Category talk:Wikipedia articles incorporating text from the 1911 Encyclopædia Britannica

Does this category not appear to "set in stone" these articles? Surely the aim should be so to develop these that their origins become irrelevant? Is it envisaged that they will then be uncategorised from here? Djnjwd 23:21, 16 Aug 2004 (UTC)

 * I use it to help know which articles have had input from 1911. I own the hard copy and it's helpful to know which have allready had input. Rarely if ever are the articles from 1911 a one to one copy, in fact they mostly need lots of help with grammer and new information. Edit away as needed I dont think there is anything on Wikipedia that is set in stone much less some old EB articles. Stbalbach

What content in Caithness is from 1911 Britannica? Laurel Bush 10:56, 16 Mar 2005 (UTC).

Removing tag
Should we start removing the 1911 tag where nothing remains of the original BE article? In many cases I feel this give the article a more "dated" look than it really is. Fornadan 12:20, 18 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Problems with the 1911 articles
I've just been looking at the Porism article, and it contained a bit of gobbledygook. Fortunately I've got a copy of the 1929 edition, in which a number of articles are more or less unchanged from 1911, and was able to verify that it was Greek which the OCR process had made unintelligible. I corrected this, and also some mathematical expressions that had got screwed up. Should there be an ongoing project to look out for this sort of thing and correct it? rossb 22:53, 17 May 2005 (UTC)

Up-dating
Yes, for the sake of reference, and some introductory contents, Encyclopedia Britannica 1911 is, no doubt, a fine source. But, I found a number pages based on the same contain information which are “stale” and without any context to changes which may have happened during the last 100 years. Such a page serves very little purpose, and is perhaps a question mark on our credibility to present up-dated information. I think that all pages which are based on Encyclopedia Britannica 1911 require massive up-dates, and may require sustained efforts by scores of volunteers. --Bhadani 09:52, 7 January 2006 (UTC)

 * Couldn't agree more. Crossposting a recent comment of mine on Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Missing encyclopedic articles: I sometimes come along 1911-derived stubs in the field of African ethnography. More often than not, they contain glaring errors or just plain outdated statements. So much has changed since then in ethnography/anthropology, ethnolinguistics, and history, that the 1911 content of this area has become virtually useless. People should be warned against that. For an example, take the article Barabra before I cleaned it up. Stubs like that do more harm than good, especially because this area hasn't that many editors who can separate chaff from wheat. — mark ✎ 15:00, 10 February 2006 (UTC)

why is this a category? The right place to mention that an article uses text from the 1911 EB is at references, but may be I miss someting. Andries 19:49, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

Merge w/ Category:Wikipedia articles incorporating text from the 1911 Encyclopædia Britannica?
I don't know if this is something we should consider or how we would go about doing it, but does this category and the category Category:Wikipedia articles incorporating text from the 1911 Encyclopædia Britannica (I don't know how to create a link to this without turnng adding it as an actual categoty) smack of redundency? Valley2city 17:08, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

 * I assume you mean Category:1911 Britannica? The articles in that category don't have 1911 applied correctly (either substituted or added manually to that category) and need to be retagged. —Ruud 17:33, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

Greek Scanning Problems: Alert Me and I Will Fix Them
The 1911 articles quote a lot of ancient Greek, given how thoroughly they tried to cover classical subjects. These invariably become gibberish when scanned. I have a copy of the 1911 EB in my office and will happily fix any of these that are brought to my attention on my talk page, as I have done for Themistius (diff). Wareh 21:32, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

Count
Does anyone know how many articles are in this category? I'd go through and count, but there must be a short cut.Ritarius 07:09, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

Referencing protocols and citing the Encyclopaedia Britannica
An observation for any interested editors, on the citing of Encyclopaedia Britannica, and a suggestion to resolve a burgeoning issue.

From my experiences of Wikipedia to date, I note that a number of articles have Encyclopaedia Britannica as their basis. For some articles this comprises the bulk of the text or even the entire article. For such articles, I typically see the following statment:

Which arises from the following template: The statement alone is fine enough when the entire content of the article comes from the Encyclopaedia Britannica, for clearly, 100% is attributable. But it is a statement of attribution, and once the article becomes less than 100% attributable to the EB, it is not a citation in any useful sense. At that point it starts to become a vague attribution, and moreso the more the article is developed away from the EB. Some - perhaps many - of you will already see where I'm going with this.

As we all know, the Encyclopaedia Britannica is often an excellent basis, especially for the static, historical component of articles, some of which is in need not of supplanting, but merely updating and supplementing, if that. However, as we also all know, with the exception of information for which we can do no better (especially, as far as I can tell, of historical nature for which facts haven't changed much if at all), it is not generally desirable to leave the article at that. Rather, especially for dynamic phenomena, meaning things which inevitably change in some fashion (even if it's primarily the understanding of underlying principles), or historical phenomena for which we have the benefit of new information, or better access to old information (or both), it is considered desirable to update the articles which were based originally on the Encyclopaedia Britannica. Hence the following type of templates found in some articles:

However, at this point, the problem of citation, or more accurately, lack of citation, arises. For as soon as we insert new text, and otherwise break up the text that originally came from the Encyclopaedia Britannica, we should commence using inline citations for the text that was from the EB. The reasons should be obvious, because they are the same as the need for any citation, from any source. So I'll not labour the point, other than to note that if we do not start using inline citations, we end up with articles containing orphaned sentences and paragraphs, for which the original source is not known. So we end up with a common-or-garden citation problem.

This is a potentially massive task, but I see that as no excuse for not chipping away at the problem. As far as I can tell, the easiest way to deal with this in the first instance is to create a reference to the volume from which the article, or the bulk of the article, came. The Balneotherapy article does this. It contains a link to an editable version of the EB, and I have added a link to a non-editable version, from the table helpfully placed in the EB article. The reason for that should be self-evident of course: a reader, or editor, should be able to check a version that is unambiguously the original.

Ideally, there should be a link to the exact page dealing with the topic of the article. I have been able to do this in the Hydrotherapy article, using the Internet Archive listings. But I find those listings currently difficult and time-consuming to search for the exact volume of a multi-volume work such as EB, so this is probably not going to be practical on a large scale in the short term. This brings us back to the task of simply citing the volume from which the text of a given article came.

This is a simple enough task, but tedious if left to one or two dedicated editors. But if each editor who cares something about these things makes a point of adding a citation to a mere few articles, the task should get done. So that is my suggestion, for what it's worth.Wotnow (talk) 07:02, 6 December 2009 (UTC)Wotnow

Joe Fedele

Joseph Fedele (known as Joe Fedele, born C. 1962) is an entrepreneur who co-founded New York-based online specialty grocery FreshDirect in 1998 along with investment banker Jason Ackerman. Fedele served as CEO and co-chairman from 1998 to 2004.

Prior to FreshDirect, Fedele was CEO and president of Fairway Market on West 132nd Street in Manhattan from 1993 to 1998. He helped the conversion of the business from Fairway to Fairway ("Like No Other Market"). During that period, the company disintermediated its supply chain for perishable and specialty products and introduced just-in-time inventory stocking.

Early life
Fedele was born in Brooklyn, New York and graduated from Hofstra University, acquiring a BBA in Accounting, Finance, Economics and Mathematics in 1980.

PFI
In 1982, he founded PFI, one of the largest protein and perishable trading companies in the US with customers such as Marubeni, Komatsu Gosho, Sumitomo, Price Club, Walmart, and others.

By Choice
By Choice was a Harlem fresh market opened by Fedele and his partners in February 1991 it was converted to Fairway "Like No Other Market."

The New York Times wrote that "Fedele got his perfect partners when the owners of the Fairway Market at Broadway and 74th Street signed on as partners."

Fairway market(s)
Fairway Market was founded in 1933. Fedele's involvement came when the founder's grandson Howard Glickberg's flagship store (Broadway/West 74th Street) helped restart the failed By Choice.

In 1991 Fedele had helped found the "Business Process" that later converted Fairway from its small format original single store on 74th and Broadway to the new Fairway ("Like No Other Market"). This independent store in Harlem was attracting more than 20,000 customers a week within two months of opening. A combination of variety, quality, and low prices in a marketplace atmosphere, attracted shoppers from all over the New York City area, from the Upper Manhattan to the then-inner-city neighborhood where it was located. Fairway achieved high quality products at low prices by cutting out all middle distributors. The store bought from "the guy who takes it from the land, takes it from the sea, puts it in a can or slaughters it. This way, it's four to five days fresher and 30% cheaper," said Fedele. Fedele, who calls himself a food technologist, believes that direct buying ensures quality. Perishables that go through layers of distribution experience temperature fluctuations and inevitably suffer from adulteration. Quality is also reinforced through selectivity. "Our expertise is to pick the best quality grades in meat, fish and produce," he said.

FreshDirect
In 1998, Fedele launched FreshDirect. He initially raised $120 million and leveraged a no-store concept to develop a better plan: start by dealing directly with farmers, fishermen, and slaughterhouses and build a single super-efficient manufacturing and distribution facility to hold down costs. That kept gross margins high enough to cover the added costs of reliable delivery, offered in densely packed neighborhoods. Kenneth Boyer, an associate professor at Michigan State University's business school who studies online grocers, says a visit to the company "really blew me away."

Harlem Fairway Certificate of Occupancy
At the reopened/retitled Fairway facility in Harlem, as of early 1996 they lacked a Certificate of Occupancy. Co-owner Dave Sneldon claimed to have "a temporary certificate of occupancy to operate a wholesale business." Fedele said "we don't charge retail prices." A NYC commissioner claimed that they didn't apply.

Fairway/FreshDirect: Fedele's role(s)
After selling his interest in Fairway (to Glickberg and his partners) to start FreshDirect in 1998, Fedele became embroiled in a series of disputes with Fairway's owners, who accused him of over-representing his role in the creation of Fairway's Harlem branch. In response, Fedele says that his description of himself as the branch's "co-founder" is an understatement. He was quoted saying, in response to Glickberg, "my former partners at Fairway did business in the traditional retail way for 30 years before we became partners, having multiple distributors between them and the products that they sold. I guess after I became their partner they had this epiphany of totally disintermediating of supply chain which resulted in the "highest value proposition possible to the consumer. Getting them better, fresher food at 30 percent savings and giving us a sustainable, competitive and differentiated advantage."

Fairway began hanging signs in its aisles attacking Fedele's credibility and the quality of FreshDirect's produce. New York Magazine wrote (May 17, 2004):

"The FreshDirect posters blaring that the company was BROUGHT TO YOU BY A CO-FOUNDER OF FAIRWAY UPTOWN and featuring a photo of Fedele made [Fairway owner Howie] Glickberg furious. He posted signs inside the West 74th Street store reading FAIRWAY IS IN NO WAY AFFILIATED WITH FRESHDIRECT. FreshDirect jabbed back by sending staffers dressed as giant fruits and vegetables to pass out fliers in front of Fairway. Then the FreshDirect website added a lengthy description of Fedele's role in the uptown Fairway, headlined: HEY FAIRWAY, WHAT ARE YOU AFRAID OF? Fairway threatened to sue."Fairway never sued, but the accusatory-claims and counter-claims continued.

Awards

 * Fedele and FreshDirect co-founder Ackerman won the Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year award for 2003 for the Metropolitan New York Area, and Fedele was nominated for the national Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year award in 2003, eventually won by John Mackey.
 * Fedele and his partners at Fairway Market won the Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year Award in New York City in 1996.

Suggested Addition
A section describing some known examples of invagination among developing cells might be a good addition. One known instance of invagination, the blastopore "bottle cells" that form during the gastrulation process in amphibians, is a good example. [ Developmental Biology Scott F. Gilbert (2014) p 245.

Hope this might serve to develop the page. Slj758 (talk) 01:57, 4 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Thank you for sharing! This item was added to the list by now, correct? Another cell biology-related addition, I guess is similar to the mitochondria one already up, is that gram-negative bacteria tend to have invaginations in their inner membrane that form structures that look similar to cristae in mitochondria, but also serve to somewhat compartmentalize biochemical pathways. These bacterial invaginations eventually led to organelles as eukaryotic cells evolved.71.181.46.21 (talk) 07:10, 12 February 2015 (UTC)

Literary concept?
How exactly does invagination qualify as a literary concept? The article itself makes no mention of it being such, but the article is in Category:Literary concepts anyway. Legocityfan119 (talk) 04:15, 9 May 2016 (UTC)

Talk:Alien vs. Predator (film)

Production countries
I've updated the production countries. The country status written in quote on the page is not up to date with the current standards of the infobox film template. Both the British Film Institute and Variety have listed extra production countries. (http://ftvdb.bfi.org.uk/sift/title/784433) and (http://www.variety.com/review/VE1117924613/). If you go into the "Credits" section on the BFI article, it goes into detail about which countries helped with production how (for example, Babelsberg pictures here: (http://ftvdb.bfi.org.uk/sift/organisation/145610) which is listed as a co-production here. I think that should be enough. Andrzejbanas (talk) 18:08, 6 May 2012 (UTC)

 * The source cited doesn't jibe with the instructions at Template:Infobox film, which say:

 * "Fill in the nationality of the film as identified in the lead of the article. The nationality of the film should be backed up with a reliable source. The source must clearly identify the nationality in a descriptive capacity, as in describing it as an American or a French film/movie etc, or in a contextual capacity such as the BFI's list of top 100 "British films" or as an example in a published work on German film etc. Sources that simply identify the country of origin as France, or the production country as U.S. etc such as is the case with resources like Allmovie and IMDb is not sufficient identification of the film's nationality. If there is a conflict between nationalities, then the nationality should not be stated and the country field should not be filled in."

 * The lead identifies this as an American film. The site referenced merely lists production countries, it does not "identify the nationality in a descriptive or contextual capacity". A list of 5 countries is too long and will only serve to confuse readers ("What about this film is Czech or German?"). Both of the primary production studios (Davis & Brandywine) as well as the distributor (20th Century Fox) are American companies. Since it was filmed primarily in the Czech Republic, one expects to see some mention of a Czech company in very detailed production credits, but this doesn't make it a "Czech film". If so many countries are potentially to be listed, we should simply leave the field out of the infobox (and the nationality out of the lead sentence) in order to simplify things for readers. Since nationality isn't an intrinsic characteristic of this film, it really doesn't bear mentioning in such a prominent place. --IllaZilla (talk) 00:14, 7 May 2012 (UTC)
 * It does if you delve further where it actually tells you what companies aided with production. For example, it lists Lonkink as a production company for the film here and lists it country here. These countries are important as they show the evolution of how Paul W.S. Anderson worked with these countries. His most recent Resident Evil film was only a Canadian-Germany production for example. Just because it's confusing for a user, doesn't mean you don't list it. As there is conflict, I think it should either list all of these, or none at all. I stand by my statements that it does suggest more to put them all in.Andrzejbanas (talk) 04:36, 7 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Like I said, if so many are potentially to be listed then it would be be easier on readers to simply leave the field out altogether. Otherwise we must harmonize the lead with the infobox by saying "Alien vs. Predator (also known as AVP) is a 2004 American-British-Czech-Canadian-German science fiction film..." which will just confuse the hell out of readers. Since the film in and of itself has no strong national ties (as do, say, Australia or The Patriot), there is no real need to assign it any national identities. --IllaZilla (talk) 05:17, 7 May 2012 (UTC)
 * I agree with IllaZilla. Polisher of Cobwebs (talk) 05:27, 7 May 2012 (UTC)
 * If there's so many in the infobox, than don't bother with it in the lead. I don't know why we'd have to re-post it twice as we don't re-post the film length's twice either. Andrzejbanas (talk) 12:06, 7 May 2012 (UTC)
 * "Fill in the nationality of the film as identified in the lead of the article." — This suggests that there should be harmony between the lead and the infobox with respect to nationality. The first sentence identifies it as an American film, yet the infobox presents it as a multinational production involving 5 different countries (and if the film country templates are used, the categories at the bottom of the page identify it as a British film, a Czech film, a Canadian film, and a German film). This is a contradiction that will likely confuse readers (to call it American in the lead and call it by 4 other nationalities elsewhere in the article). --IllaZilla (talk) 16:09, 7 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Yes but you aren't supposed to have citations in the lead either. This contradicts many of wikipedia's rules. I'm a bit flustered with it here and I'm thinking the talk page of the infobox article is a better place to discuss it. Feel free to revert it to nothing or leave it as American here for now. I'll take this up elsewhere. Cheers! Andrzejbanas (talk) 16:24, 7 May 2012 (UTC)

As per new infobox standards we are to list all the countries in the production now. Please do not revert this edit or change the countries without discussing it first. It now going by wikipedia standard and changing it will be considered vandalism. Andrzejbanas (talk) 01:19, 18 May 2012 (UTC)
 * That is outrageous. Vandalism depends on the intention of a person making an edit. Even if the change itself is not helpful, an edit is not vandalism so long as the person making it doesn't intend to be unconstructive. Polisher of Cobwebs (talk) 01:43, 18 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Even though it's new, and you are going against the policy of what should be there for person reasons then it is considered vandalism. I'm not going to call you on it, but people just reverting it proclaiming that there's still discussion going on about it (there isn't) or wait for standards to change (they have changed) is a little more than frustrating. Unless you have reasons to find my citation false or against the statement on infobox film, please don't revert it anymore. Cheers. Andrzejbanas (talk) 01:47, 18 May 2012 (UTC)
 * FWIW, infobox documentation is hardly policy. Far from it, in fact. I stand by my prior comment that if so many are potentially to be listed then it would be be easier on readers to simply leave the field out altogether. --IllaZilla (talk) 03:13, 18 May 2012 (UTC)
 * It is the standard however and what most people will revert it too. Just because it's not repeated in MOS:FILM, it should be followed. Your first complaint was that it wasn't following the rules of the infobox, but now that it's changed, you say it's not worth following? At least stick with your argument. Andrzejbanas (talk) 10:20, 18 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Because I more or less agreed with the "rule" before it was changed. I'm not so jazzed about it if it means we have to list 5 countries and categorize this as a "Czech film", "German film", etc. when there's nothing at all Czech or German about it. Besides, it's still not entirely following the "rule", which starts off "Fill in the nationality of the film as identified in the lead of the article": I see you took it upon yourself to remove mention of nationality from the lead, despite insisting on listing 5 nationalities in the infobox. If you're that attached to this "rule" then you'd have to say "Alien vs. Predator (also known as AVP) is a 2004 American-British-Czech-Canadian-German science fiction film...". You can't claim something is a standard or rule if you're only choosing to follow the parts of it you like. --IllaZilla (talk) 14:25, 18 May 2012 (UTC)
 * "there's nothing at all Czech or German about it". That's a pretty bold statement because there is actually production companies involved with this film. Missing a production company is an important as missing a screenwriter or director. If you want to fill in the lead with a production country go right ahead, I'm not sure what to place there now because we have so many countries involved. I just know flat-out "American" isn't appropriate anymore. I'd be happy to help find a solution to that problem, but I also don't want incorrect information to be posted there either. Perhaps MOS:FILM will need to be changed as well for this situation. Andrzejbanas (talk) 17:09, 19 May 2012 (UTC)
 * What I mean is, to anyone watching the film, there's no Czeck-ness or German-ness about it: No Cezch or German actors or characters, not set in either of those countries, not written or directed by Czechs or Germans, etc. The only connection to Germany is that some money came in from a company based there. It was filmed in the Czech Republic, so obviously a Czech company had some involvement, but that's a tangential connection at best. Something you'd expect to see in a finely-detailed list of every country involved in financing and producing the film in any way, but not something you'd expect to see in a synopsis of key details. --IllaZilla (talk) 22:58, 19 May 2012 (UTC)
 * It doesn't need stereotypes of German films or whatnot to be considered a production of that country. It was co-produced by Babelsberg Studios, a German Studio who worked on the film. You can read here to see how this studio has helped several Hollywood productions, not just AvsP. Andrzejbanas (talk) 11:19, 20 May 2012 (UTC)

Production countries again
As this film seems to have a bit of a big list of production countries, I've browsed around for details from each potentials countries datbases based in their own countries.
 * Filmportal.de: says: UK / Czech / Canada / Germany (Davis Entertainment (London), Brandywine Productions (US) in co-production with: Lonlink, Stillking Films (Prag), Kut Films, Babelsberg Film GmbH (Potsdam-Babelsberg) Inside Track 2LLP )source
 * AFI: Production Company: (Twentieth Century Fox) United Kingdom, Czech Republic, Canada, Germany, United States source
 * Czech Film Comission: (Production company, Davis Entertainment, Impact Pictures) USA, Germany, Czech Republic, UK source
 * BFI Film & Television Database: USA, Great Britain, Czech Republic, Canada, United Germany source Production companies: Davis Entertainment Company, Brandywine Productions. Co-production: Lonlink, Stillking Productions, Kut, Babelsberg Studios source 2 Presented/Released by Twentieth Century Fox, [Production Company]Impact Pictures source 2
 * Collections Canada: I can't find any evidence from this site that Canada was involved.

So each source states at least UK (3) Czech (4), Germany (4), Canada (3), US (3). Production companies are all over the map. Quick research does not state much of how these companies were involved otherwise. Whats the solution here? Andrzejbanas (talk) 18:22, 16 February 2018 (UTC)

 * Oh, what a mess... to make it messier, Lumiere says US / GB / CZ / DE / CA (where GB has "inc" which apparently means "incoming investment"). Perhaps in prose, call it a multinational production with the involvement of all five countries, and reference AFI, BFI, and Lumiere? In the infobox, list all five and have an inline citation listing all three of these sources? Erik (talk | contrib) (ping me) 21:04, 16 February 2018 (UTC)
 * A mess indeed! I've re-added them to the infobox per your suggestion, but am sort of struggling to find a decent way of explaining this in the prose... Andrzejbanas (talk) 19:32, 22 February 2018 (UTC)

Budget $70 million
The Numbers puts the budget at $70 million. The article previously listed $60 as claimed by Box office mojo, I've changed it to list both numbers as recommended by Template:Infobox film. The LA Times wrote: "Fox decided not to show its nearly $70-million investment to movie critics before its release."

Anonymous editors often delete budget figures when a range is presented, so I'm mentioning it here to make it clear that both numbers should be maintained. -- 109.78.214.194 (talk) 14:42, 15 December 2020 (UTC)

Richard Harwood

 * Richard Harwood is also the assumed name of National Front member Richard Verrall.

Richard Craig Harwood (born 8 August 1979) is a British cellist.

Biography
Richard Harwood was born in Portsmouth, Hampshire and began learning to play the piano aged four and the cello, aged five. He attended Ditcham Park School. He achieved his Associated Board Grade 8 in cello and piano, aged 8 and 11 respectively.

Harwood studied with Joan Dickson from 1988 until her death in 1994, before continuing with Steven Doane and David Waterman (1994–1999), Heinrich Schiff (1999-2003 at the University of Music and Dramatic Art, Vienna) and Ralph Kirshbaum (2003-2005 at the Royal Northern College of Music, Manchester). He also took masterclasses and lessons with Mstislav Rostropovich, János Starker, Steven Isserlis, Boris Pergamenschikow, Miklós Perényi, Bernard Greenhouse, Valentin Erben (Alban Berg Quartet), William Pleeth, Zara Nelsova, and Ferenc Rados.

Harwood made his concerto debut at the age of ten (playing the G minor Kabalevsky Concerto at the Adrian Boult Hall, Birmingham) and, since then, has performed concerti and recitals in major venues including the Royal Albert Hall, Royal Festival Hall, Queen Elizabeth Hall, Wigmore Hall, Musikverein, Concertgebouw, Alte Oper, Thomaskirche, and the Auditorium du Louvre.

As concerto soloist, Harwood has collaborated with conductors such as John Wilson, Okko Kamu, Marko Letonja, Douglas Bostock, En Shao, Shuntaro Sato, David Parry and Yehudi Menuhin, and with orchestras including The Philharmonia, Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra, RTÉ Concert Orchestra, Auckland Philharmonia Orchestra, and the Ural Philharmonic Orchestra.

As chamber musician, he has collaborated with the Jerusalem and Endellion Quartets, Gidon Kremer, Yuri Bashmet, Olivier Charlier, Alena Baeva, Ilya Gringolts, Pekka Kuusisto, Vilde Frang, Chen Halevi, Julian Bliss, Martin Roscoe, Finghin Collins, Ashley Wass and Julius Drake, among others. In 2014, Harwood became the cellist of the Sitkovetsky Trio.

Harwood has performed on BBC radio, having made his BBC Radio 3 debut at the age of thirteen with a live recording of the Elgar Concerto. He has also given performances for Radio France, MDR, RTÉ, and Radio New Zealand.

Harwood's discography includes a critically acclaimed debut disc for EMI Classics, recorded with pianist Christoph Berner, and Composing Without The Picture, a 2013 solo album of concert works written by film composers, on Resonus. Harwood appears in Phil Grabsky's 2009 documentary In Search of Beethoven which received its theatrical premiere at the Barbican Theatre, London, was broadcast on Sky Arts, and shown in cinemas worldwide.

In 2002, Harwood took part in the Park Lane Group Young Artists' Series on the South Bank and premiered solo works written for him by Dominic Muldowney and Martin Butler. He has also worked with Philip Grange, giving the London premiere of his Nocturnal Image, and given the European premiere of David Horne's Zip with the composer at the piano. For his solo album Composing Without the Picture, Harwood premiered works written for him by Christopher Gunning, Alex Heffes, Fernando Velázquez, and Benjamin Wallfisch.

Harwood has won numerous awards including the 2004 Pierre Fournier Award for 'cellists. In 1992, he became the youngest winner of the Audi Junior Musician Award. He won the Worshipful Company of Musicians Maisie Lewis Young Artists Award in 2001 and, in 2004, became the first British 'cellist ever to be awarded the title "Bachpreisträger" at the International Johann Sebastian Bach Competition, Leipzig. Among many other accolades, he received the special "mention" prize from the jury at the Concours de violoncelle Rostropovitch, Paris in 2005.

In 1997, BBC Music Magazine selected him in their worldwide "Who's Who" edition and, in 2000, Harwood was entered into the "International Who's Who in Music" as an 'up and coming talent on the brink of worldwide recognition.'

Harwood plays a cello by Francesco Rugeri, dated 1692.

George Parks Highway

The George Parks Highway (numbered Interstate A-4 and signed Alaska Route 3), usually called simply the Parks Highway, runs 323 miles (520 km) from the Glenn Highway 35 miles (56 km) north of Anchorage to Fairbanks in the Alaska Interior. The highway, originally known as the Anchorage-Fairbanks Highway, was completed in 1971, and given its current name in 1975. The highway, which mostly parallels the Alaska Railroad, is one of the most important roads in Alaska. It is the main route between Anchorage and Fairbanks (Alaska's two largest metropolitan areas), the principal access to Denali National Park and Preserve and Denali State Park, and the main highway in the Matanuska-Susitna Valley. The route's Interstate designation is not signed; rather, its entire length is signed as Alaska Route 3.

It is a common misconception that the name "Parks Highway" comes from the road's proximity to the Denali state and national parks; it is in fact in honor of George Alexander Parks, governor of the Territory of Alaska from 1925 to 1933. However, the aptness of the name was recognized when it was chosen.

Mileposts along the Parks Highway do not begin with 0 (zero). Instead, they begin with Mile 35 (km 56), continuing the milepost numbering of the Glenn Highway where the two highways intersect near Palmer. The 0 (zero) mile marker for the Glenn Highway is at its terminus in downtown Anchorage at the intersection of East 5th Avenue and Gambell Street. Thus mileposts along the Parks Highway reflect distance from Anchorage, which is not actually on the Parks Highway.

There are two sections of the highway that are built to freeway standards. These include an area near the highway's intersection with the Glenn Highway in Palmer and a stretch known as the Robert J. Mitchell Expressway in Fairbanks leading to the highway's junction with the Richardson Highway (AK 2).

Interstate Highway System
George Parks Highway is part of the unsigned part of the Interstate Highway System as Interstate A-4.

Exit list
In the "Mile" column, the first number is the actual mileage of the Parks Highway, and the second mile is based on the mileposts along the highway itself.

Calneh

Calneh (כַלְנֵה) was a city founded by Nimrod, mentioned three times in the Hebrew Bible, , &. The verse in Genesis reads:
 * וַתְּהִי רֵאשִׁית מַמְלַכְתֹּו בָּבֶל וְאֶרֶךְ וְאַכַּד וְכַלְנֵה בְּאֶרֶץ שִׁנְעָֽר׃
 * "And the beginning of his kingdom was Babel, and Erech, and Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar" (KJV)

Historical scholarship proposed candidate locations for the city of "Calneh", but it is now considered most likely, in a suggestion going back to W.F. Albright (1944), that the word did not in origin refer to a city but has been corrupted from an expression meaning "all of them". In the Revised Standard Version, the English translation of the verse reads:
 * The beginning of his kingdom was Babel, Erech, and Accad, all of them in the land of Shinar.

Calneh ("Chalanne") was identified with Ctesiphon in Jerome's Hebrew questions on Genesis (written ca. 390), following Eusebius of Caesarea. Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary silently follows Sir Henry Rawlinson in interpreting the Talmudic passage Joma 10a identifying Calneh with the modern Nippur, a lofty mound of earth and rubbish situated in the marshes on the east bank of the Euphrates, but 30 miles distant from its present course, and about 60 miles south-south-east from Babylon.

A second Calneh is mentioned in the Book of Amos, and some have also associated this place with Calno which is mentioned in similar terms in the Book of Isaiah. This is identified by some archaeological scholars as Kulnia, Kullani or Kullanhu, modern Kullan-Köy, between Carchemish on the Euphrates River and Arpad near Aleppo in Northern Syria, about ten kilometers southeast from Arpad. Canneh, mentioned in the Book of Ezekiel 27:23 as one of the towns with which Tyre carried on trade was associated with Calneh by A.T. Olmstead, History of Assyria. Xenophon mentioned a Kainai on the west bank of the Tigris below the Upper Zab.

Catherine Cookson

Dame Catherine Ann Cookson, DBE (née McMullen; 20 June 1906 – 11 June 1998), was a British writer. She is in the top 20 of the most widely read British novelists, with sales topping 100 million, while she retained a relatively low profile in the world of celebrity writers. Her books were inspired by her deprived youth in South Shields (historically part of County Durham), North East England, the setting for her novels. With 104 titles written in her own name or two other pen names, she is one of the most prolific British novelists.

Early life
Cookson, registered as Catherine Ann Davies, was born on 20 June 1906 at 5 Leam Lane in Tyne Dock, South Shields, County Durham, England. She was known as "Katie" as a child. She moved to East Jarrow, which would become the setting for one of her best-known novels, The Fifteen Streets. The illegitimate child of an alcoholic named Kate Fawcett, she grew up thinking her unmarried mother was her sister, as she was brought up by her grandparents, Rose and John McMullen. Biographer Kathleen Jones tracked down her father, whose name was Alexander Davies, a bigamist and gambler from Lanarkshire, Scotland.

She left school at 14 and, after a period of domestic service, took a laundry job at Harton Workhouse in South Shields. In 1929, she moved south to run the laundry at Hastings Workhouse, saving every penny to buy a large Victorian house, and then taking in lodgers to supplement her income.

In June 1940, at the age of 34, she married Tom Cookson, a teacher at Hastings Grammar School. After experiencing four miscarriages late in pregnancy, it was discovered she was suffering from a rare vascular disease, telangiectasia, which caused bleeding from the nose, fingers, and stomach and resulted in anaemia. A mental breakdown followed the miscarriages, from which it took her a decade to recover.

Writing career
She took up writing as a form of therapy in order to tackle her depression, and she became a founding member of the Hastings Writers' Group. Her first novel, Kate Hannigan, was published in 1950. Though it was labelled a romance novel, she expressed discontent with the stereotype. Her books were, she said, historical novels about people and conditions she knew. Cookson had little connection with the London literary circus.

Cookson wrote almost 100 books, which sold more than 123 million copies, her novels being translated into at least 20 languages. She also wrote books under the pseudonyms Catherine Marchant and a name derived from her childhood name, Katie McMullen. She remained the most borrowed author from public libraries in the UK for 17 years, up until four years after her death, losing the top spot to Dame Jacqueline Wilson only in 2002.

Books in film, on television and on stage
Many of Cookson's novels have been adapted for film, radio, and the stage. The first film adaptation of her work was Jacqueline (1956), directed by Roy Ward Baker, based on her book A Grand Man. It was followed by Rooney (1958), directed by George Pollock, based on her book Rooney. Both films starred John Gregson. For commercial reasons, the action of both films was transferred from South Shields to Ireland.

In 1983 Katie Mulholland was adapted into a stage musical by composer Eric Boswell and writer-director Ken Hill. Cookson attended the première.

It was on television, however, that she had her greatest media success, with a series of dramas that appeared over the course of a decade on ITV and achieved huge ratings. Eighteen books were adapted for television between 1989 and 2001. They were all produced by Ray Marshall from Festival Film & TV who was given permission by Cookson in 1988 to bring her works to the screen. The first film to be made, The Fifteen Streets starring Sean Bean and Owen Teale, was nominated for an Emmy award in 1990. The second production, The Black Velvet Gown, won an International Emmy for Best Drama in 1991. The mini series regularly attracted over 10 million audiences and are still showing in the UK on Drama and the Yesterday Channel.

Philanthropy
In 1985, Cookson pledged more than £800,000 to the University of Newcastle. In gratitude, the university set up a lectureship in hematology. Some £40,000 was given to provide a laser to help treat bleeding disorders and £50,000 went to create a new post in ear, nose, and throat studies, with particular reference to the detection of deafness in children. She had already given £20,000 towards the university's Hatton Gallery and £32,000 to its library. In recognition of this generosity, a building in the university medical faculty has been named after her. Her foundation continues to make donations to worthy causes in the UK, particularly those offering services to young people and cultural ventures, such as the Tyneside Cinema.

Honours
She was created an Officer of the Order of the British Empire in 1985, and was elevated to Dame Commander of the Order of the British Empire in 1993.

Cookson received the Freedom of the Borough of South Tyneside, and an honorary degree from the University of Newcastle. The Variety Club of Great Britain named her Writer of the Year, and she was voted Personality of the North East.

She was the subject of This Is Your Life in 1982 when she was surprised by Eamonn Andrews.

Cookson was awarded an honorary fellowship at St Hilda's College, Oxford in 1997 after donating £100,000 to the college, although she was too ill to travel to receive it.

Later life and death
In later life, Cookson and her husband, Tom, returned to the North East and settled first in Haldane Terrace, Jesmond, Newcastle upon Tyne. They then moved to Corbridge, a market town near Newcastle, and later to Langley, Northumberland, a small village nearby. As her health declined, they moved for a final time, back to Jesmond in 1989 to be nearer to medical facilities. For the last few years of her life she was bed-ridden, and she gave her final TV interview to North East Tonight, the regional ITV Tyne Tees news programme, from her sickbed. It was conducted by Mike Neville.

Cookson died at the age of 91, nine days before her 92nd birthday, at her home in Newcastle. Her novels, many written from her sickbed, continued to be published posthumously until 2002. Her husband Tom died just 17 days later, on 28 June 1998. He had been hospitalised for a week and the cause of his death was not announced. He was 86 years old. The couple was married for 50 years.

Legacy
In 1992, the inaugural Catherine Cookson Prize took place and was won by author Val Wood and her debut novel, The Hungry Tide, which subsequently went on to become a best-seller.

In March 2008, the Dame Catherine Cookson Memorial Garden was unveiled in the grounds of South Tyneside District Hospital in South Shields, based on the theme of a serpentine symbol, commonly used to symbolise health and caring. The hospital occupies the site of the Harton Workhouse, where Cookson worked from 1924 to 1929. The project was partly funded by the Catherine Cookson Trust.

Tom and Catherine, a musical about the couple's life, was written by local playwright Tom Kelly and opened in 1999. It played to sell-out crowds at the Customs House in South Shields.

Portrayals in fiction
Cookson was portrayed by actress Kerry Browne in the 2018 award-winning film Our Catherine, co-written by Tom Kelly.

Talk:Fomor (World of Darkness)

Context
Is this a movie? Or a commericial videogame. It's not reality, so it needs to be set in some context. if possible. Wetman 23:34, 16 Aug 2004 (UTC)

It appears the lack of context has been addressed.

Some mention of [i]Freak Legion: A Players Guide to Famori[/i] as it seems to be the only sourcebook dedicated to the Famori and the only resource that makes more of them than the typically sparse Adversaries entry in Werewolf.

Pickup on South Street

Pickup on South Street is a 1953 Cold War spy-themed film noir written and directed by Samuel Fuller, and released by 20th Century-Fox. In 2018, Pickup on South Street was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry as being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant." The film stars Richard Widmark, Jean Peters, and Thelma Ritter. It was screened at the Venice Film Festival in 1953.

Plot
On a crowded New York City subway train pickpocket Skip McCoy steals Candy's wallet. Unbeknownst to either it contains microfilm of top-secret government information. Candy was delivering an envelope as a final favor to her ex-boyfriend Joey, who told her that it contained stolen business secrets.

Government agent Zara had Candy under surveillance, hoping she would lead him to the top man in a Communist spy ring. He seeks police help identifying the pickpocket. Captain Dan Tiger has professional informant Moe Williams brought in. She asks Zara several questions about the pickpocket's technique, negotiates a price, and gives Tiger a list of names; Zara quickly identifies Skip from his mug shot. He tries to get Skip to give up the film, revealing its importance and appealing to his patriotism, but Skip denies he has it and laughs in his face.

Meanwhile, Joey persuades a reluctant Candy to track down the thief on her own. The trail leads to Moe, who is delighted to be able to sell the same information again.

Candy searches Skip's waterfront shack that night while he is out. Spotting only a flashlight when he returns, he knocks the prowler cold. When Candy comes to, she tries to get the film but fails.

The second time she visits she is puzzled when he calls her a "Commie" and "a Red" and demands $25,000 for the film. He reveals that he knows what is on it. Skip thinks she is only acting. Despite his rough treatment she finds herself falling for him.

When she returns to Joey his superior gives him a day to get the film back, and leaves him a gun. Candy finally realizes the truth. She turns to Moe for help, since Skip will not believe her if she warns him he is in danger. Moe tries to convince Skip to give the film to the government but fails. She goes home and finds Joey waiting for her. She refuses to give him Skip's address, and reveals she knows about the Communist plot. Joey shoots her dead.

The next morning Skip returns home to find Candy there. She blames herself for Moe's death, and is dismayed that he is still willing to trade with the Commies. When he starts to leave with the film, she knocks him out with a bottle and takes it to Zara and Tiger. Zara asks her to give it to Joey so he can lead them to his boss. Candy does, but Joey notices there's a frame missing. He beats her in an attempt to get Skip's address, then shoots her as she tries to flee. Rifling her purse, he finds the address.

Skip learns of Candy's beating and visits her in the hospital, comforting her with a romantic kiss.

Joey and his boss go to the shack, but Skip hears them coming and hides underneath. When Joey is ordered to deliver the film as is, Skip follows him to a subway station. He watches as an envelope is exchanged in a restroom, then knocks out the courier and chases after and beats up Joey.

Later, at the police station, Tiger predicts Skip will louse up his pardon and return to his criminal ways. A defiant Candy, arm in arm with her new love, says that's not the way it will be.

Production
Darryl F. Zanuck showed Fuller, who was then under contract with 20th Century-Fox, a script by Dwight Taylor called Blaze of Glory about a woman lawyer falling in love with a criminal she was defending in a murder trial. Fuller liked the idea but knew from his previous crime reporter experience that courtroom cases take a long time to play out. Fuller asked Zanuck if he could write a story of a lower criminal and his girlfriend that he originally titled Pickpocket but Zanuck thought the title too "European".

Fuller had memories of South Street from his days as a crime reporter and came up with his new title. Fuller met Detective Dan Campion of the New York Police Department to research the background material of his story to add realism, with Fuller basing the role of "Tiger", the police detective, on Campion who had been suspended without salary for six months for manhandling a suspect.

Fuller turned down many actresses for the lead role including studio favorites Marilyn Monroe; Shelley Winters; Ava Gardner, who looked too glamorous; Betty Grable, who wanted a dance number written in; and initially Jean Peters, whom he did not like when he saw film of her in Captain from Castile. With only a week to go before the film started production, Fuller saw Peters walk into the studio's commissary while having lunch. Fuller noticed Peters walked with a slightly bow-legged style that many prostitutes also had. Fuller was impressed with Peters' intelligence, spunkiness, and different roles at the studio when he tested her the Friday before shooting started on the Monday. When Betty Grable insisted on being in the film and threatened to cause problems, Fuller threatened to walk off the film. Peters got the role.

In August 1952, the script was deemed unacceptable by the Production Code, by reasons of "excessive brutality and sadistic beatings, of both men and women", including a vicious beating the character "Candy" (Peters) receives from ex-boyfriend and Communist operative "Joey" (Kiley). Although a revised script was accepted soon after, the studio was forced to shoot multiple takes of a particular scene where Peters and Kiley frisked each other for loot as being too risqué.

The French release of the movie removed any reference to spies and microfilm in the dubbed version. They called the movie Le Port de la Drogue (Drug's harbour). The managers of 20th Century-Fox thought that the theme of communist spies was too controversial in a country (France) where the Communist Party was an influential and legitimate part of public life.

FBI director J. Edgar Hoover had lunch with Fuller and Zanuck, and said how much he detested Fuller's work and especially Pickup on South Street. Hoover objected to Widmark's unpatriotic character especially his line "Are you waving the flag at me?". Zanuck backed Fuller up, telling Hoover he knew nothing about making movies, but removed references to the FBI in the film's advertising, which is also never mentioned by name in the film.

Adaptations
In June 1954, Ritter co-starred alongside Terry Moore and Stephen McNally in a Lux Radio Theatre presentation of the story. 20th Century-Fox remade the film in 1967 as The Cape Town Affair, directed by Robert D. Webb and starring Claire Trevor (in the Thelma Ritter role), James Brolin (in his first leading role), and Jacqueline Bisset.

Critical response
When the film was released, reviews were somewhat mixed. Bosley Crowther wrote:

"It looks very much as though someone is trying to out-bulldoze Mickey Spillane in Twentieth Century-Fox's Pickup on South Street, ... this highly embroidered presentation of a slice of life in the New York underworld not only returns Richard Widmark to a savage, arrogant role, but also uses Jean Peters blandly as an all-comers' human punching-bag. Violence bursts in every sequence, and the conversation is slangy and corrupt. Even the genial Thelma Ritter plays a stool pigeon who gets her head blown off ... Sensations he has in abundance and, in the delivery of them, Mr. Widmark, Miss Peters, Miss Ritter and all the others in the cast do very well. Murvyn Vye, as a cynical detective, is particularly caustic and good, and several other performers in lesser roles give the thing a certain tone."

The staff at Variety magazine also had a mixed response:

"If Pickup on South Street makes any point at all, it's that there is nothing really wrong with pickpockets, even when they are given to violence, as long as they don't play footsie with Communist spies ... Film's assets are partly its photography, which creates an occasional tense atmosphere, and partly the performance of Thelma Ritter, the only halfway convincing figure in an otherwise unconvincing cast ... Widmark is given a chance to repeat on his snarling menace characterization followed by a look-what-love-can-do-to-a-bad-boy act as Widmark's hard-boiled soul melts before Peters' romancing."

In recent years, critical appraisals of Pickup have warmed considerably. The movie has a 93% rating on Rotten Tomatoes from 40 reviews with an average score of 7.8/10. The consensus summarizes: "Powerfully acted and satisfyingly dark, Pickup on South Street is a Cold War noir that moves confidently to the rhythm of city street life." Roger Ebert regards Pickup as one of Fuller's "noir classics."

In 2000 Rick Thompson suggested that Pickup may have been the basis of Robert Bresson's Pickpocket (1959), with which it shares many themes:

"... including the death of the mother-figure; the hero's problem making commitment to the potential lover; a series of philosophical dialogues between the hero and his police antagonist; the interlinking of pickpocketing and sexuality; and the construction of the pickpocket hero as an extreme and deliberate outsider.'"
