Season page
Good job so far on the 2008 Rochester Red Wings season page. I'll be curious to see how this goes over with the baseball wikiproject as they are generally opposed to most coverage of minor league baseball. I believe this is the first season page for a minor league team on Wikipedia. I recently began making pages for the Kinston Indians' seasons over at Baseball Reference's wiki, the Bullpen. I encourage you to contribute over there as well if you have the time. Good luck on this page. Kinston eagle (talk) 12:53, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Just like to point out that it was User:Branson03 that started the MiLB season pages. Proper credit to him. But thanks!-Philatio (talk) 04:43, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

Babe Ruth
That one user might have been confused. Ruth played for the minor league Baltimore Orioles, as well as Providence. Obviously, he never played for the major league Orioles, as the Browns didn't move to Ruth's home town until 6 years after he died. Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? 02:38, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Didn't even think about that! -Philatio (talk) 03:15, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
 * You were right to revert it, though. They don't normally list minor league clubs in the infoboxes. Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? 03:36, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I just meant I didn't even think about the fact that the Orioles weren't even a ML team at the time! Philatio (talk) 03:41, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

I turned in that one user "Imakewikipediacrazy" at WP:AIV. Although not active at that moment, he was a vandalism-only account, and I thought that fact along with his policy-defying name might buy him a permanent block. It did. Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? 11:07, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

Riccardo Ingram
I don't know how to shrink the photo in an infobox. I don't get why it's stretching it beyond its normal size. You might try asking an admin and see where they send you. Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? 05:28, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

 * In the mlbretired template, there's an optional parameter for image width. I added it and set it to 150px as the image is only 159px wide to begin with. Daniel Case (talk) 13:45, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

Pater Patriae
I have given the user a warning that they're getting close to 3rr. You can, of course, make one more revert but you did the right thing going to me first. If this continues, we can protect the page. Consider tagging the edit with fact instead of just reverting. Daniel Case (talk) 21:37, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

User name
Hehehehe. Your user name has to be one of the coolest I've ever seen. CHuckle. CHuckle  ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦       $1,000,000? 10:06, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
 * I, on the other hand, have concerns that it might violate our username policy. While I don't personally find it offensive, it is potentially so, which can "make harmonious editing difficult or impossible". You may want to consider having it changed, Phil.  Powers T 12:58, 27 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Yes. See WP:UNC, which will send you to Changing username.  Powers T 21:52, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

Stew Cliburn
..How the heck can you tell which twin is in the center and which isn't, anyway?  Ksy92003  ( talk ) 22:19, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Stu has curly hair in the back, while Stan's is evenly cut. At the start of the year Stu had a little more of a tan, but I think they've evened out by now. Figured out who was who in the first place by watching who would goto the mound to talk to the pitcher and who went to the mound to take the pitcher out. -Philatio (talk) 20:33, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

Problems with image uploads from Flickr
Hi, thanks for uploading so many great images onto Wikipedia. However, I noticed some problems with some of your recent uploads from Flickr. The licenses that you put on some of the baseball photographs when you uploaded them are not the same as the licenses that these photos have on Flickr. If you click on the blue "some rights reserved" link at the bottom of each Flickr page, you can see the detailed description of an image's license. If the license says "non-commercial" and/or "no derivatives", then the image is not a free license that is suitable for Wikipedia. Here is a list of the Creative Commons licenses that are not suitable for Wikipedia.

These are the problematic images. Their Flickr licenses mean that they are not suitable for Wikipedia. I haven't tagged them for deletion yet so that you can compare the Wikipedia licenses with the Flickr ones. I suggest that you tag them for deletion. (They qualify for speedy deletion under criterion I9, Db-i9). I'll tag them myself in a day or so, if you don't get around to it. I hope this is helpful. If I can help you with anything in the future, feel free to leave a message on my talk page. All the best, Bláthnaid  22:14, 29 June 2008 (UTC)

 * I've had the same experience on Flickr, where I've come across a great image and then realised that its license isn't compatible with Wikipedia. It's definitely annoying when that happens! One of the images you uploaded is OK, if that's any consolation. Thanks for taking some of the other images out of their articles. There's an instruction page here about obtaining images for Wikipedia, if you ever want to do that. If you need to double-check any Flickr image's license to see if it can be uploaded here, feel free to drop me a note. :-) Bláthnaid  18:34, 30 June 2008 (UTC)

Re: Andrew Cuomo
Hi, an editor has removed most of that section, so there are a few more eyes on the article now. What is left in the much shortened paragraph looks OK. There are some more sources here and here if you want to add them to the article. If you notice more unsourced or badly sourced contentious information about this person is being added to the article, you can remove the information straight away under the biographies of living people policy -- "Unsourced or poorly sourced contentious material about living persons — whether the material is negative, positive, or just questionable — should be removed immediately and without waiting for discussion".

Image sourcing issue
Hi, Phil. I took the liberty of moving your image File:EBnursery.jpg to Commons (as File:Ellwanger & Barry nursery advertisement.jpg), but an editor there has expressed concern about the lack of a source on the image. Do you know where that image came from? Without a source, the file risks deletion. Powers T 03:47, 1 March 2009 (UTC)
 * The image is from their catalog which is all pre-1923 public domain stuff I assume. Phil5329 (talk)
 * Hi, similar issue about File:Rochester - 1865 flood.jpg, could you provide some sourcing info, even though the copyright status is obviously ok? Thanks a lot. --Eusebius (talk) 12:34, 28 April 2009 (UTC)

Marlo Stanfield
Regarding this tag. The paragraph begins "In the mid-1980s, Timmirror Stanfield was a major Baltimore drug trafficker", the sentence you tagged is the ending "Marlo is based on this real life criminal.", referring to Timmirror. Darrenhusted (talk) 19:13, 22 August 2009 (UTC)

Billy Martin
How exactly does it not fit in there? Dude was a lush--he didn't "have a drinking problem" he was a full fledged card carrying alcoholic. Why PC up his life. He died in a car accident (though not driving--so they say) after basically drinking everything but Listerine, Mantle basically said Billy was an alkie. It's sad and all but it's the truth. Why put it in there as a "problem", a "problem" would be drinking every weekend...Martin drank so much he almost turned Kentucky dry.--seattlehawk94 (talk) 10:27, 29 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Fixed. I don't think the original writer meant to suggest that Martin wasn't an alcoholic. I don't think anyone would deny that he was an alcoholic. -Phil5329 (talk) 18:30, 30 August 2009 (UTC)

Scott Hall
Dude, sorry for being a bit pissed off, but I put that link on there over 8 months ago. I had a dispute over Scott Hall's Official site with the person now running it, and they cut me out. So now I guess she saw that my chat was on his wikipedia and she took it off, with no right. It clearly states that it is a fan chat and not official. I believe it should stay, since there really aren't any mediums through which fans of Scott Hall can chat, comfortably. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Outsiderdf (talk • contribs) 03:08, 2 September 2009 (UTC)

I understand where you are coming from, but it is not about self promotion or promotion of anything. It is again, to provide a medium for Scott Hall fans to chat. I receive NO PERKS or MONEY from this chat. Nor am I trying to make it into something it's not. Outsiderdf (talk) 03:18, 2 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Well technically the link has been inserted to promote the website, otherwise why put it there? Therefore it technically violates the SPAM rules. -Phil5329 (talk) 03:23, 2 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Well technically, then, why put any link anywhere? LOL. Why are the other links left there? Aren't they promoting their site? The links are there to let people know about it. The chat used is fully made and owned by an independent website and not mine. On that website it clearly states that the chats are not to be used for any kind of promotion or money-making.

File source problem with File:Bobewing.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Bobewing.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear.

If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of that website's terms of use of its content. However, if the copyright holder is a party unaffiliated from the website's publisher, that copyright should also be acknowledged.

If you have uploaded other files, consider verifying that you have specified sources for those files as well. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link.

I'm not sure that the company is notable even with the inclusion of Michi Henning. Were this a movie, for example, the inclusion of one "star" amongst other unnotables would be called stunt casting; I believe this to be much the same. While ICE may meet software notability (and nothing wrong with that), there's no indicator that its parent company does, and I'd have to see more on the article to be convinced otherwise. That being said, I'm rather easy to convince in this regard, and if it doesn't look like microadvertising (which it seems to), that's my main concern.--み使い Mitsukai 17:14, 7 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Didn't think that you were involved with them, and there's no rule saying you can't mention it even if you are, so that's not an issue. My concern was more that it was a relatively recent article and that it "felt" like advertising, so I took what I thought were the appropriate steps. If you wish to leave them, that's fine, but if I'm thinking that it feels like advertising, so might others, so some expanding of the article might be in order to prevent this.  Hope this helps.--み使い Mitsukai 19:54, 7 March 2006 (UTC)

Regarding the article covering LTTE
Hi, just wanted to draw your attention to the current status of the article regarding the LTTE. I am trying to keep POV tags on it as it contains several statements that I consider poorly documented (LTTE involved in drug smuggling, forced prostitution and cooperation with Al Quaida). To make my position clear (as I also have done on the article's talk page) I am no friend of the LTTE - I consider their organisation in several ways have fascists and anti-democratic sides that I am strongly against. However I do believe that Wikipedia should be based on facts, not "talk on the town". I dont want to waste too much time over that article, but at least I will try to keep the POV tags from what I consider biased edits from sinhala chauvinists. If you could have a look and engage (or critizise me if I am wrong) I would be happy about that. Ulflarsen 08:09, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

Are you certain that this proposed deletion, without debate, will be clearly non-controversial? Bearian (talk) 23:19, 13 August 2014 (UTC)
 * I'm open to the idea that it's not, but it's an orphan article with basically no references, about an author who has only self-published and is not really mentioned anywhere outside of her own website and a couple of websites that charge for coverage, so I'm pretty sure it's non-notable. Feel free to remove to notice and we'll have a debate if you think it's worthwhile, though.

Speedy deletion nomination of Bill Hicks

A tag has been placed on Bill Hicks requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about something invented/coined/discovered by the article's creator or someone they know personally, and it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia.

KING-TV

KING-TV (channel 5) is a television station in Seattle, Washington, United States, affiliated with NBC. It is owned by Tegna Inc. alongside Everett-licensed independent station KONG (channel 16). The two stations share studios at the Home Plate Center in the SoDo district of Seattle; KING-TV's transmitter is located in the city's Queen Anne neighborhood.

Debuting as the first television station in the Pacific Northwest, channel 5 was purchased by and became the flagship station of Dorothy Bullitt's King Broadcasting Company eight months into broadcasting; the company still exists as a license holder for its properties under Tegna ownership. The station became an NBC affiliate in 1959 and has generally led the Seattle television market since.

History
Channel 5 first took to the air as KRSC-TV on November 25, 1948, becoming the first television station in the Pacific Northwest (within six years, it became the Pacific Northwest's first color broadcaster on July 1, 1954 ). The station was originally owned by Palmer K. Leberman's Radio Sales Corporation, which also operated KRSC radio (1150 AM, now KKNW, and FM 98.1, now KING-FM); the original callsign was derived from Leberman's company. The first broadcast on channel 5 was a live remote of a Thanksgiving Day high school football game – the telecast was plagued with technical difficulties, but local viewers reported being impressed nonetheless. Channel 5 was originally a primary CBS affiliate, and carried secondary affiliations with NBC, ABC and DuMont.

Eight months after the television station debuted, KRSC-TV and KRSC-FM were purchased by King Broadcasting Company, owners of KING radio (1090 AM, now KPTR) and the original KING-FM (94.9, frequency now occupied by KUOW-FM), for $375,000 in May 1949. The station changed its callsign to KING-TV to match its radio sisters (according to legend, King Broadcasting president Dorothy Bullitt purchased the KING call letters while on a fishing boat). For many years, the stations' logo was "King Mike", an anthropomorphized microphone in ermine robes and a crown, drawn by cartoonist Walt Disney  (its sister stations in Portland, Oregon, KGW-AM-FM-TV, used a similar logo, called "Pioneer Mike"; the King Mike logo was later brought back for KING's 50th anniversary in 1998 and still appears in promotional announcements to this day).

Once the Federal Communications Commission (FCC)-imposed freeze on television station license awards ended in 1952, KING-TV lost its monopoly in the market. During 1953, the Seattle–Tacoma area received three new stations: KTNT-TV (channel 11, now KSTW) debuted in March as the market's CBS outlet; while NBC went to KMO-TV (channel 13, now KCPQ), which signed on in August. NBC moved a few months later to KOMO-TV (channel 4), which went on the air in December. By the end of the year, KING-TV was left with poor-performing ABC and DuMont, the latter of which ceased operations in 1956. Subsequently, Bullitt lobbied NBC for a group affiliation for her stations, and in October 1958, KING-TV and KGW-TV in Portland began carrying NBC programming. In Seattle, channel 5 shared NBC and ABC with KOMO-TV for most of the 1958–59 television season. On September 27, 1959, KING-TV became an exclusive NBC station and KOMO-TV affiliated with ABC full-time. KING-TV is one of a few handful of stations in the country to have held a primary affiliation with all of the "Big Three" networks.

Dissatisfied with Stimson Bullitt's management style, Dorothy Bullitt, and Mr. Bullitt's sisters, arranged for his voluntary resignation from King Broadcasting in 1972. Stimson sold his company shares to his sisters, Harriet and Patsy. He then received control of the family's real estate interests. Ancil Payne, who had served as general manager of the company's Portland stations since 1965, became president and CEO. By the 1970s and 1980s, KING-TV was the flagship of a growing regional media empire which at various times included ventures in publishing, the film industry, cable television systems (under the name of King Videocable, the assets of which have by now been absorbed into Comcast) and even various timber assets in the Far East.

Locally produced programs that debuted on the station during the 1970s and 1980s included Seattle Today/Good Company, a mid-morning talk show hosted by Cliff Lenz and Shirley Hudson and later by Susan Michaels and Colby Chester; Seattle Tonight, Tonite!, hosted by Ross McGowan and later Dick Klinger; Almost Live!, originally a Sunday night talk and comedy show hosted by Ross Shafer, that later became an ensemble sketch comedy show (that eventually moved to Saturday nights) after Shafer left to become host of The Late Show on Fox; and a local Evening Magazine franchise, first hosted by Penny LeGate and Brian Tracey. Of these, only Evening Magazine (now entitled simply Evening) exists today. How Come?, a half-hour early Sunday evening family television program hosted by Al Wallace, won several awards during its run during the 1970s and early 1980s. The show covered topics on how things were made or done in the world. Dick Klinger hosted the show after Al Wallace died.

King Broadcasting's stations included KGW radio and television in Portland, KREM-TV in Spokane, KTVB-TV in Boise, KHNL-TV and KFVE in Honolulu and KYA radio in San Francisco. Long-time station-owner Dorothy Bullitt died in June 1989. Dorothy Bullitt's daughters Harriet Bullitt and Priscilla "Patsy" Bullitt Collins decided to sell the King assets in 1992—eventually selling King Broadcasting (including KING, KREM, KGW, KTVB, KHNL/KFVE and the cable provider assets) to The Providence Journal Company. KING-TV and other King Broadcasting stations later became Belo properties as a result of that company's merger with The Providence Journal Company in 1997. As a result, Belo was forced to divest KIRO-TV to Cox Enterprises in order to keep the higher rated KING-TV.

Bonneville International Corporation purchased KING (AM) in 1994. During the 1990s, Almost Live!, as it became a pure comedy show, launched the careers of Bill Nye the Science Guy, Joel McHale (of The Soup fame) nationally and locally, Pat Cashman and John Keister (who replaced Ross Shafer as host of that show in 1988). KING-TV was also the home for Watch This!, a fast-paced Emmy Award-winning show aimed at children and teenagers; the show lasted five years and was hosted by local anchors, Jim Dever and Mimi Gan. On December 18, 1995, King Broadcasting launched Northwest Cable News (NWCN), which was a 24-hour regional cable news channel available primarily to cable providers in Washington, Oregon, and Idaho with lesser cable coverage in Alaska, Montana and California. Almost Live! ended after 15 years in 1999.

Gannett/Tegna, move to SoDo
On June 13, 2013, the Gannett Company announced that it would acquire Belo. The sale was completed on December 23. On June 29, 2015, Gannett's newspaper business was spun out, with KING-TV and Gannett's former TV properties renamed Tegna.

In April 2014, KING-TV announced plans to sell its South Lake Union headquarters and re-locate, taking advantage of a booming real estate market in the South Union Lake area. In September 2014, it was reported that the station was planning to lease multiple floors at the Home Plate Center, a complex in the SoDo area of Seattle, and located across the street from T-Mobile Park (formerly Safeco Field). In March 2015, Gannett confirmed that KING, KONG, and NWCN would move to the lower three floors of the Home Plate Center, and announced plans for KING-TV to utilize the lower floor for the market's first street-side studio. The former facilities were sold to Kilroy Realty for nearly $50 million, and were demolished during the summer of 2016, and would be replaced by mixed-use developments.

The choice of a smaller location was in response to concerns that the large size of its previous facility inhibited collaboration. The ground floor contains two studios: a street-side studio for KING-TV's news programming, and the other for local productions such as New Day Northwest. The newsroom is located on the second floor, and contained NWCN's main set. The new facility was equipped with new Grass Valley master control, graphics, and playout hardware, and Sony automation equipment. After broadcasting its final newscast from the North Dexter Avenue studio on February 12, 2016, KING quietly transitioned its master control to Home Plate Center during that night's broadcast of Late Night with Seth Meyers, and began broadcasting newscasts from the new facility the following morning.

On January 6, 2017, NWCN was shut down due to declining viewership, the free online streaming of KING and KONG's newscasts, and the reluctance of local cable systems to pay more for the channel to keep it operating.

Programming
KING-TV relies less on syndicated programming and more on the station's newscasts and local programming. As of December 2023, KING-TV broadcasts only two syndicated programs during its weekday schedule, Extra and Inside Edition. Despite this, KING-TV was airing $3 1/2$ hours of syndicated programming prior to September 2013.

On New Year's Eve, KING-TV broadcasts coverage of the fireworks show on the Space Needle.

Sports programming
KING-TV opted not to carry NBC's telecasts of the Stanley Cup Finals in 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2013, when the games began at 5 p.m. Pacific time, choosing to instead air its regular lineup of local newscasts and syndicated shows. KONG picked up the NBC telecasts of the games, and CBC Television's broadcasts of the games were available to most cable providers in the region through the network's Vancouver owned-and-operated station CBUT. For the 2007 and 2008 Stanley Cup Finals, however, KING-TV aired NBC's Saturday night telecasts, while KONG aired the other NBC telecasts. As for the 2009 Stanley Cup Finals, KING-TV aired games 1, 2 and 5 while KONG aired games 6 and 7.

KING-TV has been the official television partner of the Seattle Seahawks since 2022, airing preseason games and team-focused shows; previous stints with the team were held from 1981 to 2000 and again from 2004 to 2011 (sister station KONG carried Seahawks preseason games in 2003 and 2004). The station also airs Seahawks games through NBC's broadcast contract with the NFL (via Sunday Night Football; it has also served as the team's unofficial home station, carrying most games from 1977 to 1997 when the team played in the AFC, which NBC held the broadcast rights to in those years). Notably, this included the team’s appearance in Super Bowl XLIX. Both KING-TV and KONG served as official television broadcasters of the city's Major League Soccer club Seattle Sounders FC from 2009 to 2013, in which KONG aired a weekly magazine program on Sunday nights during the season called Sounders FC Weekly, and was rebroadcast Mondays on sister cable channel Northwest Cable News.

KING-TV also broadcast all Seattle SuperSonics games covered through NBC's NBA broadcast contract from 1990 to 2002, including the team's 1996 NBA Finals appearance. It also aired select Seattle Mariners games via NBC's MLB broadcast contract from 1977 to 1989, and for the postseason only from 1995 to 2000.

Beginning in 2024, KING-TV will air select Washington Huskies football games through Big Ten Saturday Night. It will also air select Seattle Kraken games as part of the team's new regional deal, which also made KONG the new flagship station for Kraken telecasts.

News operation
KING-TV presently broadcasts 46 hours of locally produced newscasts each week (with seven hours each weekday, six hours on Saturdays and five hours on Sundays).

In 1999, to compete against KOMO-TV, KING-TV began broadcasting its newscasts in high definition; at the time it only had one HD-capable studio camera. In April 2007, KING-TV upgraded all of its studio cameras, graphics and weather system to high definition and began broadcasting its public affairs programming in HD as well. Field reports continued to be broadcast in standard definition (480i converted to 1080i HD for telecast) but were taped in a 16:9 aspect ratio, giving the appearance of high-definition. According to KING-TV, it is "Seattle's First HD Newscast".

Following its sale to the company, KING-TV adopted Gannett's standardized newscast presentation (which used a color coding system modeled upon co-owned newspaper USA Today.

Subchannels
The station's signal is multiplexed: {{legend|#DFEBF6|Broadcast on behalf of another station}}

On December 6, 2011, Belo signed an agreement with the Live Well Network to affiliate with digital subchannels of KING-TV and Spokane sister station KSKN; Live Well Network replaced Universal Sports on digital subchannel 5.2 on January 1, 2012, as Universal Sports transitioned into a cable and satellite channel during the first quarter of 2012. Justice Network replaced Live Well Network on 5.2 in January 2015.

Analog-to-digital conversion
KING-TV ceased regular programming over its analog signal, on June 12, 2009, as part of the federally mandated transition from analog to digital television. As the "analog nightlight" station for the Seattle–Tacoma market, it aired a loop reminding viewers to get a digital converter box on analog channel 5 until June 26, 2009. The station's digital signal remained on its pre-transition UHF channel 48, using virtual channel 5.

Canadian and out-of-market coverage
KING-TV is one of five Seattle television stations that are available in Canada on satellite providers Bell Satellite TV and Shaw Direct, and is available to most cable subscribers in the Vancouver–Victoria, British Columbia, area as the NBC affiliate. The station is also carried on several cable providers in southeastern Alaska and northwestern Oregon, as well as in the Yakima DMA cities of Cle Elum and Ellensburg, with NBC programming and some syndicated shows blacked out due to FCC regulations. KING-TV is also carried in The Bahamas on REV TV.

The Star (2002 film)

The Star (Звезда, translit. Zvezda) is a 2002 Russian film directed by Nikolai Lebedev, a large modern project of Mosfilm. It is based on a short story of the same name by Emmanuil Kazakevich, about a group of Soviet scouts working behind enemy lines during Operation Bagration in World War II. The story had previously been made into a 1953 film of the same name.

Aleksei Kravchenko won a government award for his role in this film.

Plot
A team of Soviet scouts is sent behind enemy lines to find the location of the German armor forces. The Soviets wait until night, and open up with an artillery barrage. As the guns fire, the team advances. The team successfully slips behind enemy lines. Many dramatic scenes follow. In one, a German soldier is captured and interrogated. In another, the team calls an airstrike on German positions, causing great damage and casualties. One man even kills a German soldier with his pistol during the air attack. This tract of scenes finds the main characters successfully finding the location of the German armor. They are eventually cornered in a barn, with Germans attacking on all sides. During the battle, the team leader sends a radio message, telling the location of enemy armor. The team is eventually overrun and wiped out.

Pixlet

Pixlet is a video codec created by Apple and based on wavelets, designed to enable viewing of full-resolution, HD movies in real time at low DV data rates. According to Apple's claims, it allows for a 20–25:1 compression ratio. Similar to DV, it does not use interframe compression, making it suitable for previewing in production and special effects studios. It is designed to be an editing codec; however, low bitrates make it poorly suited to broadcast use.

The name Pixlet is a contraction of 'Pixar wavelet'. When it was introduced by Steve Jobs at Worldwide Developers Conference 2003, it was said that the codec was developed at the request of animation company Pixar.

A Power Macintosh with at least a 1 GHz PowerPC G4 processor is required for real-time playback of half-resolution high-definition video (960x540).

Pixlet, while part of the cross-platform QuickTime, is only available on Macs running Mac OS X v10.3 or later. QuickTime X cannot decode Pixlet files.

FFmpeg version 3.3 and later can decode Pixlet files. On March 21, 2019, Apple announced that Pixlet is among the codecs that will no longer be supported in its own software after the successor to macOS Mojave is released, due to the transition to 64-bit-only software. In the same announcement, Apple noted that third-party developers could maintain support by building support directly into their apps.

Les Maîtres du temps

Les Maîtres du temps ( The Masters of Time, a.k.a. Time Masters; Herrscher der Zeit in German; Az idő urai in Hungarian) is a 1982 independent animated science fiction film directed by René Laloux and designed by Mœbius. It is based on the 1958 science fiction novel L'Orphelin de Perdide (The Orphan of Perdide) by Stefan Wul.

The film centres on a boy, Piel, who is stranded on Perdide, a desert planet where giant killer hornets live. He awaits rescue by the space pilot Jaffar, the exiled prince Matton, his sister Belle and Jaffar's old friend Silbad who are trying to reach Perdide and save Piel before it is too late.

Plot
A man named Claude drives a vehicle across the planet Perdide. He sends a message to his friend Jaffar, telling him that his wife Annie was killed by indigenous monster hornets. After a crash wrecks his vehicle and he cannot extricate himself, Claude lets his son Piel down from the wreckage and hands him an interstellar transceiver, telling him that it is named "Mike" and will talk to him, and to do whatever Mike tells him to do. After Claude sends Piel to the Dolongs, a nearby forest which repulses the hornets, the vehicle explodes.

On his spaceship, Jaffar receives Claude's last message. Before heading for Perdide, he decides to seek out his friend Silbad, who has experience in living on Perdide. Jaffar's passengers, Prince Matton and his sister, Princess Belle, have been deposed from their planet; they bring with them a treasure the Prince took along to fund his restoration. Matton hates being diverted.

Jaffar, Silbad, Matton and Belle begin communicating with Piel to give him advice. On Silbad's planet, they witness the metamorphosis of an organism into multiple empathic, sentient homunculi, two of whom, Yula and Jad, stow away on Jaffar's spacecraft seeking adventure. Unbeknownst to everyone, Yula and Jad play with and then dispose of the treasure via the airlock. Matton nearly convinces Piel to drown himself in a lake, but is discovered by Belle. She stuns Matton and talks Piel to safety.

Jaffar plans to use the gravitational pull of the Blue Comet to reach Perdide. In order to rendezvous with it, Jaffar pilots his craft to the planet Gamma 10. Matton escapes in a shuttlecraft to the surface of Gamma 10, which is inhabited by identical angels. They capture both Matton and Jaffar, who followed in a space lifeboat, and intend to throw them into the amorphous being which controls the planet. Although they cannot rescue Jaffar, Yula and Jad forewarn him: As they contact the being, its victims get dominated by it, lose all sense of individuality and become angels. They instruct Jaffar and Matton to resist being assimilated by exuding all the hate and contempt they can muster. Matton leaps into the being and sacrifices himself, destroying the creature and causing the angels to revert to their original forms.

Rescued by Yula and Jad, the former captives are taken onboard Jaffar's ship. Meanwhile, Piel befriends a local creature, a hyponiterix, which accompanies him. A patrol cruiser of the Interplanetary Reform catches up with Jaffar's ship, pursuing the royals and the treasure Matton stole. Jaffar considers that the rescued spacefarers from Gamma 10 should hijack the Reform cruiser and take it for themselves. During the discussion of this plan, one of the rescued from Gamma 10, Onyx the Digeed of Gnaz, is revealed to be able to change his shape to resemble any object. Onyx will impersonate the missing treasure, allowing the escapees to access the Reformist ship.

Jaffar's vessel is boarded, and as he presents the "captured" pirates and the fake treasure to the Reform commander, no one can converse with Piel, who begins to wander without supervision. Jaffar's crew later attempt to contact Piel, who has lost his transceiver and the hyponiterix inside a cave filled with predatory tentacles. Despondent, Piel wanders back to the lakeside, which takes him out of the forest, and is attacked by the hornets which killed his parents. Jaffar's ship closes on her destination, but the planet is being transported through time by a race of aliens known as the Masters of Time. Perdide and everything on it, including Piel, is sent back 60 years through time.

The effect of time travel renders the unprotected crew of Jaffar's ship unconscious. They awake in a space-station, where they have been treated, but Silbad is dying. Yula and Jad telepathically discover that Silbad is actually a now-elderly Piel. At the time Perdide was displaced, Piel was nearly killed by the hornets before a passing spacefarer, who was investigating this recently appearing planet, came to his rescue. However, due to his trauma, Piel lost his childhood memories. Shortly after this revelation, Silbad dies. His funeral is attended by a Master of Time.

Differences from the novel
The motion picture story is based on the novel L'Orphelin de Perdide (1958) by the French writer Stefan Wul.

In the original novel, the character of Piel was also named Claude, like his father. Laloux changed this to distinguish father and son.

Meat grinder

A  meat grinder (also called a "meat mincer" in the UK) is a kitchen appliance for mincing (fine chopping) and/or mixing of raw or cooked meat, fish, vegetables or similar food. It replaces tools like the mincing knife (which are also used in the preparation of minced meat, filling, etc.). The food to be minced is placed into a funnel, which sits on top of the grinder. From there, the material enters a horizontal screw conveyor; the screw conveyor may be hand-cranked or powered by an electric motor. The screw squashes and mixes the food. At the end of the screw, the food is passed through a fixed plate, where it exits the machine. The fineness of the minced food depends on the size of the holes in the plate.

By changing the hole plate it is also possible to produce breadcrumbs or fill sausage casing. After the drop from the retainer, it is possible to change the hole plate. By removing the fixing screw the grinder can be disassembled completely for cleaning. Besides the domestic manually or motor operated grinders, there are also grinders for butchery (table- or shop-grinders for example) and for the food industry. Some large machines are able to produce several tons per hour.

History
The first meat grinder was invented in the nineteenth century by Karl Drais. The earliest form of the meat grinder was hand-cranked and forced meat into a metal plate that had several small holes, resulting in long, thin strands of meat.

Manufacturers developed powered machines as electricity became more accessible, and modern electric meat grinders can process several pounds of meat easily and uniformly. Some models have different attachments to add functionality, such as sausage-making, kibbe, and juicing, which have greatly broadened the way meat grinders are used.

Mixer unit
A basic optional feature for larger grinders is the mixer unit. With this unit different kinds of meat (for example beef or pork) can be mixed with each other homogeneously and/or the meat can be mixed with additives, like salt or spices, before grinding it. Without such a mixer unit, the additives must be mixed into the meat after grinding it, which adversely affects the taste and appearance of most products. Salt is used especially to reduce the concentration of bacteria which preserves it for a longer time and gives a salty taste.

Commercial vs. home use
Commercial meat grinders are used to process thousands of pounds of meat per hour. Frozen meat grinders can process frozen blocks of meat, down to –25 °C. The frozen blocks can range from 90×50×15 cm to 90×50×20 cm, and the force applied from 80000 N to 120000 N.

There are 2 different drive forms used in industrial meat grinders, a single-rev drive, which is ideal to grind frozen meat blocks using a single auger, and a two-rev drive, which pushes the product through a cutting knife using an auger and then through a perforated plate.

The frozen meat gets pushed by the auger into the star-shaped cutting blade. Once it has been cut, it gets pushed through a second cutting surface, the plate. The plate will further reduce the size of the product and will remove/break up any fat deposits. An example of a very common industrial meat grinder would be the Hobart 48/22 Meat Grinder.
