Icelandic Hurricane
Final (18/32/9) Ended 18:23, 2006-08-18 (UTC)

– I would like to nominate Icelandic Hurricane for adminship. He has been a member of Wikipedia since January, and has made over 8000 edits under his username. In addition to that, he has made edits under an IP address since late November 2004. This is an experienced Wikipedian who most certainly wouldn't abuse admin powers. He's already an asset to WikiProject Tropical cyclones. Gray Porpoise 18:23, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

 * Candidate, please indicate acceptance of the nomination here:
 * I definetly accept this. Thanks Gray Porpoise! :) íslenska hurikein | #12 (samtal) 18:51, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

Dear candidate, thank you for offering to serve Wikipedia in this capacity. Please take the time to answer a few generic questions to provide guidance for voters:
 * Questions for the candidate
 * 1. What sysop chores, if any, would you anticipate helping with? Please check out Category:Wikipedia backlog, and read the page about administrators and the administrators' reading list.
 * A: I would probably do the chores of reverting, reverting vandalism (quite different from just reverting), protecting pages, deleting pages and images, and other stuff (I hope I answered the question right). If I become an admin, the first sysop privilege I'd probably use is deleting pages and images because I have a couple of blank pages on my userpage and I have a duplicate image. From there, I'll expand out to helping other users. I begin to revert vandalism much more often, and make sure I leave a note on the vandals talk page.

 * 2. Of your articles or contributions to Wikipedia, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?
 * A: Of all my contributions to wikipedia, my greatest work would definetly be Hurricane Debby (2000), Storm of October 1804, and Tropical Storm Helene (2000). Hurricane Debby is a B-class articleI wrote on June 22 with minimal help. I'm not exactly sure how long the article is, but it seems to be close to 30KB. It has been nominated for GA twice, but both times have failed. Fortunately, the number of reasons it shouldn't be a GA has decreased. Hopefully, by its next nomination, it will pass. The Storm of October 1804 is a GA written on May 17. It's not as long as Debby, but it's better quality. I'm particularly pleased with this article because I wrote an with minimal help on a little info storm and made it such a great article. Tropical Storm Helene is a start class article written just a few days ago. It's almost, but not quite, as long as Debby's article. Due to its recent creation, there hasn't been any GAnoms yet. I also did work on Hurricane Camille, bringing it from B-class to GA-class.

 * 3. Have you been in any conflicts over editing in the past or do you feel other users have caused you stress? How have you dealt with it and how will you deal with it in the future?
 * A: I had with User:NSLE (Now Chacor) a few months ago where he seemed to be paying a little too much attention to me, but he lost interest in me, and now were cool. I also had an aguement with HurricaneCraze32 about ownership of articles. I found Hurricane Bonnie (1986) in his sandbox thing and changed it around a bit and decided to make it into an article. He found out before I finished changing it and got mad. Apparently, he hasn't gotten over it (see below). I dealt with it by telling him I was sorry and should've asked him first.

 * Optional question from Nilfanion: What is your understanding of ownership policy, with regards to both articles and user subpages?--Nilfanion (talk) 13:18, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
 * A: My understanding of ownership policy is that you don't own ANYTHING. I had an issue once with HurricaneCraze32 (see above) about ownership. For example, you shouldn't sign an article, only on discussion pages. And if someone publishes something of mine, I know that I don't own it and I shouldn't have put it on Wikipedia if I didn't want it published.

 * 11) Moral support but urge that the nominee consider withdrawing at this time. Icelandic, you are obviously very dedicated to Wikipedia. You are a valued contributor and I hope you will stay one for many years to come. Please don't take the Oppose votes here as a negative commentary on the contributions you have to make. Up to now your focus has been on editing the articles and you don't need to be an Administrator to keep doing that (I try to add a couple of articles every day and I'm not an Admin myself). In the future, as you do more of the things that require Administrator access, that will be the time for you to re-apply. Also, I just saw the comment on the top of your user page. I am sorry you are feeling unhappy about some things in your real life, and I wish you all the best at putting them right. As much as it pains me to say it, additional online responsibilities might not be the best thing for you right now. Best wishes to you and see you around the weather pages! Newyorkbrad 16:37, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Thank you for your "moral support". I don't think I'm gonna withdraw cuz "Even When All Your Hope is Gone, Move Along, Move Along, Just to make it Through". I doubt I'll be an admin this round, maybe later. Thank you all who supported me, and thank you all who opposed me, because your critisism has made me a better wikipedian. íslenska hurikein | #12 (samtal) 19:14, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

I wish him all the best! One Oppose vote may do devastation, one support does not bring more supports as wikipedians are very intelligent. --Bhadani 17:21, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Oppose
 * 1) Strong oppose In the last 500 mainspace edits, I could find one instance of vandalism reversion . The user did not warn the vandal.  Almost 2000 User namespace edits. (1/4 of the his total edits).  The user has only participated in 2 XfDs, one of which was prompted by an internal spammer requesting a vote.  I am disappointed by the answers to the questions, and I see no demonstration of admin capabilities, or even a need for the tools.  I see minimal behind-the-scenes work.  The user also erred in image tagging here, and recently his many subpages were listed for deletion here.  That, and the user is very young (12? 13? 14?).  Sorry, but I have to oppose AdamBiswanger1 19:22, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Just to let you know, I thought telling the vandal on there talk page that there edits were reverted was optional, so now that I know, I'll do it. Plus, my answers are short because I'm a little busy right now, so I don't have time. I'll get complete answer tonight or tomorrow. Plus, does age really matter? íslenska hurikein | #12 (samtal) 19:51, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
 * That a whole 'nother show. It's not my only reason for opposition, and I know that if I defend the age viewpoint it'll cause nothing but fights, so I'll cross it out. AdamBiswanger1 19:58, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment If editor is this productive at say 14, just imagine how productive he'll be at 24. Age is not a consideration, only quality of edits. I should have been so on the ball at his age. :) Dlohcierekim 21:30, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I'm 12 1/2 actually. íslenska hurikein #12 (samtal) 15:19, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
 * 1) Oppose Lack of experience dealing with vandals.  Q u i z Q u i c k   19:32, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
 * 2) Oppose I would like to see more of a need for admin. tools and participation in XfDs. Until then, I must oppose. Michael 19:40, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
 * 3) Oppose. Sorry buddy, but I personally don't think you have enough experience to be an administrator. Hurricanehink ( talk ) 20:26, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
 * 4) Oppose, I must also oppose. Edit summary usage (44% for minor edits!) is really a problem, coupled with not a huge amount of Wikipedia space edits (although 359 does meet my standards). I just can't support.  Also, if you don't mind me asking, did you get almost 2000 user space edits? And also,, , , and many more of that sort worry me. —  Mets 501  (talk)  20:34, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
 * 5) OPPOSE. Based on not enough AfD experience. I am  concerned by  THIS request to vote followed by This vote on an AfD. as well as  This cry for help on  another AfD resulting in This vote to keep.  The two are of four I found in last 500 edits and do not convince me user is ready for the tools.  I am also afraid that most of us not familiar with Icelandic would not recognize user's signature rendered “íslenska hurikein". Oh, I see opposer #1 already mentioned the 2AfD's. I am concerned that the "internal spammer" is actually a friend of the nom's. This may adversely affect nom's credibility when it comes to blocking or protecting.  :) Dlohcierekim 21:06, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
 * 6) Oppose. Sorry, not impressed with answers. --kingboyk 21:07, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
 * 7) Oppose: Administrators should use edit summaries more than 64% overall. But yes, Icelandic Hurricane is a strong asset to Wikiproject tropical cyclones. Miss Madeline | Talk to Madeline 21:45, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
 * 8) Oppose. In addition to some of the above comments, I'm not persuaded this editor needs the tools, especially after seeing his answer to question #1. There is no "right" or "wrong" answer, but it's apparent from the answer given that this nominee isn't too sure why he needs the tools - or even if he really wants them. <IP_ADDRESS> 21:58, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
 * comment- Fourth or fifth edit. Maybe someone just forgot to sign. :) Dlohcierekim 22:02, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
 * This was my "vote". Somehow I ended up being logged out when I made the entry. I was wondering why this wasn't in my contribution list or in the edit history. I'll "sign" it again, this time ensuring I'm logged in. Agent 86 00:54, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
 * 1) Oppose. Weak answers, the statements were neither clear nor definitive. Admins need to be ascertive. Themindset 22:06, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
 * 2) Oppose. As per User:Themindset. Definitely not administrator–worthy — yet, at least. — `C RAZY `( IN )`S ANE ` 22:33, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
 * 3) Oppose per answers to questions.-- Kungfu Adam ( talk ) 22:35, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
 * 4) Oppose. Mainly answer to question 1, but also due to inexperience concerns above. -- Steel 23:18, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
 * 5) Oppose per all above, my main concern is low WP edits, little XfD experience, and lack of edit summaries. -- Will Mak  050389  23:55, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
 * 6) Oppose. I have worked with this editor in the past, and though I commend his enthusiasm, I feel that he is still too inexperienced. I also see no indication that there is any need for admin tools. --Elonka 23:59, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
 * 7) Strong oppose, no need for tools; more importantly, no knowledge of policy. Chacor 01:45, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Addition - this is cause for concern:      Chacor 01:52, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Addition to my oppose - now that you have expanded on your answers (note: answers have been changed since), my oppose is much more definite. You say "If I become an admin, the first sysop privilege I'd probably use is deleting pages and images because I have a couple of blank pages on my userpage and I have a duplicate image." I say, have you not heard of db-owner? How can an admin not know the speedy criteria? Next, you say "I begin to revert vandalism much more often, and make sure I leave a note on the vandals talk page (Is there a template for that?)." I say, if you're planning to work with vandals, you should already know. You say, "I'm not exactly sure how long the article is, but it seems to be close to 30GB (or MB or something else)." I say, an admin should know about Article size. Chacor 13:22, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I actually knew about speedy deletion, I just had some urge to do it myself. But if I don't become an admin, I'll place the db-owner template on the blank pages. íslenska hurikein | #12 (samtal) 13:26, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
 * 1) Oppose per all above. Also, for future reference to the candidate, spamming talk pages with RfA notices is a big no-no. --Mr. L e fty Talk to me! 02:05, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
 * 2) Oppose due to vague answer to question 1 and lack of vandal reverts. -→ Buchanan-Hermit ™ /?!  02:37, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
 * 3) Oppose Per all above. --Masssiveego 09:14, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
 * 4) Oppose The answers to the questions confirm my feelings from my interaction with him in Wikiproject tropical cyclones that while he is a good contributor, he would likely misuse the tools due to unfamiliarity with policy.--Nilfanion (talk) 15:35, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
 * In addition, the tagging of this image Image:Jose1999cleanup.jpg as GFDL, when he had only received permission to use it on Wikipedia, and hence not usable anyway isn't good.--Nilfanion (talk) 15:13, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
 * 1) Strong Oppose - weak answers to questions, the user does not appear to be familiar with Wikipedia policy and the purpose for admin tools. If he wants pages in his own userspace deleted, he can contact a sysop anyway, he needn't become one. He doesn't seem very familiar with the role of sysops either, and while I doubt he'll abuse the mop, I fear he'll make mistakes. The mop is too powerful. --Draicone (talk) 23:20, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
 * 2) Oppose No experience with AFD's, not familiar with policy. -Royalguard11Talk 01:54, 13 August 2006 (UTC)
 * 3) Oppose per Chacor. I needn't do any more review than that to see an unfamiliarity with policy that's damaging but, when I see the nominor remind the nominee how to behave like an admin, that's fatal. RadioKirk (u|t|c)  02:43, 13 August 2006 (UTC)
 * 4) Oppose ~ trialsanderrors 05:30, 13 August 2006 (UTC)
 * 5) Oppose I was neutral pending the expansion of the question answers; as Chacor, I was a bit disconcerted by those expanded answers, and, as Draicone, I fear not abuse but misuse. Joe 16:05, 13 August 2006 (UTC)
 * 6) Oppose ~ Not because of the article situation, but i agree with the 25 above me.(Neutral before) You're answers aren't strong for adminship.User:Mitchazenia (HurricaneCraze32)
 * 7) Oppose, regrettably. The new answers to the RfA questions really concern me; however, I don't think you would try to intentionally misuse sysop privileges. A few pointers: Take a look at WP:CUV, and see how vandalism can be currently dealt with; Participate on WP:AFD, to get a handle on how deletion policy really works (you may also want to read WP:DGFA and WP:DP as well). Also, watchlist WT:RFA, so you can see what is currently expected of admin candidates. Overall, you're a good editor, you just need a bit more. Tito xd (?!?) 06:55, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
 * 8) Oppose because adminship means more time here, not less. I think you have the stuff that great editors are made of, but you're not quite there yet. With more experience and exposure to RC patrol and WikiDebates, I'll be happy to support in a few months. Baseball,Baby!   balls  •  strikes  00:00, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
 * 9) Good editor, needs more work outside of article space. Oppose, for now. Sorry. DS 00:20, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
 * 10) Oppose per Dlohcierekim and other concerns addressed above. Stubbleboy 02:58, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
 * 11) Oppose per Chacor and Titoxd. I'll gladly support if you can address the issues listed above in a few months. --Core des at talk. ^_^ 03:22, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
 * 12) Strong Oppose per everything above. You need a lot more experience and your answers to the questions are vastly insufficient and lacking substance.  Sorry, stick with it a little longer and I will be glad to support. Wikipediarul e s2221 20:54, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

 * 1) Neutral - weak answers to questions. May support if more comprehensive answers are provided. Kalani  [talk] 19:32, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
 * The answers have now been expanded. Please review them. --Gray Porpoise 13:58, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

 * I'm a guy. íslenska hurikein | #12 (samtal) 19:51, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Neutral Like Kalathalan, I may well support should question answers, when expanded, prove more persuasive; in the meanwhile, I simply can't divine enough about the user's judgment to draw a conclusion apropos of his fitness for adminship, and so, consistent with my RfA criteria, I can neither support nor oppose. I do not, I should say, understand the impulse to disqualify a candidate in view of his not having reverted much vandalism or reported many vandals; there are, of course, plenty of admin tasks for which conversance with WP:AIV is not required, and it is only sensible to oppose where the candidate expresses an intent to involve himself in vandalwhacking, where one might conclude that his unfamiliarity with the process might become disruptive—Icelandic doesn't express an interest in vandalwhacking, and every admin need not participate at WP:AIV.  Joe 20:32, 11 August 2006 (UTC) Moved to oppose.
 * Neutral. I dont mind him being an admin, if he'd stop stealing the articles I was working on in my LNBS and publish it himself.HurricaneCraze32 21:05, 11 August 2006 (UTC)]]
 * I'm sorry. Ok. Can you please get over that. íslenska hurikein | #12 (samtal) 21:22, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Cracky, another wee one. I'm goin' out for some Geritol! :) Dlohcierekim 21:34, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
 * 1) Neutral. Very good user, as I noted on his editor review, but I'm not sure how to vote. Sorry. RandyWang ( chat me up/fix me up ) 03:10, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Instructional design/Affective behaviors/What methods best support affective elements?

Brent, Thanks. I've been like a ridiculous fish out of water on this project. I don't know what has happened to me, but I have S-t-r-u-g-g-l-e-d this semester! I have revamped, in fact, I've really more completely reworked the whole lesson. I've kept the original draft down below, but I only use that for a few references. Please take a look and see if I've brought any clarity to the situation.

Laurie, I would like to offer a few comments and suggestions about your lesson plan. First, I like the idea of listing the specific micro strategies and having learners match these to specific affective outcomes. I was hoping that someone would do this.

I was a little confused by the meaning of "elements" in the objective and your lesson plan. Are we talking about the "levels" in Krathwohl's taxonomy? We should clarify this for the learners with a clear definition and/or examples. Without this support, I am afraid learners may have trouble completing the task.

The CloudNet link includes a few good examples but I also worry that there are too many unrelated links and a few dead links as well. Maybe we should link directly to the best 5 or 6 articles/sites.

The task (Compile your findings) seems reasonable. Having learners post this to the discussion area might work but we might think about setting up a blog for this like we are thinking about for Lesson 1 and 2. This would have the added benefit of making the learner feel more like a member of our community of learners. I understand your intention in linking to the youtube of the sleepy student, but felt that it didn't add much to your overall lesson. To tell the truth, I was a little irritated by the first twenty or so seconds. Let us know if there is anything we can do to help move this lesson along. We will try to help where needed. Jonesbre 07:19, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

Table at the beginning seems confusing
I don't understand the purpose for the table that begins this course. Why is the font so huge? What is the intent of the content? Is this deliberate or some work in progress or some error? Thanks! --Lbeaumont (talk) 02:14, 28 May 2012 (UTC)

Louise Kathrine Dedichen

Louise Kathrine Dedichen (born 1964) is a Norwegian vice-admiral who in June 2019 was appointed head of Norway's military mission in Brussels, becoming Norway's representative on the NATO Military Committee. She is the first woman to serve on the committee. From 2008, she headed the Norwegian Defence University College.

Early life and education
Born in 1964 in Fredrikstad in south-eastern Norway, Dedichen completed her school education in Christianslund in 1982. She then attended Norway's Naval College (1983–1987). She later spent a year at the College interarmées de defense in Paris (2002–2003) and studied culture and conflict at the University of Oslo (2005), completing her education at the Norwegian Defence University College in Oslo (2006).

Career
She first served as quartermaster on KNM Stavanger and KNM Trondheim (1987–1989). She then served on the Naval Supply Command before serving as deputy head of Norway's military mission in Brussels (1995–1998). Dedichen then joined the Armed Forces Command as press assistant and project coordinator (1998–2000). From 2003, she took up an appointment at the Defence University College, first as head teacher in economics, then as head of department for logistics, management and method. In 2008, as a rear admiral, she served as head of the Defence College.

Her appointment as head of the Norwegian Defense University College was challenged by another of the candidates, Brigadier Øyvind Kirsebom Strandman, who alleged that Dedichen had been appointed because she was a woman. The case went to the Norwegian Supreme Court who ruled by four to one in 2014 that she had been appointed not because she was a woman but because she was the most qualified applicant.

In June 2019, she was appointed head of Norway's military mission in Brussels, becoming the first woman to serve on the NATO Military Committee.

IB Cultural Anthropology/The Nature of Anthropology/Paradigm of Anthropology

Definition
All disciplines have assumptions. Empirical sciences are data-based and assume that theories can be formulated to explain that data. Empirical sciences also assume that data is neutral- which it is not. A paradigm is a result of these assumptions- it is the existing beliefs, practices, and general perspective of a discipline. The paradigm of a discipline is expressed through various products of the discipline such as laws, theories, generalizations, methods of collecting data, and methods of evaluating data.

Paradigm Shift
Findings that do not fit within the existing paradigm may cause a paradigm shift may occur. This happened with Einstein’s theory of relativity. It was previously believed that time was constant throughout the universe. Einstein showed that it was not, so the paradigm shifted- now the belief is that time is a dimension like space.

The Paradigm of Cultural Anthropology

 * Anthropology is comparative.
 * It is comparative synchronically and diachronically.
 * Ethnography is the short term goal of data. Ethnology is the long term goal.
 * Anthropology and culture are holistic.
 * A change of one small aspect of a culture will ripple through to the rest of the culture.
 * Multiple systems and processes for an action.
 * E.g. there are many reasons why different people don’t do the same action of smoking- health, affordability, cosmetic reasons, etc.
 * Emic & Etic
 * To wholly understand a culture, it must be observed through both an emic and etic perspective.
 * Case studies must be made using participant observation.

Kido Witbooi

 * ... that Kido Witbooi, first Kaptein of the ǀKhowesin, suggested the name for the Namibian village Gibeon?
 * Reviewed: Template:Did you know nominations/Manot Cave (became co-nominator of that submission) Template:Did you know nominations/Liu Han

Created by Pgallert (talk). Self nominated at 19:56, 10 February 2015 (UTC).
 * It's new and long enough. No image.. Article is neutral. No plagiarism. Hook is accurate. QPQ done. Everything is cited, I can't read all the sources but assuming good faith. Issues stated below. Pardon my style claims below, I am not African. starship.paint  ~ ¡ Olé !  03:02, 15 February 2015 (UTC)
 * QPQ needed.
 * [1] says "Captain", not Kaptein. Tribal chief does not mention that either. [2] calls Kido the eventual "hoofkaptein". So, which term should we use?
 * Related: [1] says "first established leader" but does not equate that to "first Kaptein". Suggest hook change to "first leader of the ǀKhowesin". Hook is otherwise accurate.
 * [3] says /Khowesin, not ǀKhowesin. Which is it?
 * [3] mentions crossing into the Fish River (Namibia), not Griqualand?
 * Minor content issue: [1] has information about his wives (Gâbes and U-khoms) and daughter Johanna that should be included.
 * Minor content issue: [2] says Pella was known as Kamas at the time of Kido's birth?
 * Minor content issue: From [2], is it important to say which tribe Kido's father and mother were from?
 * More to follow. would you like to address these first? starship.paint  ~ ¡ Olé !  03:30, 15 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Hi and thanks for the detailed feedback. Let me address some of your points:
 * The Orlam spoke Afrikaans at that time. In Afrikaans Kaptein is a tribal chief. English sources often anglicise it to Captain, but that is somewhat inconsistent, because they rarely anglicise other such vocabulary like hompa or memekulu. That's why I think Kaptein is better. Hoofkaptein is paramount chief, but that has a special meaning today: a chief with other chiefs under them.
 * It is ǀKhowesin. Not everyone is willing to look for the correct symbol of the dental click, that's why some type a pipe symbol and some a forward slash.
 * They first trekked into Griqualand, and then into Namaqualand. Griqualand is supported by the Dierks ref, I have made that explicit now. In order to get from Pella to the Fish River one has to cross the Orange. As the Oranje is still the southern border of Namibia/South West Africa I worded it this way.
 * I forgot about the QpQ, will do that now. Cheers, Pgallert (talk) 10:33, 15 February 2015 (UTC)
 * PS: I have added a review now. --Pgallert (talk) 11:11, 15 February 2015 (UTC)
 * - Okay. Thanks for your quick reply. I have struck out the resolved concerns. I have now looked through the whole article. These should be the remaining issues.
 * Google doesn't let me read page 62 and 63 of [Hate the Old]. I am unable to verify that the last sentence of the Wikipedia article. Could you add to the |quote= ?
 * I'm still not convinced by "Kaptein". I need a source, any reliable source, even if in Afrikaans, calling him that. Unless you can produce that, I can't approve of the hook or the article calling him anything but "chief" [3][4] / "leader" [1] / "Captain" [1][4] or "hoofkaptein" [2]
 * As per [4] and [1], I don't think "Kido" is a short form of "Cupido". [4] says Kido (later Cupido) on page 166 so it is obviously an alternative name.
 * Could you add Around 1850 Witbooi and his clan had been invited by Jonker Afrikaner to travel to Windhoek. Minor content issue: Also, Witbooi never reached Windhoek right? If so, I'd like a mention.
 * Does [1] say that the ǀKhowesin (Witbooi Nama) are a subtribe of the Orlam of South-West Africa, present-day Namibia? I am not seeing it. starship.paint  ~ ¡ Olé !  11:51, 15 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Hi User:Starship.paint, and sorry for the long silence. I had a few other fires to put out. By now it has transpired that I became a nominator, not a reviewer, of Manot Cave. I'll add a new review in due time. In the mean time I found references for the use of the word Kaptein, and for the ǀKhowesin being a subtribe of the Orlam. For privileged access to Google Books I have to be at work, please give me another day. --Pgallert (talk) 20:01, 17 February 2015 (UTC)

 * It's okay . I have crossed out the resolved concerns, and highlighted the still unresolved ones in green. I have one additional concern - what is the difference between the Nama and the Orlam? [Tonchi, Lindeke & Grotpeter 2012] says that the Witboois are Namas while [Hate the Old] says that they are Orlam. Note: I will be on vacation for about a week. Might not have much Internet access. starship.paint  ~ ¡ Olé !  00:38, 18 February 2015 (UTC)
 * I have added a new review. Enjoy your vacation, I will likewise be out of town without Internet access until Monday. --Pgallert (talk) 16:42, 19 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the wait, I'm back now. I can't read [6] but I'll AGF on that. I also read Oorlam people to clear up the Nama/Orlam. Any unstruck issues are minor issues for article expansion. starship.paint  ~ ¡ Olé !  03:07, 23 February 2015 (UTC)

Cause for failure of agriculture

agriculture is a commercial business or we can say main occupation of indian people. Post independance 72% of GDP contribute by agriculture sector.almost 70-80% population of india employed presently 52% of GDP contribute by agriculture sector.

cause for failure:

LESS literacy RATE: In agriculture sector baecause most of people in agriculture belong from village or rural areas. In these areas education is not complusory because farmer think that if his son went for education n school he waste his time in the school.80-90% farmer of india take a loan from sahukars(rural financier)at very higher interest rate almost at(15-20%).This                  thing done due to illiteracy.

suggestion: 1. full confidance on co-orparate banks who provide loans at less rate. 2.literacy rate must be increase in agricultre sector because if farmer is illiterate (how he understand new technology                     in agriculture sector.                   3.illiterate farmer always follow traditional way of agriculture .                   4.always communicate with regional agriculture university for hybrid seeds .hybrid seeds are those seeds which are                      give more production as compare traditional seeds

Pine Lake tornado

The Pine Lake tornado was a deadly tornado in central Alberta which occurred on Friday, July 14, 2000, and struck a campground and a trailer park. Twelve people were killed, making it the first deadly tornado in Canada since 1987, when an F4 tornado killed 27 people in Edmonton, Alberta and injured 300+.

Summary
On July 14, 2000, at approximately 7 PM, an F3 tornado tore through the Green Acres Campground at Pine Lake in central Alberta, killing 12 people and critically injuring more than 100 others. Pine Lake is a recreational area approximately 25 km southeast of Red Deer, Alberta and 150 km northeast of the city of Calgary. The tornado formed out of a severe thunderstorm which formed on the eastern slopes of the Canadian Rockies and moved rapidly eastward, encountering a narrow band of low-level moisture that caused it to develop into a supercell thunderstorm. It touched down about 5 km west of the campground and was on the ground for approximately 20 km.

Damage occurred in a swath 800 to 1500 m wide. The heaviest damage occurred in a 500 m central corridor. Damage assessment suggests that winds within the central corridor reached 300 km/h. In addition, Weather Watchers reported hail as large as baseballs.

An average of 16 tornadoes occur in Alberta every year, and an average of 41 tornadoes occur each year in the Prairie Provinces. The highest death toll due to a single tornado in Alberta occurred on July 31, 1987, colloquially referred to as Black Friday. Canada ranks second in the world for tornado occurrences after the United States.

Chronology

 * 5:37 PM Mountain Daylight Time (MDT) – Environment Canada issues a severe thunderstorm watch for the Red Deer area, including Pine Lake.
 * 6:18 PM MDT – watch upgraded to a severe thunderstorm warning, indicating that a thunderstorm with potentially large hail, very heavy rain, intense lightning and dangerous winds had developed.
 * 7:00 PM MDT – the tornado destroys a number of recreational vehicles in the Green Acres Campground on the western shore of Pine Lake. 12 people are killed and more than 100 critically injured.
 * 7:05 PM MDT – RCMP notify Environment Canada that a tornado had just been reported at Pine Lake. The severe thunderstorm warning was immediately upgraded to a tornado warning.
 * After 7:05 PM MDT – Warnings and watches were continued through the evening hours. In all, more than 40 watches and warnings were issued for Alberta and Saskatchewan as the storm crossed the provincial boundary.

The Design and Organization of Data Centers/Documentation

Labeling
Neatness begets neatness.

Use a label maker. It means your labels look neat, uniform, and are easy to read.

Label front and back of machine with name, IP address, & MAC Address. This means you are less likely to pull the wrong cable or shut down the wrong machine.

Label multiple NICS on a single machine.

Document VLANs on switches to allow installation without a network engineer.

Organizing your documentation
Keep documentation where it is needed.

Make sure it is easy to update.

Self adhesive vinyl pockets - great for walls and cabinets

Folder pockets - great for three ring binders

Consider a wiki or FAQ-o-matic, but have paper backups printed regularly.

Understanding of a problem leads to quicker resolution. Documentation can be part of that.

List of documentation to have

 * Phone lists - near phones
 * Company phone list
 * Tech support phone list with contact numbers
 * Loading dock height/ doorway dimensions

 * Computer and network documents
 * Network Diagram
 * Start up/Shut down directions
 * machine instructions

 * Mechanical
 * buttons/switches labeled by contractor
 * Equipment maintenance schedules - air conditioning
 * Start up/Shut down directions
 * Permits posted securely

Produce basic client side script for dynamic web pages

From the official document:
 * This unit defines the competency required to produce a number of client side scripts for dynamic web pages, utilising a range of relevant features from different appropriate languages.

You can read more on the National Training Information Service's official document for ICAB4137A or read below to find out how this unit might benefit you!

This unit forms part of the following qualifications:
 * Cert IV Websites Qualification in Australia

How this unit will help you
In outline, this unit will help you:

 * 1) Analyse the exact requirements for your specific project, including the dynamic functionality (e.g. form validation, fades, animations, interactivity etc.) and the client-side scripting language that you can use to achieve this functionality (usually Javascript, but could also include Flash Actionscript or VBScript).
 * 2) Design and create your HTML (ensuring that you meet accessibility requirements and other relevant standards) with your initial client-side script embedded or linked in a separate file.
 * 3) Test, debug and retest your scripts until you achieve the functionality that you're aiming for.
 * 4) Finish off the documentation (you should already be commenting appropriately in your code!) and submit your design for approval to the appropriate person.

Ideas for demonstrating this unit
A combination of the activities included in An Introduction to Programming with Javascript, including the Javascript Challenges, may help to demonstrate competence for this unit.

(TODO: include example technical documentation, include projects beyond the JS challenges)

Grading
If you are demonstrating this unit as part of a formal course, you might find that the unit is graded (meaning you can not only demonstrate your competence, but can also gain a credit or distinction). Your facilitator may already have set criteria that your college uses. If not, here are some ideas for possible credit/distinction activities that you can discuss with your facilitator:

 * Implement better input validation (inline HTML rather than alert boxes). See Javascript Challenge 4
 * Complex input validation (such as email or credit cards)
 * Learn what unobtrusive Javascript is and convert your own pages!
 * Interact with third-party Javascript libraries such as GoogleMaps.
 * Try out and demonstrate some basic AJAX

Talk:Cryptography/Random number generation

Why
This page should open with an explanation of why encryption specifically depends on the use of random numbers. And not how it depends on them.

A counterexample could be explored, such as use of an an OTP whereby a certain key is chosen (or calculated) for a plaintext that is designed to yield the ciphertext of. No random numbers are used here, and the OTP still provides perfect encryption. Even though an obvious reason this might not work is that the key cannot be preexchanged (if that is necessary), that does not explain why random numbers are necessitated by cryptography. Poppafuze 05:59, 22 October 2006 (UTC)

Request for graphs
If anyone with access to Maple, Mathematica, etc. could make graphs of all the functions used in the article -- that is, arctan(x), (1/2) + (1/π) * arctan(x), f(x)=x^(3/2), and f(x)=x^2+c -- and place them in logically, I would really appreciate it. It's late now, so I'm stopping for the night, but I would like to add (or like someone to add) a section on using modular groups to generate random numbers. Unforunately, those two methods of random number generation are the only two that I'm familiar with, but if anyone is familiar with more, please feel free to add them. --Iamunknown 06:49, 24 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Newton's method
Moved from Cryptography/Random number generation

Why don't the Pseudorandom number generator and http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?PseudoRandomNumberGenerator articles mention this "Newton's method on a non-converging function" pseudo-random number generator?

I moved the following "Newton's Method" method of generating "random" numbers to the talk page, because I suspect it is *not* a good method of generating pseudorandom numbers. I would be fascinated to know why anyone thinks it is a good method. --DavidCary 06:44, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

Using Newton's Method and Arctangent
First, remember that the arctangent function is defined for all x in the reals, and is mapped for all f(x) less than π/2 but greater than the -π/2.

{arctan(x) ∈ R: -π/2 < x < π/2} (1)

One common trait of random number generators is a domain mapped to all reals greater than or equal to 0 but less than or equal to 1. To do so, we take the arctangent function, and modify it:

0 < 1/2 + (1/π)*arctan(x) < 1 (2)

Now, the graph of this particular function reveals a smooth, continuous function defined for all reals. This function does not generate pseudorandom numbers by itself. It merely scales them to any number mapped greater than or equal to 0 but less than or equal to 1. (Note: although it is beyond the scope of this text, probability theory shows that this function, with well-formed input, indeed converges to a set with a standard distribution.)

The most used input for this modified arctangent function such that it is a useful stochastic process is, surprisingly, Newton's method for any function that does not converge.

For any value of a function that the condition for convergence for Newton's method fails, the value x resultant from each successive iteration of Newton's method is completely independent (logistically speaking) from the number previously! And when that number is fed into our modified arctangent function, it is mapped to any real greater than or equal to 0 and less than or equal to 1!

Note
Some functions are more suitable choices for our purposes than others. For example, |f(xi+1)|>|f(xi)| for each iteration of the function f(x)=x3/2. One choice often used is the function f(x)= x2+c where c>0.

Instructional design/Cognitive behaviors/Teaching Procedures, page 4

Instructional Design > Cognitive behaviors > Teaching Procedures > Define > Learn > Teach > Routine > Power > Steps > Try > Example

Needs Analysis
The first task of an instructional developer is to decide what to teach, if anything. This requires that a needs analysis--including a goals analysis and learner analysis--be performed (Kaufman, 1979).

Goals Analysis
The goals analysis will help you identify what the learners need to be able to do after completing the training lessons.

Learner Analysis
During a learner analysis, you will assess learners’ abilities and identify any deficiencies in their skills. This will tell you how ready and able they are to reach the learning goals, and where the training lessons need to start.

Some methods for performing needs analysis include the following:

 * Survey learners
 * Interview learners or groups of learners
 * Test learners
 * Interview qualified teachers or subject matter experts who understand the needs of the learners and the procedures they need to learn

Task Analysis
After identifying the learning goals, you may need to break the goals down further into tasks, or substeps. This is known as task analysis or content analysis. Using the fractions example on the previous page, we may determine that the learner does not know what a common denominator (in step 2) is or how to find one. It would therefore be necessary to also teach the user the concepts of denominator and common denominator, as well as the task of how to find a common denominator. For more information on teaching concepts, refer to the Concept Classification lesson.

Instructional Tactics
Once we have determined what the learner needs to learn, we can focus on the instructional tactics for how to teach those tasks, concepts, or procedures to the learners. Instructional tactics are categorized as follows:

 * Routine tactics teach the basic skill or procedure
 * Power tactics enrich the learner's experience with that skill or procedure

Learning Check
{What is included in needs analysis? Select all that apply. + Determining what the learner already knows how to do. - Determining how the procedure's steps need to be arranged. + Identifying what the learner needs to be able to do. - Distinguishing between routine and power tactics.
 * type="[]"}
 * Correct! This is called "learner analysis."
 * This is not done until after the needs analysis is complete.
 * Correct! This is called "goals analysis."
 * This is not done until after the needs analysis is complete and after the procedure steps have been outlined.

{If sub-steps need to be identified, what type of analysis is used? - Goals analysis - Learner analysis - Needs analysis + Task analysis
 * type=""}
 * Goals analysis is part of needs analysis and is done before the procedure's steps and sub-steps are identified.
 * Learner analysis is part of needs analysis and is done before the procedure's steps and sub-steps are identified.
 * Needs analysis and is done before the procedure's steps and sub-steps are identified.
 * Correct! Task analysis is performed to determine the sub-steps in a procedure.

Structural design

Structural design is a Science and an Art. It is a tool for modern Creators and the world of Design. It can also be used in Literature and Music. It is a way of getting new ideas and inspirations,at Art schools and workshops,allowing architect[[s,painters graphic designers,interior designers,industrial designers,better work out their projects,developing original creativity,while basing their designs on natural,biological elements or even other works created by other creators.

This is not a new way to produce design or art,but the systematic approach of getting it to work is.

Structural Research is not an artistic goal,in itself,rather a] catalyst of ideas and imagination,that can be used to suit all human creativness.

Principles of Structural design

Structural Research is based on a principle:

Since nature made things that can hold coherent together,from the beauty point of view,as well as function,construction and details,all for visual presence and utility,why modern creators will not make designs that behave in the same way?

For that several technics are possible:
 * To copy nature and its elements.
 * To study the natural objects in their details.
 * To peel and dissect the elements of nature, as systematic way to seek hidden secrets that builds the internal and external architecture.
 * To seek the Structure of chosen objects from nature and their composition,by taking into account the repetitive units,patterns, geometrical construction and shapes, discovering the algorithms hidden inside and outside the natural elements, in order to study the resistance of forms, overall architecture and the structure of fibers which are giving strength and overall beauty.

The 1932 Iowa State Cyclones football team represented Iowa State College of Agricultural and Mechanic Arts (later renamed Iowa State University) in the Big Six Conference during the 1932 college football season. In their second season under head coach George F. Veenker, the Cyclones compiled a 3–4–1 record (0–4–1 against conference opponents), finished in last place in the conference, and outscored their opponents by a combined total of 105 to 101. They played their home games at State Field in Ames, Iowa.

Dick Grefe was the team captain. No Iowa State player was selected as a first-team all-conference player.

Cookbook:Ethics

Many individuals feel that their cooking should reflect their ethics. Note that these ethics are not necessarily universal, and the chef is free to decide which of these is important. Note also that in some cases the efficacy in achieving these goals (such as gathering wild food to avoid buying farmed food) is questionable, or may even run counter to your goals. If you decide you care about these issues, it is up to you to research them.

Treatment of animals
The treatment of animals is important to some cooks. Some may only consume eggs, meat, and dairy from free-range animals. Others will avoid eating any animals (vegetarianism) or will avoid any animal products at all (veganism). Some individuals will eat only seafood that has been caught without harming any dolphins or other marine life.

Sustainability
The issue of sustainability has come up in cooking, especially with regard to climate change and damage to the environment. To achieve this, some individuals will preferentially eat food that is in season and local to their area, or will only eat food that they have hunted or gathered themself. Some also use reusable bags and avoid food with excess packaging in order to reduce the amount of waste they generate. Some vegetarians and vegans avoid animal products, associating a higher carbon footprint with animal husbandry.

Consideration for guests
For some cooks, consideration of the needs of their guests is very important. In these cases, the cooks may take care to consider their guests' dietary needs and requirements, such as food allergies or religious requirements. They may also take care to not get hair, saliva, tears, fingertips, or other parts of themself in the food.

FARC commentary

 * Suggested FA criteria concerns are lack of inline citations (1c) and MOS issues (2). Diff. Marskell 09:12, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

 * Remove. No inline citations. Sections like "Trivia" and "Cultural References" with scattered information are not recommended for FA. They need either rewriting or merger.--Yannismarou 10:59, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

 * Remove. No inline citations, a violation of criterion 1. c. As already stated by other Wikipedians, the "Trivia" and "Cultural References" sections are poor. All the info within the trivia section needs to be incorporated elsewhere if important, or otherwise removed so that the article ends up without a trivia section. The "Cultural References" section needs a major rewrite to veer away from the frankly lazy bullet style format, and be written in proper paragraphs which all intertwine together.

Sarah Ann Lillie Hardinge

Sarah Ann Lillie Hardinge (née Bumstead, March 23, 1824 – October 13, 1913) was a self-taught painter whose watercolors of Texas, painted between 1852 and 1856, provide rare, early pictorial documentation of the territory. She is among the earliest female painters to depict the state. She later patented a photo-finishing process called Pearletta Pictures.

Biography
Hardinge (née Bumstead) was born March 23, 1824, in New England. She was the youngest child in a middle-class family of nineteen children.

Hardinge married Dr. George Hardinge on November 14, 1851. After settling briefly in Brooklyn, the newlyweds left for Texas on January 29, 1852, to secure property Sarah inherited from her brother, Edward (d. May 29, 1850). Hardinge's letters to her family chronicled her life in Houston, Austin, Seguin, and San Antonio and travels around the state. During her time in Texas, she taught school, wrote, and painted. She and George had three sons, Edward (b. July 20, 1852), George (b. February 8, 1854) and Henry (b. 1855). She called the boys "our Trio Texans." Hardinge was motivated to bring "civilization" to Texas.

In March 1856, the Hardinge family left Texas, having failed in their efforts to sell the inherited property and been frightened by Indian raids. Hardinge kept a journal of the overland trip from Cibolo to Matagorda Bay, whence they embarked for Boston. Sarah Ann divorced George in 1865. She married the Reverend Harrison Daniels in 1875.

In 1869, Hardinge patented a photo-finishing process she named Pearletta Pictures. A wax layer applied to the surface of a photograph softened the image and permitted the addition of color and other special effects.

Hardinge died in East Orange, New Jersey, in 1913.

Works
Hardinge's watercolors provide some of the earliest images of the Texas territory, which had become part of the United States with the Treaty of Guadalupe ending the Mexican-American war in 1848. Hardinge was a self-taught artist. She mainly painted landscapes, views of Texas cities, and the homes of important Texans. She also painted missions and captured daily life on Texas plantations. American Heritage called her work "sharply observant." Her 1853-54 watercolor "Pleasant Grove" -- Residence of Mr. J. Morrison, Texas may include the earliest depiction of a Texas cowhand.

Some of her works are in the collection of the Amon Carter Museum of American Art. The museum collected 19 watercolors and part of her journal into a catalog called Views of Texas: Watercolors by Sarah Ann Lillie Hardinge (1988). It also included an introduction by Ron Tyler, the director of the Texas State Historical Association.

Solid Geometry (film)

Solid Geometry is a 2002 short TV film directed by Denis Lawson and starring his nephew Ewan McGregor and Ruth Millar. It is based on a short story by Ian McEwan published in collection First Love, Last Rites. It was made for the Scottish Television/Grampian Television New Found Land series, first shown by them on 3 October 2002. Co-financed by Channel 4, it was subsequently shown by them on 28 November 2002. Production on an earlier BBC adaptation was halted at a late stage in 1979.

Plot
Phil (McGregor) is a successful advertising executive and Maisie (Millar) is his young and hedonistic wife, but their lives are thrown into turmoil when Phil inherits his great-great grandfather's secret diaries. He becomes obsessed with research into solid geometry contained in the diaries and is fascinated by the theory of "a plane without a surface." His pursuit of this mythical geometric concept tears his marriage apart. The film is interspersed with flashbacks showing Phil's great-great grandfather discovering the same mysteries of the supernatural side of geometry as Phil is uncovering by reading the diaries.

Eventually Phil follows the instructions buried in the diaries and begins carefully folding a large sheet of paper in on itself like a lotus flower, then the folded paper emits a bright light, folds over itself and disappears. On seeing this, he dedicates his life to understanding more about the diaries and his great-great grandfather's mysterious disappearance.

He goes on to become obsessed with this transformation and the discussion in the book which links it to 'sexual intercourse positions' of which the diary claims there are only 17. After a love-making session with his wife, he proceeds to place another of the paper lotus flowers in the center of her curled body. As she curls into a foetal position unknowingly around the paper flower, she somehow completes the flower folding as had previously been achieved with just the paper. She spins around the paper flower several times and disappears, emitting tones of shock and fear. The film ends with Phil alone in bed.

Danny Knicely

Daniel Shane Knicely, known as Danny Knicely, (born 1975 in Rockingham County, Virginia) is an American country and bluegrass musician. In addition to singing, he plays guitar, fiddle, and mandolin. His album releases include: The Evenin' News, Chop, Shred & Split, Waltz for Aimee, The Melody Lingers, Roots and Branches, and Murders, Drownings and Lost Loves (2006) — which he recorded with Will Lee.

He is musical director for the Mountain Music Project, a nonprofit supporting traditional musicians around the world, and played a major role in the film“The Mountain Music Project” which documents a journey Tara Linhardt and he took through the Himalayas of Nepal and the mountains of Virginia exploring the connections between these two mountain cultures (and their music).

Early
Knicely's grandfather, A. O. Knicely – known as "A.O.K." – played old-time guitar, mandolin, and fiddle as leader of the Knicely Family Band from the 1930s on. His father, Glen Shelton Knicely (d. December 17, 2018), who was born August 11, 1940, in Augusta County, Virginia, played bass and banjo in A.O.K.’s band – and led his own country and bluegrass band, Dominion Express. Knicely's mother created Heartland, a country and gospel band, and the Massanutten Mountain Cloggers.

Knicely got his first instrument, a ukelele, when he was seven years old. His father tried tuned it as a mandolin and broke half the strings. When he was eight a cousin gave him a cassette taped from old Django Reinhardt 78s played on a windup Victrola, igniting a lifelong musical eclecticism.

He played upright and electric bass in his middle school band, turning professional at 14 when he joined his mother's band as a bassist providing baritone vocal harmony.

When Spike Stroop, a Virginia bluegrass fiddler, heard Danny he used him as rhythm guitarist for fiddle contests and festivals. It was at the Galax Old Fiddler's Convention that Will Lee, son of Ricky Lee who played lead guitar with the Stanley Brothers, first jammed with the 15-year-old phenom. Will lived for a while with the rest of his family on Ralph Stanley’s farm on Smith Ridge in Virginia. Lee started bringing his guitarist, the flatpicking virtuoso Larry Keel, over on weekends to jam with his new find. This combo grew into Magraw Gap, a "high energy threesome playing wild, creative bluegrass arrangements that folded in licks from jazz, blues, rock ‘n’ roll, and even reggae." John Flower would join later. Group members called their style "spacegrass".

Magraw Gap
Magraw Gap – a bluegrass band including Knicely, Will Lee, John Flower, and Larry Keel – took first place at the Telluride Bluegrass Festival in 1995. The group inspired the formation of Walker's Run in Lexington, Virginia, an act Knicely has performed with often.

Other groups
Other groups Knicely has performed with include: Danny Knicely with Wyatt Rice & Mark Schatz, The Melody Lingers On, The Mountain Music Project, Furnace Mountain, The Meaning of Buckdance, Ouros, Bluegrass & Beyond, and Purgatory Mountain. He also performed with John Flower in David Via and Corn Tornado and with Will Lee in Walker's Run.

As session musician, producer, and arranger Knicely has recorded with such other act as Nate Leath, James Leva, Keller Williams, Tim O'Brien, Sarah Jarosz, Bruce Molsky, Tony Trischka, The Woodshedders, Rooster Ruley, Gary Ruley, and Chance McCoy of Old Crow Medicine Show.

Knicely, Will Lee, and John Flower – all original members of Magraw Gap – recorded The Evening News as a trio in 2017. The release features "originals, old favorites, a cappella numbers, hot instrumentals, and tight harmony singing."

Venues
Knicely has performed at a number of music festivals, including: MerleFest, Telluride Bluegrass Festival, Rockygrass, Smilefest, Delfest, FloydFest, and the Grass Roots Festival. Prominent stages where he's performed include: the Kennedy Center, Lincoln Center, Strathmore Hall, The Prism Coffeehouse, Jefferson Theater (Charlottesville), The Birchmere, House of Blues (Los Angeles), The Fillmore Auditorium (San Francisco), Nissan Pavilion, Station Inn, Country Music Hall of Fame, and Opryland Theater.

Mountain Music Project
Knicely serves as musical director for the Mountain Music Project, a nonprofit organization supporting traditional musicians around the world. The feature-length film"The Mountain Music Project" documents a journey Tara Linhardt and he – both Loudoun County-based performers of bluegrass and old-time Appalachian music based (musically) in Taylorstown who have worked together for two decades – took through the Himalayas of Nepal and the mountains of Virginia as they explore the connections between these two mountain cultures.

The idea for The Mountain Music Project originated with Linhardt in college when she spent a study year in Nepal. In 2002, she and Knicely traveled back to Nepal, where she was able to reconnect with some people she knew from years ago. In Kathmandu – after meeting Buddhiman Gandharba, a member of the Gandharba musician caste – Knicely noticed during an impromptu jam session the "striking similarities" between some of the Nepalese songs and those of Appalachia. As Linhardt recalls: "One [of the Gandharba songs] sounded just like ‘Sally Anne,’ which is one of our real common fiddle tunes. So when we went back the next night, we just started playing ‘Sally Anne,’ and they were like, ‘Hey, you already figured out one of our songs.’" Knicely and Linhardt teamed with producer Jacob Penchansky in 2006 and began filming the documentary and recording related music. They traveled through Virginia to record songs and stories of traditional Appalachian musicians. The film juxtaposes clips of the Gandharba and Appalachian people "making music and talking about their lives and traditions," highlighting their "parallel traditions".

The film won best independent documentary at the Carolina Film and Video Festival, best film at the International Folk Music Film Festival in Nepal, and the Sierra Nevada Award at the Mountain Film Festival.

Style and sound
As when he was with Magraw Gap, Knicely is known for playing high-energy "wild, creative bluegrass arrangements" that integrate "licks from jazz, blues, rock ‘n’ roll, and even reggae." He offers "cutting tenor" vocals on arrangements.

Portuguese/Contents/Common Prepositions and Contractions

Common Prepositions and Contractions
Prepositions are words that describe location, for instance, 'at', 'of' etc.

However, unlike in English, some of these "contract". That means they join other words to form new words, not always in a facilitative way.

Some contractions are viewed as obligatory:

 * those with the personal pronouns (ele, ela, etc...)
 * those with the demonstrative pronouns/adjectives (esse, aquele, etc...)
 * those with the direct objects (o, a, etc...)
 * those with adverbs of place (onde, aqui, etc...)

Others are viewed as optional and their frequency of use depends on the speaker's dialect.

Attention: in the formal written language, when the preposition "de" is part of an expression or infinitive construction (such as: apesar de, a fim de, por causa de, etc...), it's never contracted, as it is considered part of that construction. Examples:

 * apesar de ele estar feliz, eu não estou
 * (even though he's happy, I'm not)

 * por causa de isso nunca melhorar, estamos tristes
 * (because this never gets better, we are sad)

This rule is pratically ignored in speech by most speakers. Here are the prepositions and their contractions with articles, pronouns, adverbs, etc...

Note: contractions which are colloquial-only don't have standard forms, those written here are the variations most used by the speakers themselves.
