Thank you for your response to my edit or new user log.

I hope to put more about myself here, as well as maybe what I see that needs work, or doesn't exist, so as to get advice.

e.g. Is this bad?: I intend to start an article on Dr. Stanley Krippner with only a couple of sentences and only do full research/ invest alot of time if no one more expert than I picks up the ball. I didn't intend to do this article in coming here, but rather noticed it would make an important link in an article I was reading, only to find no article. I guess that's probably the way around here.
 * That's fine, as long as what you add makes it easier for others to expand what you've started to write. A stub like "Dr. Stanley Krippner was a doctor who lived in the 2nd millenium AD" might be deleted, since it would fool others into thinking there was an article about him (no red link) when really there wasn't.

P.S. Are edits to personal pages, and talk submissions normally considered minor for purposes of the watch functions? greentwin
 * No, unless you mark a change minor by checking off that box at the bottom of the edit page (or have set the right preference in your user preferences, and all changes are marked minor by default), your changes will show up as major. +sj +

This one is probably not 100 % obvious. This entry was included here because this man founded the BBC news website. Seems a bit light for me, let's count the opinions for this possible inclusion. --French Tourist 17:18, 16 Oct 2004 (UTC)

 * Weak keep, just within the realms of notability. Darksun 17:30, 16 Oct 2004 (UTC)

 * Keep. /u p p l a n d 21:52, 16 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete. Article does not establish notability. Gamaliel 00:10, 17 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * K It does, in that is specifically mentions the OBE. Anyone who lands one must be notable, since they are (usually) awarded for notable achievements. I would agree that starting and remaining editor-in-chief of one of the world's most-read and most-reliable news sites.  I suppose we should delete Rupert Murdoch as well, I mean, he only founded News Corporation. Chris 01:08, 17 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * Sorry, running a popular website doesn't make you the equivalent of Rupert Murdoch, nor is it automatic grounds for notability in my opinion. My vote was based on an earlier version of the article which did not mention the OBE, but I'm not sure that all 9905 members of the order are notable. Gamaliel 01:52, 17 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * Show me *your* OBE, and then I'll accept that, despite being awarded for notable achievements, holders of OBE are not notable. Note the difference between "running a popular website" and being in charge of somewhere with an Alexa rank of 39.  Chris 02:27, 17 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * People are notable for their accomplishments, not their decorations. Lots of people are in charge of important things, not all of those people are notable. Gamaliel 02:53, 17 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * You do not get an OBE unless you've done something significant. (If you are just a civil servant all your life, and have done piddly squat, but be a good civil servant who became a permanent undersecretary or somesuch, in the UK, you would only get the MBE) 132.205.95.64 02:38, 18 Oct 2004 (UTC)

Fifehead Neville

Fifehead Neville is a village and civil parish in the county of Dorset in southern England, situated in the Blackmore Vale about 2 mi southwest of the town of Sturminster Newton. In the 2011 census the population of the parish was 147.

Toponymy
The first part of the name Fifehead Neville derives from the Old English fīf and hīd, meaning '(estate of) five hides of land'. It was recorded as Fifhide in the Domesday Book of 1086. The second part derives from the de Neville family who were here in the 13th century; in 1287 the name Fyfhud Neuyle was recorded. This differentiated this Fifehead from other Dorset manorial holdings called Fifehead (Fifehead St Quintin and Fifehead St Magdalen).

History
In a field bordering the River Divelish the remains of two wings of a Roman villa were found in 1880 and 1903. Floor mosaics and part of a hypocaust system were uncovered. The archaeological findings are on view in the Dorset Museum in Dorchester.

The Domesday Book records that in 1086 the estate of Fifehead Neville had eight households and was part of Pimperne Hundred. The tenant-in-chief of the estate was Waleran the Hunter whose tenant was Ingelrann. The overlordship descended to Walter Walerand (d. 1200–1) and to his daughter and co-heiress Isabel de Waleran who married William de Nevill. The overlordship was inherited by Isabel de Nevill's daughter Joan de Nevill (d. 1263), wife of Jordan de St. Martin.

Crossing the Divelish is an old packhorse bridge that has two pointed arches and is probably medieval.

Before 1920 the parish was in two parts, each with its own settlement—Fifehead Neville in the north and Lower Fifehead or Fifehead St Quentin in the south. It is probable each settlement had previously had its own open field system. Fifehead St Quentin (or Fifehead St Quintin) was previously a detached part of Belchalwell, a former parish that is now part of the parish of Okeford Fitzpaine.

Geography
Fifehead Neville parish is in the North Dorset administrative district in the Blackmore Vale, sited next to the River Divelish which drains land north of the Dorset Downs around Bulbarrow Hill. The parish, which covers 1350 acre at an elevation of 60 to 90 m, is also drained by a small tributary of the River Lydden in the west. The underlying geology is mostly Corallian Limestone, with a small amount of Kimmeridge clay in the east and some Oxford clay at Deadmoor Common in the west. Measured directly, Fifehead Neville village is about 2 mi SW of Sturminster Newton, 8 mi NNW of Blandford Forum and 14 mi NNE of the county town, Dorchester.

Demography
In the 2011 census Fifehead Neville civil parish had 61 dwellings, 56 households and a population of 147.

The population of the parish in the censuses between 1921 and 2001 is shown in the table below:

In 2013 the estimated population of the parish was 180.

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Klipper. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Klipper~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 01:10, 20 March 2015 (UTC)

IPv6 support for template ((IP-user other))
I must say it is an amazing way to detect IPv4 users without Lua. But things have changed these years and do we need a Lua module to make the implement less hackish and add IPv6 support as well? (I'm not so familiar with English Wikipedia and did not find a wheel to do so) Thanks, WhitePhosphorus (talk) 04:54, 25 December 2019 (UTC)

 * ✅ - I took a look at it. I went ahead and updated IP-user other so that it now detects IPv6 user pages too. Didn't need Lua for that. The IPv6 detection part is actually cleaner code than the IPv4 detection, since it was simpler to detect IPv6 user page names. Note that the template now uses a IP-user other/core subtemplate, in case you are copying it to another wiki.
 * And thanks for pointing out the need for IPv6 detection. I looked around and noticed that some of our system messages such as MediaWiki:Anontalkpagetext only shows on IPv4 user pages. So now that I have updated the ((IP-user other)) template we can use that one to fix all that.

Back?!
Welcome back, David! Is this just scratching an itch, or do you think it's likely to be longer-term? 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」☎ Dinoguy1000 17:03, 31 December 2019 (UTC)

 * Thanks! And well, only time will tell. But I won't be back full time, my other project is more important to me. But I might go back to periodic template editing. Right now I am updating/modernising some of my old stuff here. Like templates, MediaWiki messages, image descriptions for images I uploaded and so on. And answering (old) questions on the talk pages of templates and articles I used to work with.
 * --David Göthberg (talk) 21:55, 31 December 2019 (UTC)

 * Aah, I can relate; I've pretty well moved on to other things myself, as well. If you don't mind me asking, what's your other project? 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」☎ Dinoguy1000 22:55, 31 December 2019 (UTC)

 * I am a software engineer specialising in computer communication. Since 1997, and full time since 2000 I have been researching and teaching algorithms for totally serverless peer-to-peer networks with billions of nodes. Or in plain english: How to make billions of home computers cooperate without any servers. (Mostly on top of the existing Internet, but also in radio based ad-hoc networks = wireless mesh networks.) For instance, since 2006 we have all the stuff needed to build a Wikipedia without any servers at all. Just an application that the users install locally on their computer, and then all those applications cooperate to make a global Wikipedia. And yes, it could still have editing, version handling, edit filters, bans, different user rights like admins, and so on. People could of course also set up "servers" so users without the application could read and edit. But if/when those "servers" went down, those with the application wouldn't even notice and just go on reading and editing as usual.
 * I tend to edit Wikipedia for some months when I need a break from all that. Sometimes I get stuck here longer... :)
 * --David Göthberg (talk) 00:25, 1 January 2020 (UTC)

 * Ooh, that's some really cool stuff! Though I think a lot of it goes over my head. It certainly beats the pants off of anything I do... =)
 * Generally nothing I do here these days is nearly as involved as it used to be, but don't hesitate to ping me if you think I can contribute usefully on something you're looking at (though I also really doubt I have much to say on anything that you wouldn't have already considered). =) 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」☎ Dinoguy1000 05:50, 1 January 2020 (UTC)

 * Haha, thanks. Yeah, it has been the trickiest research in my life.
 * And thanks for the offer of help here at Wikipedia. I am out of practise so I might need it. For instance, today I resorted to ask for advice over at the Village pump (technical). It was nice to see that the Village pump still is a fast and nice way to get advice.

Signing messages
Doesn't Wiki mark unsigned messages using the poster's username? — Preceding unsigned comment added by DuncanMacC (talk • contribs) 00:46, 5 February 2020 (UTC)

 * Well, both yes and no. The wiki software itself does not sign your messages. A talkpage is just another "edit-any-way-you-want" wiki page. But we have a bot (SineBot) that goes around checking edits and adding the kind of slightly ugly signatures as you now see on your message here. And sometimes when we edit a message in an unusual way the bot doesn't even understand how to sign it. So it is better to use the "signature and timestamp" button at the top of the edit window to get a nicer looking signature, and get it immediately. As I did in this message. That button adds --~ when you press it, which is the wiki code for a signature. A common practice among "old" editors is that when we do forget to sign and we then later see that the bot has signed for us, then we edit the message again and instead add the normal nicer signature.
 * Also another thing we do (as I did in this answer) is that we usually indent our messages using the ":" wikicode. And we add more of those ":" for each message. But the first message in the section we don't indent. So open the edit window and take a look at the code for this section.
 * And another thing we sometimes do is the that you can see I did at the start of my message which causes the system to give you a notification that someone mentioned your username in the text.

Cloudmining scammer
What is your position on hashlists.com?? 43.231.28.179 (talk) 20:45, 3 July 2022 (UTC)

Do you think you can hide from world?
After scamming 1000s of people you can't hide from us. Soon will track you down. Where is your brother 43.231.28.179 (talk) 20:47, 3 July 2022 (UTC)

 * I have no affiliation with hashlists.com, and this is probably the first time ever I hear about them. I did a quick search and it seems that hashlists.com is about crypto mining, and that people say it is a scam.

 * I think you found my name for one of the following reasons:
 * I wrote the article Hash list here on Wikipedia and made the hash list diagram for it. That article is not about cryptocurrency or crypto mining. Instead it is about a method we use in peer-to-peer applications such as Bittorrent. I have also edited several related pages about p2p technology here at Wikipedia.
 * I am a scientist researching peer-to-peer technology (p2p). See the message Back?! above for a longer explanation what that means. That means my name often pops up on web sites about p2p stuff. Since crypto currency is a related technology sometimes people also mention my research and my name on web sites about crypto currency. I have also talked at conferences that had two topics: P2p technology, and crypto currency.
 * At the conferences I often get the question what I think about crypto currency. I answer that it sucks for a bunch of reasons (both technical and human reasons). I don't like crypto currency. When they ask what improvements I might suggest I explain one of my solutions that I think would work better. One of the current big developments in crypto currency uses the same idea and they started developing it some years after I had suggested that solution at several conferences. So it might be based on my ideas and thus they might be mentioning my name in their forums and documentation. But it might also just be a case of engineers coming to the same conclusions when they see the same problem. I haven't gotten around to ask those developers where they got the idea from.
 * I made a bunch of diagrams about cryptography and about hashing that we use here at Wikipedia. My diagrams about public-key cryptography have become very widespread: They are used at some universities when teaching crypto, they have been printed in books about cryptography and about crypto currency, and it wouldn't surprise me if you would see my diagrams in crypto currency web sites / documentation since crypto currency also uses such public-key cryptography. Often people correctly put my name next to the pictures.
 * So you see, you must have stumbled on my name by accident.

Talk:Academy Award for Best Original Score

Did everything listed on this page win an Academy Award? As nothing in the page says otherwise, should people assume so? Or perhaps is the first the winner and others nominees? If so, the article should say so. Wondering simply, -- Infrogmation 17:23, 16 Oct 2004 (UTC)

I've made a minor change, which I also made months ago. Don't know why I noticed it to begin with. In the category of 1981 nominations, Alex North was the composer for the movie Dragonslayer, not Jerry Goldsmith.

Major Omission
Why was there no nomination for Leonard Bernstein and West Side Story or no win for him for "Original Music Score". He writes the entire show and the scribes win for it?? I wonder if Bernstein's complete omission had something to do with his being gay? WSS is possibly the very finest musical score in history.Dcrasno (talk) 20:39, 7 January 2009 (UTC)

Leonard Bernstein was previously nominated in 1954 for his film score for "On the Waterfront". So there was no "gay" blacklist against him. Bernstein composed the music for the stage version, but did not work on the film version so that is why that he is ineligible. Only the orchestrators, composers, arrangers, etc. who actually worked on adapting the music for the film's score get nominated. Andrew Lloyd Weber adapted his own music for his films (Jesus Christ Superstar, etc), so that's why he can get nominated. I'm sure that if Bernstein had actually worked in arranging/adapting for the film version that he would have been nominated as well. This would be the same as if Jane Austen were to share an Oscar with Emma Thompson for the screenplay that Thompson wrote. Austen wrote the entire novel, but someone else wins for it? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kaneshirojj (talk • contribs) 23:47, 17 November 2009 (UTC)

Jan A.P. Kaczmarek missing from list
Is there a reason why Jan A.P. Kaczmarek is missing from the list of Academy Award winners? Later on he is named as winning the Academy Award for Finding Neverland (which he indeed did). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.136.144.26 (talk) 09:08, 16 April 2009 (UTC)

Thomas Newman (Living Nominations
I Believe Thomas Newman needs to be removed from the Nominations w/No wins list. He won for "Skyfall" if I'm not mistaken. Can someone verify and make the edit? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:8:8580:8B0:9DDE:3A1:3494:327C (talk) 23:52, 27 July 2014 (UTC)

He did not. He won the BAFTA Award for Best Film Music. Mychael Danna won the Oscar for Life of Pi.Crboyer (talk) 23:59, 27 July 2014 (UTC)

Posthumous awards and nominations
This Winners and Nominees Chart uses the notations (p.r.) and (p.n.) repeatedly. They link to the Wikipedia article for List of posthumous Academy Award winners and nominees. However, nowhere in the article does it state what the notations mean. (At least, I did not see anything about it.) I assume that the notations mean, respectively, "posthumous recipient" and "posthumous nominee". However, this should be stated explicitly somewhere within the article or within the Chart. Thanks. Joseph A. Spadaro (talk) 19:55, 17 August 2019 (UTC)

2023 winner
Posting this here after some recent back-and-forth. The 2023 winner is credited in reliable sources as Volker Bertelmann not as Hauschka. The official list is here. A survey of reliable sources shows Volker Bertelmann is the name he used for this submission and win. Here are one and two of countless examples. Per WP:V, this article should list the winner as Volker Bertelmann. Whether the article Hauschka should be moved to Volker Bertelmann is a separate question. Paul Erik (talk) (contribs) 03:55, 13 March 2023 (UTC)

 * He was previously nominated as Hauschka, therefore the article should keep it as Hauschka. Editmaster4 (talk) 20:05, 22 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Can you provide some reference for that? I think the ones provided by @Paul Erik are pretty solid and would require very good counterexamples. Gorpik (talk) 08:28, 25 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Yes, clearly the preponderance of reliable sources still credit him as Volker Bertelmann. Paul Erik  (talk) (contribs) 02:25, 24 October 2023 (UTC)

 * I'm trying to put it in it's correct form, while having a note addressing how he was credited as his other name. This should be a fine compromise. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.92.185.152 (talk) 04:52, 15 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Disagree. We go by what reliable sources say. Paul Erik  (talk) (contribs) 02:41, 6 June 2024 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Bartosz Milewski

Bartosz Milewski
I created this vanity page some time ago when experimenting with Wikipedia. It became embarassing when my name appeared in the list of Polish Physiscist along with people like Leopold Infeld. My contribution to physics is not that significant as to make my name mentionable in the context of Infeld. The best proof that the page is inappropriate is the lack of articles describing my own peers in the fields I have contributed to.

Live attenuated influenza vaccine

Live attenuated influenza vaccine (LAIV) is a type of influenza vaccine in the form of a nasal spray that is recommended for the prevention of influenza. It was developed by the Syrian-American epidemiologist Hunein Maassab.

It is an attenuated live vaccine, unlike other influenza vaccines, which are inactivated vaccines. Live attenuated influenza vaccine is administered intranasally, while inactivated vaccines are administered by intramuscular injection. Live attenuated influenza vaccine is sold under the brand name FluMist Quadrivalent in the United States and the brand name Fluenz Tetra in the European Union. FluMist was first introduced in 2003 by MedImmune.

Medical uses
The live attenuated influenza vaccine is used to provide protection against the flu caused by infection with influenza viruses.

Contraindications
The use of the live attenuated influenza vaccine is contraindicated, and should therefore not be used, in the following populations:
 * children <24 months of age, due to increased risk of wheezing
 * individuals with a history of hypersensitivity to previous influenza vaccination.
 * individuals with a history of hypersensitivity, especially anaphylactic reactions, to eggs, egg proteins, gentamicin, gelatin, or arginine or to any other ingredient in the formulation
 * People with a medical condition that places them at high risk for complications from influenza, including those with chronic heart or lung disease, such as asthma or reactive airways disease
 * People with medical conditions such as diabetes or kidney failure or people with illnesses that weaken the immune system, or who take medications that can weaken the immune system
 * Children less than 5 years old with a history of recurrent wheezing
 * Children or adolescents receiving aspirin
 * People with a history of Guillain–Barré syndrome, a rare disorder of the nervous system
 * Pregnant women
 * People who have a severe allergy to chicken eggs or who are allergic to any of the nasal spray vaccine components

Production
The live attenuated vaccine is based on a flu strain that does not cause disease, that replicates well at relatively cold temperatures (about 25 °C, for incubation purposes), and replicates poorly at body temperature (which minimizes risk to humans). Genes that code for surface proteins (targeted antigens) are combined with this host using genetic reassortment from strains that are projected to be circulating widely in the coming months. The resulting viruses are then incubated in chicken eggs and chick kidney cells. To make the refrigerated version, the virus is purified in centrifuges through a sucrose gradient, then packaged with sucrose, phosphate, glutamate, arginine, and gelatin made from pigs that has been hydrolyzed with acid.

Risks
Even though the virus in the live attenuated influenza vaccine is attenuated (low in virulence), it is still a living virus, and may cause an infection with complications in people with weakened immune systems or other underlying medical conditions. The live attenuated influenza vaccine is recommended only for people 2–49 years of age, and people who have a weakened immune system, pregnant women, and people with certain chronic diseases may not be eligible to receive live attenuated influenza vaccine. In contrast, inactivated virus vaccines contain no living virus, and cannot cause a live infection. Persons receiving the live attenuated influenza vaccine may shed small amounts of the vaccine virus during the first week. People coming in contact with the vaccinated person are not considered to be at risk, unless their immune systems are severely weakened (for example, bone marrow transplant recipients) and possible recombination with other (wild or live vaccine) flu strains.

History
The live attenuated influenza vaccine was developed by the University of Michigan School of Public Health in Ann Arbor, Michigan and later by Aviron, in Mountain View, California, under the sponsorship of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) in the 1990s. MedImmune, Inc. purchased Aviron in 2002, and the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the live attenuated influenza vaccine in June 2003.

The FDA initially approved the live attenuated influenza vaccine only for healthy people aged 5 to 49 because of concerns over possible side effects. The live attenuated influenza vaccine is approved and recommended for healthy children 24 months of age and older. The FDA approved the unfrozen refrigerated version for the same age group (ages 5–49) in August 2006, following completion of phase III clinical trials.

The cold-adapted influenza vaccine version of the vaccine is called CAIV-T, and is stable for storage in a refrigerator, rather than requiring freezer storage as did the originally-approved formulation. Approved for the 2007-2008 flu season, the refrigerated formulation can be distributed more economically, so that the price differential with shots (which had hampered sales of the original frozen version of FluMist) is now largely eliminated. FluMist was initially priced higher than the injectable vaccines, but sold only 500,000 of the four million doses it produced its first year on the market, despite a comparative shortage of flu vaccine in fall 2004. The price was sharply lowered the next year, and the company reported distributing 1.6 million doses in 2005. Because of the price drop, despite selling almost three times as many doses in 2005, the company reported $21 million in FluMist sales, compared to $48 million the previous year.

Society and culture
MedImmune is one company that manufactures the live attenuated influenza vaccine, which it sells under the brand name FluMist in the United States, Canada, and Japan, and the brand name Fluenz Tetra in the UK and European Union. For the 2010–2011 flu season, FluMist was the only live attenuated influenza vaccine approved by the FDA for use in the US. All other FDA-approved lots were inactivated virus vaccines. In September 2009, a live attenuated influenza vaccine for the novel H1N1 influenza virus was approved and the seasonal intranasal vaccine was approved by the European Medicines Agency (EMA) for use in the European Union in 2011. The quadrivalent version was approved for use in the European Union in 2013.

, the only other company holding live attenuated influenza vaccine rights is BioDiem of Australia. BioDiem licensed rights to private production of the vaccine in China to Changchun BCHT Biotechnology, which also holds public rights for production in China sublicensed from the World Health Organization.

It was the first and,, the only live attenuated vaccine for influenza available outside of Europe. In September 2009, a live attenuated influenza vaccine for the novel H1N1 influenza virus was approved. In 2011, the vaccine was approved by the European Medicines Agency (EMA) for use in the European Union under the brand name Fluenz.

AstraZeneca acquired MedImmune and retired the MedImmune name.

Legal status
In May 2024, the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) of the European Medicines Agency (EMA) adopted a positive opinion, recommending the granting of a marketing authorization for the medicinal product Fluenz, intended for the prevention of influenza disease in children and adolescents. The applicant for this medicinal product is AstraZeneca AB.

Research
The live attenuated influenza vaccine is designed to be quickly modifiable to present the surface antigens of seasonal flu. The modifiability could also allow it to be quickly customized as a vaccine against a pandemic influenza if one were to emerge. In light of the global spread of H5N1, ways of reducing human mortality in the event of an H5N1 pandemic have been investigated. Modifying FluMist to serve as a specific human H5N1 vaccine is among the measures studied.

In June 2006, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) began enrolling participants in a Phase I H5N1 study of an intranasal influenza vaccine candidate based on MedImmune's live, attenuated vaccine technology.

In September 2006, the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) reported that inoculation with a live attenuated influenza vaccine modified to present the surface antigens of certain H5N1 variants provided broad protection against other H5N1 variants in the mouse and ferret models. Attenuated live viruses were found protective against H5N1 in mice and chickens in a 2009 study.

"Several trials have reported that live attenuated influenza vaccines can boost virus-specific CTLs as well as mucosal and serum antibodies and provide broad cross-protection against heterologous human influenza A viruses." (58, 59) "[V]accine formulas inducing heterosubtypic T cell–mediated immunity may confer broad protection against avian and human influenza A viruses."

Legend (TV series)

Legend is a science fiction Western television series that ran on UPN from April 18, 1995, until August 22, 1995, with one final re-airing of the pilot on July 3, 1996. It starred Richard Dean Anderson and John de Lancie.

Plot
Ernest Pratt, a gambling, womanizing, cowardly, hard-drinking writer has created a dashing literary hero, Nicodemus Legend, the main character in a series of wildly imaginative dime novels set in the untamed West. Because Pratt writes the novels in the first person and has posed as Legend for their cover art, many readers believe that Pratt is Nicodemus Legend.

In the pilot episode, when Pratt learns that Nicodemus Legend has been impersonated and a warrant issued for his arrest, he travels to the scene of the incident to clear the name of his protagonist.

Pratt meets up with the impersonator, a great admirer of his tales, the eccentric European scientist Janos Bartok – a Nikola Tesla analogue who had been Thomas Edison's research partner – and his brilliant assistant Huitzilopochtli Ramos, who has taken every single course Harvard University had to offer. Bartok "borrowed" the Legend persona in order to help the townspeople of Sheridan, Colorado.

They enlist the reluctant Pratt to their cause, and show him how their scientific expertise and outlandish inventions (frequently based on ideas from Pratt's books) can bolster the impression that Pratt really is Nicodemus Legend. Bartok says: "Your celebrity has the power to give our enemies pause. My science can increase that reputation. And together, we will create the real Legend."

Suffering from writer's block, under pressure from his publishers, and inspired, in spite of himself, at the thought of doing real good, Pratt reluctantly agrees to assume the persona of his literary creation and to live as the image he created of an adventurous and heroic man. Together, they adventure throughout the West solving mysteries, capturing wrong-doers, and making scientific discoveries.

Main

 * Ernest Pratt, played by Richard Dean Anderson, was born into a good, conservative Boston family in 1836 and attended Harvard College for a short time, where he fell under the spell of the Romantic poets and Gothic literature. Defying his banker father, Pratt decided to pursue the life of a writer and headed west to San Francisco where he became an apprentice reporter for the San Francisco Chronicle. A chance meeting with Mark Twain changed Pratt's life and inspired the young man to set to work on his first successful book, Solitary Knight of the High Plains, which introduced the dashing hero, Nicodemus Legend. Pratt's technique of writing in the first person helps give his readers the impression that Legend's exploits are real.
 * Nicodemus Legend, also played by Anderson, is the fictional hero of numerous popular novels by Ernest Pratt. Legend is a champion of the underdog, a crusader for justice and truth. His perfect manners, good looks, courage and dedication, and beautiful hand-beaded buckskin outfits make him a dashing and romantic figure. Legend is tough and quick-witted with an impressive knowledge of science. He hates violence, preferring to use brains instead of a gun. In sharp contrast with Pratt, Legend does not drink, smoke, or indulge in sexual activity, although frequently approached by attractive women.  Since Pratt's novels are written in the first person from Legend's point of view, many readers fail to realize that Legend is a fictitious character.
 * Janos Bartok, played by John de Lancie, was born in Hungary in 1840. He speaks five languages and is a prodigy in mathematics and electrical engineering. Bartok is fascinated with all aspects of life, from the discovery of new scientific advancements to spiritualism and extra-sensory perception and especially with the idea that man will one day fly. After winning a scholarship to the University of Budapest, Bartok came to New York to work at Western Union where he met the young Thomas Edison. A bitter competition developed between these two brilliant scientists. Eventually, Edison destroyed Bartok's reputation by claiming that Bartok had stolen his ideas. Tiring of the scandal and the resulting media attention, Bartok left New York and headed West, settling in Colorado to continue his experiments. His financial backing comes from a wealthy widow in Denver with scientific interests and perhaps other interests in Bartok. In his leisure time he reads the humorous novels of Mark Twain and a series of dime novels which chronicle the adventures of Nicodemus Legend. Janos Bartok was inspired by Serbian scientist Nikola Tesla.

Recurring

 * Huitzilopochtli Ramos, played by Mark Adair Rios, is Mexican, a descendant of Aztec kings who has inherited the great Aztec genius for mathematics. His first name, Huitzilopochtli, means "Hummingbird of the South" and was the name of the chief tribal God in the Aztec religion. Ramos' brilliance was recognized early in his life, and he eventually went to work for a Harvard archaeologist on a dig in Mexico. The archaeologist was so impressed by Ramos' intellect that he helped the young man get a scholarship to Harvard. As a running joke, Ramos was described in several different episodes as having a degree in a wide variety of different specialties. The character was a sharp distinction from the cliche image of the mad scientist's assistant, as Ramos is fiercely intelligent in his own right. Ramos is fiercely devoted to Bartok, whom he met when they were both working for Western Union. Bartok in turn is unstinting in his praise for Ramos.
 * Skeeter, played by Jarrad Paul, is Legend’s version of the Artful Dodger who seems to come from nowhere and live nowhere, but who’s always around and into things.
 * Harry Parver, played by Bob Balaban, is the representative of Pratt's publisher. He is an Easterner who is fascinated by the West but quite out of place in it. Parver is a businessman surrounded by geniuses, dreamers and lunatics. It is his job to be concerned with deadlines, re-writes and promotional stunts to keep the Legend books at the top of the best-seller lists.

Development
Legend was originally conceived as a TV movie before it was picked up as a series.

Filming
It was shot on location in Mescal and Tucson, Arizona, from January to June 1995.

Broadcast history
The series was a Gekko Film Corp production in association with Bill & Mike Productions for Paramount Network Television, broadcast on UPN.

Twelve episodes were aired, including the 2-hour pilot episode. Despite critical praise, this program aired during UPN's first year of existence and after a change in network management, along with lower than expected ratings, the show was canceled along with almost every other program aired on the UPN lineup. TV Land aired reruns of all episodes around 1999.

DVD
On January 5, 2016, Mill Creek Entertainment released Legend – The Complete Series on DVD in Region 1 for the very first time. However, over ten hours of runtime is spread on just two discs, which means a sub-standard bitrate.

Novels
While no actual Legend novels were produced, several titles were referenced in the series, in keeping with the plot device of using gimmicks from Pratt's novels.

Reception
Jeff Jarvis of TV Guide appreciated the show's attempt to follow up The Adventures of Brisco County, Jr., as another Western with wry humor, but he ultimately didn't recommend it. Jarvis said that while the show is "cute" and that Anderson and de Lancie "click together", he called the show "dull" when it should be "exciting". David Bianculli of the Daily News received Legend more positively. He liked the two starring actors, and said the Western science-fiction format of the show "provides far more fun, and sly intelligence, than viewers might initially suspect." Writing in the New York Post, John Podhoretz called Legend "a gorgeous amalgam of science fiction and old-fashioned Western," noting it was "eerily similar" to The Adventures of Brisco County, Jr. He said the pilot episode was "an engaging piece of work" which was "photographed with stunning care and taste."

WRAS (FM)

WRAS (88.5 MHz) is a non-commercial FM radio station in Atlanta, Georgia, licensed to Georgia State University. Its schedule is split between college radio format (Album 88) airing from 7 p.m. to 5 a.m. and public radio programming from Georgia Public Broadcasting (88.5 GPB Atlanta) airing from 5 a.m. to 7 p.m. daily. Student programming is funded by GSU's Student Activity Fee, while station maintenance is partially funded by GPB. The Album 88 and 88.5 GPB Atlanta formats are both programmed for 24 hours a day, with each available on separate internet streams, and Album 88 is also available full-time on WRAS's HD2 subchannel.

The transmitter is located off Interstate 20 on Old Flat Shoals Road Southeast in Atlanta. The Album 88 student studios and offices are located on the campus of Georgia State University in downtown Atlanta, while the GPB studios are located in its headquarters off 14th Street in Midtown Atlanta.

Students at Georgia State host and produce all of the programs on Album 88, with the exception of Georgia State Panthers sporting events. While GPB public radio is heard around the clock on several simulcast radio stations in Georgia, listeners in the Atlanta area only hear the daytime schedule on WRAS. GPB is one of two Atlanta-based National Public Radio affiliates; the other is the full-time WABE, with its own news department and programming. Both stations carry overlapping NPR programming, such as All Things Considered, Fresh Air, and Morning Edition.

Album 88
In addition to a student management team, Album 88 has over 50 student volunteers who host many of the programs. Among the specialty shows on Album 88 have been: Melodically Challenged (poetry and alternative music, nationally syndicated ), The Georgia Music Show (dedicated exclusively to artists from Georgia), I Don't Care (punk), Soul Kitchen (funk, soul, disco and related), Crossroads (blues), Jet Lag (international psychedelia), New Theory (chillwave), Beatscape Lounge (ambient, electronica and nu jazz), Subterranean (drum and bass), Cowtipper's Delight (classic country and alternative country), Dot Dash (post-punk), Mighty Aphrodite (female vocalists), Metal Militia (heavy-metal music), Tower of Song (psyche, prog, freakbeat), a large variety of hip hop including the long-running shows Tha Message, Rhythm and Vibes (Atlanta's longest-running hip hop show) and Hush Hush (instrumental hip hop), One Step Beyond (ska, bluebeat & rocksteady), Glitter Frequency (indie pop, dream pop, shoegaze) and many more.

The staff of the radio station has also organized the annual music show called WRASFest, usually spotlighting local and underground talent.

GPB
On May 6, 2014, Georgia State University announced that WRAS would turn over its daytime hours to a new Atlanta-only service from the radio division of Georgia Public Broadcasting (branded "GPB Atlanta"), with news/talk programming between the hours of 5 a.m. to 7 p.m., leaving the remaining ten hours of the day for student airtime. Daytime programs would continue on Album 88, but accessible only via a new digital subchannel and streaming live on the station's website.

GPB paid $150,000 to GSU for the rights to broadcast on WRAS, in addition to a commitment to have GSU communications-major students obtain internships with GPB. GSU was also promised a weekly "Georgia music" program on the GPB state network. The contract was drawn for a two-year period, but it automatically renews, and contains a clause that could theoretically allow for the sharing or transfer of the license to GPB in the future. The student government (SGA) had allocated over $300,000 for the transmitter before finding out that most of its usage would be for GPB instead of for GSU students.

History
On January 18, 1971, WRAS first began broadcasting, originally with an effective radiated power of 19,500 watts.

The callsign WRAS was not first on the list of preferred callsigns for the station. The callsign WGSU and a few others were already taken, so WRAS was accepted, standing for "Radio At State." The first image lines for WRAS were "The Stereo Alternative" and the "Stereo Odyssey," although most listeners simply referred to the station as "rass." In 1982 the student general manager at the time changed the image line to "Album 88" and lessened the use of the callsign after seeing Arbitron radio ratings diaries in which listeners regularly confused FM stations WRAS, WRFG and WREK, which were all nearby each other on the radio dial. Album 88 refers to the album-based rotation the format employs: stressing several cuts from each album rather than a single.

Album 88's first general manager was Richard Belcher, well known in later years to Atlanta television viewers for his investigative reporting, first on WAGA-TV and later WSB-TV. Alumni of the station span the range of media, from executive positions at the major recording labels and cable networks to air talent at radio and TV stations across the country.

Album 88 has won numerous awards, frequently beating out commercial radio stations, from the former Atlanta weekly Creative Loafing, the monthly Atlanta magazine, and the former College Music Journal. And for a student station with no budget for promotion, the station was also unusually successful, according to the Birch, Arbitron and, more recently, Nielsen ratings. While most student stations in the pre-internet era self-consciously eschewed popularity, WRAS sought to play a wide variety of music while gaining the largest audience possible. The station's impact on record sales in Atlanta led to the inclusion of Album 88 as a reporting station to Billboard magazine for a time in the 1980s. With the increasing number of stations on the FM dial in Atlanta since the 1990s, some commercial stations have increasingly targeted segments of the traditional WRAS audience. Keeping true to its roots, Album 88 today airs a wider variety of music to reflect the much wider range of music genres and sub-genres which have developed in the post-internet era.

Album 88 has played a crucial role in "breaking" a wide range of artists including R.E.M., Deerhunter and Outkast. Several platinum and gold records hang in Album 88's studios and offices. According to Bob Geldof, he penned the Boomtown Rats hit song, "I Don't Like Mondays" in the Album 88 office after reading a telex report of the schoolyard shooting on which the song is based.

On March 14, 2008, an F-2 tornado struck Atlanta's downtown core and led to the evacuation of students and employees from parts of the Georgia State campus. Album 88 was forced to suspend broadcasting for nearly two days. (See 2008 Atlanta tornado)

GPB transfer
Despite being in the works for years, the signal transfer arrangement with GPB was kept secret until the day after final exams ended, as students were leaving campus for the summer or preparing for graduation, and the station's management was making its annual change. GSU and GPB officials claimed that the deal had only been finalized the day before. This made Album 88 staff and GSU students upset at the manner in which it was handled, with some claiming that the transaction may have been illegal. Student anger manifested itself at a protest during GSU's spring commencement ceremony, and a social media campaign with the tag #savewras, A petition on change.org drew over 10,000 signatories.

Claims were made that the new daytime programming had the benefit of bringing more NPR news and talk programming to radio listeners in Atlanta. Until the fall of 2015, Atlanta's main NPR affiliate, WABE, had long aired classical music during the day between the morning and afternoon "drive time" periods. A number of NPR programs popular elsewhere in the U.S. were not heard in the Atlanta market until WABE launched an all-news stream on its third HD subcarrier; still others were heard on Clark Atlanta University's WCLK, an otherwise jazz-formatted station with a weaker signal than WABE. But with WABE's move to replace daytime music with informational programs (made in response to the new WRAS programming as perceived competition), much of GPB's shows on WRAS began, inadvertently or not, duplicating programming already airing on WABE.

This is the second time that GPB has made use of a student station from a state university. In 2004, WUWG in Carrollton was acquired from the University of West Georgia, its entire broadcast license transferred from UWG to GPB. During the 2000s, the Radio Communications Board of Georgia Tech declined similar overtures made by GPB to its long-running WREK.

Album 88 supporters also raised concerns about the appearance of a conflict of interest by Douglass Covey, Vice President for Student Affairs at GSU. Until April 2014, he served on the board of Public Broadcasting Atlanta, the arm of the Atlanta Public Schools that operates WABE and WABE-TV, during the same time GSU was negotiating the deal to bring GPB into competition for listener donations and corporate underwritings that would otherwise go to support WABE.

Reactions
As one of the most influential college radio stations in the nation, support for keeping the Album 88 format on WRAS full-time, with no outside programming, came in from across the country. Efforts to save full-time programming on Album 88 were organized. Some called for a boycott of Georgia Public Broadcasting and its underwriters. In late June, 55 stations in 25 states broadcast a live program in support of Album 88. These efforts, however, were unsuccessful in persuading either GSU or GPB to annul the arrangement.

Album 88 alumni proposed the use of a low-power FM translator for GPB programming in the Atlanta area. Another solution would have been the purchase of a different, presumably commercial, FM station in the Atlanta radio market. But those ideas were rejected. Ultimately, the plan was allowed to go forward, and student programming was relegated to off-time hours on the analog waves.

Carleton County, Ontario

Carleton County is the name of a former county in Ontario, Canada. In 1969, it was superseded by the Regional Municipality of Ottawa–Carleton. In 2001, the Regional Municipality and its eleven local municipalities (including Ottawa) were replaced by the current city of Ottawa.

History
Upon the creation of the Johnston District in 1800, Carleton County, named after Guy Carleton, 1st Baron Dorchester, was created from portions of Dundas and Grenville counties, comprising the following territory:

"... the township of Nepean, with the tract of land to be hereafter laid out into townships, between Nepean and a line drawn north fifteen degrees from the north-west angle of the township of Crosby, until it intersects the Ottawa River, with such of the islands in the said river as are wholly, or in greater part opposite thereto..."

In 1824, upon the creation of Bathurst District (with its judicial seat at Perth), Carleton was withdrawn from Johnstown District and divided into two counties, so that its constituent townships were distributed as follows:

In 1838, Carleton was withdrawn from Bathurst District to form Dalhousie District, its judicial seat at Bytown, with the following territorial adjustments:

 * 1) Pakenham township was transferred to the new Renfrew County
 * 2) North Gower and Marlborough townships were added from Johnstown District
 * 3) Gloucester and Osgoode townships were added from Ottawa District

Effective January 1, 1850, as a consequence of the passage of the Baldwin Act, Dalhousie District was abolished, and Carleton replaced it for municipal and judicial purposes. It consisted of the following townships:

Chronology

 * Also in 1850, all of the townships of Carleton County were incorporated (see list above). Bytown was incorporated as a town, and Richmond became a village.
 * In 1855 Bytown was renamed Ottawa and became a city.
 * In 1867 New Edinburgh was incorporated as a village and 20 years later was annexed by Ottawa.
 * In 1888 Ottawa East was incorporated as a village and would later be annexed by Ottawa.
 * In 1893 Hintonburg was incorporated as a village. It would be annexed 14 years later by Ottawa.
 * In 1898 Metcalfe was incorporated as a police village.
 * In 1903 Manotick was incorporated as a police village.
 * In 1905 Rideauville, Westboro and North Gower were incorporated as police villages. Rideauville was annexed by Ottawa two years later, and Westboro was annexed in 1949.
 * In 1908 Rockcliffe Park was incorporated as a police village, while Janeville was incorporated as a village. Janeville would be incorporated as a town in 1913 as the Town of Eastview, while Rockcliffe Park became a full village in 1925.
 * In 1910 Kenmore and Osgoode Station were incorporated as police villages.
 * In 1912 Ottawa West was incorporated as a police village and would be annexed by Ottawa in 1949.
 * In 1922 Overbrook and St. Joseph d'Orleans were incorporated as police villages. Overbrook was annexed by Ottawa in 1950.
 * In 1939 Hampton Park was incorporated as a police village. It would be annexed by Ottawa ten years later.
 * In 1955 City View was incorporated as a police village.
 * In 1956 Stittsville was incorporated as a police village. Five years later Stittsville became a full village.
 * In 1963 Eastview (now Vanier) became a city.
 * In June 1968, the County, together with Ottawa and the Township of Cumberland that was withdrawn from Russell County, became the Regional Municipality of Ottawa-Carleton.

Eddie Carmel

Eddie Carmel (born Oded Ha-Carmeili, עודד הכרמלי; March 16, 1936 – August 14, 1972) was an American entertainer, born in British Mandate Palestine (later the State of Israel) with gigantism and subsequent acromegaly resulting from a pituitary adenoma. He was popularly known as "The Jewish Giant", "The Happy Giant," and "The World's Biggest Cowboy."

Carmel was listed by the Guinness Book of World Records as tall, and billed at the heights of  and  tall, though he may have more realistically been around  tall. He was variously a mutual funds salesman, carnival sideshow act, film actor, rock and roll band singer, and stand-up comedian. He was made famous by photographer Diane Arbus' picture Jewish Giant, taken at home with his parents in the Bronx, N.Y. in 1970, a print of which sold at auction for $421,000 in 2007 ($0 in current dollar terms). At the time of his death at age 36, he had shrunk several inches, due to kyphoscoliosis.

Early life
Carmel was born Oded Ha-Carmeili in Jaffa, Mandatory Palestine, to Orthodox Jewish immigrants, weighing 16 pounds, and was Jewish. An only child, he was raised in the Bronx, New York, after his parents Isaac (Itzhak; an insurance salesman born in Poland) and Miriam (née Pines) Ha-Carmeili (born in the United States, and later a secretary at the Jewish Theological Seminary) relocated back to the United States when he was two years old so his mother could care for an ailing relative. His parents were 5 feet 6 inches tall, but his maternal grandfather in Poland was known as the tallest rabbi in the world, at 7 feet 5 inches (226 cm). He lived with his parents on Elgar Place in Co-op City in the Bronx.

At 10 years of age Carmel was 6 feet 1 inch tall. At 15 years of age he was 6 feet 6 inches tall, and was diagnosed with gigantism and acromegaly. When he graduated Taft High School in 1954 he was 7 feet tall. He studied at City College of New York for two years where he was elected vice president of his class, majoring in business and joining the Dramatic Club, and Baruch College.

Carmel was listed by the Guinness Book of World Records as 9 feet (274 cm) tall, and billed at the heights of 8 ft 9 in (268 cm) and 9 ft 0.625 inches (276 cm) tall, though he may have more realistically been around 7 ft 3 tall. He had a size 24 shoe. He was popularly known as "The Jewish Giant," "The Happy Giant," and "The World's Biggest Cowboy." "Eddie" was his nickname from his youth, and Carmel was a stage surname.

Career
In 1958, Carmel sold mutual funds at an office near Times Square in Manhattan, New York City.

Due to his condition, Carmel's primary work was in carnival sideshows, including appearances at Hubert's Dime Museum and Flea Circus on West 42nd Street in Times Square, Milt Levine's World of Mirth show, and in the 1960s in Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus (which billed him as being 9 feet and 5/8 of an inch tall, and 500 pounds). He also acted in a few films, such as the science fiction horror film The Brain That Wouldn't Die (1962) and 50,000 B.C. (Before Clothing) (1963).

He formed and played with a rock and roll band, Frankenstein and the Brain Surgeons. Carmel also recorded two novelty 45 records, "The Happy Giant" and "The Good Monster," and the single "The Happy Monster's Song".

For a time Carmel, with his best friend, Irwin Sherman, worked together as stand-up comedians in New York. He stopped working in 1969, as his physical condition and arthritis made movement difficult, and he required two canes when he walked, later a wheelchair, and ultimately he was unable to get out of bed.

Carmel was made famous by photographer Diane Arbus' picture Jewish Giant, taken at Home with His Parents in the Bronx, N.Y. in 1970, his back arched against the low ceiling of the apartment where he lived with his parents, when he was 34 years old, two years before his death. As the photo was taken, he joked: "Isn't it awful to have midget parents?" Arbus remarked on her photo, "You know how every mother has nightmares when she’s pregnant that her baby will be born a monster? … I think I got that in the mother’s face…" The photo inspired his cousin to make an audio documentary about him in 1999. A print of the photo was sold at auction for $421,000 ($0 in current dollar terms) in 2007. A print of the photo was sold at a Christie's auction for $583,500 ($0 in current dollar terms) in 2017.

Death
On August 14, 1972, Carmel died of glandular disease at age 36, in Montefiore Hospital in the Bronx, New York. At the time of his funeral, he had shrunk several inches, due to kyphoscoliosis (curvature of the spine, a mixture of scoliosis and kyphosis).
