Talk:Monia Mazigh

Educational institution?
Can anyone provide conclusive evidence for which university Mazigh attended? I found a Globe and Mail article written by her where she lists HEC as the only institution that accepted her, but all the press coverage about her and her own website list her doctorate as being from McGill.

A natural interpretation that's consistent with the facts is that she was accepted at HEC, then later transferred to McGill. Does anyone know if this is the case?

As far as I know HEC and McGill are not affiliated in any way such that Mazigh could claim that her doctorate was from both institutions. To my knowledge HEC is a mostly French-language school and affiliated with the University of Montreal, while McGill is not.

For now I've changed the text to state her doctorate is from McGill. Should anyone have evidence suggesting otherwise, feel free to post it here. --Saforrest 15:46, Aug 10, 2004 (UTC)

Thank you, Saforrest, but may I suggest what might perhaps be better practice for an online encyclopaedia? Instead of simply publicising disputed information on the internet until such a time as anyone can produce "evidence supporting otherwise", how about NOT publicising disputed information on the internet before there is any evidence to support it? Just a thought... Mardiste (talk) 03:24, 17 February 2009 (UTC)

 * HEC, UQAM, McGill and Concordia offer a joint Ph.D. in Administration. There's a chance she studied financial economics in that program? 74.12.9.191 06:25, 17 September 2006 (UTC)

Thompson Rivers University has a staff directory. It will be updated in a few months.

She's writing a book
Anchoress (talk) 09:43, 18 December 2007 (UTC)

Is there a title yet?

Edit
Changed "opposed" to "does not support" to more accurately reflect Monia's stated opinion at the time. According to her words, Monia saw same sex marriage as a moral and religious issue and as a human rights issue and, as such, felt (or said that she felt) that she did not feel comfortable either supporting or opposing it. Unless there is information to the contrary, we have to take Monia at her word and, as far as I know, Monia has never campaigned against same-sex marriage.

If this issue reveals a true conflict between her strong religious beliefs and her strong belief in human rights it is an important point to make.

Stephen Lewis also admits to being conflicted between being Jewish and his belief in human rights for all when it comes to the Palestinians, and his son Avi seems less conflicted about this siding more automatically and vehemently on the side of human rights. Thus, we can't rule out at this point Baara being a public figure and her future might be impacted on how she deals with the moral dilemma her mother avoids by abstaining on this issue (or something related to this issue). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.77.37.48 (talk) 20:27, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

Edirne Province

Edirne Province is a Turkish province located in East Thrace. Part of European Turkey, it is one of only three provinces located entirely within continental Europe. Its area is 6,145 km2, and its population is 414,714 (2022). Edirne Province is bordered by Tekirdağ Province and Kırklareli Province to the east, and the Gallipoli peninsula of Çanakkale Province to the south-east. It shares international borders with Bulgaria (Haskovo and Yambol Provinces) to the north and Greece (Eastern Macedonia and Thrace) to the west. Edirne is the capital of the province, and the largest city. It is the only province of Turkey that borders Greece.

History
Edirne, capital of the province, is notable for serving as the third capital of the Ottoman Empire from 1363 to 1453.

Edirne province was included in the Second Inspectorate General which was created on the 19 February 1934 and extended over the provinces of Edirne, Çanakkale, Kırklareli, Tekirdağ. It was ruled by an Inspector General, who had wide-ranging authorities over civilian, military and educational matters. The office of the Inspectorate-General was abandoned in 1948 but the legal framework of the Inspectorate-Generals was only abolished in 1952, under the Government of the Democrat Party.

Until the reign of Selim I, there were remnant populations of so-called Tengri Turks in the province of Edirne who adhered to the ancient beliefs of Tengrism. It is assumed that it was a group of nomadic Yörüks.

Districts

Edirne province is divided into 9 districts (capital district in bold):
 * Edirne
 * Enez
 * Havsa
 * İpsala
 * Keşan
 * Lalapaşa
 * Meriç
 * Süloğlu
 * Uzunköprü

Sophie Anderton

Sophie Louise Balinska-Jundzillova (born 14 May 1977 ) is an English model and reality television personality.

Her modelling career included a campaign for Gossard bras in 1996, and later included appearances for a range of other brands. Since 2000 she has also appeared in television programmes including I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here! and Celebrity Big Brother.

Career
Anderton was born in Bristol, England. In 1996 she appeared in the Gossard Glossies and Gossard Wonderbra "Girl in the grass" national advertising campaign shot by Herb Ritts, which included the strapline "Who said a woman couldn't get pleasure from something soft?" The campaign attracted a record number of complaints (321) to the Advertising Standards Authority, none of which were upheld.

Anderton has modeled for Gossard (1998), the Flora London Marathon, British Berries summer fruits (2006), Maxim, Peacocks and La Senza and graced the cover of British GQ.

In 2004, Anderton was a contestant on the fourth series of ITV's I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here!. She appeared in the TV series Simply the Best and a celebrity edition of the UK version of Fear Factor. In 2005, she appeared on the programme Cold Turkey, which documented her attempts to quit smoking cigarettes; she later became a representative for a smoking cessation program called QS7D (Quit Smoking in 7 Days).

In 2006, Anderton was a contestant on ITV's Love Island. In the same year, she appeared on Sky1's Cirque de Celebrité but withdrew after sustaining ligament damage.

In August 2013, Anderton became a housemate on the twelfth series of Celebrity Big Brother. She was eliminated from competition in an episode that aired on 3 September 2013.

Personal life
From 2004 until 2007, Anderton was a patron of Action on Addiction in London, a charity and addiction research centre investigating drug and alcohol dependence.

She was misdiagnosed and treated for bipolar disorder in 2006. She said, "I had depression. They wrongly diagnosed me and put me on a bucket load of blood pills. It was absolutely bonkers."

In 2009, Anderton complained to the police about dozens of text messages left on her mobile phone. A man was eventually charged with harassment and convicted.

In 2013, just before she participated in Celebrity Big Brother 12, Anderton acknowledged past difficulties with substance abuse.

In 2021, Anderton married Count Kazimierz Balinski-Jundzill, the father of Ella Balinska.

Ermengarde/Erembourg
Hi Widsith, we already had an article under Ermengarde of Maine so I merged the Erembourg info there. I suspect, as with many women from that era, her name was recorded in various ways and whatever she called herself might be unknown. Adam Bishop (talk) 21:23, 26 January 2009 (UTC)

Ishtar unicode edit
Many do not have the proper subset of fonts available to correctly display the unicode characters you have entered. Many Operating Systems also do not have automated means to notify users how or where to obtain such missing or incomplete font sets. Could you please include both the unicode text and the images as well? I would myself, but have no idea which unicode characters they are to begin with and I do not want to step on your edit by reverting it. :) Have previously used text-based browsers and the inclusion of such text representations as yours was highly valued at the time.

Population update project
Hi. The 18th edition of Ethnologue just came out, and if we divide up our language articles among us, it won't take long to update them. I would appreciate it if you could help out, even if it's just a few articles (5,000 articles is a lot for just me), but I won't be insulted if you delete this request.

A largely complete list of articles to be updated is at Category:Language articles citing Ethnologue 17. The priority articles are in Category:Language articles with old Ethnologue 17 speaker data. These are the 10% that have population figures at least 25 years old.

Probably 90% of the time, Ethnologue has not changed their figures between the 17th and 18th editions, so all we need to do is change "e17" to "e18" in the reference (ref) field of the language info box. That will change the citation for the artcle to the current edition. Please put the data in the proper fields, or the info box will flag it as needing editorial review. The other relevant fields are "speakers" (the number of native speakers in all countries), "date" (the date of the reference or census that Ethnologue uses, not the date of Ethnologue!), and sometimes "speakers2". Our convention has been to enter e.g. "1990 census" when a census is used, as other data can be much older than the publication date. Sometimes a citation elsewhere in the article depends on the e17 entry, in which case you will need to change "name=e17" to "name=e18" in the reference tag (assuming the 18th edition still supports the cited claim).

Remember, we want the *total* number of native speakers, which is often not the first figure given by Ethnologue. Sometimes the data is too incompatible to add together (e.g. a figure from the 1950s for one country, and a figure from 2006 for another), in which case it should be presented that way. That's one use for the "speakers2" field. If you're not sure, just ask, or skip that article.

Data should not be displayed with more than two, or at most three, significant figures. Sometimes it should be rounded off to just one significant figure, e.g. when some of the component data used by Ethnologue has been approximated with one figure (200,000, 3 million, etc.) and the other data has greater precision. For example, a figure of 200,000 for one country and 4,230 for another is really just 200,000 in total, as the 4,230 is within the margin of rounding off in the 200,000. If you want to retain the spurious precision of the number in Ethnologue, you might want to use the sigfig template. (First parameter in this template is for the data, second is for the number of figures to round it off to.)

Dates will often need to be a range of all the country data in the Ethnologue article. When entering the date range, I often ignore dates from countries that have only a few percent of the population, as often 10% or so of the population isn't even separately listed by Ethnologue and so is undated anyway.

If Ethnologue does not provide a date for the bulk of the population, just enter "no date" in the date field. But if the population figure is undated, and hasn't changed between the 17th & 18th editions of Ethnologue, please leave the ref field set to "e17", and maybe add a comment to keep it so that other editors don't change it. In cases like this, the edition of Ethnologue that the data first appeared in may be our only indication of how old it is. We still cite the 14th edition in a couple dozen articles, so our readers can see that the data is getting old.

The articles in the categories linked above are over 90% of the job. There are probably also articles that do not currently cite Ethnologue, but which we might want to update with the 18th edition. I'll need to generate another category to capture those, probably after most of the Ethnologue 17 citations are taken care of.

Jump in at the WP:LANG talk page if you have any comments or concerns. Thanks for any help you can give!

Douglas MacArthur II

Douglas MacArthur II (July 5, 1909 – November 15, 1997) was an American diplomat. During his diplomatic career, he served as United States ambassador to Japan, Belgium, Austria, and Iran, as well as Assistant Secretary of State for Legislative Affairs. He was the nephew of the U.S. general Douglas MacArthur.

Early life and education
MacArthur's parents were Captain Arthur MacArthur III and Mary McCalla MacArthur. Through his mother, he was a grandson of Bowman H. McCalla, great-grandson of Colonel Horace Binney Sargent, and great-great-grandson of Lucius Manlius Sargent. Named for his uncle, General Douglas MacArthur, he was born in Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania, in 1909.

MacArthur graduated from Milton Academy in Milton, Mass., and from Yale College, Class of 1932. He married Laura Louise Barkley on August 21, 1934, the daughter of future U.S. Vice President Alben Barkley.

He married Laura Louise Barkley, the daughter of President Harry S. Truman's vice president Alben W. Barkley in 1934. They had a daughter named Laura MacArthur, two grandchildren, and two great grandchildren.

Diplomatic career
After serving as an Army officer, MacArthur began his Foreign Service career in 1935 with a post in Vancouver. He was assigned to Vichy France during the early years of World War II, served as secretary of the U.S. Embassy there from 1940 to 1942, and was interned in Baden Baden, Germany with other U.S. diplomatic staff and civilians for two years after the U.S. broke relations with the Vichy government. Following an internee exchange in March 1944, he served as part of General Dwight Eisenhower's political staff and then led the political section of the U.S. Embassy in Paris until 1948. He went on to become chief of the State Department's Division of Western European Affairs in 1949, where he assisted in the formation of NATO, and served as Counselor of the State Department from 1953 to 1956, where he led the U.S. negotiations for the SEATO treaty.

Ambassador to Japan
MacArthur was appointed U.S. Ambassador to Japan in December 1956 and presented his credentials in February 1957.

During his four years in Tokyo, MacArthur oversaw the re-negotiation of the U.S.-Japan Security Treaty, known as "Anpo" in Japanese. MacArthur appeared on the cover of the June 27, 1960, issue of Time magazine, in which he was characterized as "the principal architect of present-day U.S. policy toward Japan."

However, the new treaty was met with the massive Anpo Protests in Japan, and was only ratified with great difficulty. As the protests grew in size in June 1960, MacArthur summoned the heads of major newspapers and television station NHK to his office and demanded more favorable coverage of the treaty.

Then on June 10, MacArthur deliberately provoked the so-called "Hagerty Incident" (ハガチー事件, Hagachii jiken). That afternoon, MacArthur was leaving Tokyo's Haneda Airport in a black car carrying himself and President Eisenhower's press secretary James Hagerty, who had just arrived in Japan to prepare for a planned visit by Eisenhower, when MacArthur ordered that the car be deliberately driven into a large crowd of anti-treaty protesters. The mob surrounded the car and proceeded to smash the car's windows and tail lights, slash its tires, and dance on the roof until MacArthur and Hagerty finally had to be rescued by a U.S. Marines helicopter. MacArthur had hoped that by provoking the incident, he would force the Japanese government to carry out a more forceful police response to suppress the protests ahead of Eisenhower's planned arrival. However, MacArthur's gambit backfired, as widespread shock at the Hagerty Incident helped force prime minister Nobusuke Kishi to cancel Eisenhower's visit, for fears that his safety could not be guaranteed.

It was revealed in 1974 that MacArthur had negotiated a secret agreement with the Japanese foreign minister Aiichiro Fujiyama to allow the transit of American nuclear weapons through Japanese territory. It was also revealed, through documents declassified in the 2000s, that MacArthur pressured the Japanese judiciary, including Chief Justice Kōtarō Tanaka, to uphold the legality of the United States military presence in Japan after a lower court decision found it unconstitutional.

Other posts
Following his time in Japan, MacArthur served as Ambassador to Belgium (1961–1965), Assistant Secretary of State (1965–1967), Ambassador to Austria (1967–1969) and Ambassador to Iran (1969–1972). While in the latter post, he escaped an attempted kidnapping by Mojahedin-e Khalq, an Iranian dissident organization in 1970.

Later life and death
MacArthur died in Washington, D.C., in 1997.

Styphnolobium

Styphnolobium is a genus of flowering plants in the pea family, Fabaceae. It includes nine species of small trees and shrubs native to China and to the Americas, from the southern United States to Colombia. It belongs to subfamily Faboideae, and was formerly included within a broader interpretation of the genus Sophora. It was recently assigned to the unranked, monophyletic Cladrastis clade. They differ from the genus Calia (mescalbeans) in having deciduous leaves and flowers in axillary, not terminal, racemes. The leaves are pinnate, with 9–21 leaflets, and the flowers in pendulous racemes similar to those of the black locust. Necklacepod is a common name for plants in this genus.

Etymology
From Greek styphno-, stryphno- "sour, astringent" and lobion "pod", because of the fresh pods' pulp taste.

Species
Styphnolobium comprises the following species:

Section Oresbios

 * Styphnolobium affine (Torr. & A. Gray) Walp., the coralbean or Eve's necklace is native to the southern United States in Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas and Louisiana. It is a large shrub or small tree, growing to 5–7 m tall, with white or pale violet flowers. The seeds of this species are believed to be poisonous. The sapwood leaches a yellow dye on contact with water.
 * Styphnolobium burseroides M. Sousa & Rudd
 * Styphnolobium caudatum M. Sousa & Rudd is native to Nicaragua.
 * Styphnolobium conzattii (Standl.) M. Sousa & Rudd
 * Styphnolobium monteviridis M. Sousa & Rudd is native to Central America.
 * Styphnolobium parviflorum M. Sousa & Rudd
 * Styphnolobium protantherum M. Sousa & Rudd
 * Styphnolobium sporadicum M. Sousa & Rudd

Section Styphnolobium

 * Styphnolobium japonicum (L.) Schott, the pagoda tree (Chinese Scholar, Japanese pagodatree; syn. Sophora japonica), is native to eastern Asia (mainly China; despite the name, it is introduced in Japan), is a popular ornamental tree in Europe, North America and South Africa, grown for its white flowers, borne in late summer after most other flowering trees have long finished flowering. It grows into a lofty tree 10–20 m tall with an equal spread, and produces a fine, dark brown timber.

Uses
The pagoda tree is widely used in bonsai gardening. The Guilty Chinese Scholartree was a historic pagoda tree in Beijing, on which the last emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Chongzhen, hanged himself.

Styphnolobium japonicum (Chinese: 槐; pinyin: huái; formerly Sophora japonica) is one of the 50 fundamental herbs used in traditional Chinese medicine.

Abraham Trembley

Abraham Trembley (3 September 1710 – 12 May 1784 Geneva) was a Genevan naturalist. He is best known for being the first to study freshwater polyps or hydra and for being among the first to develop experimental zoology. His mastery of experimental method has led some historians of science to credit him as the "father of biology".

He also wrote on religion and morals.

Biography
Trembley came from an officer's family from Geneva, Republic of Geneva. He was uncle to Charles Bonnet, with whom he corresponded regularly, as well as to René-Antoine Ferchault de Réaumur (1683–1757) and Lazzaro Spallanzani (1729–1799). Trembley acted as tutor to the two children of Count Willem Bentinck van Rhoon (1704–1774), a prominent Dutch politician at the time. The boys were 3 and 6 when Trembley, during lessons in which he went fishing in the ponds outside the house, accidentally discovered the regenerative powers of the Hydra. Those lessons took place at the Count's summer residence of Sorgvliet nearby The Hague. Sketches and drawings of his experiments with the children, made by Cornelis Pronk, are kept in the archives of the town of The Hague, the Netherlands.

Work on Hydra
While Trembley thought he had discovered a new species, Leeuwenhoek had in fact first published on Hydra in a 1702–1703 volume of Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society, describing them as a type of "animalculum". In his work Leeuwenhoek clearly described the process of budding, as well as their tentacles' contractility and the presence of cnidocyte batteries on tentacles.

Trembley's findings were published in a groundbreaking book in 1744, Mémoires pour servir à l'histoire d'un genre de polypes d'eau douce, Gebr. Verbeek, Leiden, translated into German in 1775 as Abhandlungen zur Geschichte einer Polypenart des süssen Wassers. The book includes some of the (engraved) drawings of Pronk. His discoveries led to his membership of the prestigious Royal Society in London and a correspondent member of the académie des sciences in France. He became also recipient of the Copley medal.

Some attribute Trembley as being the first to study stem cells, although he obviously did not refer to them as such. Trembley did however make note of their incredible regenerative capacity.

Talk:Corn whiskey

Untitled
"Georgia Moon" brand of corn whiskey is not aged and is clear. It is an imitation of moonshine -- even the bottle looks like a Mason jar, and proclaimes "aged less than 30 days". Judging from its appearance, it is likely that it has not been aged, at least in a barrel, at all.

Rlquall 15:50, 10 Aug 2004 (UTC)

> 80 proof
The article said "not more than 40 percent by volume". I'm thinking that should be not LESS than, as there exist 100 proof (50% volume) corn whiskeys (ie Virginia Lightning). AnarchyElmo (talk) 03:34, 31 July 2009 (UTC)

Definitions
"Corn Squeezin's" is different from "Corn Whiskey" in that corn sqeezin's is not a distilled spirit made from grain, but a fermented drink made from the sweet sap of the corn stalk. A farmer may place jugs with corncob stoppers in the opening (corncobs have a pourous center)on the floor of a silo, once the silo is filled with corn & cornstalks, the weight of the stored corn will squeeze the sap from the cornstalks, which will drip down & eventually fill the jugs, which will naturally ferment and produce corn squeezin's. In this regard corn sqeezin's is closer to a wine than a whiskey, & is not illegal to make. A press may be used to make this on a smaller scale. (tra1er, 8/17/07)

Article name
To conform with Wkistandards, this article needs to be changed to Maize Whiskey — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:881:200:F424:4C51:B825:4B7:8C5F (talk) 23:34, 3 October 2018 (UTC)

The jar is not a Mason jar
To be accurate, it is a screw-top jar, but not a Mason jar. A Mason jar has a two-part lid-and-band closure suitable for home canning. 184.187.191.147 (talk) 18:02, 6 August 2023 (UTC)

Harry Hooton

Henry (Harry) Arthur Hooton (9 October 1908 – 27 June 1961) was an Australian poet and social commentator whose writing spanned the years 1930s–1961. He was described by a biographer as ahead of his time, or rather "of his time while the majority of progressive artists and thinkers in Australia lagged far behind". Initially a socialist and "wobbly", he later professed anarchism and became an associate of the Sydney Push during the 1940s, with connections to many other Australian writers, film makers and artists. Hooton's constant attitude and literary style was extravagant, provocative and explicitly outrageous.

Early life
Hooton was born in Doncaster, Yorkshire, England His father was Levi Hooton, a railway shunter, and his mother's maiden name was Margaret Lester-Glaister. He had an older brother, Frank.

At the age of 16 he arrived in Sydney on 28 October 1924, on the ship Demosthenes as part of an Empire scheme, the Dreadnought Trust, with fifty-nine other boys. After humping his swag around much of New South Wales and Queensland through the Great Depression, in 1936, just as his first pieces of writing were being published, Hooton was introduced to the poet Marie E. J. Pitt living in Melbourne and carried on a correspondence with her for the next eight years.

Literary development
Hooton's first book of poetry, "These Poets", appeared in 1941, published at his own expense in a small print run of up to 400 copies, most of which Hooton either gave away or swapped. It struck a chord with readers, receiving much critical acclaim.

In 1943 Hooton met the authors Nettie Palmer and Miles Franklin while they were travelling through Newcastle. Through Miles Franklin he was introduced to the writings of Carl Sandburg and the American literary scene. Moving to Sydney in 1943 Hooton submitted a book of poems titled "Leave Yourself Alone" to a publisher without success. Later he self-published "Things You See When You Haven't Got A Gun". In a new magazine, untitled, unpretentious and called simply "No. 1", the poetry of Hooton, A. D. Hope, and Gary Lyle was featured. Hooton and Hope also featured in "No. 2".

Hooton's "Things You See When You Haven't Got A Gun" was reviewed by Max Harris in one line in the Ern Malley issue of Angry Penguins, "Our anarchist bull careers madly through his intellectual fog."

"Sydney Push" milieu
In Sydney after World War II, Hooton was drawn to the intellectual circles of Sydney University, the Sydney Push and the wider artistic society of the Lincoln coffee lounge, described by Richard Appleton as the "Mecca of the Australian arts",  and the Tudor Hotel. Appleton and others have noted Hooton's opposition to the generally favoured realist philosophy of Professor John Anderson and its activist offshoot, the Libertarian Society."When Anderson's realist philosophy held intellectual sway at Sydney University, Hooton attacked vehemently philosophy and universities (he claimed sometimes that Anderson was his main enemy, although he defended Anderson when he thought he was being wrongly attacked). To a literary world influenced by people such as Joyce, Yeats, Pound and Eliot, Hooton decried them as anti-artists, philistines and charlatans. He admitted only a few people as poets, including Whitman, Wilde and Henry Lawson." Appleton explained: "Hooton held that polemic was an art form and that all poetry should be didactic", an obtuse view which, coupled with his paradoxical debating style, brought Hooton into conflict with Libertarians (who especially revered Joyce's Ulysses) and with more puristic poets such as Lex Banning, James McAuley and A. D. Hope.

Yet his presence was compelling and characteristically welcomed by those who would otherwise be in disagreement. Many years later, Germaine Greer noted his influence on her: "...Harry, the utopian anarchist who had admired her red stockings, who believed people were perfect and who was not weighed down by the tremendous forces the anarchistic pessimists felt bore down on them all the time. 'Alas, I understand him much better now,' she said, twenty years later. '... but I think a lot of the things I've done since I've done out of a desire to please Harry Hooton...'"

While Hooton was living a very bohemian life in Sydney, he was connecting with literary people in Japan, India, Greece, South Africa, England, France, New Zealand, and the USA. Hooton had corresponded with counter-culture figures in California, and with Tuli Kupferberg who would later form the rock group The Fugs. He contributed to many periodicals and journals in addition to those he brought out himself. "He has published not only in Australia but in London, San Francisco, Chicago, New York, etc, and has had some material translated into Greek. He is far better known overseas than he is here".

Anarcho-technocracy
Hooton argued that man should have power over things, including machines, but never over other men, applying to himself the term "anarcho-technocrat". "He regarded the age of man as passed, and sees the age of the machine as the proper object of pursuit... In his quest for power over machines, Hooton is a technocrat, and in his opposition to power over men, he is an anarchist."

Hooton never completed his philosophical treatise, titled "Militant Materialism", although he did complete six of its eight chapters. His ideas were magically simple. Leave man alone, man is perfect. Concentrate instead on matter. He formulated what he called Anarcho-technocracy: 'The Politics of Things'.

Hooton saw proof copies of the last book published during his lifetime, It Is Great To Be Alive, published by Margaret Elliott (Margaret Fink), just before he died of cancer in 1961.

An 83-minute experimental film, Harry Hooton – Outsider Poet was made by Arthur and Corinne Cantrill in 1969. In the soundtrack, Hooton outlines his social philosophy in a series of recordings made shortly before his death in 1961.

Farmersgolf

Farmersgolf (Boerengolf in Dutch) is a farm land game modelled after the sport of golf. It originated from a cheese farm run by Peter Weenink in Lievelde, a small village in the Achterhoek region of the Netherlands.

It was invented out of frustration with costly golf course fees in the Netherlands, and with a test called the GVB (Golfvaardigheidsbewijs) which most Dutch courses require players to pass before being allowed to play.

The first game was played in 1999, and since then games have also been played in Germany, Belgium, Sweden, France and Finland. There are currently about 70 farmers golf locations in the Netherlands, and over 110 Europe-wide. In 2005, over 10,000 people played the game on Weenink's course alone.

Farmersgolf is played with a special wooden golf club, with a club head in the shape of a wooden shoe, or clog (in Dutch: klomp). A farmers golf ball is, with its 20 centimeter diameter, much larger than a traditional golf ball.

A golf hole is made by placing a bucket in the ground and a flagpole beside it. The 8 to 10 holes have, on average, more than 200 meters distance between them.

The defining feature of Farmersgolf is that the game is played on an otherwise unaltered farm. Obstacles and "hazards" include anything one might find on the farm, including live cows, ditches and barbed wire.

The Farmersgolf name is trademarked in several countries and Weenink hopes to establish an international association that will raise the game to the level of serious sport.

British Empire Trophy
Hi Pc13, first, thanks for the check-up on the page. I do have a quick question: was there a particular reason to remove cell width parameters from the table outside of having driver names underneath each other instead of side by side for races with shared drives? Regards, MotorOilStains (talk) 19:05, 4 May 2014 (UTC)

 * Hey, thanks for the reply... all points you've made are indeed valid and are designed to speed up data entry. My question has had yet another reason, not rooted in self indulgent page visuals. Upon prompting of a few peers in my age-group, I've posted a general note on my user page (User feedback) which may explain my motive for spending the extra time defining such table parameters (tables are not the only feedback I've received since starting to post). Please keep in mind that I'm still new and have a lot to learn about Wiki conventions but I would much appreciate if you had a spare minute to go over the context of the note and let me know your thoughts...

There, she was half of All My Children supercouple Edmund and Maria. She received a Daytime Emmy Award nomination in the category of "Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series" for All My Children. She also received a nomination in 2004 in the category of "Outstanding Original Song" for composing the song "Dance Again with You", which was used as a backdrop to the lovemaking scene after the third marriage of the characters Edmund and Maria in June 2003.

In 2010, LaRue reprised her role as Maria temporarily on January 5 for All My Children's 40th anniversary.

LaRue also performed in television movies over the years, appearing as Annette Funicello in a biographical movie of the former Mouseketeer and also in the adaptation of Danielle Steel's Remembrance as Princess Serena.

In 2005, LaRue portrayed Linda Lorenzo, George Lopez's "Long Lost" sister, on the TV sitcom George Lopez. In the fall 2005, LaRue began the role of Natalia Boa Vista on CSI: Miami. It was revealed in the end of season four that Eva's character, Natalia Boa Vista, was the mole in the lab reporting back to the FBI. Beginning with season five, LaRue became a full-time cast member.

In July and September 2011, LaRue reprised her role as Dr. Maria Santos Grey on All My Children as a guest star as the show wrapped up its network run on ABC. In 2013, she played Agent Tanya Mays in the episode "Final Shot" on Criminal Minds.

The incident was used in CSI: Miami in the season five episode "Darkroom" soon after the revelation. Nika guest-starred in the episode as a reporter. She was initially offered the role of Eva's on-screen sister and a surviving victim, but declined that role, describing it as being "too surreal".

LaRue was married to actor John O'Hurley for two years until 1994. She married fellow All My Children co-star John Callahan in November 1996. The couple divorced in 2005. The couple served as co-hosts of the 1997 Miss America pageant in Atlantic City, New Jersey. The couple's daughter Kaya McKenna Callahan was born in December 2001.
