Lava (Ramayana)

Lava (लव, ) and his elder twin brother Kusha, are the children of Rama and Sita in Hindu tradition. Their story is recounted in the Hindu epic, Ramayana and its other versions. He is said to have a whitish golden complexion like their mother, while Kusha had a blackish complexion like their father.

Birth and childhood

The first chapter of Ramayana, Balakanda, mentioned Valmiki narrating the Ramayana to his disciples, Lava and Kusha. But their birth and childhood story is mentioned in the last chapter ' Uttara Kanda' which is not believed to be the original work of Valmiki. According to the legend, Sita banished herself from the kingdom due to the gossip of the kingdom folk about her chastity. She chose self-exile and took refuge in the ashram of Valmiki located on the banks of the Tamsa river. Lava and Kusha were born at the ashram and were educated and trained in military skills under the teachings of Sage Valmiki. During this time they had also learned the story of Rama.

Sage Valmiki, along with Lava and Kusha, and a disguised Sita attend an ashvamedha yajna held by Rama.

In some versions of the epic, Lava and Kusha chanted the Ramayana in the presence of Rama and a vast audience. When Lava and Kusha recited about Sita's exile, Rama became grief-stricken and Valmiki produced Sita, testifying her innocence. Sita declared Lava and Kusha to be her sons and her fidelity to her husband. After Rama had expressed his desire to reconcile with her, Sita called upon the earth, her mother (Bhumi), to receive her and as the ground opened, she vanished into it. Even as he lamented the loss of his wife, Rama acknowledged his sons and sought their company.

In some versions, Lava and Kusha capture the horse of the sacrifice and went to defeat Rama's brothers (Lakshmana, Bharata and Shatrughna) and their armies. When Rama came to fight with them, Sita intervenes and unites father and sons.

Later life
Lava and Kusha became rulers after their father Rama founded the cities of Lavapuri and Kasur, respectively. The king of Kosala, Rama, installed his son Lava at Shravasti and Kusha at Kushavati.

In the Ananda Ramayana, Lava had a wife named Sumati, and together the couple ruled the city of Lavapuri and the kingdom of Shravasti.

In popular culture
Lava is purported to have founded Lavapuri (the modern day city of Lahore), which is named after him.

There is a temple associated with Lava (or Loh) inside Shahi Qila, Lahore.

There are various communities and clans in modern India that claim descent from Lava, an example being the "Levas", a branch of which are the Lohana Kotecha and Leuva Marathas.

Carlo Agostini
This article sub-stub was created in July of last year and has not been expanded since. It reads, "Carlo Agostini (April 22, 1888 - December 28, 1952) was an Italian Roman Catholic patriarch." A google search for this name returns 552 hits -- many (if not most) of which are unrelated. Does this figure meet or exceed "the bar"? Under what circumstances should this text be included on Wikipedia? GRider\talk 19:19, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Magaliesburg

Magaliesburg is a small town situated below the Witwatersrand mountain range in Gauteng, South Africa. The Magaliesberg mountain range is north and visible from town, hence the name "Magaliesburg". The mountains themselves are named after Kgosi Môgale Wa Môgale, a MoTswana chief of the BaPô ba Mogale clan. Burg is the Afrikaans name for Town and berg means mountain.

Tourism
The town and surrounds are popular holiday and weekend destinations for the residents of Johannesburg. With more than 100 accommodation venues and a great variety of activities, the small village at the foot of the Magalies Mountain is the ideal escape for city dwellers.

Magaliesburg is the home of the oldest mine in Gauteng. At The Blaauwbank mine, gold was discovered there more than 100 years ago. Besides tourism, the main income generating activity of Magaliesburg and the surrounding area is agriculture. Beef, maize, and large scale vegetable farming are most prevalent.

The village has become a very attractive option for city dwellers who wish to live closer to nature. Homesteading is popular with many individuals and families going out of their way to be as self-sufficient as they are able. As this is a very difficult goal for most, there are many Magaliesburgers who live in the area but commute to Johannesburg or Pretoria for income generating employment.

Naval Air Station Lemoore

Naval Air Station Lemoore or NAS Lemoore is a United States Navy base, located in Kings County and Fresno County, California, United States. Lemoore Station, a census-designated place, is located inside the base's borders.

NAS Lemoore is the Navy's newest and largest master jet base. Strike Fighter Wing Pacific, along with its associated squadrons, is home ported there.

NAS Lemoore also hosts four carrier air wings: Carrier Air Wing Two (CVW-2), Carrier Air Wing Nine (CVW-9), Carrier Air Wing Eleven (CVW-11), and Carrier Air Wing Seventeen (CVW-17).

History
Commissioned in 1961, NAS Lemoore, as seen from an aircraft flying above, looks significant and stands out from the farmlands of Central California, due to its large construction. It is the newest and largest master jet base of the U.S. Navy. It has two offset parallel runways 4600 ft apart. Aircraft parking and maintenance hangars are aligned between the 13500 ft runways. Separated from the hangars by underpasses beneath taxiways A and C, the remainder of the air operations area is located directly to the southeast.

In July 1998, NAS Lemoore was selected as the West Coast site for the Navy's newest strike-fighter aircraft, the F/A-18E/F Super Hornet. This decision brought approximately 92 additional aircraft, 1,850 additional active duty personnel and 3,000 family members to NAS Lemoore, and several associated facility additions or improvements.

The Navy also brought four new fleet squadrons to NAS Lemoore from 2001 to 2004. Additional military staffing was required at the Aircraft Intermediate Maintenance Department, Strike Fighter Weapons School Pacific, and Center for Naval Aviation Technical Training Unit Lemoore (CNATTU Lemoore) to support this effort. Originally, the officer in charge of construction for building the base was Commander Dennis K. Culp CEC/USN, the first Naval officer in Lemoore.

On 31 March 2016, two civilians were killed when the Jeep Grand Cherokee they were driving in collided with a parked F/A-18 jet. They were being pursued by the California Highway Patrol (CHP) and managed to enter the base without hindrance by base security. A CHP helicopter was monitoring the chase from above and captured the event in a FLIR video; the base tower staff can be heard asking if the vehicle was already in the base. A CHP dispatcher can be heard confirming so and that CHP were unable to contact base security for assistance.

Current operations
With the transfer of NAS Miramar to the United States Marine Corps, NAS Lemoore now hosts the Navy's entire west coast fighter/attack capability. NAS Lemoore was built "from the ground up" as a Master Jet Base, and has several operational advantages, and relatively few constraints, as a result.

Strike Fighter Wing Pacific with its supporting facilities is home ported here. The primary aircraft based at NAS Lemoore is the F/A-18 Super Hornet strike fighter. In November, 1999, NAS Lemoore received its first F/A-18E/F Super Hornets, which replaced the F-14 Tomcat in fleet service as an air-superiority fighter and has assumed, in a different configuration, the role of older F/A-18 Hornet fighters. Currently, there are a total of 175 Hornets and Super Hornets home-based at NAS Lemoore operating from one Fleet Replacement Squadron and sixteen Fleet [operational] Squadrons. In 2017, the F-35C Lightning II was received onboard NAS Lemoore, establishing the first F-35 Pacific training squadron.

Lemoore is home to aircraft assigned to the following Carrier Air Wings.

 * Carrier Air Wing 2 (CVW-2), assigned to USS Carl Vinson (CVN-70)
 * Carrier Air Wing 9 (CVW-9), assigned to USS Abraham Lincoln (CVN-72)
 * Carrier Air Wing 11 (CVW-11), assigned to USS Theodore Roosevelt (CVN-71)
 * Carrier Air Wing 17 (CVW-17), assigned to USS Nimitz (CVN-68)

Circular distribution

In probability and statistics, a circular distribution or polar distribution is a probability distribution of a random variable whose values are angles, usually taken to be in the range [0, 2π). A circular distribution is often a continuous probability distribution, and hence has a probability density, but such distributions can also be discrete, in which case they are called circular lattice distributions. Circular distributions can be used even when the variables concerned are not explicitly angles: the main consideration is that there is not usually any real distinction between events occurring at the opposite ends of the range, and the division of the range could notionally be made at any point.

Graphical representation
If a circular distribution has a density

 * $$p(\phi)  \qquad  \qquad (0\le\phi<2\pi),\,$$

it can be graphically represented as a closed curve

 * $$[x(\phi),y(\phi)] = [r(\phi)\cos\phi, \, r(\phi)\sin\phi], \, $$

where the radius $$r(\phi)\,$$ is set equal to
 * $$r(\phi) = a+b p(\phi), \, $$

and where a and b are chosen on the basis of appearance.

Examples
By computing the probability distribution of angles along a handwritten ink trace, a lobe-shaped polar distribution emerges. The main direction of the lobe in the first quadrant corresponds to the slant of handwriting (see: graphonomics).

An example of a circular lattice distribution would be the probability of being born in a given month of the year, with each calendar month being thought of as arranged round a circle, so that "January" is next to "December".

Makwassie

Makwassie is a small farming town situated in North West Province of South Africa that produces maize, sorghum, groundnuts and milk. The word makwassie is a corruption of the San word for an aromatic wild spearmint.

In 1822 the town was established as a mission station by Samuel Broadbent and Thomas Hodgson of the Wesleyan Missionary Society and the town was laid out in 1907.

Makwasi is a centre for maize, groundnuts, sorghum and milk production

Makwassie is located 14 km south of Wolmaransstad and 78 km north-west of Wesselsbron. It was laid out in 1907 and proclaimed in 1910. At first spelt Maquassi, it was standardized as Makwassie in 1937. The first white child in Transvaal was born there, and the first printing undertaken.

The town claims four distinctions in Transvaal history:
 * the first Christian mission station north of the Vaal River - built by Wesleyans Samuel Broadbent and Thomas Hogson in 1822.
 * the first White person born - July 1823
 * the first printed matter - a Tswana spelling book and religious tracts
 * the oldest town hall - built in 1910

MOATA

MOATA was a 100 kW thermal Argonaut class reactor built at the Australian Atomic Energy Commission (later ANSTO) Research Establishment at Lucas Heights, Sydney. MOATA went critical at 5:50am on 10 April 1961 and ended operations on 31 May 1995. MOATA was the first reactor to be decommissioned in Australia in 2009.

Background
The design of university training reactor MOATA was based on the Argonaut research reactor developed by the Argonne National Laboratory in the mid-1950s, in the United States. Moata is an Aboriginal name meaning "gentle-fire" or "fire-stick".

MOATA was designed and built by the Advanced Technology Laboratories and first went critical on 10 April 1961.

The purpose of the reactor was for training scientists, however in the mid-1970s it was expanded to include activation analysis and neutron radiography. MOATA initially offered training in reactor control and neutron physics, later neutron activation analysis, neutron radiography, soil analysis and nuclear medicine research.

Decommissioning
The reactor was shut down in 1995 as it was no longer possible, after 34 years, to economically justify its continued operations. Experimental data on nuclear fuel and moderator systems was also accumulated during the operation of the reactor. With the dismantling of the reactor complete in 2009, the site has been completely restored. It was the first reactor to be decommissioned in Australia.

In 1995 the used fuel from the reactor was unloaded and in 2006, it was shipped to the United States under the US DoE Foreign Research Reactor Spent Nuclear Fuel Acceptance.

William Reibert Mapother Jr. (born April 17, 1965) is an American actor, known for his role as Ethan Rom on the television series Lost and starring in the film In the Bedroom. He is also known for the film Another Earth.

Early life, family and education
Mapother was born in Louisville, Kentucky, the son of Louisa (née Riehm) and William Reibert Mapother Sr. His father was an attorney and served as a judge in Louisville between 1967 and 1970. Mapother Jr. is a first cousin of actor Tom Cruise, whose full name is Thomas Cruise Mapother IV.

Career
Mapother has become widely known as a character actor, and sometimes plays scary or otherwise dark characters. He played a pivotal role in Todd Field's In the Bedroom, and is perhaps best known as Ethan Rom in the TV show Lost, which he played for 11 episodes during the life of the series.

Mapother has also had considerable roles in a series of independent films, such as The Lather Effect, Moola, Hurt, and Another Earth. Mapother starred in The Burrowers as a Native American fighter who joins a posse to help find missing white settlers.

In September 2007, he was elected to a three-year term on the National Board of Directors for the Screen Actors Guild.

He has provided the motion capture work for Agent 47, the main character in the 2012 video game Hitman: Absolution and also provided the voice before series veteran David Bateson was recast. In 2014, he played the lead in the paranormal horror film The Atticus Institute.

Talk:The Secret Life of Walter Mitty

Untitled
Eh... anyone else thing this article needs re-writing? If nothing else, that second paragraph seems to come out of the left field of an agenda. It's been ages since I've seen this movie though. Also, as a side note, I've heard that Thurber didn't like the movie, felt it made a mockery of his story. -Fuzzy 19:33, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Rewrite May 23, 2006
I realize some of the changes towards succintness and readability may be subjective, but I think these changes provide a much more coherant structure for the future edits of one of my favorite movies.

Notable Changes & Deletions
-User:Bantosh 16:45, 22 May 2006
 * 1) synopis had a few things out of order (e.g. Walter leaving his fiacee) and injected POV (e.g. "Walter predictably ditches his fiancee")
 * 2) took out ta-pocketa-ta-pocketa-ta-pocketa. i agree the running gag should be mentioned, but it is not one of Kaye's patter-songs
 * 3) removed Antoine de Paris facts. these stray from the point of the article and belong in a dedicated article about Antoine himself
 * 4) the mention of lyrics having something to do with ridiculing gays doesn't make sense, especially the way it was written. of course, if you can find a source for it- be my guest to put it back in.
 * 5) the sentence, "The studio was more interested in making a financial success for Kaye's singing and comedic abilities, rather than what Thurber had intended." may be true but such an accusation needs a source!
 * 6) sectioned synopsis off from paragraph about Thurber's reaction and Anatole of Paris trivia

Color versus B&W
moved discussion to Talk:The Secret Life of Walter Mitty (1947 film)

Rather absurd reference to British crime fiction
Please see Talk:Anthony Berkeley Cox for a discussion. < K F >  17:03, 10 April 2006 (UTC)

Film
This page most definitely needs to be split into a film page and a short story page. The Film portion takes up more space than the original story does RSido 02:55, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

 * Considering the stature of this short story, the current article is extremely unbalanced - the story is barely mentioned except in connection with this unsourced Anthony Cox theory. As it stands now, the 1947 film gets most of the copy, followed by the remake, followed by the unsourced theory, with the short story, which should be the article's primary focus, running a distant fourth. I'm going to go ahead and spin off the 1947 film so that we can start fresh on covering the story itself. Okay?  Okay! Karen | Talk | contribs 05:15, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

InfoBox
Hello. 1. Should we hyperlink James Thurber in the infobox within Wikipedia? 2. Should we make a 'See Also' section with one of the hyperlinks linking to Walter Mitty en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walter_Mitty? Thanks. --Mayfare 00:22, 9 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Yes, and yes. Done. Thanks for the suggestions! -- Karen | Talk | contribs 07:01, 9 June 2007 (UTC)

= Why omit a root ???? = Obviously, the title of the story refers to an (if you allow) erotic novel by some "Walter" (supposed to be Hery Specer Ashbee, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/My_Secret_Life) titled "My secret life" in which this "Walter", a victorian age gentleman, describes how he seduced numerous (1200?) young ladies. Maybe someone can add a clue how Thurber got to "Mitty". (Awaler (talk) 21:06, 26 April 2008 (UTC))
 * Considering that the construction "Secret Life of..." is extremely common (possibly inspired by this story), I think it's a bit of a stretch to make the claim that My Secret Life is the definite source of the Thurber title. I'm not saying you're wrong, but we would need a reliable source to make that connection, not just the confluence of the words Secret, Life and Walter.--Karen | Talk | contribs 07:45, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Unfortunately, I am unable to give you a "reliable source" on this. The thing is not my invention, a (deceased) teacher mentioned it in my English class 40 years ago. On the other hand, we are talking about the author of "Is Sex Necessary ?". I see a parallel there. The title alludes to sex, but the text frustrates any pertinent expectations.  --Awaler (talk) 23:45, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

Theater scripts for Walter Mitty and others plays that would be free for educational use
I work at the Washington State School for the Blind and we have a small intranet radio station on site for the kids to practice oral skills, reading skills, and learning about radio production.

We are currently looking for any theater play script that can be adabted for radio, is free, and is kid/family freindly. We are particularly interested in the Secret Life of Walter Mitty but will appreciate any theater script possiblities. Could you help us in our search?

There is a move discussion in progress on Talk:The Secret Life of Walter Mitty (disambiguation) which affects this page. Please participate on that page and not in this talk page section. Thank you. —RMCD bot 06:15, 6 December 2013 (UTC)

Wife is the mother
I never read the original story, but if I read this right, they gave his wife's role to his mother in the 1947 film. His mother is the one who criticizes his driving and sends him off with a shopping list, just as his wife did in the original tale. Just thought it deserved a mention.Thetrellan (talk) 21:56, 16 January 2014 (UTC)

 * Thurber's "wife" characters were all based on his own wife (apparently a classic nag); his "mother" characters, in the same way, seem to be based on his own mother (according to him a stereotypical "dotty old lady", absent-minded and comically ignorant and fearful of "modern" technology). To a certain extent you always know what's coming when a character of a particular category comes up in a Thurber story - in a perverse way this adds piquancy to the humour. --Soundofmusicals (talk) 22:19, 16 January 2014 (UTC)
