,000 to 100,000 times further away! That is 1,000 times further away from the Sun than is Pluto, and about one fourth the distance to the nearest neighboring star—Proxima Centauri. Light takes a year to travel from the Sun to the outer edge of the Oort Cloud.

How did the Oort Cloud start?
The Oort cloud objects may have started closer to the Sun during the Solar System's formation. When they passed near the gas giants, the gravity of those planets hurled the objects into very distant orbits. The Oort cloud objects were sent in all directions, making the Oort cloud ball-shaped instead of disk-shaped. The gravity of passing stars also made the orbits of these objects more circular, and pulled them further from the Sun. But sometimes the gravity of other far away stars can send the objects hurtling back toward the Sun. These become the comets.

What objects are in the Oort Cloud?
An object named Sedna has been discovered that may belong to the Oort Cloud (although it is actually between the Kuiper Belt and the Oort Cloud.) It is from 1,180 to 1,800 km across. Its orbit stretches from 76 to 928 times further from the Sun than does the Earth's. Sedna orbits the Sun about once every 11,250 Earth years. The last time Sedna was where it is now in its orbit, Earth's last Ice Age was ending! Some scientists think that Sedna should be included in the Kuiper Belt, making the belt bigger.
