Bonnefantenmuseum

The Bonnefanten Museum is a museum of fine art in Maastricht, Netherlands.

History
The museum was founded in 1884 as the historical and archaeological museum of the Dutch province of Limburg. The name Bonnefanten Museum is derived from the French 'bons enfants' ('good children'), the popular name of a former convent that housed the museum from 1951 until 1978.

In 1995, the museum moved to its present location, a former industrial site named 'Céramique'. The new building was designed by Italian architect Aldo Rossi. With its rocket-shaped cupola overlooking the river Maas, it is one of Maastricht's most prominent modern buildings.

Since 1999, the museum has become exclusively an art museum. The historical and archaeological collections were housed elsewhere. The museum is largely funded by the province of Limburg.

In 2009, the museum celebrated its 125th anniversary with the exhibition Exile on Main Street. In 2012, Stijn Huijts became director.

Collection
The combination of old art and contemporary art under one roof gives the Bonnefanten Museum its distinctive character. The department of old masters is located on the first floor and displays highlights of early Italian, Flemish and Dutch painting. Exhibited on the same floor is the museum's extensive collection of Medieval sculpture. The contemporary art collection is usually exhibited on the second floor and focuses on American Minimalism, Italian Arte Povera and Concept Art. The second and third floors are also used for temporary exhibitions.

Old art
The collection old art of the Bonnefanten Museum consists of four main sections:
 * Wooden sculptures dating from the 13th to the 16th century, notably by Jan van Steffeswert (e.g. The Virgin and Child with St. Anne) and the );
 * The so-called Neutelings collection of medieval art, consisting of artifacts made of wood, bronze, marble, alabaster and ivory from the Southern Netherlands, France, England and the German Lower Rhine region;
 * Italian paintings from the 14th and 15th centuries: Giovanni del Biondo, Domenico di Michelino, Jacopo del Casentino, Sano di Pietro, Pietro Nelli;
 * Flemish and Dutch paintings from the 16th and 17th centuries: Colijn de Coter, Jan Mandyn, Jan Provost, Roelandt Savery, Pieter Coecke van Aelst, Pieter Aertsen, Pieter Brueghel the Younger, David Teniers II, Peter Paul Rubens, Jacob Jordaens, Hendrik van Steenwijk II, Gérard de Lairesse, Wallerant Vaillant, Melchior d'Hondecoeter, Jan van Goyen and Cornelis de Bryer.

Contemporary art
Since Alexander van Grevenstein became director in 1986, the Bonnefanten Museum has focused mainly on contemporary art. The main focus of the permanent collection is on:
 * Conceptual art: Jan Dibbets, Marcel Broodthaers, Joseph Beuys, Bruce Nauman, Gilbert and George, Ai Weiwei;
 * Minimal Art: Sol LeWitt, Robert Ryman, Robert Mangold, Richard Serra;
 * Arte Povera: Luciano Fabro, Mario Merz, Jannis Kounellis;
 * Neo-expressionism: Neo Rauch, Peter Doig, Gary Hume, Grayson Perry, Luc Tuymans, Marlene Dumas.

The collection also features video art and room-size installations by younger artists: Atelier Van Lieshout, Francis Alÿs, David Claerbout, Patrick Van Caeckenbergh, Roman Signer, Franz West, Pawel Althamer.

In 2011, a deal was negotiated between the collectors Jo and Marlies Eyck and the province of Limburg. The result was that the Eyck collection of postwar art and the castle of Wijlre and its grounds, are now part of the museum.

Costa Dillon

Constantine Dillon (born 1953), usually known as Costa, is a retired U.S. National Park Service Superintendent and a writer and actor of Greek ancestry. He is most famous as the creator of the film Attack of the Killer Tomatoes! and its sequels: Return of the Killer Tomatoes!, Killer Tomatoes Strike Back! and Killer Tomatoes Eat France; he also wrote the film Happy Hour.

Early life
Dillon, a Greek American (his grandfather's family name was Anglicized from Deligianis), was born in Norwich, Connecticut, to parents who were second-generation Greeks. There is a street in Norwich named after his grandfather who was a carpenter and who built houses there. His father, a career U.S. Marine, moved about the country and Dillon eventually ended up in San Diego

Film Career and Killer Tomatoes
Dillon began making films in high school with his friends John DeBello, Steve Peace, and Mike Grant. The group took 3rd place in the 1971 National Kodak Teenage Film Festival and won the 1972 Shasta Film Festival. They then established Four Square Productions, a film company in San Diego and began making sports films. The group later formed Killer Tomato Entertainment, Inc. which produced the four Killer Tomato films as well as Happy Hour.

Dillon created the concept of Killer Tomatoes as a short film in college. It was later made as a feature film, now famous, at a cost of less than $100,000. Finding a new audience as one of the first films to be available on VHS, the movie developed a cult following that led to three sequels, including Return of the Killer Tomatoes starring George Clooney. A cartoon show was aired on Fox 1990–1992 Attack of the Killer Tomatoes. The term "killer tomato" has often been used as shorthand for the fear of genetically engineered food and was used by the media extensively during the tomato salmonella outbreak in spring 2008.

Other feature films include Killer Tomatoes Strike Back (writer, actor), Killer Tomatoes Eat France (writer, actor), and Happy Hour (writer, actor, production design).

 * Jeff Strand's novelization of the film was published in April 2023

National Park Service Career
Dillon spent 35 years with the National Park Service, retiring in 2013. Dillon had a parallel career with his motion picture work and has worked in numerous national parks, including Gettysburg National Military Park, Eisenhower National Historic Site, Great Smoky Mountains National Park, Independence National Historical Park, and Hubbell Trading Post National Historic Site. He was the superintendent of the National Park Service Horace M. Albright Training Center and the interim Chief of Learning and Development for the National Park Service in 2006–2007. He formerly served as Superintendent of Homestead National Historical Park, Fire Island National Seashore, and Indiana Dunes National Park. He is a recipient of the National Parks Conservation Association's Stephen T. Mather award, the National Park Service Sequoia Award for outstanding contributions to park interpretation, the Secretary of the Interior's Award for Long-Term  achievement in Diversity, and the Department of the Interior's Meritorious Service Award

While at Fire Island, he also received commendations from the New York State Legislature and the Suffolk County Legislature for his accomplishments there. He is a recipient of two awards from the Urban League for achievements in diversity. He is an admiral in the Nebraska Navy.

Dillon is a graduate of the University of California, Davis and the University of Colorado. He is currently an Instructor for the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at San Diego State University.

Jewish Community Relations Council

A Jewish Community Relations Council (JCRC) is a locally based Jewish organization that carries out "action agendas on behalf of and in the name of the local Jewish communities." Councils may aim "to represent the consensus of the organized Jewish community" in the cities in which they operate, and then assist in consulting other local stakeholders on matters of importance to Jewish community values. In the United States, JCRCs are affiliated with the Jewish Council for Public Affairs (JCPA) organization, and relate to that national organization in a variety of ways.

Description
Jewish Community Relations Councils (JCRC) are Jewish local advocacy arms in the United States. Most major centers of Jewish populations have a JCRC, and are either constituent departments of the local Jewish federation, totally independent, or functioning as a joint office. Typically, the board of directors of a JCRC include local representatives of national organizations and local synagogues.

The key to the uniqueness of JCRCs compared to other Jewish communal entities is that they are locally-based bodies and carry out action agendas on behalf of and in the name of the local Jewish communities.

History
JCRCs came into being in the 1930s to provide a means for coordination of defense activity within a community, as local communities were not content to leave this activity solely to national defense organizations like the American Jewish Committee, American Jewish Congress, and Anti-Defamation League, which rarely consulted with each other or with local leadership. Like these national organizations, JCRCs focused primarily on combatting antisemitism.

In 1944, the National Community Relations Advisory Council (later renamed the Jewish Council for Public Affairs (JCPA) was formed as an umbrella organization of 14 local JCRCs, the ADL, the two AJCs, and the Jewish Labor Committee, in the United States. In 2000, the JCPA counted among its membership 120 JCRCs.

According to Professor Daniel Elazar, from the 1950s, the JCRCs with the JCPA and federations played the largest role in Jewish representation. Their importance increased by the early 21st century as Jewish organizational life, along with national life in general, became more and more decentralized.

Bardney

Bardney is a village and civil parish in the West Lindsey district of Lincolnshire, England. The population of the civil parish was 1,643 at the 2001 census increasing to 1,848 (including Southrey) at the 2011 census. The village sits on the east bank of the River Witham and 9 mi east of Lincoln.

History
Two Roman artefacts have been found in Bardney: a gemstone and a coin. Nearby villages show evidence of Roman settlement, particularly Potterhanworth Booths and Branston Booths.

The place-name is Old English in origin, and means "island of a man called Bearda". It occurs in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle, under the year 716, as "Bearddanig", and in the Domesday Book of 1086 as "Bardenai".

Once the site of a mediaeval abbey, ruined in Henry VIII's dissolution of the monasteries, agricultural improvement made the village prosperous in the 19th century. Improved transport, first on the River and then the arrival of several railways caused considerable expansion between the traditional centre of the village and the former riverside settlement of Bardney Ferry, where in 1894 the ferry was replaced by the present bridge. A British Sugar factory, built in 1927, survived the closure of the railways but ceased processing on 9 February 2001.

Bardney Abbey
Bardney Abbey was founded before 679, perhaps as double house of monks and nuns, and perhaps as a Minster. It was destroyed by the Danes circa 860. Refounded 1087 as a Priory, it became a Benedictine Abbey in 1115, and was dissolved in 1538.

Bede relates that Bardney Abbey (which he called Beardaneu) was greatly loved by Osthryth, queen of Mercia, and in about 679 she sought to move the bones of her uncle, the very pious St Oswald, to there. However, when the body was brought to the Abbey the monks refused to accept it, because the Abbey was in the Kingdom of Lindsey, and Oswald, when king of Northumbria, had once conquered them. The relics were locked outside, but during the night a beam of light appeared and shone from his bier reaching up into the heavens. The monks declared that it was a miracle and accepted the body, hanging the King's Purple and Gold banner over the tomb. They are also said to have removed the great doors to the Abbey so that such a mistake could not occur again. So if someone said "do you come from Bardney?", it meant that you had left the door open.

As well as the wondrous light, other miracles were associated with the remains of King Oswald. The bones at Bardney were washed before interment, and the ground into which the water was poured supposedly gained great healing powers. In another tale from Bede, a boy with the Ague kept vigil by the tomb and was cured. The King's heads and hands had been separately interred, for he had been dismembered in battle. A fragment of the stake on which his head had been impaled was later used to cure a man in Ireland.

In 909, in response to increased viking raids, Oswald's bones were translated to the new St Oswald's Priory, Gloucester.

Lost villages
Near the Abbey is the site of the Deserted Medieval Village of Butyate, which was demolished in 1959, and converted to farmland.

There is another abandoned village associated with the former chapels of St Lawrence and St Andrew, north of modern Bardney.

Transport
The river Witham has been used for commercial shipping since time immemorial, but was straightened and improved many times including in 1753 and 1812. A straight course (new cut) was made at Bardney and the lock built in 1770 was re-built in 1865.

In 1870, Bardney had a station which was a junction for the Branch Line to Louth via Wragby and the Lincolnshire Loop Line. The Louth to Bardney Line closed as well as the Loop Line in 1970 although the section north of Wragby closed prior to 1958–1969. The station building survives and is a listed building. The route of the old railway has been converted into a cycle-track, known as Water Rail Way, which follows the river between Lincoln and Boston. The name of the cycle track refers to the river, the railway, and a wetland bird found in the area, the water rail.

Great Western Express Festival
In 1972 the area was host to the Great Western Express Festival, a four-day pop concert (also known as the Bardney Festival). Funded by Lord Harlech and the actor Stanley Baker (amongst others) it attracted 30,000 people to the venue, held at the nearby Tupholme Abbey ruins. Amongst the artistes playing were Roxy Music and Status Quo and, for two nights running, the Rory Gallagher Band. Despite its popularity the show lost money, due mainly to bad weather which blighted the event.

Community
The parish church of St Lawrence is part of the Bardney Group of the Deanery of Horncastle in the Diocese of Lincoln. There is also an active Methodist chapel; the current minister is the Rev'd Gordon Davis.

The modern primary school, Bardney Church of England and Methodist Primary School, was opened in 1983. It replaced two earlier schools merged in 1964.

The village has pre-school facilities, including Bardney Mother and Toddler Group which meets at the Methodist Hall, a butcher's shop, a general store and two public houses.

Bardney Gala, held every year on August Bank Holiday Sunday, is a traditional Gala. The event consists of crafts, trade and community stands, funfair rides, bar and BBQ, sports, children's races, car boot sales, classic vehicles, and an Exemption Dog Show.

Administration
Originally part of the Wraggoe Wapentake, and of the Lincoln poor law union in the Parts of Lindsey, the parish is now part of West Lindsey District, and Lincolnshire County Council.

The civil parish has become part of a group that consists of Bardney, Apley and Stainfield parishes. The villages of Southrey and Kingthorpe are also included.

The 2011 electoral arrangements are:
 * West Lindsey District Council, Bardney ward councillor: Ian Fleetwood
 * Lincolnshire County Council councillor: Ian Fleetwood
 * Westminster, Gainsborough constituency Member of Parliament: Edward Leigh
 * Until 2020 Bardney was also represented in the European Parliament, by the East Midlands MEPs:

Sister city

 * (fr) 🇫🇷 – La Bazoge, Sarthe

Geography and ecology
Bardney lies between 7 and 17 metres above sea level, on the edge of the present-day Lincolnshire Fens, but its name indicates that before the fens were drained for agriculture (from the 17th century onwards) it was surrounded with wet fenland. Nowadays the Lincolnshire Fens are mostly unflooded, very flat and very productive arable farmland. Wildlife observed on the fens near Bardney includes barn owl, red fox and hemlock.

Bardney is surrounded by ancient woodlands composed primarily of lime trees, known collectively as Bardney Limewoods. Lime forests are rare in the United Kingdom, where oak is generally the dominant climatic climax species. The flora of the woodlands is indicative of ancient woodland, including Allium ursinum, Hyacinthoides non-scripta and Circaea lutetiana, as well as several species of wild orchids. Wildlife in the limewoods includes deer, Eurasian jay, European hornet and purple hairstreak butterfly.

In 2017 a white-billed diver was observed on the River Witham at Bardney. This is an Arctic species which seldom visits the United Kingdom.

Talk:Cairo Anti-war Conference

More links
More stuff I haven't had time to go through yet Isam on-line discusion of up coming conference Right wing anaysis of the conference --JK the unwise 18:42, 25 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Alternative image
This is a nicer image. It is of John Rees speaking at the conference. However I think its a bit cheaky to start an article on an egyption conference with a picture of a brit. A bit Eurocentric? should it be used instead?--JK the unwise 10:58, 3 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Move
You certainly don't get paid by the word in page names. Can't we think of something shorter? My suggestion is Cairo Anti-war Conference. Dragons flight 16:03, August 18, 2005 (UTC)

 * I think you are probally correct, it is generally referd to as just plain old Cairo conference, or as Cairo anti-war conference. I think Cairo Conference (against U.S. hegemony and war on Iraq and in solidarity with Palestine) is the offical name though, does that matter?--JK the unwise 17:03, 18 August 2005 (UTC)

 * No, it doesn't matter. Wikipedia policy is to use common names as titles rather than official names (which can often be arcane).  Incidentally plain old Cairo Conference is already taken by the arguably more important WWII conference.  Dragons flight 17:48, August 18, 2005 (UTC)

 * Moved.--JK the unwise 17:58, 18 August 2005 (UTC)

Criticism - POV
"The confernece has been critised by some right-wing groups who are generally hostile to the anti-war movment."

That is how the section starts out. This seems to imply that only right-wingers are opposed to the ideas of this conference. The fact that it is against neo-liberalism in general leads me to believe the criticism is much more wide. Right-wingers may be the most vehemently opposed but can we discuss this better? If you are going to keep that sentence and remove the POV tag then please provide a very good source that states that very few Western neo-liberals who are also social liberals or whatnot have criticized the group. It may be safe to say that right-wingers offer the most vocal opposition. gren グレン ? 08:48, 17 February 2006 (UTC)

 * I see what you are saying and i do not doubt that many Social Democats would also be against the conference. However, most commentators have just ignored the conference so in that sence that have not made critisms of it, they haven't said anything about it. The section pargh is supposed to clearly be critisim that is not from a right wing point of view I'm not sure this is clear enough though. I haven't read any commentators who have made the effort to critise the events anti-capitalist politics. If you know of any other sources of discusion of the conference particuly critising its anti-neo-liberalism, they would be welcome.--JK the unwise 09:15, 17 February 2006 (UTC)

Yeslam bin Muhammad bin Awad bin Ladin (يسلم بن محمد بن عوض بن لادن; born October 19, 1950) better known as Yeslam bin Ladin, also written Yeslam Binladin, as he prefers to spell it, is a businessman and the half-brother of the deceased al-Qaeda leader, Osama bin Laden.

Family background and early life
Yeslam bin Ladin is a Saudi national of Persian and Yemeni heritage (through his mother and father, respectively). He has 54 half-brothers and half-sisters, including 2 younger brothers (Ibrahim and Khalil), and a younger sister (Fawziyya), by the same mother as him, Rabab Haguigui. They used to live in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. His father, Mohammed bin Laden, died when he was 17 years old.

He has lived in Switzerland since the mid-1980s, and became a Swiss citizen in April 2001. He speaks Arabic, English, French, and Persian. As of 2020, he speaks Turkish. He is a Sunni Muslim and is said to live a mainly Western lifestyle. An ex-girlfriend of his from 1993 to 2001, Catherine Berclaz, is a Swiss interior decorator who wrote a book on their relationship, Yeslam, My Love: In the Heart of the Bin Laden Family.

He divorced his wife, Carmen bin Ladin, in January 2006, after 15 years of separation. Carmen bin Ladin wrote an autobiography, Inside the Kingdom (ISBN 0-446-69488-6), which was a New York Times Bestseller, recounting her life in the bin Ladin family and how she managed to keep her daughters in her custody. He has three daughters, Wafah Dufour, Najia, and Noor, and has reportedly not spoken to them for more than 15 years because of their western customs. Wafah (Dufour) bin Ladin earned a law degree from Geneva University, and a master's degree from Columbia Law School in New York. In 2006, she appeared in a men's magazine, GQ. She has lived in New York and now resides in London.

After attending high school in Beirut, Lebanon, bin Ladin studied economics at Göteborg University, Sweden, and business administration at USC. On February 25, 2005, he was granted permission by the Swiss government to use the name bin Ladin to brand products for his business including a perfume for men and women dubbed "Yeslam," and a second one for women "Passion," and other goods such as handbags, accessories, and watches under the name "Yeslam." Shops opened in Geneva (1), in Jeddah (2), in Riyadh (1), in Mecca, in Dammam (1) (Saudi Arabia) and in Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia). He hires creators and chooses the creations, but he is not himself a designer. He has a pilot's license, like his father, and owns a Learjet.

Current activities
Since 1980, Yeslam has been chairman of the Geneva, Switzerland-based Saudi Investment Company (SICO), which represents his family's Saudi Binladin Group's international financial interests. His fortune was estimated to have peaked at 300 million Swiss Francs, but is now thought to be below 100 million.

He has been a partner of Pakistani businessman Akberali Moawalla.

Walter Montagu Douglas Scott, 5th Duke of Buccleuch

Walter Francis Montagu Douglas Scott, 5th Duke of Buccleuch, 7th Duke of Queensberry, (25 November 1806 – 16 April 1884), styled Lord Eskdail between 1808 and 1812 and Earl of Dalkeith between 1812 and 1819, was a prominent Scottish nobleman, landowner and politician. He was Lord Keeper of the Privy Seal from 1842 to 1846 and Lord President of the Council.

Background and education
Buccleuch was born at the Palace of Dalkeith, Midlothian, Scotland, the fifth child of seven, and second son of Charles Montagu-Scott, 4th Duke of Buccleuch, and Hon. Harriet Katherine Townshend, daughter of Thomas Townshend, 1st Viscount Sydney and Elizabeth Powys. When his older brother, George Henry, died at the age of 10 from measles, Walter became heir apparent to the Dukedoms of Buccleuch and Queensberry. He was only thirteen when he succeeded his father to the two Dukedoms in 1819. He also inherited 460,000 acres, including 254,000 acres in Dumfries, 104,000 acres in Roxburgh and 60,000 acres in Selkirk. He was educated at Eton and St John's College, Cambridge (M.A., 1827). In June 1833 he was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society. In 1841, he played in two first-class cricket matches for Marylebone Cricket Club. He was made an honorary member of the Institution of Civil Engineers on the 28th of June, 1812 in recognition of his involvement in great works of engineering in Scotland, such as Granton Harbour. Buccleuch set out his ideas of the duties of a great landowner in a speech given at Branxholme Fete in 1839:

"What has been entrusted to me has not been given that it might be wasted in idle or frivolous amusements; nor would I be justified in wasting the hard earnings of the tillers of the soil by carrying them away and spending them in foreign countries, but I wish to see them employed as the means of producing good to them and to the country at large."

Buccleuch, Lord of the Liberty and Manors of Furness, and owner of extensive iron-mines in the area was, in conjunction with William Cavendish, 7th Duke of Devonshire, a main sponsor of the Furness Railway. He bought up a great eal of land in the area, and rebuilt Lindal-in-Furness as a model village.

Career
A great Scottish land magnate, Buccleuch was a Conservative in politics, and was appointed a Knight of the Garter in 1835 and a Privy Counsellor in 1842. He served as Lord Privy Seal from 1842 to 1846 and as Lord President of the Council from January to July 1846 in Peel's government, when he reluctantly supported Peel's decision to repeal the Corn Laws. After Peel's fall, the Duke's political career largely came to an end. In 1878 he became Chancellor of the University of Glasgow, a post he held until his death in 1884.

On 6 January 1842 he was appointed Colonel of the Edinburgh Militia (a regiment that his grandfather the 3rd Duke had raised in 1798). He was appointed an Aide-de-Camp to Queen Victoria for the militia on 19 March 1857. On resigning from the command on 20 May 1879 he was appointed the first Honorary Colonel of the Queen's Edinburgh Light Infantry Militia, as the regiment had by then become.

He joined the Canterbury Association on 20 May 1848. It was planned to build a town called Buccleuch in his honour near Alford Forest, but this did not eventuate.

Family
Buccleuch married Lady Charlotte Anne Thynne, daughter of Thomas Thynne, 2nd Marquess of Bath and Hon. Isabella Elizabeth Byng, daughter of the 4th Viscount Torrington, on 13 August 1829 at St George's church, Hanover Square, London. The couple had four sons and three daughters:

 * William Henry Walter Montagu Douglas Scott, 6th Duke of Buccleuch (born 9 September 1831, died 5 November 1914), succeeded and was the father of the 7th Duke of Buccleuch.
 * Lord Henry John Montagu Douglas Scott Montagu, 1st Baron Montagu of Beaulieu (born 5 November 1832, died 4 November 1905)
 * Lord Walter Charles Montagu Douglas Scott (born 2 March 1834, died 3 March 1895)
 * Admiral Lord Charles Thomas Montagu Douglas Scott (born 20 October 1839, died 21 August 1911)
 * Lady Victoria Alexandrina Montagu Douglas Scott (born 20 November 1844, died 19 June 1938), married Schomberg Kerr, 9th Marquess of Lothian and had issue.
 * Lady Margaret Elizabeth Montagu Douglas Scott (born 10 October 1846, died 5 February 1918), married Donald Cameron of Lochiel and had issue.
 * Lady Mary Charlotte Montagu Douglas Scott (born 6 August 1851, died 13 December 1908), married Hon. Walter Trefusis and had issue.

Death
Buccleuch died at Bowhill House near Bowhill, Selkirkshire, in April 1884, aged 77, and was succeeded by his eldest son, William. He was buried in the family crypt of the Buccleuch Memorial Chapel in St. Mary's Episcopal Church, Dalkeith, Midlothian. The church is located on Dalkeith's High Street, at the entrance to Dalkeith Country Park.

Saurornitholestes

Saurornitholestes ("lizard-bird thief") is a genus of carnivorous dromaeosaurid theropod dinosaur from the late Cretaceous of Canada (Alberta) and the United States (Montana, New Mexico, Alabama, North Carolina, and South Carolina).

Two species have been named: Saurornitholestes langstoni in 1978 and Saurornitholestes sullivani in 2015. Saurornitholestes was a small bipedal meat-eating dinosaur, equipped with a sickle-claw on the foot.

Discovery and naming
In 1974, Canadian amateur paleontologist Irene Vanderloh discovered the skeleton of a small theropod near Steveville in Alberta. She showed it to John Storer of the Provincial Museum of Alberta, who brought it to the attention of Hans-Dieter Sues. In 1978, Sues named and described the specimen as the type species Saurornitholestes langstoni. The generic name is in reference to the Saurornithoididae, due to the resemblance with this group that is today seen as part of the Troodontidae, and combines their name with a Greek lestes, "thief". The specific name honours Wann Langston, Jr.

The holotype specimen, TMP 1974.10.5, was uncovered in a layer of the Dinosaur Park Formation dating to the late Campanian. It consists of a very fragmentary skeleton including teeth, skull elements, two vertebrae, ribs, tail elements and a part of the hand. Also three paratypes were assigned: CMN 12343, CMN 12354, and UA 5283, all frontals.

Additional specimens
Two more complete and larger partial skeletons (RTMP 88.121.39 and MOR 660), dozens of isolated bones, and scores of teeth are known from the badlands of Dinosaur Provincial Park in Alberta; most of these are housed at the Royal Tyrrell Museum of Palaeontology, in Drumheller, Alberta and remain undescribed. The Alberta and Montana remains are usually attributed to the single species Saurornitholestes langstoni, though they come from a variety of rock formations indicating a wide span of time; for example, the Oldman Formation (dated to about 77 million years ago ) and the upper Two Medicine Formation (about 72 million years ago). Similar teeth are found in younger deposits, dated to around 70 to 69 million years ago, but whether they represent S. langstoni or a different, related species is unknown. Neonate-sized Saurornitholestes fossils have been reported in the scientific literature.

Fragmentary fossils of Saurornitholestes have also been found from the eastern half of North America. A tooth found in the Mooreville Chalk of Alabama has been assigned to the genus. In 2015, Schwimmer et al. identified the existence of Saurornitholestes langstoni from the Tar Heel, Coachman, and Donoho Creek formations of North and South Carolina based on diagnostic teeth and a pedal ungual. This also makes S. langstoni currently the only dromaeosaurid taxon reported with certainty from the East Coast.

Saurornitholestes sullivani is known from the Hunter Wash fauna of the Kirtland Formation in New Mexico, based on the frontal SMP VP-1270. It differs from S. langstoni in the characters of the frontal.

A well-preserved skeleton of Saurornitholestes (specimen UALVP 55700) discovered in 2014 is currently under preparation by University of Alberta paleontologists working in Japan. After examining the skull of that specimen, Currie and Evans announced in 2019 that the Zapsalis teeth from the Dinosaur Park Formation represented the second premaxillary tooth of S. langstoni.

Formerly assigned species
In 2006, Robert Sullivan named and described a second nominal species, Saurornitholestes robustus, based on holotype SMP VP-1955, a left frontal. The specific name refers to the great thickness of this bone, the only trait in which the species is known to differ from S. langstoni. The holotype was found in the Willow Wash fauna of the Kirtland Formation in New Mexico, dated to about 73 million years ago. However, a subsequent overview of dromaeosaurid phylogeny asserted that S. robustus lacked dromaeosaurid characters and should be considered an indeterminate theropod, and a study published in 2014 took the conclusion a step further by demonstrating that S. robustus was assignable to Troodontidae based on similarities with troodontids.

Possible indeterminate fossils are known from the Hell Creek Formation in Montana, North Dakota, and South Dakota, dated to about 66 million years ago.

Description
Saurornitholestes was a small dromaeosaur, with the type species S. langstoni measuring about 1.3 - 1.8 m long and weighing approximately between 5 and 22.5 kg. At the hip it stood 60 cm tall. Like other theropods in the Dromaeosauridae, Saurornitholestes had a long, curving, blade-like claw on the second toe. Saurornitholestes was more long-legged and lightly built than other dromaeosaurids such as Velociraptor and Dromaeosaurus. It resembles Velociraptor in having large, fanglike teeth in the front of the jaws. Saurornitholestes most closely resembles Velociraptor, although the precise relationships of the Dromaeosauridae are still relatively poorly understood.

Classification
In 1978, Sues assigned Saurornitholestes to the Dromaeosauridae. Later studies most often found it a member of the dromaeosaurid Velociraptorinae, but a cladistic analysis by Philip J. Currie in 2009 recovered a position in a more basal dromaeosaurid clade that was named the Saurornitholestinae.

The cladogram below is the result of a 2019 analysis by Philip J. Currie and David C. Evans. Currie and Evans recovered Saurornitholestes as the sister taxon of Atrociraptor.

Senses
Saurornitholestes sullivani is thought to have had a keen sense of smell, due to its skull suggesting an unusually large olfactory bulb.

Teeth function
The second premaxillary teeth of (at least) Saurornitholestes, Velociraptor, and Bambiraptor may have been structurally specialized for preening feathers. This may also have been the function of the unusual premaxillary teeth of the oviraptorosaurs Protarchaeopteryx and Incisivosaurus.

Feeding habits
Saurornitholestes' feeding habits were discovered to be typical of coelurosaurian theropods, with a characteristic "puncture and pull" feeding method. Studies of wear patterns on the teeth of this animal by Angelica Torices et al. in a study regarding theropod feeding habits indicate that dromaeosaurid teeth share similar wear patterns to those seen in the Tyrannosauridae and Troodontidae, respectively. However, micro-wear on the teeth indicated that Saurornitholestes likely preferred larger prey items than the troodontids it shared their environment with. Such differentiations in its diet likely allowed the theropod to inhabit the same environment as its more distant maniraptoran relations. The same study also indicated that both Saurornitholestes and the related Dromaeosaurus (also analyzed in the study) likely included bone in their diet and were better adapted to handle the stresses associated with attacking struggling prey while troodontids, equipped with weaker jaws, preyed on softer animals and prey items such as invertebrates and carrion. This feeding strategy and ability to handle struggling prey was also a feature that these two dromaeosaurids shared with tyrannosaurids such as Gorgosaurus, which was also analyzed in said study alongside these smaller theropods.

A tooth of Saurornitholestes has been found embedded in the wing bone of a large pterosaur, possibly a juvenile Quetzalcoatlus. Because the pterosaur was so much larger than Saurornitholestes, Currie and Jacobsen suggest that the theropod was probably scavenging the remains of an already dead animal.

Paleopathology
In 2001, Bruce Rothschild and others published a study examining evidence for stress fractures and tendon avulsions in theropod dinosaurs and the implications for their behavior. They found that only two of the 82 Saurornitholestes foot bones checked for stress fractures actually had them. Two of the nine hand bones examined for stress fractures were found to have them.

Aase Roland Jacobsen published a description of a Saurornitholestes dentary in 2001. The dentary is about 12 cm long and preserves fifteen tooth positions, of which only ten preserve teeth. Three toothmarks were visible on the inner "lingual" surface of the dentary. Two of the three marks are series of grooves made by the serrations on the maker's teeth. The striations are between 0.37 mm and 0.40 mm thick with cuboidal cross-sections.

The shape of the preserved serrations are too different from those of Saurornitholestes for the marks to be the result of injuries incurred during intraspecific face biting behaviors. Although the right shape for Dromaeosaurus tooth serrations, the preserved marks are too coarse to have been left by that genus. Although a specific identification cannot be made, the most likely perpetrator would be a juvenile individual of one of the Dinosaur Park Formation's tyrannosaurids, like Gorgosaurus, or Daspletosaurus.

Paleoenvironment
Saurornitholestes was found on both sides of the Western Interior Seaway. Alberta, the location of Saurornitholestes langstoni, had a habitat similar to the United States Middle West being plains and floodplain swamps. In its eastern range, Saurornitholestes lived alongside hadrosaurs like Eotrachodon and Hypsibema, large theropods like Appalachiosaurus and Dryptosaurus, an unidentified ornithomimosaur, and another unidentified small theropod that was likely either a dromaeosaurid or a troodontid. Saurornitholestes appears to have been the most common small theropod in Dinosaur Provincial Park, and teeth and bones are much more common than those of its more robust contemporary, Dromaeosaurus.

Talk:One-Tonne Challenge

'''The one tonne challenge is very special. We should all pitch in and try it out.'''

This comment above seems bias and should be deleted--199.212.250.96 16:41, 8 Jun 2005 (UTC)

The United States actually tried its own version of the one-tonne challenge in the 1970's. It didn't work very well.

Reference missing?
The line " It has been mocked in a This Hour Has 22 Minutes skit." is misleading, and should be referenced.

The author was probably remembering that Rick Mercer (of The Mercer Report and This Hour Has 22 Minutes) was hired as a spokesperson for the One-Tonne Challenge. He did ads on the subject that ran during commercial breaks. There may have been a parody as well, but my search did not turn it up.

List of bass guitarists

The following is a list of notable electric bass guitar players. The bass guitar is a stringed instrument played primarily with the fingers (either by plucking, slapping, popping, or tapping) or using a pick. Since the 1950s, the electric bass guitar has largely replaced the double bass in popular music. Bass guitarists provide the low-pitched basslines and bass runs in many different styles of music ranging from rock and metal to blues and jazz. Bassists also use the bass guitar as a soloing instrument in jazz, fusion, Latin, funk, and in some rock styles. Musicians known mainly as guitarists are listed separately in the list of guitarists.
