Cantellated 5-cell

In four-dimensional geometry, a cantellated 5-cell is a convex uniform 4-polytope, being a cantellation (a 2nd order truncation, up to edge-planing) of the regular 5-cell.

Cantellated 5-cell
The cantellated 5-cell or small rhombated pentachoron is a uniform 4-polytope. It has 30 vertices, 90 edges, 80 faces, and 20 cells. The cells are 5 cuboctahedra, 5 octahedra, and 10 triangular prisms. Each vertex is surrounded by 2 cuboctahedra, 2 triangular prisms, and 1 octahedron; the vertex figure is a nonuniform triangular prism.

Alternate names

 * Cantellated pentachoron
 * Cantellated 4-simplex
 * (small) prismatodispentachoron
 * Rectified dispentachoron
 * Small rhombated pentachoron (Acronym: Srip) (Jonathan Bowers)

Configuration
Seen in a configuration matrix, all incidence counts between elements are shown. The diagonal f-vector numbers are derived through the Wythoff construction, dividing the full group order of a subgroup order by removing one mirror at a time.

Coordinates
The Cartesian coordinates of the vertices of the origin-centered cantellated 5-cell having edge length 2 are:

The vertices of the cantellated 5-cell can be most simply positioned in 5-space as permutations of:
 * (0,0,1,1,2)

This construction is from the positive orthant facet of the cantellated 5-orthoplex.

Related polytopes
The convex hull of two cantellated 5-cells in opposite positions is a nonuniform polychoron composed of 100 cells: three kinds of 70 octahedra (10 rectified tetrahedra, 20 triangular antiprisms, 40 triangular antipodiums), 30 tetrahedra (as tetragonal disphenoids), and 60 vertices. Its vertex figure is a shape topologically equivalent to a cube with a triangular prism attached to one of its square faces.

Vertex figure

Cantitruncated 5-cell
The cantitruncated 5-cell or great rhombated pentachoron is a uniform 4-polytope. It is composed of 60 vertices, 120 edges, 80 faces, and 20 cells. The cells are: 5 truncated octahedra, 10 triangular prisms, and 5 truncated tetrahedra. Each vertex is surrounded by 2 truncated octahedra, one triangular prism, and one truncated tetrahedron.

Configuration
Seen in a configuration matrix, all incidence counts between elements are shown. The diagonal f-vector numbers are derived through the Wythoff construction, dividing the full group order of a subgroup order by removing one mirror at a time.

Alternative names

 * Cantitruncated pentachoron
 * Cantitruncated 4-simplex
 * Great prismatodispentachoron
 * Truncated dispentachoron
 * Great rhombated pentachoron (Acronym: grip) (Jonathan Bowers)

Cartesian coordinates
The Cartesian coordinates of an origin-centered cantitruncated 5-cell having edge length 2 are:

These vertices can be more simply constructed on a hyperplane in 5-space, as the permutations of:
 * (0,0,1,2,3)

This construction is from the positive orthant facet of the cantitruncated 5-orthoplex.

Related polytopes
A double symmetry construction can be made by placing truncated tetrahedra on the truncated octahedra, resulting in a nonuniform polychoron with 10 truncated tetrahedra, 20 hexagonal prisms (as ditrigonal trapezoprisms), two kinds of 80 triangular prisms (20 with D3h symmetry and 60 C2v-symmetric wedges), and 30 tetrahedra (as tetragonal disphenoids). Its vertex figure is topologically equivalent to the octahedron.

Related 4-polytopes
These polytopes are art of a set of 9 Uniform 4-polytopes constructed from the [3,3,3] Coxeter group.

Talk:Beginner Japanese/Introduction to the Japanese Language

Quiz problems
The quiz answers need to be clarified.

''English is an SVO (Subject Verb Object) language. What kind of language is Japanese. (three letters)?'' - This will only accept SOV (not sov) and should also accept "Subject Object Verb" or "Subject-Object-Verb" or any case variations.

What is the japanese term for "vertical" writing? - Should accept a capitalized "Tategaki" unless specified lowercase only.

What is the name of the group of general-use characters set forth by the Ministry of Education should one know in order to be literate in Japanese? - This one provides problems... the answer is "jouyou kanji" but it can be written as "jōyō kanji" (which it is referred to as on this site). Clarification needs to be made on whether or not 'ō' or 'ou' should be used, or if both are acceptable. On pages that use one spelling over another, clarification should be added.

What are the names of the syllabaries that make up the writing form Kana? - This needs to support the answers "katakana, hiragana", "katakana hiragana", "hiragana katakana" or any case variation of those. What 10:38, 19 August 2008 (UTC)
 * ありがとうございました for your help. There was made this edit (basically adding info with the | symbol). Could you have a look, if all is ok now ? (didn't try) In case you want to create new quizes you can read more about how to create/edit quizes: Help:Quiz, Erkan Yilmaz uses the Chat (try) 17:02, 19 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks for making those changes. I'm not very familiar with wikis. :) what 01:16, 20 August 2008 (UTC)
 * I added some answer rules to the questions in the form of "(lowercase)" and what not to specify how it should be answered and added a few variations of answers (capitalizing a character, etc.) what 01:22, 20 August 2008 (UTC)
 * ありがとうございました, Erkan Yilmaz uses the Chat (try) 06:34, 20 August 2008 (UTC)

How would you write, "Cats eat mice" in japanese (use Rōmaji )? - This question needs a bit of work. First, saying 'use Rōmaji' isnt as specific as one might think, given that there are multiple forms of Japanese romanization. While it is true that the Hepburn romanization system is the most common form, it should be taken in to account that other forms exist. Either the question needs to have all common forms of romanization added as possible answers, or the specific form of romanization needs to be specified. (I highly suggest the second option, possibly with a link to the Wikipedia article.) Second, the verb for 'to eat' currently used in the answer (食う or sometimes 喰う) is rendered in hiragana as 'くう'. Any way you look at it, that is a long vowel (in this case a 'u'), and this needs to be in the answer. (It currently has it romanized as 'ku'.) Lastly, why is this particular verb being used? Admittedly, I only just finished a Japanese II course at my local community college, but even I am aware that this word can be a bit rude. (Jim Breen's WWWJDIC entry for this word has it tagged both as being primarily used by men and as vulgar.) At most, '食べる' should replace '食う'; at least, '食べる' should be added as one of the possible answers for the verb. Zarakinthish 10:34, 27 May 2009 (UTC) - Changed answer for number of Kanji from 1945 to the more recent new list number of 2136, this has already been changed in the textbook by someone else.DMcPhed 00:46, 27 June 2011 (UTC)

Trivia Questions
Should the quiz contain trivia questions? To me, learning the language consists of more than just memorizing hiragana, katakana or kanji and grammar. I mean questions more along the lines of the third question in the quiz. what 01:26, 20 August 2008 (UTC)
 * How about generating quizes for different levels ? Some for more advanced Japanese learners and so on. Or for different ages ? Then everyone can start where she thinks is best. For me for example, I believe - since I don't know so much about Japanese - I even would have problems with trivia questions and would have to search in the internet for help or peak into the quiz answers :-)
 * I'd say do it as you feel is best. Your time is important and we are thankful for anything you contribute to here. You don't need to do all above said: just what you like and someone else will do other things. Have fun in what you do.

Fourier analysis

Introduction
Fourier analysis is a method of analysing functions. These functions may be electrical signals (say, from an electronic circuit being tested), pure mathematical functions, or any kind of data being analysed on a computer. Regardless, if the function is single-valued, Fourier analysis can be used to produce an imperfect approximation.

The trigonometric form
Fourier analysis works by breaking down the function being considered into a Fourier Series. The Fourier Series, in simplest terms, is a summation of sine and cosine functions. Each of these trigonometric functions looks something like this:

$$a_n \cos(\omega_n t) + b_n \sin(\omega_n t)$$

The exponential form
Consider f(x) as real valued function $$f(x)=\sum_{n=-\infty}^{\infty} A_n e^{inx}$$

Celestia/Textures

Introduction
The appearance of any object we see is determined in large part by the light that reaches your eye from each point on the object's surface. It is affected by the characteristics of the light reflected from the surface, the coloration of the surface, and any intervening translucent media (such as an atmosphere). Celestia uses mathematical models to calculate these effects, manipulating data which describe the relevant characteristics of each light source, and each point on the surface of each illuminated object. In reality, that's an enormous amount of data, and for Celestia compromises must be made.

In many cases, Celestia uses images as "maps" to provide the needed information describing the characteristics of the object's surface. Each point on a map corresponds to a point on the surface. Celestia uses image files to determine how the corresponding point on the surface of the object should appear. This process is called texture mapping. If you see an analogy here with the kinds of maps you're familiar with from school, it's no coincidence. The term map is used here with something very close to its conventional meaning.

The term texture may seem a bit puzzling in this context. It comes from the original usage of the technique in early computer graphics. At that time, because of hardware limitations, only very small images could be used, and so they could cover only a very small part of the surface of an object. However, a single small image could be used repeatedly to cover a large area of an object, giving it a textured appearance. Celestia generally uses a single texture image to cover the entire surface of an object, some of which are the size of planets. Technology has come a long way!

Concepts
Since texture mapping relies on image data, we'll begin with a brief review of basic image concepts. A digital image is essentially a rectangular grid of cells, called pixels (short for "picture element"). Each pixel has a specific digital value. The pixel values are commonly used to represent colors, but can be used for any kind of information. The number of possible values which any pixel can have is called the "depth" of the image. The depth of an image is usually expressed as a number of bits. The more bits provided, the greater the precision of the data representation. The (spatial) resolution of an image is determined by the number of rows and columns of pixels it contains. The more rows and columns, the higher the resolution of the image. Unfortunately, the more rows and columns of pixels, and the more bits per pixel, the greater the amount of storage needed for the image. Image file formats often include compression techniques to reduce the storage requirements, but this can lead to a loss of information, resulting in reduced quality.

Artistic development of textures
Since textures actually are pictures, you can use your favorite paint program to create them. Often public domain photographs by NASA can be used as starting points for surface textures of imaginary planets.

Preserving quality
It's usually best to work at a resolution that's at least twice the resolution that you'll be providing in an Addon. When scaled down, the results look much better than if you'd been working at the final resolution. Also, be sure to save your intermediate results using an image format that preserves the detail. Do not use either DDS or JPEG formats for anything other than the final released product.

Texture File Formats
Celestia supports three image file formats for textures: PNG, JPEG and DDS. Because of their differing characteristics, the different file formats are more suitable for some applications than others.

PNG
PNG, short for Portable Network Graphics, is a lossless compression format, i.e. it reproduces the original image without change. PNG images can contain an 8-bit alpha layer, which is used to determine where the image is transparent (think of a cloud-layer). Because it offers perfect quality and alpha layer, PNG can be used for all purposes in Celestia. However it typically has the biggest filesizes and may be a bad choice for textures offered for download. PNG is supported by all but the oldest image manipulation programs.

JPEG
JPEG (initials of Joint Photographic Experts Group, often shortened to JPG) is designed for a good visual appearance and a high compression ratio. It introduces small differences compared to the original image, but this is rarely visible when using default or better quality when saving the JPEG image. The JPEG format is well suited for surface textures, especially when the filesize has to be kept small, as for downloads. JPEG is supported by practically all image manipulation programs. Unfortunately, JPEG does not support an alpha channel, so it cannot be used for textures that require transparency.

DDS
DDS, short for Direct Draw Surface, supports several different specialized formats. Most relevant for Celestia are DXT1, DXT3 and DXT5. DDS is different from JPEG and PNG in several ways, as it's not a format typically used to store pictures. Instead it's designed to be used by 3D hardware, and is directly loaded into your graphics card. Very old graphic cards don't support DDS textures, so not everybody can use them. In some circumstances, DDS can have the worst quality of the supported image formats, considerably worse than JPEG with default compression. It also is not highly compressed, e.g. 1:6 for DXT1.

Why is it used then? Because the compression of DDS textures also works after the image was loaded. Let's take a 2048x1024 image as an example. When stored as PNG or JPEG, an image may take little space on the harddisk (200 kB for JPEG, 1-2 MB for PNG), but once loaded into memory, it would expand to width*height*3 Bytes = 6MB. A DDS image will take only 1/6th of this, on disk as well as in memory. So you can use more or higher-resolution textures without hurting performance. Furthermore, DDS images don't have to be decompressed by the CPU, so loading is considerably faster too. This is very important when approaching planets which haven't had their textures loaded yet, and for Virtual Textures.

Because of their relatively low quality and the kind of artifacts the compression causes, DDS textures are generally unsuited for Normalmaps. Nevertheless, a specialized NormalMap format has been defined by Nvidia which uses a special DXT5 encoding. Celestia calls this format DXT5nm.

A DDS file usually includes several texture images, called "mipmaps". They are progressively lower-resolution versions of the primary image, automatically created by the software used to create DDS file. The graphics hardware chooses the mipmap that best fits the size of the object on the screen, minimizing the number of pixels that have to be rescaled and thus improving the graphics frame-rate.

(additional details of the DXT formats is needed here)

Celestia Texture Map Types
The following are some of the different types of texture maps used by Celestia:

Surface Texture Maps
A Texture is like a photograph of the surface, looking much like a conventional map of the world. If the image file used as surface texture contains an Alpha layer (usually used to indicate transparency), this layer is used by Celestia as the object's specular texture map.

Specular Texture Maps
A JPG, PNG or DDS SpecularTexture controls which parts of a planetary surface seem to be shiny and which do not by causing a bright highlight to be drawn. In the texture image, white indicates areas which will display a highlight. Black indicates areas with no highlights. It can be very effective in showing a watery surface on an Oceanic planet.

When using a SpecularTexture, both SpecularColor and SpecularPower must also be specified. See the chapter on SSC Catalog files for more information.

Specular reflection highlights are visible only in Celestia's OpenGL Vertex Program and OpenGL 2.0 render paths. The graphics hardware must support OpenGL v1.4 or better.

Normal Texture Maps
A NormalMap is not "normal" in the sense of being a conventional map. Rather, it defines surface normal vectors: it contains information about the slope of the surface at each point in the texture image. This makes it possible for Celestia to draw shadows on what actually is a smooth surface, making it look like it contains bumps and creases due to mountains and valleys. This usually is much easier than actually molding craters and mountains into the model.

Shadows drawn by NormalMaps are visible only in Celestia's OpenGL Vertex Program and OpenGL 2.0 render paths.

Tools for creating these normal maps are available on the Celestial Matters Website.

Bump Maps
A BumpMap is an alternative to a NormalMap. It specifies the relative heights of positions on the surface of an object. A pixel corresponding to a position which has the highest altitude is colored white, while the lowest is black. BumpMaps often are created from heightmaps. Internally, Celestia translates BumpMaps into NormalMaps.

When a BumpMap is used, BumpHeight must also be specified.

Shadows drawn by BumpMaps are visible only in Celestia's OpenGL Vertex Program and OpenGL 2.0 render paths.

Also keep in mind that a black & white copy of a texture is NOT a bump map and should not be used as one. Bump maps contain height or altitude data, while a texture is a "photo" with shadows caused by the sun.

For more information, see:
 * http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bumpmap
 * http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normal_mapping

Cloud Layer Texture Maps
A CloudMap is a transparent, or semi-transparent image drawn above the surface Texture, used to render clouds. A Cloudmap must be in either png or dds (dtx3 or dxt5) format with an Alpha channel to provide its transparency. In an SSC catalog file (the properties declaration for the object), one can define the cloud´s height above ground, and the speed at which the clouds move relative to the Surface Texture.

If the CloudMap is a Virtual Texture, CloudSpeed must be 0, or the image will appear to be broken.

Cloud Layer Normal Maps
This feature requires Celestia v1.5.0 or later.

A CloudNormalMap adds shadows to the surface of a cloud image, making it appear to be bumpy.

Night Light Texture Maps
A NightTexture shows what the nightside of an object looks like, with lighted areas caused by cities, erupting volcanoes, forest fires, etc. It should include an Alpha channel to allow the surface Texture map to be seen through the NightTexture, but that isn't required.

Texture resolution
The (spatial) resolution of a texture image is determined by the number of rows and columns of pixels it contains. The more rows and column, the higher the resolution of the image. Most importantly, the higher the resolution of the texture, the more detail it contains, and the closer the distance you can view it from. If you view a texture too closely, it will appear blurry because it does not contain sufficient detail. The higher the resolution of the texture, the closer you can get with a clear view, and the more detail you can see. If a texture is mapped to a planet's surface, the size of the planet together with the resolution of the texture determines how close you can view the planet from with a satisfactory view. A larger planet will require a higher-resolution image to provide comparable detail at the same viewing distance.

As many as three images with identical names but different resolutions can be used for textures if they're put into the subdirectories textures/lores, textures/medres and textures/hires. The keyboard commands "r" and "R" can then be used to select among them.

It is common to refer to the texture resolution as 1k, 2k, 4k, 8k et cetera.

What this means is:

- a 1k texture has a width of 1024 pixels and a height of 512 pixels

- a 2k texture is 2048 x 1024 pixels

- a 4k texture is 4096 x 2048 pixels

... And so on.

Any texture used in Celestia must be a power of two on each side, like the dimensions shown in the above example. This restriction is lifted in Celestia v1.5.0, but works best with graphics cards which support "non-power-of-two" texture sizes. Celestia will shrink textures to fit into cards that don't have that feature, possibly damaging the image significantly.

When a texture becomes very large, it can be advantageous to cut it up into smaller parts, thus creating a Virtual Texture - this economizes on the memory Celestia needs to draw it.

Virtual Textures
A virtual texture is a special texture format used by Celestia to handle very large textures. It is made up of many little textures showing the small details on planets, moons etc.

There are different levels to a virtual texture. The levels are numbered 0 to 10 (12 for v1.4.0 and later). Level 10 is for very fine details and Level 0 is pretty much a global view showing all the major features of Celestia's worlds. Level 0 is made up of 2 images, Level 10 can be made up of thousands of close-up images showing great detail.

A ctx file defines the virtual texture and its filename is used when referring to the virtual texture in ssc files.

For the details of creating a Virtual Texture, see the documentation on the Celestia MotherLode.

Japanese/Grammar/～ている

The ～ている form has several uses.
 * Progressive
 * Completed actions
 * Stative
 * Habitual
 * Incomplete actions

Conjugation
While Japanese grammar doesn't always correspond to what we know from English, they both use auxiliary verbs in many circumstances.

Continuous tenses in English use the auxiliary verbs am, are, is, was and were.

The Japanese language has a similar auxiliary verb いる with the ～て form of the verb.

Continuous actions
When speaking of continuous actions that occur in the present or occurred in the past, the form has the same meaning as the English continuous tense.

Incomplete tasks
When いる is used in the present-negative conjugation, it conveys a sense of action not taken.

Habitual
This form may also be used to describe a habitual activity.

Stative vs Non-stative verbs
Much like English, there are verbs that describe a state of the subject, rather than an action. These type of verbs are called stative verbs. You may want to think of these as actions that started in the past, arrived to a state, and this state persists to the present.

くる, いく, and かえる
When the verbs くる, いく, and かえる are used in the ～て in conjunction with the auxiliary verb いる, they are translated as has come, has gone, and has returned, respectively.

Exceptions
There are some irregular cases with this form.

 * 1) You can use the word 知っています, but not 知っていません.  Instead, you'll use the negative form of masu - 知りません.
 * 2) You also can't use ある, いる, and 要る in the ～ている form at all.  The same can be said with potential forms of verbs (e.g., 話せる).

Colloquial Variations
When speaking at a high speed, sometimes syllables are dropped from words to make them easier to say. Colloquial variations of the continuous forms exist and are recognized in the Japanese language. While they are not used in proper writing, these forms are used in every day conversation, especially among friends and family.

All the sentences mean "I am riding the train." Notice that the two sentences on the right have simply dropped the い　from いる／います. By dropping the い, the sentence becomes easier to say quickly. This is a standard colloquial form of the continuous tense, and it works with the non-past continuous and the past continuous. The above example is the present continuous, so let's see an example of the past continuous:

Once again, the い was dropped, which forms the colloquial variation. Just remember to use the standard form when writing, but when speaking, the colloquial version will be OK when speaking among friends. However, when speaking to someone of higher status, you may wish to use the standard polite form.

Talk:vinen

Vinen an adjective?
Though Czech native, I am now unsure whether vinen and its opposite nevinen indeed are adjectives. I can predicate of a man that he is nevinen, in a sentence Ten muž je nevinen, but I cannot place the adjective at the left, like Nevinen muž plakal; instead, I need to say Nevinný muž plakal. Hopefully, someone will help to clarify this. --Daniel Polansky 12:52, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Iran at the 1976 Summer Olympics

Olymic debut.
"It was the eighth appearance of the Asian nation, which made its Olymic debut in 1948." Two other articles state that Iran made its debut at the Paris 1900 Games. I'm fixing this article accordingly. Feel free to revert if it's the other two articles which are in error (but that seems unlikely, given that one of them names the Iranian athlete who competed). Aridd 21:45, 21 March 2006 (UTC)

Referencing.
The reason I'm adding notes to the shooting section is because not noting that one of the competitors only took part in 5 rounds, distorts the picture of total points for those who took part in all 8 rounds.

Bobby Marchan

Bobby Marchan (born Oscar James Gibson, April 30, 1930 – December 5, 1999) was an American rhythm and blues singer, songwriter, recording artist, bandleader, MC, and female impersonator. He was the key singer in the early lineup of Huey "Piano" Smith and His Clowns along with Gerri Hall and Roosevelt Wright.

Biography
Born in Youngstown, Ohio, Marchan started as a female impersonator in his teens, and formed a drag troupe, the Powder Box Revue. He began performing in New Orleans nightclubs, specifically the Dew Drop Inn and the Club Tijuana in the mid-1950s. He made his first recording, "Have Mercy", produced by Cosimo Matassa for Aladdin Records, in 1954. He then recorded for the Dot and Ace labels, with Ace boss Johnny Vincent apparently offering him a contract under the misapprehension that Marchan was female and releasing his record "Give a Helping Hand" under the pseudonym Bobby Fields.

From 1957, Marchan also toured with the Clowns, the band led by Huey "Piano" Smith, sometimes performing as lead singer and bandleader in place of Smith, who reputedly would stay in New Orleans to write and record while his band played clubs and toured. The touring band included James Booker on piano. Marchan also recorded with the band, singing on Huey Smith and the Clowns' hit records, but only after Rockin' Pneumonia and the Boogie Woogie Flu was recorded. Don't You Just Know It amongst others during this time had Marchan singing on them.

In 1959, he left the Clowns and resumed his solo career, on Bobby Robinson's Fire record label. He had a number one hit on the national R&B chart in 1960 with There's Something on Your Mind, a cover of a song written and first performed by Big Jay McNeely, but with Marchan adding lengthy spoken word passages. His follow-ups on Fire, however, were less commercially successful, and in 1963 he signed for Stax Records, where he was assigned to their subsidiary label Volt, on the recommendation of Otis Redding. Two singles were released including a cover of Donnie Elbert's What Can I Do before he soon moved on to the Dial label, where in 1965 he recorded his own song Get Down With It. The song was covered by Little Richard, and then reworked in 1971 by British glam rock band Slade as "Get Down and Get with It", giving the band their first chart hit.

After moving to Cameo-Parkway Records he had some success with There's Something About You, Baby, and then his second solo R&B chart hit in 1966 with Shake Your Tambourine. However, later records on various labels, including Ace, were unsuccessful, and by the early 1970s Marchan had returned to club work in New Orleans as a female impersonator and MC. He regularly performed at the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival. His final studio based work was in 1987 when he released a reworking of his biggest hit There Is Something On Your Mind on Al Bell's Edge label.

He also set up his own production company, Manicure Productions, in the 1980s. In the 1990s his company Manicure was involved in hip hop music booking and promotion including Take Fo' Records bounce music artist DJ Jubilee. Marchan was also involved with the formation of Cash Money Records.

Marchan died from liver cancer in Gretna, Louisiana on December 5, 1999, aged 69.

William Rockhill Nelson

William Rockhill Nelson (March 7, 1841 – April 13, 1915) was an American real estate developer, journalist, editor and co-founder of The Kansas City Star in Kansas City, Missouri. He donated his estate (and home) for the establishment of the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art. Nelson was honored, for a time, as one of the most progressive city editors in the country. He crusaded for community improvement while retaining conservative, small-town values.

Upon his death, A. S. Ochs, publisher of the New York Times, said, “Journalism has lost one of its best examples of the right kind of independence, courage, ability, and enterprise.”

He is buried at Mt. Washington Cemetery in Independence, Missouri, with his wife, daughter and son-in-law.

In early 2021, after a series investigating its own history of how it covered — and failed to cover — Black Kansas Citians, the Kansas City Star “stripped from its pages and website the name, words and image that recognized its first publisher and founder, William Rockhill Nelson.”

Early life
Nelson was born in Fort Wayne, Indiana. His father was publisher Isaac De Groff Nelson (1810–1891) and his mother was Elizabeth Rockhill (1816–1889), the daughter of William R. Rockhill, an important farmer and politician in Fort Wayne, Indiana. For a short time, Isaac Nelson owned The Sentinel newspaper (which became the Fort Wayne News Sentinel). But I.D.G. Nelson, as he was fondly known for many years in Fort Wayne, was much more renowned as a nursery owner. His own estate, "Elm Park", was considered "the showplace of Allen County."

Nelson, as a 15-year-old attended the University of Notre Dame (which accepted high school students) at the time for two years which he described as "Botany Bay for bad boys." Notre Dame was reported to have asked that he not return.

Nelson was admitted to the bar in 1862 and was a campaign manager for Democratic presidential nominee Samuel J. Tilden. Tilden told him: "While it is a great thing to lead armies, it is a greater thing to lead the minds of men."

Nelson “expressed compassion toward the South.” He and his father opposed Abraham Lincoln in the elections of 1860 and 1864.

Nelson attempted to run a store in Savannah, Georgia but it failed. The southern sojourn was to earn him the nickname "The Colonel" even though he never served in the military. William Allen White said later: "Not that he was ever a colonel of anything...He was just coloneliferous."

Newspapers
Nelson formally took over the Sentinel with Samuel Morss in 1879. In 1880 they moved to Kansas City and started the Star. At the time there were three daily competitors – the Evening Mail; The Kansas City Times; and the Kansas City Journal. Nelson took over sole ownership of the paper within a few months.

Nelson's business strategy called for cheap advance subscriptions and an intention to be "absolutely independent in politics, aiming to deal by all men and all parties with impartiality and fearlessness."

He purchased the Kansas City Evening Mail and its Associated Press franchise in 1882 and started the Weekly Kansas City Star in 1890 and the Sunday Kansas City Star in 1894. Nelson bought the Times in 1901, putting The Morning Kansas City Star on it.

Nelson had portraits of Tilden, Grover Cleveland, and Theodore Roosevelt in his office. Roosevelt stayed with Nelson at Oak Hall.

In one encounter, Kansas City Mayor Joseph J. Davenport was thrown down a stairwell at the Star building by editors (including William Allen White) when he was believed to have physically threatened Nelson. Nelson said afterwards, "The Star never loses!"

Nelson was “a rich man willing to attack the rich, especially if they were slumlords thwarting his dreams for a beautiful Kansas City,” according to William Allen White, the future newspaper editor and Progressive leader who worked for The Star beginning in 1891.

In 1908, The Star stopped advertising liquor for fear it was “encouraging readers to endanger their health and happiness.” Its last alcohol-related advertisement for 40 years was for Good Ole Guckenheimer Rye, whose flavor is “surpassingly fine; its purity is never questioned.”

Nelson was a beloved boss and champion of the individual reporter. He offered his employees nearly a year’s sick pay, an eight-hour day, and reportedly invented the concept of the “open newsroom,” based upon the fact that closed doors meant time-consuming appointments would need to be scheduled, which interfered with the timely transfer of information.

He developed, however, countless reasons for not advancing wages in his printing plants.

Other interests
In addition to his newspaper duties, Nelson developed an area of farmland south of downtown Kansas City into a neighborhood of more than 100 houses, including his own mansion called Oak Hall. The area, which became known as the Rockhill District, was noted for its use of limestone in both the houses and in stone walls that stood beside the streets. Nelson also acquired more than 2400 acre in what is presently Grain Valley, Missouri, for the establishment of Sni-A-Bar Farm. The farm's mission was the development of improved breeding methods and livestock. It served as one of the world's leaders in animal health for more than 30 years.

He campaigned for Kansas City's George Kessler-designed park and boulevard system and the 1900 “Kansas City Spirit” to build Convention Hall in 90 days in order to host the 1900 Democratic National Convention after the original (and new) convention hall had burned in April 1900.

Death
In February 1915, Nelson took ill with “a stoppage of the liver which interfered with nutrition and with the elimination of toxins.” A few weeks later, on March 5, he developed “uremic poisoning.” He underwent treatment at home. He lost consciousness for five days before he died at home, at two a.m., on April 13, 1915. His last words were reportedly, “I’m not afraid to die. The next time let me go. It is no kindness to keep me alive.” He was 74.

Legacy
Nelson provided in his will that following the death of his wife and daughter his Oak Hill mansion be torn down and its 30 acre estate turned into an art museum. Proceeds from his $6 million estate were used to build the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art in Kansas City. That estate would be worth at least $194 million in real price in 2023.

Nelson’s will also established a trust for Sni-A-Bar Farm, with Presidents from the University of Missouri, the University of Kansas, and the University of Oklahoma charged with selecting its trustees.

The Art Gallery originally contained a recreation of Nelson's oak paneled room from Oak Hall (and namesake of the estate). The room contained Nelson's red plush easy chair and bookcases. The room was dismantled in 1988 to make way for a photography studio. His memorial is located in a mausoleum located at Mount Washington Cemetery in Independence, Missouri, between Truman Road and US Route 24.

Nelson was an early advocate of focusing investigative reporting in The Kansas City Star and his other publications on local municipal corruption rather than simply printing the exposés of nationally famed muckrakers. Among the many causes Nelson championed was the Progressive movement's philosophy of driving money out of both the voting booth and the courthouse, of providing free justice, and of providing minimum-wage standards. He pushed for the municipal proprietorship of public utilities, bringing running water into farm women’s kitchens and establishing parks and boulevards to enrich the urban environment.

Upon hearing of his death, President Theodore Roosevelt wrote: “There was no more useful or more patriotic citizen in the United States. No man who better exemplified how to be the highest type of public servant; although in private life, he was one of the staunchest and most loyal friends that ever lived. I mourn him as a friend. I mourn him still more deeply as an American citizen."

President Woodrow Wilson wrote that Mr. Nelson had "left a deep and abiding mark upon the annals of his profession.” President William Taft referred to him as “a man of most exceptional ability, great power, and the widest influence, which he exercised with undaunted courage for the right as he saw it.”

At the same time, Nelson's legacy is complicated, if not considered deeply flawed by some. His relationship with the younger developer J. C. Nichols ensured the imposition of racially restrictive covenants that excluded Blacks and Jews from living in certain neighborhoods or owning property there, not just at the time, but "into the limitless future." One such neighborhood is the Country Club District near The Plaza.

The Star did not report on, or feature news or the life of Black communities in Kansas City for most of the 20th century, which “disenfranchised, ignored and scorned generations of Black Kansas Citians.” This negatively and irrevocably played a contributing role in race relations and standards of living for Black people and others across the Kansas City metropolitan region and indeed the Midwest.

In 2020, the newspaper apologized and ran a six-part series about its generational racism and consequently “stripped from its pages and website the name, words and image that recognized its first publisher and founder.”The series was part of a movement of reckoning within the media and newspaper industry for its historic and continuing racism in the wake of the protests after the death of George Floyd.

In 2021, The Kansas City Star President and Editor Mike Fannin said William Rockhill Nelson’s slogan, ‘A Paper for the People,’ was “lofty but ultimately dishonest.”

“The Star was not ‘A Paper for the People’ through much of its history,” Fannin said. “It was a paper for only some people, namely white people. Those values don’t square at all with The Star newsroom of today.”

Jersey Devils

The Jersey Devils were an American professional ice hockey team based in Cherry Hill, New Jersey.

The Devils were formed when the Philadelphia Ramblers, a member of the Eastern Hockey League, relocated to Cherry Hill at the end of the 1963–64 season. The Devils played in the Cherry Hill Arena until 1973, when the team folded along with the Eastern Hockey League (EHL).

The Devils had several notable players and also won the highest scoring game in EHL history, a 16–15 win over the Syracuse Blazers on February 24, 1968, at the Cherry Hill Arena before 4,583 fans. The EHL split into two fairly short-lived leagues. The Northern teams became the North American Hockey League, while the Southern teams became the Southern Hockey League, however the Devils, who had been the southernmost franchise in the Northern Division of the EHL, did not join either.

Notable players, coaches and owners

 * Bobby Taylor, who was later a backup goaltender for the Philadelphia Flyers under Bernie Parent. He later became a color commentator on radio and television hockey broadcasts for the Flyers (1976–1992) and then the Tampa Bay Lightning (1993–2015).
 * Dick Sarrazin, who later played for the Philadelphia Flyers and two WHA teams in the late 1960s and early 1970s.
 * Marcel Pelletier, a former NHL goaltender, who ended his twenty-year career as a player/coach with the Devils in 1969.
 * Rosaire Paiement played the 1966–67 season, scoring 125 points. He later played for the Philadelphia Flyers and Vancouver Canucks in the NHL and for several WHA teams.
 * Vic Stasiuk, the Philadelphia Flyers second head coach was head coach of the Devils for two seasons, 1966–68.
 * Gary Gresdal, who led the EHL in penalties in 1971–72 with 392 minutes. He played briefly for the Quebec Nordiques in the WHA.
 * Larry Pleau, 1968–69 North Division Rookie of the Year who later played several seasons with the Montreal Canadiens. He also appeared for the United States Olympic hockey team in 1968 and the New England Whalers in the WHA before working as their coach and in the front office of the Saint Louis Blues for 13 years.
 * Jamie Kennedy, 1970–71 North Division First Team All-Star Center who played briefly for the New York Raiders in the World Hockey Association. He is also a member of the Prince Edward Island Hall of Fame.
 * John Brophy, all time EHL career leader in penalty minutes (3822), who played his final season as a Devil in 1972–73. He later coached for one season (1978–79) for Birmingham Bulls of the WHA and three (1986–89) with the Toronto Maple Leafs.
 * Jerome Burg, Owner and President of the Jersey Devils during the final years from 1971–73. He later moved to Arizona where he became a radio personality.

Talk:SSE2

Therefore only x86 processors can include SSE2
This phrase is wrong as SSE2 is for instance supported on later Intel Itanium processors which are definatly not x86 or x86-64 architecture. — Preceding unsigned comment added by <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 18:05, 1 March 2015 (UTC)

 * I do not believe Itanium processors had SSE2 instructions sets. Searching through Intel's product specification website, Itanium-series processors are not shown to have any SSE instruction set extensions. Instead, IA-64 architectures had 2 SIMD registers to allow parallel computations, but they were not SSEx registers. Bansalsi1 (talk) 01:19, 23 April 2024 (UTC)

Untitled
It may be useful to maintain a list of software packages that require SSE2 until many of the processors listed that do not support it become less common.

- Adobe Premiere Pro 2.0 - Adobe Encore DVD 2.0

Can we get a reference to a page that actually lists and defines the SSE2 instructions?

Differences between x87 FPU and SSE2: Example code
Why is the example coded in Fortran? Seriously. Setting aside the issues of Fortran's datedness as a programming language, or relevance to modern instruction-set extensions, I think it's a valid concern that Fortran is no longer a widely known language among modern programmers. I would suggest C, Java, or any form of BASIC in its place. <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 13:45, 13 February 2009 (UTC)

Simplicity of the language (similarity to Basic, Matlab, Octave, Scilab) compared to C/Java/C++? Compiler that can target x87 & SSE2? (compared to Basic)? Expectation that most programmers who care about numerical issues will have been exposed to Fortran? Bendel boy (talk) 08:11, 8 October 2009 (UTC)

What exactly is this example supposed to show? That for SSE -(a/b) == (-a)/b but not for 387? One could get the impression that SSE calculates more exactly, which certainly is not the case. The difference is that it does exactly the same rounding when calculating y and z, so naturally their difference is “exactly” zero. --<IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 14:16, 7 March 2011 (UTC)

number of SSE2 registers
All the newer SIMD articles seem to miss the exact number of xmm registers. SSE1 seems to have had 8, but in the literature people often see xmm8..15. It is not clear from these articles which extension upped the register count. (I suspect SSE2 since it established SSE as a standalone execution unit, which is why I post this comment here).

According to the Wikipedia article on Sexagesimal, it was the ancient Sumerians who first invented it, not the Greeks. Is this correct? Gotsomeideas (talk) 21:17, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

James.Spudemann made a HUGE edit where he changed the nature of the introduction. An introduction should, I think, promote eagerness in the reader to learn the subject, but I don't think the new introduction does that. I'll change the introduction with this in mind. <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 10:19, 31 July 2010 (UTC)

I agree that was a hugely significant edit. It lost some important content and changed the book's tone. I feel that for someone wanting to learn trigonometry the original introduction, before James.Spademann's historical notes, was way better. This is in fact a general problem with how the book is shaping up. It's becoming less suitable for someone learning how to do trigonometry. I am adding back the lost material and making the historical background something readers are more likely to skip over on a first reading. JamesCrook (talk) 12:31, 12 October 2010 (UTC)

His voice?
Considering he's an actor, would it be appropriate to include some explanation for why his voice seems so impaired? Is it from vocal abuse,or an injury of some kind? Or has it always been that way? Don't get me wrong,I think he's a terrific actor—but I'm very curious to know how he overcame such odds. Until he was well known, wouldn't it have been hard to convince people to give him roles? – AndyFielding (talk) 10:35, 24 June 2022 (UTC)

Peter Powell (DJ)

Peter James Barnard-Powell (born 24 March 1951) is an English former disc jockey, popular on BBC Radio 1 in the late 1970s and 1980s, as well as a television presenter for the BBC music chart programme Top of the Pops. He has also had a second career in talent management.

Early career
Powell was educated at Uppingham School, a boys' independent school in Rutland in the English Midlands. Powell began his broadcasting career as the first voice on air when BBC Radio Birmingham launched in 1970, and then had a brief spell on BBC Radio 1 in 1972.

He then went to Radio Luxembourg before rejoining Radio 1 in 1977. Almost immediately after his arrival at the station he made his debut as a Top of the Pops presenter, joining Radio 1 colleagues on the roster.

BBC Radio 1 career
Powell began as a weekend presenter on the station, presenting a Sunday show from 10am to 1pm, before a move to Saturdays in October 1978, again from 10am to 1pm.

In 1980 he took over the weekday afternoon show running from 3:30 to 5:30pm, before taking over the weekday teatime slot in 1981 from 5 to 7pm. The show went out from 4:30 to 7pm in 1982.

His best remembered features are 5 45s at 5.45, where Powell played five new singles, and the Record Race, in which listeners had to identify songs purely from their intros. Every Tuesday he ran through the new singles chart which had been revealed by the British Market Research Bureau (BMRB) earlier at lunchtime on BBC Radio 1 presented by Gary Davies - the first chance many young listeners got to hear the new Top 40. He also featured the album chart on Wednesday evenings.

Pete Tong – now one of Radio 1's longest-serving DJs - made his first appearance on the network on Powell's show in the early 1980s, presenting a dance music feature. Powell was an early champion of a number of successful mainstream 1980s acts, including Spandau Ballet, Culture Club and Duran Duran as well as Australian new wave band The Church. He compered Duran Duran's charity concert at Villa Park 1983 as well as the Birmingham Heart Beat Charity Concert 1986 three years later, which featured George Harrison.

From 29 September 1984 until his departure from the station on 25 September 1988 Powell presented the weekend breakfast show from 8 to 10am. Throughout his 11-year stay at Radio 1 he became strongly associated with the Radio 1 Roadshow, which he presented each summer, and other outside broadcasts. He was also known for hosting the TV coverage of the annual Montreux Rock Festival, BBC2's Oxford Road Show and for his high-profile working relationship with fellow Radio 1 DJ Janice Long between October 1984 and July 1985.

Management
Since leaving radio he has concentrated on building his management company (James Grant Media Group) with his business partner Russ Lindsay and other financial activities, which have proved successful.

Personal life
Powell was married to Anthea Turner from 1990 to 1998.

Nelko Kolarov

Nelko Kolarov (Нелко Коларов) (born July 19, 1959) is a Bulgarian composer, conductor and musician. Outside Bulgaria, Kolarov is perhaps best known for his collaborations with Nikolo Kotzev and his solo album Day of wrath.

Biography
Kolarov was born in Varna. From 1981 until 1985 he was a member of the popular Bulgarian rock band Impuls, where he first got experience in writing and arranging songs.

During this period, he also studied at the Bulgarian State Conservatory in Sofia, from which he graduated in 1985 with a major in orchestra conducting. After graduation he became the conductor of the Varna Philharmonic Orchestra. Kolarov has also conducted various performances for the Varna National Opera, such as Giacomo Puccini's  Gianni Schicchi, Manuel De Falla's El Amor brujo and The Wizard of Oz.

Nelko Kolarov focused primarily on composing musicals during 1989 - 1991, composing music for such musicals as The most wonderful wonder, Romantic people and Hey Poltergeist, say, all of which were performed at the Variete theater in Gabrovo.

During 1996 and 1997, several songs composed by Nelko received prizes in various pop contests and festivals throughout Bulgaria.

In 1999, Kolarov conducted The Sofia Strings for Nikolo Kotzev's rock opera Nostradamus, which was released in 2001. The rock opera also featured Glenn Hughes, Joe Lynn Turner and band members of Europe, among others.

Kolarov's first solo album, Day of wrath (Ден на гнева in Bulgarian), was also released in 2001, though it had primarily been recorded in 1998 and 1999 at the studio Metzoforte in Varna and at a studio of Chocho Vladovski. The album also features songs previously written for the musical Hey Poltergeist, say, such as Beyond boundary, I am guilty, Smile! and Sinful people.

Kolarov spends most of his time in his own studio in Varna, while also performing live at the piano bar Royal Classic together with Asen Georgiev and other Bulgarian artists as special guests.

Jenna- Wage Discrimination

Wage discrimination is seen widely throughout industries and regions. Wage discrimination is when an employer pays different wages to two seemingly similar employees, usually on the basis of gender or race. Kampelmann and Rycx (2016) offer different explanations on the differentiations between wage gaps and productivity gaps. The first explanation they discuss is due to employer beliefs on the limited credentials an immigrant or migrant worker has access to, the worker is then panelized because of the difficulties that this can bring into productivity (Kampelmann and Rycx, 2016). The second explanation they offer states that employer tastes and preferences on foreign workers and/or customers can translate to having a lower demand for them as a whole and offering them lower wages (Kampelmann and Rycx, 2016). The last, they explain as the differences in career dynamics, so if there are large differences between an immigrant worker and a “native” worker, it could lead in the wage discrimination for the immigrant worker (Kampelmann and Rycx, 2016). If a male native worker applies for the same job as an immigrant female worker, the female applying is met with the “double discrimination” of being both a female and an immigrant (Kampelmann and Rycx, 2016). Labor that is domestically available is more valued than education and experience when it is coming from across borders. This leaves immigrants and migrant workers at a disadvantage when trying to obtain employment and receiving wages (Kampelmann and Rycx, 2016). Within the discrimination of domestic to foreign workers there is also discrimination between foreign workers based on gender. Female foreign workers are segregated in the pool of employers because of the different beliefs of the employers (Kampelmann and Rycx, 2016). They have a harder time integrating than do their male counterparts because they have to integrate as a migrant worker in a different region, as well as having to overcome the gender bias they are faced with socially and economically (Kampelmann and Rycx, 2016). Male and female migrant workers are both faced with disadvantages and discrimination; however, women are targets for even more disadvantages and discrimination.

Wave (Meghan Trainor song)

"Wave" is a song by the American singer-songwriter Meghan Trainor, featuring the producer Mike Sabath, from her third major-label studio album Treat Myself (2020). The track, which was written and produced by the duo, was released on September 27, 2019, as the second single from the album. Backed by panoramic piano and ostentatious background vocals, the electropop and house song lyrically tells the story of the emotional fallout of a failed relationship.

The song received mixed reviews from critics, with some of them praising the lyrics as mature and anthemic, while others were critical of its production. Commercially, it charted at number 35 on the New Zealand Hot Singles chart. Mathew Cullen directed the music video for "Wave", which features an earthy color palette and Trainor dancing atop a group of people that rock around her like waves. Trainor has performed the song on The Ellen DeGeneres Show and The Voice.

Background and release
Meghan Trainor delayed her August 2018-scheduled third major-label studio album, Treat Myself, to January 25, 2019, because she wanted to add more songs to it, and removed it from iTunes that month. Trainor had written "Wave" in 2016, and held onto it until 2019. She approached Mike Sabath to produce the song. As the two became close while working on it in the studio, Trainor asked him to record a verse for the song. Sabath stated that he was "super inspired" by her voice and the energy of the people in the studio, and finished his verse in one take and filled in the lyrics, concluding the recording of the song on March 5, 2019. Sabath went on to produce five of the fifteen tracks from the album, co-writing four of them.

About the inspiration for "Wave", Trainor said that "there was this guy that was -- this poor dude, I'm probably talkin' 'bout him everywhere. But he was like, 'We can't ever be together 'cause it won't last!' But he'd be like, 'I love you' and I was like 'Ok, why are you calling then? Like why is this a thing?' So I don't know how to express myself with words, so I wrote this song and I sent it to him". She has stated that she has "never worked harder on a song" and that Sabath took it to a whole new level.

Trainor announced the release date along with the single artwork for "Wave" on September 25, 2019. The song was digitally released two days later, as the second single from Treat Myself. On October 7, 2019, a solo version of it was serviced to hot adult contemporary radio stations in the United States. A Remix EP to promote "Wave" was released on November 22, 2019, featuring remixes of the song by R3hab, Justin Caruso and Arkadi.

Composition
"Wave" is two minutes and fifty-six seconds long. Sabath produced the song with Trainor and engineered it with John Hanes. He plays drums, bass, and synthesizer, and Trainor plays synthesizer. Jordan Federman, Daryl Sabara, Camila Viola, Trainor and her brother Ryan provide background vocals. Serban Ghenea mixed the song, and Randy Merrill mastered it.

An electropop and house song, According to Dani Blum of Pitchfork, "Wave" begins with Trainor delivering "titanic vocals over a panoramic piano" instrumentation, which transitions into an electronic dance music pulse that was compared to the work of Cascada. The song features "ostentatious" background vocals with gospel-inflected harmonies that she stated were inspired by her visits to Kanye West's Sunday Service Choir shows.

Described as a "frothy electro-bop", its lyrics detail the highs and lows of a dramatic love story. "Wave" talks about the emotional fallout of a relationship that has failed, with lyrics like "And I shouldn't beg for more/But I don't want it to end". It has been called a drastic departure from Trainor's traditional doo-wop sound by PopMatters' Jessica Brant.

Critical reception
The song received mixed reviews from music critics. Idolator's Mike Nied wrote that "Wave" finds "the duo [riding] the waves of their love story", adding that "the end result feels more mature and graceful than some of Meghan's more saccharine bops" and that he loved the creative direction. Nied stated that it may very well be Trainor's best song yet, and is the "sort of mature anthem that could very easily take her career to another level". Heran Mamo of Billboard opined that "the backing choir adds an ethereal layer over the electronic impressions" on "Wave", and that "the chorus is a powerfully sweeping recital that emphasizes just how overwhelming her desire to get this love back is". Writing for Entertainment Tonight Canada, Corey Atad described it as "anthemic and danceable". In a negative review, Hannah Mylrea of NME stated that the song "starts slow before erupting into a tacky house mess that would sound at home soundtracking Love Island. Pitchfork's Dani Blum called it "a Cascada remix for a middle school dance in a sweaty gym".

Music video
Directed by Mathew Cullen and choreographed by Charm La'Donna, the music video for "Wave" was released on October 7, 2019. It features an earthy color palette and depicts Trainor in an abstract dance party where she glides above the hands of several people. Trainor, who is dressed in a nude-colored leotard, dances atop a group of people that rock back and forth. They catch and release her body in rhythm with quivering synths, so as to simulate a human wave. The dancers are dressed in neutral tones and form a giant pyramid shape. The dancers crash like waves around Trainor, as if she were a rock in the water. Sabath joins in later, donning a leopard print headband.

The music video received positive reviews from critics. Rolling Stone's Claire Shaffer wrote that the abstract dance party in the video "transform[s] into an almost spiritual experience for Trainor". Writing for MTV News, Madeline Roth described the choreography as "pristine", adding that the singer looked "absolutely ethereal in a tulle gown". Jessica Brant of PopMatters was positive of the video, stating that the dance moves were executed with "short, military precision" and elaborated that the visuals see Trainor "evocatively stage a physical representation of the enduring power of a shipwrecked romance shared between two partners".

Live performances
Trainor and Sabath performed "Wave" for the first time, on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, on November 6, 2019. They also performed the song at The Voice on December 3, 2019. Trainor performed a stripped-back version of it during her Billboard Live At-Home concert on April 10, 2020, which aimed to raise money for Feeding America.

Endhita

Enditha Wibisono, often referred to simply as Enditha, is an Indonesian model and actress. She garnered a Citra Award nomination for Best Supporting Actress for her role in ?.

Career
Endhita, the youngest of three children, was born in Jakarta. She was a tomboy as a child, and in university studied banking. She entered the modelling industry in 1997 when a friend sent her picture to Femina magazine to compete in its model search program. She went on to be a finalist, and in 2010 she was listed as one of the 25 most successful "Face of Femina" competitors. She later became a catwalk model.

In 2002 Endhita made her feature film debut with Titik Hitam (Black Spot), a horror film. This was followed by a role in Bangsal 13 (Ward 13). In 2005 she starred in Missing as a woman with a sixth sense. Other film works included television serials such as Amira, Andali Lala = Julia Robert, and Pengantin Remaja (Teenage Bride). She also acted in the film Belahan Jiwa (Part of the Soul). FHM publication of pictures of Endhita in skimpy clothing proved to be controversial in Indonesia. The images, which Endhita denied knowing were for public consumption, were subsequently purchased by the magazine's Spanish office.

In 2011, Endhita played Rika, a young divorcée, mother of one, and Catholic convert, in Hanung Bramantyo's film ?. She was called directly by the director and expressed interest as soon as he gave her an outline of the plot. She received a Citra Award nomination for Best Supporting Actress at the 2011 Indonesian Film Festival for the role. In October of that year she married Arlonsi Miraldi, the guitarist in the band Ungu.

Endhita is five months pregnant and preparing for a role as a female police officer in Cintaku Di Saku Celana (Love in My Pants Pocket).

These statements seem very biased and I petition to have them removed.

Yes, many RPG's are linear Tquinnathome1 14:46, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Yes, and linear RPGs are not looked upon favourably by reviewers. The only RPG-like element to Sonic Battle is that you must 'walk' your character around to each battle. If you don't go to the battles in the exact order that the programmers want you to, you don't get anywhere. Sonic Battle is a beat-em-up with an in-depth story, but it's a story that you can't affect in any way.(Harley, 27th October 2006)

I removed that section. It seemed that a few editors could somehow speak on some, many, and most critic's website's behalf without even giving sources. Fix that up or don't re-add it. <IP_ADDRESS> 09:03, 22 October 2006 (UTC)

Series
(Xgamer4726 (talk) 16:43, 2 November 2008 (UTC)) can i point out that sonic advance 3 is in the main series yet the plot is about the events of sonic battle and sonic battle isn't. -Unsigned

Emerl
There was a bad link for Emerl on the Sonic X article which I just fixed to direct to his name, which properly forwards to his description on this page. I am not sure if Emerl is a recurring character in the games or not, but I did put a note about him in the E-Series describing his role in Sonic X, which is basically as important to the character development of Cream as E-123 is to Amy Rose (if not more so...). He seems to be the only character hosted on this page. I'm not sure at this point, but I'd consider him nearly a primary character of Sonic X, due to his power level, character development, and causing the E-series and stuff. Do you guys think he deserves his own article or would that receive resistance? I'm hesitant to do it because judging by the history a lot of revisions have been made to the name. I guess the problem is, he may not be recurring, he plays a strong role in this game, yet it's worth mentioning his depiction in Sonic X (of similar tragedy) which isn't really appropriate for the Sonic Battle video game since it doesn't happen in the game, but in the anime.
