Hi. I probably wouldn't have moved Cheltenham - if you look here you will see quite a lot of pags linking to it there, and they appear to be all talking about the English town  (and of course they will all need fixing to link to Cheltenham, Gloucestershire now.  Are any of the other Cheltenhams as big?  Morwen 19:55, 1 Jun 2004 (UTC)

Bad faith deletion of new article on Shefa'
Eliezer (under a new name) is trying to delete articles on real organizations. The claim he made on the Shefa Network page is false and disingenuous. The Shefa Network is a real group within Conservative Judaism, and in fact is already larger than many organizations that Wikipedia already has many articles on.

The Shefa Network already has several hundred members, they have their own journal, their own website, they have already had two major conferences, and two more conferences are planned soon. Yet Eliezer and a friend of his are trying to delete its article? Eliezer has refused to even discuss the issue on the article's discussion page, despite the fact that I am trying to engage in civil discourse. Eliezer and his friend haven't even tried to see if the group exists.

Note the timestamps; they tried to delete the article within minutes of its creation. They obviously didn't even try to read the group's official website, or read its academic journal. They certainly never went to any of Shefa's conferences! They also never joined Shefa's e-mail list and asked anyone about the group. Look, attempting to delete a page without even trying to ascertain the facts is clearly against Wikipedia policy. And doing so while refusing to engage in dialogue is editing in bad faith, by definition.

If someone somehow still doubts that this organization exists, I can arrange for an interview with its founder, or its journal editor, webmaster, and members of this organization who have been to Shefa's academic conferences. RK 14:04, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

Problem in setting up merge templates in your proposed Conservative-Judaism related mergers
Hello, it looks like when you set up the merge templates for these mergers, you inadvertently sent the discussion to a page called Talk Page. Unfortunately, Talk Page is the general help article on a generic talk page, not a good place to hold an actual discussion. Perhaps you wanted the discussion to take place on e.g. Talk:Conservative Halakha or some other actual talk page? Best, --Shirahadasha 03:01, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

Hi! Just one more technical issue. I noticed that in the Committee on Jewish Law and Standards article, the merger template "Discuss" link points to Talk:Committee on Jewish Law and Standards, but on the Conservative Halakha article the "Discuss" link points to Talk:Conservative Halakha. Policy is that there should be one and only one discussion page that all the links for all articles involved in a single merger proposal should point to. Having everything on one page prevents the discussion from being fractured. Normally this would be the proposed destination talk page (since this is the page which will survive if the merger succeeds). Best, --Shirahadasha 01:05, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

Also, the merge template for Conservative responsa points to Talk:Conservative Responsa which is actually a different page from Talk:Conservative responsa for the Conservative responsa article -- capitalization (the "R" in "respona") matters in article titles, and Wikipedia treats them as two different pages. In general having two pages with the same title except for capitalization is a bad idea because many Wikipedia features ignore capitalization and there is great risk of confusion and all sorts of problems. If you make all the "Discuss" links point to Talk:Conservative Halakha, this problem will go away. Best --Shirahadasha 01:12, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

Curse of Ham
You have removed the Talmudic reference, are you saying that no where in the Jewish tradition has this myth influenced perception of "black people" ? I have just seen a rather interesting debate by Tony Martin i would like your sincere opinion on it.Tony Martin on Judaic role in enslavement and please don’t dismiss the entire content anti-Semitic because it would be hard to believe everything he said was a lie, and he doesn’t seem to harbor any evil against Jewish people. It is better to hear your contribution on this matter so that there is balance. Thank you for your time.--Halaqah 10:53, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for your comments, I will ask others to research the topic so a balance view is provided. And you are correct hate breeds more hate. And i have found when you oppress people it diminishes their humanity to a point where they become like the people they see as their oppressors and the cycle goes around until no one can listen anymore.--Halaqah 22:14, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

Dance in the United States

The United States of America is the home of the hip hop dance, swing, tap dance and its derivative Rock and Roll, and modern square dance (associated with the United States of America due to its historic development in that country—twenty three U.S. states have designated it as their official state dance or official folk dance) and one of the major centers for modern dance. There is a variety of social dance and performance or concert dance forms with also a range of traditions of Native American dances.

The reality shows and competitions So You Think You Can Dance, America's Best Dance Crew, and Dancing with the Stars, have broadened the audience for dance.

African American dance
African American dances are those vernacular dances which have developed within African American communities in everyday spaces, rather than in dance studios, schools or companies. African American vernacular dances are usually centered on social dance practice, though performance dance and concert dance often supply complementary aspects to social dancing.

Placing great value on improvisation, African American vernacular dances are characterized by ongoing change and development. Because they exist in social spaces and their main 'purpose' is self-expression, they are continually changing to reflect the needs, interests and personalities of their participants.

Alvin Ailey and the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater is an important example of African American involvement in performance or concert dance.

Swing dance
The term "swing dance" refers to a group of dances that developed concurrently with jazz music in the 1920s, 30s and 40s. The most iconic among the various styles of swing dance is the Lindy Hop, which originated in Harlem and is still danced today. While the majority of swing dances began in African-American communities as vernacular African-American dances, some forms, like Balboa, developed within Euro-American or other ethnic group communities.

Dances such as the Black Bottom, Charleston, Shag, and Tap Dance travelled north with Dixieland jazz to New York, Kansas City, and Chicago in the Great Migration (African American) of the 1920s, where rural blacks travelled to escape persecution, Jim Crow laws, lynching and unemployment in the South (during the Great Depression).

Swinging jazz music features the syncopated timing associated with African American and West African music and dance—a combination of crotchets and quavers which many swing dancers interpret as 'triple steps' and 'steps' — yet also introduces changes in the way these rhythms were played—a distinct delay or 'relaxed' approach to timing.

Swing dance is now found globally, with great variety in their preferences for particular dances.

Modern dance

American modern dance developed in the early 20th century alongside American music. Among the pioneers of modern dance were Isadora Duncan, the dance company of Ruth St. Denis and her husband-partner, Ted Shawn, and their pupils Doris Humphrey and Martha Graham. The early modern dance makers broke with European classical forms by giving into the weight of gravity, initiating movement from the center rather than the limbs, and emphasizing an emotional directness in their choreography. Many of Graham's most popular works were produced in collaboration with leading American composers -- "Appalachian Spring" with Aaron Copland, for example.

Later choreographers, Merce Cunningham introduced chance procedures and composition by field, and Alvin Ailey incorporated African dance elements and black music into his works. Recently, Mark Morris and Liz Lerman have shown that graceful, exciting movement is not restricted by age or body type.

Dance and society
Dance is ingrained in society through events, the media, and awards like the Grammy awards, the Golden Globes, and the MTV video music awards which feature dancing.

Some popular competition televised events that are made for dance are Dancing with the Stars, So You Think You Can Dance and America's Best Dance Crew. These dancing shows allow society to interact with them, choosing who they think suits best in the competition.

Popular songs like Michael Jackson's "Thriller", The Harlem Shake, and "Teach me how to dougie" have influenced dance moves that became trends in society. In social gatherings people may dance folk dances, ballroom dances, casual dances, or modern dances like hip-hop.

Talk:Professional qualifications in the United Kingdom

[Untitled]
This page is a mess. The main lists are not alphabetic, nor are they sorted into lists of awards from alphabetical institutions. Also, some of these awards need checking as they seem to be a mix of chartered and associate grades.

Suggestion:

 * 1) I will try to sort these lists into strict alphabetical order
 * 2) We need to get a grip on which are chartered / professional grades and which are associate grades. Perhaps a list of those titles with the word 'Chartered' in them; another list with those containing 'Member' or equivalent? There may be some exceptions / problems with this, but these can be discussed.

Icairns 19:56, 1 Jun 2004 (UTC)

The list is now sorted AFAICT. I would suggest restructuring: Any other takers?
 * 1) Chartered titles
 * 2) Grades requiring degrees
 * 3) Grades not requiring degrees

Icairns 20:38, 1 Jun 2004 (UTC)

I think the mix of Chartered and Associate is due to the different titles, rather than an actual difference of grades - they are qeuivalent under the EU regulations. (Edit by User:192.33.116.41)

I think this needs a fresh clean-up/re-organisation...Mdcollins1984 09:38, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

 * I'm going through and aligning this with what is on the EU regulations database, and the levels on there. A lot of 'associate' grades are actually just memberships, not professional qualifications, and should be deleted. Robminchin (talk) 20:17, 13 November 2016 (UTC)

Yamhill River

The Yamhill River is an 11 mi tributary of the Willamette River, in the U.S. state of Oregon. Formed by the confluence of the South Yamhill River and the North Yamhill River about 3 mi east of McMinnville, it drains part of the Northern Oregon Coast Range. The river meanders east past Dayton to join the Willamette River at its river mile (RM) 55 or river kilometer (RK) 89, south of Newberg.

It is likely that Yamhill was the 19th century white settlers' name for a tribe of Native Americans, a Kalapuya people who inhabited the region. The Yamhill people were among 27 bands and tribes moved to the Grand Ronde Indian Reservation, formally established in 1857.

Course
Formed by the confluence of the South Yamhill and North Yamhill rivers about 3 mi east of McMinnville, the main stem Yamhill River flows generally east for about 11 mi to the Willamette River, a tributary of the Columbia River. At about RM 9 (RK 14), Hawn Creek and then Millican Creek enter from the left as the Yamhill nears Lafayette, which lies to the river's left. Beyond Lafayette, Henry Creek enters from the left. Near Dayton, the river passes under Oregon Route 18 before skirting the city, which lies to its right at RM 5 (RK 8). Here Palmer Creek enters from the right. Below Dayton, the river enters the Willamette at its RM 55 (RK 89) south of Newberg.

Lock and dam
In 1900 a Yamhill River lock and dam lock and dam was completed about 1.5 miles downriver from Lafayette, Oregon. The lock was decommissioned in 1954. The dam was deliberately destroyed in 1963 to allow better passage for salmon on the river. The site of the lock and dam is now a county park.

Katakolo

Katakolo (Κατάκολο) is a seaside town in the municipality of Pyrgos in western Elis, Greece. It is situated on a headland overlooking the Ionian Sea and separating the Gulf of Kyparissia from the rest of the Ionian. It is 11 km west of Pyrgos. The small village of Agios Andreas, which in ancient times was the natural harbour for Ancient Olympia, lies northwest of Katakolo.

History
In the Middle Ages, Katakolo was the site of the fortress of Pontikon or Pontikokastro (Ποντικόν, Ποντικόκαστρο), which the Frankish rulers of the Principality of Achaea called Beauvoir or Belveder. The fortress was built by the Byzantines and taken over by the Franks ca. 1205.

Climate
Katakolo has a hot-summer Mediterranean climate (Köppen climate classification: Csa), with hot, dry summers and mild winters with significant rainfall.

The port of Katakolo is a popular stop for cruise ships, offering an opportunity for passengers to visit the site of Olympia. Low hills with forests surround Katakolo. Visitors here have the opportunity to visit the ancient port of Olympia, the sunken ancient city of Pheia. Ancient Pheia was on the other side of the mountain of Ichthys, now Agios Andreas, within walking distance of Katakolo port. The lighthouse of Katakolo was built in 1865. One of the most important sites of Katakolo is the Museum of Ancient Greek Technology.

Katakolo has a big market. It consists of more than sixty shops. Cafeterias, restaurants, clothing and traditional Greek products.

The remains of the medieval Pontikokastro/Belvedere/Beauvoir castle still stand on a hilltop northeast of the modern port, but the castle is mostly ruined and its original appearance can only be surmised.

Rail
A railway station connects Katakolo with Pyrgos and Olympia.

Golden Age of Freethought

The Golden Age of Freethought is the mid 19th-century period in United States history which saw the development of the socio-political movement promoting freethought. Anti-authoritarian and intellectually liberating historical eras had existed many times in history, notably in eighteenth century France. But the period roughly from 1875 to 1914 is referred to by at least one contemporary writer as "the high-water mark of freethought as an influential movement in American society". It began around 1856 and lasted at least through the end of the century; author Susan Jacoby places the end of the Golden Age at the start of World War I.

Freethought is a philosophical position that holds that ideas and opinions should be based on science and reason, and not restricted by authority, tradition, or religion. It is characteristic of the 18th century Enlightenment but hardly confined to any one epoch or place. The late nineteenth century American Golden Age was encouraged by the lectures of the extremely popular agnostic orator Robert Green Ingersoll, the popularization of Charles Darwin's On the Origin of Species, the push for women's suffrage, and other political, scientific, and social trends that clashed with religious orthodoxy and caused people to question the traditional ideas about the world that they encountered in received opinion.

A freethinker of the late 19th century could have been someone from any of the varied religious and political backgrounds. Charles Knowlton, D. M. Bennett, and Ingersoll were influential freethinkers of the period.

Robert G. Ingersoll (1833–1899) was one of the more prominent freethinkers of his time. He was known as the "Great Agnostic". Ingersoll, a lawyer, an orator and a Civil War veteran, is famous for his skeptical approaches to popular religious beliefs. He would speak in public about orthodox views and would often poke fun at them. Guests would pay $1 to hear him speak. Ingersoll was the leader of the American Secular Union, successor organization to the National Liberal League.

Charles Knowlton was born into a Puritan household in 1800. The science and medicine practiced around this time was known as "heroic". Heroic medicinal treatment was rather medieval and consisted of blood-letting, and induced vomiting and profuse sweating. These treatments, far from being restorative, usually actually proved harmful to patients. Knowlton had wet dreams in his adolescence, leading him to be the subject of many types of heroic treatment. The revulsion that these interventions induced in him prompted him to pursue humane approaches to treatment. Believing that effective and healthy treatment must be founded on a sound understanding of human anatomy, he began body snatching from graves and studying the bodies he exhumed. Knowlton was imprisoned for this. On release his concern for the introduction of more humane medicine was undimmed. He became a doctor, putting his scientific findings into his practice. He also married into a family of freethinkers.

Knowlton wrote "Elements of Modern Materialism" and "Fruits of Philosophy" in 1832. The second would prove much more successful. The book included a spermicidal method which he had invented.

Roland JX-3P

The Roland JX-3P is a synthesizer produced by Roland Corporation of Japan from 1983–1985. The "3P" in its name refers to "Programmable Preset Polyphonic". It is notable as one of the company's first synthesizers (along with the Jupiter-6) to incorporate a MIDI interface.

Features
The JX-3P is a six-note polyphonic, 2 DCOs, 61 key synthesizer with sawtooth, 50 and 10% pulse waveforms, and a noise generator. It has 32 factory programs in ROM, and user memory for 32 programs.

The JX-3P also features a built-in 128-step polyphonic sequencer that can be synchronized to external devices, such as drum machines, connected to its simple clock pulse input jack. MIDI clock synchronization is not supported.

As one of the earliest MIDI devices, the JX-3P's MIDI implementation is basic, supporting only note on/off, pitch bend, hold, modulation and program change messages. Neither "System Exclusive" nor "Continuous Controllers" (CC) are implemented, so external patch storage or real-time parameter updates are not possible through MIDI (except with third-party upgrades).

The JX-3P is fully programmable from its front panel. To do so, each synthesis parameter must be selected numerically, then its value can be adjusted with a single slider. For a more immediate programming experience, Roland offered the optional PG-200 "programmer," a simple control surface with dedicated switches and potentiometers for editing each of the JX-3P's parameters. The PG-200 connects to the synthesizer through a proprietary interface and provides hardware sliders dedicated to most JX-3P parameters for editing patches. It is not possible to use the PG-200 and the MIDI interface at the same time, however. The PG-200 programmer also served to edit patches for the Roland GR-700 Guitar Synthesizer, which shares the same voice architecture and sound engine as the JX-3P.

Juno series lineage
The JX-3P's architecture is similar to the Juno series synths produced around the same time. Both machines employ the same interval-timer DCO technology, use the Roland IR3109 low-pass filter, a discrete VCA, and have an on-board stereo chorus effect. The JX-3P has a single ADSR envelope generator and a single modulation oscillator - both software-generated (while the Juno-6 and Juno-60 use analogue circuitry for the envelope generator).

The JX-3P had two distinct DCOs with detuning and several cross-modulation modes, as opposed to the single DCO with sub-oscillator design of the Juno line. Also unlike the Juno, the JX-3P allows the pitch of either oscillator to be controlled by its envelope generator and lfo. Juno features lacking in the JX-3P include portamento and a second chorus mode.

Variants and aftermarket upgrades
Roland also produced a rackmount synthesizer similar to the JX-3P, the MKS-30 Planet-S. Unlike the JX-3P, the MKS-30 would respond to velocity (dynamics) via MIDI, and can receive MIDI notes while simultaneously working with the PG-200 programmer.

There is an EPROM version available at Roland, which enables MIDI reception of note velocity. There is an add-on kit available from Series Circuits (see link below), which enables parallel usage of PG-200 and MIDI and also introduces parameter control via MIDI controller data (and includes the functionality of the Roland EPROM update). The New Zealand based company Kiwitechnics offers an upgrade kit called "Kiwi-3P" which significantly enhances the functionality of the JX-3P.

Length scale

In physics, length scale is a particular length or distance determined with the precision of at most a few orders of magnitude. The concept of length scale is particularly important because physical phenomena of different length scales cannot affect each other and are said to decouple. The decoupling of different length scales makes it possible to have a self-consistent theory that only describes the relevant length scales for a given problem. Scientific reductionism says that the physical laws on the shortest length scales can be used to derive the effective description at larger length scales. The idea that one can derive descriptions of physics at different length scales from one another can be quantified with the renormalization group.

In quantum mechanics the length scale of a given phenomenon is related to its de Broglie wavelength ℓ = ħ/p, where ħ is the reduced Planck constant and p is the momentum that is being probed. In relativistic mechanics time and length scales are related by the speed of light. In relativistic quantum mechanics or relativistic quantum field theory, length scales are related to momentum, time and energy scales through the Planck constant and the speed of light. Often in high energy physics natural units are used where length, time, energy and momentum scales are described in the same units (usually with units of energy such as GeV).

Length scales are usually the operative scale (or at least one of the scales) in dimensional analysis. For instance, in scattering theory, the most common quantity to calculate is a cross section which has units of length squared and is measured in barns. The cross section of a given process is usually the square of the length scale.

Examples

 * The atomic length scale is ℓa ~ $m$ and is given by the size of hydrogen atom (i.e., the Bohr radius, approximately $53 pm$).
 * The length scale for the strong interactions (or the one derived from QCD through dimensional transmutation) is around ℓs ~ $m$, and the "radii" of strongly interacting particles (such as the proton) are roughly comparable. This length scale is determined by the range of the Yukawa potential.  The lifetimes of strongly interacting particles, such as the rho meson, are  given by this length scale divided by the speed of light: $s$.  The masses of strongly interacting particles are several times the associated energy scale ($500 MeV/c2$ to $3,000 MeV/c2$).
 * The electroweak length scale is shorter, roughly ℓw ~ $m$ and is set by the rest mass of the weak vector bosons, which is roughly $100 GeV/c2$. This length scale would be the distance where a Yukawa force is mediated by the weak vector bosons. The magnitude of weak length scale was initially inferred by the Fermi constant measured by neutron and muon decay.
 * The Planck length (Planck scale) is much shorter yet – about ℓP ~ $m$, and is derived from the Newtonian constant of gravitation.
 * The mesoscopic scale is the length at which quantum mechanical behaviours in liquids or solid can be described by macroscopic concepts.

Milestone characters
Um, hello? Anonymous guy at 195.92.168.whatever? Could you maybe register so that it'll be easier to communicate with you about the Milestone characters? Thanks. DS 20:05, 1 Jun 2004 (UTC)

The bit about Shiv being based on Plus (and thence on Green Lantern) comes directly from Dwayne McDuffie, the creator: I asked him to check out this page and tell me if he saw anything blatantly false. Please don't change it again. I know I'm the one who added the Dagger connection in the first place, but it was wrong.

Also, you don't have to boldface every occurence of every character's name. It doesn't look good.

That said, you've been doing a good job. DS 15:34, 17 Jun 2004 (UTC)

 * 1 - Thank you for the "That said, you've been doing a good job"

 * 2 - How can Shiv's powers be based on Plus? I looked up the Marvel Comics character - Dagger and she's also generating Light Energy into blades (Daggers); however Plus - she was a Two-in-One being with the power of flight and the projection of force-fields, and I'v never seen Shiv fly - ever!

 * 3 - I "boldface every occurence of every character's name" so that the name will stand out.

 * 4 - As for Leach; those "Suckers" on the palms of his hands so do remind me big-time of the "Suckers" on the palms of the hands of Michael Morbius the Living Vampire from the 94-98 animated series of Spider-Man. He is sort of a mix of Parasite from the Animated adventures of Superman and Morbius the Living Vampire from the animated series of Spider-Man - the "Suckers" and the ability to drain Super-Powers from other Meta-Humans.

 * 5 - Speaking of the 94-98 animated series of Spider-Man; in Season 3, in episode 32. Sins of the Fathers Chapter 5: The Rocket Racer - Robert Farrell, who steals some gyroscopic rocket technology from the bad guys - fixes it on to his skateboard and starts surfing on the walls of buildings by using Magnetism on the buildings Infrastructure - sounds like a referance to Static.

 * User:Mare-Silverus 10:25, 19, Jun 2004

 * Since you are looking for connections to previous characters, let me give some info:

 * - Parasite has been adapted to the animated series continuity, but he is actually a 1960s character created by Jim Shooter, who would go on to become Marvel's Editor-in-chief, arguably the best the company ever had.

 * - Likewise, Morbius comes from Amazing Spider-Man Vol. 1 #101-102.

 * - Rocket Racer was created by Len Wein (IIRC; it might be Marv Wolfman) in 1970s Amazing Spider-Man. He would appear sporadically but recurrently though the years, going all the way to the Clone Saga at least.  He has reformed and sometimes paired of with other slightly ambiguous Spider-Man characters, most notably Hobie Brown aka The Prowler.  He (Racer) predates Static by quite a few years.

 * The magnetic gizmo may however be a reference to Static; IIRC the comic book character did not have that specific trick.

 * Luis Dantas 11:16, 19 Jun 2004 (UTC)

 * Rocket Racer did have a magnetic gyroscope thingy in his board that let him ride up walls, at least by his 1980s appearances. -Sean Curtin 11:34, 19 Jun 2004 (UTC)

 * Thank you for all that information (but those "Suckers" on Leaches palms still remind me big-time of Michael Morbius the Living Vampire).

 * However I'v been thinking of the futures of the STATIC SHOCK characters - personally I do think that Shiv could end up as a early member of the Jokerz from BATMAN BEYOND; seeing as Shiv is such a fan of the Joker himself.

 * Speaking of BATMAN BEYOND - the Brain Trust if they around in the STATIC SHOCK timeline; how could they resist recruiting Madelyn Spaulding (if she has managed to retain her powers or they might try to restore her powers) - its a possibility.

 * If the animated series of STATIC SHOCK is allowed to continue; and Ebon and Hot-Streak are separated - seeing as the Joker, Poison-Ivy and Harley Quinn have all tried to recruit Meta-Human help before - I hope to see other villians trying to recruit Bang-Babies (like maybe Volcana, from the animated series of Superman, recruiting Hot-Streak).

 * I Hope to see Tech and Gear or Steel and Gear working together, I hope to see a explanation for why Static and Gear remembering about a adventure that technically should not of happened since Time-Zone's power no longer exist. I also have ideas for Bang-Babies and powers that I whould like to see on screen.

 * User:Mare-Silverus 15:12, 19, Jun 2004

 * P.S. I had to change the STATIC SHOCk page because it was getting too long, would anyone like to alter it properly?

 * User:Mare-Silverus 18:28, 21, Jun 2004

Okay, some important points. First, I consulted with Dwayne McDuffie about the information here. He is the authoritative source. If he says something is incorrect, it is: for instance, if he says Shiv has nothing to do with Dagger, Shiv has nothing to do with Dagger.

Also, do not do not do NOT put in your ideas for Bang-Babies, or powers, or ANYTHING ELSE that you would like to see in future episodes. Wikipedia is not fanfic. It's great that the show inspires you to be creative, but this is not the place for it.

Furthermore, your speculations about interactions between characters owned by distinct legal entities shows that you're not aware of the relevant intellectual property issues. The ideas you have simply are NOT going to happen on the show. They're not. Trust me.

DS 15:28, 25 Jun 2004 (UTC)

 * I know this site is an Encyclopedia, not a fanfic so please do not point out the obvious; personally I wish there was a site that did have a section on the subject. I know you said that Shiv is based on Plus and not Dagger, but Shiv's powers still remind me of Daggers.  Also STATIC SHOCK didn't just inspire me to be a bit creative - it also inspired me to do better in Chemistry & Physics, I used to be terrible with Chemistry & Physics, my strong point was Biology.

 * As for my speculations about interactions between characters; its things I think are likly, besides this page is about talking about STATIC SHOCK, so people are allowed to give speculations.

Inappropriate additions
Someone (I'm guessing from the repetition of his previous activity that it's User:Mare-Silverus) has been inserting quotes at the top of this article and two others about Static. As I've explained to him, they do not belong there; this is an encyclopedia, not a fan site, and there are standards for how articles should be structured and what they should contain. This is why I keep removing those quotes, and will continue to remove them as often as necessary. If the person who keeps adding them would like to act like an adult and discuss it, that would be very welcome. Tverbeek 18:00, 6 May 2005 (UTC)

Mergers
I've been merging information from pages about various supporting characters into this page and redirecting those pages to this one. With the exception of the title character (who has also been the star of a comics series), none of these are noteworthy enough in themselves to warrant an entire wikipedia entry about them. These mergers are making this article a bit long, but when I'm finished with them, I intend to give the article as a whole some attention to make it more succinct, highlighting the most important information about the series, and leaving the trivia for any zealous fans to document on their own fan sites.

 * It seems a pity that they can't just come out and say this in the show. Not even in episodes intended for export to countries where there is less homophobia, or chaels like Adult Swim that have an older audience viewing later in the day.

 * Saying that you can't have a homosexual character just because its Y-7 kinda makes America seem backwards and discriminatory. There are foreign cartoons with a Y-7ish audience have homeosexual characters and parents are cool with it in those countries.

I think the reason for the trouble there is that it is against some religions. Besides that, many people are disurbed by the concept. (I know that sounds discriminatory but I don't know how else to put it.) It's a very real possibility that the voice actors or animators wouldn't be willing to portray the concept in the show. Though, the show does deal with such concepts as racism. -Brandonrc2 (Not logged in.) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 63.3.12.130 (talk) 19:44, 19 June 2009 (UTC)

Theodorick Bland (congressman)

Theodorick Bland (March 21, 1741 – June 1, 1790), also known as Theodorick Bland, Jr., was an American planter, physician, soldier, and politician from Prince George County, Virginia. A major figure in the formation of the new United States government, Bland represented Virginia in both the Continental Congress and the United States House of Representatives (until his death in office), as well as served multiple terms in the Virginia House of Delegates representing Prince George County, which he also represented in the Virginia Ratification Convention (and unsuccessfully opposed ratification).

Early life and education
Bland was born in Prince George County in 1741 to a prominent planter family in colonial Virginia. His parents were Theodorick Bland of Cawsons and Frances Elizabeth (Bolling) Bland. His mother was the only child and heir of Captain Drury Bolling and Elizabeth Meriweather of "Kippax," which plantation the younger Theodorick subsequently inherited and operated.

His ancestors had settled in Virginia years earlier, became civic leaders (hence sometimes referred to as the First Families of Virginia) and prospered by operating plantations using enslaved labor. Like his father (who served in the initial Virginia Senate during the American Revolutionary War representing Prince George County and nearly Isle of Wight and Surry Counties), he was named after Theodorick Bland of Westover, who had served as Speaker of the House of Burgesses in 1660 and also represented Charles City County then new Henrico County) from 1661 until his death, probably in 1672. His grandfather, Richard Bland, had married Elizabeth Randolph, daughter of William Randolph of Turkey Island. His uncle, also named Richard Bland, his father's first cousin Peyton Randolph, and his second cousin Thomas Jefferson would precede him in being elected to state legislative posts as well as Congress.

At age 11, after being tutored at home as was customary for his class, he was sent to Great Britain for his education, accompanied by an enslaved boy, Tom, as his body servant. Bland studied first in Yorkshire. Next he went to Scotland to study medicine at the University of Edinburgh, graduating as a doctor in 1763.

Early career and marriage
Bland then returned to Virginia and began a medical practice, as well as following family traditions of political involvement and farming using enslaved labor. He married Martha Daingerfield in 1768 and they likely settled at Kippax about that time. (His parents had moved to Cawsons.) Thus Bland became a planter and major slaveholder. Bland retired from medical practice in the late 1760s, "in favor of farming and politics". He became active in politics before the war, serving as the Clerk of Prince George County.

Revolutionary War
As the Revolution neared, Bland's Whig views aligned him with the rebels. He or his father published letters criticizing Lord Dunmore in the Virginia Gazette under the pseudonym "Cassius". In 1775 Bland joined the local "Committee of Intelligence" as well as helped locate arms and munitions for the patriot cause. In June 1776, Bland accepted a commission as captain in Virginia's cavalry. He rose quickly to Colonel and commanded the 1st Continental Light Dragoons, often cited as "Bland's Virginia Horse" in Revolutionary dispatches and correspondence. In the latter capacity Bland reported directly to General Washington. He would retire in 1779 from active cavalry service due to poor health, which he had suffered from his youth.

Bland's observations at Brandywine supplied General Washington with the correct location of Lord Cornwallis's and Howe's main armies; Bland wrote two separate dispatches, and Col. James Ross of the 8th Pennsylvania wrote another dispatch reporting on British troop movements. Both men's dispatches supported that of Col. Hazen. However, their dispatches were initially misinterpreted, until it was almost too late. Without the accurate contributions of Bland, Ross, and Hazen, a worse result might have befallen Washington's army at Brandywine.

Some later accounts have Bland's Virginia Horse subsequently assigned to scouting duty. In his 1922 biography of John Randolph, the historian William Cabell Bruce suggested that the Brandywine incident encouraged Washington to use his cavalries more for scouting rather than sitting in formation on the front lines, as they had at Brandywine. However, the lack of scouting had led to the Brandywine errors.

At Gen. Washington's request, when Bland returned to Virginia to recuperate in 1779, he also served as Warden at Charlottesville over British officers taken prisoner. He also worked to keep Washington's officers and cavalry supplied with quality horses both from his own stables and from others. As a participant in the early American horse-racing community, Bland owned a large stable and had access to other horses through relatives and friends. Bland had earlier retired from his active medical practice for the same health issues in the late 1760s, nearly a decade before the war had begun, and finally was allowed to retire from the military for health reasons in late 1779. He did, however, in 1785, accept a commission from Gov. Patrick Henry as the Prince George County Lieutenant, with military responsibilities.

Planter
As a planter like his father, grandfather and namesake, Bland cultivated tobacco, indigo and wheat. In the 1787 Virginia tax census, he owned 18 enslaved Blacks at least 16 years old, and 13 under that age, as well as 11 horses, 21 cattle and a 4-wheeled chariot. As mentioned below, his father had moved to Amelia County after the conflict, but died before that tax census. Thus, his father's estate also owned 13 enslaved adult Blacks in Amelia County, Virginia, as well as 10 younger slaves and four horses.

Politician
Bland's political career had begun before the Revolution, when he served as the Clerk of Prince George County, and had considerable contact with the House of Burgesses. Following the war, Bland continued as the county's Clerk, which caused him to communicate with the Virginia General Assembly, in which his father served in the Virginia Senate and Edmund Bland served in the Virginia House of Delegates. In 1780, the General Assembly named Bland as one of Virginia's delegates to the Continental Congress, where he served until 1783 and thus helped form the new United States government.

After his father moved to Amelia County, Bland took over Cawsons (apparently about 1783-1784 after his return to Virginia from the Continental Congress and his father's death.) Bland then operated Kippax as an out-plantation. In 1786, Bland was elected to the Virginia House, where he served until 1788.

In 1788, Prince George voters elected Bland and Ruffin as their delegate to the Virginia Convention called to ratify the United States Constitution. Bland voted against ratification, as he believed it yielded too much power to a central government.

After the constitution was adopted, Virginia legislators elected to Bland the First United States Congress (he ran unopposed). He served in the House of Representatives from March 4, 1789, until his death in 1790 at the age of 49. He died while attending the Congress in New York City, and William B. Giles of Amelia County was selected as his successor. Bland was the first member of House of Representatives to die in office. William Branch Giles completed his term.

Death and legacy
Bland was originally buried in New York's Trinity Churchyard in Lower Manhattan. (Trinity Church was designated in the late 20th century as a National Historic Landmark). In 1828, his remains were moved and reinterred in the Congressional Cemetery in Washington, D.C.

His wife Martha Bland survived him and married two more times. She was an independent woman, maintaining the Bland holdings by executing marriage contracts to control her own lands.

Bland bequeathed 2 acres of land on Blandford Hill next to the church to create a school to educate youth, but insisted that it be established within 15 years of his death, which bequest lapsed because no school was constructed.

Although the buildings of Kippax Plantation are long gone, and the town of Hopewell grew on the site, it has recently been purchased by the Archaeological Conservancy, and archaeological excavations are ongoing.

Queens Village, Queens

Queens Village is a mostly residential middle class neighborhood in the eastern part of the New York City borough of Queens. It is bound by Hollis to the west, Cambria Heights to the south, Bellerose, Queens and Elmont, Nassau County to the east, and Oakland Gardens to the north.

Shopping in the community is located along Braddock Avenue, Hillside Avenue, Hempstead Avenue, Jamaica Avenue (NY 25), Francis Lewis Boulevard, and Springfield Boulevard. Located just east of Queens Village, in Elmont, Nassau County, is the Belmont Park race track.

Close to the neighborhood are Cunningham Park and Alley Pond Park, as well as the historic Long Island Motor Parkway (LIMP), home of the turn of the century racing competition, the Vanderbilt Cup. The LIMP was built by William Kissam Vanderbilt, a descendant of the family that presided over the New York Central Railroad and Western Union; it is now part of the Brooklyn-Queens Greenway.

Queens Village is located in Queens Community District 13 and its ZIP Codes are 11427, 11428, and 11429. It is patrolled by the New York City Police Department's 105th Precinct. Politically, Queens Village is represented by the New York City Council's 23rd District.

History
Queens Village was founded as Little Plains in the 1640s. Homage to this part of Queens Village history is found on the sign above the Long Island Railroad Station there. In 1824, Thomas Brush established a blacksmith shop in the area. He prospered and built several other shops and a factory, and the area soon became known as Brushville. On March 1, 1837, the railroad arrived. The first station in the area was called Flushing Avenue in 1837, Delancy Avenue by June 20, 1837, and Brushville by November 27, 1837, likely about a mile west of the present station. In 1856, residents voted to change the name from Brushville to Queens. The name "Inglewood" also was used for both the village and the train station in the 1860s and 1870s. The name Brushville was still used in an 1860 New York Times article, but both "Queens" and "Brushville" are used in an 1870 article. Maps from 1873 show portions of Queens Village (then called Inglewood and Queens) in the town of Hempstead, but 1891 maps show it entirely in the town of Jamaica.

After the Borough of Queens became incorporated as part of the City of Greater New York in 1898, and the new county of Nassau was created in 1899, the border between the city and Nassau County was set directly east of Queens Village. A 1901 article in the Brooklyn Eagle already uses the full name Queens Village, a name that had been used as late as the 1880s for Lloyd's Neck in present-day Suffolk County. In 1923, the Long Island Railroad added "Village" to its station's name to avoid confusion with the county of the same name, and thus the neighborhood became known as Queens Village.

Queens Village was part of an overall housing boom that was spreading east through Queens from New York as people from the city sought the bucolic life afforded by the less-crowded atmosphere of the area. Today, many of those charming and well-maintained Dutch Colonial and Tudor homes built in Queens Village during the 1920s and 1930s continue to attract a diverse population.

Other Queens Village on Long Island
Lloyd Harbor, New York, which was formerly in Queens County but now in Suffolk County, was known as Queens Village from 1685 until as late as 1883. In 1885, known then as Lloyd Neck, it seceded from Queens County and became part of the town of Huntington in Suffolk County.

Bellaire
Bellaire is in western Queens Village next to Hollis and covers the area surrounding Jamaica Avenue and 211th Street. Bellaire is the largest section of Queens Village. The area considered Bellaire usually falls under the general title of Queens Village. There was once a Long Island Rail Road station named Bellaire. 211th Street, formerly known as Belleaire Boulevard has traffic medians on it indicating its history as the main route through this section of Queens Village.

Hollis Hills

Hollis Hills is an affluent subsection, generally bounded by Springfield Boulevard to the east, Grand Central Parkway the south, Hollis Hills Terrace to the west, and Kingsbury Avenue and Richland Avenue the north. It is slightly above sea level due to a retreating glacier from the last Ice Age. A small pond called Potamogeton Pond exists at Bell Boulevard on the north side of Grand Central Parkway.

Most homes in Hollis Hills are of the Colonial, Tudor, and Ranch styles. Houses here attract predominantly the upper-middle class as some houses in the area can fetch prices of $1,500,000 or higher. This neighborhood, similar to Douglaston, is a quasi-suburb, with detached homes sitting on large tree-lined lots. Surrey Estates, a section of Hollis Hills, is a smaller triangle of architecturally notable homes surrounded by old, large trees and is bound by Union Turnpike, Springfield Boulevard, and Hartland Avenue within Hollis Hills.

Notable institutions in Hollis Hills are The Chapel of the Redeemer Lutheran, Hollis Hills Jewish Center (founded in 1948), American Martyrs Catholic Church, the Windsor Park Branch of the Queens Public Library, the John Hamburg Community Center, Kingsbury Elementary School (P.S. 188), Hollis Hills Civic Association, and Surrey Estates Homeowners Association.

Demographics
Queens Village, like many parts of Queens, is diverse. The neighborhood is mainly Caribbean American. Guyanese, Hispanic, Indian, Filipino, and Jamaican people also have significant populations among the 48,670 people living within the area. Formerly, a very large Jewish community existed. However, many Jewish families have left for other parts of Queens and parts of Long Island. Still, there is a small Jewish presence in Queens Village that has recently been augmented by an increase of Middle Eastern Jews. There has also been an increase in the number of Asian American residents.

Based on data from the 2010 United States Census, the population of Queens Village was 52,504, a decrease of 5,200 (9.0%) from the 57,704 counted in 2000. Covering an area of 1,611.17 acres, the neighborhood had a population density of 32.6 PD/acre.

The racial makeup of the neighborhood was 50.2% (26,376) African American, 16.0% (8,424) Asian, 6.3% (3,304) White, 0.5% (279) Native American, 0.1% (64) Pacific Islander, 3.9% (2,066) from other races and 4.4% (2,320) from two or more races. Hispanic or Latino of any race were 18.4% (9,671) of the population.

The entirety of Community Board 13, which mainly comprises Queens Village but also includes other areas, had 193,787 inhabitants as of NYC Health's 2018 Community Health Profile, with an average life expectancy of 82.9 years. This is higher than the median life expectancy of 81.2 for all New York City neighborhoods. Most inhabitants are youth and middle-aged adults: 20% are between the ages of between 0–17, 26% between 25–44, and 29% between 45–64. The ratio of college-aged and elderly residents was lower, at 9% and 16% respectively.

As of 2017, the median household income in Community Board 13 was $85,857. In 2018, an estimated 13% of Queens Village residents lived in poverty, compared to 19% in all of Queens and 20% in all of New York City. One in twelve residents (8%) were unemployed, compared to 8% in Queens and 9% in New York City. Rent burden, or the percentage of residents who have difficulty paying their rent, is 50% in Queens Village, lower than the boroughwide and citywide rates of 53% and 51% respectively. Based on this calculation,, Queens Village are considered to be high-income relative to the rest of the city and not gentrifying.
