Talk:Félix du Temple de la Croix

"Sometimes", not "often"
Let's be real and Neutral Point of View. It should be written "sometimes credited", not "often". For example if you do a Google search of "first flight", you will get a very low percentage of mentions of Félix. 136,000 hits versus 531 hits. Hu 04:01, 21 March 2006 (UTC)

 * Here are some of quotes regarding this claim, although I agree it is a little known fact, hence the small number of hits PHG 04:13, 21 March 2006 (UTC):

 * "The first takeoff of a powered, fixed-wing aircraft with a man aboard took place in 1874 at Brest, France. The steam-engine-powered plane, designed by a French naval officer, Félix du Temple, rose a few feet when it was launched down a hill." The New York Times, 2003
 * "In 1874, French naval officer Félix Du Temple successfully launched a bat-like plane with a steam engine. Rising a few feet off the ground, it was the first launch of a manned, powered fixed-wing aircraft." in Wright College
 * "Felix Du Temple built a steam-powered monoplane that managed to rise a few feet off the ground-the first powered fixed-wing aircraft that carried a passenger, albeit down a slope." US National Park Service
 * "First powered flight to make even a brief hop", according to the U.S. Centennial of flight commission
 * "It was more of a "hop" than a real flight, but some historians give du Temple credit for the first powered flight." in The pioneers, an anthology and The National Business Aviation Association
 * "It is said the craft managed to make a brief hop a few feet off the ground after being rolled down an inclined slope, gliding a short distance, and landing safely. If this account is true, Félix du Temple did succeed in launching the first manned, powered, fixed-wing, heavier-than-air flight, but the propulsion system was too weak to sustain the flight and the control system was ineffective." in Aerospaceweb.org

Translation of quote needed
A translation of the quote at the bottom of the page is needed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Chile (talk • contribs) 04:02, 21 March 2006 UTC

Pilotted or not is not clear
The article does not make it clear if this "first flight" was pilotted or not. Hu 04:08, 21 March 2006 (UTC)

 * "In 1874, the two brothers built the "Monoplane", a large plane made of aluminium in Brest, France, with a wingspan of 13 meters and a weight of only 80 kilograms (without the driver)."

 * Seems obvious enough I reckon, even though that should have read "pilot" not "driver". CW 06:26, 21 March 2006 (UTC)

An earlier but unpiloted flight
1848: John Stringfellow made and flew a model airplane that is said to be the first power-driven machine to fly. It flew 120 feet at Chard, England. Just stirring up trouble... The Real Walrus 12:36, 21 March 2006 (UTC)

 * Right for the model powered plane (of course unpiloted). Corrected.PHG 13:44, 21 March 2006 (UTC)

Tynwald Honour

The Tynwald Honour is highest honour that Tynwald, the Manx parliament can bestow on an individual. It is officially presented on Tynwald Day in St John's on the Isle of Man. The Tynwald Honour is to be awarded to those who "have made an outstanding contribution to Manx life over a significant period of time and have demonstrated a selfless commitment in doing so."

The award is not given annually, but only when someone is deemed to meet the criteria by the Tynwald Management Committee.

The Tynwald Honour consists of a sterling silver medal with the three legs of Mann and the motto of the Manx coat of arms (Quocunque Jeceris Stabit) in the Manx language (Raad erbee cheauys oo mee, hassym). The recipient of the Tynwald Honour also receives a vellum certificate and are entitled to use the abbreviation ‘TH’ after their name.

Non-Programmer's Tutorial for Python 2.6/Intro

First things first
So, you've never programmed before. As we go through this tutorial, I will attempt to teach you how to program. There really is only one way to learn to program.  You must read code and write code (as computer programs are often called). I'm going to show you lots of code. You should type in code that I show you to see what happens. Play around with it and make changes. The worst that can happen is that it won't work. When I type in code it will be formatted like this:

That's so it is easy to distinguish from the other text. If you're reading this on the web, you'll notice the code is in color -- that's just to make it stand out, and to make the different parts of the code stand out from each other. The code you enter will probably not be colored, or the colors may be different, but it won't affect the code as long as you enter it the same way as it's printed here.

If the computer prints something out it will be formatted like this:

Hello, World!

(Note that printed text goes to your screen, and does not involve paper. Before computers had screens, the output of computer programs would be printed on paper.)

If you try this program out and you get a syntax error, check and see what version of python you have. If you have python 3.0, you should be using the Non-Programmer's Tutorial for Python 3.0. This article was made for Python 2.6

There will often be a mixture of the text you type (which is shown in bold) and the text the program prints to the screen, which would look like this:

Halt! Who Goes there? Josh You may pass, Josh

(Some of the tutorial has not been converted to this format. Since this is a wiki, you can convert it when you find it.)

I will also introduce you to the terminology of programming - for example, that programming is often referred to as coding. This will not only help you understand what programmers are talking about, but also help the learning process.

Now, on to more important things. In order to program in Python you need the Python software. If you don't already have the Python software go to http://www.python.org/download/ and get the proper version for your platform. Download it, read the instructions and get it installed.

Installing Python
For Python programming you need a working Python installation and a text editor. Python comes with its own editor IDLE, which is quite nice and totally sufficient for the beginning. As you get more into programming, you will probably switch to some other editor like emacs, vi or another.

The Python download page is http://www.python.org/download. The most recent version is 3.1, but any Python 2.x version since 2.2 will work for this tutorial. Be careful with the upcoming Python 3, though, as some major details will change and break this tutorial's examples. A version of this tutorial for Python 3 is at Non-Programmer's Tutorial for Python 3. There are various different installation files for different computer platforms available on the download site. Here are some specific instructions for the most common operating systems:

Linux, BSD and Unix users
You are probably lucky and Python is already installed on your machine. To test it type python on a command line. If you see something like that in the following section, you are set.

If you have to install Python, just use the operating system's package manager or go to the repository where your packages are available and get Python. Alternatively, you can compile Python from scratch after downloading the source code. If you get the source code make sure you compile in the Tk extension if you want to use IDLE.

Mac users
Starting from Mac OS X (Tiger), Python ships by default with the operating system, but you might want to update to the newer version (check the version by starting python in a command line terminal). Also IDLE (the Python editor) might be missing in the standard installation. If you want to (re-)install Python, have a look at the Mac page on the Python download site.

Windows users
Some computer manufacturers pre-install Python. To check if you already have it installed, open command prompt (cmd in run menu) or MS-DOS and type python. If it says "Bad command or file name" you will need to download the appropriate Windows installer (the normal one, if you do not have a 64-bit AMD or Intel chip). Start the installer by double-clicking it and follow the procedure. Python for windows can be downloaded from the official site of python

Interactive Mode
Go into IDLE (also called the Python GUI). You should see a window that has some text like this: Python 2.5.1 (r251:54863, Apr 18 2007, 08:51:08) [MSC v.1310 32 bit (Intel)] on win32 Type "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

****************************************************************  Personal firewall software may warn about the connection IDLE makes to its subprocess using this computer's internal loopback interface. This connection is not visible on any external interface and no data is sent to or received from the Internet. ****************************************************************

IDLE 1.2.1 >>> The  is Python's way of telling you that you are in interactive mode. In interactive mode what you type is immediately run. Try typing  in. Python will respond with. Interactive mode allows you to test out and see what Python will do. If you ever feel you need to play with new Python statements, go into interactive mode and try them out.

Creating and Running Programs
Go into IDLE if you are not already. In the menu at the top, select  then. In the new window that appears, type the following:

Now save the program: select  from the menu, then. Save it as " " (you can save it in any folder you want). Now that it is saved it can be run.

Next run the program by going to  then   (or if you have a older version of IDLE use   then  ). This will output  on the   window.

For a more in-depth introduction to IDLE, a longer tutorial with screenshots can be found at http://hkn.eecs.berkeley.edu/~dyoo/python/idle_intro/index.html

Running Python Programs in Unix
If you are using Unix (such as Linux, Mac OSX, or BSD), if you make the program executable with, and have as the first line: you can run the python program with  like any other command.

Note: In some computer environments, you need to write:

Example for Solaris:

Program file names
It is very useful to stick to some rules regarding the file names of Python programs. Otherwise some things might go wrong unexpectedly. These don't matter as much for programs, but you can have weird problems if you don't follow them for module names (modules will be discussed later).

 * 1) Always save the program with the extension .py. Do not put another dot somewhere else in the file name.
 * 2) Only use standard characters for file names: letters, numbers, dash (-) and underscore (_).
 * 3) White space (" ") should not be used at all (e.g. use underscores instead).
 * 4) Do not use anything other than a letter (particularly no numbers!) at the beginning of a file name.
 * 5) Do not use "non-english" characters (such as ä, ö, <tt>ü</tt>, <tt>å</tt> or <tt>ß</tt>) in your file names, or, even better, do not use them at all when programming.

Using Python from the command line
If you don't want to use Python from the command line, you don't have to, just use IDLE. To get into interactive mode just type  without any arguments. To run a program, create it with a text editor (Emacs has a good Python mode) and then run it with.

Additionally, to use Python within Vim, you may want to visit Using vim as a Python IDE

Where to get help
At some point in your Python career you will probably get stuck and have no clue about how to solve the problem you are supposed to work on. This tutorial only covers the basics of Python programming, but there is a lot of further information available.

Python documentation
First of all, Python is very well documented. There might even be copies of these documents on your computer, which came with your Python installation: * The official Python Tutorial by Guido van Rossum is often a good starting point for general questions.
 * For questions about standard modules (you will learn what this is later), the Python Library Reference is the place to look.
 * If you really want to get to know something about the details of the language, the Python Reference Manual is comprehensive but quite complex for beginners.

Python user community
There are a lot of other Python users out there, and usually they are nice and willing to help you. This very active user community is organised mostly through mailing lists and a newsgroup:
 * The tutor mailing list is for folks who want to ask questions regarding how to learn computer programming with the Python language.
 * The python-help mailing list is python.org's help desk. You can ask a group of knowledgeable volunteers questions about all your Python problems.
 * The Python newsgroup [news:comp.lang.python comp.lang.python] (Google groups archive) is the place for general Python discussions, questions and the central meeting point of the community.

In order not to reinvent the wheel and discuss the same questions again and again, people will appreciate very much if you do a web search for a solution to your problem before contacting these lists!

Canoeing South Africa

Canoeing South Africa is the governing body for the sport of canoeing and kayaking in South Africa.The body is affiliated to the International Canoe Federation (ICF) and the African Canoe Confederation.

History
There seems to be no record of canoeing on the rivers of Southern Africa before the 1930s. By the 1930s, canoe trips were made on rivers like the Orange River and the Vaal River, with the first canoe race on record being made on the Vaal River in 1939.

In 1951 the inaugural Dusi Canoe Marathon, was held, the South African Canoe Federation (SACF) was then established in 1956 to govern the sport of canoe racing. Around the 1960s, kayaks made of fibreglass were introduced, and the sport started expanding. During the same period, Willem van Riet began several river races, beginning with a solo descent of the Orange River: he navigated from Aliwal North westwards to the sea at Oranjemund within 36 days. He then made subsequent trips with descents of the Limpopo River, the Sabie River and later, along with his friend Gordon Rowe, the Cunene River.

In the 1970s, plastic kayaks made their appearance, creating a revolution in kayaking. The understanding of white-water hydraulics grew very fast and waterfalls were being run safely. Commercial river-running also appeared on the scene, with Graeme Addison involved in organising trips for clients using kayaks and rafts, prior to his creation of South Africa’s first commercial operator “The River Men” in 1983. Economic focus later changed in favour of rafting. Graeme Addison in addition, started the Southern African Rivers’ Association (SARA).

I adapted this from information I found there and dunno if it is accurate. --Karl Wick 21:26, 28 Apr 2004 (UTC)

I feel that when we are talking about personal finance we need not talk of lot of assets which might not make sence under the personal finance. Some of them are like brand equity or intellectual property. Though I have added few of them in the list. (Yndesai (talk) 10:49, 16 December 2010 (UTC))

How about some basic bio info that should be out there in newspapers. Is he married> I believe he is. Does he have any children of his own? I have no clue. How about his post-BCR career as a Nurse? When I was a little kid, maybe 11, my older sister was a huge BCR fan and she had his name on one of those tartan scarves. She clipped every article from every teen magazine. Sadly, she passed away a few years back and I no longer have access to those items but many of them listed biographical info. As a founding member of BCR, he should have a larger article. He toured with them up through at least 1993, which was when I saw them in Los Angeles and did a few articles on that tour. COnsidering how popular the band was, we should at least try and get an info box and address some primary info.LiPollis (talk) 07:40, 26 June 2022 (UTC)

Cull-Peppers Dish

Cull-Peppers Dish is a 0.9 ha sinkhole and geological Site of Special Scientific Interest in Dorset, notified in 1989.

The name of the site and that of the nearby Culpeper's Spoon were possibly named after the herbalist Nicholas Culpeper. Locally legends attribute the pits to the devil and another pit near by is named Devil  's or Hell  's Pit.

The site is used in Thomas Hardy's novel The Return of the Native as the place where Mrs Wildeve collects holly for a wreath.

Lesson Summary
Lesson #003: Planning the Movie - Before you begin preproduction, you have to make some decisions.

At the Wikiversity Film School, most of these decisions are made for you. In case you are interested, this is how they were decided.

The Final Product
When you are finished making the movie, you need to have all the elements needed for the distributor. This is a huge undertaking. Most of our planning is to able to give the distributor the required deliverables.

The Purpose of Planning
The goal is to reduce costs later by planning for all the materials needed during the filming, editing, and delivery of this movie. Better planning means lower cost.

How many versions?
We will first make an animatic as part of our early planning.

Then we will make an animated version of our movie

Finally, we will work on a live-action version.

Before we can begin
Before we begin, we need to make decisions such as the frame size and the frame rate. Sounds like a simple decision, right? It is not.

Animation
Even making decisions about the animation are not easy. What style of animation will we use? Will we use programs like LightWave and Maya or will be use programs like Poser and DAZ Studio? And where will we get the models for our movie? With LightWave and Maya, we have to start from scratch. With Poser and DAZ Studio, we can buy a wide selection of models.

Kitchen Party (film)

Kitchen Party is a 1997 film written and directed by Gary Burns (The Suburbanators). The movie cast a number of then-unknown young Canadian actors, including Scott Speedman, Laura Harris, and Tygh Runyan, and was released on September 8, 1997 at the Toronto International Film Festival.

Plot
In the bored suburban atmosphere of a Canadian city, Scott (Scott Speedman) decides to throw a celebratory get-together with friends in his parents' home. Unfortunately, there's a catch: Scott's parents happen to be particularly anal about the direction the carpet fibers lay and the distance from doily to table-edge. This means that the only part of the house that is safe, that is, the only part of the house with no carpeting and therefore no potential mess, is the tiled kitchen.

The festivities begin once the parents go off to a party of their own, leaving Scott and his buddy, Wayne (Tygh Runyan), with a house that would be entirely empty but for Scott's mysterious brother lurking in the basement listening to rock music. Scott's parents at the adult party, which descends into drunken bickering.

At the teen party, soon the girls are arriving, including Scott's girlfriend, Tammy (Laura Harris) — whom he plans on bedding before the night is over — and alcohol, drugs, music, more people, and everything else that characterizes a stereotypical house party follows. This includes calamity, as Scott quickly discovers just how much can go wrong in one night of kitchen partying.

= Wikipedia Genre Study: How to write an article about mammals =

To write these instructions on "How to write an article about mammals", I examined two model articles about mammals that are considered either "good" or "featured" articles on Wikipedia. This led me to find similarities in articles about mammals. These similarities allow me to mirror the characteristics that are needed to write an exemplary article about a mammal, and describe these characteristics to others in the form of instructions. These instructions are intended for others to use to write an exemplary article, specifically about mammals. Each heading includes details that are important to include when writing the article.

Lead Section
All mammal articles should include a lead section. The lead section of the article includes details about it including the size of the animal, special behaviors, where they are found, population, and what they are known for. The humpback whale article is a good example of this, since it includes all of these topics, and is featured on Wikipedia as an exemplary article. The lead should introduce the animal, give a pronunciation if needed, and introduce where it comes from, as seen in the humpback whale article.

Information Box
There should be an information box about the mammal on the right-hand side of the article. This should include more specific information about the mammal, including a picture of the animal in its natural habitat, its conservation status, its scientific classification, binomial name, any subspecies of the animal, synonyms, and a diagram of its range of living. The information box can also include additional pictures and recordings/short videos specific to that animal. The humpback whale and cheetah articles both have information boxes that would be good to use as an example to follow. They include all of the specific and important information that makes the information box useful for readers.

Media
The article should include a variety of photos of the mammal in its natural habitat, and of the animal doing what is described in that section. My analysis of humpback whales found that there are usually 20-30 different media types in an article. These include photos, diagrams, videos, and recordings. There should also be short and appropriate captions to describe the photos that are used. Videos are also appropriate to use to show readers the animal in more detail. Other sources of media such as recordings, graphs, and diagrams can be used to show characteristics of the animal that may be hard to describe only using words. For example, the humpback whale article includes sound recordings of them singing.

Neutrality
Articles on mammals should not be bias. Facts about the mammal should be presented clearly and only come from published outside sources. As it states in the featured article criteria, no personal opinions on the animals should be included, and controversies should include both sides of the argument. Mammals are not normally controversial, but topics like their status in the wild and threats should be presented with facts and not opinions, like the humpback whale article does when it talks about the effects of pollution on them and potential injuries that they can experience.

Length
The length of an article on mammals should be from 5,000 to 10,000 words. Good and featured articles are detailed and are usually more lengthy than other articles, but should only include important information within each topic/heading. However if the mammal does not have much research already on it, then the article may be closer to 5,000 words or less, while more popular mammals with a lot of research and details about them may have a word count closer to 10,000 words, like the featured humpback whale article since they are popular mammals throughout the world.

Structure
The article of a mammal should have around 10-12 headings in the table of contents, including taxonomy, ecology, characteristics, behavior, status/threats, relations/interactions with humans, and references, as seen in the Cheetah and Humpback whale articles. Each heading/topic should include around 4-5 pictures relating to that heading, along with a diagram or recording/video where appropriate. The contents should include facts from appropriate sources, but no excessive information. The main facts that are included in the cheetah article include what the cheetah looks like and where it comes from, its anatomy, its speed, and other topics that describe the main ideas of the cheetah. Following the article contents, there should be references, sources, and external links to outside websites about that mammal.

Research & Sources
Research should be found in scientific books and magazines, scholarly journals, online encyclopedias, or research that is published from universities. These are the types of sources that are used in featured articles about mammals, and these sources would be the ideal place to find research for a well-written mammal article. Scientific research should be found from appropriate and reliable resources, and information should be verified by more than one source. Based off of my analysis of the Cheetah and Humpback Whale articles, about 150 sources should be used in a mammal article, from books, scholarly journals, scientific magazines, and research-based sources. Inline citations would be most effective for the article, with references at the bottom of the page in APA format. Many featured articles include inline citations, which are numbered footnotes with a reference list at the bottom of the article, making it easier for readers to note the sources used.

Well-written
Articles should be well-written by doing appropriate research, organizing the article effectively, and using language specific to the mammal. Specific words may include its scientific name of the mammal, which is its binomial name, or genus and species names. There should be no grammar mistakes or misspelling of words. All information should be correct since it is all from verified outside sources, and it is the expectation of featured articles as stated in their criteria. A well-written article may also include interesting facts to keep the reader interested, such as the cheetah article when they describe how the cheetah's fur is covered with nearly 2,000 solid black spots.

Things that I changed from my previous revision was the format of my instructions, and adding on details to most sections that are specific to my topic. Adding more detail allows my instructions to be more clear and easier for readers to follow.

--SFD

-lead section- describe size of animal, special behaviors that this animal does, where they're found, population, and what they're known for

-include pictures relevant to the topic- pictures in its natural habitat, pictures of the animal doing something- include captions on what the animal is doing

-information box- photo of animal, its scientific classification, binomial name, map of where it can be found around the world, conservation status

-Length: 5,000-10,000 words

-Sources: use around 150 sources; books, scholarly journals, scientific magazines, websites ending in .org

-inline citations and APA format

-also have a source section that puts the sources into categories based on the type of source it is

-Table of contents should include taxonomy, anatomy, characteristics, behaviors, status, feeding, ecology, references

-videos of animal

-based mostly off of research published on other websites

-use other sources of media such as recordings, graphs, diagrams, etc.

Cinnamon

Cinnamon (/ˈsɪnəmən/  SIN-ə-mən ) is a spice obtained from the inner bark of several tree species from the genus Cinnamomum. The term "cinnamon" also refers to its mid-brown colour. Cinnamon is the name for several species of trees and the commercial spice products that some of them produce. All are members of the genus Cinnamomum in the family Lauraceae. Only a few Cinnamomum species are grown commercially for spice. Indonesia and China contribute 76% of the world's production of cinnamon.

Cinnamomum verum is sometimes considered to be "true cinnamon", but most cinnamon in international commerce is derived from related species, also referred to as "cassia". The aroma and flavor of cinnamon derive from its essential oil and principal component, cinnamaldehyde, as well as numerous other constituents, including eugenol.

Cinnamon is used mainly as an aromatic condiment and flavouring additive in a wide variety of cuisines, sweet and savoury dishes, breakfast cereals, snackfoods, and traditional foods.

Cinnamon (/ˈsɪnəmən/  SIN-ə-mən ) is a spice obtained from the inner bark of several evergreen tree species from the genus Cinnamomum. All Cinnamomum species are members of the genus Cinnamomum in the family Lauraceae, but only a few are grown commercially for spice. The several species that are sold as cinnamon come from many different countries, but Indonesia and China contribute to 76% of the world's production of cinnamon. These products vary in color, texture, and taste, but add flavor and aroma into a variety of cuisines and dishes of many countries. The aroma and flavor of cinnamon derive from its essential oil and principal component, cinnamaldehyde, including eugenol, which all makes up 0.5 to 1% of its composition.

Cinnamomum verum is sometimes considered to be "true cinnamon", but most cinnamon in international commerce is derived from related species, also referred to as "cassia". Cinnamon and cassia have historically been used in Egyptian burning rituals, as well as a flavouring agent for wine. It was also used in traditional medicine, but there is no scientific evidence that the consumption of cinnamon has any health benefits.

Coumarin, a significant component of cinnamon, is known to cause liver and kidney damage when consumed in high concentrations. Since it is considered toxic, a maximum recommended tolerable daily intake (TDI) of 0.1 mg of coumarin per kg of body weight should be consumed. Ground cinnamon is a rich source of vitamin K, calcium and iron, while providing moderate amounts of vitamin B6, vitamin E, magnesium, and zinc.

Talk:Tamil/Tamil Script

Why do we have a section on Carnatic Music here? It is totally unrelated to this topic. --<IP_ADDRESS> 06:53, 24 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Teaching step-by-step
I would really like to see lessons teaching how to read and write Tamil step-by-step. It's hard to learn from an overview of letters. Lack of examples is another problem, but even if there were examples afterwards the learning situation would be far from perfect because the student would still have to memorise all letters at once in order to be able to begin practising.

What I have found really useful when learning non-Latin alphabets is a "divide and conquer" method that introduces few letters at a time and offers example words for practise immediately after each letter / each set of letters. What's even better is if those example words are understandable without prior knowledge of the language, that is, international words. For example: names of countries, cities or famous people (if their name isn't significantly different in Tamil than in English), common personal names, Tamil words that have entered English, English words that are used in Tamil, words that both Tamil and English have derived from Greek or Latin... The advantage of using these words is that students will be able to quickly see their own progress and the whole learning process becomes as fascinating as solving a puzzle. See the "Read Write and Pronounce Greek" lessons in the Modern Greek Wikibook for an example, or this external page on Cyrillic.

If you'd like to try this approach for teaching how to write Tamil, I'd be glad to help you, even though I don't know Tamil. I'd like to learn it though and I can read quite a few other scripts. Just create a big list of suitable words on a planning page like Modern Greek/Writing lessons plan, answer me here and I'll try to find an optimal order for letters.

Thanks for your efforts to teach a language that is hard to find in European schools!

Tervita

Tervita was a public company based out of Alberta, Canada that specialized in energy and environmental waste services. It was co-founded by David P. Werklund as Concord Well Servicing in 1979. It became Canadian Crude Separators Corporation (CCS Corp.) in 1984. In 2012, twelve companies under CCS Corporation, to include CCS Midstream Services and Hazco, formed under Tervita.

Profile
The company offered services to include oil field waste disposal, landfill remediation, demolition, metals recycling, water treatment, civil and environmental construction, oil sands exploration, construction drilling and oil spill clean-up. It serves clients with locations throughout Canada and the United States.

History
In 1979, David Werklund and Gordon Vivian started Concord Well Servicing out of Valleyview, Alberta. With an investment from Werklund, CCS was formed in 1984, providing oil waste services. Hazco which provided water and environmental services was formed in 1989. Five years later CCS became a publicly traded company. Over the years Hazco and CCS acquire several energy and environmental waste-related companies. CCS would acquire Hazco in 2004. In 2007, CCS renames itself CCS Corporation and goes private. In 2012, the twelve similar companies combine under CCS Corporation and form Tervita.

In January 2015, the company won a Supreme Court of Canada decision, allowing it to develop a landfill in northeastern British Columbia through the CAD$6 million acquisition of Complete Environmental Inc. The plaintiff argued that Tervita would own all three landfills in northeast British Columbia and therefore it would eliminate competition. The decision was significant as the acquisition was small and it set the framework for future decisions based on market competition in Canada.

On July 19, 2018 Tervita Corporation and Newalta Corporation announced that they closed their previously announced business combination. The merged company operates under the name Tervita Corporation.

On July 2, 2021 Tervita was acquired by Secure Energy Services in an all-stock transaction.

Plain Jane (song)

"Plain Jane" is a song by American rapper ASAP Ferg. The song was released on June 13, 2017, as the lead single from his third studio album, Still Striving (2017). It was produced by Kirk Knight, and it is a hip hop song. The official remix featuring fellow New York City-based rapper Nicki Minaj was released on December 15, 2017. This version peaked at number 26 on the Billboard Hot 100, becoming his second highest-charting single until "Move Ya Hips" in 2020—which also featured Minaj.

Background and composition
"Plain Jane" is one of four tracks released by A$AP Ferg on June 13, 2017, via SoundCloud for TrapLord Tuesdays. Produced by Pro Era's own Kirk Knight, the track's flow and instrumental are heavily influenced by the 1999 song "Slob on My Knob" by Tear Da Club Up Thugs. Ferg reflects his childhood growing up and pays homage to ASAP Yams ("Yamborghini chain, rest in peace to my superior"). He also raps about "eating Rihanna like a panini" ("Please believe me, I see RiRi, I'mma eat it like panini") and suggests having a foursome with his girlfriend, Kendall Jenner, Bella and Gigi Hadid.

Music video
The official music video of the song was released on October 11, 2017. Directed by Bronx director Hidji, it opens with ASAP Ferg standing in an apartment hallway tying his do-rag, with a clip of Juicy J's verse on an unreleased remix of the song playing in the background. It then follows Ferg surrounded by a crew of BMX bike riders, as they ride through Harlem before going to a night club. The video features cameos from cyclists Nigel Sylvester and RRDBlocks, who join Ferg and do tricks, as well as from DRAM and Rihanna.

Remix
A remix to the single was released on December 15, 2017, with a guest appearance from fellow Trinidadian-American rapper Nicki Minaj. The remix was originally meant to be included on Lil Wayne's Dedication 6 mixtape, but after playing it for Ferg, Minaj agreed to make it the official remix instead. Minaj's verse includes references to Tidal, The Notorious B.I.G., Catherine Zeta Jones, and Lupita Nyong'o. Phemza The Kween also freestyled the song. There is an unreleased remix version of the song featuring Juicy J, who shared his verse in May 2018.

Minaj's remix received critical acclaim. Billboard said "Nicki Minaj brought back that hard rap we've been missing from her for years, paying homage to her New York roots and local legend Notorious B.I.G." XXL writes "the female MC delivers some hardcore rhymes and punchlines on the catchy tracks," and Complex noted that, due to Minaj, "one of the best loved songs of the year is about to get even more love".

Chart performance
Following months of hovering around the top 40, "Plain Jane" was propelled by its remix to its peak at number 26 on the Billboard Hot 100, Ferg's second highest entry on the chart. The song has also charted in Canada, at number 30.

Hand dryer

A hand dryer is an electric machine which might make use of a heating element and an air blower to dry the hands after hand washing. It is commonly used in public toilets as a cost-effective alternative to paper towels.

It may either operate with the push of a button or automatically using a sensor.

History
The earliest hand dryer was patented on June 13, 1922 by R.B. Hibbard, D. J. Watrous and J.G. Bassett as a "Dryer Machine" for the Airdry Corporation of Groton New York. This machine was sold as a built in model or freestanding floor unit that consisted of an inverted blower (much like a handheld blow dryer) that was controlled by a floor pedal. Known as "Airdry The Electric Towel", these units were used in restrooms, barbershops and factories. Airdry Corporation moved to Chicago and San Francisco in 1924 to centralize their distribution.

The hand dryer was later popularized in 1948 by George Clemens, who founded World Dryer and invented the Model A, World Dryer’s flagship model. In 1993, Mitsubishi Electric introduced a new type of hand dryer "Jet Towel"(ja:ジェットタオル) that blows jets of air on both sides of the hand, pushing the water off rather than evaporating it.

Costs
Hand dryers have been popular with industries for their apparent economies. According to manufacturers, hand dryers can cut costs by as much as 99.5% (for example a company may spend $2340.00 per year on paper towels, where as the hand dryer expenditure would be as low as $14.00 per year - this will vary according to the cost of paper towels and electricity). They require very little maintenance compared to paper towels, which must be replaced. An added benefit is the removal of the paper waste. Hand dryers represent a larger initial investment, so those responsible for facility management must do a careful cost analysis to determine whether they are cost effective in their building. Costs are always relative to the kWh cost that the facility is charged by its provider. In the UK, this will typically be around 10-12p, the only way to compare costs accurately is to work out the rated energy consumption and divide it by the number of drys the hand dryer is capable of performing back to back in 1 hour, this will give the energy consumption per dry. The world's lowest energy hand dryer uses just 1 watt-hour per dry and is rated at 0.24 kW.

Effect on environment
Due to the reduction in litter and waste in comparison with paper towels, which cannot be recycled, hand dryers are claimed to be better for the environment. By eliminating the need for paper towels, hand dryer manufacturers estimate that over 5 billion paper towels from over 200,000 trees per year can be saved. Another study shows that whereas the majority of the environmental impact of a hand dryer occurs during its use, the environmental impact of paper towels is predominantly in the material production and manufacturing stages. It is estimated that hand dryers use 5% less energy than paper towels in the first year, and 20% less over five years. A World Dryer study of 102 hand dryers installed in public schools in Topeka, Kansas, claimed an annual savings of 34.5 tons of solid waste, 690,000 gallons of water, and 587 trees; another World Dryer study of 153 hand dryers in the Iowa state capitol showed an annual savings of 10.5 tons of solid waste and 176 trees. However, a Dutch study published in March 1995 indicated that there was environmental parity between hand dryers and paper towels as hand drying methods when all factors were taken into consideration.

Hygiene and health

The World Health Organization (WHO) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention both stress the importance of frequent and thorough hand washing followed by their complete drying as a means to stop the spread of bacteria. Bacteria transmit more easily from wet skin than from dry skin. WHO recommends that everyone “frequently clean [their] hands…” and “dry [them] thoroughly by using paper towels or a warm air dryer.” The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention report that, “Both [clean towels or air hand dryers] are effective ways to dry hands.”

A study in 2020 found that hand dryers and paper towels were both found to be equally hygienic hand-drying solutions.

Other research suggests paper towels are much more hygienic than the electric hand dryers found in many public toilets. A review in 2012 concluded that "From a hygiene standpoint, paper towels are superior to air dryers; therefore, paper towels should be recommended for use in locations in which hygiene is paramount, such as hospitals and clinics."

In 2008, a study was conducted by the University of Westminster, London, and sponsored by the paper-towel industry the European Tissue Symposium, to compare the levels of hygiene offered by paper towels, warm-air hand dryers and the more modern jet-air hand dryers. The key findings were:
 * After washing and drying hands with the warm-air dryer, the total number of bacteria was found to increase on average on the finger pads by 194% and on the palms by 254%.
 * Drying with the jet-air dryer resulted in an increase on average of the total number of bacteria on the finger pads by 42% and on the palms by 15%.
 * After washing and drying hands with a paper towel, the total number of bacteria was reduced on average on the finger pads by up to 76% and on the palms by up to 77%.

The scientists also carried out tests to establish whether there was the potential for cross contamination of other public toilet users and the public toilet environment as a result of each type of drying method. They found that:
 * The jet-air dryer, which blows air out of the unit at claimed speeds of 180 m/s, was capable of blowing micro-organisms from the hands and the unit and potentially contaminating other users and the environment up to 2 metres away.
 * Use of a warm-air hand dryer spread micro-organisms up to 0.25 metres from the dryer.
 * Paper towels showed no significant spread of micro-organisms.

In a study conducted by TÜV Produkt und Umwelt GmBH from May 2004 - February 2005, different hand drying methods were evaluated. The following changes in the bacterial count after drying the hands were observed:

Another paper found that air dryers dispersed marker bacteria in a radius of three feet (one metre) and onto the investigator's laboratory coat. Another study found that hot air dryers had the capacity to increase the bacterial count on the skin, and that paper towel drying decreased skin bacterial count. This is corroborated by another study which found that the mechanical action of paper towel drying removed bacteria, something air dryers cannot do.

Doctors at the University of Ottawa claim that "the blowing of warm air may lead to an accelerated dehydration of the skin surface, thereby affecting the viability" of the microorganisms, and that the warm air may "penetrate all the crevices in the skin, whereas absorbent towels may not reach such areas, even though the skin appears dryer".

The European Tissue Symposium, a trade body, has produced a position statement on the hygiene standards of different hand drying systems. This summarises some of the scientific research undertaken.

Dyson (creators of the Dyson Airblade dryer) have countered the claims presented, suggesting that the results were intentionally falsified.

Noise
Many people object to the loud noise that hand dryers make. Typically, installed hand dryers make over 80 decibels of sound at a distance of 10 feet while in operation. It is much louder for the user and may exceed safety limits for children whose ears are at the height of the device. Some units, however, are designed to be quieter at the cost of drying speed.

Reception
Research conducted in 2008 indicated that European consumers much prefer hand towels over hand dryers in public washrooms. 63% of respondents said paper towels were their preferred drying method, while just 28% preferred a hand dryer. Respondents overwhelmingly considered paper towels to offer faster hand drying than electric hand dryers (68% vs 14%). On the whole they also considered paper towels to be the most hygienic form of hand drying in public washrooms (53% vs 44%).

Mining engineering

Mining Engineering is a field that involves many of the other engineering disciplines as applied to extracting and processing minerals from a naturally occurring environment.

The need for mineral extraction and production is an essential activity of any technically proficient society. As minerals are produced from within a naturally occurring environment, disturbance of the environment as a result of mineral production is a given. Modern mining engineers must therefore be concerned not only with the production and processing of mineral commodities, but also with the mitigation of damage or changes to an environment as a result of that production and processing. The two primary types of mine are underground mines and open-pit mines. Minerals that exist mostly underground (eg. coal, gold etc.) are generally recovered using the underground mining process. Minerals like iron ore, limestone, manganese ore, and others are mostly recovered from the surface downwards in opencast mining. Oil sands mining is another example of open-pit mine predominant in Alberta, Canada.

Engineering disciplines that are closely related to mining engineering are:

 * Civil engineering
 * Environmental engineering
 * Geotechnical engineering
 * Hydrotechnical engineering
 * Geological engineering
 * Electrical engineering
 * Structural Engineering

Specialized areas of mining engineering involve extraction of minerals from underwater mines, seawater, in-situ retorting of rock, and underground gasification.

User:Vuara/Artcyclopedia

http://www.artcyclopedia.com/

About the Artcyclopedia Our mission is to become the definitive and most effective guide to museum-quality fine art on the Internet: definitive: We have compiled a comprehensive index of every artist represented at hundreds of museum sites, image archives, and other online resources. We have started out by covering the biggest and best sites around, and have links for most well-known artists to keep you surfing for hours. Update February/2002: We have now indexed 1200 arts sites, and offer more than 32,000 links to an estimated 100,000 works by 7,500 renowned artists.

most effective: The Artcyclopedia's custom search engine is already the fastest way to search the Net for information about fine artists. Period.

museum-quality: There are scads of artists with home pages on the Web, many of whom are extremely talented. But we can't list every site, and we really don't want to set ourselves up as arbiters of who produces "quality" art and who doesn't - making such a judgment is impossible over the Internet in any case. We feel that fairest approach is to rely on the worldwide network of museum professionals to make that call. So our general policy is, if an artist is in an arts museum collection, then he or she is qualified to be listed in our database. See our Information for Artists page for more specific information.

What is and is not in the Artcyclopedia's database? We only provide references to sites on the World Wide Web where artists' works can be viewed online. For calendars of real-world museum exhibits, try a resource such as Gallery Guide Online, or Traditional Fine Arts Online, or the Art Museum Network's ExCalendar, all of which seem to do an excellent job. The vast majority of the fine artists in our database specialize in painting and sculpture. We do include other artistic media where possible. Examples of these types of media are: photography (e.g. Ansel Adams, Berenice Abbott, Man Ray, Henri Cartier-Bresson, Dorothea Lange, Alfred Stieglitz, and Cindy Sherman) decorative arts (e.g. Carl Fabergé, René Lalique, and Louis Comfort Tiffany) installation art (e.g. Dan Flavin and Ed Kienholz) video, digital and web-based art (e.g. Jenny Holzer, Bill Viola, and Nam June Paik) naïve art/folk art/outsider art (e.g. Edward Hicks and Grandma Moses) architecture (e.g. Frank Lloyd Wright and Andrea Palladio) Note that we are primarily oriented to searching by artist name, although we intend to add more and more access by artistic movement, nation, timeline and medium. At the moment we do not have entries for artworks by unknown artists. This includes works with such attributions as "follower of", "workshop of", or "school of" given artists. We do have entries for certain notable individual artists whose names have been lost (for example, the Master of the Saint Bartholomew Altarpiece). Who is behind this project? The Artcyclopedia was created by John Malyon, an IT professional, web developer, and entrepreneur currently living in Calgary, Canada. Here is a brief overview of John's background:

17 years in the software industry 10 years project leader roles 9 years data modeling and online interface design first exposed to the Internet through the WELL, the legendary online community, of which he was a member for several years in the early nineties fine arts webmaster for 3 years sometime writer (one professional credit to date: At the Robot Olympics, published in the Whole Earth Review, Spring 1992) John's current project is to develop a system for commercializing the Artcyclopedia in such a way as to add value for visitors (by providing them with additional useful and relevant information), rather than subtracting value (e.g. through indiscriminate use of banners).

Frequently Asked Questions

Why isn't artist X listed on your site? Can you tell me everything about artist X? How much is this etching/edition by artist X worth? How much is this painting by artist X worth? I think I own a valuable painting. What should I do?

Why isn't artist X listed on your site? Keep in mind that our site is an Internet search tool, not a forum for assessing which artists are "museum-quality" and which aren't. If an artist's work doesn't happen to be viewable online at one of the sites we have indexed, then they won't be in our database. If you want to suggest an artist for inclusion, please look over our guidelines. Note that we already have a backlog of suggestions, and adding links in this way is a rather time-consuming process. Can you tell me everything about artist X? Pretty much everything we can tell you about an artist we put on the artist pages. If you need more than is available at any of the sites the Artcyclopedia links to, I suggest heading to Alta Vista and Google, which I find to be the largest and most effective search engines. Another excellent place to research fine artists is the Grove Dictionary of Art site. It's a pay site, but as of this writing you can still register for a 24-hour free trial. You can also find the print edition of the Grove in better libraries. For better-known artists, you'll probably find entire books about them there, or within the inter-library loan system. How much is this etching/edition by artist X worth? Valuation of prints and etchings is very complicated, and I don't have any resources in this area whatsoever. I recommend finding a gallery who has some knowledge of the field and paying them for an appraisal - the cost is usually reasonable. For collectible artists, a site like Ebay may also give you some insight into the real-world value of your work. How much is this painting by artist X worth? Here are some tools to help you come up with some idea of what your original work of art might be worth. Prices for works by a given artist vary widely and wildly for many reasons, including: auction prices are usually lower than gallery "list" prices size: larger is better, within reason medium: oil paintings are almost invariably the most valuable, followed distantly by watercolors, pastels, drawings, etc. period: is it from the artist's best period? subject matter: is it characteristic of the artist's most sought-after work? if a realistic work: does it have a girl or a horse in it? if an abstract work: do the dominant colors match common shades of sofas and drapes? provenance: has it been in the Rothschild family collection since they bought it from the artist 200 years ago (good), or does it have no traceable lineage before, say, 1946 (very very bad)? certainty of authentication: even if the work is signed by the artist it could be a forgery, or it could be a genuine work from the period on which the signature has been forged where the auction took place, geographically: is there a natural market for the artist's work? uncontrollable factors: rain, full moon, sunspot activity, etc. lastly, (and sometimes least) the actual artistic merit of the work Keeping the above in mind, it is possible to look up auction records in the reference section of your local library, to get a general idea of what an artist's works fetch. There are several annual publications which list hundreds of thousands of sales results. The public library I use, which is good but by no means world class, has three sets by different publishers. One good online resource is Artcult, which has a freely accessible database of price ranges for many artists. And if you are willing to pay, you can get full auction results online at several sites, including artnet.com and artprice.com. I think I own a valuable artwork. What should I do? First, what not to do: do NOT clean it, or reframe it, or restore it, by yourself. If it's on paper, do not give it too much light and never let it receive direct sunlight. And resist the temptation to remove layers of paint to see if the artist painted the women naked under their clothes. (I have recently discovered a nice page at the North Carolina Museum of Art site which discusses conservation issues related to the display, storage, and transport of fine art.) Now, if you think you have a valuable work of art, here's what to do: Take a trip to the library to familiarize yourself with the artist's oeuvre and find out how much his works are typically worth (see above for more on this). This will help you determine how much is would be sensible to spend on the next few steps. Have the work authenticated and appraised. Insure the work as soon as possible. Get advice from a professional conservator. Sell the work, if you wish. Now, if you have reason to believe you own a valuable work of art, you should probably have it appraised. Sothebys and Christie's offer this service, as do many galleries. You can also find professional fine art appraisers in the Yellow Pages (under "appraisers" where I live). They should also be able to advise about authentication of your work. +++

September 27
This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on September 27, 2019.

Mashood Alam

 * Mashood Alam → Aladdin (2019 film) (talk · links · [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Mashood_Alam&action=history history] · stats)     [ Closure:  ]

Not mentioned in the target. An internet search would suggest that Mashood Alam is the name of a Pakistani actor, but I wasn't able to find any mention of association with the new Aladdin film. signed,Rosguill talk 17:18, 27 September 2019 (UTC)
 * He is credited for being part of Aladdin film. In addition to this, has some short movies on his credit. --Spasage (talk) 19:24, 27 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Could you provide some evidence that he's associated with the Aladdin film? If it's a trivial role (i.e. not enough to be due mention in the article) then we still shouldn't have the redirect. His work on other films is irrelevant because we're not judging his general notability here, we're judging the suitability of this one redirect––if anything, him being notable for other roles is an argument against this redirect because in that case we should just create an article. signed,Rosguill talk 19:57, 27 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Here are few references. He is from Pakistan and worked in Hollywood movies. He also has IMDB entry. --Spasage (talk) 16:29, 4 October 2019 (UTC)

 * Delete - Performer-to-performance redirects are inherently problematic because a single performer can perform in multiple performances, and there needs to be a compelling reason to link them to just one of their performances. This one is relatively new and has no critical page history or incoming links. -- Black Falcon (talk) 18:01, 29 September 2019 (UTC)

Draft:Interior penance
 Closed discussion, see full discussion. Result was:

 * The result of the discussion was delete , though I'll happily issue a WP:REFUND if someone wants to work on the draft after all. Since the draft was declined based on the topic already being covered in mainspace, that seems unlikely. --BDD (talk) 20:19, 8 October 2019 (UTC)

 * Draft:Interior penance → Sacrament of Penance (talk · links · [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Draft:Interior_penance&action=history history] · stats)     [ Closure:  ]

Recommend the article/redirect be deleted. The article has not been edited since December 2018 when it was changed to a redirect after a declined submission in November 2018. It is not eligible for speedy deletion under WP:G13 as it is a redirect: "Redirects are exempt from G13 deletion." Archer1234 (talk) 12:59, 27 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Comment: What reason is there for deletion? Geolodus (talk) 15:19, 27 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Speedily delete: cross-namespace redirect. --Soumyabrata (talk • subpages) 17:45, 29 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete, or restore draft and handle as appropriate. Declined drafts should not be redirected to mainspace. No one is going to search for a draft, so a redirect is inherently useless. -- Black Falcon (talk) 18:03, 29 September 2019 (UTC)

These redirects refer to a file format (actually known as “SPC” with no numerals) which is used for music ripped from SNES games, but the target article never mentions or describes such a format; the SPC700 is a chip on the system’s audio processor, but the article contains precisely one mention of the term, in an infobox listing only its clock rate. —<IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 01:23, 27 September 2019 (UTC) edited 01:35, 27 September 2019 (UTC)

Dialect names
The dialects mentioned should probably be called by their more common English names, Cantonese and Mandarin. Otherwise it will be confusing. The Jade Knight 08:00, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

I agree, so I changed it, hope nobody minds ;D <IP_ADDRESS> 09:29, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

Course Planning
I thought it's not a bad idea if we structure the two courses, Mandarin and Cantonese, similarly to a University course. Then at least it has some goals and a difference to just any old course. I propose around 24 lessons or however many weeks are in one academic year, and then seperate (but connected) lessons for reading, writing, listening and speaking, as that is how it is taught at most Universities. I will register a sername soon. <IP_ADDRESS> 09:50, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

2014 Danish speedway season

Individual Championship
The 2014 Danish Individual Speedway Championship was the 2014 edition of the Danish Individual Speedway Championship. The final was staged over two rounds, at Holstebro and Fjelsted, and was won by Niels Kristian Iversen. It was the third time Iversen had won the national title, having also been victorious in 2012 and 2013.

The competition started with two semi finals, with four progressing to the final series from each. The final series was held over two rounds, with the top four scorers from the two rounds then competing in a Grand Final. The points from the Grand Final were then added to the total score and the overall winner was the rider with the most total points.
