Kyle Whittingham

Kyle David Whittingham (born November 21, 1959) is an American football coach and former player. He is the head football coach at the University of Utah, a position he has held since 2005, and is the all-time leader in wins at Utah. Prior to becoming the head coach at Utah, Whittingham served as Utah's defensive coordinator for ten seasons. He was named head coach of Utah after Urban Meyer left for the University of Florida in 2004. He won AFCA Coach of the Year and the Paul "Bear" Bryant Award in 2008 after leading the 2008 Utah Utes football team to an undefeated season and a win in the 2009 Sugar Bowl over the 2008 Alabama Crimson Tide football team. He and Oklahoma State's Mike Gundy are the second longest tenured FBS coaches (with one school), trailing only Kirk Ferentz. He is the longest tenured head coach in the Pac-12.

Playing career
A graduate of Provo High School, Whittingham was all-state at linebacker and fullback and earned two letters in baseball for the Bulldogs. He remained in Provo and played college football for the BYU Cougars from 1978 through 1981, where his father Fred was the linebacker coach, later defensive coordinator, under longtime head coach LaVell Edwards. In his senior season in 1981, he was the WAC Defensive Player of the Year, and the defensive MVP of the Holiday Bowl. Whittingham played in the first four Holiday Bowls; he was a running back as a freshman in the inaugural and a linebacker in the next three, during which he recorded 27 tackles. In 2009, he was inducted into the Holiday Bowl Hall of Fame.

Whittingham graduated from BYU in 1981 and went on to play linebacker for the Denver Gold and New Orleans Breakers of the USFL and the Calgary Stampeders of the CFL. He also played for the Los Angeles Rams' replacement squad in 1987.

Early coaching career
Whittingham became a graduate assistant for BYU during the 1985 and 1986 seasons. In 1987, Whittingham was named defensive coordinator at the College of Eastern Utah. He coached there for a season before taking a job at Idaho State. After five seasons with Idaho State, Whittingham joined the Utah staff as defensive line coach, working alongside his father, Fred Whittingham. In the 1995 season, Whittingham replaced his father as the defensive coordinator, who had been hired as the linebackers coach for the Oakland Raiders. Whittingham remained the defensive coordinator for ten years, serving under both Ron McBride and Meyer, until being named head coach in 2004.

Head coaching career
The 2004 season ended with Utah becoming the first BCS non-AQ conference team to make a BCS bowl game, the Fiesta Bowl. After winning the Fiesta Bowl, the Utes' overall record improved to 12–0 under the leadership of junior starting quarterback Alex Smith (in his final season before declaring for the NFL draft) and head coach Urban Meyer, who announced his departure to the University of Florida in December 2004. After the regular season, and before the Fiesta Bowl, Whittingham was offered the head coaching job at Utah and also the head coaching job at his alma mater, Brigham Young University. After struggling with the decision for four days he chose the Utes. Because Urban Meyer had already officially accepted the head coaching job at Florida before the Fiesta Bowl, Whittingham and Meyer acted as co-head coaches of the 2005 Fiesta Bowl. Utah and the NCAA credit the Fiesta Bowl to both Meyer and Whittingham.

2005
Whittingham's first season was an up and down ride for Utah as the team not only adjusted to a new coaching staff, including Andy Ludwig, but also a new offense led by quarterback Brian Johnson. Utah struggled early on, going 3–4 in their first 7 games, however, a strong finish gave Utah their third straight bowl invite.

In the 2005 Emerald Bowl the Utes faced the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets. Utah beat Georgia Tech 38–10, the Yellow Jackets' worst bowl loss by point margin in school history. Whittingham finished his first year at Utah with a 7–5 record.

2006
In 2006, Whittingham's team faced a degree of adversity. Starting quarterback Brett Ratliff struggled through parts of the year, and so did the Utes. Like the year before, the Utes rebounded toward the end of the season, but lost to rival BYU at home by a score of 33–31. The Utes became bowl eligible for the fourth straight year, a school record. Whittingham led the Utes to a 25–13 victory over the University of Tulsa in the 2006 Armed Forces Bowl, running his record to 15–10 (.600) with Utah.

2007
2007 would provide more adversity. In Johnson's first start since 2005, he broke his collarbone against Oregon State and starting running back Matt Asiata broke his leg as Utah got routed 24–7 by the Beavers. The following week, wide receiver Brent Casteel was lost for the season in an embarrassing 20–12 loss at home to Air Force.

Utah looked as if it righted the ship the following week with a 44–6 rout of No. 9 UCLA, the highest-ranked team ever defeated by the Utes. But the following week represented the worst week of Whittingham's head coaching career—a 27–0 loss to perennial cellar-dweller UNLV that had many wondering if Whittingham could survive as a head coach at Utah.

But like past seasons, the Utes regrouped and won seven consecutive games, using a stingy, big-play defense and the sledgehammer running attack of Darrell Mack (253 carries, 1,204 yards and 16 total touchdowns), who had been scheduled to redshirt in what was going to be his junior season. The Utes 50–0 drubbing of Wyoming proved controversial. Up 43–0 in the second half, Whittingham decided to go for an onside kick. An emotional Joe Glenn was caught on camera giving Whittingham the bird after the play. In the season finale, Utah suffered its second consecutive loss to rival BYU to end the regular season, 17–10.

Whittingham and Utah overcame that disappointment to beat Navy, 35–32, in the 2007 Poinsettia Bowl. It marked the Utes' seventh consecutive bowl victory, which placed them second to Boston College in longest active bowl winning streaks.

2008
In 2008, Utah completed an undefeated regular season and qualified for the 2009 Sugar Bowl. Along the way were wins at Michigan, late come-from-behind wins over Oregon State and TCU, and a convincing victory over rival BYU. Overall, Utah finished the regular season holding wins over three teams in the final AP Top 25.

Utah defeated Alabama, 31–17, in the Sugar Bowl, completing the fifth undefeated and untied season in school history.

The American Football Coaches Association selected Whittingham as the 2008 AFCA National Coach of the Year Award. The announcement was made at the football coaches' convention, which Whittingham attended. The AFCA award is the oldest national coach of the year award, dating back to 1935, and is the only one chosen exclusively by the coaches.

He also won the 2008 Paul "Bear" Bryant Award.

The team was selected national champion by Anderson & Hester, MCFR, and W postseason polls.

2009
In 2009, Utah had its second consecutive 10-win season. They finished with a 10–3 (6–2 MWC) record and a 37–27 win over California in the 2009 Poinsettia Bowl. Whittingham helped the Utes reach these benchmarks with two new coordinators: Dave Schramm as the offensive coordinator and Kalani Sitake as the defensive coordinator. Utah's three losses came against teams that finished the season ranked: Oregon, TCU, and BYU who finished the season ranked No. 11, 6, and 12 in the AP Poll, respectively. Utah finished ranked No. 18 in both the AP Poll and the Coaches' Poll.

2010
Whittingham turned down the head coaching position at Tennessee early in 2010.

Utah started the 2010 season with an upset of then-15th ranked Pittsburgh. The Utes then managed the third 8–0 start in program history, rising to fifth in the BCS rankings. However, during a 68–27 victory over Iowa State, Utah quarterback Jordan Wynn injured his arm and though he continued to play, the injury impacted the remainder of the season. After that 8–0 start, the Utes stumbled badly at home against the TCU Horned Frogs, lost a sloppy contest to Notre Dame and then bounced back to end the regular season with victories over San Diego State and rival Brigham Young University.

Due to the injury, Wynn, who finished the regular season in spite of his injury, missed the Las Vegas Bowl – a 26–3 loss to the Boise State Broncos. It was the program's first bowl loss since the 1996 Copper Bowl and snapped a 9-game bowl winning streak, which was, at the time, the longest active streak in college football.

The Utes finished the 2010 campaign with a 10–3 record. It marked the first time in program history that Utah produced three consecutive ten-win seasons.

2011
In its inaugural season in the Pac-12 Conference, Utah finished with an 8–4 regular season record (4–5 in the Pac-12). The Utes defeated Georgia Tech in the Sun Bowl by a score of 30–27 to end the season.

2012
The Utes went 5–7 in the 2012 season, highlighted with a ranked victory over BYU on September 15.

2013
Whittingham led Utah to a 4–2 start before a five-game losing streak. The 2013 season ended with a high note with a 24–17 victory over Colorado to go 5–7.

2014
Whittingham led the Utes to a 8–4 regular season mark in the 2014 season. The season was highlighted by ranked victories over UCLA and USC. The Utes defeated the Colorado State Rams 45–10 in the Las Vegas Bowl to end the season.

2015
Whittingham led the Utes to a 6–0 start and a #3 ranking in the AP Poll before dropping a 42–24 result to USC. The Utes finished the regular season with a 9–3 record. The team qualified for the Las Vegas Bowl, which ended up being a 35–28 victory over BYU.

2016
On January 29, 2016, The University of Utah announced Whittingham had agreed to a contract extension through the 2020 season. The contract will pay Whittingham $3.3 million per year. This came on the heels of Whittingham surging past McBride to become the second-winningest coach in school history, behind only Ike Armstrong.

Whittingham led the Utes to a 8–4 mark in the regular season, which qualified them to the Foster Farms Bowl. In the Foster Farms Bowl against Indiana, the Utes won 26–24.

2017
The Utes went 6–6 in the 2017 regular season. The team qualified for the Heart of Dallas Bowl, a 30–14 victory over West Virginia.

2018
The Utes finished with a 9–3 regular season mark, which qualified them for the Pac-12 Championship Game.

2019
Whittingham and the Utes opened up the 2019 season with a #14 ranking in the AP Poll. The Utes started 3–0 before a 30–23 loss to USC. The Utes reeled off an eight-game winning streak to qualify for the Pac-12 Championship Game, an eventual 37–15 loss to Oregon. The Utes qualified for the Alamo Bowl, which ended up being a 38–10 loss to Texas.

2020
Whittingham's contract at Utah was renewed through 2027 at around $5 million per year. The Utes' 2020 season was shortened because of the COVID-19 pandemic. They only played five games on the season, finishing with a 3–2 mark.

2021
The Utes started off the 2021 season with a 4–3 start before reeling off a five game-winning streak to close out the regular season. In that stretch was a 38–7 victory over third-ranked Oregon, where Whittingham became the winningest coach in University of Utah football program history with 142 victories. His total eclipsed that of coach Ike Armstrong, who amassed 141 wins from 1925 to 1949. With their 9–3 record, Utah qualified for the Pac-12 Championship Game, a rematch against Oregon. In the game, Utah defeated Oregon 38–10. The Utes qualified for the Rose Bowl, where they lost 48–45 to Ohio State.

2022
Whittingham and the Utes started the 2022 season ranked #7 in the AP Poll for Utah's best ranking to start a season in school history. However, the 2022 season started off with a 29–26 loss to the Florida Gators on the road to drop to #13. Utah recovered with a four-game winning streak before a 42–32 setback to UCLA on the road. The Utes put together another four-game winning streak, highlighted by a 43–42 upset over #7 USC. The Utes split their final two games, a 20–17 loss to Oregon and a 63–21 victory over Colorado. The team qualified for the Pac-12 Championship Game, a rematch against USC. The Utes defeated the Trojans 47–24 in the rematch. The Utes qualified for the Rose Bowl against Penn State, where the Nittany Lions defeated the Utes 35–21.

2023
Whittingham led the Utes to a 8–4 regular season mark that culminated with a loss in the Las Vegas Bowl to Northwestern.

Personal life
Whittingham was born on November 21, 1959, in San Luis Obispo, California. His father, Fred Whittingham, played linebacker professionally for nine years and then coached at the college and the professional level for almost twenty years.

Whittingham graduated from BYU with a bachelor's degree in educational psychology in 1982. In 1983, he married the former Jamie Daniels. Whittingham then earned a master's degree in professional leadership in 1986. Whittingham and his wife have four children. Alex Whittingham, Tyler Whittingham, Melissa Whittingham, and Kylie Whittingham. Whittingham is a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Whittingham is an avid skier, tennis player, and golfer. He excels at all three, according to Kirk Herbstreit.

Philanthropy
In 2008, Whittingham and former Utah head coach Urban Meyer were the first people to donate money to the Elder Joseph B. Wirthlin Family Scholarship, an endowed scholarship which benefits the football program.

In 2020, after Ty-Coreous Jordan, Pac-12 Offensive Freshman of the year, was killed in a gun incident, Whittingham and his wife were the original donors to the Ty Jordan Memorial Fund with their donation of $100,000. The following year, Aaron Lowe, Ty Jordan's childhood friend who also played for the University of Utah, was murdered at a house party hours after Utah's win against Washington State. The Ty Jordan Memorial Fund was then renamed the 22 Forever Memorial Scholarship and Whittingham continues to make donations to that scholarship.

Where Greater Men Have Fallen

Where Greater Men Have Fallen is the eighth studio album by Irish extreme metal band Primordial. The album was released on November 25, 2014, through Metal Blade Records. A music video for the track 'Babel's Tower' was released on November 24, 2014.

The album reached #24 on the Top Heatseekers chart, #24 on Billboard's Top New Artist Chart and #43 on Billboard's Hard Music Chart, and #104 on Billboard's Independent Albums Chart.

Critical reception
The album was generally well received by critics. Pitchfork wrote that "Compared to Primordial’s past successes, the stripped-and-centered approach might seem simplistic, but the hour-long result is more immediate because of it. From beginning to end, Fallen feels like a compulsory listen." About.com's Dan Drago also praised the album, concluding in his review that "Where Greater Men Have Fallen is more proof of their ability to grow and maintain such a high level of songwriting. Equal in stature to their last two releases, they seem to be reaching new heights and very few bands can match their passion. They have once again released a sure candidate for album of the year."

Many critics were particularly complimentary towards A.A. Nemtheanga's vocals on the album. Writing for Rolling Stone, Kim Kelly wrote that "Alan Averill is a vocal powerhouse, soaring atop melodic black/folk metal compositions that channel doom and gloom as well as triumph. [...] When Averill howls "The heart of your motherland will be ripped from her chest," a million ghosts cry out with him."

Part 1 : Create a musical sound effect for "Fear".

 * We are going to start very easy. Your first assignment is "Fear".

Fear is one of the most basic musical themes in horror movies. If you plan to write film score (or if you are budding film director or film producer) for your first motion picture (which often is a horror film), you need to learn how to create the emotion of fear. Also, fear is the easiest mood to create with music.

Your First Assignment
Your first assignment is to have fun. Create 3 to 10 seconds of a musical sound effect for fear. You can do whatever you wish… or you can follow the instructions below.

Step 1. Create a musical sound effect

 * How do you create the sound of "FEAR"?
 * Listen to the different violin trills in GarageBand with Jam Pack:Symphony Orchestra (or whatever software you use.) Just a single note (a single press of the key when you have selected a violin trill software instrument) gives you an entire violin trill which is ideal for the explaining to the audience that they should feel the emotion of "Fear".

 * Adjust the volume
 * When you create a sound with a single musical note (in this case, a violin trill), something seems wrong. The volume is either on or off. That is not right.

 * Fortunately, you can go back and adjust the volume of the note over time. This is makes the note expressive.  It makes the note come alive.

Step 2. Export your music

 * Save your work
 * Export your music (your single note played expressively to create the mood of "Fear".)

Step 3. Upload your music

 * Send me your sound effect
 * If you know how, upload and store your musical sound file to Wikiversity. Put your name, the sound of fear, and "Mad Max's class" in the description.  Email me with the files name so I can look at it.

Note: Wikiversity can only accept OGG files which is a new, free format for music sound similar to MP3 but free from royalties. If you do not have this capability, just send your audio file to me and I will convert it and upload it. To email me, you simply Click Here.

Part 2 - Create other moods
Once you have finished creating the sound of fear, you should also try creating the sound of:

The Sound Of Danger

 * Danger

 * Once you have created the sound of fear, the next sound you should create is the sound of danger.

 * You can create the sound of danger in two ways.

 * 1. You can make a sound like fear but very low pitch.

 * 2. You can use a very short melody with very dark sounding instruments.  This is much more difficult so start with just the sound of fear made with very angry sounding musical instruments.

The Sound Of Joy

 * Joy (Happy, magic fairies)
 * Joy is very different from fear and danger. Joy cannot be created with a single note as with the sound of fear.  For this, you want four or five notes that repeat over and over again very quickly, very lightly.  Bells are great for this.   To help you, there is a complete lesson for creating the  the sound of joy.

 * sad

 * busy

 * disgust

 * humor

 * waiting / boredom

 * anger

More advanced Techniques
In the exercise above, you used on only one track. Now try creating the sound of fear with multiple tracks.

Option 1 · Rich and thick sound
One way to enhance music is to add a second voice which enhances your first voice. That is, you can try adding a second track and create a sound which enhances the sound on the first track. As an example, try adding a second trill note which follows the first trill note but pick a second note which sounds really awful. That is, pick to pitches which have conflicting harmonies.

Option 2 · Add a new sound
Another way to enhance music is add a second melody, on if the sound is short, add a totally different sound which conflicts and interacts with your original sound. That is you can add a second multiple tracks which have additional sounds. A good example is to listen to the sound effects of the Orchestra Kit and add one at the beginning or the end of your musical cue for "Fear".

Option 3 · Add a melodic rhythm
Another way to enhance music is to add rhythm created with musical notes (rather than with drums).

Option 4 · Add drums
Drums should never be used anywhere near dialog. Drums and dialog have the same frequencies and so can be very confusing to an audience. When possible, never use drums. However in some cases where no one is talking and only screaming in terror, drums will not distract the audience who is also screaming in terror.

Option 5 · Add a sound effect
Programs like GarageBand allow you to mix music with ordinary sound files. Pick a fearful sound effect and combine it with your violin trill. Perhaps the sound of fingernails on a chalk board will make your violin more disgusting.

Stem cells

Welcome to the Stem Cells Study Project.

Content summary
Stem cells are undifferenciated cells that can be found in bone marrow, aborted fetuses, menstrual blood, exc. They have shown potential to replace damaged body tissue and repair spinal cord injuries. Parkinson's Disease is also a subject in stem cell research and has show some progress. Some countries have banned stem cell research since the embryonic stem cell type involves the disposal of fertilized female embryo (Zygote) in order to retrieve a mass of 30 stem cells the eighth day of life.

Scientists have recently developed a method to transform normal human somatic cells into pluripotent cells via the introduction of four different factors. The converted cells are called induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs).

Goals
Help Wikiversity participants understand what stem cells are and how they can be used in medical treatments. This interdisciplinary project also investigates why and how some governments regulate stem cell research.

Does anyone know if there is a source port of Street Fighter 2 around anywhere? It sounds like it wouldn't be too hard to make- after all it's only 2D whereas Doom and Quake etc. are 3D. It could use the graphics/ sound from the PS2 or XBOX versions of it.

Cheers. Doom jester 11:49, 20 March 2006 (UTC)

 * Sorry, that isn't possible, the idea of a source port is that the source code for the game has been released as it has with Doom, Quake, etc (but not the art, and sound files). The source code for street fighter 2 has not been released, so it would be someone writing a new game engine.

 * TimeDoctor 01:34, 5 June 2006 (UTC)

 * As such, it would be more appropriate to ask on the talk page of game engine recreation. -- Darklock 23:26, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

Usage of the term
Does the term "source port" refer only to porting game engines, or any computer program ported to previously unsupported platforms using its source code? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Zoef1234 (talk • contribs) 15:42, 29 April 2007 (UTC).
 * No the term "source port" is gamer slang for "old game software project" in the sense of game engine recreation. The term originates form the early projects based on the Doom source release: the released source was only the Linux version. Since Doom was originally a DOS game the first step of all those projects was to port the released source code back to DOS (or Windows) in order to reach the game's main audience. The term is misleading as gamers tend to call any fan based software project to play a game, that requires the original game data, a source port. Regardless of the fact that no porting or even access to the original source code might be involved with the development of the individual project. —Preceding unsigned comment added by <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 07:23, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

Suggesting link to be added
I suggest to add a link to the FPS Ports website, which is dedicated to collecting, preserving and providing a quick installation/configuration instructions for the First Person Shooters source ports. The link is http://fps.maros.pri.ee --Moroz1999 (talk) 18:32, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

Would be more useful if there were three separate diagrams instead of just the one with three types of cell division - Marsh 18:54, 31 Mar 2004 (UTC)

Layout
The layout for this page is certainly interesting, but I am wondering if it might be too complicated. What do others think? BeenAroundAWhile (talk) 18:05, 16 August 2020 (UTC)

 * I like it. Seems to flow.  Really interesting images of Los Angeles. Ericmalibu 10:56, 17 August 2020 (UTC)

 * I know of no other article which adopts this layout. It's very bulky, and looks more like historical travel guide than an encycloedic article.  --  Brown HairedGirl  (talk) • (contribs) 16:48, 17 August 2020 (UTC)

 * The historical images are too large (e.g. this courthouse image and its northern image neighbor, both rendered at ) to allow for any meaningful rendition of the vertical street names, in this case, Broadway. Caradhras Aiguo ( leave language ) 17:01, 17 August 2020 (UTC)

 * I like the large pictures. Most people nowadays are visually oriented and go for the pics.  I also like the grid layout of the streets because it shows a clean relationship between the interest sites. Ericmalibu 17:24, 17 August 2020 (UTC)

 * The block-by-block layout is unique and no doubt User:Keizers put a lot of effort into creating it. Unfortunately, it is a bit confusing and difficult to navigate.  Moreover, many of Wikipedia's readers access the site using mobile devices, where the current layout is incomprehensible (some of the points at MOS:IMAGES specifically address this issue).  To improve the article's layout, I would recommend:
 * The layout be returned to this version (no table).
 * Per MOS:IMAGES: the number of images be culled, the placement of images be right-aligned where possible, and image sizes be reduced to 220px.
 * Sections with just a few lines of text and a photo should be separated from the next section by

or

. Magnolia677 (talk) 18:54, 17 August 2020 (UTC)

 * At first, it seemed fine with me, but then I was getting confused. I think the layout either needs another method or should return to normal, like Magnolia677 said. —MonkeyStolen234 (talk) 19:00, 17 August 2020 (UTC)
 * The images are too large, are are stacked up over one another, and it indeed looks like a travel guide more than a Wikipedia article. I think the layout should be reverted back to normal, or something else should be tried out. Danloud (talk) 19:36, 17 August 2020 (UTC)

I agree that this version is the one that we should use. BeenAroundAWhile (talk) 22:42, 17 August 2020 (UTC)
 * I agree the above version is much more comprehensible. MB 23:09, 17 August 2020 (UTC)
 * I’m looking at it on an iPad and the proposed BeenAroundAWhile version really flows top to bottom. Ericmalibu 01:38, 18 August 2020 (UTC)

 * On the positive side: In this new version, I can see where the Wilson block actually is within the street grid.  I also see that Los Angeles High was once located between Temple and Franklin, and that the LA Times was on the next block south.  This new version gives me a sense of placement...For me, that is valuable.
 * Unfortunately though, I have to agree with BeenAroundAWhile and MonkeyStolen234...If you have to look at the layout and think about it - rather than immediately "get it"....then there is a problem.
 * Is there a hybrid version - one that keeps at the first graphic map of the entire area, but  would revert back to a standard layout after that?  All the significant buildings mentioned in the article would be listed by name in that one map (with hyperlinks -  if possible - to take the reader to sections of the article to read about each block/building). In that way, the reader can understand placement within the city, but have a easier time reading the article.  Phatblackmama (talk) 06:22, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
 * If it doesn't scale very well for the mobile user then it should not be on Wikipedia. MOS:IMGSIZE says "Except with very good reason, a fixed width in pixels should not be specified." It says we should use a scaling factor for size, which would ruin the careful layout of streets. So we must determine whether the street grid layout is a "very good reason" to go against the general image accessibility guideline. Binksternet (talk) 18:27, 18 August 2020 (UTC)

It really does pain me to see work that someone obviously in good faith put a lot of effort into, but this is just a failed but worthwhile experiment. Based on WP:ACCESSIBILITY alone it should be returned to this version. Thanks to for pinging me.  // Timothy ::  talk  19:20, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Reply: here goes:
 * 1) I absolutely love the historical content here and it should absolutely be preserved and improved.
 * 2) I applaud the person who put the work in here to create a novel layout (it took me some effort to figure it out). It's creative and a great example of trying to improve Wikipedia with new ideas.
 * 3) For someone walking the neighborhood, this would be an interesting street guide style historical reference.
 * 4) However while giving kudos to, I absolutely HATE this layout. It's awkward. It's hard to edit. It's an accessibility nightmare. And while novel, it's unnecessary to convey the information.
 * 5) Just in case this gets lost in the above: It's an accessibility nightmare. I tried this in JAWS and it wasn't useful; I can't imagine any other screen reader doing better. If someone depends on screen magnification or turns off images, it's going to be difficult to tell what you're looking at and someone might very well assume it's just a mess before they figure it out, but it does get a bit better in high contrast white on black.
 * 6) I can't really comment on mobile, but I imagine it's not good. I can't see how this meets WP:MOS.
 * PS >>, it occurs to me when the Central Library is safe to return to, this article is a rich source of potential articles on Los Angeles history.  // Timothy ::  talk

 * Hello, Timothy, Phatblackmama, BeenAroundAWhile and others -- this is the person who created the article in both the older and newer layouts, I did not know this conversation was taking place; that would have been nice to know. I am really happy that so many people are taking an interest and seeing value in the article. I can try a third way of layout that incorporates a grid or a map- type sense of the layout, while incorporating the concerns about mobile access. (Sorry, I thought I had done so, but admittedly my cellphone screen is more than 1000px wide) I think it's of extreme value to see where buildings were in relationship to each other, street by street and block by block (also the intersections). That's part of the essence of describing the place, because it is more than just the sum of the buildings listed in a linear fashion. Keizers (talk) 19:38, 18 August 2020 (UTC)

 * BeenAroundAWhile, it is unusual that you didn't put something on my personal Talk page. Of course I have this page in my Watchlist but I don't check my Watchlist everyday. Putting it on my talk page generates an email to my actual email. It's what I'm accustomed to others doing. Whatever, water under the bridge, just a constructive suggestion. What do you think of the layout now? Keizers (talk) 03:42, 20 August 2020 (UTC)

Layout Take Three
Hi, I have updated the article in a way that it still goes in a geographic order but removes the counterintuitive (?) navigation in grid format, and which should be readable on mobile devices. The article is still purposefully full of images, the simplest way to say why is that they are necessary to understand what the Central Business District of that time "was"...how it looked and what the collection of buildings all together constituted in terms of style and the size of the CBD - especially since absolutely nothing remains of it. The WP guidelines against photo-heavy or gallery-heavy pages are not hard and fast rules and allow exceptions when they make sense. Aligning the photos right did not look good on desktop, and I don't think any great damage will come from reft alignment, which looks much better. I hope this new attempt addresses most concerns, and look forward to feedback.Keizers (talk) 04:17, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
 * I have no objection to the layout now as long as it makes sense to you. I will be putting on my green eyeshade and grabbing a big black pencil to do some editing for ease of reading and consistency. BeenAroundAWhile (talk) 06:16, 28 August 2020 (UTC)
 * BeenAroundAWhile, how does the green eyeshade help? Haha, is that some kind of reference to fashion in the 1890s? Keizers (talk) 16:49, 2 September 2020 (UTC)

 * Keizers, I miss the graphic map you had in this version . I find it much more helpful than the two side-by-side map images.  They give me nothing.  They don't relate to each other in sizing, so it is difficult to see the changes between them.  Nor do they show building placement.  I much prefer your graphic map with easy-to-read street names and building placement. And also...I didn't say this earlier...that that first revision was an amazing effort. Bravo. Phatblackmama (talk) 17:25, 29 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Thank you Phatblackmama, but it seemed like a consensus that graphic maps were not "intuitive" and doing it using Wikitable would be a "maintenance nightmare". Maybe the objection was to the larger table that included the photos. I will bring it back per your suggestion and if the consensus is that it, too, should go the way of the old business district and disappear forever, so be it.Keizers (talk) 16:49, 2 September 2020 (UTC)

They make the page look really cluttered & we really need just the bare layout to visualize the location of all these structures; that is, how they relate to each other as well as the juxtaposition of the streets, both existing and former. Best, BeenAroundAWhile (talk) 07:05, 4 September 2020 (UTC) The user can click on a wikilink to get a picture of the building and its description. BeenAroundAWhile (talk) 07:09, 4 September 2020 (UTC)

Title of the article
During the time period we are talking about, there was no "Central Business District"; there was only a single business district for the entire city, so I propose moving (renaming) the article to Los Angeles business district of the 1880s through 1890s. BeenAroundAWhile (talk) 06:42, 28 August 2020 (UTC)

 * I prefer keeping "central", there term CBD I do think makes it more instinctively understandable as to the types of businesses there being the large stores and institutions, wehereas "business district" on its own does sound like a generic term. There were grocery and food businesses in clusters in outlying areas at the horsecar/streetcar stops, though no one would have called them a business "district" whereas we might call them that today ("neighborhood business district" or some such). For example, look at the corner business cluster at First and Cummings in 1890 in Boyle Heights (where my great-grandfather would later cut hair!) Another example - Ralphs opened in 1873 at 6th & Spring, which was an outlying residential area at the time. As for the time period, I find that particular structure wordy "from–to", perhaps a stylistic preference as I think 1880s–1890s you also instantly "get it" rather than have to process it.Keizers (talk) 16:40, 28 August 2020 (UTC)
 * I too prefer the current naming convention, for reasons cited above. I also noticed that, when searching Wikipedia for Los Angeles Central Business District, it re-directed to present-day downtown.  I have removed that redirect and made it a disambiguation page listing both Central Business District, Los Angeles (1880s-1890s) and Downtown Los Angeles.  (If there are more pages covering the downtown history, that would be great.)  Phatblackmama (talk) 17:42, 29 August 2020 (UTC)
 * I was about to go to the mat, insisting that "Central Business District" was a modern term, but then I checked Newspapers.com and found the earliest use was in 1858! And it was in fairly common use during the 1870s. So . . . never mind! I sit corrected. BeenAroundAWhile (talk) 05:09, 30 August 2020 (UTC)

Business center
I made a comprehensive check of Newspapers.com and found that the business area of DTLA was almost always referred to as the business center during this period. BeenAroundAWhile (talk) 05:13, 2 September 2020 (UTC)

Business center 2
Hi, Just wondering if images are really necessary to illustrate that the area was called the business center, that was a generic term and the images don’t really help identify that area as the business center. This may be better at doing so, if it’s felt a source is needed: https://www.newspapers.com/clip/59112017/business-section-moving-south-tunnel/ Keizers (talk) 23:55, 11 September 2020 (UTC)
 * I just took it out. I'm not satisfied with it either. Cheers. BeenAroundAWhile (talk) 00:00, 12 September 2020 (UTC)

No Bradbury Building?
Can we at least get the Bradbury building into the page, considering it is such a landmark? BeenAroundAWhile (talk)

 * BeenAroundAWhile, sure. I should probably explain at this point that my original idea for this page was to cover the geographic district that is now the officially defined Civic Center district, which happens to be almost exactly the business district in the 1880s. Therefore NOT including 3rd Street as that is part of the officially defined Historic Core district today. The Bradbury Building was built in 1893, and that was considered away from the business center at that time, but by the later 1890s 3rd Street was in the business district, if I read the article I posted in the section immediately above this one. I am happy to extend the map and article to 3rd. This is because I believe the article does not exactly have to match any current official district, but rather as its title states, the business district of the 1880s-90s. I should also mention I am thinking of ways to better present a map of then vs now, to improve on the two side by side maps there now. But how to do so in a way that someone else can easily edit such a map?

 * I also would like to create a consistent format for mentioning buildings (name, year built, architect, style, demolition date, replaced by). It's all over the place right now. Keizers (talk) 15:13, 13 September 2020 (UTC)

 * Couple of points: Don't try to cram too much into the text. What is valuable about this page (I see now) is it shows the reader the relationship between buildings of the previous era and the structures there today. Anything more is overkill: Who designed it, who was the tenant, when it was torn down, etc., is just too much to absorb (and more than the reader wants). The clutter would defeat the purpose of the map and the street grid.

 * As for the Bradbury and similar historic structures south of Third, perhaps a simple list would serve below the street grid. Later today, after I do some shopping, I'll look over what you've just added and then try to show you what I have in mind. BeenAroundAWhile (talk) 21:17, 13 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Not sure how far south of Third you wish to go, the articles on Broadway and Spring streets basically cover that area. I did a lot of work on the Broadway article including a grid, and eventually could apply the principles from this page to that page.Keizers (talk) 13:17, 15 September 2020 (UTC)
 * In the meantime, here an essay I found pertinent. Too much detail. BeenAroundAWhile (talk) 21:25, 13 September 2020 (UTC)

 * Actually, I meant a format for such information in the body of the text, not in the graphic map. In the map, I think sometimes the dates are relevant, especially when there were multiple buildings on the same site, or to show how in some cases the notable building was built before 1880 or after 1899.Keizers (talk) 13:15, 15 September 2020 (UTC)

 * By the way, I was disappointed that you edited out the information that I added about the area extending west to Broadway and down to Third (thus, the location of the Bradbury Building) through the 1890s. Perhaps it warrants some explanation. If the article is about what constituted the business district, then Third and Broadway WAS the southern end of that by mid-1890s. (If however the article is strictly about the territory of today's Civic Center district, then no. - but then we should be consistent. I prefer including the area down to Third St.) The information had a very good source, and indeed that phenomenon of migration came up a lot in the newspapers of the day. (Many wanted to remove the hills west of the original core, so that the old downtown around First and Spring could expand in that direction, and that older area would thus strengthen. Instead, what they feared, happened, which was a southward migration and then around the corner along 7th Street).Keizers (talk) 13:32, 15 September 2020 (UTC)

Abbreviations
Please don't use a surfeit of abbreviations. Wikipedia is supposed to be read as text, not puzzled over. Thank you. BeenAroundAWhile (talk) 21:07, 14 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Hi there, especially in the graphic map it seemed natural to me that we should try to conserve space, and to me abbreviations such as "St.", "Bldg.", and "Dept." are comprehensible to all, and certainly common on maps; HQ and a.k.a. I guess I can understand are not instantly familiar to all; however should we adhere to some style guide on this, as between you and me our instincts seem to differ? Keizers (talk) 13:12, 15 September 2020 (UTC)
 * I don't use instincts. I use the proper forms of written English. I've been editing for more than sixty years, and you were fortunate to have me look over this stuff. Every writer needs an editor, so I hope this article finds another good one. I enjoyed the job 'cause I used to work in the Times Building, and I, like you, am intimately familiar with DTLA, in the old days. (I enjoyed watching the wastebaskets being emptied from the upper floors on Broadway during V-J Day and being part of the crowd celebrating.) P.S. I linked this page to many others. Click on "What Links Here" in the table at left. Best wishes. Just don't put down anything that you don't have good sources for, or somebody will revert it. Or SHOULD, anyway. BeenAroundAWhile (talk) 15:38, 15 September 2020 (UTC)
 * BeenAroundAWhile, I'm sorry if I somehow offended you or upset you. I am grateful for the work you have put into the edits here, and now that I see your career history, am all the more impressed. I used the work "instinct" only in the sense of the way that we write or edit from experience, with usage that we have learned or assumed is correct. In my case this includes the use of "St."  for street in the body of an article, which I now see is not 100% desirable. "Proper forms of written English" do change over time but importantly also with context, especially in something like a map. As a prolific creator of content, but without a career history of journalism or writing (other than for business), I do need guidelines. I found something here and I intend to check the more established style guides as well. Best regards.Keizers (talk) 16:14, 15 September 2020 (UTC)

Images
Oh, my goodness. I definitely understand why the article was tagged as "too many pictures". It took a bit just to have the page load.

If someone really wants to see a LOT of images, they can click on the commons link. If they want to see a larger version of the image, just click on the image.

I am going to start making changes with the goal of removing the maintenance tag and to be in compliance with guidelines for WP:Images. Any thoughts or input is welcome as I move along. –CaroleHenson (talk) 21:53, 6 May 2021 (UTC)

 * I mostly did tweaks so that the images don't overwhelm the page, but it's so much better that way. I also cropped some raggedy edges images. Another option is to set up a table for the images... or perhaps a table per section, so that this is standard image size and plenty of room for wording (which still is a problem with long captions).–CaroleHenson (talk) 22:27, 6 May 2021 (UTC)

John Wakeford

The Reverend John Wakeford (died 13 February 1930) was a Church of England clergyman who was convicted of adultery and deprived of his post as Archdeacon of Stow in a celebrated court case in 1921.

Church career
Wakeford was the son of an employee of Plymouth dockyard. He took holy orders in 1884 at Exeter, and subsequently obtained a Bachelor of Divinity degree at the University of Durham. He served as Vicar of St Margaret's, Anfield, Liverpool from 1893; this appointment was at first difficult as Wakeford came from the high church tradition which was not the tradition of the diocese. He was promoted to be a prebendary at Lincoln Cathedral at the end of 1910. He became Archdeacon of Stow in July 1913.

Scandal
In February 1921 Wakeford was convicted of charges under the Clergy Discipline Act 1892 (55 & 56 Vict. c. 32) that he had committed adultery at a hotel in Peterborough in March and April 1920. He appealed to the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council, which dismissed his appeal. As a result of his conviction he was deprived of the post of Archdeacon of Stow, but he was not removed from holy orders. Wakeford continued to dispute the finding, bringing proceedings for slander against the managing clerk of the Bishop of Lincoln's solicitors. As a result of the fight and his legal bills, he was bankrupted in 1924.

Death
He was removed to Barming Heath Asylum on 6 March 1928, having suffered a breakdown, and died there on 13 February 1930.

Reza Shirmarz

Reza Shirmarz, is a Greece-based Iranian published, and awarded playwright, translator, researcher, theatre director and essayist with more than 40 books published both written and translated by him, who has been collaborating with major publishing companies, theaters, drama schools, radio channels, journals, etc. in Iran. Reza Shirmarz was elected as a member of the board of directors of Iran's Playwrights Guild for 3 ongoing years. He has also been a professional member of bodies such as Iran's Playwrights Guild, PEN America, and Dramatists Guild of America. He also is a language specialist and a full member of Chartered Institute of Linguists (CIOL) in London.

Early life
Reza Shirmarz was born in Khoy and raised in Tehran, the capital city of Iran. His father was a ground forces general with no interest in art and his mother an art lover who taught him both discipline and love. Shirmarz is bilingual, speaking Persian and Turkish since childhood. He is left-handed. Shirmarz has been influenced by great modern and classic writers and thinkers since his childhood. He began to read Persian classic literature, especially Rumi, when he was a teen. He also was quite fascinated by modern short stories, particularly the works of great modern Iranian writer, Sadegh Hedayat. He began to read the non-Persian literature intensively after a couple of years. This was the first step for him to get familiar with western literature. Later, Shirmarz began to read more ancient and modern dramas, strengthening his creative imagination. Such an intensive reading assisted him in his playwriting and translation career in the coming years. He said once: "Reading and translation were like workshops I attended to learn how to create drama." Poetry is another branch of literature that the Iranian author and artist have pursued throughout his life. In addition to Iranian classic and modern poets, Shirmarz attempted to go meticulously through eastern and western poetry. In the coming years he wrote a book on modern English poets T. S. Eliot, Ezra Pound and William Butler Yeats.

Career overview
Reza Shirmarz wrote several plays of which two -Cinnamon Stars and Crystal Vines- were celebrated on a national scale in Fajr International Theater Festival and Iran's National Playwriting Contest. He also translated tens of plays and books by famous world dramatists and authors, including Aristophanes (11 plays), Menanderus (1 play), Plautus (20 plays), Terentius (2 plays), George Bernard Shaw (7 plays), Edward Bond (1 play), Somerset Maugham (5 plays), Terence Rattigan (2 plays), Clifford Odets (2 plays), Iakovos Kambanellis (6 plays),  John Mortimer (5 plays), Arthur Watkyns & J.A. Ferguson, Edward Albee, Marjorie Bolton, Jean Paul Sartre, Jean Anouilh, etc. He mostly specialized in theater and philosophy. His last book on Robert Wilson, a well-known American theater director, was published in 2015 by Ghatreh publishing company in Tehran. One of his recent translations from Greek into Persian was Aristotle's Poetics which was published in 2018 in Tehran by a major publishing company called Ghoghnoos. Although some of his works were already published at the time of President Mohammad Khatami, they have been constantly censored and banned by the Iranian official authorities since the presidency of Mahmoud Ahmadinezhad, but he never gave up creating new pieces of art and translating drama and philosophy into Persian. More than six of his works, such as Cinnamon Stars, Crystal Vines, Deep Blue Sea, Yellow Snow Falls, etc. are officially announced as forbidden to be published and distributed. One of his translations is The Big knife by Clifford Odets, which has been prohibited for more than a decade.

Migration
Reza Shirmarz moved to Greece in 2010 to carry out research on ancient Greek culture and civilization, learn Greek language while studying at the university of Athens and translate Greek theatrical and philosophical works into Persian directly from Greek. Six plays of Iakovos Kambanellis were the first series of theatrical works he translated directly from the Greek language into Persian.

He has been translating the complete works of Aristotle into Persian language of which the first volume (The Poetics) was published in 2017. The book was sold out in a short time and was republished in 2020. Reza Shirmarz announced in one of his recent interviews that he is translating the eight books of Aristotle into Persian at the moment, along with other projects he is carrying out. He said that Rhetoric is going to be published soon by a major Iranian publishing company called Ghoghnoos. In addition to his research and translation activities, Shirmarz wrote several plays, such as Immigrants, The Corners of Death, The Pipe, Tsunami, etc., in English while living in Greece. His play Immigrants was translated into Greece two years ago.

Contested deletion
This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because the subject is a notable literary and journalistic figure in Paris. His work has been widely published in major publications. Please retain. SiefkinDR (talk) 15:41, 26 June 2019 (UTC)

Proposed updates
Hello. I am Charlie's wife and am helping him update this page and provide sources in response to the notes asking for more substantiation. We would love for someone to sub in the following first paragraph:

Charles Trueheart (born September 5, 1951) is an American writer, former newspaper correspondent and non-profit executive. He was a reporter for The Washington Post from 1986 to 2000 and director of the American Library in Paris from 2007 to 2017.

https://americanlibraryinparis.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/ALP-EX-LIBRIS-2017-2-JUN.pdf

And we would like to add a new second paragraph:

His book on Vietnam during the Kennedy years, Diplomats at War: Friendship and Betrayal on the Brink of the Vietnam Conflict, will be published by the University of Virginia Press in February 2024.

Also, the paragraph about me is out of date and should be updated or removed. I suggest

Trueheart is married to Anne Swardson, a retired Washington Post correspondent and ex-editor at Bloomberg News. She now blogs and writes Paris-based mystery fiction. They have two grown children.

Talk:David Neuberger, Baron Neuberger of Abbotsbury

Criticism by Derek Simpson
I have removed the following from the article, for the second time, and after User:Piano non troppo has removed it once before:

The anonymous contributor who wrote this left the following comment on my talk page:
 * Dear Hans, You said "This is a biography in an encyclopaedia, not the "Letters to the editor" section of a newspaper. And it's not even in the source given."
 * Firstly, the piece that I added to the David Neuberger Wiki page was relevant to the biography page as it was just reporting a fact in the recent professional life of that man. Secondly, I have just second checked the BBC reference links and they both refer directly to the biographical piece that I added.
 * Therefore, I have again added the piece. —Preceding unsigned comment added by <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 17:31, 22 May 2010 (UTC)

Here is a more detailed explanation than fits into an edit summary:
 * "On 20 May 2010 David Neuberger was criticized by [...] Derek Simpson". This is not supported by the second reference (which consists of a written article and a video):
 * The article does not mention any criticism of David Neuberger by anybody at all. It does say: "'We shouldn't have been in this process,' said Unite's Derek Simpson. BA was 'disappointed' with the ruling." From this we can guess that Derek Simpson doesn't like Neuberger's dissenting opinion, but that's hardly enough for claiming that he criticised him.
 * The closest thing to a criticism of Neuberger in the video is the following: "I am grateful to [the other two] [...] The Mater of the Rolls made a slightly different view by arguing for a more rigid application of that particular requirement [...] for [...] not reporting [...] even though we actually did report it." Is that what you mean? It's a big stretch to summarise this as if Simpson had engaged in judge-bashing.
 * This claim wouldn't even pass our normal standards of verifiability, but for matters regarding living people we have even higher standards, see WP:BLP.
 * It is also totally irrelevant to Neuberger's overall biography. It's like inserting the sentence "In 1959 a mother complained that Churchill had bumped into her little son, making him drop his icecream" into Winston S. Churchill. See WP:Recentism for a description of the difference between an encyclopedia and the daily press.
 * If it should ever become apparent that this case becomes relevant to Neuberger, as opposed to Neuberger being relevant to the case, then it can be discussed. The standard for this is approximately that someone who doesn't work for BA and is not a trade union functionary might, in twenty years from now, reasonably say something like: "Neuberger? Wasn't that the bloke who got Unite vs. BA so spectacularly wrong?" This doesn't seem at all plausible to me.
 * Seriously. We cannot, in every article about a judge, list every individual instance of the judge getting something wrong or someone criticising the judge. We are writing an encyclopedia, not a copy of Google. Hans Adler 18:11, 22 May 2010 (UTC)

 * Trying a different approach I looked for any articles with Neuberger and Simpson, and found very few, and none with criticism. Then tried looking for any criticism of Neuberger. There's just nothing to support the first half of this edit, and without that there is no need for either it or the second half. Weakopedia (talk) 21:06, 22 May 2010 (UTC)

 * I don't think we needed to completely delete a good citation referring to Lord Neuberger MR. When you're correcting what you view to be bias from unregistered editors, don't make the mistake of going too far and getting rid of everything they do! There's often some useful stuff.

Post-nominal letters and honorific styling
I can't find any evidence that Neuberger uses the post nominal letters GBS & HonFRS. I haven't removed them for now, but this is something which should be considered.

Additionally, sources typically style him as "The Rt Hon the Lord Neuberger of Abbotsbury", with Rt Hon being used to denote his status as a member of the privy council. However, this is not reflected in the article. Editing with Eric (talk) 13:34, 6 March 2020 (UTC)

Tessarakonteres

Tessarakonteres (τεσσαρακοντήρης, "forty-rowed"), or simply "forty", was a very large catamaran galley reportedly built in the Hellenistic period by Ptolemy IV Philopator of Egypt. It was described by a number of ancient sources, including a lost work by Callixenus of Rhodes and surviving texts by Athenaeus and Plutarch. According to these descriptions, supported by modern research by Lionel Casson, the enormous size of the vessel made it impractical and it was built only as a prestige vessel, rather than an effective warship. The name "forty" refers not to the number of oars, but to the number of rowers on each column of oars that propelled it, and at the size described it would have been the largest ship constructed in antiquity, and probably the largest human-powered vessel ever built.

Configuration of the oars
The trireme, a three-ranked galley with one man per oar, was the main Hellenistic warship up to and into the 4th century BC. At that time, a requirement for heavier ships led to the development of "polyremes" meaning "many oars", applied to "fours" (tetre- in Greek, quadri- in Latin) or more and "fives" (penta- in Greek, quinque- in Latin) and later up to "tens", the largest that seems to have been used in battle. Larger polyremes were built, with Ptolemy II Philadelphus eventually building a "twenty" and a "thirty", and Ptolemy IV Philopator building the "forty".

The maximum practical number of oar ranks a ship could have logistically was three (Greek and Latin tri-). Beyond three, the number in the type name did not refer to the number of ranks of oars any more (as for biremes and triremes, respectively two and three ranks of oars with one rower per oar), but to the number of rowers per vertical section, with several men on each oar. Indeed, just because a ship was designated with a larger type number did not mean it necessarily had or operated all three possible ranks: the quadrireme may have been a simple evolution of a standard trireme, but with two rowers on the top oar; it may also have been a bireme with two men on each oar; or it may just have had a single rank with four men on each single oar. Classes of ship could differ in their configuration between regions and over time, but in no case did a "four" ship have four horizontal ranks of oars.

From galleys used in the 16th to 18th centuries AD, it is known that the maximum number of men that can operate a single oar efficiently is eight. Further, Casson writes that the oars were the proper length for no more than eight rowers.

Mention by Callixenus of the "forty's" thranite (the uppermost rowing level of a trireme) oars leads Casson to determine that the "forty" had three ranks. He points to the practical limit of eight rowers to an oar, giving a maximum size class of "twenty-four", as well as to the need for a vastly larger deck than one ship could provide in order to accommodate the reported numbers of marines. Combined with Callixenus description of the ship having two heads and two sterns, Casson suggests that the "forty" must have been a catamaran made up of two three-ranked "twenties" joined by a deck. Each column or section of the ship would be composed of twenty rowers; perhaps eight rowers on each section's top rank, seven in the middle, and five on the bottom rank.

Specifications

As a catamaran of two "twentys" with 4,000 oarsmen, there would be 2,000 per hull and therefore 1,000 per side. The 130 m length would allow ample room for the 50 vertical sections of three oars each, with each vertical section accommodating 20 rowers (hence the designation "twenty"). Thus there would be 150 oars per side. Casson has suggested that it was possible that the two internal sides were not equipped with oars and that the rowers there acted as reserve crew for those on the outer side, so the "forty" would have had either 300 or 600 oars.

 * Beam: 38 cubits, 57 ft (per catamaran hull if Casson is correct)
 * Height from waterline to tip of stern: 53 cubits, 79.5 ft
 * Height from waterline to tip of prow: 48 cubits, 72 ft
 * Length of steering oars (4): 30 cubits, 45 ft
 * Longest rowing oars: 38 cubits, 57 ft
 * Oarsmen: 4,000
 * Officers, ratings, deckhands: 400
 * Marines: 2,850

Use
It had seven naval rams, with one primary, and the deck would have provided a stable platform for catapults that were often mounted on supergalleys. However, the "forty" was likely just a showpiece; Plutarch describes the ship as for exhibition only.

Launch
In order to launch the huge ship the engineers devised a – then novel – dry dock construction:

"But after that a Phoenician devised a new method of launching it (the Tessarakonteres), having dug a trench under it, equal to the ship itself in length, which he dug close to the harbour. And in the trench he built props of solid stone five cubits deep, and across them he laid beams crosswise, running the whole width of the trench, at four cubits' distance from one another; and then making a channel from the sea he filled all the space which he had excavated with water, out of which he easily brought the ship by the aid of whatever men happened to be at hand; then closing the entrance which had been originally made, he drained the water off again by means of engines (organois); and when this had been done the vessel rested securely on the before-mentioned cross-beams."

It has been calculated that the dock might have needed around 750,000 gallons of water to lift up the vessel.

Controversy
Even in the 19th century, the fabulous description of the vessel has been questioned. Given the technical problem that the vessel face in a ship of such size, the vessel would not have existed at all, or the description given was an exaggeration. Frank Boott Goodrich (1858) pointed out several problems of the vessel:

 * The vessel was originally stated to be forty tiers (of rowers). The vessel would need oars of some 70 feet in length for the topmost tier, this is unlikely to be made during the era.
 * Since the number of oars and oarsmen is stated to be 4000, they would have been hard to manage, since each man need to manage an oar of huge size.
 * The size of the complement is fantastical too, 2850 combatant and 4000 rowers, a total of 6850 men.
 * The vessel was said to have "double prows", if this is interpreted as catamaran, the force and pressure of water would separate them due to the great resistance exerted by the huge size of the vessel.
 * The huge size of the vessel would prove to be very hard to maneuver, a U-turn would need about 1 hour in a large radius.

Puzzles/Logic puzzles/Three Knights/Solution

Puzzles | Logic puzzles | Three Knights | Solution

The small knight is the Knight of Life. The fat knight is the Knight of the Dungeon. The tall knight is the Knight of Death.

Reasoning
The tall knight is not the Knight of the Dungeon, since if he were neither of the other knights could be the Knight of Life. Since he lied, he is not the Knight of Life. Therefore, the tall knight is the Knight of Death. The small knight must then be the Knight of Life, leaving the fat knight as the Knight of the Dungeon.

Provided the fat knight tells the truth he can not be the Knight of Life as he is pointing out the tall knight as Knight of Life. The answer of the tall knight contradicts the answer of the fat knight. Therefore, the fat knight was lying. The tall knight can not be the Knight of Life, because he would have said so when directly asked, who he is. We can conclude that the small knight is the Knight of Life and he is pointing out the tall Knight as Knight of Death as he is always telling the truth. The last job position left for the fat knight is the Knight of Dungeon.

The convict can be happy that the tall knight did not answer: 'Yes, I am the Knight of Life'. In this context, it would have been possible and would have left our convict very unfortunate, because his chance to find the Knight of Life would have been reduced by 50%

A better tactic would be to ask each Knight: "If I asked you who the Knight of Life was, whom might you identify?" The Knight of Life would correctly identify himself. If asked "Who is the Knight of Life?" the Knight of Death would incorrectly identify either himself or the Knight of the Dungeon. Hence, when asked how he might respond, he would lie again, and state that he would have identified the correct Knight of Life (double negative). The Knight of the Dungeon is the unknown quantity, but when at least two Knights agree on someone, that is the correct identification.

Unfortunately not foolproof, as if he would have identified the Knight of the Dungeon for his first lie, he could then pick to instead identify the Knight of Death for his second lie.
