Disappearance of Ambrose Small

Ambrose Joseph Small (January 11, 1866 – disappeared December 2, 1919) was a Canadian theatre magnate who owned several Ontario-based theatres including the Grand Opera House in Toronto, the Grand Opera House in Kingston, the Grand Theatre in London, and the Grand Theatre in Sudbury. The last known sighting of Small occurred the evening of December 2, 1919. He had been known to travel without notice, so his disappearance was not reported until early 1920. His body was never recovered.

Small's disappearance became a national news sensation. Various theories explaining Small's disappearance were publicly promoted, and the famed mystery writer Sir Arthur Conan Doyle was consulted, although he elected not to pursue the case.

Early life
Peter Ambrose Joseph Small was born on January 11, 1866, in Newmarket, Ontario, to Daniel Small, an innkeeper, and Helen (Ellen) Brazell, each twenty years old. He was baptized Roman Catholic on January 21, 1866. The Small's likely were linked to the Brazill House (Hotel), which was established by Mary Brazell in Bond Head, Ontario.

The 1871 Canadian census places his address in Albion, Cardwell, Ontario, age 6. The 1881 Canadian census places his address in St. Andrew's Ward, Toronto, at age 15. The 1891 Canadian census places his address in St. Thomas's Ward, Toronto, age 25.

Small married Theresa Kormann on November 6, 1902, in Toronto.

Disappearance
On December 1, 1919, Ambrose Small sold all his theatre holdings at a profit of CA$1.7 million. The following day he met with lawyer F. W. M. Flock in Small's office at the Grand Opera House. Flock left at 5:30 p.m. and was the last person to see Small.

That night, Small disappeared from his office. No one who testified for the police claimed to have seen him leave his office or in the Adelaide and Yonge Street area outside the building. A newsstand operator, Ralph Savein, claimed to have seen Small and had an altercation with him regarding the late shipment of that day's newspapers. At the time, however, this claim was discounted by the police, who considered it to be an attempt by Savein to gain fame from the case.

Small had no motive to disappear: the millionaire did not take money with him, nor was there any ransom note, let alone evidence of kidnapping. At 53, Small owned theatres in seven Ontario cities and was the controller of 62 other buildings, a self-made millionaire at the height of his career. Because Ambrose Small was known to disappear occasionally to womanize and carouse, his absence was not reported nor was it noted for several weeks. In January 1920, Small's attorney, F. W. M. Flock, along with Theresa Small, now alarmed by Small's lengthy absence, notified the local police. Theresa Small offered a $50,000 reward for information about her husband's disappearance and whereabouts if he was found alive, and $15,000 if dead. The reward went unclaimed.

Original leads
The police launched an extensive investigation. Small was officially declared dead in 1923. The case remained unsolved until being closed in 1960.

The week of his disappearance, Small's Opera House was playing Revelations of a Wife, a play that attracted full houses. Police analyzed the plot and its themes but found no leads. Small had not used this play to provide cryptic hints.

His wife Theresa suggested that Small had fallen into the hands of a "designing woman" but police found no candidates.

Along with his office, "Amby", as he was known locally, had a "private, secret room" with its own entrance. The room is said to have had a dual purpose: first and foremost, it was for the settling of gambling debts, and secondly, it was for Ambrose Small's many private liaisons with actresses and chorus girls, employees at his Ontario theatres. The room was scoured for leads but with no success.

Ambrose Small was not the only notable disappearance in December 1919. His former secretary, John (Jack) Doughty, had not been seen since December 2, 1919. The last sighting of Doughty in Canada was at a bank where he was observed cashing in $100,000 in bonds. He was eventually located in the United States and extradited back to Canada to stand trial. He was convicted only of the theft of the bonds. No evidence was ever found he was responsible or had any knowledge of the disappearance of his boss, Ambrose Small.

The 1921 Des Moines mystery man
Reported in several newspapers in 1921, a man was purportedly discovered in Iowa bearing resemblance to the missing man. Private detective John J. Brothy stated that the man, who he claimed was Small, was a "half-crazed cripple." He stated that he had been dropped off in Des Moines, Iowa, by an unidentified motorist who claimed he'd accidentally struck Small with his car, badly wounding him and that he hoped he'd receive the best medical care available.

Brothy claimed that the man had a gunshot wound in his neck, a serious concussion and both his legs had been severed from the knee down. He further stated that the man didn't speak for three weeks before finally breaking his silence, stating, "I am John Doughty. I came here from Omaha. That is all I remember." At this time however John "Jack" Doughty was incarcerated in Canada and had been for several months, meaning the crippled man could not have been him.

Brothy further claimed that he showed a photo of Ambrose Small to the man to which he responded by pointing at the photo and stating, quote "Yes, that is me." Brothy stated the man's facial characteristics were identical to the missing magnate's, however the mystery man weighed a significant amount more than Small had at his disappearance, having weighed only around 100 pounds.

Further reports state that the man was taken into custody by the P.I.(s), however the Des Moines police were quoted as being unaware of any of these actions and had not been contacted by the investigator(s).

It can be assumed that this lead turned out to be a dead end, as the case continued on long after this event.

1936 Ontario Provincial Police re-investigation
In 1936 the case was re-investigated by the Ontario Provincial Police at the behest of the Attorney General. O.P.P. inspector Edward L. Hammond consulted with the original investigators from the Toronto police, obtained typed copies of their report and various other source documents, and re-interviewed some witnesses.

Hammond's conclusion, that Small was murdered in a plot of which his wife was the "prime mover," is in marked contrast to the Ontario government's public position that Mrs. Small (and hence also her large monetary bequest to the Catholic church) was beyond reproach. Hammond also strongly implies that the original chief investigator, Austin Mitchell of the Toronto Police, ignored or repressed evidence which would lead to Mrs. Small as a suspect.

The Reuter confession letter
Theresa Small died October 14, 1935, bequeathing the majority of her holdings to the Roman Catholic Church, valued at over 500,000 pounds. In June 1936, her remaining possessions were to be auctioned off. Ambrose Small's sister, Florence Small, presented a letter of confession from someone known only as "Reuter," who claimed to have been the murderer.

"Poor Ambrose was killed on December 2, 1919, and I know that part of his body, the trunk, was buried in the Rosedale ravine dump and other parts of the body were burned in the Grand Opera House furnace. You will be surprised, my dear Florence and Gertrude, to learn that I am more responsible for your brother's death. God forgive me. — Reuter."

The sale, however, continued, and the letter was published in several news publications worldwide, including the New York Daily News and the Portsmouth [UK] Evening News.

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
Toronto reporters contacted Sir Arthur Conan Doyle about the case when the author was on a New York visit. Doyle politely ignored the case, but it produced the headline "Sherlock Holmes takes Small case under wing".

Charles Fort
American writer and researcher into anomalous phenomena Charles Fort wrote about the unexplained disappearances of Ambrose Small and Ambrose Bierce, and asked "Was somebody collecting Ambroses?"

In popular culture
Small appears as a major character in the Michael Ondaatje novel In the Skin of a Lion. The events concerning him in the novel after his disappearance are fictitious.

Small appears as a real-life disappearance case in The Convict Lover by Canadian author Merilyn Simonds.

In 2019 a book by Toronto Star feature writer Katie Daubs, marking the 100th anniversary of Small's disappearance, was widely anticipated.

In 2019, the Grand Theatre in London, Ontario commissioned a play about the disappearance from Trina Davies. Grand Ghosts, a theatrical, vaudeville-influenced play, made its debut in October 2022.

Talk:Judas O

Title
Maybe this should be Judas Ø, seeing as that's what it says on the disc itself.--[[User:HamYoyo|HamYoyo (Talk)]] 16:20, Jun 3, 2004 (UTC)
 * Well, the CD case says Judas O. --Dbenbenn 22:49, 18 Dec 2004 (UTC)
 * I agree, the way I see it, people title it Judas Ø because it looks neat to have an unusual character in the title of an album. It is called Judas O on both the back of the CD case and in the booklet. It seems reason enough to use an O instead of an Ø. Perhaps the title of this article can be "Judas O", and have a note in the introduction paragraph like "(also known as Judas Ø)"124.177.104.225 (talk) 14:12, 29 May 2009 (UTC)

Pages
I don't understand why Rotten Apples and Judas 0 have two separate pages. It would be like separate pages for Dawn to Dusk and Twilight to Starlight. --Dbenbenn 22:49, 18 Dec 2004 (UTC)

 * Judas 0 was a limited edition release. It's not a given that every copy of Rotten Apples also contains Judas 0, as is the case with MCIS. Pumpkingrrl 07:53, 2 April 2006 (UTC)

 * Most limited edition bonus discs are put on the same page as what they were released with, but in this case, it seems like Judas 0 had enough of a life on its own. I wouldn't be against the combination, but I like the current separation. Folkor 16:24, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

 * Example: Still (Nine Inch Nails album) -- Jon Dowland 13:32, 19 July 2007 (UTC)

 * This is true. Most limited edition bonus discs usually have either not many tracks on them, or are live recordings; alternate cuts; etc...
 * I consider this disc substantial enough to be it's own album. 125.238.16.70 00:31, 28 October 2007 (UTC)

Judas 0, Judas O, Judas Ø...?

 * The following discussion is an archived discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: page moved. Vegaswikian (talk) 22:03, 11 February 2010 (UTC)

Judas Ø → Judas O —
 * Judas O appears in typed form on the back of the CD case and in the CD insert booklet. Judas Ø only appears on the CD itself, in handwriting. Two (typed) uses to one (handwritten). Pasta of Muppets (talk) 00:41, 2 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Does anyone have a definitive answer as to which variation is the correct one? Zero, O without Stroke, O with Stroke? -- Christopher C. Parker t c 19:22, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Support Names are not generally stylized but I think the name is Judas 0.--Labattblueboy (talk) 14:42, 2 February 2010 (UTC)
 * It should be reiterated that the typed character in question is definitely the letter O ("oh") and not the digit 0 ("Zero"). It is almost perfectly rounded, far too round to be a narrower "zero" digit. Pasta of Muppets (talk) 06:07, 4 February 2010 (UTC)

 * Support per MOS:TM 70.29.210.242 (talk) 05:32, 3 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Support Judas O. That spelling is used by Allmusic, as well as the article's only source. Jafeluv (talk) 09:41, 3 February 2010 (UTC)
 * The above discussion is preserved as an archive of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on this talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

Talk:Legal code (municipal)

What's the difference ( remeber Aristotle ? Herodotus?) between law and code ( particularly municiple ), etc ? Quasi judicial and quaSI criminal? These are dark areas of law and should be explained. ` Wblakesxwblakesx

Text removed (in italics):

includes measures of formal distrust and other ways

Distrust is an article written by banned user EntmootsOfTrolls and recreated by his suspected reincarnation, JRR Trollkien. Because it is doubtful whether that article should exist, given our policy for handling such text, I object to having links added to it, especially when that same user is adding the links. If another user wants to vouch for it, I can live with that. Kim Bruning restored a link on checks and balances (there was no text besides the link). Since he restored it there, but not here, I read that as a conscious choice about where the link belongs, so I do not believe JRR Trollkien is justified in restoring it here. Furthermore, here it involves additional text, which I think disrupts the flow and the thought communicated by the sentence it is in. Checks and balances is already linked in the sentence; distrust is now linked as part of that article; the distrust article, as written, relates more directly to that topic than to legal codes generally; in this context, it seems out of place. If another person wants to restore the link, they are welcome to try addressing my concerns. --Michael Snow 16:21, 3 Jun 2004 (UTC)

Inaccurate
This article, to me, seems quite messy and inaccurate. Why should codes of laws be restricted to private law, for once? David.Monniaux 09:16, 14 Mar 2005 (UTC)

What a mess
It looks like as if people working on this article have really jumbled up the definitions of law and code. Law is a system of rules enforced by the state that governs the relationship of people to each other and to the state; a code is a more formal manifestation of those rules. No sensible American attorney would argue that judge-made law (with all its chaos and incoherence) amounts to a legal code (the article currently implies this). It needs to be fixed, but I don't have the time right now. --Coolcaesar 18:13, 6 August 2006 (UTC)

Article move
This article seems to be about municipal regulations (building codes, fire codes etc) and not about the concept of "legal code" in general, as referenced at codification and other articles. For example, it talks about "codes being administered by municipalities", which is patently untrue as regard civil and criminal codes, arguably the most important examples of code law. I don't know if this is the North American understanding of "code law" and thus a result of systematic bias, or it is simply due to contributors confusing between different meanings of "code". I have therefore moved it to its new title and redirected legal code to Code (law), which is intended to be an article about code law in general, i.e. codifications, such as civil codes in civil law countries, or the criminal/peanl codes of both civil and common law jurisdictions. --PalaceGuard008 (Talk) 03:16, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

 * Good move. Well done. The words are the same but the meanings differ and what you did cleared it up, I believe. --Achim (talk) 03:28, 17 April 2008 (UTC)

Category name
I propose that the category on this template should be named Category:Uncategorized stubs and not simply Category:Stubs. --Just my 2 cents -- Hemanshu (talk) 04:44, 19 February 2009 (UTC)
 * It's been proposed before and rejected - but if you want to, the place to do that would be at WikiProject Stub sorting/Proposals rather than here. Grutness...wha?  23:01, 19 February 2009 (UTC)

Proposal
I have a proposal to improve this stub perhaps it should be put in a box and have the Wikipedia logo next to it, just to raise awareness that it is the official Wikipedia stub. Don't get me wrong it is a fantastic design you must have worked hard and I don't want you to take my ideas the wrong way, they are merely suggestions. Anyway, tell me what you think. Thanks. L07ChLeo3 (talk) 22:00, 16 March 2009 (UTC)
 * An understandable suggestion, but if you look through the archives of this page, you'll see that there have been similar proposals several times in the past and they've all been rejected. Stub messages are supposed to remain as discreet as possible, so as not to disrupt articles - putting them in a box defeats that purpose. As for it being "the official Wikipedia stub", there are several thousand official Wikipedia stub templates - this is simply the generic one (one which, theoretically at least, shouldn't really be used; stubs should all be given more specific stub types). So no offence intended - as I said, it's an understandable suggestion - but I doubt it would find too much favour. Grutness...wha?  22:23, 16 March 2009 (UTC)

Okay sorry my mistake I was hasty and rushed into things, you're right where it says that fancy stubs disrupt articles, thanks for reviewing my suggestions. L07ChLeo3 (talk) 22:27, 16 March 2009 (UTC)

Ambox
Instead of making it plain text, why don't we make it an ambox template, like Template:Cleanup? I am suggesting this because it would make it more noticeable. 68.56.178.51 (talk) 19:57, 8 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Check the archives of this page and Wikipedia talk: WikiProject Stub sorting for the numerous times this has been suggested before. Grutness...wha?  01:29, 9 April 2009 (UTC)

Doc subpage
Just noticed that this has been reverted before. However I still think it would be beneficial. It is common practice to have the interwikis in a subpage so that they can be edited without having to raise edit requests. — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 10:47, 1 June 2009 (UTC)
 * I've nominated this for deletion at WP:SFD - as much as a procedural thing as for my personal views that it will create a lot of problems. As has been explained many times in the past, it is deliberate that stub pages have no /doc file. However, a formal SFD for this may be the opportunity to express opinions one way or the other. Grutness...wha?  00:26, 2 June 2009 (UTC)

Template:Stub in Category:Stubs?
Every other stub template lies in the category in which it populates. Therefore it seems reasonable and consistent that this template should be in Category:Stubs ... — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 06:36, 25 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Check the archives of this page - it used to be listed in, but was removed after repeated complaints and suggestions that it be removed. Grutness...wha?  01:12, 26 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Hm. That's odd - I can't find it. I know it was discussed (I was one of those who thought it was a bad idea and that the template should be listed in the category, but most were definitely in favour of the template not being listed. Over time I've come to agree with them - this one stub template is far better not shown). Discussion was around late 2005, IIRC - may have been discussed at one of WP:WSS's talk pages rather than here. Grutness...wha?  01:27, 26 July 2009 (UTC)
 * I suppose it's reasonable that this template is special case. Category:Stubs is more like a cleanup category so I can see where they are coming from. — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 11:36, 26 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Hmm, could this section be put under Examples of Russell's Paradox? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jimw338 (talk • contribs) 02:57, 27 September 2012 (UTC)

 * Today the template Template:Stub is suddenly appearing in the category Category:Stubs. The template doesn't appear to have been edited since Sept 2011, so something else has changed. Any ideas what's changed and how we can change it back?
 * I'm asking this both at Template talk:Stub and at Category talk:Stubs. Pam  D  22:57, 27 February 2013 (UTC)

New design
I think I have come up with a more "in your face" attention grabbing design. I think this would make it more noticeable and no longer hidden inside the article's text. Also, it's flashy and adds color and flair. Moldy Orange  22:23, 19 August 2009 (UTC)

 * I think you'll need to get some discussion going for this one... — RockMFR 00:43, 20 August 2009 (UTC)

I think, rather, that you need to check the archives of this page for the reasons why similar suggestions have been rejected on numerous occasions in the past. The aim of a stub template is to be as discreet as possible, which is why it sits at the bottom of the page with no box. We deliberately try to make sure that it is not "in your face". Grutness...wha?  01:31, 20 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Aww, okay. Thanks anyway! Moldy Orange  15:02, 20 August 2009 (UTC)

Proposal that stub should be added with small "s"
If Stub is added, then a stub-sorter changing it to England-footy-bio-stub etc has to delete the "S" and retype "s". If stub is added, it saves the stub-sorter a couple of keystrokes - potentially many times a day.

I propose that the wording in "Usage" be modified to read:

 * Typing stub produces the message shown at the top, and adds the article to the following category:

 * Category:stubs (Population: 1)

 * Note that stub should be used rather than Stub, because it saves work for an editor amending the stub to a specific stub template such as painting-stub.

(ie change the case of the template in 1st line, and add explanation in last sentence).

Any thoughts? Pam D  19:48, 17 March 2013 (UTC)

 * Oppose Pointy request after the nominator filed a bad faith ANI.  Lugnuts  Dick Laurent is dead 19:49, 17 March 2013 (UTC)

 * Comment: pointy oppose making personal attack on proposer and not addressing the issue at hand. Pam  D  15:09, 20 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Pointy response! If you knew the policy/guidance regarding this very template in your stub-sorting duties, you wouldn't have needed to ask the question in the first place.  Lugnuts  Dick Laurent is dead 15:51, 20 March 2013 (UTC)

 * I don't know how many articles I've stub sorted but capitalisation has never really caused a big problem. You could say the same going from Footy-bio-stub to England-footy-bio-stub. Yes, using lower case where possibly would save a couple of keystrokes down the line, but I'd rather not create rules for the purpose of having rules. Severo (talk) 20:13, 17 March 2013 (UTC)

 * Comment: Yes, if you don't sort many stubs you won't have found it a problem. All instances of {[tl|Stub}} or {[tl|stub}} are edited to more specific stub templates; only a very small minority of specific stub tags need to be further edited (and Footy-bio-stub would only be assigned in a rare case where the article didn't indicate the person's country or even continent). Who said anything about "Rules for the purpose of having rules"? This is a proposed improvement whereby editors' time can be saved.  Pam  D  15:09, 20 March 2013 (UTC)

 * StRoNgLy oPpOsE. The top of the page you are reading says "Template talk:Stub", not "Template talk:stub". The solution is not to try to force others to accommodate your workflow, but rather to ask someone to create a tool that automates the process for you. --Guy Macon (talk) 20:28, 17 March 2013 (UTC)

 * Comment: I can't imagine what sort of automation could replace the one-by-one processing involved in stub-sorting: rather than ask someone to create a complex beast like that, why not ask editors to save the key-stroke of using "S", just type plain "s", and make life easier for other editors. Wins all round. Pam  D  15:09, 20 March 2013 (UTC)

 * Oppose per WP:CREEP. Stub and stub are the exact same template. -Nathan Johnson (talk) 20:29, 17 March 2013 (UTC)

 * Comment: They're the same template, but an editor can save another editor a little work by adding stub. Why do you object to this, I wonder? Pam  D  15:09, 20 March 2013 (UTC)
 * If you could provide evidence of the raft of editors who are having hours and hours of their lives wasted by the difference between S/s, then maybe your proposal would have some merit. Do you have this evidence?  Lugnuts  Dick Laurent is dead 15:53, 20 March 2013 (UTC)

 * Comment: How depressing: an instant flurry of objections to what seemed to me to be a sensible proposal. I considered leaving the project in response to such unhelpful and uncollegial reactions, but then found more agreeable interactions elsewhere which cheered me a little. Pam  D  15:09, 20 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Nobody is being uncollegial or disagreeable, and your proposal is not a sensible one. You are casting aspersions on other editors for daring to disagree with you. Please stop doing that. --Guy Macon (talk) 16:48, 20 March 2013 (UTC)

 * Suggestion: I admit I find initial capitalisation annoying sometimes, although as mentioned above it happens with many sub-stub types, not just this one. As far as I am aware, most additions of the plain stub template are done by automated or semi-automated tools - I think the biggest contributor is new page curation? I think making this a 'rule' would just be introducing an extra rule for the sake of it for very little gain, but we could get far more benefit for little cost by asking that those tools use a small s. --Qetuth (talk) 00:29, 21 March 2013 (UTC)

 * ✅ with PamD. There are many other cases of maintenance templates that use lowercase initial, as for instance the large family of db templates (Note that it's not Db!). C'mon, asking people in the documentation to type stub instead of Stub won't hurt anyone. —capmo (talk) 02:59, 28 April 2013 (UTC)

Hi could we just create a doc for stub instead of having 3 different documentation please could we put information into doc please 86.159.27.221 (talk) 15:28, 23 March 2013 (UTC)

Proposal

 * This gets proposed now and then - the issue is that there are too many for this to be workable or useful. There are several hundred thousand stub articles. --Qetuth (talk) 09:25, 24 March 2013 (UTC)

 * what I mean is implant the category into the stub template just like this stub template 109.144.214.75 (talk) 14:28, 24 March 2013 (UTC)
 * No. is supposed to be empty, or nearly so; if an article appears in that category, it is an indication that its  must be replaced with something more specific. -- Red rose64 (talk) 16:11, 24 March 2013 (UTC)
 * The purpose of stub is to allow stubs to be marked as such by users (or automated/semi-automated tools) who have no idea what stub templates they should use; is a place for these articles to land, so that stub sorters can start to deal with them. I did nominate to have the category renamed to, but it clearly wasn't going to pass.  עוד מישהו Od Mishehu 13:56, 14 April 2013 (UTC)

That is where proposed changes to that template should be discussed. -- Red rose64 (talk) 20:39, 25 October 2015 (UTC)

Add Stub Icon?
I think that the official "stub icon" as used in assessment should be included as a prefix to the generic stub template. It is unobtrusive, not overly eye-catching, but is recognizable to editors looking to see if the article is a stub or not. It is generic enough, and draws attention to the incompleteness of the article without being too dramatic about it. It also helps to break up the generic stub tag from the article so it doesn't get lost in a jumble. Here is a mockup as to what it would look like:

''This article is a stub. You can help Wikipedia by expanding it.''

I'm proposing this because after a look through the Archives the main pushback against adding an icon was it drawing too much attention to the fact that the article is a stub, which I believe this icon does not do, and I think that all stub footers should have some image relating to their topic to make them slightly more visually appealing to the reader.

Thanks for any feedback, Fritzmann2002 21:04, 24 June 2018 (UTC)
 * There's hardly any point to making it more visible. As I noted in the thread immediately above, the template should be rarely used - those few articles that may currently bear a  will soon have it replaced by a more specific stub template because of stub sorting. So the ideal number of articles where this icon might be recognizable to editors looking to see if the article is a stub or not, or where it might draw attention to the incompleteness of the article, is zero. -- Red rose64 🌹 (talk) 09:52, 25 June 2018 (UTC)

Icon
I suggest adding an explanatory icon to the templtae. It also makes the template visually more distinct from the rest of the article. Many subcategories of template:stub already have an icon, as far as I can recall. --Handroid7 (talk) 14:32, 16 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Please see four out of the last five sections above, "Not adding stubs to category?" excepted. There are a number of older discussions too. -- Red rose64 🌹 (talk) 18:27, 16 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Ah, so I am not the first one to notice this. Good to know. But maybe it is time to do something about it. --Handroid7 (talk) 13:29, 17 August 2019 (UTC)
 * There's no point adding an icon. This template usually disappears within a few hours. Pam  D  15:10, 17 August 2019 (UTC)

Topic/Genre Parameter
I am just thinking that instead of making individual stubs, we could just have a spot for the topic/genre of the article. It would make it easier for everybody. SEGACD32XMODEL1 (talk) 19:32, 30 April 2024 (UTC)

Charles Jenkins Sr.

Charles Lamont "Charlie" Jenkins (born January 7, 1934) is a former American athlete, winner of two gold medals at the 1956 Summer Olympics.

Coached by Jumbo Elliott, Jenkins won in the 1955 National AAU title in 440 yd (402 m) but at the 1956 Olympics all eyes were on Jenkins' U.S. teammate, Lou Jones, who held the world record. Jones had won the U.S. Trials while Jenkins had placed a distant third. At Melbourne, Jenkins barely made it to the 400 m Olympic final, finishing third in both his first and second-round heats. In the final, however, a strong finish earned him the gold medal. A few days later he won a second gold medal when the U.S. took the 4 x 400 m relay.

Jenkins also competed indoors, winning the AAU 600 yd (549 m) title in 1955, 1957 and 1958. In 1956, he set a world indoor best for 500 yd (457 m). When Elliott died in 1981, Jenkins succeeded him as Villanova coach. One of his charges was his son, Chip, who placed third at the 1986 NCAA indoor championships. Like his father, Chip also became an Olympic gold medalist, running as a reserve on the U.S. 4×400 m relay team at the 1992 Summer Olympics making it the first time in history that a father and a son won gold medals in the same event.

In December 1956 Jenkins married Phyllis Randolph. In the 1970s he worked for the U.S. Office of Education.

Cutoff (physics)

In theoretical physics, cutoff (AE: cutoff, BE: cut-off) is an arbitrary maximal or minimal value of energy, momentum, or length, used in order that objects with larger or smaller values than these physical quantities are ignored in some calculation. It is usually represented within a particular energy or length scale, such as Planck units.

When used in this context, the traditional terms "infrared" and "ultraviolet" are not literal references to specific regions of the spectrum, but rather refer by analogy to portions of a calculation for low energies (infrared) and high energies (ultraviolet), respectively.

Infrared and ultraviolet cutoff
An infrared cutoff (long-distance cutoff) is the minimal value of energy – or, equivalently, the maximal wavelength (usually a very large distance) – that will be taken into account in a calculation, typically an integral.

At the opposite end of the energy scale, an ultraviolet cutoff is the maximal allowed energy or the shortest allowed distance (usually a very short length scale).

Effect on calculation
A typical use of cutoffs is to prevent singularities from appearing during calculation. If some quantities are computed as integrals over energy or another physical quantity, these cutoffs determine the limits of integration. The exact physics is reproduced when the appropriate cutoffs are sent to zero or infinity. However, these integrals are often divergent – see IR divergence and UV divergence – and a cutoff is needed. The dependence of physical quantities on the chosen cutoffs (especially the ultraviolet cutoffs) is the main focus of the theory of the renormalization group.

The Ashes (rugby league)

The Ashes series, similar to the cricket series of the same name, was a best-of-three series of test matches between Australia and Great Britain national rugby league football teams. It had been contested 39 times from 1908 until 2003 largely with hosting rights alternating between the two countries. Since 1973, Australia has won a record thirteen consecutive Ashes series.

In 2023, the series was revived as a best-of-three series of test matches between Australia and this time England national rugby league football teams, starting in 2025. Unlike the original, this would feature both a men's and women's series.

This came after two failed revivals, one in 2020 which was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and another in 2022 (set for 2024) as part of a potential Australian tour of Great Britain.

Original series
Several sports and events adopted cricket's Ashes concept and by the beginning of the 20th century it was an "accepted principle" that a series had to have at least three matches to be a true test of which side was the best.

On 27 September 1908, the first touring Australian rugby league side arrived in England, and played their first ever Test against the England side in December in London. Two further Tests were played. The Australians suggested that the series should be called "The Ashes" and the name stuck.

The format used is that three matches are played, with the winning team being decided on the basis of most matches won. If one team has already won two matches the series is already won, however the final game is usually still played. In the 1929–30 Ashes series both the teams won one game and one game was drawn; it was therefore decided to hold a further match to determine the outcome.

The British side has not always been termed Great Britain; in the past the titles "Northern Union XIII", "England" and "The Lions" have also been used. Similarly, the first two tours to Britain (1911–12 and 1921–22), included New Zealand players so were styled "Australasia", though when playing at home they always played as Australia.

Since 1964 the Harry Sunderland Medal is awarded to the best Australian player in a home Ashes series. Since Great Britain's win in Australia in 1970, the series has been very one sided with Australia having won 13 consecutive ashes, 5 of those (1979, 1982, 1984, 1986 and 2003) being 3–0 series whitewashes while the 1988 series had already been won by Australia in the first two tests before the Lions won a famous third test in Sydney 26–12 for their first test win over Australia since the second test of the 1978 Kangaroo tour, a streak of 15 wins for the Kangaroos.

The performance gap between the two teams became wider during the mid-late 1970s and Great Britain struggled to compete with Australia. The 1982 Kangaroos became the first side to go through a tour of Great Britain and France undefeated (something never achieved on a Lions tour, though they came close in 1954 losing just 2 games). This earned the team the nickname "The Invincibles". The 1986 Kangaroos repeated this feat and would be known as "The Unbeatables".

The final Ashes series was contested in 2003.

Planned revivals
In 2009 with the prospect of not contesting them until after the 2013 World Cup, Britain's Rugby Football League (RFL) challenged the Australian Rugby League (ARL) to play the round-robin stage match of the Four Nations tournament with the Ashes at stake. The one-off game would be a departure from the usual three-match series, additionally the contest would be between England, rather than Great Britain, and Australia. The ARL initially agreed to the proposal but later, facing hostility from former Ashes players and fans who thought the proposals devalued the Ashes, the two governing bodies decided not to proceed.

In 2016, newly appointed Australian team coach Mal Meninga, who as a player was selected to a record 4 Kangaroo Tours (the last two as captain) and played in a record 6 Ashes series (1982, 1984, 1986, 1990, 1992 and 1994 - playing a record 17 Ashes tests, only missing 1988 through injury), publicly advocated for a return of the Kangaroo Tours which would see The Ashes revived in 2020. The proposed 2020 series was cancelled in June 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. It was later suggested that the series may instead be played in 2022, however this never eventuated. In October 2022, Meninga stated that talks were underway for a potential Ashes tour of England in 2024.

Modern series
On 3 August 2023, The revival of The Ashes was announced by International Rugby League as part of their new 7-year international calendar and long-term strategy for growth of the international game. The revamped competition will also feature a women's test series for the first time with the first edition to take place in 2025.

Trophy
In 1928, the City Tattersalls Club in Sydney, Australia donated a trophy to be the prize, the "Ashes Cup". The Cup's inscription reads: INTERNATIONAL

RUGBY LEAGUE FOOTBALL

Australia v England

(THE ASHES)

Presented by

CITY TATTERSALLS CLUB

The Cup was first presented in 1928 to The Lions, after they defeated Australia 2–1 in the series. Following the 1933–34 series, in which England retained the Cup for the third time since first being presented with it, the Cup disappeared in the United Kingdom and was not found until October 1945. The trophy had been on display at a function in Ilkley, Yorkshire and afterwards was returned to the manager of the Griffin Hotel, Leeds - where the English Rugby League management met - but this was not made clear to the English authorities and instead in laid overlooked in a box for 12 years. During the period it was missing, Great Britain had won each series and the Cup's disappearance was not widely known. The Australian team first won the Cup in 1950.

In preparation for the Legends of League exhibition at the National Museum of Australia in 2008, marking a Centenary of Rugby League in Australia, the Ashes Cup underwent preservation work.

Among the other special features on this DVD is included a unique feature - a frequently updated, expert commentary on the DVD itself. This is where the amassed collection of wisdom can be found, and even added to, by a humble one such as yourself. This is the DVD commentary section of ((AgentSeethroo))'s DVD.

Strong Bad's Run
Do you like Strong Bad? ((PrincessofStrongBadia))

For the record, I think Strong Bad rocks muh frickin SOCKS! - Any friend of Strong Bad is a friend of mine! ((AgentSeethroo))

((AgentSeethroo/Comments|Return to Scene Selection#SceneSelection))

Flying High
Soooo, ((AgentSeethroo)) you work for the air force? Tell us about that! - ((Heir_of_Lindeen))

Weeeeeeeellll... the Air Force is pretty nifty, they treat us way better than the army and marines treat their peoples... My job is Contracting, which means I basically buy supplies and services to be used on the base I'm stationed at. Pretty cushy job actually...I gots my own desk and whatnot...

I SWORE when I was younger that I'd NEVER join any military branch, but I guess I had to grow up eventually...

OH and a little more about myself, I co-own a little Manga production company with my wife and best friend, and we're working on a hilarious little series.

If you folks have any Air Force questions (yeah right) or anything else, I'm the guy to come to!!!

((AgentSeethroo))

Do you ever get bored of your job?- ((SBZ22))

Not really, I mean my job is to buy stuff ya know? there's a process to it that can get old sometimes, but it changes all the time, and I've bought some pretty cool stuff...Some pretty EXPENSIVE stuff too ... I think my job's pretty cool...how many 21 year olds do you know that get to spend thousands of dollars on a daily basis? lol it would suck to be deployed to Iraq or something like that, but any time you get deployed, you never come back home without some kind of positive change in your life...you really appreciate your family, or your wife/girlfriend (whichever the case may be lol). it's just overall a good thing to experience.

((AgentSeethroo))

My best friend dreams of being in the Air Force. Have any advice for her? PrincessofStrongBadia

For basic training, just learn to do pushups...for the REAL Air Force, just do your job the right way and you'll win more awards than you can imagine. Trust me, I know for a FACT! lol

OH one of the MOST important things to know is always get a good supervisor...if you have a crappy one you can always talk to your first sergeant and get a different one. You'll never succeed if your supervisor hasn't.

This is fun! ((AgentSeethroo))

I was just wondering because my uncle was in the Air Force and he resigned because he thought it was boring. I'm not sure whay part of the Air Force he was in, though.- ((SBZ22))

So it seems as if you spend a lot of your time on the computer... - ((Heir_of_Lindeen))

true, true....everything I do with my job is on the computer...like...the whole shebang...so I can surf while I work. YEEHA! It kinds sucks when the communications squadron blocks websites though...they even blocked homestarrunner.com for a couple weeks...but now just the games, downloads, and store is blocked....*sigh* ((AgentSeethroo))

That must suck, but man, I've always wanted to join the Air Force (but I would DEFINATELY be workin on the computers - I love 'em) But I told my Mum and she pretty much crushed my hopes and dreams, thinks I won't pass the physical coz of my heart murmur, stuffed back and non-ulcer dispepsia!!! AAARGH! That shouldn't matter!! I'll be on the computers!!! Did you have to do a physical to get your job? I'm in great physical shape and all, (best runner in the class) but I just have a few things stuffing up. Please help. - ((M.J))

Well, what you need to do first is talk to a recruiter. I promise you they'll do EVERYTHING they can to get you in the Air Force. They'll also help you get whatever job you want. Make SURE you get a job you want, or else you could be stuck with a crappy poopoo job. If that medical stuff has no effect on your physical fitness and ability to do a 1.5 mile run, situps, or pushups, you could just not disclose certain information to your recruiter. Even if you do, they'll probably just tell you not to say anything about it when you go to get your physical. Got any more questions? I like this game! - ((AgentSeethroo|Agent "A1C" Gentry))

Don't mean to barge in here, but I just have to say that the Royal Australian Air Force and the Airforce Recruiting web pages are really cool. I was also able to find some pretty specific physical requirements here. -- ((Tom))

Woah. I was reading the RAAF recruiting page...in their basic training you get "a big comfortable bed" and "a big screen tv". Dangit. I wish I was Australian. - AgentSeethroo

Woot! I'm an Aussie all the way. Yeah, I should be able to do all that training stuff, but it's been a while since I've tried to do a sit-up! lol. - ((M.J))

Debriefing Down Under
You remind me of a kangaroo. - ((FireBird))

well...you remind me of...a...bird? that's like...on fire? so THERE! ((AgentSeethroo)) *hop hop hop*

A kangaroo?!! What the crap about Mr.Seethroo over here reminds you of a kangaroo? - ((Heir_of_Lindeen))

The last two o's in his name remind me of a kangaroo. I'm sorry for posting my thoughts Heir_of_Liddean, I guess I should have asked you first. - FireBird

Oh his name reminds of a kangaroo. I was thinking you ment like him as a person. I was thinking what did this guy do that reminded you of a kangaroo. Sorry offense was not intended. - ((Heir_of_Lindeen))'

Oh, ok. Sorry. - FireBird

{Said in Steve Irwin's voice} G'day mates! CRIKEYS! I've seen a few Kangaroos in my day, but never before have I seen such a rare species such as the "Agent Seeth Roo." Ahh! Isn't he a beauty! Well, I think I'll go wrestle another alligator! CRIKEY!! - ((M.J))

Detective Alex
I noticed you asked a question on DeeDee's userspace about putting a pic of yourself on this page. If you need space to host an image, I'm happy to do so right here on the wiki itself (it's definately better than Yahoo!). You can shoot me the image attached to an email if you'd like. --JoeyDay

You sound like Detective Alex. My friend made him up when we were talking about what people in our school would be like as adults, and he said that a kid named Alex would be a detective in some army-type division. Alex (in real life) is a really technological guy, so we said that Detective Alex would do all of his work on the computer! -((Lord Karkon))

The Sound of Russian Roulette
do do doot. do do doot. do do doot. duh nuh nuh.

$10 for the sucker who can figure out what song that came from!! sounds impossible, no? IT IS! but seriously. give 'er a try. - ((AgentSeethroo))

It sounds familar. James Bond, or Mission Impossible perhaps. - ((Heir_of_Lindeen))

Nope, sorry. Not from a soundtrack...think of recent singles...like within the last couple years. Keep trying! this is fun! ((AgentSeethroo))

Are the doot's and duh's vocal or heavy metal, or what? -((The Brothers E))

Third eye blind Semi-charmed Life? - ((Heir_of_Lindeen)) Or maybe Strong Bad's Techno song? - ((Heir_of_Lindeen))

the doots and duhs aren't vocals, they're like...geetarz. It's a bit newer than Semi-Charmed Life, but it's not 3EB. and it's not SBTechno.

hmm...maybe this'll help...it's the first track on the band's cd... uhh...it has to do with someone...gettin hit? yeah...gettin hit. seriously! you can do it! ((AgentSeethroo))

What band was it? - ((Heir_of_Lindeen))

I'm going to have to go with, "Subliminal" by TMBG. -- ((Tom))

ok...one more guess and then I'll tell you guys. Keep it up! Oh..and check out my DISASTER subpage please...((AgentSeethroo))

Piecheck Trophy
I've got an air force question. What's it like in the air force? ((dillon))

Yo dillon. it really depends on what job you have. but generally, it's great. pretty laid back, people joke around all the time...It's really like an everyday job, except you wear cool camo stuff and you never have to worry about being laid off.

OH and your promotions are like...Definite. like you get promoted every so often no matter what, and you get pay raises every year. like...at least a hundred more dollars a month.

geeze...I'm startin to sound like my recruiter...yeah but anyway, I like the job security. and LEAVE ROCKS! I can take days off any time I want, as long as I have enough leave built up...in fact...I might take next week off...FOR FUN!!!!!

In conclusion, it is my intention to play video games for several hours.

if ya have any more questions, I don't mind answerin'. but please don't belittle what I do. ((AgentSeethroo))

Random crap, huh??

"Hypocrisy is the vaseline of social intercourse."

If you say "3.141592657" you have cited pi to nine decimal points. After that just start saying whatever numbers you want, and say them with authority. People will think you are a genius.

I need more coffee.

-!TallAndMerciless

Uh, isn't that ninth decimal place incorrect? (The seven.) Shouldn't it be a four? -- ((Tom))

The internet says: 3.1415926535897932384626433832795028841971693993751058209749445923078164062862089986280348253421170679

Blow it out of the Sky
Air Force Question: What's at Area 51? --((Buz))

Sorry dude, don't have the security clearance to even know. and if I DID know...and I told you...I'd have to kill you! ((AgentSeethroo))

If you do not even have clearance to know about it, how do you know you will have to kill us if you told? - ((Heir_of_Lindeen))

well if I was to "accidentally" stumble onto Area 51, the Security Forces in the area would have NO problem with either 1) knockin' me down on my face and immediately placing the muzzle of an M-16 assault rifle against my head OR 2) just shooting me. So therefore I gather that if whatever they have there is so important that they can kill me cause they know what's there and I don't, then who's to say I couldn't kill you if yadda yadda yadda?

and by the way, getting a Top Secret security clearance SUCKS. you even have to have perfect credit! ((AgentSeethroo))

 * Well, you wouldn't want someone in 100K of debt being blackmailed or bribed to give information. I wouldn't.  But then again, I'm betting I'll never have top secret clearance unless it's required for some job in politics. --((Buz))

So they told you it existed? - ((Heir_of_Lindeen))

Well, Area 51 DOES exist. it's in Nevada, some 40 miles north of Vegas.

But what goes on there is completely mysterious. Some say it's alien stuff, some say it's aircraft testing, but no one really knows except the people who work on that base. There are theories, of course. you can check out http://www.Area51.net to check out stuff about aliens, and then there's http://users.cihost.com/ata/aircraft.htm that shows aircraft that were developed at area 51.

on a related note, I tried getting a Top Secret clearance because my original job was going to have something to do with nuclear bombs and whatnot. But luckily, I couldn't get my clearance, and now I'm in a different job called Contracting. Much better. Much safer. and my wifey feels much better about it.

AgentSeethroo

I have some insider information! Area 51 is actually A.R.E.A. 51. Area, Rea, Ea, Aerodynamic 51! But if I told you that, I'd have to crap you. Wait... oops. --((Lord Karkon))

um. you misspelled military. And I know exactly what I got myself into. What's your frickin' point, kid? Who's trying to get rid of my job? Who's going to replace the military? Wal-Mart associates??

The War.
What is your opinion on the war in Iraq? Before the Abu Ghraib scandals, my motto on it was "Support our troops, don't support the people who sent them over there", which meant that I respected the military, but I didn't like the President and his cronies.

I don't think we should be led into war by big-business idiots who avoided actually fighting and are only going in to get the oil, but the people who are in the military, I appreciate them as they don't act like cowards when they're asked to go to fight but they send others to fight for the wrong reasons.

In conclusion, I salute you ((AgentSeethroo)), but I will not salute the Republicans in the White House who are lying, cheating, and stealing simply to get oil from Iraq.

Really hoping that Kerry gets elected- ((William S.))

Wow. Excellent comment and question, ((william s.|Will)). Here's what I think: The war could have been handled in a different manner, yes. I also believe that the war was inevitable. Saddam had to be taken care of one way or another, and since we can't legally snipe him, this will have to suffice. I stand by the decisions of my superiors, all the way up to the Commander in Chief. Possibly because I have NO choice, but that makes no difference.

The Abu Ghraib situation hurts me at a really deep level. Before, I could walk down the street in my uniform and I would get looks of respect from whoever I came across, adult and child alike. But I fear that these ignorant lower enlisted soldiers who carried out the abuse at the prison may have soiled our image. Many of the people we protect constantly spit in our faces, call us baby killers, protest our very jobs, and hate us. This scandal does NOT help. The excuses those soldiers are giving the press/investigators/whoever else are all GARBAGE. Unlawful orders can be refused. With no legal/punitive repercussions. The Law of Armed Conflict states that.

This war was never about oil. Desert Storm, sadly, was. This is about the freedom of a country that has been oppressed by a single man for years upon years. The same man threatens our own safety as well.

Did we find those "weapons"? Doesn't look like it. Did Bush have "permission" from the U.N. to start the war? No. Do I want to be deployed? No. Not at all. Am I willing to fight for the freedom of each and every American on this Wiki? Absolutely. Give me an M-16, throw me in the desert. I'll do whatever I can.

I appreciate your support. It really means a lot to me.

After reading all this, it seems kind of incoherent...oh well. Any other questions?

Infrared divergence

In physics, an infrared divergence (also IR divergence or infrared catastrophe) is a situation in which an integral, for example a Feynman diagram, diverges because of contributions of objects with very small energy approaching zero, or equivalently, because of physical phenomena at very long distances.

Overview
The infrared divergence only appears in theories with massless particles (such as photons). They represent a legitimate effect that a complete theory often implies. In fact, in the case of photons, the energy is given by $$E=h\nu$$, where $$\nu$$ is the frequency associated to the particle and as it goes to zero, like in the case of soft photons, there will be an infinite number of particles in order to have a finite amount of energy. One way to deal with it is to impose an infrared cutoff and take the limit as the cutoff approaches zero and/or refine the question. Another way is to assign the massless particle a fictitious mass, and then take the limit as the fictitious mass vanishes.

The divergence is usually in terms of particle number and not empirically troubling, in that all measurable quantities remain finite. (Unlike in the case of the UV catastrophe where the energies involved diverge.)

Bremsstrahlung example
When an electric charge is accelerated (or decelerated) it emits Bremsstrahlung radiation. Semiclassical electromagnetic theory, or the full quantum electrodynamic analysis, shows that an infinite number of soft photons are created. But only a finite number are detectable, the remainder, due to their low energy, falling below any finite energy detection threshold, which must necessarily exist. However even though most of the photons are not detectable they can't be ignored in the theory; quantum electrodynamic calculations show that the transition amplitude between any states with a finite number of photons vanishes. Finite transition amplitudes are obtained only by summing over states with an infinite number of soft photons.

The zero-energy photons become important in analyzing the Bremsstrahlung radiation in the coaccelerated frame in which the charge experiences a thermal bath due to the Unruh effect. In this case, the static charge will only interact with these zero-energy (Rindler) photons in a sense similar to virtual photons in the coulomb interaction.

It was, actually, just a very short notice of inclusion for Keith Richards, removal of which was undue. Only at this point I have something to say: of course being pictured with a bottle in your hand or on your mouth doesn't necessarily makes one "notable drinker", his/her celebrity status makes one notable drinker. As for the ref, being pic'ed could really mean, although unlikely, that Keith, in this case, just happened to like holding a bottle in his hand, and a liquid in his mouth, throat and stomach, however article says explicitly "his favorite spirit" which, as a source, is due enough and clear enough, unless someone thinks we need stronger source, like, i don't know, a scholarly research, published journal paper? Twitter is just fun illustration, one article with explicit claim and lot of funn photos is quite enough - I believe we really do not need to overkill with refs on this one.-- ౪ Santa ౪ 99°  20:13, 17 July 2022 (UTC)

But in case someone thinks some sort of at least journo research on the case, you can use this one whisky-s-place-in-rock-n-roll-history, with some other famous names included. ౪ Santa ౪ 99°  20:23, 17 July 2022 (UTC)
 * I don't understand what you are proposing to do to the article.לילך5 (talk) 20:27, 17 July 2022 (UTC)
 * He's trying to justify his edit warring. I would be willing to discuss adding the Keith Richards photo, but there's no point since Santasa99 has already decided we're going to include it. GA-RT-22 (talk) 23:02, 17 July 2022 (UTC)
 * What photo; and yes consensus is a must and editor should seek it, unless one is about to add something really not controversial at all, well refed, all the while added bit is deemed, using common sense, informative and an improvement. ౪ Santa ౪  99°  23:25, 17 July 2022 (UTC)

HX convoys

HX convoys were transatlantic convoys in the North Atlantic during the First World War and in the Battle of the Atlantic in the Second World War. HX convoys sailed eastwards from Halifax, Nova Scotia in Canada, to Liverpool and other ports in Britain. They were joined the BHX convoys from Bermuda en route. After the United States entered the war, HX convoys began at New York.

The HX series consisted of 377 convoys, with 17,744 ships. Thirty-eight convoys were attacked (about 10 per cent), with the loss of 110 ships in convoy; sixty stragglers were sunk and 36 lost while detached or after dispersal, with losses from marine accident and other causes, for a total loss of 206 ships or about 1 per cent of the total.

Background
An HX series had run in the Atlantic Campaign of the First World War in 1917 and 1918. HX convoys were revived in 1939 at the beginning of the Battle of the Atlantic and were run until the end, the longest continuous series of the war. HX 1 sailed on 16 September 1939 with 18 merchant ships, escorted by the Royal Canadian Navy destroyers HMCS St. Laurent (H83) and HMCS Saguenay (D79) to a North Atlantic rendezvous with Royal Navy heavy cruisers HMS Berwick (65) and HMS York (90). HX 358 sailed on 23 May 1945 and arrived at Liverpool on 6 June 1945. HX convoys were initially considered fast and made up of ships that could make 9 –, the voyage from New York to Liverpool taking an average of 15.2 days. A parallel series of slow convoys (SC), was run for ships making 7.7 –, which took about 15.4 days from Sydney, Nova Scotia.

Ships making more than 13 kn sailed independently; CU (Caribbean to United Kingdom) series were organised in 1943, most being US war-built tankers of 15 kn+, which later included troop transports and fast merchant ships. Outbound convoys were usually slower than return convoys and summer voyages usually faster than those in winter. Delays for diversions and bad weather could lead to escort vessels at the ocean rendezvous running low on fuel and having to return. A convoy that went way off course or encountered unusually stormy or foggy weather would be lucky to make rendezvous with its escorts. The largest convoy of the Second World War was Convoy HX 300 which sailed from New York to Britain on 25 July 1944, with 166 merchant ships, arriving at Liverpool without incident, on 3 August 1944.

Convoy battles

 * Convoy HX 79 Attacked by a U-boat Wolfpack in October 1940. Twelve ships were lost, which, with the attack on Convoy SC 7 on the same day, made 19 October and the night of 19/20 October 1940 the worst period for shipping losses of the Battle of the Atlantic.
 * Convoy HX 84 Attacked on 5 November 1940 by the GERMAN HEAVY CRUISER Admiral Scheer. Five ships were quickly sunk but the sacrifice of HMS Jervis Bay (F40) a armed merchant cruiser and the armed merchant ship SS Beaverford along with failing light, allowed the rest of the convoy to escape. The oil tanker SS San Demetrio was part of the convoy.
 * Convoy HX 106 On 8 February 1941 two German battlecruisers, GERMAN BATTLESHIP Scharnhorst and GERMAN BATTLESHIP Gneisenau appeared over the horizon. The presence of the escorting battleship HMS Ramillies (07) deterred an attack.
 * Convoy HX 112 Attacked in March 1941, this battle was notable for seeing the loss to the Kriegsmarine (German navy) of two of its U-boat aces, Otto Kretschmer and Joachim Schepke.
 * Convoy HX 156 was being escorted by the United States Navy in October, 1941, when GS U-552 torpedoed USS Reuben James (DD-245), the first US warship sunk in the Second World War.
 * Convoy HX 212 suffered the worst loss of an HX convoy in 1942.
 * Convoy HX 228 Was one of several convoys attacked during March 1943. Two U-boats were destroyed while sinking four merchant ships and the escort commander's destroyer.
 * Convoys HX 229/SC 122. Attacked in March 1943, this action converged with the operation around Convoy SC 122 and became the largest convoy battle of the Atlantic campaign.

Ultraviolet divergence

In physics, an ultraviolet divergence or UV divergence is a situation in which an integral, for example a Feynman diagram, diverges because of contributions of objects with unbounded energy, or, equivalently, because of physical phenomena at infinitesimal distances.

Overview
Since an infinite result is unphysical, ultraviolet divergences often require special treatment to remove unphysical effects inherent in the perturbative formalisms. In particular, UV divergences can often be removed by regularization and renormalization. Successful resolution of an ultraviolet divergence is known as ultraviolet completion. If they cannot be removed, they imply that the theory is not perturbatively well-defined at very short distances.

The name comes from the earliest example of such a divergence, the "ultraviolet catastrophe" first encountered in understanding blackbody radiation. According to classical physics at the end of the nineteenth century, the quantity of radiation in the form of light released at any specific wavelength should increase with decreasing wavelength—in particular, there should be considerably more ultraviolet light released from a blackbody radiator than infrared light. Measurements showed the opposite, with maximal energy released at intermediate wavelengths, suggesting a failure of classical mechanics. This problem eventually led to the development of quantum mechanics.

The successful resolution of the original ultraviolet catastrophe has prompted the pursuit of solutions to other problems of ultraviolet divergence. A similar problem in electromagnetism was solved by Richard Feynman by applying quantum field theory through the use of renormalization groups, leading to the successful creation of quantum electrodynamics (QED). Similar techniques led to the standard model of particle physics. Ultraviolet divergences remain a key feature in the exploration of new physical theories, like supersymmetry.

Proliferation in perturbative theory
Commenting on the fact that contemporary theories about quantum scattering of fundamental particles grew out of application of the quantization procedure to classical fields that satisfy wave equations, J.D. Bjorken and Sidney Drell pointed out the following facts about such a procedure which are still as relevant today as in 1965: "The first is that we are led to a theory with differential wave propagation. The field functions are continuous functions of continuous parameters $x$ and $t$, and the changes in the fields at a point $x$ are determined by properties of the fields infinitesimally close to the point $x$. For most wave fields (for example, sound waves and the vibrations of strings and membranes) such a description is an idealization which is valid for distances larger than the characteristic length which measures the granularity of the medium. For smaller distances these theories are modified in a profound way. The electromagnetic field is a notable exception. Indeed, until the special theory of relativity obviated the necessity of a mechanistic interpretation, physicists made great efforts to discover evidence for such a mechanical description of the radiation field. After the requirement of an “ether” which propagates light waves had been abandoned, there was considerably less difficulty in accepting this same idea when the observed wave properties of the electron suggested the introduction of a new field. Indeed there is no evidence of an ether which underlies the electron wave. However, it is a gross and profound extrapolation of present experimental knowledge to assume that a wave description successful at “large” distances (that is, atomic lengths ≈10 −8 cm) may be extended to distances an indefinite number of orders of magnitude smaller (for example, to less than nuclear lengths ≈10 −13 cm). In the relativistic theory, we have seen that the assumption that the field description is correct in arbitrarily small space-time intervals has led—in perturbation theory—to divergent expressions for the electron self-energy and the bare charge. Renormalization theory has sidestepped these divergence difficulties, which may be indicative of the failure of the perturbation expansion. However, it is widely felt that the divergences are symptomatic of a chronic disorder in the small-distance behaviour of the theory. We might then ask why local field theories, that is, theories of fields which can be described by differential laws of wave propagation, have been so extensively used and accepted. There are several reasons, including the important one that with their aid a significant region of agreement with observations has been found. But the foremost reason is brutally simple: there exists no convincing form of a theory which avoids differential field equations."

Charged black hole

A charged black hole is a black hole that possesses electric charge. Since the electromagnetic repulsion in compressing an electrically charged mass is dramatically greater than the gravitational attraction (by about 40 orders of magnitude), it is not expected that black holes with a significant electric charge will be formed in nature.

Categories
The two types of charged black holes are Reissner–Nordström black holes (without spin), and Kerr–Newman black holes (with spin).

A black hole can be completely characterized by three (and only three) quantities:
 * M – mass
 * J – angular momentum
 * Q – electric charge

Charged black holes are two of four possible types of black holes that have been found by solving Einstein's theory of gravitation, general relativity. The mathematical solutions for the shape of space and the electric and magnetic fields near a black hole are named after the persons who first worked them out. The solutions increase in complexity depending on which of the two parameters, J and Q, are zero (or not) (the mass M of a black hole could conceivably be tiny, but not zero). The four categories of solutions are given in the table below:

The solutions of Einstein's field equation for the gravitational field of an electrically charged point mass (with zero angular momentum), in empty space was obtained in 1918 by Hans Reissner and Gunnar Nordström, not long after Karl Schwarzschild found the Schwarzschild metric as a solution for a point mass without electric charge and angular momentum.

A mathematically-oriented article describes that the Reissner–Nordström metric for a charged, non-rotating black hole. A similarly technical article on the Kerr–Newman black hole gives an overview of the most general known solution for a black hole, which has both angular momentum and charge (all the other solutions are simplified special cases of the Kerr–Newman black hole).
