Pastrami

Pastrami (Romanian: pastramă) is a type of cured meat originating from Romania usually made from beef brisket. Later recipes use lamb, pork, chicken or turkey. The raw meat is brined, partially dried, seasoned with herbs and spices, then smoked and steamed. Like corned beef, pastrami was originally created as a way to preserve meat before the invention of refrigeration. One of the iconic meats of Eastern European cuisine as well as American Jewish cuisine and New York City cuisine, hot pastrami is typically served at delicatessen restaurants on sandwiches such as the pastrami on rye.

Etymology and origin
The name pastrami comes from the Turkish pastırma, derived from the Turkish and Azerbaijan verb bastırma meaning "to press".

Wind-dried beef had been made in Anatolia for centuries, and Byzantine dried meat is thought by some to be "one of the forerunners of the pastırma of modern Turkey."

Pastrami was introduced to the United States in a wave of Jewish immigration from Bessarabia and Romania in the second half of the 19th century. The modified "pastrami" spelling was probably introduced in imitation of the American English salami. Romanian Jews emigrated to New York as early as 1872. Among Jewish Romanians, goose breasts were commonly made into pastrami because they were available. Beef navel was cheaper than goose meat in America, so the Romanian Jews in America adapted their recipe and began to make the cheaper-alternative beef pastrami.

New York's Sussman Volk is generally credited with producing the first pastrami sandwich in the United States in 1887. Volk was a kosher butcher and New York immigrant from Lithuania. According to his descendant Patricia Volk, he prepared pastrami according to the recipe of a Romanian friend and served it on sandwiches out of his butcher shop. The sandwich was so popular that Volk converted the butcher shop into a restaurant to sell pastrami sandwiches.

Preparation and serving
Beef plate is the traditional cut of meat for making pastrami, although it is now common in the United States to see it made from beef brisket, beef round, and turkey. New York pastrami is generally made from beef navel, which is the ventral part of the plate. It is cured in brine, coated with a mix of spices such as garlic, coriander, black pepper, paprika, cloves, allspice, and mustard seed, and then smoked. Finally, the meat is steamed until the connective tissues within the meat break down into gelatin.

While pastrami is more commonly made with the fat-marbled navel or plate cut, Montreal smoked meat is made with variable-fat brisket. This is because "navel is much harder to find in Canada because of its British beef cut tradition". The use of brisket means that smoked meat is "not fattier throughout the cut, but it has a larger cap of fat, and it has a stringier texture, more fibrous. American-style pastrami is more marbled with fat and has a denser texture."

Greek immigrants to Salt Lake City in the early 1960s introduced a cheeseburger topped with pastrami and a special sauce. The pastrami cheeseburger has since remained a staple of local burger chains in Utah.

Carl Eller

Carl Eller (born January 25, 1942) is an American former professional football player who played as a defensive end in the National Football League (NFL) from 1964 through 1979. He was born in Winston-Salem, North Carolina and played college football for the Minnesota Golden Gophers. He was elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2004.

College career
As a sophomore at the University of Minnesota, Eller helped lead the Golden Gophers to a Rose Bowl victory. While Eller shared the starting position as a sophomore, he became a full-time, two-way player as a junior and senior and was voted All-America both years. During his time in college, the Gophers were National Champions as well as Big Ten champions. As a senior (1963), Eller was the runner-up for the Outland Trophy. Following each football season, the Carl Eller Award is given to the University of Minnesota's Defensive Player of the Year. He was elected to the College Football Hall of Fame in 2006.

At the University of Minnesota, Eller joined the Mu Chapter of the Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity. In 1994, he graduated from Metropolitan State University in St. Paul, Minnesota with a bachelor's degree in human services.

NFL career
In 1964, Eller was selected in the first round of the NFL draft by the Minnesota Vikings. He was also selected in the first round of the American Football League Draft by the Buffalo Bills, who could not sign him. As the left defensive end in the Vikings front four, he was a major factor in the unit known as the "Purple People Eaters".

Starting in 1968, Eller's fifth campaign, Minnesota won 10 Central Division titles in the next 11 seasons. The Vikings won the NFL Championship in 1969, losing to the AFL Champion Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl IV, and won the NFC Championships in 1973, 1974, and 1976. Eller was one of 11 Vikings to play in all four of their Super Bowls.

He was selected to play in six Pro Bowls (1968–1971, 1973, and 1974). After being traded with an eighth-round pick to Seattle Seahawks for defensive tackle Steve Niehaus, Eller played his final season in 1979 with the Seattle Seahawks, where he ran his career total to 225 games. In his career, "Moose" only missed three games and started 209 out of the 225 he played.

Eller is credited as the Vikings' all-time sack leader with 130½. He also had 3 sacks with the Seahawks in 1979 for a career total of 133½. He set a career high with 15 sacks in 1969 and matched that total in 1977; he also amassed 7 seasons with 10 or more sacks.

Eller was First-team All-NFL from 1968 to 1971, and again in 1973. He was also Second-team All-Pro in 1967 and 1972 and was All-NFC by AP and The Sporting News in 1975. Including his Pro Bowls, Eller had a nine-year consecutive streak of post-season honors which began in 1967 with his Second-team All-Pro selection and ended in 1975 with his All-NFC honors.

He was voted the winner of the George Halas Trophy in 1971 as the NFL's Defensive Player of the Year as awarded by the Newspaper Enterprise Association (NEA).

Life after football
As a licensed drug and alcohol counselor, Eller founded a group of substance-abuse clinics in the Twin Cities called Triumph Life Centers in 1986. He obtained a college degree in Human Services from Metropolitan State University in 1994 and went on to work for the Minnesota Department of Human Services, addressing issues of health disparities between white people and people of color.

In 2000, Eller was named to the Vikings' 40th Anniversary Team and in 2010, he was named to the Vikings' 50th Anniversary team. In 2003, he was named to the Professional Football Researchers Association Hall of Very Good in the association's inaugural HOVG class. In 2004, Eller was elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame. In 2006, he was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame.

Eller was arrested in 2006 for driving under the influence and pleaded guilty. Eller was arrested in 2008 for fourth-degree assault of a police officer and second-degree refusal to submit to chemical testing, both gross misdemeanors. He was sentenced and served 60 days in the county workhouse.

Eller later served as president of the NFL Retired Players Association. In 2020, he joined the Halberd Corporation, a research-based publicly traded company that helps discover and develop medical treatments for diseases, as a consultant.

Eotvos (unit)

The eotvos is a unit of acceleration divided by distance that was used in conjunction with the older centimetre–gram–second system of units (cgs). The eotvos is defined as 10−9 galileos per centimetre. The symbol of the eotvos unit is E.

In SI units or in cgs units, 1 eotvos = 10−9 second−2.

The gravitational gradient of the Earth, that is, the change in the gravitational acceleration vector from one point on the Earth's surface to another, is customarily measured in units of eotvos. The Earth's gravity gradient is dominated by the component due to Earth's near-spherical shape, which results in a vertical tensile gravity gradient of 3,080 E (an elevation increase of 1 m gives a decrease of gravity of about 0.3 mGal), and horizontal compressive gravity gradients of one half that, or 1,540 E. Earth's rotation perturbs this in a direction-dependent manner by about 5 E. Gravity gradient anomalies in mountainous areas can be as large as several hundred eotvos.

The eotvos unit is named for the physicist Loránd Eötvös, who made pioneering studies of the gradient of the Earth's gravitational field.

fractional calculus
It seems we have something in common :) I once thought up how one can find any complex power of the differential operator d/dx, when I was in 10th grade and hadn't heard of fractional calculus. I was quite surprised to find the field of fractional calculus.

Recent edits, WP:ITA
Hi! I notice that in some of the articles linked from List of ineffective cancer treatments you have been attributing statements about the promotion of treatments to the body that made them. While this may not matter much, there is perhaps a slight risk that it makes the statement seem as if it is just the opinion of the source, rather than something factual. The WP:ITA guidance applies because the promotion of ineffective cancer treatments is a fringe area: and as WP:ITA cautions: "be careful not to use in-text attribution carelessly to imply that only the named sources would agree".

You also removed the "see also" link to List of ineffective cancer treatments from the Venus flytrap article. Yet venus flytrap is used to make an ineffective cancer cure, and readers interested in this aspect should have a link so that they can discover more. As MOS:SEEALSO has it: "One purpose of 'See also' links is to enable readers to explore tangentially related topics". Because of that, I've put the see also link back.

If you want to discuss this further, I suggest posting to the Talk page of the relevant article, so we can get more eyes on these questions. Thanks - Alexbrn talk 16:42, 23 September 2013 (UTC)

 * You wrote, "While this may not matter much, there is perhaps a slight risk that it makes the statement seem as if it is just the opinion of the source, rather than something factual." That is unfortunate but there are ways to address it, namely multiple citations and from sources that can prove, justify or elaborate upon their claims about the very climate of marketing or propaganda. By the way, truth is one thing, whereas verifiability is another, and Wikipedia seems to be more concerned about the latter. As well, the extent to which people (whomever) make untrue, pseudoscientific, fringe-like claims about health-keeping or healing methods be common knowledge is debatable unless those claims or myths are extremely popular. You wrote, "I suggest posting to the Talk page of the relevant article, so we can get more eyes on these questions." Alright. I will probably soon mention it there. And I would certainly hope more eyes could be gotten on the matter. -- Lindberg 17:09, 23 September 2013 (UTC)

 * I suppose ideally we want verifiability (as WP requires) and truth. Fortunately, by using impeccable sources like the ACS and CRUK we can be confident on both counts. I don't think there's any dispute that these treatments are promoted as such is there? If there are sources that state otherwise, and so complicate this, we should of course take them into account ... Alexbrn talk 17:17, 23 September 2013 (UTC)

 * (Add) By the way, purely out of interest I did a "real world" test for Kombucha by Googling for "kombucha cancer cure" to see whether there was a belief "out there" that it's a cancer cure. You might want to do the same - prepare to be horrified! Alexbrn talk 17:23, 23 September 2013 (UTC)

 * I am horrified, but I have to remember that the Web is being dealt with. It is amazing how loose people can be with their use of the word "cure." That sort of thing is not allowed in other media, and wherever it might not be diligently enforced, some kind of tort complaint is probable to arise. You wrote, "I don't think there's any dispute that these treatments are promoted is there?" Is dispute required? Maybe. However, we could simply focus on products as it were that have both the attentions of ACS and CRUK, or the attentions of multiple like-organizations. Again, their specialties are medicine, not the tracking of other people's marketing and propaganda. --Lindberg 17:53, 23 September 2013 (UTC)

Regarding your MoS edit
As you accurately guessed, any edit to the primary manual of style --like any edit to a massively transcluded template-- is de facto controversial because of the number of pages it effects. More focused MoS's may not require the same care, but for the main one, always discuss first. --erachima talk 01:28, 8 October 2013 (UTC) As for being reverted, it's called Bold, Revert, Discuss for a reason and you shouldn't take offense at it. --erachima talk 02:00, 8 October 2013 (UTC)

 * That is sound reasoning, but rather tactical. What is the worst that could happen? -- Lindberg 01:45, 8 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Collaboration is the aim. Also, the reason for the SineBot posts above is that a signature must have a link, see WP:SIGLINK. Johnuniq (talk) 01:48, 8 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Reversion is a rather serious and caustic way to repair an edit. However, if it is standard operating procedure, one does what one has to do. -- Lindberg 01:53, 8 October 2013 (UTC)
 * The worst that could happen is that there's an existing consensus for another standard elsewhere, but nobody there notices your change for several months, by which point we have two different local standards that have become entrenched, and then it comes up at WP:FAR or some similar process and brings it to a screeching, grinding halt. In short, while the normal standard is "Be Bold" it's better to be cautious when it comes to changes with global impact.
 * Well, thank you, erachima. -- Lindberg 21:41, 8 October 2013 (UTC)

Signature-wise, your code should be something like Lindberg talk. --erachima talk 02:02, 8 October 2013 (UTC)

Roman numerals
Hi,

I've removed the two changes you made to World War I and World War II, as I think they would tend to confuse readers - I think it's fair to say that as many people will speak "World War I" as "world war one" as would read it as "first world war", and that both forms are valid. Roman numerals doesn't appear to discuss this sort of use in any detail, as far as I can tell. Emphasising pronunciation also gives the impression that writing "First World War" is incorrect, which certainly isn't the case!

Thanks, & hope this explains the removal. Andrew Gray (talk) 20:17, 30 April 2014 (UTC)

Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy
This is an esthetic or style issue, but in case it never occured to you, several of your changes to BSE turn active language to passive, concrete to abstract, narrative and chronological to atemporal and thematic. Such changes make the sentences look more like scientific literature but they don't actually increase the authoritativeness and I believe you end up communicating less to your reader. 68.221.1.97
 * Thanks for your input, I'd appreciate it if you could give concrete examples of what you're referring to. From memory, the BSE article was disjointed and didn't flow very well.

Improvements and constructive criticism of my edits are always welcome and appreciated. --Bk0 15:22, 3 May 2005 (UTC)

Methamphetamine

 * 1) There was no claim that gay men are more promiscious.
 * 2) Heterosexuals do not experience the sexual compulsion that gay men do on methamphetamine.  This is due to the method of introduction of crystal meth into our subculture is tied in with sex.  I am gay and I doubt that you are.  This is not a bigoted remark.
 * 3) Gay men are experience a rapid rise of HIV and syphalis (which cannot be transmitted introvenously) becuase of methamphetamine use.   ℬ astique ▼ talk

 * I have re-edited the section. The problem with sexual compulsion, which is not the same thing as promiscuity, has been amended to refer to gay and bisexual methamphetamine users.  I have removed dirty needles once again because it's not pertinent to this paragraph.  You can write a paragraph on HIV and Hepatitis C transmission if you like in which you discuss dirty needles.  The simple facts are:

 * An inordinate amount of gay and bisexual men are using crystal meth.
 * They are experiencing a rise in HIV and STD transmission because of the "pig-sex" in which they participate while on it, and rarely from exchanging needles. Most gay men who use crystal these days are smoking it.
 * I can cite many articles if you would like, as well as the rise in outreach programs toward gay men about methamphetamine and sex.
 * No amount of sugar coating and pretending the problem doesn't exist will make it go away.
 * Getting honest about it and telling the truth about it will make it go away. This is an article on methamphetamine.  Leaving this information out is a disservice to the article, as well as to problem.  I would like to see the problem go away, because I care about my community.  Maybe one day I can modify it to say, "during early part of the first decade of the 20th Century, meth was a particular problem among gay and bisexual men; but now...  I certainly hope so!

Which case would be worse, to have a neutral article tagged as disputed and reader in doubt where is the problem, or to have a totally biased article without a tag so that only knowledgeable person can detect it.

Ensuring consistency
I have edited the intro of this the anarchism article to point to anarcho-capitalism and removed the section on anarcho-capitalism. This is an attempt to mirror the status of the libertarianism article in regards to the lesser known libertarian socialism, please take a moment to look at each article and compare. It is my belief that given the featured status of the libertarianism article, its relative stability compared to this article, and the clear similarity of the subject matter, this is a road toward a legitimate compromise. I would ask that the two major catalysts of the ongiong edit war of this article (RJ and Hogeye), both of whom have also edited the libertarianism article, please ensure that you are consistent in any standard you apply to this article. Hopefully this will help us reach the point of stability that the civil editors of libertarianism have been able to do in the relative absence of constant antagonism.

Medicinal cocaine usage
Hi Bk0, to answer your question I live in Iowa and saw it used once.

As a phlebotamist I visit many patient rooms, at one room, a physician was performing some sort of procedure with cocaine as the topical anesthetic. I know this because the bottle sitting on the table was labeled cocaine sulfate (some %, don't remember). It was sort of remarkable, as I had never seen that before. That's about all I know on the subject. I am not familiar with specific procedures that call for cocaine, but I guess that usage is rather isolated and dependent on physician preference. You might want to do some investigative work and ask an in-hospital outpatient pharmacy, they'd know a lot better... but they might give you a doubletake. :-)

Done! thanks Martin 23:27, 19 December 2005 (UTC)

Hi Bko, regarding your revert of my contribution with the note "untrue; physicians can prescribe any approved drug for off-label purposes)", I wish this were true, but it isn't.

Saussurea involucrata
Hi Bk0 - I've added a taxobox for this, and also copied across the journal reference. Only problem is, the journal reference refers to S. laniceps, not Saussurea involucrata (the two are closely related, but not the same, both being accepted by the Flora of China checklist). Do you think the details should be moved across to a S. laniceps page? I also took out the 'above the snow line' reference as that's manifestly untrue (!), no plant can grow where there it permanent snow cover, it must be an error in the source literature. - MPF 18:50, 31 December 2005 (UTC)

Oscar Zeta Acosta
were you responsible for the inclusion of the thompson reference:
 * "In an interview Thompson is quoted as saying Acosta was stabbed and thrown overboard somewhere off the coast of Mexico. There are rumours in reference to what precipitated the murder." ?

If so, please find a citation for it or remove the reference as it slightly contradicts another users moderately more reputable contribution:
 * "What Thompson really said about Oscar: "...and someone onboard shot him two or three times in the stomach, with a .45. Then threw him over the side." "

It may be uncited, but at least it claims to present thompson's words.Shaggorama 20:31, 18 January 2006 (UTC)

Participant alert regarding Wikiproject on Advertising
The Wikiproject No Ads, created as a backlash against the Answers.com deal, has served an important function in providing a space for users to express their disagreement with the Foundation proposal. While the current controversies about userboxes raise questions about political and social advocacy on Wikipedia, there should be greater flexibility regarding advocacy about Wikipedia in the Wikipedia namespace. Reported and linked by Slashdot and other press sources as a unique and spontaneous occurence in Wikipedia history, it has apparently had some impact as, despite being scheduled to begin in January, not a peep has been heard about the trial and proposed sponsored link since the deal's controversial announcement months ago. Currently, however, there is an attempt to delete the project or move it off Wikipedia altogether. Since the Foundation has provided no additional information and has not attempted to answer the specific questions that participants in the project raised, it is unclear if the Answers.com deal has been abandoned or simply delayed. Until the situation becomes more clear, I believe the group should still have a place in the Wikipedia namespace. Sincerely, Tfine80 23:54, 9 February 2006 (UTC)

"People of Color" vs. "Black People"
I changed the the phrase "people of color" in the crack section to "black people". It has since been reverted. "People of color" is nothing more than a conjugate of "colored people" or simply "colored", which I think most people agree is antiquated at the least and at worst offensive. I was under the impression that it had gone the way of "coloreds only" drinking fountains, and so I was surprised to see it on Wikipedia. In this particular instance, it seems it is a vague, diluted euphemism whose overwrought purpose is to not step on any toes (I feel the same way about "African-American" as well). Further, it is such a broad description that it could include Arabs, Latins, Pakistanis, Samoans, etc. What's wrong with simply "black"? It's part of the real living language, unlike "people of color", and it has been in the popular lexicon for hundreds of years, not as a derogation but a descriptor. Thoughts?

Bold on cleanup templates
Hello, Bk0. I may be the only one, but I find the bold on the cleanup templates, like Template:Cleanup, to be somewhat jarring. Multiple tags are often added to articles, which enhances the effect. I checked some edit summaries and it looks like you added the bold text to all of them. There's nothing wrong with that, of course. I say go for it. :-) However, I think the problem with cleanup templates is that people intentionally ignore or don't understand them, not that they don't see them. Some templates can be on an article for quite some time, so making the article look pleasing in the meantime should be a consideration. On most templates, only the links and some key words used to be bold. If they are changed, I suggest changing them back to that. What do you think? -- Kjkolb 14:07, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

6-OXO on Bodybuilding Supplements
I saw it was you who added 6-OXO to the Bodybuilding Supplements article: "A relatively new drug/supplement marketed as 6-OXO is gaining popularity as a testosterone booster." Where did you get the information that it is "gaining popularity"? Is it something you have noted from your own experience or something you read? Jack Daw 01:15, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

That ref is titled: Deprenyl (selegiline), a selective MAO-B inhibitor with active metabolites; effects on locomotor activity, dopaminergic neurotransmission and firing rate of nigral dopamine neurons. Its abstract contains 7 or 8 times the term locomotor. I didn't explain the rv because it appeared to me that the deletion was an accident of your edit, since the ref pointed to that statement.
 * Also, when I rv-ed the isomer term it was w/o explaining because it seemed obvious to me that it was an edito since one should either write isomer or l-substance, not both, IMHO.

Replaceable fair use Image:Lophophora_williamsii_bwdrawing.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Lophophora_williamsii_bwdrawing.jpg. I noticed the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

 * 1) Go to the image description page and edit it to add, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
 * 2) On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on [ this link]. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, fair use images which could be replaced by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if not used in an article), per our Fair Use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Calliopejen1 18:05, 7 October 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Porthole-screenshot.png)
Thanks for uploading Image:Porthole-screenshot.png. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 17:45, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Mission of Burma-Vs-cover.jpg
Thank you for uploading Image:Mission of Burma-Vs-cover.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required by Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies for fair use. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it might be deleted by adminstrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 16:04, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

File permission problem with File:Vincent bs ad 1945.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Vincent bs ad 1945.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either
 * make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
 * Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to , stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add OTRS pending to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to .

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Non-free content, use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at File copyright tags, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in [ your upload log]. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy.

The Eagle Point Bridge was a very narrow two-lane automobile bridge that connected urban Dubuque, Iowa, and rural Grant County, Wisconsin. It was part of the US 61/US 151 route, and was a toll bridge. After the new Dubuque–Wisconsin Bridge was built in 1983, the Eagle Point Bridge was torn down. At the end, the toll was ten cents, both ways, collected on the Iowa side.

The bridge was located about 900 ft south of Lock and Dam No. 11, at the northern edge of Rhomberg Avenue in Dubuque, and connected to Eagle Point Road on the opposite side of the river. It was about 1 mi north of the present bridge. In 1968, the highway designation was removed from the bridge and a four-ton load limit was put in place. The bridge was still structurally sound after the new bridge was built, leading some to ask the bridge be kept open as a pedestrian or special use bridge, but the state of Iowa still tore the bridge down.

Several years after the demolition of the bridge, a restaurant known as the Tollbridge Inn was constructed at what was the Iowa end of the bridge. The restaurant operated for a number of years, until it was torn down to make way for future development.

The bridge was extensively documented in 1982 for the Historic American Engineering Record, archived at the Library of Congress. The documentation includes 81 black-and-white photos and 39 data pages detailing construction and history of the bridge.

SCISAT-1

SCISAT-1 is a Canadian satellite designed to make observations of the Earth's atmosphere. Its main instruments are an optical Fourier transform infrared spectrometer, the ACE-FTS Instrument, and an ultraviolet spectrophotometer, MAESTRO. These devices record spectra of the Sun, as sunlight passes through the Earth's atmosphere, making analyses of the chemical elements of the atmosphere possible.

Design and construction
SCISAT is a relatively small satellite weighing 150 kg. It is partly drum shaped and measures about 1.5 metres by 1.5 metres. The Canadian Space Agency (CSA) coordinated its design, launch and use. The main contractors were Bristol Aerospace of Winnipeg, Manitoba, who were prime contractor for the bus, and ABB Bomem Inc. of Quebec City, Quebec who developed the ACE-FTS instrument. The total development cost of SCISAT, as estimated by the CSA in 2003, was about CDN$60M. As of 20 years after launch, the satellite and its instruments are still operating.

ACE-FTS
The ACE-FTS instrument is the main payload of the SCISAT-1 spacecraft. The primary scientific goal of the Atmospheric Chemistry Experiment (ACE) is to measure and understand the chemical and dynamical processes that control the distribution of ozone in the upper troposphere and stratosphere. The principle of ACE measurement is the solar occultation technique. A high inclination (74 degrees), low Earth orbit 650 km will provide ACE coverage of tropical, mid-latitudes and polar regions.

The spectrometer is an adapted version of the classical Michelson interferometer using an optimized optical layout. Its highly folded double-pass optical design results in a very high performance instrument with a compact size. A signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) better than 100 is achieved, with a field-of-view (FOV) of 1.25 mrad and an aperture diameter of 100 mm (4"). A semiconductor laser is used as the metrology source of the interferometer sub-system.

The auxiliary Visible/Near-infrared Imager (VNI) monitors aerosols based on the extinction of solar radiation using two filtered detectors at 0.525 and 1.02 micrometres. The instrument also includes a Suntracker mechanism providing fine pointing toward the radiometric center of the Sun with stability better than 3 μrad. The ACE-FTS instrument was launched on August 12, 2003.

ABB was the prime contractor for the design and manufacturing of the ACE-FTS instrument.

MAESTRO
The Measurements of Aerosol Extinction in the Stratosphere and Troposphere Retrieved by Occultation (MAESTRO) instrument aboard SCISAT-1 measures the vertical distribution of ozone, nitrogen dioxide, water vapour, and aerosols in the Earth's atmosphere. MAESTRO consists of a UV-VIS-NIR spectrophotometer that measures the 285-1030 nm spectral region.

Orbit
SCISAT passes through the Earth's shadow 15 times per day, profiting from the occultation of the Sun to make a spectrographic analysis of the structure and chemistry of those parts of the upper atmosphere that are too high to be reached by balloons and airplanes and too low to be visited by orbiting satellites. This kind of analysis can help understand the depletion of the ozone layer and other upper atmosphere phenomena.

SCISAT was placed in low Earth orbit, or LEO, by a Pegasus rocket launched from a NASA Lockheed L-1011 carrier aircraft on August 12, 2003 from Vandenberg Air Force Base. Expected to operate for two to five years, it was still operational in 2018. Current information may be obtained from the ACE Mission Information for Public Data Release report.

The University of Waterloo, York University, the University of Toronto, and several other Canadian universities collaborated in the design of the experiments, and in several aspects of the testing of the satellite.

Manga College?
I was reading that manga-ka (I think Rumiko Takahashi was one) went to a sort of "manga college" in Shinjuku. I'm PRETTY sure it is called Koike Kazuo Juku. The address is:

Koike Kazuo Juku Tohoku Shinsha Shinjuku Biru Shinjuku 1-18-14 Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo-to, Nippon

 * Thanks!! --MasterPayne22 21:16, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
 * His own web site refers to "Koike Kazuo Gekigason-juku" Fg2 22:13, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

There's a photo on the Shinjuku page called "view of Kabukicho at night" but it looks like a view of Koshukaido at night DDD DDD 03:52, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

Sinzyuku = 525 google hits, sufficient enough for it to stay. WhisperToMe 03:21, 19 May 2004 (UTC)

 * No, it's redundant and pointless, and Shinjuku is the standard English spelling and the romanization used by the Japanese themselves, quite apart from the rules of Kunreishiki. "Sinzyuku" is incorrect.  Also, it's standard practice in Wikipedia not to use abbreviations like "lit.". Exploding Boy 14:57, May 19, 2004 (UTC)

 * SUSTAINED! Sekicho 12:52, May 20, 2004 (UTC)

 * Exploding Boy obviously knows better than the
 * japanese themselves, right? -- Anonymous

 * Uh...well, when the Japanese use the same thing and it can be easily proven, he's obviously onto something. Go to Tokyo sometime, take any subway to Shinjuku and it'll be romanticised as such, alongisde kanji as well.
 * I think you mean 'romanised'. "Shinjuku" is the overwhelming consensus among those who romanize Japanese. It's also the closest to the correct pronunciation, which is a good enough reason to keep it. - Richardcavell 13:11, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

Shinjuku's "Ni-chome" area is one of the largest gay nightlife areas in Japan, but it isn't mentioned in the article. Is it worth including? Not only that, but Shinjuku has one of the largest concentrations of "blues" and other music-themed bars in all of Tokyo, and perhaps, Japan.

1. Why take out "western Tokyo"? Shinjuku is most definitely in western Tokyo.
 * Shinjuku is nowhere near western Tokyo! lol Look at a map. It is EASTERN Tokyo!  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 184.155.130.147 (talk) 20:30, 6 September 2014 (UTC)

2. "Capital of Tokyo"? Very strange. Shinjuku has no official status as such, nor do people commonly refer to it that way. This is only slightly less bizarre than saying Manhattan is the capital of New York City.
 * This confusion is a result of the fact that the English Wikipedia does not make any distinction between Tokyo1 (Tōkyō, c. 9 mill. inhabitants <650 km²) and Tokyo2 prefecture (Tōkyō-to, c. 13 mill. inhabitants, >2000 km²) and defines Tokyo as "one of the 47 prefectures of Japan", i.e. Tokyo2, but then goes on with statements such as "the second most expensive city" which only apply to Tokyo1.
 * Shinjuku is in Western Tokyo1 (in Wikipedian English that would be something like: Western parts of the area of special wards of Tokyo, Western parts of former Tokyo City), but definitely not in Western Tokyo2 as Tokyo1 covers the easternmost parts of (mainland) Tokyo2.
 * Accordingly, the Tokyo in "capital of Tokyo" refers to the prefecture (Tokyo2); but as you can see from my last edit, the prefectural government considers Tokyo1 as a whole to be the capital of Tokyo2 – if you stick to Wikipedian English: "Tokyo is the capital of Tokyo." which is at least as bizarre as "Manhattan is the capital of New York City"; it could be translated to English as "Tokyo is the capital of Tokyo prefecture" (or "Metropolis", if you insist on replacing the Wikipedian distortion with an officiar one: But who would consider Iwo Jima, Lake Okutama or Mount Kumotori part of any "Metropolis"?). Alternatively, if you want to give Tokyo2 precedence you could say "Tokyo City is the capital of Tokyo." – but then you would have to disambiguate Tokyo CityA (the now dissolved administrative unit, that formally bore that name as Tōkyō-shi) from Tokyo CityB (the city that now covers the area of Tokyo CityA, consists administratively of 23 special wards without* common institutions, but is still called Tokyo1 by most people outside en.Wikipedia.)
 * Actually, there are some common institutions of Tokyo's wards, e.g. for organizing horse races or for hiring public servants, but those are a cooperation between municipalities, not anything that can be considered an administrative unit.

outdated info; unsourced claims
some guidebook-like promotional wording ("best-known" this-or-that; etc) & i'll come back & touch it up myself when i can... the section about Shinjuku station: no mention of shinkansen etc? Narita express etc?... also, no mention at all about the bus lines of importance originating there? "highway buses" connecting tokyo with basically EVERYwhere in Japan? & the fact that there's no formal bus "depot" but instead most bus lines board from curbside bus stops filling the side-streets to the west of the station all the way up to Chuo-Koen? (no mention of THAT either; shinjuku's "Central Park"; and no mention about the weekend flea market, homeless enclaves, and political protests which occur there?) & the fact that Tokyo Marathon's starting point is in front of City Hall? & why is it not referred to as such within the article? (only as "government" building)... its known locally as such (City Hall), & even the Oedo subway stop is named "Tochomae" ("in front of city hall")...  & no brief background of Shinjuku Gyoen's origin? (by the way, Shinjuku's borders are pretty well-defined by major thoroughfares; anyone able to tackle that?) most of these details can be considered "common knowledge" forgiving any lack of sources for now; otherwise i'll keep an eye out for sources & update when i can. unfortunately not now~ lots to be done to get this important article up to date! best wishes Japanglish (talk) 15:19, 15 April 2014 (UTC)

Gal (unit)

The gal (symbol: Gal), sometimes called galileo after Galileo Galilei, is a unit of acceleration typically used in precision gravimetry. The gal is defined as 1 centimeter per second squared (1 cm/s2). The milligal (mGal) and microgal (μGal) are respectively one thousandth and one millionth of a gal.

The gal is not part of the International System of Units (known by its French-language initials "SI"). In 1978 the CIPM decided that it was permissible to use the gal "with the SI until the CIPM considers that [its] use is no longer necessary". Use of the gal was deprecated by the standard ISO 80000-3:2006, now superseded.

The gal is a derived unit, defined in terms of the centimeter–gram–second (CGS) base unit of length, the centimeter, and the second, which is the base unit of time in both the CGS and the modern SI system. In SI base units, 1 Gal is equal to 0.01 m/s2.

The acceleration due to Earth's gravity at its surface is 976 to 983 Gal, the variation being due mainly to differences in latitude and elevation. Standard gravity is 980.665 Gal. Mountains and masses of lesser density within the Earth's crust typically cause variations in gravitational acceleration of tens to hundreds of milligals (mGal). The gravity gradient (variation with height) above Earth's surface is about 3.1 μGal per centimeter of height ($3.1 s^{−2}$), resulting in a maximal difference of about 2 Gal (0.02 m/s2) from the top of Mount Everest to sea level.

Unless it is being used at the beginning of a sentence or in paragraph or section titles, the unit name gal is properly spelled with a lowercase g. As with the torr and its symbol, the unit name (gal) and its symbol (Gal) are spelled identically except that the latter is capitalized.
