Psephosauriscus

Psephosauriscus is an extinct genus of placodont reptile from the Middle Triassic of Israel and Egypt. It is known from bony armor plates that have been found from Makhtesh Ramon in Israel's Negev desert and Araif en Naqua on Egypt's Sinai Peninsula. The genus was erected in 2002 as a replacement name for several species of the genus Psephosaurus, which was named in 1957. It includes the species P. mosis, P. ramonensis, P. sinaiticus, and a possible fourth species, P. rhombifer. All species, with the exception of P. ramonensis, were once assigned to the genus Psephosaurus. Remains of P. mosis and P. ramonensis were found in Makhtesh Ramon, while P. sinaiticus and P. rhombifer were found in Araif en Naqua.

History
Armor of Psephosauriscus is abundant in Middle Triassic limestone in the Sinai and Negev regions, which is comparable to the Muschelkalk of European rock sequences. While the German Muschelkalk contains many nearly complete skeletons of placodonts, the only non-armor skeletal bones from the Middle East are two partial skulls and a fragmentary lower jaw, which cannot be assigned to Psephosauriscus or any other placodont because of their lack of diagnostic features. Remains of Psephosauriscus come from two deposits called the Beneckeia beds and the Ceratites beds, named after their most common ammonite fossils. The Beneckeia beds date back to the Anisian stage of the Middle Triassic, and the Ceratites beds date back to the end of the Anisian and beginning of the Ladinian stage.

Swedish paleontologist F. Brotzen described placodont armor from Makhtesh Ramon in 1957, naming the species Psephosaurus mosis and Psephosaurus picardi from the Beneckeia and Ceratites beds, respectively. P. picardi is now considered a nomen dubium because it was based on an impression of the inner surface of the carapace that did not possess any distinct features. In 1959, Austrian paleontologist Georg Haas named P. sinaiticus and P. rhombifer from Araif en Naqua.

In 2002, paleontologist Olivier Rieppel erected the genus Psephosauriscus to include most of the species named by Brotzen and Haas, which he considered distinct from the type species of Psephosaurus, P. suevicus, named by Eberhard Fraas from the Middle Triassic of Germany. Rieppel noted differences between the armor plates of P. suevicus and the Middle Eastern species that warranted a new genus. However, P. rhombifer could not be assigned with certainty to Psephosauriscus because the holotype specimen described by Haas had since been lost. Rieppel reported additional material from Araif en Naqua that showed similarities to P. rhombifer and the species of Psephosauriscus, which he tentatively described as a species within Psephosauriscus, ''Psephosauriscus cf. rhombifer''. Rieppel also named Psephosauriscus ramonensis as an entirely new species.

Species
The type species of Psephosauriscus, P. mosis, is known from a single specimen including portions of the carapace and plastron. The scutes that cover the armor plates do not have as well-defined a shape as the hexagonal osteoderms that lay underneath them. The osteoderms that form the plastron are relatively large. Some osteoderms have a raised keel. Two distinct ridges along either side of the shell separate the carapace, a lateral wall of smaller osteoderms, and the plastron.

P. ramonensis is known from a partial carapace and connected plastron. The osteoderms of the carapace have smoother edges than most other species of Psephosauriscus, and lack the keel of species like P. mosis. The carapace curves into the lateral wall of the body without a separating ridge as in P. mosis, but a lower ridge does separate the lateral wall from the plastron.

P. sinaiticus is known from several armor fragments and larger pieces of the carapace and plastron. The osteoderms of the carapace and plastron are smaller than those of other species. As in P. mosis, two ridges separate run along the side of the shell.

''P. cf. rhombifer can be distinguished from the three other species of Psephosauriscus'' by the rectangular shape of its scutes. Unlike the smooth shells of other species, the carapace of ''P. cf. rhombifer'' has a bumpy surface; each osteoderm is covered in radiating grooves and has a small depression at its center.

Film Scoring/Melody/Creating the sound of drama with GarageBand and symphony orchestra

Lesson Summary - "Tiny bells all in a row"
In this lesson, you learn to create musical sound effects with repeating patterns. That means we use rhythm to create the mood. Here is how we will do this:

1. On one track of GarageBand, select four notes to be played by high pitched bells. Make the notes very short so they entire sequence plays in one second or less.

2. Drag the region so it repeats for about four seconds (about four times). Now you have sixteen bell sounds in four seconds.

Now we have a good feeling. But if we want more, we can try many different things to enhance this sound.

3. With a soft sounding instrument on another track, play the same four notes slowly, one per second.

Using this a base, you can add even more tracks with additional sounds to enhance the sound.

Where are we?
This lesson is the second of three lessons in film scoring for non-musicians (filmmakers).

1. Creating music with individual notes. In the previous lesson, we learned that by using symphonic instruments in GarageBand, we can create many different moods with just a single note.

2. Creating music with rhythm.

In this lesson, we will learn that we can create moods with tiny rhythms.

3. Creating music with melody. In the next lesson, we will learn to create moods with simple melodies.

Hopefully, soon, this lesson will be greatly expanded with lots of examples. For now, if you think you can do it, please go ahead and try.
 * More info someday...

Simplify, simpify, simplify!
For this lesson, you use midi files to create a film score.

1. Locate great sounding midi files from classical music (before 1900).

2. Isolate a single phrase, usually one to three seconds long.

3. Isolate a single instrument (or two) from the entire. You want the main melody without much else.

4. Built the music sound effect from these few notes (or cords) by assigning the elements to different instruments of the symphony orchestra which create the emotion you are looking for. This will always be different from the original musical instruments.

The goal is to get a professional sound which is simple and pure.

Larry Stark

Larry Stark (born August 4, 1932 in New Brunswick, New Jersey) is an American journalist and reviewer best known for his in-depth coverage of the Boston theater scene at his website, Theater Mirror. In newspapers and online, Stark has written hundreds of reviews of local productions and Broadway tryouts from 1962 to the present. His Boston readers have given him such labels as "head theater angel of Massachusetts" and "Dean of the alternative theater critics."

Early work
In 1950 Stark discovered EC Comics (publishers of Tales From The Crypt, Weird Science, and MAD among others) and was soon writing enthusiastic letters of comment and criticism on every issue. Publisher Bill Gaines was so impressed with his critiques that he named him "EC's Official Number One Fan" and bestowed upon him a free subscription to everything EC published, provided that Stark would keep the detailed letters of review coming. EC colorist Marie Severin made a gag sign for Gaines' office that read "God help us to write stories that will please Larry Stark!" Stark’s letters were occasionally excerpted in the E.C. letters columns but EC fans wanted to read them in their entirety, as Gaines did. The first "fanzine" to satisfy that demand was Bhob Stewart and Ted White's POTRZEBIE, in which Stewart wrote that “POTRZEBIE’S main purpose in life is to present the criticism of Stark…sans censorship. You rarely get to peruse his monstrous prose other than a few sentences in the E.C. letter columns. EC values his opinions so much that Gaines has given Larry a free lifetime subscription to all the EC Comics on the condition that he will write EC a letter about each issue telling what he liked and didn’t like about it. Now you’ll know too. Thru POTRZEBIE.” Stark’s column was titled ONE MAN’S OPINION and ran through a change in editorship for POTRZEBIE, later continuing in THE EC FAN JOURNAL. Stark made several visits to the EC offices and his "Elegy" to EC, originally published in HOOHAH #6 (1956), has been reprinted over the years in multiple formats. Most recently it was included in its entirety in "American Comic Book Chronicles: The 1950s" by Bill Schelly (2013).

Between 1950 and 1956, Stark studied English at Rutgers University, leaving New Jersey for Cambridge, Massachusetts in January, 1957. In 1956-57 he co-edited the publication Stellar with Ted White, who recalled:
 * I lavished more care on the package than I did on the contents. The contents were good. Larry Stark was a good editor -- much better than I, then -- and when he dropped out I'd learned enough from him to keep up the standards, but the material was mostly by other people.

In the summer and fall of 1957, Stark acted in two Harvard stage productions and then worked backstage at Cambridge theaters for the next five years. In 1962, he began doing theater reviews for MIT's The Tech under the pseudonym Charles Foster Ford. During this period he used a basement mimeograph machine to print the work of local poets with his Larry Stark Press, notable for publishing Peter Guralnick's first book in 1964.

Theater reviews
Stark was the first to write theater reviews for the alternative weekly, Boston After Dark, providing a continual coverage of Boston and Broadway-bound productions during the years 1966 to 1972. After circulating his own short-lived review publication, Theatre Journal, he contributed to Time Out, a free college paper published by The Cambridge Phoenix. During the 1980s, he wrote for Wisconsin's La Crosse Tribune.

Returning to the Boston area, he acquired a computer which he used to create fiction and also to write theater reviews posted on General Electric's online service, GEnie. In October 1994, he launched Theater Mirror, an informative online guide to New England theatres and stage productions. With insightful reviews and entertaining commentary by Stark, plus a continual flow of reviews submitted by several other contributors, Theater Mirror became a focal point for Boston actors, directors and theatergoers over the years. The Plays Up and Running section of Theater Mirror offers an alphabetical listing of current productions throughout New England with links to theatres from Connecticut to Maine. The Theater Mirror Archive has reviews by Stark and others dating back to 1995.

Stark's approach is much like that of film critic Pauline Kael, simply to describe "what it's about," and he often attempts to capture the essence of a play stylistically, as in this 2001 review of Conor McPherson's The Weir:
 * Now it's no secret the Irish is great ones for the tellin of stories, especially in them small rural bars in the Northwest country where Conor McPherson sets his hour and a half slice o'life "The Weir". Surely there's not much else to do but to drink and to gossip with a few mates of an afternoon. And once a "small one" or two's been chased down with a bottle of stout, them tales of somethin strange and maybe supernatural just come tumblin out. Better that than a lonely walk home with the wind in yer face, isn't it, now?

Stark's book, A Theater Lover's Guide to 90 Theatres in Boston, was published in 2001. For The Tech, 38 years earlier, he wrote A Guide to Harvard Square's 15 Bookstores.

On August 10, 2006, Stark was honored by the Boston theater community at a special tribute and celebration of his 74th birthday.

Documentary film
Actress-filmmaker Bernice Liuson Sim of RedDragonfly Films released a documentary about Stark titled Stark Review: The Heart of Boston Theater. On September 17, 2006, pilot footage for Stark Review was screened for an audience of 600 in Arlington, Massachusetts, and 12 days later, Sim, Stark and co-producer Kevin Anderton discussed the Stark Review project with film critic Daniel Berman on Brookline Access Television. The film premiered April 8, 2013 at Boston's Lyric Stage.

Elizabeth Weber

Elizabeth Weber (born 18 June 1923) is the pen-name of Elizabeth Marais (née Elizabeth Olivier). She flourished during a short, intense period of high-quality literary production in Afrikaans between the years 1949 and 1952 (see Bibliography below), after which, apart from translations of children’s literature from English into Afrikaans, and nursery stories in Afrikaans published sometime thereafter, she disappeared from public view.

Biography
She was born on 18 June 1923 in Germiston, a small city on the East Rand, to the east of Johannesburg. She matriculated in 1939 from the local English high school, and thereafter took the BA degree at the University of the Witwatersrand with Afrikaans, English and Classics as majors. After a year at a teachers’ training college, she taught Afrikaans until the end of 1947, when she left to work in radio-broadcasting at the Afrikaans Language section of the BBC in London. After a three-year stay abroad, she returned to Johannesburg to an office job with a publisher and book distribution organization, probably the now defunct APB (Afrikaans Pers-Boekhandel) whose headquarters were at 769 Joubert Street in Johannesburg, South Africa. Significantly, the author published her entire oeuvre through APB. She then returned to teaching, after which nothing more is recorded of her work or whereabouts.

She married Mr. Sarel Marais, and had two sons of that union. She also had one brother, the Reverend Phil Olivier of Cape Town, who was also an author, and a younger sister, who dedicated her life to music.

She received honourable mention from the scions of Afrikaans literary critique, Nienaber, Senekal, and Bothma, who, writing in the early 1950s, stated, “... amongst the many writers (especially authoresses) in the field of complex love relationships, Elizabeth Weber, with her understanding of how complex relationships develop, and her gift for being able to express ‘the relative’ in human relations, has produced substantive literary material ...”.

Waar is die liefde?
Possibly her most acclaimed work, Waar is die liefde? was published in 1950 by APB in their Môrester series. The novel has, as mise-en-scène, the private cabins and decks of a liner en route from Cape Town to England where happenstance and fate all play havoc with a marriage under stress. As a book critic of the now-defunct newspaper, Die Vaderland, wrote, “What the author offers here is presumably the reworking of a trip that she herself had made. It is clear that Elizabeth Weber has a pair of wide-awake, wide-open eyes. She has the ability to rapidly distil and process her observations, and then, in elegant style, to express them. The density of the language, the torrent of delicate and fine observations, the aura of sense, feeling and sentiments, and the angst of self-awareness in her writing are all reminiscent of the style and intent of Marcel Proust in ''Remembrance of Things Past".

Talk:Rollie's Coaster

Redirect from AFD?
Pinging you as you are a lead editor in project amusement parks.

Why did someone back in 2012 revert the edit to change this into a redirect? The AFD discussion had a consensus on redirect and no one performed it. Do you or anyone else know why this is still an article? AmericanAir88 (talk) 18:05, 1 August 2018 (UTC)

 * Well, any editor could search the history here to find out. It looks like this edit by on August 19, 2012, unilaterally reversed the AfD decision. A warning about that from  was given here, and it looks like a few references were added since then to backup some of the claims, turning it into a proper stub article.Should it remain as a standalone article? Unless we really think it's a notable subject that can eventually be expanded beyond 10-15 sentences, it probably should be put back to a redirect. Any coverage of the coaster that is necessary to keep can be moved to the park's main article. I don't think another AfD would be needed to decide that either. --GoneIn60 (talk) 04:56, 2 August 2018 (UTC)
 * It has multiple reliable and independent sources. It should not be returned to a redirect. IronGargoyle (talk) 22:19, 2 August 2018 (UTC)
 * I disagree. A closer look here reveals that there are only three non-primary sources to consider in regard to the article's notability, one of which is RCDB.com. RCDB is reliable for statistics, but it does not in any way support the case for a standalone article. So that leaves us with two. Both of those are being cited for ride review comments, and the comments themselves make the coaster seem insignificant by referring to the ride experience as mild or mediocre. So aside from proof that the coaster exists, we have very, very little to go on in terms of notability. A revisit in an AfD would likely reach the same conclusion; the article content here should be merged into Morey's Piers (which unsurprisingly doesn't even mention the roller coaster, considering it is insignficant). --GoneIn60 (talk) 04:19, 3 August 2018 (UTC)
 * The contents of the reviews are not what matters. What matters is that there are reviews to be found in reliable, independent sources (there are more than just these two btw). So what if the reviews say the ride is mild or mediocre? WP:GNG doesn't mandate that coverage addresses any particular topic (e.g., ride safety, history, architectural uniqueness) and it certainly does not mandate that the coverage is positive or laudatory. While it would certainly be possible to open another AfD, I don't think that's a warranted or a useful direction for project time. I am also worried that you thought this could be reverted to a redirect without further discussion. That shows a disappointing misunderstanding of policy. IronGargoyle (talk) 22:21, 7 August 2018 (UTC)

, I must have missed your reply all those years ago. First, let me state that I have cleaned up several of the references and removed improperly cited claims. The article, in its cleaner form, now contains a grand total of 4 references, 3 of which are secondary sources. A thorough web search turns up two additional reliable sources here and here. Let's break these down: Only sources #5 and #6 should be used to evaluate WP:SIGCOV. The rest either briefly mention the topic in passing or are not independent of the subject, so we can cross those off. Of the two that remain, neither source appears to contain the level of detail necessary to satisfy WP:GNG. Various amusement rides often come in with a bang, receiving flash-in-the-pan news coverage of a promotional nature, but the insignificant ones rarely attain sustained coverage over time, offering little-to-no opportunity for expansion. Rollie's Coaster is a perfect example of this, a dime a dozen roller coaster that should be merged into a larger topic, the Morey's Piers park article. The information can be preserved in a ride chart that lists the ride and a brief description – a good example of one is at Kings Island.In a nutshell, standalone articles for many rides are overkill. We should also keep in mind the previous result at Articles for deletion/Rollies Coaster. Curious to hear your thoughts. If needed, we can solicit outside opinion, thanks. --GoneIn60 (talk) 06:47, 23 August 2023 (UTC)

Tables are used for presenting tabular data. They can be inserted anywhere on the page, even within other tables. We will be looking at creating a basic table and then adding lots of tags to it so we can see just what the outcome will be. Experimentation is the name of the game here. The tags most useful when creating tables are

Every table begins with a
 tag and ends with a
 tag. In the table tag, you can define the attributes of the table, as you will see later.

The table contains rows, each begins with the
 table row tag and optionally ends with the
 tag. Rows must be inside tables.

The rows contain cells, each begins with the  table data tag and optionally ends with the 	 tag. Cells must be inside rows.

If you put a table cell outside a row, or if you forget to close a cell, or row, or table it will have unpredictable results. Text intended to be in the table may appear at an unexpected position, outside the table. At worst, the entire contents of the table will not be displayed.

For example, in IE and Firefox:
 * A cell outside a row is treated as in a separate row at the vertical position concerned
 * All content outside cells, whether in a row or not, is put before the whole table, in the order in which it occurs; IE puts each item on a new line; Firefox does not, but puts in some cases a blank space between items.

If the optional and are not put, the above refers to content before the first row, and in rows before the first element only. Note that is required; if it is forgotten all following content is considered part of the last cell of the last row, even further tables.

Task - Create a table

 * 1) Open your default.htm and save it as table.htm in the appropriate folder
 * 2) Create this HTML code in the body of the document
 * 1) Save the file and view it in the browser.

The result is:

It doesn't look too much like a table yet, but we'll add more soon.

Note: This table is made up of two rows (check out the two
 tags) and within each row there are two data entries (the two  tags)

You might compare a table with a spreadsheet. This one has two rows and two columns making 4 cells containing data. ( 2 rows x 2 columns = 4 cells )

Caption and headings
Let us start with a quick example:

Captions are useful for defining or describing the content of the table. They are optional.

To add a caption to a table, enter the  element after the opening   tag, with the text of the caption inside the element, as shown in the following.

Captions are usually displayed outside the border of the table, at the top. The exact appearance and placement of captions is subject to CSS styling.

Table headings are a way of defining the contents of the table columns. They are usually only used in the first
, table row.

Instead of using a  for the cell, we use a .

By default the text in table headings is displayed bold and centered.

The Syntax is:
text	text

Task - Table Caption and Headings

 * 1) Open your table.html file
 * 2) Add your own caption to the table
 * 3) View the result
 * 4) Add the table headings ITEMS and $ PRICE for the table
 * 5) View the result

Borders
A border around a table is optional: sometimes they help to define the table, and sometimes the table looks better without them.

However having borders turned on while you are creating the table is a very good idea since it makes tables much easier to work with. You can get rid of the border once the table is completed.

The default value is 0 (i.e. borderless).

Border is an attribute of the table tag. The syntax is:

 where X is the border size in pixels.

You can also specify a border colour, although this is an Internet Explorer tag only. The syntax is:

Note that it is not recommended to specify the border colour using HTML - it is much better to use CSS for this purpose.

Task - Create a border around a table

 * 1) Open your table.htm file.
 * 2) In the
 tag, add border="2" i.e.
.
 * 3) Save the file and view it.
 * 4) Change the size of the border (i.e., try 0, 10, and try a crazy number).
 * 5) View the results as you go.

Did you spot that only the outside border gets bigger?

Height and Width
A table, by default, will be as large as the data that is entered into it.

We can change the overall height and width of the table to get it the size we want.

It is possible to give the size in absolute pixels, or as a relative percentage of the screen size.

The syntax is:
 where ??? is the size in pixels or percentage.

It is also possible to control the dimensions of individual table cells or rows.

e.g.

It is possible to mix absolute and relative heights and widths.

Note that you can do the same thing with CSS by changing the padding.

Task - Define the size of a table

 * 1) Open your table.htm file.
 * 2) In the
 tag, we will add the height and width e.g.

 * 3) Save the file and then view it. Resize the browser window, and watch what happens - the table size stays the same.
 * 4) Experiment changing the measurements and view the file again.
 * 5) Now replace the pixels measurements with percentages e.g.

 * 6) Save the file and then view it. Resize the browser window, and watch what happens - this time the table changes size as the window size changes.

Cell Spacing and Cell Padding

Cell Spacing is the number of pixels between the table cells.

Cell Padding is the pixel space inside the cells. i.e. the distance between the information and the sides of the table cells.

Both these options are attributes of the
 tag

e.g.

Note: The default for both is 2

Task - Cell Spacing and Padding

 * 1) Open your table.htm file. Make sure that your table has a large height and width set (e.g. 300x200) - if not then you won't be able to see the effect of cellpadding and cellspacing.
 * 2) Experiment with changing the size of the table border, cellspacing and cellpadding. Try different combinations of 0, 1, 5, 10,etc.
 * 3) View the result each time

Alignment of table cells
The default alignment of the contents of table cells is left and vertically centered.

If you want to change the alignment of cells, it has to be done individually for each cell. The align command is included in the  tag. You can also change the alignment of an entire row by specifying the alignment in the
 tag

Horizontal alignment Syntax:  where position is left, center, or right or
 where position is left, center, or right

Vertical alignment Syntax:  where position is top, middle or bottom or
 where position is top, middle or bottom

You can also include align and valign commands in the table row tag and in the table tag.

Note: Including  or   in the   tag does NOT align the contents of the table. Instead it aligns the whole table on the page. i.e., it makes the text outside the table wrap around the table.

Task - Alignment of table cells

 * 1) Open your table.htm file
 * 2) Change the alignment of the table cells so that they look like:

or

 * 1) Experiment with other vertical and horizontal alignments.
 * 2) View the result each time

Row span and column span
Every row must have the same number of table datas, occasionally table datas have to span more than one column or row. In this case the tags colspan and/or rowspan are used - where they are set to a number.

Syntax:
 *  where X is the number of columns that the cell spans across.
 *  where X is the number of rows that the cell spans across.

Task - Row span and column span

 * 1) Open your table.htm file.
 * 2) Experiment with making one table cell span across multiple rows.
 * 3) Experiment with making one table cell span across multiple columns.
 * 4) View the result each time.

Background colour and images
It is possible to give each table cell, (or row, or table) a different background colour.

Syntax: where colour is a colour name or hexadecimal code.

Note: table background colours only display in version 3 browsers and above, and they may not print correctly.

Note: it is not recommended to specify background colours using HTML - it is much better to use Cascading Style Sheets for this purpose.

A background image is another modification of the appearance of a cell, row, or a complete table. Again these only display in version 3 browsers and above, and they may not print correctly.

Syntax: where filename is the path and filename of the background image.

Note: it is not recommended to specify background images using HTML - it is much better to use CSS for this purpose.

Task - Background colour and images

 * 1) Open your table.htm file.
 * 2) Experiment with changing the background colour of a table cell, a table row, and the table itself.
 * 3) Add a background image to a table cell, a table row, and the table itself.
 * 4) View the result each time.

Column groups
To specify a given format for a table column, you can use the and tags. These tags are located at the top of the table, and specify the default format for the given column.

With the <col> tag, the first instance indicates the formatting for the first column, the second for the second column, and so on. <colgroup> works similarly, but also includes the span tag to cover multiple columns.

Abusing Tables
Before CSS took off, tables were commonly misused to make page layouts. While you may see old sites designed this way, it is now considered bad practice to use tables in place of CSS.

Consider when and when not to use a table. For example, a single column table is almost always better off implemented as a list.

Summary
In this module you learn how to:

 * Create and customize HTML tables,
 * Control their dimensions and appearance,
 * Add a caption to a table,
 * Control the alignment of the table contents,
 * Various attributes of the table tags.

Schoenus arenicola

Schoenus arenicola is a species of sedge endemic to the south-west coast of South Africa.

Description
Key diagnostic characters of this sand-loving species include reddish-brown leaf sheaths and relatively narrow flowering heads (inflorescences) with generally three to six spikelets. The leaves of this species are usually less than half the length of the culm and the nutlet beak is continuous with the body of the nutlet.

Schoenus arenicola is most similar to Schoenus compar; however, the former species has shorter leaves and reddish-brown leaf sheaths compared to the longer leaves and ivory leaf sheaths of S. compar.

Similar to other sedges, plants in this group are very difficult to identify. It appears that part of this problem is caused by the tendency of the southern African Schoenus to form hybrids with each other. However, hybridization is yet to be observed in S. arenicola.

Taxonomy
Schoenus arenicola is a species of flowering plant in the family Cyperaceae, tribe Schoeneae. Other genera in tribe Schoeneae include Lepidosperma, Oreobolus, Costularia, Tetraria and Gahnia.

Southern African Schoenus were once classified as Tetraria; however, based on molecular and morphological differences, the two groups are considered evolutionary distinct. To ensure that this group of sedges is monophyletic (i.e. the genus only has closely related species), several species of Epischoenus and the southern African Tetraria were transferred into Schoenus. In the field, the southern African Schoenus can be distinguished from Tetraria species by their lack of stem leaves and the absence of reticulate sheaths at the bases of the flowering stems.

Closely related species include the Schoenus compar - Schoenus pictus group.

Distribution and ecology
Schoenus arenicola mostly occurs near the south-western coast of South Africa, ranging from the Knysna area in the east to the Cape Peninsula in the west. This species usually grows among fynbos vegetation at low elevations on well-drained sandy sites.

Alton B. Parker 1904 presidential campaign

After U.S. President William McKinley was assassinated in 1901, Theodore Roosevelt became the new U.S. President. Roosevelt's first term was notable for his trust busting, his successful arbitration in and resolution of a 1902 strike of 150,000 Pennsylvania coal miners, his advocacy against lynching, his conservation efforts, and the Panama Canal Treaty. In 1904, Roosevelt easily defeated Bourbon Democrat Alton Parker and won a second term as U.S. President.

The nomination fight
After his two defeats in 1896 and 1900, former Congressman William Jennings Bryan rejected the idea of a third consecutive run for the White House. Meanwhile, the campaign of early front-runner Maryland Senator Arthur Pue Gorman fizzled out once he announced his opposition to the Panama Canal Treaty (a treaty which was endorsed not only by almost all U.S. Senate Republicans, but also by almost half of all U.S. Senate Democrats). After Gorman's withdrawal, former President Grover Cleveland was discussed as an ideal candidate by the conservative faction of the Democratic Party, but he preferred to remain in retirement and thus refused to run in 1904. In addition, Richard Olney, the Attorney General and Secretary of State in Cleveland's second term, who had run in the previous two elections, also chose not to run. After Bryan, Gorman, Cleveland, and Olney withdrew themselves from consideration, no prominent Democrat emerged to seek the 1904 Democratic presidential nomination. Indeed, this was caused in no small part by the widespread belief that President Roosevelt was almost guaranteed to win a second term in 1904.

The Democrats eventually united around Alton Parker, the Chief Judge of the New York Court of Appeals, as their 1904 presidential nominee. Parker had been the campaign manager for New York Governor David B. Hill in 1885 and acquired a reputation for fairness, competence, and courtesy as a judge. As a judge, his record contained evidence of deference to legislatures, strict construction, and recognition of labor rights. While he would have preferred to be appointed to the U.S. Supreme Court, he was persuaded to run for President in 1904 by David B. Hill.

Parker played well to the Democratic Party's white base by refusing to criticize the lynchings and denial of black suffrage in the South. He argued in a speech before the Georgia Bar Association that the 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution was not originally understood as granting Congress or the Supreme Court the authority to restrict states' rights. In addition, Parker supported the gold standard and tariff reform and opposed an expansionist and imperialist foreign policy. But unlike other pro-gold standard Democrats, he had loyally supported Bryan in 1896 and had not been involved in intraparty skirmishes. While Bryan opposed Parker, he also could not find any prominent candidates to challenge him for the Democratic nomination.

While he lacked Bryan's support, newspaper mogul William Randolph Hearst ran an energetic campaign for the 1904 Democratic nomination on a Progressive platform. Indeed, Hearst spent $1.4 million of his own money (equivalent to $ million in ) on his campaign. His bid failed because his views were contrary to the general direction of the party that year, other politicians were alienated by his arrogance, and his morals offended many of Bryan's supporters. Thus, Parker was able to win the nomination on the first ballot at the Democratic convention, winning 679 delegates to Hearst's 181. Meanwhile, 80-year-old former West Virginia U.S. Senator Henry Gassaway Davis was selected as Parker's running mate.

Campaign
Parker and the Democrats campaigned in favor of reduced federal spending (especially on the military), greater funding to improve national waterways, tariff reform, a thorough investigation of public corruption, direct election of U.S. Senators, arbitration of labor disputes, an eight-hour workday for federal employees, and campaign finance reform. They also condemned Republican imperialism in foreign policy, President Roosevelt's unconstitutional "executive usurpation" of legislative and judicial powers, trade protectionism, and antitrust legislation. In addition, Parker and the Democrats endorsed construction of "the Panama Canal speedily, honestly, and economically." To mollify the Silverites in the Democratic Party, a plank endorsing the gold standard was omitted (though Parker personally ran in favor of the gold standard) and, in return, Bryan's plank for a progressive income tax was left out to placate conservatives.

Unlike Bryan, who had aggressively campaigned throughout the entire country during the 1896 and 1900 campaigns, Parker ran a front porch campaign from his home in Esopus, New York. Parker received a boost when Bryan endorsed Parker after the convention and belatedly campaigned for him in October. Meanwhile, Hill, who managed Parker's campaign, sure of a landslide defeat in November, announced his retirement from politics in order to save Parker from guilt by association with Hill. Throughout the 1904 campaign, the Democrats raised less than $500,000 (equivalent to $ million in ), with more than half of it coming from Virginia tobacco magnate Thomas Fortune Ryan. In the final weeks of the campaign, Parker tried to save his campaign by undertaking a brief speaking tour at the insistence of desperate party leaders, but it was to no avail.

Results
President Roosevelt defeated Parker by a landslide, beating him 336 to 140 in the Electoral College and 56% to 38% in the national popular vote. It was the largest popular margin of victory in American history until the 1920 presidential election. Parker won only the 11 states of the former Confederacy and two border states, Kentucky and Maryland (with the latter by just 53 votes). Meanwhile, Roosevelt carried three border states (Delaware, Missouri, and West Virginia) and the nation's 29 other states.

In addition, Roosevelt's coattails allowed the Republican Party to win a majority of over 100 seats in the U.S. House of Representatives for the first time ever.

Secondary contact

Secondary contact is the process in which two allopatricaly distributed populations of a species are geographically reunited. This contact allows for the potential for the exchange of genes, dependent on how reproductively isolated the two populations have become. There are several primary outcomes of secondary contact: extinction of one species, fusion of the two populations back into one, reinforcement, the formation of a hybrid zone, and the formation of a new species through hybrid speciation.

Extinction
One of the two populations may go extinct due to competitive exclusion after secondary contact. This tends to happen when the two populations have strong reproductive isolation and significant overlap in their niche. A possible way to prevent extinction is if there is an advantage to being rare. For example, sexual imprinting and male-male competition may prevent extinction.

The population that goes extinct may leave behind some of its genes in the surviving population if they hybridize. For example, the secondary contact between Homo sapiens and Neanderthals, as well as the Denisovans, left traces of their genes in modern human. However, if hybridization is so common that the resulting population received significant amount of genetic contribution from both populations, the result should be considered a fusion.

Fusion
The two populations may fuse back into one population. This tends to occur when there is little to no reproductive isolation between the two. During the process of fusion a hybrid zone may occur. This is sometimes called introgressive hybridization or reverse speciation. Concerns have been raised that the homogenizing of the environment may contribute to more and more fusion, leading to the loss of biodiversity.

Hybrid zones
A hybrid zone may appear during secondary contact, meaning there would be an area where the two populations cohabitate and produce hybrids, often arranged in a cline. The width of the zone may vary from tens of meters to several hundred kilometers. A hybrid zone may be stable, or it may not. Some shift in one direction, which may eventually lead to the extinction of the receding population. Some expand over time until the two populations fuse.

Reinforcement may occur in hybrid zones.

Hybrid zones are important study systems for speciation.

Reinforcement
Reinforcement is the evolution towards increased reproductive isolation due to selection against hybridization. This occurs when the populations already have some reproductive isolation, but still hybridize to some extent. Because hybridization is costly (e.g. giving birth and raising a weak offspring), natural selection favors strong isolation mechanisms that can avoid such outcome, such as assortative mating. Evidence for speciation by reinforcement has been accumulating since the 1990s.

Hybrid speciation
Occasionally, the hybrids may be able to survive and reproduce, but not backcross with either of the two parental lineages, thus becoming a new species. This often occur in plants through polyploidy, including in many important food crops.

Occasionally, the hybrids may lead to the extinction of one or both parental lineages.

Adam Arkapaw

Adam Arkapaw is an Australian cinematographer. He is best known for his work on the television series Top of the Lake and True Detective, for which he has won two Creative Arts Emmy Awards. He is also known for his collaborations with director Justin Kurzel, whom he worked with on Snowtown, Macbeth, and Assassin's Creed.

Early life
Arkapaw was born in Bowral, a New South Wales town south of Sydney, and attended Bowral High School. He studied at the University of Melbourne's Victorian College of the Arts, graduating in 2006 with a Bachelor of Film and Television.

Career
In addition to numerous short films, Arkapaw photographed three Australian features over the next several years: Animal Kingdom (2010), Snowtown (2011), and Lore (2012). He received a nomination for the AACTA Award for Best Cinematography in 2010 for his work on Animal Kingdom and in 2011 he was named one of Variety magazine's "10 Cinematographers to Watch".

Arkawpaw next worked on Jane Campion's television miniseries Top of the Lake, which was filmed in New Zealand and broadcast in 2013. That year he won a Creative Arts Emmy Award for Outstanding Cinematography for a Miniseries or Movie. In 2014 he won his second Emmy Award, for Outstanding Cinematography for a Single-Camera Series, in recognition of his work on the HBO television series True Detective. True Detective was filmed in Louisiana and Arkapaw's cinematography received wide praise, especially for a six-minute single-take long take that was planned over months and took one and a half days to film.

Arkapaw was the cinematographer of the 2015 film Macbeth, directed by Justin Kurzel, with whom Arkapaw previously worked on Snowtown. He also photographed McFarland, USA, an American sports film released in 2015, and the drama film The Light Between Oceans. He collaborated with Kurzel for a third time on the action-adventure film Assassin's Creed, which was released in the United States in December 2016.

Personal life
He is married to American cinematographer Autumn Durald; the couple has one son, Aedan.

"Intricate detail"
Melcous I don't believe it's helpful to post a "too much detail" tag in the middle of the article the way you did. It's especially odd that in an article that contains relatively arcane sporting info from decades ago and bits of information about physical construction of the premises, you post the tag about recent events relating to public issues. I assume your tag is related to the "Build a Wall" disgrace at the Danbury game because you edited out supporting detail. (I note here that I had nothing to do with adding that section, but I see nothing wrong with it that good faith editing couldn't fix.) Since all Wiki policies are designed to work by consensus, wouldn't it have been better to raise the issue that concerns you in "Talk" rather than advertising your personal view in the article? Failing that, why didn't you just edit out the parts you sought were excessive? You had no qualms about doing some of it. You failure to raise the issue before both deleting matter and then posting the tag suggests to me that there is some POV issue you have, which also violates Wiki policy. Maybe I am wrong, but since you have not sought to discuss the issue, how is anyone to know? AnthroMimus (talk) 05:44, 4 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Thanks for posting this message. I don't have any WP:POV or WP:COI issues (I'm in Australia), just more an issue of not having time to figure some of the details out. I'd agree that there is other information on the page that is probably unnecessary too as well as the recent history stuff, although that seemed the most obvious to me as it feels like WP:RECENTISM in an encyclopedia article. I didn't "edit out supporting detail" - I removed an external link and a link to facebook because both are unacceptable under the linked guidelines and due to that, didn't require getting consensus to remove. Do you have specific suggestions as to how the article can be improved? Thanks Melcous (talk) 06:58, 4 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Actually, looking at it again now, I didn't remove the use of Facebook as a reference, I just removed it as an external link. Not sure it should stay there - if there is another, better source, that might also help indicate if the events have longer-lasting notability or if they should be removed. Cheers, Melcous (talk) 07:00, 4 December 2016 (UTC)

Excess editing
Melcous: You changed "country" to "United States" so that people around the world would know what country a high school in Connecticut was located in (as you helpfully point out in you edit comment.)

Then you cross-referenced "United States," evidently for those who don't know what the United States is.

Here are some other terms you might want to cross reference to get edit totals up and to acquaint our friends in places who can't click on Connecticut when they are in doubt of the country:

U.S. News and World Report

New York Times

Westport, New Canaan, Norwalk, Redding, Weston

population

academic year

secondary school

junior high school / middle school

town

theatre

physical restraint

town meeting

land

minority

legislation

special needs

This is just a start. I am sure you will find many more when you put your mind to it. AnthroMimus (talk) 23:21, 18 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Wow, thanks for the sarcasm! I'm not sure why you would have a problem with my edit or seem to think it was done just to 'get edit totals up'. It's standard to include country names and links in all kinds of articles, and in fact WP:WPSCHOOLS/AG specifically says to include the country of a school in the lead section. And just because you or I might think it obvious, you shouldn't assume that every reader of wikipedia knows which country every state is in, even for the US. Cheers, Melcous (talk) 03:14, 19 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Wow, thanks for calling my effort to aid your good work sarcasm. I've seen how you like to paratroop into articles to enforce the latest WP:LITTLEPOLICY without reading the article or improving its substantive content, so I thought I would give you other opportunities. Especially since you believe that a Wikipedia reader looking at a small school in Connecticut might have no idea what country the school is in (that happens a lot, right?) and it was worth your time to help that hypothetical person out, I thought you might want to help that person know other potentially unfamiliar things, such as "town" (not everyone is from a country with an England-based system of municipal organization) or "town meeting" (I bet they don't have New England style town meetings in Australia). As for assuming you were interested in edit count, I apologize. I guess there are other reasons for buzzing articles solely for compliance with WP:MINORSTYLEPOINTS. Maybe to see what it feels like to be a bot? Cheers. AnthroMimus (talk) 21:50, 21 February 2017 (UTC)

Ultracold atom

In condensed matter physics, an ultracold atom is an atom with a temperature near absolute zero. At such temperatures, an atom's quantum-mechanical properties become important.

To reach such low temperatures, a combination of several techniques typically has to be used. First, atoms are trapped and pre-cooled via laser cooling in a magneto-optical trap. To reach the lowest possible temperature, further cooling is performed using evaporative cooling in a magnetic or optical trap. Several Nobel prizes in physics are related to the development of the techniques to manipulate quantum properties of individual atoms (e.g. 1989, 1996, 1997, 2001, 2005, 2012, 2018).

Experiments with ultracold atoms study a variety of phenomena, including quantum phase transitions, Bose–Einstein condensation (BEC), bosonic superfluidity, quantum magnetism, many-body spin dynamics, Efimov states, Bardeen–Cooper–Schrieffer (BCS) superfluidity and the BEC–BCS crossover. Some of these research directions utilize ultracold atom systems as quantum simulators to study the physics of other systems, including the unitary Fermi gas and the Ising and Hubbard models. Ultracold atoms could also be used for realization of quantum computers.

History
Samples of ultracold atoms are typically prepared through the interactions of a dilute gas with a laser field. Evidence for radiation pressure, force due to light on atoms, was demonstrated independently by Lebedev, and Nichols and Hull in 1901. In 1933, Otto Frisch demonstrated the deflection of individual sodium particles by light generated from a sodium lamp.

The invention of the laser spurred the development of additional techniques to manipulate atoms with light. Using laser light to cool atoms was first proposed in 1975 by taking advantage of the Doppler effect to make the radiation force on an atom dependent on its velocity, a technique known as Doppler cooling. Similar ideas were also proposed to cool samples of trapped ions. Applying Doppler cooling in three dimensions will slow atoms to velocities that are typically a few cm/s and produce what is known as an optical molasses.

Typically, the source of neutral atoms for these experiments were thermal ovens which produced atoms at temperatures of a few hundred kelvins. The atoms from these oven sources are moving at hundred of meters per second. One of the major technical challenges in Doppler cooling was increasing the amount of time an atom can interact with the laser light. This challenge was overcome by the introduction of a Zeeman Slower. A Zeeman Slower uses a spatially varying magnetic field to maintain the relative energy spacing of the atomic transitions involved in Doppler cooling. This increases the amount of time the atom spends interacting with the laser light. Experiments can also use metal dispensers, which are pure metal (typically alkali metals) rods that can emit when heated up (the vapor pressure is higher) with electrical current.

The development of the first magneto-optical trap (MOT) by Raab et al. in 1987 was an important step towards the creation of samples of ultracold atoms. Typical temperatures achieved with a MOT are tens to hundreds of microkelvins. In essence, a magneto optical trap confines atoms in space by applying a magnetic field so that lasers not only provide a velocity dependent force but also a spatially varying force. The 1997 Nobel prize in physics was awarded for development of methods to cool and trap atoms with laser light and was shared by Steven Chu, Claude Cohen-Tannoudji and William D. Phillips.

Evaporative cooling was used in experimental efforts to reach lower temperatures in an effort to discover a new state of matter predicted by Satyendra Nath Bose and Albert Einstein known as a Bose–Einstein condensate (BEC). In evaporative cooling, the hottest atoms in a sample are allowed to escape which reduces the average temperature of the sample. The Nobel Prize in 2001 was awarded to Eric A. Cornell, Wolfgang Ketterle and Carl E. Wieman for the achievement of Bose–Einstein condensate in dilute gases of alkali atoms, and for early fundamental studies of the properties of the condensates.

In recent years a variety of sub-Doppler cooling techniques, including polarization gradient cooling, gray molasses cooling, and Raman sideband cooling, have enabled the cooling and trapping of single atoms in optical tweezers. Experimental platforms leveraging ultracold neutral atoms in optical tweezers and optical lattices have become an increasingly popular setting for studying quantum computing, quantum simulation, and precision metrology. Atoms with closed cycling transitions, capable of scattering many photons with a low probability of decay into other states, are common choices of species for ultracold neutral atom experiments. The lowest-energy fine structure transitions in alkali atoms enable fluorescence imaging, while a combination of hyperfine and Zeeman sublevels can be used for implementing sub-Doppler cooling. Alkaline earth atoms have also gained popularity owing to narrow-linewidth cooling transitions and ultra-narrow optical clock transitions.

Applications
Ultracold atoms have a variety of applications owing to their unique quantum properties and the great experimental control available in such systems. For instance, ultracold atoms have been proposed as a platform for quantum computation and quantum simulation, accompanied by very active experimental research to achieve these goals.

Quantum simulation is of great interest in the context of condensed matter physics, where it may provide valuable insights into the properties of interacting quantum systems. The ultracold atoms are used to implement an analogue of the condensed matter system of interest, which can then be explored using the tools available in the particular implementation. Since these tools may differ greatly from those available in the actual condensed matter system, one can thus experimentally probe otherwise inaccessible quantities. Furthermore, ultracold atoms may even allow to create exotic states of matter, which cannot otherwise be observed in nature.

All atoms are identical, making ensembles of atoms ideal for universal timekeeping. In 1967, the SI definition of the second was changed to reference a hyperfine transition frequency in Cesium atoms. Atomic clocks based on alkaline earth atoms or alkaline earth like ions (such as Al$+$) have now been developed making use of narrow-line optical transitions. To achieve high numbers of non-interacting atoms, which assists in the precision of these clocks, neutral atoms can be trapped in optical lattices. On the other hand, ion traps permit long interrogation times.

Ultracold atoms are also used in experiments for precision measurements enabled by the low thermal noise and, in some cases, by exploiting quantum mechanics to exceed the standard quantum limit. In addition to potential technical applications, such precision measurements may serve as tests of our current understanding of physics.

Hello, I'm Lucy and I work for Dentsu Aegis Network. As I've noted on my profile page, I created an account to represent the company and propose changes to related articles. I'd like to start by sharing a draft article about Tim Andree for editors to review. Tim is an executive at Dentsu, and is notable for both his professional and basketball careers. His name is linked at Dentsu Aegis Network, 1983–84 Chicago Bulls season, and Chicago Bulls draft history. Will someone watching this page review the draft to make sure he meets criteria, then take it live? I'm confident he is eligible but prefer other editors to review first, given my conflict of interest. Thank you! LH Dentsu (talk) 09:02, 30 October 2019 (UTC)

WebCite

WebCite is an intermittently available archive site, originally designed to digitally preserve scientific and educationally important material on the web by taking snapshots of Internet contents as they existed at the time when a blogger or a scholar cited or quoted from it. The preservation service enabled verifiability of claims supported by the cited sources even when the original web pages are being revised, removed, or disappear for other reasons, an effect known as link rot.

As of June 2023, the site no longer accepts new archive requests; old archive snapshots can still be viewed.

The site is frequently offline with no explanation, and for lengthy periods of time. For example it was offline between October 29, 2021 and June 24, 2023 (1 year and 8 months) during which it reported "DB Connection failed". The site is owned and maintained by Gunther Eysenbach.

Service features
WebCite allowed for preservation of all types of web content, including HTML web pages, PDF files, style sheets, JavaScript and digital images. It also archived metadata about the collected resources such as access time, MIME type, and content length.

WebCite was a non-profit consortium supported by publishers and editors, and it could be used by individuals without charge. It was one of the first services to offer on-demand archiving of pages, a feature later adopted by many other archiving services, such as archive.today and the Wayback Machine. It did not do web page crawling.

History
Conceived in 1997 by Gunther Eysenbach, WebCite was publicly described the following year when an article on Internet quality control declared that such a service could also measure the citation impact of web pages. In the next year, a pilot service was set up at the address webcite.net. Although it seemed that the need for WebCite decreased when Google's short term copies of web pages began to be offered by Google Cache and the Internet Archive expanded their crawling (which started in 1996), WebCite was the only one allowing "on-demand" archiving by users. WebCite also offered interfaces to scholarly journals and publishers to automate the archiving of cited links. By 2008, over 200 journals had begun routinely using WebCite.

WebCite was formerly a member of the International Internet Preservation Consortium. In response a 2012 message on Twitter relating to WebCite's former membership of the consortium, Eysenbach commented that "WebCite has no funding, and IIPC charges €4000 per year in annual membership fees."

WebCite "feeds its content" to other digital preservation projects, including the Internet Archive. Lawrence Lessig, an American academic who writes extensively on copyright and technology, used WebCite in his amicus brief in the Supreme Court of the United States case of MGM Studios, Inc. v. Grokster, Ltd.

Sometime between July 9 and 17, 2019, WebCite stopped accepting new archiving requests. In a further outage, between about October 29, 2021 and June 24, 2023, no archived content was available, only the main page worked.

Fundraising
WebCite ran a fund-raising campaign using FundRazr from January 2013 with a target of $22,500, a sum which its operators stated was needed to maintain and modernize the service beyond the end of 2013. This includes relocating the service to Amazon EC2 cloud hosting and legal support. it remained undecided whether WebCite would continue as a non-profit or as a for-profit entity.

Business model
The term "WebCite" is a registered trademark. WebCite did not charge individual users, journal editors and publishers any fee to use their service. WebCite earned revenue from publishers who wanted to "have their publications analyzed and cited webreferences archived". Early support was from the University of Toronto.

Copyright issues
WebCite maintained the legal position that its archiving activities are allowed by the copyright doctrines of fair use and implied license. To support the fair use argument, WebCite noted that its archived copies are transformative, socially valuable for academic research, and not harmful to the market value of any copyrighted work. WebCite argued that caching and archiving web pages was not considered a copyright infringement when the archiver offers the copyright owner an opportunity to "opt-out" of the archive system, thus creating an implied license. To that end, WebCite would not archive in violation of Web site "do-not-cache" and "no-archive" metadata, as well as robot exclusion standards, the absence of which creates an "implied license" for web archive services to preserve the content.

In a similar case involving Google's web caching activities, on January 19, 2006, the United States District Court for the District of Nevada agreed with that argument in the case of Field v. Google (CV-S-04-0413-RCJ-LRL), holding that fair use and an "implied license" meant that Google's caching of Web pages did not constitute copyright violation. The "implied license" referred to general Internet standards.

DMCA requests
According to their policy, after receiving legitimate DMCA requests from the copyright holders, WebCite would remove saved pages from public access, as the archived pages are still under the safe harbor of being citations. The pages were removed to a "dark archive" and in cases of legal controversies or evidence requests, there was pay-per-view access of "$200 (up to 5 snapshots) plus $100 for each further 10 snapshots" to the copyrighted content.

After earning degrees in economics and civil engineering at the University of Wisconsin, Trombino spent seventeen years at the Wisconsin Department of Transportation, working his way up to Operations Director, Highway Division. In May 2011, he took over the director role at the Iowa Department of Transportation, a role he held until he unexpectedly resigned on November 28, 2016. In January 2017, he became president of McClure Engineering Company, a position he currently holds.

While director of the Iowa DOT in 2012, he announced a policy to deny driver licenses to Iowa residents who were part of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program. The policy was reversed several weeks later.

Administrator of the Federal Highway Administration
Trombino was nominated by President Donald Trump to become Administrator of the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). His nomination was sent to the United States Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works on September 11, 2017. His confirmation hearing took place on October 5, 2017. The United States Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works was scheduled to vote on his confirmation on October 18, 2017, but that vote was postponed indefinitely.
