Geoffrey Willans

Herbert Geoffrey Willans, RNVR, (4 February 1911 – 6 August 1958), an English writer and journalist, is best known as the creator of Nigel Molesworth, the "goriller of 3B" and "curse of St. Custard's", as in the four books with illustrations by Ronald Searle.

Willans was born in Smyrna (now İzmir) in Turkey, where his father was a superintendent of the Ottoman Aidan Railway.

He was educated at Blundells School in Tiverton, and became a schoolmaster there. He enjoyed sailing in small boats. During the Second World War he took part in the Greek campaign and the Battle of Crete in the Eastern Mediterranean, serving on the corvette HMS Peony (K40). He later joined the carrier HMS Formidable (67).

Molesworth first appeared in Punch in 1939, and later became the protagonist and narrator of four books: Down with Skool! (1953), How to be Topp (1954), Wizz for Atomms (1956) and, after Willans's death, Back in the Jug Agane (1959). All four were collected in The Compleet Molesworth. Comic misspellings, erratic capitalisation and schoolboy slang are threads running through all the books.

According to Ronald Searle in his obituary of Willans in The Times: "His cunning was more refined than Bunter ... Willans was delighted that schoolmasters, far from feeling publicly disrobed, were in fact giving away his books as end of school prizes."

Willans wrote other books. A review in The Times described his novel The Whistling Arrow (1957) as having a futuristic aeroplane as the 'heroine'; "It is his apparent strength in writing about planes and the people that flew them." The reviewer compared it with one of Evelyn Waugh's earlier novels. The idea of a 'whistling arrow' was popularised by the Walt Disney Studio film The Story of Robin Hood and His Merrie Men (1952), starring Richard Todd, where arrows that whistled were used as signals between Robin Hood and his outlaw band.

Willans also co-wrote the screenplay for the film The Bridal Path (1959), which starred George Cole, but he died of a heart attack in London at the age of 47 before the film was released. He also wrote a number of other, mostly humorous, books, including The Dog's Ear Book (also with Searle), My Uncle Harry (an exploration of the British gentlemen's club), Fasten Your Lapstraps! (an account of the early days of intercontinental flight) and Admiral on Horseback (a more serious one about the Royal Navy).

Talk:List of the most common U.S. county names

Do we really want to list ALL the counties that share a name? I think it makes more sense just to do numbers to start with. And won't, say, Mercer County be named after Hugh Mercer in 90 percent of the cases, or Cherokee County be named after the Cherokee people in 90 percent of the cases? We can make notes in the odd cases... I just think listing ALL of the counties makes for an extremely long and unwieldly list--at least on the first pass. jengod 23:13, Dec 9, 2004 (UTC)

Rotary combination lock

A rotary combination lock is a lock commonly used to secure safes and as an unkeyed padlock mechanism. This type of locking mechanism consists of a single dial which must be rotated left and right in a certain combination in order to open the lock.

Design and operation
An externally-accessible dial is manipulated to release the shackle of a padlock or a lock bolt securing a door. The dial is connected to an internal mechanism, usually containing three separate wheels with notches, called gates. Each wheel must be aligned to allow a fence to drop into the gates, releasing the lever that holds the lock in place, allowing the lock to open. Generally, this is accomplished by moving the dial to three (or more) positions, usually denoted by numbers, in a specific sequence of alternating clockwise and anti-clockwise turns.

The wheels are generally arranged in a stacked wheel pack sharing a single axis of rotation, and the individual rotary position of each wheel can be manipulated by turning the dial left and right. The dial is mechanically connected via its spindle to a cam that is equipped with a drive pin — a sort of nub — that can engage a corresponding small catch (known as a fly) on the side of the closest wheel facing the cam; the fly either can be fixed or move within a limited range. On the opposite face of that closest first wheel is another drive pin, which can engage a fly on the side of the second wheel (next-closest to the cam) that is facing the first wheel. Similarly, the second wheel has another drive pin on its opposite face that can engage a fly on the third wheel. Many combination locks have three wheels, but the lock may be equipped with additional wheels, each with a drive pin and fly, in a similar manner. The number of wheels in the mechanism determines the number of specific dial positions that must be entered to open the lock, so a three-sequence combination is required for a three-wheel lock.

As the dial rotates, there will not be enough space for the drive pin on the cam to pass the fly on that face of the first wheel closest to the cam, and so the first wheel will begin to rotate with the dial once the drive pin on the cam engages the fly of the first wheel. The first wheel (closest to the cam) is said to be picked up when this occurs. As this first wheel rotates, its drive pin will in turn engage the fly on the second wheel and the second wheel will begin rotating with the dial and the closest wheel in a similar fashion. Once all wheels are "picked up" and rotating together with the dial, the dial is rotated until the first position/number of the combination is indicated, which means the wheel furthest from the cam is in place and its gate is aligned under the fence. The number of wheels also determines the number of rotations past the first position required to reset the lock; since picking up all the wheels requires a number of rotations equal to the number of wheels, the final wheel (furthest from the cam) cannot be not picked up and positioned until the minimum number of rotations is completed.

After the furthest wheel is positioned, by reversing the rotation of the dial, all the drive pins and flys disengage; as the dial continues to rotate in the opposite direction, the cam will again "pick up" the wheels in sequence (starting from the first wheel, closest to the cam) until all the wheels (save the wheel furthest from the cam) rotate together. In this way, the remaining wheels are rotated without disturbing the alignment of the furthest wheel. Once the second position/number is indicated, the next-to-furthest wheel is in place and its gate is properly aligned with the fence. The rotation of the dial is then reversed again until the remaining wheels are picked up and the gate of the next wheel is aligned with the fence. In this way, by turning the dial back and forth to the correct sequence of positions, all the wheels will be aligned with their gates positioned under the fence.

Once the gates are aligned on all the wheels, the fence drops into the gates, allowing the nose of the lever to engage with a corresponding gate in the cam. Further rotation of the dial moves the lever, retracting the locking mechanism and opening the lock.

Wheel sandwich construction
Wheels are typically made of a three-layer sandwich. The outer layers, known as the wheel case, contain the gate and surround the externally-toothed wheel center, change key cam, and lever arms. When a change key is inserted into the lock mechanism, it forces apart the lever arms, which then permits the wheel center to rotate freely. This in turn allows the owner to set a custom combination.

Additional security
Some rotary combination locks include internal relockers or relocking devices that separately lock the shackle or bolt when an attack is detected, including mechanical levers that respond to attempts to dislodge the locking mechanism ("punching"), thermal (fusible) links that melt in response to a cutting attempt, or tempered glass that breaks in response to a drilling attempt.

Wheels may be made of radiotransparent materials such as Nylon, Lexan, or Delrin to prevent the use of X-ray imaging to determine the wheel position and required combination.

Talk:Wet and messy fetishism

Mentioned on Graham Norton Show
Hi, The term Sploshing just had a slot on the Graham Norton Show, not sure where it would be appropriate to add it though. 84.67.18.50 21:33, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

 * Did it go into much detail? mattbuck 21:50, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

Unreferenced?
No, see external link added, and Yahoo! category. This is not original research. -- Karada 23:18, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)

The existence of mudwrestling does not require verification. The 'theories' listed, and the term wet and messy fetishism, do require verification. In fact, the theories are pretty much discussion. I suppose I could just move them to discussion.Lotusduck 23:08, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

okay, here it is:

Theories
One theory is that the feeling of wet and messy substances on the skin is a surrogate for the feeling of touching a partners' skin while having sex. Other theories are that getting wet and messy amplifies or exaggerates the feelings of lust. Yet another theory is that seeing another person or yourself getting wet and/or messy is arousing, because it reminds of the natural moistures the body excretes when sexually aroused.

Other elements of the fetish cross over with things such as the humiliation element inherent in BDSM, with costumed roleplaying of various fantasies, with an infantilism-like regression to an irresponsible state, or several other stimulai. Even within the WAM community itself, there are many conflicting theories and opinions on what makes the WAM fetish appealing.

Are we happy? Lotusduck 23:10, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

I think there are often medical reasons relating to easing the discomfort of dry skin. The wet or messy substance adheres to the skin and rehydrates it, soothing and providing relief from itching, and returning it to its normal, supple state. This may be especially applicable to sufferers of eczema, dermatitis, etc; but also to more minor, undiagnosed forms caused for instance by the drying effect of central heating. For a person who lives with such a condition 24/7, the instant relief may be all that is needed to trigger a sexually charged state. NB: afaik this is unresearched.

More generally, it is a type of body lubrication, heightening sensuality and enhancing sexual activity. This is particularly applicable to couples, eg. in mud wrestling. Bards 03:51, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

 * And your references for this are? -- The Anome 07:41, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Okay, so why is it considered arousing to see another person messy? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.2.178.3 (talk) 02:37, 11 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Do you know why you like seeing whatever it is turns you on? -mattbuck (Talk) 12:07, 11 January 2009 (UTC)

So very deserving of a deletion nomination
The only reference on this page is in support of a very weasel worded sentance: "it has been generally agreed that wet and messy fetishism is not about humiliation" or something like that. That gives us very little idea about what the book actually said. Right now I'm more interested in deleting what is un-attributable in this article and then merging it to one of several wikipedia articles on very nearly the same topic. Lotusduck 07:32, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

 * Katharine Gates' Deviant Desires contains a detailed description of this type of fetishism, and there are specialist magazines catering to this fetish, so I believe it certainly merits its own article under the normal notability criteria. However, much of this article appears to me to be unattributable original research, and I believe that it should be first trimmed down to remove the apparent OR, and then expanded with more information from multiple verifiable sources. -- The Anome 07:41, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Awesome. Should we put citation tags on and wait or just take stuff out? I just wanna take stuff out. Holy! You beat me to it. Good stuff. Lotusduck 07:49, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

 * I've now added a mergeto tag, as this appears to be in almost every aspect covered by saliromania: the exception being where the activity is carried out by a person on themselves in private, in which case it appears to be a form of lube play -- or possibly some kind of "autosaliromania", if such a term exists. Again, the Gates, Splosh and Fiesta references are all relevant, regardless of what you call it. -- The Anome 08:40, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

surely the point of the article is to accurately reflect the fetish, saliromania is very different to WAM, it is a form of S&M, see umd.net/forums/1/ to get a proper idea of WAM fetishism Urso 14:44, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

 * Forums are not to be how we define these terms. If you think WAM is so different from saliromania, it will have its' own heading under the saliromania article, but not be confused as meaning the exact same thing. Okay? Lotusduck 16:59, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Merger Discussion for Saliromania
see Talk:Saliromania for initial discussion of merger; it was decided to merge with wet and messy as opposed to vice-versa Urso 15:22, 14 March 2007 (UTC)

Disagree - Disshevelling the object of desire is not generally the domain of a WAM enthusiast. WAMmers generally take a delight in being messy themselves, not in humiliating their lover. mattbuck 00:53, 20 April 2007 (UTC)

comment I agree that all 3 articles should be kept separate. The members who started this discussion (originally merge to saliromania),Lotusduck and The Anome, seem to have abandoned it. I don't know the proper protocol for shutting down the discussion and leaving the 3 articles as they are. If anyone does, I would suggest go ahead and do it... Urso 15:48, 21 April 2007 (UTC)

Disagree - Disshevelling or dirtying does not always involve liquid, is not always WAM. Lauren h2003 14:04, 23 May 2007 (UTC)Lauren_H2003

Merger discussion for Mud Wrestling
Disapprove - Mud Wrestling is not necessarily sexual, and as such should not be merged into an article about a sexual fetish. mattbuck 01:09, 20 April 2007 (UTC)

I fully agree with the above comment. Mud Wrestling is entertainment where as Wet and Messy is a fetish. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.72.66.83 (talk • contribs) 09:44 Apr 21, 2007 (UTC)

Oppose merge for reasons stated above. 130.101.20.140 20:59, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

Oppose merge I 100% agree. Mud wresteling is not sexual in the same context as a fetish. Any sexual ties with mud wrestling are completely within normal sexuality. To merge mud wresteling with wet and messy fetishism (a sexual deviance for most people) would also suggest that "wet t-shirt contests" are also a form of fetishism. I doubt that those who do sexualize the activity would be interested more in the "messiness" than they would the contestents tightly-clad clothing. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.119.62.12 (talk) 20:09, 25 December 2007 (UTC)

Related Articles
Regarding slapstick: It took me a minute or two to figure out the correlation, maybe a mention in the article or next to the link would be helpful? Otherwise, why have it there? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.46.137.159 (talk) 01:55, 7 October 2007 (UTC)

Merger discussion for Food play
Strongly oppose merge. If one just reads the first line in the Food play article you can know why it shouldn't be merged with the Wet and messy Fetishism article: "Food play can have sexual or non-sexual connotations.". WAM is a sexual fetish. Food play isn't always. Furthermore WAM can involve non-food such as slime and mud so it can't be a section under food play.

If you take a look at the Attack of the Show clip linked in the article you will see numerous parts of videos related to the WAM fetish. Or else you can visit http://thewamstore.com or http://umd.net and see that the people into WAM are a huge community.

WAM isn't a fetish a few isolated people have. It has a large group of people associated with it. So the people on here calling for the article to be deleted or merged, turned into a sub-category, should please keep in mind the sheer amount of people into this fetish. It deserves it's own article.

It is debatable whether or not urophilia is "mainstream"
Ctrl + F "commonly found in mainstream pornography" When surveyed, small numbers of people say that they are aroused by the idea of urophilia (people have lied in surveys regarding sexuality in the past, though. eg: The percentage of women who watch porn), though in animated porn/normal porn, I'm geussing its more taboo than emetophilia and coprophilia.

Isabel Bassett

Isabel Bassett (born August 23, 1939) is a Canadian broadcaster and former politician. From 1999 until 2005 she was the chair and CEO of TVOntario/TFO, Ontario's provincial public television network. She has been a controversial figure at times, but is also a highly regarded pioneer in Canadian broadcasting.

Background
Bassett was born Isabel Glenthorne Macdonald in Halifax, Nova Scotia. She received a Bachelor of Arts from Queen's University and a Master of Arts from York University in 1973. As well, she graduated from teacher's college and taught English and French at Humberside Collegiate Institute.

Bassett first entered Canadian public life as a journalist for the Toronto Telegram in the 1960s. She later joined CTV, where she became a prominent reporter and documentary producer, including a stint with W5, after marrying Baton Broadcasting owner John Bassett on July 17, 1967. Although her documentary work for CTV won numerous awards, she was sometimes accused of having been given her position solely because she was married to the owner. John Bassett died in 1998, and Isabel subsequently began a relationship with cabinet colleague Ernie Eves. Bassett has also written a number of books on the political, social and historical achievements of Canadian women.

Politics
In the federal election of 1993, Bassett ran as a Progressive Conservative candidate in the Toronto riding of St. Paul's. She lost to Liberal Barry Campbell by over 15,000 votes.

Bassett was elected in the provincial election of 1995, defeating Liberal candidate Carolyn Bennett (later a federal Member of Parliament) by about 3,500 votes. She served as the Progressive Conservative Member of Provincial Parliament (MPP) for St. Andrew—St. Patrick for the next four years. On October 10, 1997, she was appointed Minister of Citizenship, Culture and Recreation in the government of Mike Harris. Despite the Harris government's right-wing reputation, Bassett is a Red Tory, and was one of the most socially progressive members of the Harris cabinet.

In the 1999 provincial election, Bassett was defeated in the new provincial riding of St. Paul's by Liberal candidate Michael Bryant. She was one of several Toronto Progressive Conservatives defeated in the city due to the unpopularity of Harris' government.

TV Ontario
After the election, Bassett was appointed as head of TVOntario by Mike Harris. Her mandate was to refocus the network on educational programming; however, Bassett successfully found ways to ensure that the network's most popular non-educational programs, such as Saturday Night at the Movies and Studio 2, could continue to air.

Bassett's position again became controversial when Eves became Premier of Ontario in 2002, with media critics noting the potential conflict of interest inherent in Bassett remaining as head of TVOntario while simultaneously in a common law relationship with the provincial premier. However, Bassett was popular within TVOntario, and the controversy soon subsided. She remained chair and CEO of TVOntario until September 29, 2005, when the Liberal government of Dalton McGuinty separated the two positions. Bassett's successors were film producer Peter O'Brian as chair, and former Astral Media executive Lisa de Wilde as CEO.

Honours
In 2016, she was made a member of the Order of Ontario.

On June 30, 2016, Bassett was made a Member of the Order of Canada for "her community engagement and commitment to the advancement of women and public service, notably in educational broadcasting."

Cel-Ray

Cel-Ray is a celery-flavored soft drink from Dr. Brown's.

History
Dr. Brown's sodas are kosher, are often sold in Jewish delicatessens and restaurants, and can also be found in specialty grocers and grocery stores that specialize in American food in Israel. The flavor, derived from celery seed extract, is reminiscent of ginger ale but with a pronounced celery flavor that is more pungent or peppery than ginger ale.

Dr. Brown's Celery Tonic was, according to the company, first produced in 1868 in Brooklyn, New York. It was served in New York delicatessens starting in 1869 and sold as a bottled soda starting in 1886. The Food and Drug Administration objected to its being called a "tonic", and in the 1900s the name was changed to Dr. Brown's Cel-Ray (soda). Cel-Ray was so popular in the 1930s among New York City's Jewish community that it earned the nickname "Jewish Champagne", Dr. Brown's briefly produced a diet Cel-Ray, but it was discontinued due to low sales. Other "celery tonics"/"celery sodas" were produced in the 1890s, but only Dr. Brown's celery product remains today.

In popular culture
Cel-Ray is mentioned in:
 * the 1954 children's novel Half Magic, by Edward Eager which is set in the 1920s. The children are intrigued by the "celery soda" available at their local soda shop.
 * the 1982 film Tootsie, not referred to as "Cel-Ray", rather "celery tonic" as the reason of what was spilled on the video tape and hence why a live performance of that day's show was required.
 * the Seinfeld season eight episode "The Pothole" Jerry said that he bruised his lip drinking a Cel-Ray by bringing it up too fast.
 * the book The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay as a favorite drink of Sammy Clay's father, the Molecule Man, or the World's Strongest Jew.
 * the character of Billy Rose (played by James Caan) in the 1975 film Funny Lady habitually drinks celery tonic, as an alternative to alcohol.
 * It is used as a plot point joining assistant Harriet Smith and senator James Elton in the web series Emma Approved, written and directed by the makers of "The Lizzie Bennet Diaries."
 * in the 2004 novel Wake Up, Sir! by Jonathan Ames, it is the favorite drink of the narrator, the fictional writer Alan Blair.
 * in the 2013 novel Bleeding Edge by Thomas Pynchon, it is referred to as "Jewish champagne" and served at "a possibly make-believe Jewish delicatessen, Bagels 'n' Blintzes".
 * in History of the World, Part II in Season 1 Episode 3, a vendor offers Stalin a celery soda.
 * In the 1958 novel "Around the World with Auntie Mame" by Patrick Dennis, It's a favorite of H. Jules Goldberg.

Bridgeton, Glasgow

Bridgeton (Brigtoun, Baile na Drochaid) is a district to the east of Glasgow city centre. Historically part of Lanarkshire, it is bounded by Glasgow Green to the west, Dalmarnock to the east and south, Calton to the north-west at Abercromby Street/London Road and Broad street to the north-east.

History
It started as a small weaving village in 1705, when the third John Walkinshaw marked out a portion of his Goosefauld estate for rent. However, not much interest was shown until 1776 when Rutherglen Bridge was built over the River Clyde and the area became known as Bridge Town (or Brig Toun in Scots). The area was incorporated into the city of Glasgow officially in 1846. A major employer was carpet manufacturer James Templeton & Co. Bridgeton used to be bounded by a village named Mile-End to the north, however this district seems to have vanished over the years, resulting in Bridgeton's boundary moving north to Crownpoint Road.

Bridgeton Cross
Bridgeton Cross, also known as 'The Toll' is a major junction, the meeting point of London Road (A74 towards Celtic Park), Dalmarnock Road (A749), Main Street, James Street (leading to Glasgow Green), Olympia Street and Orr Street.

The intersection is notable for the "Brigton Umbrella", a Victorian (1875) cast iron bandstand covering the centre of the Cross. The Category A listed landmark structure and surrounds was renovated in the early 21st century, resulting in improved public realm areas and the complete refurbishment of the Umbrella.

Bridgeton Cross is the location for Bridgeton railway station (opened in 1895, closed in 1964, reopened in 1979) which is on the Argyle Line connecting the area to central Glasgow. The Category B listed building which previously housed Bridgeton Central railway station (1892-1979) is a short distance away. A number of local buses also pass along London Road and Dalmarnock Road.

The Cross is also the location for the Olympia Theatre (built 1911), which after lying abandoned for many years has undergone rebuilding and reopened in 2012 as a library and community facility for the people of Bridgeton. There are several public houses in the vicinity, with most themed around Rangers F.C.

In 1893 William Millard started Millers Linoleum Stores, renting sheds in Charles Street (now Olympia Street) from the North British Railway Company. On 26 June 1913 planning permission was granted to build a two-storey warehouse on this land, which had now been purchased by Millard. Under the directorship of William's great-grandson David Millard, the building was sympathetically renovated in 2013. Believed to be the only surviving family business from the 1800s in the area, Millers 1893 continues to operate.

Points of interest
Bridgeton has one of Glasgow's original Carnegie libraries, designed by the Invernesian architect, James Robert Rhind. Since 2014, the library has been in use by the Glasgow Women's Library, holding a lending library, archive and museum collection, who have made significant renovations both inside and out.

After the 2014 Commonwealth Games was held in Glasgow, Bridgeton now has international-class sporting facilities within walking distance: the Commonwealth Arena and Sir Chris Hoy Velodrome are located in nearby Dalmarnock, with the Crownpoint Sports Complex, a modern outdoor athletics track, also located in the area adjacent to St Mungo's Academy.

Bridgeton has been the centre of the Orange Order in Scotland. Their marches are a fairly common sight in Glasgow during the summer months but reach a peak around the Twelfth of July when the parades commemorating the Battle of the Boyne are in full flow. In 2019, the Sunday Times reported that concerns over an incident during the 2018 Apprentice Boys of Derry (Bridgeton) march had led to suggestions that Glasgow council reroute the march to avoid passing near two Catholic churches.

The Glasgow Vintage Vehicle Trust, one of the largest voluntary commercial and passenger vehicle preservation groups in Scotland are based at Bridgeton Bus Garage which opened on 5 June 1965 on a site bordered by London Road to the south, Fordneuk Street to the West, Broad Street to the north and Rimsdale Street to the east. It replaced the former tram depot at Dalmarnock which had suffered fire damage. In 1870 a grocer name of John Wilson of 13 Main Street and a few friends from the local bowling club founded Bridgeton Burns Club, a charity which continues to this day, assisting local children.

Bridgeton's use as a Glasgow Bus Garage was brief, the tendency was to use a smaller fleet of larger buses and that led to the garage being closed in 1976, however it was then taken on by Strathclyde Regional Council for its Internal Transport fleet, servicing everything from light vans to Gritting Lorries. In this capacity it later passed to Glasgow City Council who when they ceased using it for that purpose were prevailed upon to rent it out for vehicle preservation.

Football
For four decades in the mid-20th century, Bridgeton was represented in the Scottish Junior Football Association by Bridgeton Waverley F.C. Initially a local Juvenile team, upon joining the Junior setup they played at Shawfield Stadium (home of Clyde F.C.), then moved to Barrowfield Park which was bought and demolished by Glasgow Corporation for the construction of the housing scheme of the same name in the 1930s. Waverley then moved to New Barrowfield on the edge of the Parkhead district. After they folded in the 1960s, that site became the training ground of Celtic F.C.

Another Junior club which became defunct around the same time, Strathclyde F.C., was also based in the area. Strathclyde's predecessor senior league club Thistle F.C. had their roots in Bridgeton/Dalmarnock, as did the aforementioned Clyde and the 19th century side Eastern F.C. who both once played at another Barrowfield Park.

Although Celtic's stadium is nearby the district is now known for a large and passionate Rangers following.

Talk:Catherine Deneuve

Playboy
The article is categorised under playboy models but nothing is mentioned abt her modeling for playboy. Is the cat an error? --Gurubrahma 05:37, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Don't think it is -- Samir   धर्म 05:44, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

It is not an error, she appeared nude in a Playboy pictorial. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Smartissexy (talk • contribs) 01:47, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

NPOV
I removed this statement about her role in Hunger:

", and her performance won her an indelible cult status in the States among lesbians, goths, and artistically inclined teenage boys. "

While there may indeed be some truth behind this, it needs to be rephrased and preferrably sourced if it's to be included. Even if she really did gain status in the gay community due to this role, I really doubt anyone can cite sources for inspiring "artistically inclined teenage[d] boys."

Rudd-O This article REALLY NEEDS to be NPOVized. The second paragraph is a mess of glorifications. Sure, Deneuve is a great artist in the eyes of many people. But blatant praise like that does not belong on Wikipedia.

Unfortunately for you Rudd-O, the bio located on Wikipedia is the same bio for her everywhere else. You call it blatant praise, yet it is fact. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.227.236.102 (talk) 23:13, 8 September 2007 (UTC)

 * 71.227.236.102 -STOP the POV edits. STOP the sock puppetry (aka Smartissexy). STOP the vandalistic reverts. You have been reported62.64.201.37 23:33, 8 September 2007 (UTC)

The only vandal on this page is you (62.64.201.37). The biography I keep fixing on this page is not a POV edit, it is the ACCEPTED and SAME biography for Deneuve on nearly every other internet source. The biography you continually replace it with is poorly written, has countless misspellings, and has multiple French titles capitalized which are not supposed to be capitalized. You have continually removed sources that I have cited at the bottom of this page. I personally submitted the complete filmography which you have messed around with, and it now contains films that Deneuve is not working on. I personally submitted the Awards section, which you have also messed around with. Then there is the life section that you keep touching, adding POV references to every relationship the woman has had (without citing a single source I might add), and on top of that you don't even have the decency to clean it up, it is one big run on sentence like the rest of your edits. Then of course there is that huge cluster at the bottom of the page which is a trivia/other information section, once again no sources cited. Take your own advice, STOP touching the article. Smartissexy 07:10, 09 September 2007 (UTC)

Possible error?
Either the Britannica or Wikipedia article is wrong about her birth year. Britannica says she was born in 1942, at the time of writing this article says 1943. Delta Tango • Talk 09:10, 21 December 2006 (UTC)

Sockpuppetry and edits
Smartissexy, thank you for confirming that you are the sockpuppet of 71.227.236.102. (Your attempted reverts of your talk page, at one moment smartissexy the next 71.227.236.102, show that too!) Regarding edits: you must edit in good faith. By all means make constructive edits. Correct grammar, correct filmographies, etc. But you always want to add POV and remove genuine information and format against the style book just because you want it so! So go slowly. Do one thing at a time. Edit grammar THEN filmography and so on. Just trying to bulldoze your POV is against the spirit of wikipedia. 62.64.211.141 09:01, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

Forgetting to sign in has zero to do with being a sockpuppet. The only thing you add to the page is poor grammar, inaccuracies, and misspellings. Genuine information includes sources, of which you are clearly too lazy to include. Cutting and pasting from all over the internet does not make the information accurate. Don't bring up bulldozing, when you add some new edit every 15 minutes with a cut and paste hack job to wherever you think it should fit onto the page. I have sources for my supposed POV edits, you haven't included a single source for the garbage you keep tossing all over this page. Take your own advice, learn to be constructive. Every time you vandalize this page, I will be cleaning up your slop. Smartissexy 10:02, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

 * I have told you, you are perfectly welcome to make improvements. Just don't try to slip in the usual POV rubbish you have been warned about by numerous people for months. You are becoming very overheated. So cool down. The article is not PR. I am being perfectly reasonable, please be the same. REASONABLE. (Sockpuppetry: we just know you are prepared to act dishonestly to try to get your way). 62.64.210.186 13:51, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

 * I think you should both stop arguing like children. 88888 14:05, 11 September 2007 (UTC) Having read both versions, I now think that smartissexy has a case (sorry). I have reverted to back his/her version. Why not go from there? 88888 14:32, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

 * My version is superior, it incorporated a great deal of what 62.64.210.186 attempted to add in a very sloppy way. 62.64.210.186 if you touch the article again you will be reported for the 3RR. Smartissexy 17:13, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

I have made a link for the separate filmography. There is no point in repeating it. I think the editing can continue very well from here. I have fixed many links and added sources. Please make piecemeal changes like these so that it is possible to see what is added and removed.62.64.211.213 16:05, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

 * This is a joke, you added TWO SOURCES, you fixed nothing. Your version is poor, riddled with grammatical and spelling errors, and it is the same cut and paste hack job from NON-SOURCED sites. You don't need to repeat anything, it is clear my version is preferred as I am not the only one saying this. Like I said, take your own advice, if you vandalize this article again you will be reported for the 3RR. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Smartissexy (talk • contribs) 17:18, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

 * I have reverted back to Smart's version for a number of reasons including it is a far better building block than 62.64.211.213. In doing so I fortunately also removed the blatant copyright violations incurred by 62.64.211.213 which were lifted verbatim and uncited from the IMDB trivia section of Deneuve's biography there. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Alfwine (talk • contribs) 17:45, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

Sexuality
Is it true she is bisexual? It says so here. MerriFunn 13:59, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

 * She is not bisexual, and she has said that she is not countless times. Smartissexy 17:14, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

Filmography
I have linked to the already existing self-standing filmography. 62.64.211.213 16:08, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

I was going to add the template to the filmography section, but the article is protected. Either way, the filmography is in the incorrect order; according to the Manual of Style for lists of works, filmographies should be from oldest to newest. Could someone correct this once the article is unprotected, or at least add the template so someone else can do so? Thank you very much. María ( críticame ) 12:41, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Right on. :) María ( críticame ) 17:14, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

Missing film?
I looked in the filmography for a film I saw in France in 1966 whose title (unfortunately) I can't recall, but it doesn't seem to be there...

Deneuve plays a girl who gets involved in a robbery although she has a young son. The gang gets caught, and she spends the next couple of decades in prison. When she gets out, she looks up her son to see what has become of him — but he falls in love with her, not knowing she's his mother.

I'm certain it was Deneuve, although not absolutely certain of the date. is this film really missing, or is my memory playing me up?

Paul Magnussen (talk) 00:14, 31 December 2007 (UTC)

 * That was Si c'était à refaire (1976). She asks her lawyer to make her pregnant. He refuses, but she succeeds in getting pregnant to make her prison term more bearable. It's in the filmography all right. --El Ingles (talk) 18:45, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

 * Thanks a lot. I'd forgotten about being in Belgium in 1976 — that must have been when I saw it. Paul Magnussen (talk) 18:41, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

Luke4545 - touch the page again today and you will be reported for 3RR. You do not own the page, and your constant reversions aren't helping the matter. Also, nice job on deleting your own user discussion page. I see you have a long history of edit warring and continually causing disruptions. Smartissexy (talk) 23:18, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

 * Your constant threats are not constructive at all. Not to mention that you could just as easily be reported for 3RR as well if you continue your own pattern.  Also, you don't own the page either; so, stop acting as if I'm the guilty party here when you have made many revisions with not only your user page, but your IP as well (67.11.187.178).

 * Furthermore, I didn't intend to delete anything on my discussion page, as I was still rather new to how discussions worked, and thus, I was testing several things out. I made this clear with that user.  You seem to have a history of edit warring as well, according to the archives section on your discussion page.  Once again, another example of the pot calling the kettle black.

 * Anyway, this constant bickering isn't helping at all; so, instead of going after me, list the problems you have with the page. -- Luke4545 (talk) 23:26, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

 * The film template is not needed, nor is it required. It looks terrible and it was fine the way it was.  Multiple spelling errors which I have fixed numerous times, and the constant changing of the opening paragraph.  Like it or not, the one in my version is the accepted biography for almost every single Deneuve bio on the internet and elsewhere.  Forgetting to log in when editing happens, so don't act like you are pointing out anything shocking.  You have now reverted twice today, if you touch it again you will be reported for 3RR.  It's a promise. Smartissexy (talk) 23:40, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

 * Luke4545 you have now been reported for 3RR. The original template is the one that you changed.  I suggest you follow the Wikipedia guidelines. Smartissexy (talk) 23:42, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

 * Many of the websites that use the biography are Wikipedia spin-offs, as they use content from the original Wikipedia article. Those are not credible websites; this has been discussed many times in Wikipedia.  Also, as someone else pointed out in another comment in the revision history, sourced POV is still POV.  Read the entire neutral point of view article, and you'll see.  Also, your revisions were littered with formatting mistakes, especially with the titles, as there were many unnecessary capitalizations.  Read the Wikipedia manual of style article, and you'll see what I'm talking about.

 * As far as a film table, many actors/actresses pages use a film table, partly for aesthetic purposes. There is no need to remove it.  If you want, we can just simply use the table in a separate Catherine Deneuve filmography article, considering that many actors/actresses with extensive filmographies have a separate filmography article.  -- Luke4545 (talk) 23:52, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

 * Those aren't my revisions, they have been done over time with countless people modifying tags and various other things. The table is fine in the Deneuve Filmography article, but it doesn't belong in this one. Either way, the first paragraph needs to be fixed as when the "POV" is removed, it still doesn't mesh well. Smartissexy (talk) 00:00, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

 * How about this then....I'll let you do what you want with the opening paragraph (although, if there are any formatting issues, I'll have to edit them), while I'll add the filmography table to the Catherine Deneuve filmography article, and then have it linked to this page. If there's anything else you would like to bring up, let me know.  I hope we won't have to engage in any more fighting after this.  -- Luke4545 (talk) 00:08, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

 * Fixed my part, and I see you fixed yours. I still think you should keep the integrity of the film table intact by adding the directors to it. Regardless of American POV, directors are iconic in French cinema, and I think it has relevance. Smartissexy (talk) 00:27, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

 * I agree that directors are extremely important (in fact, I personally value directors more), but the standards that have seemingly been set regarding listing filmographies on the English Wikipedia site don't usually have the directors' names alongside films in which the article is about the actor/actress. If you want to create an entire director section in the table for each film, then go for it.  However, someone may remove it later, given the reason above.  -- Luke4545 (talk) 00:35, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

 * I think it's funny we agree on the director issue. It is stupid that a film template would not be a standard but that what goes into it would be? Makes no sense. The only reason people remove directors is because they do not comprehend the importance of a director in foreign cinema. I am going to play World of Warcraft, nice edit warring with you LOL. Smartissexy (talk) 00:41, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

 * Haha, alright, take care. -- Luke4545 (talk) 00:44, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

16May8 edits
Im putting all her personal info together. If u say it shouldnt be atop, that 'career section' should b atop; then y does her career section begin with'' "Deneuve was born Catherine Fabienne Dorléac in Paris, one of four daughters to French stage..." '' ??? Hm? If u feel/c format errors, correct them. U dont do that, u just revert. All your edits r reverts. 70.108.119.24 (talk) 01:36, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

 * Almost all career overview sections begin in that manner. Please look over some of the major actor/actress pages, and you'll see what I'm talking about.  I already discussed on your talk page how biographical articles are usually organized.  I also said that you please engage in discussion BEFORE making any other full-scale edits, and yet, you continue to make those edits.  I will reiterate the point again, please fully discuss the matter before attempting any other full-scale edits.  -- Luke4545 (talk) 02:04, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

I too reiterate this again: correct the format errors u c. U dont. All u do is revert. If fact, that is all u do on wiki, revert, revert, revert. Y dont u actully edit a page? 70.108.119.24 (talk) 15:35, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

 * What are you talking about? I add content all the time and revert any unconstructive/ unnecessary edits.  That's what a lot of established users do.  I've even received praise and a barnstar for my contributions, especially for sports articles; so, your accusations that my edits are just based on reverts are completely false.  Not to mention that reverting unconstructive/unnecessary edits is an important part of cleaning up Wikipedia.  I received a barnstar for that as well.  Stop acting as if reverting unconstructive/unnecessary edits (no matter the amount of reversions) is somehow a negative. There are even bots on this site designed for reverting material; although, they're not always able to pick up on every instance of an unconstructive/unnecessary edit.  That's why it's imperative that other users are rigorous in their efforts to help clean up this site, which is one of the things I'm trying to do.

 * Furthermore, you're once again reverting material without any proper discussion first. I've already urged you to discuss matters BEFORE making any reversions, and yet, you continue to seemingly refuse to work towards any constructive resolution.  I will bring this up with an admin.  -- Luke4545 (talk) 20:12, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

Im talking about how majority of your edits r reverts. Its very easy 2 click the revert button. Tout your barnstars all u want, as Shania Says, That Don't Impress Me Much! Stop acting as if your numerous reversions isnt just so u can get a hi edit count. I feel your accusation is baseless & false as well. U feel my edit is unconstructive/unnecessary. When I initially (here). made my edit I said y It wasnt good enough 4 u. 70.108.119.24 (talk) 07:10, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

 * Are you kidding me? Why would I care about a high edit count?  Once again, you're throwing around accusations that are completely false and baseless.  You say it's so easy to "click the revert button," yet, that's exactly what you were doing in this article without fully discussing matters first.  Good ol' hypocrisy.  And you obviously missed the part where I was explaining why reverting unconstructive/unnecessary material is an essential part of Wikipedia.  It doesn't matter if a majority of a person's edits are reverts.  There are bots who are designed for reverting, and there are even USERS, sometimes ADMINISTRATORS, on this site who spend an enormous amount of time reverting unconstructive/unnecessary edits, and thus, their edits primarily consist of reversions.  So, are you going to tell me that they're just trying to achieve a high edit count as well?  Please stop with your condescending attitude.

 * Next, I already explained on your talk page why your edits were unconstructive/unnecessary. I'll discuss this once again, and hopefully, you'll finally understand.  As you know, I said your edits contained several formatting mistakes.  For example, you were improperly capitalizing headings and had some punctuation errors.  That's why I referred you to the Wikipedia manual of style article, and I hope you look over that carefully.

 * Also, it's completely unnecessary to rearrange the sections like you have. As I also said on your talk page, the Catherine Deneuve article is structured much like many actors/actress pages, or any other biographical article for that matter (especially those regarding entertainers and athletes), on the English Wikipedia site.  "Personal life" sections are almost always placed after a career overview section and after sections pertaining to accomplishments, or outside work, or both (as is the case in the Catherine Deneuve article).  Also, you don't need to add a section entitled "Biography."  The article itself is a biography.  The sections that are included in the article, or any biographical article, are sections OF a biography.

 * On another note, if anyone else happens to read this, I noticed a couple of users edited the article since the last reversion by 70.108.119.24 (talk), and now the "Career" heading is missing after the first paragraph. The version  as of this posting is almost like the version before this whole ordeal began; the exceptions being the first paragraph, along with the "Career" heading missing.  The removal of the "Career" heading may have been mistake, given that it was the user Smartissexy (talk) who made an edit that mirrored that previous version, but added a near-duplicate of the first paragraph.  The near-duplicate appeared to look much like the first paragraph that I edited when I was attempting to offer a compromise to this whole ordeal.  Anyway, if someone else wants to re-add that "Career" heading, then go ahead, but I won't edit the page until some sort of resolution between me and 70.108.119.24 (talk) is reached before the two-day discussion proposal issued by PeterSymonds  (talk)  (or following a request for comment case, if we can't come to an agreement).  Even if adding something like that may seem rather minor and not affect my standing, I want to be as constructive about this process as possible.  -- Luke4545 (talk) 18:20, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

Request for comment
and over full-scale edits that  did not discuss prior to making them. disputes that these edits contained various formatting mistakes. !! time= 23:28, 21 May 2008 (UTC) }}

Long-running dispute. 70.108 believes that her BAFTA-award should be included in the lead, but this is disputed by Luke4545. The reasons why can be found above. I open this now to gain the views of other editors. Thanks, PeterSymonds (talk)  23:28, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

 * Actually, I'm not disputing the inclusion of her BAFTA Award nomination. Please check my last response under the section 16May8 edits in this discussion page to see exactly what I'm disputing.  In fact, IP 70.108.119.24 (talk) wanted to include "César Award-winning actress" previously; so, I agreed to that inclusion in this edit, as part of a compromise that I attempted to lay out.  I actually don't mind the inclusion of the BAFTA Award nomination.  My dispute is over the full-scale edits (which had several formatting mistakes) that the IP didn't discuss prior to making them.  As I said, please read my last response in the 16May8 edits section, in this article's discussion page, to understand exactly what I'm disputing.  Thank you.  -- Luke4545 (talk) 23:37, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

OUTSIDE OPINION As I'm looking at the diffs, I'd be inclined to agree with the IP. Typically, bio sections come before career information (IMDB does it this way). The first sentence or two of the career section do need reformatted, as they're stating biographical details. I'll also point out that there isn't a policy or guideline requiring discussion before any major edit- in fact, that idea goes against a policy, WP:BOLD. I also wouldn't recommend reverting because they introduced formatting errors (I've actually seen edits reverted because there was a spelling error)- these can be fixed without reverting the entire edit. JeremyMcCracken (talk) (contribs) 04:27, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

 * I've seen many articles structured the exact opposite of what you just said. And I don't see how the way pages on IMDB are structured has any relevance to how pages on Wikipedia are structured.  Maybe there has been discussion about this on other articles - if so, please let me know.  Also, my main gripe with doing those full-scale edits is that they contained several formatting mistakes AND seemingly unnecessary rearrangement of sections.  So, the reversions weren't just based on formatting errors.  And as I stated before, other actor/actress career sections have often began with the same kind of information that was given in the initial career section of this particular article.  For example, please take a look at the Vivien Leigh page, which is a featured article.  Now, if there was one main difference, you could say that the Catherine Deneuve career section was simply titled "Career," while the similarly-structured section in the Vivien Leigh article was titled "Early life and acting career."  I don't see why naming the sections the same would matter either way, but as you'll see, the content and structure is relatively similar (i.e. place of birth and brief info about parents is mentioned in the beginning of the career sections in both articles).  If you, or any other editors out there, think the initial Catherine Deneuve career section should be titled "Early life and acting career" as well, then I don't have a problem going along with that.

 * By the way, under the IP's "Biography" section, not only was "Personal life" included as a sub-section, but "Entrepreneurial" was in there, too. Going by that arrangement, why would "Entrepreneurial" be a necessary sub-section as well, but not sections such as "Charities" and "Political involvement"?  What's the distinction? The arrangement just seems rather unnecessary.  -- Luke4545 (talk) 12:24, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

Question re Article Sources
I see a lot of discussion above about the quality of this article.

This includes the comments: "the bio located on Wikipedia is the same bio for her everywhere else."

AND "The biography ....is the ACCEPTED and SAME biography for Deneuve on nearly every other internet source."

These comments agree with my observation that there is a lot of overlap among various on-line biographies of Catherine Deneuve. For example, the bit about "made her reputation playing a series of beautiful ice maidens for..." is in our article AND it also appears in the first three references.

The question I want to ask -- Are these other articles extracts from the Wikipedia article, or is the Wikipedia articles plagiarized from another source?

I'm hoping someone who is familiar with this article's history can answer this.

Thank you, Wanderer57 (talk) 21:18, 25 June 2008 (UTC)

Missing Photos
What is the reasoning behind making all her photos, (or even many of her photos;) about her as an old, relatively has-been woman? Seems like every bio should include (even emphasize) photo(s) of the person at the time (age) they become notable or most active/over-achieving. (Example: Highly over-represented Old Man Albert Einstein pics are also a "cute and politically correct," but warped historical perversion! Photos tell (his)stories too.) --2602:306:CFCE:1EE0:282E:4AA5:9277:BB30 (talk) 09:32, 12 November 2017 (UTC)Doug Bashford

Re:Wikipedia email
You didn't give a valid email address, so this is my reply to your email:

Paul,

You twice recreated a vanity article on yourself, despite it being voted for deletion through the appropriate mechanism. We do not encourage authors to write about themselves -- if you are notable then at some point someone is going to write about you.

I warned you on your talk page not to recreate the article and you had previously removed a vfd tag. The ban was in part aimed at establishing dialogue. It was for only 24 hours, so should have finished now.

There are some options open to you.

First, if you wish to be a wikipedian and contribute to the 'pedia, you can create your own article at user:Espozzi and upload your photo, no problem. I will undelete the article and move it there if you wish. I encourage you to make contributions to articles, but you need to follow community consensus on what's in and what's out.

Secondly, you could go to Requests for undeletion and request that Paul Bouche be undeleted. If consensus is reached there that you are notable after all, then the article can be restored.

Otherwise, you could try uploading your photo and biography to the Internet Movie Database at http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1658728/ which is more geared towards the entertainment business.

There is also Everthing2 http://www.everything2.com/ which has an extremely inclusionist stance on things, but I don't know much about it other than that.

Thirdly, if you are unhappy about my behaviour you can go to requests for comment and complain.

Hope that helps, I honestly encourage you to contribute to the wiki, but as I said, please don't write about yourself, if you are notable then someone else will write about you.

I tried using a somwhat-MLA format for the quotation from the text. It is not entirely correct. It would also be nice to know when he stopped being director of the Philosophical Institute. --Culix 23:21, 9 Dec 2004 (UTC)

 * I would be pleased to help with the article on Radovan Richta. I have just made some minor changes to make it more accurate. I could probably help You with translation from Czech, but my english is not perfect. Richta became a director of a new Institute on December 22, 1969 and stayed in that position probably to 1982 (see and ). The reason for establishing the new institute was the "normalization" after Prague spring - Institute for Sociology has been canceled, its employees have been dismissed and the agenda was taken by the new institute over.

 * "Nataša Kálalová, Želmíra Kálalová, and Radovan Richta were arrested in October 1944 and held in the Pankrác prison. In 1945 (in January? [still to confirm]) they were transported to Terezín [Theresienstadt prison of Gestapo]."
 * "Radovan Richta was likely still in Terezín on May 2, 45; on that day, three senior [or older] leaders of Předvoj were executed (Hiršl and 2 others). Around May 4 the Red Cross visited and brought some prisoners out from the Terezín fortress. Our relatives believe the Red Cross probably took Radovan to Bulovka (a large hospital in Prague)"

Mount Agung

Mount Agung (Gunung Agung; Balinese: ᬕᬸᬦᬸᬂᬅᬕᬸᬂ, Roman: gunung āgung) is an active volcano in Bali, Indonesia, southeast of Mount Batur volcano, also in Bali. It is the highest point on Bali, and dominates the surrounding area, influencing the climate, especially rainfall patterns. From a distance, the mountain appears to be perfectly conical. From the peak of the mountain, it is possible to see the peak of Mount Rinjani on the nearby island of Lombok, to the east, although both mountains are frequently covered in clouds. Agung is a stratovolcano, with a large and deep crater. Its most recent eruptions occurred from 2017–2019.

1843 eruption
Agung erupted in 1843, as recorded in a report by Heinrich Zollinger:

"'After having been dormant for a long time, this year the mountain began to be alive again. In the first days of the activity earthquake shocks were felt after which followed the emission of ash, sand and stones.'"

1963–64 eruption
The eruption of 1963 was one of the largest and most devastating eruptions in Indonesia's history.

On February 18, 1963, local residents heard loud explosions and saw clouds rising from the crater of Mount Agung. On February 24, lava began flowing down the northern slope of the mountain, eventually traveling 7 km in the next 20 days. On March 17, the volcano erupted (VEI 5), sending debris 8 to 10 km into the air and generating massive pyroclastic flows. These flows devastated numerous villages, killing an estimated 1,100–1,500 people. Cold lahars caused by heavy rainfall after the eruption killed an additional 200. A second eruption on May 16 led to pyroclastic flows that killed another 200 inhabitants. Minor eruptions and flows followed and lasted almost a year.

The lava flows missed, sometimes by mere metres, the Mother Temple of Besakih. The saving of the temple is regarded by Balinese as miraculous and a signal from the gods that they wished to demonstrate their power but not destroy the monument that the Balinese had erected.

During the eruptions and earthquakes, the wreck of the US transport ship, USAT Liberty, which had been grounded at nearby Tulamben during World War II after being torpedoed by a Japanese submarine, slipped off the beach and settled totally underwater.

Andesite was the dominant lava type with some samples mafic enough to be classified as basaltic andesite. The eruption had global effects on temperatures.

2017–2019 seismic activity and eruption

In late 2017, the area experienced 844 volcanic earthquakes, peaking at 300 to 400 earthquakes on 26 September. The frequency and intensity of these quakes caused much alarm among seismologists, as similar volcanoes have historically been known to erupt with even fewer warning signs. Alert was raised to the highest level and about 122,500 people were evacuated from their houses around the volcano. The Indonesian National Disaster Management Authority declared a 12-kilometre exclusion zone around the volcano on 24 September.

Evacuees gathered in sports halls and other community buildings around Klungkung, Karangasem, Buleleng, and other areas. By late October 2017, the activity of the volcano decreased significantly, leading to lowering of the highest status of emergency on 29 October.

On 21 November, activity increased once again. A phreatic eruption took place, with the ash cloud top reaching 3842 m above sea level. Thousands of people immediately fled the area, and over 29,000 temporary refugees were reported to be housed in over 270 locations nearby. Early on Saturday 25 November a magmatic eruption began. The resulting eruption plume was reported to rise about 1.5–4 km above the summit crater, drifting towards the south and dusting the surroundings with thin layer of dark ash, leading some airlines to cancel flights bound for Australia and New Zealand. An orange glow was later observed around the crater at night, suggesting that fresh magma had indeed reached the surface. On 26 November 2017, another eruption occurred, the second in less than a week. Ngurah Rai International Airport was closed 26 November 2017, leaving many tourists stranded. Lahars were reported in the Selat district south of the volcano. More than 100,000 people in a 10 km radius of the volcano were ordered to evacuate.

Australia's Bureau of Meteorology reported on 27 November that ash from the eruption had been observed at an altitude of 9,144 m. By the beginning of December, the eruption reduced to minor emissions of steam and smoke. On 12 December, a picture of the crater was taken showing a steadily growing lava dome occupying approximately one third of the crater.

In June 2018, Agung erupted with 2 km high plumes interrupting air traffic. On 3 July, a Strombolian explosion occurred, sending debris in all directions. In late May 2019 an eruption spewed lava and rocks over about 3 km, with some ash falling on nearby villages and temporarily interrupting international flights.

Influence on the climate
In Bali, the wet or rainy season runs from November to March - but it does not wet the whole island equally. The mountain range of Gunung Agung divides the island between a dry northern part (narrower) and a wet southern part (broader). In the 1984–2009 period, the average annual rainfall in the northern part was 1761.3 mm / year, while the southern part received 2024.5 mm / year.

Of the 27 wildfires recorded in Bali's forests and savannas in September 2023, 13 - nearly half - occurred in the area surrounding Mount Agung in the Karangasem Regency; 5 fires were in the Buleleng Regency (northern part of the island) and 5 were near Mount Batur in the Bangli Regency. (Temperatures decrease from April to July, then rise again from August onward. )

Religious beliefs
Balinese people believe that Mt Agung is a replica of Mt Meru, the central axis of the universe. The most important temple on Bali, Pura Besakih, is high on the slopes of Gunung Agung.

Creation Research Society

The Creation Research Society (CRS) is a Christian fundamentalist group that requires of its members belief that the Bible is historically and scientifically true in the original autographs, belief that "original created kinds" of all living things were created during the Creation week described in Genesis, and belief in flood geology.

The organization has produced various publications describing what it calls creation science, including a journal and a creation-based biology textbook; use of the textbook in public schools was ruled unconstitutional in Hendren v. Campbell.

During the first few years of its existence, different beliefs about Creationism and disagreement over its statement of beliefs resulted in various members of the CRS board and voting members being forced out of the organization.

Formation
Walter E. Lammerts formed the organization in the 1950s after becoming concerned that the American Scientific Affiliation was falling under the influence of theistic evolution. It was originally named the Creation Research Advisory Committee in February 1963, and headed by Walter E. Lammerts and William J. Tinkle with assistance from Henry M. Morris. The committee originally consisted of ten creationists: Lammerts, Tinkle, Morris, John W. Klotz, Frank Lewis Marsh, Edwin Y. Monsma, Duane Gish, Wilbert H. Rusch, John J. Grebe, and R. Laird Harris. The CRS was later formed in June 1963, with the original advisory committee constituting the new society's 'steering committee', with Karl W. Linsenmann, David A. Warriner and John N. Moore joining it at that time. At about the same time, Morris recruited Harold Slusher, Thomas G. Barnes, Willis L. Webb and later Clifford L. Burdlick. Finally, Paul A. Zimmerman joined it. By the end of the year had expanded to approximately fifty members. Members with at least an M.Sc. or equivalent were eligible to be voting members.

Textbook project
In response to the Sputnik-inspired emphasis on science education, and the resultant Biological Sciences Curriculum Study textbooks (which emphasised evolution for the first time), creationists in the early 1960s were searching for an orthodox and up-to-date creationist biology textbook. The CRS responded with Biology: A Search for Order in Complexity, published in 1970 by Christian publisher Zondervan, which was a mixed success, selling out its first run of 10,000, and being approved by a number of state textbook committees but being adopted by few public schools. After an Indiana school attempted to make exclusive use of it, a state court ruled that its use in public schools was unconstitutional (in Hendren v. Campbell) stating: The question is whether a text obviously designed to present only the view of Biblical Creationism in a favorable light is constitutionally acceptable in the public schools of Indiana. Two hundred years of constitutional government demands that the answer be no.

Beliefs and stated purpose
The statement of belief was an issue of discussion among the 10 founders during its formation, with typical wrangling over wording, and little consensus beyond keeping out anyone supportive of evolution. There was concern whether Flood Geology would be able to explain all geologic evidence, and whether the six literal-day creation included the creation of the universe.

The CRS adopted the following statement of belief, mandatory for all members:

The society's stated purpose is "publication and research which impinge on creation as an alternate view of origins".

The CRS's statement of belief was cited in the U.S. Supreme Court ruling of Edwards v. Aguillard. Its mandate that members affirm that the origin story described in Genesis was an established fact was cited by Justice Lewis F. Powell, Jr. as evidence there was a fundamentalist sectarian objective in the field of creation science, and also a fundamentalist sectarian objective in Louisiana's 1981 Balanced Treatment Act, a law requiring creation science instruction in the state's public schools wherever scientific evolution was taught. The judge ruled, "the intent of the Louisiana Legislature was to promote a particular religious belief" and therefore the teaching of creationism was unconstitutional.

Publications
The Creation Research Society Quarterly has been published since July, 1964. Creation Matters containing popular level articles has been published bi-monthly since 1996. CRS has also published an assortment of special papers, monographs and books. Creationist publications have been criticized by scientists, such as Massimo Pigliucci, as "nonsense" in their attempt to blend faith with empirical fact. Glenn R. Morton is an author of more than 20 articles published by CRS in an attempt to "solve scientific problems" of Young-Earth Creationism. Morton later left the creationist movement complaining "The reaction to the pictures, seismic data, the logic disgusted me. They were more interested in what I sounded like than in the data!".

Early purges
The organization's early growth allowed Lammerts to purge committee members who were insufficiently active or orthodox. Four committee members were removed: Monsma and Webb for inactivity, Harris for opposing a literal six-day creation, and Warriner after losing his university position and suggesting that the society hire him as a paid promoter. These members were replaced by George F. Howe, Bolton Davidheiser and H. Douglas Dean. Dean and Davidheiser left after only two years, Dean because of his unorthodox views on Evolution, and Davidheiser because he was unable to work with Seventh Day Adventists on the committee. Marsh, an Adventist, left about the same time because he interpreted the society's weekend meetings as a religious affront.

By the end of 1964, the society had grown sufficiently that Lammerts decided to purge the society of Old Earth, Gap and Day Age creationists: I am determined to get our organization so clearly committed to not only creation but flood geology and the young earth concept that it will later be difficult to deviate from these commitments.

In 1967, Lammerts arranged for Morris to succeed him as chairman of the board, in order to ensure continuing fidelity to flood geology. Historian of creationism Ronald L. Numbers states that the Society "acquired a well-deserved reputation for welcoming only committed flood geologists."

Laboratory
The Creation Research Society maintains a working electron microscope laboratory (scanning EM and transmission EM) at the Van Andel Creation Research Center in Chino Valley, AZ, although they will be moving their operation center and research laboratories to the campus of Arizona Christian University, Glendale, AZ. In 2013 Mark Armitage and Kevin Anderson of the CRS published their findings of soft tissues in Triceratops horn collected at the Hell Creek Formation in Glendive, MT.

Reformist Party ORA

Reformist Party ORA (Partia Reformiste ORA) was a social-democratic political party in Kosovo. The party supported Kosovo independence.

The party was normally referred to as ORA, which in Albanian means the Hour.

ORA was founded as Civil List ORA (Lista Qytetare ORA) in the summer of 2004. During the legislative elections on 24 October 2004, the party won 6.2 per cent of the popular vote and 7 out of 120 seats in the Assembly of Kosovo and formed together with the Democratic Party of Kosovo, a strong opposition. However, in the election held in November 2007, it failed to pass the 5% threshold required to win seats in parliament, netting only about 4,2% of votes.

The following were members of Kosovo Albanian parliament from ORA: Nazim Jashari, Teuta Sahatqija, Gazmend Muhaxheri, Genc Gorani, Fatmire Mullhaxha Kollcaku, Ylber Hysa and Veton Surroi. Surroi was a member of the 'Kosovo Unity Team', a five-member team of the most senior negotiators that represents the people of Kosovo in the talks for the final status of Kosovo.

The last leader of the party, Teuta Sahatqija, took over the leadership on 2 March 2008.

In February 2010, ORA decided to dissolve as a political entity and join the Democratic League of Kosovo.
