Firth

Firth is a word in the English and Scots languages used to denote various coastal waters in the United Kingdom, predominantly within Scotland. In the Northern Isles, it more often refers to a smaller inlet. It is linguistically cognate to Scandinavian fjord and fjard (all from Proto-Germanic *ferþuz), with the original meaning of "sailable waterway". The word has a more constrained sense in English. Bodies of water named "firths" tend to be more common on the Scottish east coast, or in the southwest of the country, although the Firth of Clyde is an exception to this. The Highland coast contains numerous estuaries, straits, and inlets of a similar kind, but not called "firth" (e.g. the Minch and Loch Torridon); instead, these are often called sea lochs. Before about 1850, the spelling "Frith" was more common.

A firth is generally the result of ice age glaciation and is very often associated with a large river, where erosion caused by the tidal effects of incoming sea water passing upriver has widened the riverbed into an estuary. Demarcation can be rather vague. The Firth of Clyde is sometimes thought to include the estuary as far upriver as Dumbarton, but the Ordnance Survey map shows the change from river to firth occurring off Port Glasgow. In navigation terms, the dredged River Clyde Channel for shipping meets the Firth of Clyde Channel at the Tail of the Bank, where the river crosses a sandbar off Greenock as the estuary widens at the junction to the Gare Loch. Locally, the river can be described as extending even further west to Gourock point.

However, some firths are exceptions. The Cromarty Firth on the east coast of Scotland, for example, resembles a large loch with only a relatively small outlet to the sea and the Solway Firth and the Moray Firth are more like extremely large bays. The Pentland Firth is a strait rather than a bay or an inlet.

Firths on the west coast of Scotland (from north to south)

 * Firth of Lorn (connects with the Moray Firth via the Great Glen lochs and Caledonian Canal)
 * Lochs adjoining the Firth: Loch Lochy, Loch Linnhe, Loch Leven, Loch Oich.
 * Places: Oban, Fort William.
 * Islands: Isle of Mull, Lismore and Kerrera.
 * Firth of Clyde (continuing from the River Clyde estuary)
 * Sea lochs adjoining the Firth of Clyde: Gare Loch, Loch Long, Holy Loch, Loch Striven, Loch Riddon off the Kyles of Bute, Loch Fyne and Campbeltown Loch.
 * Places: Helensburgh, Port Glasgow, Greenock, Gourock, Dunoon, Rothesay, Wemyss Bay, Largs, Brodick, Ardrossan, Troon, Ayr, Girvan and Campbeltown. Note that Glasgow is at the tidal limit of the River Clyde, and Clydebank, the Erskine Bridge and Dumbarton are on the river estuary as it widens out towards Port Glasgow.
 * Islands: Bute, Cumbrae, Arran
 * In Scottish Gaelic, the Firth of Clyde is treated as two bodies, with the landward end being called Linne Chluaidh (meaning the same as the English), while the area around the south of Arran, Kintyre and Ayrshire/Galloway is An Linne Ghlas.
 * Solway Firth (inlet with the rivers Eden, Esk and Nith).
 * The Firth is off the Solway Coast.
 * Rough Firth
 * Places: Carlisle, England on the River Eden, Annan and Gretna, both in Scotland. Luce Bay, Wigtown, St Bees, Aspatria

Firths on the east coast of Scotland (from north to south)

These are connected to, or form part of, the North Sea.

 * Dornoch Firth (northernmost of the eastern firths)
 * Places: Dornoch, Dornoch Firth Bridge (road bridge, 1/2 mi long), Bonar Bridge, Kyle of Sutherland, Tain, Portmahomack on Tarbat Ness (fishing village facing west to northwest on the east coast).
 * Rivers: Oykel, Cassley, Shin and Carron
 * Headland: Tarbat Ness.
 * Cromarty Firth (loch-type firth with relatively narrow opening to the sea). The Firth runs out into the Moray Firth.
 * Places: Cromarty, Dingwall, Invergordon.
 * Rivers: Conon, Orrin, Rusdale, Glass, Alness.
 * Moray Firth and Beauly Firth (a loch-type firth) connected with the Firth of Inverness. The Firth of Inverness is rarely identified on modern maps, but forms a connection via the River Ness, Loch Ness and the other lochs of the Great Glen and stretches of the Caledonian Canal with the Firth of Lorne on the west coast of Scotland.
 * Places on the Moray Firth: Inverness, Nairn, Fortrose, Fort George.
 * Headlands: Whiteness Head, Chanonry Point, Alturlie Point.
 * Places on the Beauly Firth: Beauly.
 * Firth of Tay (estuary of the River Tay).
 * Places: Perth, Dundee, Monifieth, Tayport, Newport on Tay, Newburgh, Fife.
 * Rivers: Tay, Earn.
 * Headland: Buddon Ness.
 * Islands: Mugdrum Island
 * Firth of Forth (estuary of the River Forth)
 * Places: Edinburgh, Dunfermline, Kirkcaldy, Grangemouth, Rosyth, North Queensferry, South Queensferry, Musselburgh, Crail, Cellardyke, Anstruther, Pittenweem, St Monans, Elie, Earlsferry, Longniddry, Aberlady, Gullane, Dirleton, North Berwick. It is spanned by the Queensferry Crossing, 2,700 m long; the Forth Road Bridge, 2,512 m long; and the Forth Bridge, 2,498 m long.
 * Rivers: Forth, River Avon, Water of Leith, River Almond, River Esk, River Leven
 * Islands: Bass Rock, Craigleith, Eyebroughy, Fidra, Inchcolm, Inchgarvie, Inchkeith, Inchmickery, Isle of May, Lamb

Firths on the north coast of Scotland

 * The Pentland Firth. This is a strait between the Scottish mainland and the Orkney Islands, and forms a link between the Atlantic Ocean and North Sea.
 * Places: John o' Groats, Canisbay, Gills Bay, Rattar (all Caithness)
 * Headlands: Brims Ness, Brough Ness, Duncansby Head, Dunnet Head
 * Islands: Hoy, Pentland Skerries, Swona, South Ronaldsay, South Walls (all generally considered to be part of Orkney); Stroma

Firths in the Northern Isles

The Northern Isles were part of Norway until the 15th century, and retain many Norse names. In Shetland in particular, "firth" can refer to smaller inlets, although geo, voe and wick are as common. In Orkney, "wick" is common.

 * Orkney Islands
 * Bay of Firth (Firth, Orkney)
 * North Ronaldsay Firth
 * Stronsay Firth
 * Westray Firth
 * Wide Firth
 * Shetland Islands (Mainland)
 * Lax Firth (Laxfirth) & Cat Firth near Nesting & Whiteness
 * Collafirth/Colla Firth (two places of this name)
 * Firths Voe, Firth
 * Gon Firth
 * Olna Firth
 * Olnes Firth
 * Quey Firth
 * Unie Firth
 * Ura Firth
 * Burra Firth/Burrafirth (a number of Shetland places with this name)
 * Effirth
 * Shetland North Isles: Yell, Unst
 * Whale Firth
 * Burrafirth

Other similar waters in Scotland
In the Scottish Gaelic language, linne is used to refer to most of the firths above; it is also applied to the Sound of Sleat, Crowlin Sound, Cuillin Sound, Sound of Jura, Sound of Raasay, and part of Loch Linnhe.

The following is a selection of other bodies of water in Scotland which are similar to various firths, but which are not termed such –
 * West coast
 * Loch Broom (fjord), Loch Eriboll (fjord), Loch Hourn (fjord), Loch Tarbert, Jura (fjord), Loch Torridon (fjord); Loch Sween, a fjord, The Minch (Strait, "Skotlandsfjörð" ("Scotland's fjord/firth") in Old Norse. )
 * East coast
 * Eden Mouth (estuary, near St Andrews); Findhorn Bay, Montrose Basin (estuary/lagoon with narrow entrance); Tweed mouth (estuary, very near Scottish border)

Likewise, in the Northern Isles, the words "firth" and "sound" are often used arbitrarily or interchangeably. Bluemull Sound for example, is very similar to some of the firths in the Shetland Islands.

English firths

 * Solway Firth (inlet with the rivers Eden, Esk and Nith).
 * The Firth is off the Solway Coast.
 * Places: Carlisle, England on the River Eden, Annan and Gretna, both in Scotland. Luce Bay, Wigtown, St Bees, Aspatria

Firths outside Britain

 * Flensburg Firth, an inlet forming part of the border between Denmark and Germany
 * Kiel Firth, an inlet between Danish Wold and Wagria that forms part of Kiel Bay
 * The Firth of Thames is a bay at the mouth of the Waihou River (formerly named the Thames) in New Zealand
 * Firth of Tay, Antarctica. Named in conjunction with neighbouring Dundee Island, as the original Firth of Tay adjoins Dundee.

The merger was not an appropriate edit.

1. Three votes doth not a consensus make, particularly when the original editor and probably other major contributors were not notified.

The merger ignored the highly appropriate comment by Beanmf
 * Comment - We might take Gettysburg, PA as a guide. There is a short entry there for the Civil War battle, but the battle core has its own entry. I would say that perhaps this belongs in a subsection of "The Southern Theater of the American Revolutionary War" or "History of South Carolina" which are both too short. The importance of the Marion's efforts and its relevance to the popular movie "The Patriot" suggests we retain the content somewhere. I think it unwise to lose it in just another town history.--Beanmf 13:48, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

2. The historical article is about Williamsburg, not Williamsburg County. Historical Williamsburg was one of the original townships, which became the mother of numerous counties. It is more nearly analagous to the modern Pee Dee region.

3. It makes the Williamsburg County page top-heavy with history of the larger region. And although what came to be known as Marion's Men, or Marion's Brigade was originally the Williamsburg Militia, they also served beyond the region's boundries. The historical simply cannot be constricted to apply only to modern Williamsburg County. Pollinator 04:09, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

I have found content for some of Brule County, South Dakota's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "LCSD": From Lawrence County, South Dakota: Lawrence County SD Google Maps (accessed 5 February 2019) From Lyman County, South Dakota: Lyman County SD Google Maps (accessed 5 February 2019) From Lake County, South Dakota: Lake County SD Google Maps (accessed 5 February 2019) From Lincoln County, South Dakota: Lincoln County SD Google Maps (accessed 5 February 2019)

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 23:58, 1 April 2019 (UTC)

Which county is really the poorest in the US?
I know Buffalo was the poorest county a while ago, but Ziebach County is now (there's a valid reference). That would also mean the list of lowest income counties needs to be updated... --Fustigate314159 (talk) 03:44, 16 February 2011 (UTC)

Subtle Deception

Probably should have put the various links here to begin with; they likely won't count as full-fledged references. Hopefully, though, these will at least serve as exculpatory evidence to the Wiki police before they pounce on the names and delete them on grounds that they were manufactured out of whole cloth.

[They also confirm the name Mason(')s Corner.] Doesn't count as a reference, of course; but this informal observation is at least lent (a tiny bit of) credence here here and here. Unfortunately my skills as a historical researcher are woefully inadequate; could find no other attestation. The task is considerably complicated by the fact of the eponymous road that runs through the area. --2603:6081:8004:DD5:6451:2AC4:EB73:1BE (talk) 02:18, 20 November 2021 (UTC)

Talk:Arlington County, Virginia

new municipalities law
I deleted the reference to the City of Fairfax because it is misleading, and technically incorrect. It would be a lot more correct for the WP article on Arlington County to just say something like "Arlington County has no Incorporated towns and under the current state laws, no new incorporated towns can be formed in the densely populated county" and leave it at that.

I hope I didn't offend anyone by deleting that sentence in the Arlington article. No offense was intended by that action.

I researched the Code of Virginia to make sure about these clarifications, but make no claim to be a lawyer. I no longer lobby the General Assembly, but I did so for a few years on transportation issues.

Here are some clarifications (from a layman):

1. Virginia's independent cities are not "within a county" in terms of the state laws. I realize that on the surface that defies common sense, but while they may be entirely surrounded by a county, such as City of Fairfax and City of Falls Church, they are not within it in the legal sense.

Example: The state law is that the City of Roanoke is not within Roanoke County although physically it is completely surrounded by it. It gets better: The City of Richmond is the county seat of Henrico County, but is not within it legally.

2. Virginia's incorporated towns are always legally within a county. You cannot have a town outside of a county or within an independent city. Incorporated towns share certain constitutional officers with the host county (IE sheriff, courts). Some cities and counties have agreements to share some of these functions, but no town has a sheriff or a court system.

3. Cities have no threat of a new town being formed within them. However, counties in general do. Any section of a county attaining the required density can petition to become a municipality (read=town) if it meets a definition of more than 1000 per sq mile and over a certain total number.

4. Some heavily urbanized counties, like Arlington and Henrico, wanted to be sure no new towns were formed within them, possibly due to an actual threat, so they got that special legislation passed which was narrowly limited to them by the density definition. That type of wording is a veiled way to get special interest bills through the General Assembly without naming the special interest target. A very common political maneuver often missed by opponents and the news media. Since only Arlington and Henrico Counties seemed to have been was originally impacted by the law when it became effective, it is likely that the legislation was a method for one of those (or both) of these counties to gain the same protection as cities already enjoyed without converting its charter to legally become a city. I don't know Arlington politics, but there may have been some type of this threat somewhere there. In Henrico, the west end is almost built out, and the whole county is so narrow in the middle (less than 3 miles at one point) that creating a town could have been a method of moving towards a new city, thereby blocking future annexations when the current moratorium ends. I believe that the eastern end of the county which is still fairly rural would be the big loser on such a situation. They want to keep the county intact.

5. Without such legislation, new towns could be formed in portions of a county with the required density by petitions of the citizens. Not only does creation of a new municipality (read= town) within a county mean a sharing of taxing power in an existing county, but has historically been a stepping stone to independent city status, which really clobbers the county when it happens.

6. Arlington County must be comfortable that the City of Alexandria would not attempt an annexation, probably because the county is small enough that it could argue that nothing would be left, and also because it is built out, negating the legal basis for annexation, which is vacant and with room for a city to expand. the same basically protects Fairfax County from Alexandria and the independent cities physically landlocked within it. The adjacent areas are built out. Annexation has nothing to do with the will of the people, and everything to do with the need of a city to grow. It is one of Virginia's biggest obstacles to regional cooperation. However, without it, there is little way for cities to get a fair shake, as the state consistently underfunds their needs (which are greater per citizen) in comparison to most counties.

7. Virginiaa's independent cities are exempt from formation of new town or annexation suits. So the existing highly urbanized counties want(ed) the same protection the cities already have: no new towns in our borders. They would also like to see the annexation moratorium for big cities extended.

8. If you are a county, why not just convert to becoming a city? Presto, no risk of new towns or annexation by your neighbors. This was done in a big way in the Hampton Roads area between 1952 and 1976. When it was all over, 5 counties, 1 town, and 3 independent cities disappeared, replaced by 8 independent cities, no towns, and no counties in the same area. The total physical territory only expanded a few square miles, as Poquoson became an incorporated town, and then converted to a city and then exited York County. Now, even before the current moratorium, no one can annex anyone else. Their increased tax rates reflect the loss of state funding all that has cost them. However, the areas around annexation-oriented Norfolk and Portsmouth are safe from them, and both, especially Portsmouth are screaming about that burden and the inability to expand their tax base in the usual way (IE just annex more of a neighboring county).

9. The downside for Arlington (or Henrico) to convert itself to a city is that you get less state money and have to do more local services. Arlington as a county gets a nice appropriation for its streets and roads which would be lost, as does Henrico, under the old grandfathered law. If they became cities, the money for roads and streets would go by the current city formula, which is much much less.

10. Arlington and Henrico are the only counties with this big money difference in roads funding. All cities have to do their own, and get a much less general stipend from the state. No other counties or any towns have to do any, nor are they allowed to. Rtaher, under the 1932 law, VDOT does it all, and is careful to keep the numbers and its choice of how to spend the money as blurred and outside of the ability of the localities to directly control as possible. It isn't just money, it's also a control factor.

11. The only reason any of this should be mentioned in the Arlington article is to explain why Rosslyn, Ballston, etc are populated enough and dense enough to become incorporated towns except for the law mentioned.

If any of this interests you more, especially the Hampton Roads situation, you may want to read the article Lost Counties, Cities and Towns of Virginia. At the end, an excellent book on the merger politics is listed. All but 2 of the conversions were completed when it was written in 1972.

 * This may be besides the point of the edit in question -- much less 16 years later, oops -- but my understanding is that Fairfax County, Virginia has a form of government, urban county executive form, that expressly prohibits incorporation within it.  Whereas Arlington does not.  So the remaining puzzler for me is why it didn't just do the same, but that may not be pertinent to the article.  109.255.211.6 (talk) 00:18, 9 March 2021 (UTC)

Alexandria County, Virginia alt-title?
There's a redirect from Alexandria County, Virginia to here, for reasons mentioned in the article. Should that be bolded as an alt-title? In the lede, or later? Or would that be undue prominence and potentially confusing? 109.255.211.6 (talk) 05:56, 7 March 2021 (UTC)

 * I agree that it could be in the lead to prevent perplexity, but at the bottom, as it's a digression from overview-level topics. "Until 1920, the county was known as Alexandria County." On the other hand, I can imagine a user wanting to look up Alexandria and typing "Alexandria County" under the impression that today's Alexandria, like Arlington, is a county. So we could kill two birds with one stone by adding a hatnote at the top. "Alexandria County redirects here. For the city of Alexandria, Virginia, see Alexandria, Virginia."

Virginia
This also does with Lewis and Clark.

New Question: I found an error in the intro to the Caroline County section. I edited the appropriate content in the body of the section already, but I can't find a way to correct the mistake in the intro. Can anyone advise me? Kctweedy73 (talk) 23:30, 22 August 2009 (UTC) kctweedy73@gmail.com

How come?
How come no one is commenting? Just Curious. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.23.92.22 (talk) 16:53, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

Just so you know, Carroll County isn't dry anymore!

Actually, Carroll County is still dry. Alcohol can be served, however, within the town limits of Hillsville.

Move land/county changes after 1703
Prince George County was formed in 1703, and Charles City County from then on consisted only of land north of the river. I do not think that a table devoted to the development of Southside Virginia needs to be featured in this article. Readers do not want to read here about all the development of Southside VA springing from the divvying up of Prince George County. I am moving most of that material to the articles on PG County and Southside Virginia; other portions may be assigned to counties drawn from it, but likely already is included in those articles. There has been way too much content devoted to Southside development in this article, burying the focus on Charles City County. Parkwells (talk) 14:28, 21 March 2017 (UTC)

breaking off other counties and cities
There is a missing city in this section, and I can't find it in the linked reference or in the history of the article. I believe this city to be Colonial Heights. Quoting the article and bolding the error: "Since then, five counties: Prince George County, Brunswick, Dinwiddie, Amelia, and Prince Edward; and three independent cities: Hopewell, Petersburg and ; have been formed from the original territory of Charles City Shire." — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aphoid (talk • contribs) 14:56, 1 December 2020 (UTC)

Undue weight on roads?
This entry has a lot of detailed information on roads, perhaps too much. Editors might consider adding more content on other aspects of the county.Parkwells (talk) 19:52, 16 August 2010 (UTC)

 * Also, editors need to keep their sense of history and time when editing articles - old roads did not "follow the path" of newer ones, an error corrected more than once in this article. Newer roads were often built along the path of older routes: Indian trails, colonial roads, etc. Bridges may cross rivers or roads parallel them; the rivers were transportation corridors that preceded the modern roads.Parkwells (talk) 21:08, 16 August 2010 (UTC)

Radio programming

Radio programming is the process of organising a schedule of radio content for commercial broadcasting and public broadcasting by radio stations.

History
The original inventors of radio, from Guglielmo Marconi's time on, expected it to be used for one-on-one wireless communication tasks where telephones and telegraphs could not be used because of the problems involved in stringing copper wires from one point to another, such as in ship-to-shore communications. Those inventors had no expectations whatever that radio would become a major mass media entertainment and information medium earning many millions of dollars in revenues annually through radio advertising commercials or sponsorship. These latter uses were brought about after 1920 by business entrepreneurs such as David Sarnoff, who created the National Broadcasting Company (NBC), and William S. Paley, who built Columbia Broadcasting System (CBS). These broadcasting (as opposed to narrowcasting) business organizations began to be called network affiliates, because they consisted of loose chains of individual stations located in various cities, all transmitting the standard overall-system supplied fare, often at synchronized agreed-upon times. Some of these radio network stations were owned and operated by the networks, while others were independent radio owned by entrepreneurs allied with the respective networks. By selling blocks of time to advertisers, the medium was able to quickly become profitable and offer its products to listeners for free, provided they invested in a radio receiver set.

The new medium had grown rapidly through the 1930s, vastly increasing both the size of its audience and its profits. In those early days, it was customary for a corporation to sponsor an entire half-hour radio program, placing its commercials at the beginning and the end. This is in contrast to the pattern which developed late in the 20th century in both television and radio, where small slices of time were sold to many sponsors and no corporation claimed or wanted sponsorship of the entire show, except in rare cases. These later commercials also filled a much larger portion of the total program time than they had in the earlier days.

In the early radio age, content typically included a balance of comedy, drama, news, music and sports reporting. Variety radio programs included the most famous Hollywood talent of the day. During the 1920s, radio focused on musical entertainment, the Grand Ole Opry, has been focused on broadcasting country music since it began in 1925. Radio soap operas began in the U.S. in 1930 with Painted Dreams. Lørdagsbarnetimen, a Norwegian children's show, with its premiere in 1924 interrupted only by the Second World War, was the longest running radio show in the world until it ceased production in 2010.

In the early 1950s, television programming eroded the popularity of radio comedy, drama and variety shows. By the late 1950s, radio broadcasting took on much the form it has today – strongly focused on music, talk, news and sports, though drama can still be heard, especially on the BBC.
