Cookbook:Chiles

| Herbs and Spices | Chilli The chile or chile pepper is the spicy fruit of the plant capsicum. To avoid confusion, this cookbook—like several other sources  —uses "chile" with an "e" to refer to the pure chile pepper (either fresh or processed), and "chili" with an "i" to refer to the stew and its associates such as the spice blend chili powder. However, do know that the spellings can be ambiguous in other sources, and make sure to use the correct ingredient required in a given recipe.

Characteristics
With many varieties, chiles come in a wide array of shapes, sizes, and colors. They are all hollow, with crisp watery flesh, tapered ends, and inner seeds. The shape can be long, rounded, narrow, wrinkled, and more, with colors ranging from greens (when unripe) to yellows, oranges, and reds of various shades.

Chiles are infamous for their spicy heat, which is caused by the substance capsaicin found in the chile's inner membrane. This compound triggers heat sensors in the body to cause pain and inflammation when consumed. The "heat" is measured in Scoville Heat Units (SHU) and varies according to chile variety and growing seasons   —bell peppers rank at 0 SHU, jalapeños at 3000–6000 SHU, and habaneros at 300,000 SHU. Heat aside, fresh chiles also have fruity and vegetal flavors that vary between varieties.

Chiles may be dried —whereupon they may be given new names —and can be processed to make smoked chiles, chile flakes, chili powder, chili pastes, and more. During these processes, they may gain and/or lose flavors according to the preparation method.

Varieties
Chile varieties are derived from cultivars of four primary species: Capsicum annuum (e.g. jalapeños); Capsicum frutescens (e.g. cayenne), Capsicum chinense (e.g. habaneros), Capsicum pubescens (e.g. rocoto), and Capsicum baccatum (e.g. ají amarillo).

Selection and storage
Select fresh chiles like you would many other fresh vegetables. The flesh and skin should be firm, crisp, and unblemished. Overly soft or wrinkled skin indicates chiles past their prime. High-quality dried chiles should still have some moisture, much like raisins, and should not feel like paper or cardboard.

Fresh chiles should be stored in the refrigerator for several days. They can also be frozen after chopping, though this will destroy their fresh texture—frozen chiles should be used puréed and/or cooked. Dried chiles should be stored in an airtight container away from light and heat for several months. Chile powders lose their complex aromas during storage and are primarily used to contribute heat to a dish.

Preparation
To prepare all chiles for use, remove the tough stem. The inner membrane can be removed to reduce the heat if desired. The seeds, while not very spicy, are bitter and may also be removed accordingly. Dried chiles may be toasted to amplify their flavors.

Safety
Be very cautious in handling chiles, and do not touch your eyes or any other sensitive body part after handling. For some especially strong chiles, it is advisable to wear gloves while handling them and to wash the hands with soap immediately after.

Use
Chiles are eaten cooked or raw for the hot flavor they contribute to dishes. Though unknown to the Old World prior to colonization of the Americas, chiles have become well integrated into many European, Asian, and African cuisines, which originally used peppercorn and other spices for heat. Well-known dishes with a strong chile flavor include salsa, New Mexican chili con carne and Indian vindaloo.

To tame their heat, chiles are often paired with foods high in fat and protein (such as dairy), which both help interrupt the capsaicin binding to the body's receptors—water will not help. Acidic ingredients make the heat more intense. People who are regularly exposed to a lot of chile become less sensitized to the heat over time, so make sure to tailor the spice level of your dishes to the specific palate of the diner.

Botany/Bryology

Chapter 11. Bryology ~ The Liverworts and Mosses

Bryology is the study of nonvascular complex plants classified in the Division Bryophyta.

The Bryophytes have several adaptations that allow them to grow on land, but are still tied to moisture for their reproduction. Their size is also restricted because they do not have vascular tissues, which limits their height and keeps them close to the nutrition and moisture of the ground. Rhizoids anchor them to the ground, but do not conduct water or nutrients as roots do. Some mosses have developed pores, but they do not open and close as stomata do.

Most mosses look like undifferentiated green mold on rocks, but while they are non vascular, they have complex forms and parts. They have what appear to be leaves coming off their stalks, but are not leaves because they have no veins. Most notable in their anatomy is the peculiarity of their life cycle. The haploid organism is actually most of what we would call the moss. That green mat is the gameteophyte contains half of the DNA, or one full set of chromosomes. When the female gametophyte is fertilized with motile sperm from the male gametophyte, the diploid sporophyte grows directly out of the gametophyte. So out of an ordinary spiky green moss stalk, a tall curved stalk grows, with a large cap on it. That structure is the sporophyte. It will produce spores (that are haploid) that will propagate more haploid mosses. Each successive evolutionary adaptation of plants has reduced the haploid stage in size, and increased the diploid, or sporophyte stage. In ferns, the next evolutionary innovation based in bryophytes, the gametophyte stage functions the same way as here, the haploid spores make a haploid organism, which after fertilization grows a full diploid sporophyte from it. However, what we know as a fern is the diploid organism, the gametophyte is a very small heart shaped organism at the base of the fern. Read:
 * Bryophyta
 * Mosses (Musci)
 * Liverworts (Marchantiopsida)
 * Hornworts (Anthocerotae)

Questions 11.1 Out of the mosses, the liverworts and the hornworts, do any of these have seeds? 11.2 How are bryophytes similar to the algae? How are they different? 11.3 How is a spore different from a seed? How many sets of chromosomes does a spore have (1N or 2N)?

BAIC BJ90

The BAIC BJ90 or Beijing BJ90 is a full-size luxury SUV produced from 2016 to 2023. It is based on the second generation Mercedes-Benz GL-Class which has been renamed to GLS-Class as of the 2016 facelift.

Due to the Beijing-Benz joint venture Beijing Auto and Daimler Mercedes-Benz has, and Daimler owns a 12% stake in BAIC Motor, the parent company of the Beijing Automobiles brand, BAIC was able to acquire the specs of the Mercedes-Benz SUV as the foundation for the BJ90.

The SUV retails at around 988,000 yuan (US$141,870).

1st Generation (2016-2020)
Originally seen in 2015, the BJ90 debuted at an event in Beijing in August 2017  and later went on sale in 2018.

Offered in five trim levels, the BJ90 is currently priced from 710,800 yuan to 998,000 yuan (US$101,600 to US$142,780 - July 2020 exchange rate).

The drivetrain of the BJ90 is sourced from Mercedes-Benz with two engines including a 3.0-litre M276 DE 30 LA twin-turbo V6 engine producing 333 hp and 480 Nm from the GL 400, and a 4.0-litre M176 twin-turbo V8 engine with 421 hp and 600 Nm. Compared to the GL-Class, the BJ90 is 1902 mm taller, 1995 mm wider and 5171 mm longer.

Transmission is the Mercedes-sourced seven-speed automatic gearbox sending power to all four wheels via the Mercedes-Benz 4Matic four-wheel-drive system. Its accessories are also sources from Mercedes.

Facelift
The BJ90 was made available from 2020 onwards with a 9G-Tronic option. This version is known as the BJ90 Shanhe Edition, a cheaper version of the BJ90 that's sold with black color only.

Sales
In 2019, 258 BJ90s were sold. 267 BJ90s were sold in 2020 and 1,563 BJ90s were sold in 2021.

Morris Oxford bullnose

The "bullnose" Morris Oxford is a series of motor car models produced by British manufacturer Morris from 1913 to 1926. It was named by W R Morris after the city in which he grew up and which his cars were to industrialise.

Oxford bullnose (1913–1916)
William Morris's first car was called Oxford in recognition of its home city. It was announced in The Autocar magazine in October 1912 and production began in March 1913. Because he had a limited amount of capital and was unwilling to share ownership of his business little was made in-house. Virtually all components were bought-in and assembled by Morris. It was a small car with a 1018 cc four-cylinder side-valve engine with fixed cylinder head from White & Poppe. Ignition was by a Bosch magneto.

The chassis made by Rubery Owen was of pressed-steel construction and suspension was by leaf springs, semi-elliptic at the front and longer three-quarter elliptic at the rear slung above the axle. The welded single piece banjo rear axle with splined half shafts was driven by a Wrigley Worm. The front axle was of forged steel and, like the back axle assembly and the steering, was made by Wrigley. The brakes, on the rear wheels only, were the external contracting type, metal to metal, using four shoes in each drum. A White & Poppe three-forward and reverse gearbox was fitted. The Powell & Hanmer headlamps were acetylene and the side and tail lamps oil. The windscreen, by Auster Limited of Barford Street, Birmingham, like the lamps was classed as an accessory.

The car got its popular name, Bullnose, from its distinctive round-topped radiator at first called the bullet nose. Most bodies, made by Raworth of Oxford, were of the two-seat open-tourer type. There was also a van version, but the chassis did not allow four-seat bodies to be fitted, as it was not strong enough and too short.

Bullnose de luxe
It was first displayed at the Olympia Motor Show which opened 7 November 1913. The standard model remained in production unchanged. The new de luxe had a longer wheelbase, 90 in, and track was now 45 in.

The range of bodies was now expanded from the simple two-seater to include even a limousine and a sporting car which, like the vans, had no windscreen or doors but was provided with a speedometer as a standard fitting.

Its front axle and steering had been re-designed to reduce "bump-steer"and its radiator capacity increased. Grooved tyres were now supplied at the rear. The banjo back axle was no longer welded but built up from three pieces and its springs were now slung below it.

Trial of the Morris-Oxford Light Car
In April 1914 interested readers of The Times were asked to remember the suggested solution to anxiety amongst British manufacturers brought about by the influx of cheaper American vehicles. The suggestion was to have British firms co-operate producing a certain part or parts of the complete mechanism later assembled and sold by a joint undertaking. The Morris-Oxford Light Car, it was explained to readers, was produced on a similar principle. The engine clutch and gearbox were from the works of White & Poppe, the rear axle and the rest of the transmission from Wrigley's.

Of his trial The Times's correspondent reported happy results. Everything was characterised by extreme "up-to-dateness" and the vehicle lacked scarcely any amenity of the largest and most expensive car.

"In general the Morris-Oxford car showed itself to be a speedy and sweet running little car with good hill-climbing powers and an unusual quality of engine flexibility. It is free from any trickiness in handling and is characterised by a general robustness of construction which is very commendable"

Because of this car's significance to Britain's new motor industry the points made by The Times's correspondent are summarised below:

 * engine: "runs reasonably sweetly at all speeds" despite its small size requiring extremely high r.p.m. to provide full power
 * flexibility: as little as 4 m.p.h. could be handled in top direct gear. When the throttle is opened the engine gives better acceleration than might be expected
 * speed: the greatest speed on level ground was little short of 50 m.p.h.
 * roadholding: it holds the road very comfortably when travelling fast
 * frame distortion due to rough roads: is not communicated to the single unit of the engine, multiple-disc clutch mechanism and gearbox
 * gearbox: gear changes were easy and quiet at all speeds but the gears themselves were noisy on all but top gear
 * clutch: free of chatter or jar it worked easily and sweetly
 * worm-driven rear axle: makes the transmission when in top gear "as noiseless as in the largest and most luxurious vehicles"
 * brakes: both hand and foot brakes applied directly to the rear wheels. The car pulled up swiftly, completely free of harshness
 * accelerator pedal: controls the engine speed. An ingenious device allows the setting of slow running by screwing the head of the pedal on its stem
 * comfort: well sprung it leaves little to be desired by driver or passenger when compared to others of its class despite the short wheelbase
 * steering: is easy
 * body: seats two people comfortably, the makers have "realised the importance of an eyeable and practical neatness"
 * windscreen: single folding. Windscreen brackets support the side lamps and anchor the hood straps
 * equipment: 2 acetylene head lights, 3 oil lamps (side and tail), horn, pump, jack, tools and a spare detachable wheel.
 * wheels: Sankey steel

Cowley
The American engined Continental Cowley, with most other significant components US sourced, shown to the press in April 1915, was a 50 percent larger engined (1495 cc against 1018 cc), longer, wider and better equipped version of this Morris Oxford with the same "Bullnose" radiator.

The Cowley's stronger and larger construction could carry a four-passenger body.

Oxford bullnose (1919–1926)
The 1919 Oxford (advertised as early as September 1918) was assembled from locally made components and now took on the rather more substantial aspect of 1915's Cowley. Longer and stronger than the old Oxford, enough to carry five passengers, the new Oxford retained the pre-war Bullnose radiator style in its larger version.

From August 1919, the Cowley became the downmarket "no frills" variant with only a 2-seater body and lighter smaller tyres. The Oxford had a self-starter (an extra for the Cowley) and a better electrical system and the Oxford took and kept the Cowley's leather upholstery.

The new car's 11.9 fiscal horsepower 1548 cc engine was made under licence in Coventry for Morris by a British branch of Hotchkiss the French ordnance company which was turning away from guns to the motor industry. The Hotchkiss engine used the Cowley's Detroit USA Continental Motors Company design. Hotchkiss prices well undercut White and Poppe who had made Oxford engines up to that time. Morris bought Hotchkiss's British factory in May 1923 and named it Morris Engines.

When it was shown at the Scottish Motor Show in January 1920 it drew large crowds of enthusiasts all day. The chassis alone was shown and was genuinely admired for the way all transmission, everything revolving, was fully enclosed in what amounts to an oil bath, everything but the fan belt. A few weeks later after a lengthy trial of the new car The Times' motoring reporter wrote that the car represents "a very decided advance in light car construction". The common sense of the designers is shown in many small details but "its greatest charm is in the engine's steam-like flexibility" and liveliness. In these respects it was the best engine the writer had ever encountered.

MG version
The bodies were made by Carbodies Limited of Coventry. At first panelled entirely in aluminium in 1925 and 1926 aluminium was reserved for the lower part of the body and mudguards and scuttle were then steel.

Very high-speed engine
In July 1921 The Times reported on one of "the best makes of British light car of modern design" writing that the 11.9 hp Morris Oxford could attain a speed of around 45 miles an hour on the level. Indeed, the car ran up Arms Hill, a gradient of about 1 in 4, "without flinching".

14/28
In 1923 the engine was enlarged to 13.9 fiscal horsepower, 1802 cc. This became known as the 14/28 engine. In 1925 it got a longer wheelbase chassis to move it further from the Cowley, and four-wheel brakes. This model of the Oxford would be the basis of the first MG, the 14/28 Super Sports.

Reviewed by The Times in March 1924 the enlarged engine was reported to be "commendably flexible" and quiet. It seemed to enjoy being made to turn over at high speed and that happened easily, certainly it had plenty of "courage". The oil filler's lid holds a dipper rod and forms a breather but there is still no filter at this point. The main strainer can only be withdrawn after removing a plug in the bottom of the sump. The clutch was good. There is no safety stop for reverse but the gear box was pronounced the chief delight on the car, it is "simple, quiet and expeditious". The accelerator is too sensitive. As before the brake handle was too far away. The car was "easy to travel in". Difficult to avoid on an 8' 6" wheelbase but passengers' coats sweep dusty or muddy wings on entry and exit. The dynamotor (starter-dynamo) sings (gently) at speed. For the price the equipment is very full.

At the next October's Olympia Motor Show the cars were shown with front wheel brakes, to a design by Rubury, as an optional extra at £10. The brake pedal now applied all four-wheel brakes, a separate hand lever controlled brakes at the rear. The list of accessories provided as standard equipment now extended to a 12 months full insurance policy. The reporter advised the driver's entrance appeared somewhat cramped. The claimed brake horsepower was 30.

At the Motor Show 1925 the 14/28 power output was reported to be 34 bhp and four-wheel brakes were standard, the same car had Barker dipping headlamps and thermostatic control of its engine's cooling water.

The Times tried the 14/28 again and reported to its readers in mid January 1926 that while there may now be better designs of light car the 14/28 represented great value for money and still came with insurance for its first twelve months. A petrol gauge on the dash and an "automatic screen wiper", two horns and a proper rear windscreen. There was still no filter in the oil filler. The same complaints were made as in previous reports yet the car's general behaviour on the road was considered "praiseworthy".

Talk:Deborah Norville

Untitled
This article uses words like "endearing" and "prestigious" in ways that suggest the author is biased in favor of Norville. In addition, in parts it is structured as a defense of Norville - her breast-feeding is "seemingly innocuous," she "In truth" was not in a managerial capacity, etc. Even the intro goes out of its way to highlight her strengths, which isn't the point of Wikipedia article. I'll make some fixes, but the article needs the attention of an expert. <IP_ADDRESS> 02:26, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

This is about tag cleanup. As all of the tags are more than a year old, there is no current discussion relating to them, and there is a great deal of editing done since the tags were placed, they will be removed. This is not a judgement of content. If there is cause to re-tag, then that of course may be done, with the necessary posting of a discussion as to why, and what improvements could be made. This is only an effort to clean out old tags, and permit them to be updated with current issues if warranted.Jjdon (talk) 18:46, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

Need confirmation for Emmy awards
I have cleaned up this article, improved its tone, removed most of the unencyclopedic chatter, and added a couple of references so that it is no longer an "unreferenced biopgraphy of a living person". But I was completely unable to substantiate her claim to be a two-time Emmy award winner. She refers to herself that way, and so do non-authoritative internet sources like Wikipedia and IMDB. But I was not able to find those awards in any WP:RS reliable source. If this information is true, it should be featured much more prominently in this article, along with the details - what year? in what category? national or local? did she win it herself, or was it awarded to a program she was part of? If not true, or not verifiable by an outside source, it should be deleted. --MelanieN (talk) 17:25, 25 February 2010 (UTC)

 * Emmy awards duly cited, but you're right-- that one was a toughy! I found a 2007 mention from Forbes with some specifics, but no dates. However, since they were awarded for her work prior to joining Inside Edition, they must be prior to 1995. Going to the source for News and Documentary Emmy Awards, there were press releases from only the last five years, and the "Winners/Nominees" link doesn't link to anything. The Primetime Emmy website has a searchable database that goes back to 1949, but I guess a similar engine for News and Documentary must still be under construction. --Rnickel (talk) 19:48, 25 February 2010 (UTC)

 * Wow, great sleuthing! I moved that item to the intro, now that it is confirmed. (Two Emmy awards hardly qualify as trivia.). Good work! --MelanieN (talk) 02:28, 26 February 2010 (UTC)

USA-128

USA-128, also known as GPS IIA-18, GPS II-27 and GPS SVN-30, is an American navigation satellite which forms part of the Global Positioning System. It was the eighteenth of nineteen Block IIA GPS satellites to be launched.

Background
Global Positioning System (GPS) was developed by the U.S. Department of Defense to provide all-weather round-the-clock navigation capabilities for military ground, sea, and air forces. Since its implementation, GPS has also become an integral asset in numerous civilian applications and industries around the globe, including recreational used (e.g., boating, aircraft, hiking), corporate vehicle fleet tracking, and surveying. GPS employs 24 spacecraft in 20,200 km circular orbits inclined at 55.0°. These vehicles are placed in 6 orbit planes with four operational satellites in each plane.

GPS Block 2 was the operational system, following the demonstration system composed of Block 1 (Navstar 1 - 11) spacecraft. These spacecraft were 3-axis stabilized, nadir pointing using reaction wheels. Dual solar arrays supplied 710 watts of power. They used S-band (SGLS) communications for control and telemetry and Ultra high frequency (UHF) cross-link between spacecraft. The payload consisted of two L-band navigation signals at 1575.42 MHz (L1) and 1227.60 MHz (L2). Each spacecraft carried 2 rubidium and 2 Cesium clocks and nuclear detonation detection sensors. Built by Rockwell Space Systems for the U.S. Air force, the spacecraft measured 5.3 m across with solar panels deployed and had a design life of 7.5 years.

Launch
USA-128 was launched at 08:49:00 UTC on 12 September 1996, atop a Delta II launch vehicle, flight number D238, flying in the 7925-9.5 configuration. The launch took place from Launch Complex 17A (LC-17A) at the Cape Canaveral Air Force Station (CCAFS), and placed USA-128 into a transfer orbit. The satellite raised itself into medium Earth orbit using a Star-37XFP apogee motor.

Mission
On 17 October 1996, USA-128 was in an orbit with a perigee of 20058 km, an apogee of 20305 km, a period of 717.94 minutes, and 54.7° of inclination to the equator. It broadcasts the PRN 30 signal, and operates in slot 2 of plane B of the GPS constellation. The satellite has a mass of 840 kg. It had a design life of 7.5 years, and was decommissioned on 20 July 2011.

Norwegian/Introduction

Welcome to the course
Welcome to a course in Norwegian. When you have completed this course, you should have enough knowledge to speak, read and write the language rather well. In order to learn a language properly, you must take action, you must do something. So I suggest, after you've learnt the basics, that you look up some simple, easy Norwegian literature, and start reading. Knowing what is easy is not easy if you don't know any Norwegian at all though. If you know somebody who is Norwegian, they might be able to help you to some nice reading. I will also try to put up some links to read like easy articles here later.

General remarks about Norwegian
Written Norwegian is, in contrast to English, very close to pronunciation in spelling. This means that, like Spanish, it is always possible to guess how a word is pronounced in Norwegian. Although Norwegian can only be written in two ways, Bokmål and Nynorsk; how one speaks it is usually reflected in where you come from, by your dialect. There are nine vowels in Norwegian:

and 15 consonants:

The consonants c, q, w, x and z appear only in words of foreign origin.

Finally, there are 7 diphthongs:

Syllable division
Syllable division marks the natural break in a word. When you know where the syllables divide, you can divide a word into its natural sections. This makes speaking correctly easier. You also get a correct speech rhythm. The general rule for syllable division is that each syllable contains one vowel each.

Information about the language
First of all, if you're a native English speaker, German speaker, or native in any other Germanic language, learning Norwegian shouldn't be too difficult, as it will have some common traits with your own. I am not saying, however, that it will be easy just because of it.

Alphabet
The Norwegian alphabet is almost the same as in English, except for three additional letters, æ/Æ, ø/Ø and å/Å. These have no special function in sentences/words, they are normal letters, and you will see them in use nearly as much as any other letters would be in use in English.

Here's how to say the alphabet letter by letter (note that these are the names of the letters, not how they are pronounced when they appear in words): Wikipedia has more information about the use of the letters Æ, Ø, and Å.

Bokmål and Nynorsk
There are two official written forms of the Norwegian language. This specific course will teach you Bokmål, which is the most widely used (85%). However, the two forms are very similar and you should not have great difficulties in understanding written Nynorsk. For more information about this, check out the Wikipedia article on the Norwegian language.

Getting Started
Okay, if you're ready, all you gotta do is proceed to Lesson 1!

History of Quebec and Canada/Study Guide/Topic 2: Cartier's Voyages

Topic 2: Cartier's Voyages
Why did France send Jacques Cartier to explore North America ?

In the 15th century, Spain and Portugal began to explore America. Since they found gold and other riches in their new colonies, the —King of France also became interested — In 1524, an Italian named Giovanni da Verrazano was sent by the king of France to explore the east coast of North America. He hoped to find a route to China further to the north. He sailed northwards along the coast but failed to find the passage to China. Ten years later, in 1534, France sent Jacques Cartier to explore America.

His mission had three purposes:
 * 1) find a route to Asia
 * 2) bring back gold and other riches
 * 3) claim land for the king of France.

In 1534, Cartier explored and mapped the Gulf of St. Lawrence. On the banks of the Gaspé peninsula he erected a cross and claimed the land in the name of the king of France. He met friendly Natives willing to trade furs for trinkets. Although gold was not found, he reported the abundance of fish, timber and furs. He also felt that a wide river flowing from the west could be a promising route to China.

In 1535, Cartier arrived with three ships. He sailed up the big river which he named the St. Lawrence River.He reached the Indian villages of Stadacona (now Quebec) and Hochelaga (now Montreal). Friendly Natives showed the French explorers how to survive the cold and scurvy in the winter. Cartier and his men returned to France in 1536 bringing with them five Natives, including Chief Donacona. In 1541, Cartier returned and attempted to set up a colony near Stadacona. Missionaries hoped to convert the Natives to the Christian religion. The settlement however was abandoned in 1542 and France lost interest in the colony. No one returned for the next 60 years.

1. WHICH PAIR OF STATEMENTS DESCRIBES A GOAL OF FRANCE AND A RESULT OBTAINED BY JACQUES CARTIER?

A) GOAL-to find aaron.
 * RESULT-He proved that the world was round.

B) GOAL-To find a new route to Asia.
 * RESULT-He claimed territory in the name of France.

C) GOAL-To improve existing maps.
 * RESULT-He mapped the Canadian Shield

D) GOAL-To convert native populations.
 * RESULT-He brought back spices and silk.

2. A certain French explorer accomplished the following things during his voyages to America. He claimed territory in the name of the king of France. He made contact with the Amerindians. He explored and mapped the shores of the St. Lawrence River. WITH WHAT PERIOD OF HISTORY ARE THIS EXPLORER'S VOYAGES ASSOCIATED ?

A            B               C              D              /______________/______________/______________/_____________/

1400       1450            1500           1550          1600

3. WHAT WERE TWO RESULTS OF JACQUES CARTIER'S VOYAGES?

1. He established a permanent colony on the shores of the St. Lawrence River

2. He explored the Gulf of St. Lawrence and the St. Lawrence River. 3. He discovered a new route to Asia.

4. He brought back gold and spices. 5. He claimed the new territory for France.

Channel 4 Racing

Channel 4 Racing is the name given to the horse racing coverage on the British television stations Channel 4 and More4.

History
The first transmission of racing on the channel was on 22 March 1984 from Doncaster, as it took over midweek coverage that had previously been on ITV. On 5 October 1985, the week after World of Sport ended, Channel 4 took over ITV's Saturday afternoon coverage.

From the beginning of 1986, however, the amount of racing covered, especially on Saturday afternoons, was substantially reduced with coverage focussing on Newmarket, Epsom, Doncaster, York, Sandown Park, Kempton alongside visits to Ayr for the Scottish Grand National and Ayr Gold Cup meetings and Newcastle for the Eider Chase, Northumberland Plate and Fighting Fifth Hurdle. Race meetings dropped would be the small/medium tracks that were covered by World Of Sport Warwick, Nottingham, Market Rasen, Ripon, Beverley, Towcester, Stratford, Catterick, Fontwell, Plumpton, Redcar, Thirsk, Hereford, Lingfield Park, Hexham, Kelso, Worcester, Uttoxeter, Salisbury, Wincanton, Southwell, Windsor, Wolverhampton, Wetherby although the BBC occasionally televised meetings from those tracks mostly the Saturday cards on Grandstand (Most of these courses would return from around 1993). However, coverage from Chester was added in 1989, in 1995 Cheltenham was snatched from the BBC, in 2001 Epsom would switch to the BBC (Channel 4 would return with the Derby and Oaks in 2013), in 2002 Newbury joined the roster, 2007 Goodwood started being covered full time (after a period of being shared with the BBC), in 2008 came Haydock Park full time (after a few years of sharing with the BBC) and gained Ascot at first only the jumps meetings while the big flat meetings stayed with the BBC until 2012, 2011 Aintree would be added with the Becher Chase card (Aintree would come full time in 2013)

From the start of 2007, Channel 4 Racing mainly, but not exclusively, featured meetings from the Racing UK courses having initially signed a three-year contract which ran throughout 2007, 2008 and 2009. The contract guaranteed 80 days of racing each year on Channel 4. Coverage was sponsored by Totesport in 2006 and 2007, and by Dubai from 2008 to 2016.

From 2013, Channel 4 Racing became the exclusive home of free-to-air televised racing, having signed a four-year deal in March 2012. Coverage included all major races including The Derby, Cheltenham Festival and for the first time on Channel 4, the Grand National and Royal Ascot, and international races including the Dubai World Cup and the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe.

End of Channel 4 Racing
On 1 January 2016 it was announced that Channel 4 had lost their horse racing rights after 32 years to ITV who would have exclusive free to air rights to British horse racing from 1 January 2017. The reason for the change was said to be that ratings had dipped for most of the big meetings that used to be broadcast on the BBC up to 2012 since the move to Channel 4. Under the new deal ITV will show a minimum of 40 days of horse racing live on ITV, with a further 60 days a year live on ITV4, with ITV Sport also producing their own ITV Racing coverage rather than Independent Producers.

Initially, it was announced that Channel 4 would broadcast their final day of horse racing on 31 December 2016, with the rights moving to ITV on the following day. It was announced at the start of December 2016 however that the last day of racing would not be on 31 December. Owing to logistical problems, the last day of Channel 4 Racing was on 27 December 2016, when Channel 4 screened action from Kempton's Christmas meeting as well as the Welsh Grand National from Chepstow. As New Year's Eve fell on a Saturday that year, this meant it was the first Saturday in recent memory that horse racing was not shown on terrestrial television. Instead, pay channel Racing UK made its coverage available free to air for the day.

Coverage
Major UK events covered by Channel 4 included the 1,000 Guineas and 2,000 Guineas at Newmarket, the Derby and Oaks from Epsom and the St Leger at Doncaster, Royal Ascot and the Cheltenham Festival. These events have moved between the BBC, ITV and Channel 4 over the years.

Internationally, it has covered the Triple Crown, Arlington Million, Breeders' Cup in the USA, the Canadian International in Canada, Caulfield Cup, Cox Plate, Melbourne Cup in Australia, the Japan Cup in Japan, Hong Kong Cup in Hong Kong, the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe, Prix du Jockey Club, Prix de Diane in France, the Grosser Preis von Baden in Germany and the Dubai World Cup in the UAE some until Channel 4 showed them had not been seen on British TV. As well as the UK and Ireland Channel 4 has covered racing in 8 countries France, Germany, UAE, Japan, Hong Kong, Australia, USA and Canada.

The Morning Line
In October 1989, Channel 4 Racing launched a weekly Saturday morning preview programme. Called The Morning Line, the programme aired for 25 minutes as part of Channel 4's recently launched breakfast television service. The programme would later be expanded to run for 60 minutes. The programme aired every Saturday and was shown regardless of whether Channel 4 was televising horse racing later that day. The programme also provided tips and advice for the forthcoming day's racing. The show featured contributions from a panel of racing pundits. Every Saturday the team of pundits had a virtual £100 with which they make their charity bet selections for the day. The final edition of The Morning Line aired on 26 December 2016. ITV4 broadcasts The Opening Show, the morning preview programme similar to The Morning Line, on Saturday mornings.

Presenters
Since its inception in 1984, Channel 4 Racing featured many of racing's best known journalists and presenters, including Derek Thompson, Lesley Graham, John Francome, John Oaksey, John McCririck, Brough Scott, Mike Cattermole and Stewart Machin.

The line-up was refreshed by new production company IMG Sports Media in 2013. Former BBC anchor Clare Balding led coverage of major festivals such as Cheltenham, Aintree and Royal Ascot, whilst the rest of the time coverage was fronted by Nick Luck. Alice Plunkett and Emma Spencer filled in as presenters when both Balding and Luck were absent, and also served as interviewers and reporters on the programme alongside Gina Harding and Rishi Persad. Jim McGrath, Graham Cunningham, Mick Fitzgerald and occasionally former champion jockey AP McCoy provided analysis, whilst Tanya Stevenson, Brian Gleeson and Tom Lee were the programme's betting correspondents. After 2000 the senior commentator was Simon Holt, while Richard Hoiles commentated either at the second most important meeting of the day, or filled in for Holt when he was absent. Very occasionally Hoiles also acted as main presenter of the programme. Ian Bartlett was usually the third choice commentator.

Cookbook:Butternut Squash

Butternut squash or butternut pumpkin is a variety of winter squash.

Characteristics
Butternut squash are smooth and shaped like a bottle or a bell, with a wider base and a longer narrower neck. In some cases, the neck can be much longer than the base, which contains the pulpy seed compartment. The outer skin is thin and an orange-tan color, while the inner flesh is dense, bright orange, and sweet. The flesh's appearance and flavor are akin to those of sweet potato.

Seasonality
As a winter squash, the butternut squash is available from early fall through winter.

Selection and storage
The size of a butternut squash is deceptive—since the wide base is full of seeds, look for butternuts with a longer neck and therefore more solid flesh. You'll want the squash to be firm, dense, and heavy, with no soft areas or rotting. The squash keep very well even on the countertop, and they can last several months in a cool dark cellar or cupboard. After being peeled and cut, the squash will keep for a few days in the fridge or much longer in the freezer.

Use
Butternut squash are often roasted, which gives them a nutty browned flavor, but they can also be simmered or steamed. When puréed, it can also be used much like pumpkin purée in baked goods. While the skin is technically edible, it is usually removed.

Dconf

dconf is a low-level configuration system and settings management tool. Its main purpose is to provide a back end to GSettings on platforms that don't already have configuration storage systems. It depends on GLib. It is part of GNOME as of version 3, and is a replacement for GConf.

Overview
dconf is a simple key-based configuration system. Keys exist in an unstructured database (but it is intended that keys that logically belong together are grouped together).

Change notification is supported.

Stacking of multiple configuration sources is supported. Mandatory keys are supported.

The stacking can be done at "mount points". For example, the global system configuration can be mounted under /system/ inside of each user's configuration space. A single configuration source may appear at multiple points in the hierarchy. For example, in addition to stacking over the normal keys at /user/, the system default keys may also appear at /default/ for inspection and modification by a system policy configuration utility.

PolicyKit integration is planned so that a normal user may temporarily gain the ability to, for example, write to the keys under /system/ (or /default/). This means that programs like the GNOME Display Manager configuration utility no longer have to be run as root.

dconf is loosely the GNOME equivalent of the Windows Registry.

Software architecture
Since a typical GNOME login consists of thousands of reads and ideally 0 writes, dconf is optimized for reads. Typically, reading a key from dconf involves zero system calls and zero context switches. This is achieved with a simple file format that doubles both as the storage format for data in dconf and as an IPC mechanism between the clients and the server.

Avoiding round trips and context switches is desirable in itself, but the real advantage comes from allowing the I/O scheduler in the kernel to do a better job by saturating it with requests coming from all of the applications trying to read their keys (as opposed to a common configuration server serially requesting a single key at a time).

Having all of the keys in a single compact binary format also avoids the intense fragmentation problems currently experienced by the tree-of-directories-of-xml-files approach. Writes are less optimized – they traverse the bus and are handled by a "writer" –  a D-Bus service –  in the ordinary way. Change notification is also handled by the writer. The reason for having a bus service at all is that because getting the clients to synchronize on writing would be very difficult.

The writer service doesn't have to be activated until the first write operation is performed.

The service is completely stateless and can start and stop dynamically. The list of change notifications that an individual client is interested in is maintained by the bus daemon (as a D-Bus signal watch/match list).

dconf database
One dconf database consists of a single file in binary format, i.e. it is not a text-file. The format is defined as gvdb (GVariant Database file). It is a simple database file format that stores a mapping from strings to GVariant values in a way that is extremely efficient for lookups.

The GNOME database file for each user is by default, a file expected to be in GVDB format.

GVariant
GVariant is a strongly typed variant datatype used for all the values stored in dconf; it can contain one or more values along with information about the type of the values.

A GVariant may contain simple types, like integers, or boolean values; or complex types, like an array of two strings, or a dictionary of key value pairs. A GVariant is also immutable: once it's been created, neither its type nor its content can be modified further. GVariant is useful whenever data needs to be serialized, for example when sending method parameters in DBus, or when saving settings using GSettings.

GVariant is part of GLib.

 * https://git.gnome.org/browse/glib/tree/glib/gvariant.c

GSettings
The GSettings class provides a high-level API for application for storing and retrieving their own settings.

The utility program  is contained in libglib2.0-bin.

GSettings is part of GIO. which is part of GLib. libglib2.0-0

Random Evaluation
This article is a randomly selected subject of my attempt to guage the evolving quality of Wikipedia. I will occasionally select 10 article at random (using the "Random article" feature, of course) and grade each of them using the Good Article standard below: What is a good article? A good article has the following attributes. 1. It is well written. 2. It is factually accurate and verifiable. 3. It is broad in its coverage, addressing all major aspects of the topic (this requirement is slightly weaker than the "comprehensiveness" required by WP:FAC, and allows shorter articles and broad overviews of large topics to be listed);. 4. It follows the neutral point of view policy. 5. It is stable, i.e., it does not change significantly from day to day and is not the subject of ongoing edit wars. 6. It contains images, where possible, to illustrate the topic.

May 21, 2008

 * 1) Dave Engle
 * 2) *Well written? - FAILED. A basic accumulation of facts, little more than a list in paragraph form.
 * 3) *Factually accurate? - FAILED - Unverifiable. Lacking in citation of claims. Only one source referenced.
 * 4) *Broad in its coverage? - FAILED. No personal information given in this biography.

Strand Palace Hotel

The Strand Palace Hotel is a large hotel on the north side of the Strand, London, England, positioned close to Covent Garden, Aldwych, Trafalgar Square and the River Thames.

History
The hotel was built after Exeter Hall was demolished in 1907. It opened in 1909 and was refurbished in the Art Deco style during the 1930s, but has now been modernised with the latest refurbishment in 2019.

Strand Hotel Limited was incorporated on 31 October 1907, with some 4,000 shareholders. Created by the Salmon and Gluckstein families, it was established to fund the building of the Strand Palace Hotel. J. Lyons & Co. acquired shares in this enterprise in 1922, and also bought the adjoining Haxells family hotel in order to expand and improve the Strand Hotel. At that time, a single room with breakfast would have set you back five shillings and six pence – just 27p in today’s money.

After extensive redevelopment, the hotel became an art deco showcase, and re-opened in 1928, with 980 bedrooms. The rear of the property was occupied by the Winter Garden Restaurant, which had a large domed ceiling and could seat over 500 guests, who were served by over one hundred staff.

In February 1946, Neville Heath was found by staff members in a room standing over the body of Pauline Brees, an incident occurring during Heath's murder career.

After the war, the hotel made several improvements. Private bathrooms were installed in all guest rooms in 1958; this reduced the overall number of rooms at the hotel to 788. The new bathroom facilities meant that oil-fired boilers had to be installed.

In 1968, the front hall and ground floor restaurants, including the Winter Garden, were redesigned, and the first computerised billing system in London was installed. The revolving doors and other parts of the foyer designed by Oliver Bernard were removed in this redesign, but were of such fine quality and historic interest that the curators at the Victoria and Albert Museum requested them for their collection in 1969. The pieces were dismantled and stored in the museum's Battersea depot. The doors were exhibited in 2003 in the museum's major exhibition 'Art Deco: 1910–1939', following reconstruction.

In 1976, Trust Houses Forte bought the lease of the Strand Palace Hotel from the Lyons Hotel Group. Over the next ten years, there was minor refurbishment throughout the hotel. In 1985, a more in-depth refurbishment was undertaken on all floors of the new hotel; this included new furniture, new bathrooms and a redecoration of the bedrooms.

London and Regional Properties took over the hotel in 2006. They contracted Michael Gallie to deliver an updated floor plan and area referencing, and outline the external elevations.

GA Review

Reviewer: Good888 (talk · contribs) 10:29, 8 February 2015 (UTC)

Now I have been wanting to review this article for good article status for sometime but I would have probably failed it due to stability issues. Since the article has been semi-protected for a year however, I think I can review this now. good888 (talk) 10:29, 8 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Thanks ! I look forward to improving the article even more by addressing your concerns! I am quite busy nowadays and might not reply very quickly though. starship.paint  ~ ¡ Olé !  14:05, 8 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Sorry for the delay. I have been quite busy as of late, so the review might be finished by the weekend. good888 (talk) 09:08, 13 February 2015 (UTC)
 * It's okay. I must say though, I will very likely have no access to Wikipedia from 18 to 22 Feb. starship.paint  ~ ¡ Olé !  12:09, 13 February 2015 (UTC)

Well here is my review:

Lead section
 * Slam! Wrestling and The Times-Picayune are not linked here but are linked later in the article. Link them in this section.
 * Done. starship.paint

Production
 * "In May 2014, Bryan revealed in an interview that he also believed that WWE only decided to give him the big WrestleMania spotlight only after Punk quit." I think only one erm "only" is needed in this sentence.
 * Done. starship.paint

 * "After the match, Triple H turned heel by attacking Bryan" Heel had already been linked earlier in the "storylines"
 * Done. starship.paint

 * "resulting in special guest referee Shawn Michaels attacking Bryan" I would note that Shawn Michaels turned heel in the process.
 * 1) source doesn't say Michaels turned heel 2) Michaels had a storyline reason - Bryan kneed Michaels' best friend HHH in the face. starship.paint

 * "(who still received a negative fan reaction at Elimination Chamber) Add that he defeated Alberto Del Rio at the event.
 * Done. starship.paint

Event
 * "while there were also Spanish and French commentators at ringside." You might as well add who they were.
 * I want to, but no reliable sources give their names. I searched. starship.paint

 * "the first half could be watched for free on WWE.com, YouTube, and other social media outlets," Link YouTube.
 * Done. starship.paint

 * "Analysis was provided by a panel of Josh Mathews, Mick Foley, Booker T and Shawn Michaels; joining midway were retired National Football League linebacker Shawne Merriman, Jimmy Hart, Alex Riley and Trish Stratus. Renee Young directed social media discussion, while Byron Saxton and Tom Phillips conducted backstage interviews." There are no sources for this paragraph at all. Add one.
 * Actually the sources are there, just at the bottom of the whole section. Same for the similar problems below. Fixed anyway. starship.paint

 * Likewise for the next paragraph. Add one there as well.
 * Fixed. starship.paint

 * "The second match saw The New Age Outlaws (Road Dogg and Billy Gunn) and Kane take on The Shield (Dean Ambrose, Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns). The pace of the match was quick; the end of the match saw Kane being hit by Reigns' signature spear, and Reigns then hit both Outlaws simultaneously with another spear. The Shield then performed their Triple Powerbomb maneuver on both Outlaws for a decisive victory." Once again, this paragraph is unsourced. And the paragraph after that is also unsourced.
 * Fixed. starship.paint

 * "with Undertaker's streak of victories at WrestleMania on the line." Undefeated WrestleMania streak of The Undertaker has already been linked in the production section so unlink the link in this sentence.
 * Done. starship.paint

 * "The match was a slow one with Undertaker looking old and worn down throughout." Possible you could add a source here?
 * Reference 60 at the end of the paragraph says The story of this match was Taker looked old and worn down. starship.paint

Reception
 * "ranking third below Netflix and YouTube but above Amazon, Hulu and HBO." Unlink YouTube, as it should be linked in the event section.
 * Done. starship.paint

 * "Tucker also noted that the Hogan, Stone Cold and the Rock's segment was "meaningless, surreal and a lot of fun". The Hogan? I think you mean Hulk Hogan.
 * Done. starship.paint

Aftermath
 * "while Bryan defeated Kane in a Extreme Rules match." Link Extreme Rules match under Hardcore wrestling.
 * Done. starship.paint

 * "On the next Raw on June 2, Batista quit WWE in the storyline" Explain why Batista quit. I know it was because of him not receiving a one on one match for the WWE World Heavyweight championship.
 * Added. starship.paint

Results
 * I remember that there was a table for the 31-man Battle royal. May I ask why it was removed? Can it be added back in?
 * No reliable sources for the either timing of eliminations or a full list which wrestler eliminated who. I searched. Only info that is in the RS is the order of elimination, even so, the sources missed out when Woods and Sin Cara were eliminated. We can't violate WP:OR. starship.paint

References
 * Refs 10 and 18 are broken.
 * Ref 18 - Forbes? is fine for me. Fixed 10 and some others. starship.paint

 * For ref 32 can you note that the publisher was Pro Wrestling Torch?
 * Done. starship.paint

 * Is Wrestleview a reliable source? I am not too sure it is.
 * WP:PW has used it as a reliable source for a long time. I also answered that question at Featured article candidates/Money in the Bank (2011)/archive3 Reference/Formatting Comments from Ceranthor. -- starship.paint

Going to place on hold for now. good888 (talk) 10:51, 14 February 2015 (UTC)
 * - (although I missed one or two at the time I pinged you) now it's all fixed or rebutted! Thank you for going through, and await your reply! starship.paint  ~ ¡ Olé !  12:45, 14 February 2015 (UTC)

Milanka Karić

Milanka Karić (Миланка Карић; born September 15, 1957) is a Serbian politician. She served in the National Assembly of Serbia from 2012 to 2020 as a member of the Strength of Serbia Movement, a political party led by her husband Bogoljub Karić.

Early life and education
Karić was born in Peja, Kosovo and Mehotija, in what was then the People's Republic of Serbia in the Federal People's Republic of Yugoslavia. She holds a Bachelor of Laws degree from the University of Niš.

Business career and philanthropy
The Karić family was one of the richest in Serbia during the 1990s. More recent reports suggest that their wealth and influence, though reduced, remain significant. Milanka Karić has been active in several of the family's business and philanthropic concerns, including serving as president of the Karić Foundation.

2008 presidential campaign
Karić ran as the Strength of Serbia Movement's candidate for president of Serbia in the 2008 election, when her husband was outside the country to avoid criminal prosecution. Her campaign slogan was, "Family Is the Strength of Serbia." She received 40,332 votes (0.98%), placing seventh in a field of nine candidates.

Parliamentarian
Strength of Serbia fielded its own electoral list for the National Assembly of Serbia in the 2007 and 2008 parliamentary elections; Karić led the list in 2007 and was given the second position in 2008. In each instance, the list failed to cross the electoral threshold to win representation in the assembly.

Karić attended a major opposition rally in 2011, conveying greetings from her husband and announcing Strength of Serbia's alliance with the leadership of the Serbian Progressive Party.

Strength of Serbia contested the 2012 parliamentary election as part of the Progressive Party's Let's Get Serbia Moving coalition. Karić was awarded the ninth position on the coalition's electoral list and was elected when the list won seventy-three mandates. The Progressive Party emerged as the head of a coalition government after this election, and Karić served as part of its parliamentary majority. The Strength of Serbia Movement's alliance with the Progressive Party continued into the 2014 and 2016 elections; Karić was included on its list both times and was re-elected when the Progressive-led alliance won landslide victories.

Karić is a member of the parliamentary foreign affairs committee; a deputy member of the committee on the judiciary, public administration, and local self-government; the head of Serbia's parliamentary friendship group with Kazakhstan; and a member of the parliamentary friendship groups with Austria, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Canada, China, Croatia, Cuba, Cyprus, France, Germany, Greece, India, Indonesia, Iran, Iraq, Israel, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Montenegro, North Macedonia, Russia, Slovenia, South Korea, Spain, Turkey, the United Kingdom, the United States of America, and the Sovereign Military Order of Malta. She serves in the Progressive Party's parliamentary group.

Diplomat
Karić was appointed as Kazakhstan's honorary council in Serbia in June 2015.
