Ages in Chaos

Ages in Chaos is a book by the controversial writer Immanuel Velikovsky, first published by Doubleday in 1952, which put forward a major revision of the history of the Ancient Near East, claiming that the histories of Ancient Egypt and the Israelites are five centuries out of step. He followed this with a number of other works where he attempted to complete his reconstruction of ancient history, collectively known as the Ages in Chaos series.

Velikovsky's work has been harshly criticised, including by some fellow chronological revisionists.

Summary
Velikovsky had put forward his ideas briefly in Theses for the Reconstruction of Ancient History in 1945, where he claimed that the history of the ancient Near East down to the time of Alexander the Great is garbled, but Ages in Chaos was his first full-length work on the subject.

His starting point for the first volume of the series was that the Exodus took place not, as orthodoxy has it, at some point during the Egyptian New Kingdom, but at the fall of the Middle Kingdom. In this and later volumes, he made heavy use of the concept of "ghost doubles" or alter-egos: historical figures who were known by different names in two different sources (e.g. Egyptian and Greek) and were considered to be entirely different people living in different centuries, but who he proposed to be actually erroneously dated accounts of the same individuals and events.

First he claimed that the Ipuwer Papyrus came from the beginning of Egypt's Second Intermediate Period, and that this was an Egyptian account of the Plagues of Egypt. He then identified Tutimaios as the Pharaoh of the Exodus (much earlier than any of the mainstream candidates), the Hyksos with the biblical Amalekites, the Egyptian Pharaoh Hatshepsut with the Biblical Queen of Sheba, the land of Punt with Solomon's kingdom, and Pharaoh Thutmose III with the Biblical King Shishak. He claimed that the Egyptian Amarna letters from the late 18th Dynasty describe events from the Kingdom of Israel and Judah, from roughly the time of King Ahab.

Later works on ancient history
A second volume was due for publication shortly after this but was postponed. Instead it was followed in 1960 by Oedipus and Akhnaton, where he claimed that the story of the Pharaoh Akhenaten was the origin of the Greek legend of Oedipus, and that Amenophis III was Laius, and Tutankhamun was Eteocles.

In the last two years of his life Velikovsky published a further two volumes of the series. In Peoples of the Sea he dealt with the final period of his reconstruction, the Persian invasions of Egypt. Manetho's 20th dynasty here becomes identified with the dynasties which ruled a newly independent Egypt in the early 4th century BCE, and Nectanebo I is a ghost double of Rameses III. Rameses III fought invasions by the Sea Peoples, including the "Peleset", conventionally identified with the Philistines. According to Velikovsky, the "Peleset" are the Persians and the other Sea Peoples are their Greek mercenaries. The 21st dynasty then became a line of priest-kings who ruled in the oases simultaneously with the Persians.

In Ramses II and His Time Velikovsky identified each of the major 19th dynasty pharaohs with a corresponding pharaoh of the 26th dynasty. Thus, Ramses I was an alter-ego of Necho I, Seti I of Psamtik I, Ramses II of Necho II, and Merneptah of Apries. In order to make these identifications work, Velikovsky claimed that the Hittite Empire was an invention of modern historians, and the supposedly Hittite archaeological remains in modern Turkey were actually Chaldean, i.e. Neo-Babylonian. The Hittite kings are held to be ghost doubles of the Neo-Babylonian kings, and Rameses II's battle with the Hittites at Kadesh is identical to Necho's fight against Nebuchadrezzar II at Carchemish, Nabopolassar is Mursili II, Neriglissar is Muwatalli, Labashi-Marduk is Urhi-Teshup, and Nebuchadrezzar II is Hattusili III.

At the time of his death he considered that completing his reconstruction of ancient history would require a further two volumes: The Assyrian Conquest and The Dark Age of Greece; these were never published in print in English, but online versions are available at the Velikovsky archive. In the former work, Velikovsky separated the 18th and 19th dynasties, specifically arguing that over a century separated Ay and Horemheb, conventionally regarded as his successor. Instead, he had the 22nd through 25th dynasties follow upon the earlier part of the 18th, leading down to the Assyrian invasions of the early 7th century BCE. The "great king" who crowned Horemheb was the Assyrian king.

The books have remained popular. The British publisher Sidgwick & Jackson reprinted Ages in Chaos ten times between 1953 and 1977, and Paradigma reprinted it as recently as 2009.

Controversy and criticism
The revised chronology proposed by Ages in Chaos has been rejected by nearly all mainstream historians and Egyptologists. It was claimed, starting with early reviewers, that Velikovsky's usage of material for proof is often very selective. In 1965 the leading cuneiformist Abraham Sachs, in a forum at Brown University, discredited Velikovsky's use of Mesopotamian cuneiform sources. Velikovsky was never able to refute Sachs' attack.

In 1984 fringe science expert Henry H. Bauer wrote Beyond Velikovsky: The History of a Public Controversy, which Time described as "the definitive treatise debunking Immanuel Velikovsky". Bauer accused Velikovsky of dogmatically asserting his own point of view to be correct, where at best this is only one possible interpretation of the historical material in question, and gives several examples from Ages in Chaos.

In 1984 Egyptologist David Lorton produced a detailed critique of chapter 3 of Ages in Chaos, which identifies Hatshepsut with the Queen of Sheba, e.g. accusing Velikovsky of mistakes that he would have avoided if he had a basic knowledge of the languages of the ancient near east.

In 1978, following the much-postponed publication of further volumes in Velikovsky's Ages in Chaos series, the United Kingdom-based Society for Interdisciplinary Studies organised a conference in Glasgow specifically to debate the revised chronology. The ultimate conclusion of this work, by scholars including Peter James, John Bimson, Geoffrey Gammonn, and David Rohl, was that this particular revision of chronology was untenable, although they considered that the work had highlighted problems with the orthodox chronology.

David Rohl, one of those involved in the 1978 Glasgow conference, has developed his own revised chronology. While he agrees that the Exodus should be dated to the collapse of the Middle Kingdom, and that Tutimaios is the Pharaoh of the Exodus, there are few points of contact between the Velikovsky and Rohl chronologies, largely because of the different methodologies used to resolve the later periods.

James, another Glasgow delegate who went on to publish a work challenging the concept of a widespread dark age at the end of the Bronze Age, credited Velikovsky with "point[ing] the way to a solution by challenging Egyptian chronology", but criticised Velikovsky's chronology as "disastrously extreme", producing "a rash of new problems far more severe than those it hoped to solve" and noted that "Velikovsky understood little of archaeology and nothing of stratigraphy".

One important disagreement is that Rohl and James consider that the chronology of the ancient Near East becomes fixed by the conquests of the Assyrians in the 7th century BCE. Velikovsky carried his revisionism into the Late Period of ancient Egypt, and considered that chronology only becomes fixed by the conquests of Alexander the Great in the 4th century BCE. They have also rejected some of Velikovsky's more extreme claims e.g. non-existence of Hittite Empire, changing the order of some Egyptian dynasties. Rohl and James's views remain controversial and are not accepted by most historians.

Legacy
In spite of the hostility of mainstream historians, Velikovsky's revisionism continues to attract adherents. Following his death in 1979 Velikovsky's theories were championed by Lynn E. Rose, Professor Emeritus of Philosophy at Buffalo. After Rose's death in 2013 the torch passed to a small group of disciples, among whom the most vocal and active are Charles Ginenthal and Emmet Sweeney. Ginenthal is the founder and principal contributor to an online journal The Velikovskian. He has also authored a series of revisionist works under the title Pillars of the Past. Emmet Sweeney has published his chronological revisions in a series of works entitled Ages in Alignment.

These scholars believe that Velikovsky did not go far enough. Under the influence of Gunnar Heinsohn they have shortened Velikovsky's timeline of ancient history even more. The 12th Dynasty of ancient Egypt has been moved almost 1500 years closer to the present, ending with Alexander the Great's invasion in 331 BCE. The Exodus has been redated to the 8th century, and the 18th Dynasty has been moved to the 8th–7th centuries. 274 years have been removed from the history of the Israelites. The Hittite Empire, which Velikovsky identified with the Neo-Babylonian Empire, has been identified with the Lydian Kingdom, while the Neo-Babylonians are now regarded as vassal kings of Babylon under the Macedonian Seleucids. The Neo-Assyrian Empire is now equated with the Persian Empire in northern Assyria and has been redated accordingly. In truth, very little of Velikovsky's chronology has been left untouched.

Little if any of these authors' work has been endorsed by mainstream historians.

Democratic Labour Party (Trinidad and Tobago)

The Democratic Labour Party (abbr. DLP) was the main opposition party in Trinidad and Tobago from 1957 till 1976. That party was the party which opposed the People's National Movement (PNM) at the time of Independence. After several splits brought about by leadership struggles, the party lost its hold on the Indo-Trinidadian community in the 1976 General Elections and was displaced in parliament by the United Labour Front under the leadership of Basdeo Panday, a former DLP senator. The party was the representative of the ethnic Indian community in the country; however Indian Muslims and Christians were said to be less loyal to the party than Indian Hindus.

The party symbol was a flaming torch.

Federal period
The DLP was formed through the merger of three Opposition parties in the Legislative Council, the People's Democratic Party, the Trinidad Labour Party and the Party of Political Progress Groups. Also joining was Stephen Maharaj, a member of the Butler Party. The three parties aligned with the Democratic Labour Party of the West Indies Federation under the leadership of Sir Alexander Bustamante and merged to form a single national party. The DLP defeated the PNM in the 1958 West Indies federal elections, winning six of the ten seats in the Federal Parliament of the West Indies Federation.

Shortly thereafter the party began to disintegrate. Bhadase Sagan Maraj, the first leader of the party in the Legislative Council, became ill, bedridden and overly reliant on pethidine. Rudranath Capildeo was elected party leader in 1960; he was brought into the party to provide an "intellectual equal" to Eric Williams. When Capildeo left Trinidad to teach at the University of London in 1963, a faction of the party called a general meeting and elected Albert Gomes party leader. However, the rank and file of the party stood behind Capildeo, and the Gomes faction left the party.

Independence era
1961 saw the introduction of the Representation of the People Act, which modernized the election process by instituting identification cards, voting machines, and altered the way in which constituencies were laid out. The DLP viewed this as an attempt to disenfranchise Indo-Trinidadian voters. Indo-Trinidadians were less educated and suspicious of authorities. The DLP claimed that Indo-Trinidadians would be less likely to register, and might be intimidated by "complicated" voting machines. They also accused the PNM of gerrymandering the constituencies to maximise the impact of PNM supporters and minimise the impact of DLP supporters.

Consequently, the 1961 General Election campaign was extremely tense and racially polarised. The DLP alleged that voting machines were rigged. These allegations found support when initial returns showed PNM candidate A.N.R. Robinson receiving more votes than there were registered electors in his constituency. The PNM secured a two-thirds majority (20 of 30 seats) in Parliament.The DLP won the remaining 10 seats. When the Federation was dissolved in 1961 (following the withdrawal of Jamaica), this majority allowed the PNM to write the Independence Constitution without input from the DLP. In response to allegations of voting irregularities the DLP boycotted the opening of parliament and operated largely through boycotts and walk-outs.

In 1963 Rudranath Capildeo accepted a permanent position at the University of London and attempted to run the DLP and serve as Leader of the Opposition while based in London. He was able to retain his seat in Parliament through special dispensation from the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Arnold Thomasos. In March of that year Capildeo gave the party a new creed, democratic socialism. This action, coupled with Capildeo's absentee rulership, led to a revolt in the party executive, and this resulted in the appointment of Stephen Carpoondeo Maharaj, a former Butler Party member, as Leader of the Opposition, while Capildeo retained the post of Party Leader. When the executive tried to replace Capildeo with Maharaj as Party leader, Capildeo dismissed the executive. In response to this on 13 January 1964 three MPs, Montgomery Forrester, Peter Farquahar and Tajmool Hosein resigned from the party and formed the Liberal Party.

Unrest in country and party
Independence left the two main industries, sugar and oil in the hands of foreign multi-national corporations (Tate & Lyle in sugar, Shell, British Petroleum and Texaco in oil). The labour unions interpreted this as evidence that the PNM and DLP leadership had sold out to foreign corporations. George Weekes, an anti-PNM Afro-Trinidadian trade unionist, gained control of the Oilfields Workers' Trade Union, while Krishna Gowandan challenged Bhadase Sagan Maraj's leadership of the All Trinidad Sugar Estates and Factory Workers Union. In March 1965, 15,000 sugar workers went on strike. Williams responded by declaring a state of emergency and suspending civil rights. This brought the Afro-Trinidadian and Tobagonian-dominated Trade Union Congress into alliance with the Indo-Trinidadian and Tobagonian-dominated sugar workers.

In response to labour unrest in 1965, the PNM government introduced the Industrial Stabilisation Act (ISA), which banned strike action in the public service and restricted the use of strikes and lock-outs in private industry. In the spirit of democratic socialism, Stephen Carpoondeo Maharaj instructed his MPs to vote against the bill. However, two members of the House of Representatives (Ashford Sastri Sinanan and Lionel Frank Seukeran), and all four Senators voted in favour of the bill. This led to a split in the party, with three separate wings vying for power. The centrist wing was led by Vernon Jamadar, the leftist wing by Stephen Carpoondeo Maharaj, and the conservative wing by Lionel Frank Seukaran and Ashford Sastri Sinanan. Maharaj, as Leader of the Opposition, attempted to remove the DLP Senators and replace them with leftists C.L.R. James, George Weekes (both Afro-Trinidadians), Adrian Cola Rienzi (an Indo-Trinidadian and former ally of T.U.B. Butler in the Labour riots of 1937), and Jack Kelshall (a white Trinidadian socialist and former advisor to Cheddi Jagan).

As Leader of the Opposition, Maharaj had the ability to appoint and dismiss Opposition Senators. In June, in response to the failure of the DLP Senators to oppose the ISA, Maharaj wrote the Governor General Sir Solomon Hochoy and asked him to revoke the appointment of the Senators and replace them with James, Rienzi and Clive Phil. Instead, based on the advice of the conservative wing of the party (which had the support of four MPs), Hochoy revoked Maharaj's appointment and replaced him with Simbhoonath Capildeo (Rudranath Capildeo's older brother).

Throughout all this Rudranath Capildeo remained party leader. He had selected Maharaj to be Leader of the Opposition and had opposed the ISA. However, rather than take a side in the dispute he remained vague, until he returned from England in July. Upon arrival he denounced Simbhoonath Capildeo as the main troublemaker in the party, and accused him of hiring a hit man to kill him. He met with Maharaj, James, Kelshall and Rienzi and promised to mobilise the DLP to oppose the ISA. The following day he denounced James, Maharaj and Rienzi of plotting against the interest of the party. He dismissed his brother as Leader of the Opposition and replaced him with Jamadar. In response to these actions, the DLP split again. Stephen Maharaj formed the Workers and Farmers Party (together with Weekes, James and a young Basdeo Panday), Simbhoonath Capildeo resigned from the DLP and joined the Liberal Party and Lionel Seukaran became an Independent. This left the DLP and the Liberals each holding four seats, the WFP holding one, and Seukaran holding the other as an Independent. Seukeran formed the Seukeran Independent Party (SIP) as a means of organizing his supporters.

The 1966 General Elections allowed the DLP to return to its position as the sole opposition party. The DLP won 12 of 36 seats. The WFP, SIP and the Liberal Party failed to win any seats. Rudranath Capildeo's continued absences led to his seat being declared vacant in 1967. When the DLP chose to boycott the by-election in protest, Bhadase Sagan Maraj was able to return to Parliament by winning the seat as an Independent.

"No-vote campaign"
In 1969, Vernon Jamadar was able to capture the party leadership from Capildeo. Following the Black Power riots and army mutiny in 1970, the DLP allied itself with former PNM Deputy Leader, A.N.R. Robinson, and his new movement, the Action Committee of Democratic Citizens (ACDC). When Williams called elections 6 months early, Robinson declared that he would not contest the election and called upon supporters to boycott the election. Despite reservations, the DLP ended up supporting Robinson in his "no vote" campaign.

Hoping to capitalize on the DLP's absence Bhadase Sagan Maraj formed the Democratic Liberation Party. Among the candidates fielded were Stephen Carpoondeo Maharaj, Lionel Frank Seukeran and Satnarayan Maharaj. The DLP in retaliation sent out their supporters to vote for their rival the People's National Movement, rather than see Maraj's party win. Thus, the Democratic Liberation Party failed to make headway against the DLP's "No-Vote" campaign and won no seats. Shortly after in the year, Bhadase Sagan Maraj died.

Thanks to the boycott, the PNM won all seats in the 1971 General Election. Many in the party felt betrayed by Robinson's actions, but the boycott resulted in a switch from voting machines to paper ballots.

Demise of the party
Alloy Lequay ousted Jamadar as party leader in 1972. This led to Vernon Jamadar breaking off and forming the Social Democratic Labour Party of Trinidad and Tobago. The rump DLP then merged with the remnants of the Liberal Party and renamed itself the United Democratic Labour Party, now led by Simbhoonath Capildeo. Another faction led by Ashford Sinanan emerged and called itself the West Indian National Party (WINP). None of the successor parties won any seats in the 1976 General Elections. The new United Labour Front led by Basdeo Panday was able to totally displace the DLP from its core Indo-Trinidadian constituency. Jamadar and Lequay both contested the Siparia constituency (among eight candidates), but were soundly beaten by the ULF's Raffique Shah. That spelt the end of their political careers. Basdeo Panday later led the people who supported the party into the National Alliance for Reconstruction (which brought Indo-Trinidadians into power as part of a multi-racial coalition), then he finally led them into power as the dominant faction in the United National Congress government between 1995 and 2001, which won power again in 2010-2015 under Kamla Persad-Bissessar.

None of the principles of the DLP played a significant role in party politics after the demise of the party. Simboonath Capildeo and Vernon Jamadar returned to their respective legal practices. Satnarayan Maharaj took over control of the Sanatan Dharma Maha Sabha after the death of his father-in-law, Bhadase Sagan Maraj in 1971. Alloy Lequay went on to play a distinguished role as President and CEO of the Trinidad and Tobago Cricket Board, from which he retired in 2005.

Political impact
The DLP originated from the merger of the People's Democratic Party (PDP), the Trinidad Labour Party (TLP) and the Party of Political Progress Groups (POPPG). The PDP was a conservative party of the Indo-Trinidadian middle and upper-middle class with a primarily Brahmin Hindu leadership. The POPPG was a party of the white and near-white middle and upper-middle class, a small but economically powerful group. The Trinidad Labour Party was a working-class party, but had seen its support decline from 12% of the electorate in 1946 to 5% in 1956. Both the PDP and the POPPG had achieved electoral support by appealing to the Indo-Trinidadian and Afro-Trinidadian working classes, but the rise of the PNM split the Afro-Trinidadians away from the POPPG. By appealing to Sanatanist Hindus on religious and racial grounds, the DLP was able to entrench itself among Hindu Trinidadians, but the race-based appeal of the 1961 election campaign alienated the non-Indian middle class elements. Rudranath Capildeo's adoption of Democratic Socialism was an attempt to create a stronger link with the party's base, but it widened the rift with the middle class. By the early 1970s the party leadership was almost entirely Brahmin Hindu or Presbyterian Indian.

The DLP never held political power, limiting its impact on the overall direction of Trinidad and Tobago. In addition, unlike the PNM, which had a strong central leadership (in the person of Eric Williams), the DLP lacked a united leadership. The loss of the Gomes faction in 1960 and Farquahar, Forrester and Hosein in 1964 resulted in the loss of a section of the population which would remain unrepresented politically until the formation of the Organisation for National Reconstruction in 1981. Eric Williams had managed to attract much of the Muslim and Presbyterian portions of the Indo-Trinidadian population to the PNM. Even though these groups later drifted away from the PNM, Muslims remained an important constituency within the PNM until 1986.

Faced with the opportunity to expand the party through alliance with labour leaders, Rudranath Capildeo chose to steer the party away from this block. Rather than share power within the party with Afro-Trinidadians, Capildeo chose to remain permanently in Opposition. As the PNM moved away from racially threatening rhetoric, the DLP leadership was able to build a relationship with them. Many within the party accused the leadership of selling out the rank and file in exchange for political favours, but the purge of 1965 ensured that no-one remained in the party with enough personal support to be able to challenge the leadership.

The labour unrest of the 1960s and the Black Power movement of the early 1970s created other blocks of opposition to the PNM, but the DLP leadership was not able to attract these groups to their orbit. Instead, the opposition remained fragmented and disunited until the rise of the National Alliance for Reconstruction in 1986.

Category talk:Ex-gay movement

Older comments
I'm not sure if "Ex-gay movement" is an entirely appropriate title for this category. I think something like "Ex-gay" would be better: after all, we don't have a "Gay rights movement" cateogory. Also movement itself seems a little POV, given that it's position as as grass-roots movement is itself controversial. --Axon 16:33, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)

I agree, though I had a lot of trouble coming up with something appropriate. What about "Gay-to-straight behavior modification"? -- Beland 03:45, 19 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Actually, what we're really talking about is "modification of sexual orientation", as opposed to behavior. I think. Maybe that's a better phrase? Hmm. -- Beland 08:48, 19 Feb 2005 (UTC)

 * I think simply "Ex-gay" is the most succinct and appropriate. Few would dispute the category for the topics at hand. --Axon 11:02, 19 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Sub-topics
What exactly does it mean to be an ex-gay movement. It's not like Elizabeth Moberly, Park Street Church, and Wayne Bessen are ex-gay movements. Should they go under sub-categories like Reparative therapy researchers, Ex-gay supporters, and Ex-gay opponents? I think that would be more reflective of what they really are. Putting them in an ex-gay movement category seems to imply that they are the movement.Joshuajohanson 22:52, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

 * This question arose with respect to the church, which hosts an Exodus Int'l-affiliated support group. This doesn't seem to me to be a strong enough connection to warrant the present category without giving undue weight to what is a minor involvement on the part of the church. The alternatives seems to be to leave it as is and add a whole bunch of other supporters (many/most constituents of evangelicalism, fundamentalism, and perhaps Catholicism, etc.), create a lesser category like "Ex-gay supporters", which I daresay wouldn't survive a CfD, or remove the lesser supporters. --Fl e x (talk|contribs) 02:20, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

 * I tentatively agree with Flex, per Overcategorization. Fireplace 12:02, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

 * The question arose after placing Park Street Church in this category, but I still would like to discuss this issue beyond that one church. I certainly don't want to include everyone that has expressed an opinion on the ex-gay movement in this category, but I think people like Wayne Bessen and Chris Kempling are well placed because they are activists in the movement.  I just don't like calling Wayne Bessen an ex-gay movement, and think he would be better placed in Ex-gay opponents category (maybe merge with ex-ex-gay).  The same thing should happen with some of the researchers involved.  I understand that simply expressing an opinion isn't enough to be placed in this category, but the people and organizations in this category are actively participating in the movement.  They just aren't the movement.Joshuajohanson 01:11, 3 May 2007 (UTC)

 * I agree. Expressing an opinion and minor support are not enough, but when someone's research is in the field, they should certainly be listed. Perhaps we should set up a better subcategory hierarchy something like:
 * Ex-gay movement (contains reparative therapy, etc. + subcats)
 * Ex-gay people (contains only subcats)
 * Ex-gay proponents
 * Ex-gay opponents
 * Ex-ex-gay people
 * etc.
 * Ex-gay organizations (Exodus Int'l, etc. + perhaps some subcats akin to those under Ex-gay people?)
 * etc.
 * What do you think? --Fl e x (talk/contribs) 12:32, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
 * A couple comments... "Ex-gay activists" and, I dunno, "Ex-gay opposition activists" seems less problematic than "Ex-gay opponents/supporters", for the reasons I gave above. (Cf. deletion of Category:Pro-Life vs Category:Pro-life activists.)  But stepping back, I don't think that there's a mistake in putting people into a "movement" category: categories are just groups of related articles.  Including John Paulk doesn't mean that Paulk is a movement, but that he is part of the movement.  This is  common across wikipedia (quick examples Category:Movement against intellectual property, Category:New religious movements. Fireplace 13:14, 3 May 2007 (UTC)

 * It's fine by me if we don't add any more subcats, but there are some already in existence that I think should be used (whether reorganized or not), deleted, or clarified. For instance, should the existing Category:Ex-gay people include only those who have undergone therapy to change their sexual orientation or should it also include proponents/opponents of such therapy (e.g., Spitzer)? If the former, perhaps it should be renamed to make its purpose clearer. --Fl e x (talk/contribs) 14:15, 3 May 2007 (UTC)

 * Right now the structure is:
 * Ex-gay movement
 * Ex-ex-gay people
 * Ex-gay organizations
 * Ex-gay people
 * How about instead:
 * Ex-gay movement
 * People who identify as ex-gay
 * Ex-gay organizations
 * There are sufficiently few notable "Ex-gay [opposition] activists" that it's not clear anything is gained by adding a category for them -- same with "Ex-ex-gay people." Because of the POV problems with objectively labeling someone as "Ex-gay", "People who identify as ex-gay" seems more neutral -- this also resolves Flex's issue with "Ex-gay people". Fireplace 15:28, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Sounds fine to me. (Query: what about someone like Ted Haggard who is currently in "Ex-gay people" but may not [yet] identify as ex-gay? I don't know what he says about himself now, but he seemed not to admit being gay when the scandal broke. He may now admit that, but if he doesn't, he certainly wouldn't self-identify as ex-gay.) --Fl e x (talk/contribs) 15:38, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
 * I don't think people who have contributed to research on reparative therapy should go in the ex-gay people category. By placing them in that category people may think they were ex-gay.  I think there should be a separate category for these researchers.  For example, although Elizabeth Moberly contributed to fundamental research for reparative therapy, I don't know if she was involved in the ex-gay movement itself.  I also don't understand why labeling someone as ex-gay is POV.  There are lists that label people as LGBT.Joshuajohanson 18:56, 4 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Agreed. Fireplace is suggesting "People who identify as ex-gay" as a replacement category, and I think it's the best option raised so far. --Fl e x (talk/contribs) 19:41, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

Can will still have a separate category for people who have contributed to research on reparative therapy, like Elizabeth Moberly, who are not necessarily involved in the ex-gay movement?Joshuajohanson 20:02, 4 May 2007 (UTC)
 * If there enough people to populate such a subcat, sure. Otherwise, just leave her in the main cat. --Fl e x (talk/contribs) 13:04, 9 May 2007 (UTC)

Park Street Church
Flex, herewith what I left on your own discussion page: please define the / your criteria on what constitutes affiliation or association. I suspect if I were weekly to host an Evangelical group in my home, my family, neighbors, and friends would concieve there to be an assocition between me, as host and participant, in the Evangelical movement. Park Street hosts the Ex-gay ministries group meetings on a regular basis, church staff and church members attend. The event is in their Sunday bulletin. Dr Hugenberger's absence at meetings doesn't negate this. Here is a difference I see between my church's providing meeting space to the Boy Scouts of America (BSA), Big Sisters and Big Brothers, and Alcoholics Anonymous (AA): while we would not host an organization we found to be immoral or unjust, we will provide space, but we do not promote their meetings or agenda either from the pulpit or in our weekly bulletin. While our work with homeless shelters is promoted from the pulpit and in our bulletin, AA and the BSA are not. I have attended Park Street Church, thee is a clear message that they do not approve of homosexuality, and do support the affiliate of Ex-gay ministries they regularly host.

 * My point, at the risk of redundancy with some of the above discussion, is that a church which hosts and provides public notices of an ex-gay support group doesn't seem to me to have a strong enough connection to warrant the present category without giving undue weight to what is a relatively minor involvement on the part of the church. Again, the alternatives seem to be to leave it as is and add a whole bunch of other minor supporters (many/most constituents of evangelicalism, fundamentalism, and perhaps Catholicism, etc.), create a lesser category like "Ex-gay supporters", which I daresay wouldn't survive a CfD under WP:OC, or remove the lesser supporters like Park Street Church. My understanding was that three of us agreed above that the last option was the best. --Fl e x (talk/contribs) 14:38, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
 * I agree with Flex -- Overcategorization applies to organizations just as much as individuals. Fireplace 15:00, 9 May 2007 (UTC)

Blessed Sacrament Catholic Church (Ottawa)

Blessed Sacrament Catholic Church is a Catholic church in the Glebe neighbourhood of Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. The parish was founded on March 25, 1913, with the first building being a simple chapel. The current building at 194 Fourth Avenue, was built in 1931.

History
A brass memorial plaque was erected by the Blessed Sacrament parish in memory of parishioners and comrades of the overseas military forces of Canada. It was unveiled on Armistice Day (11 November) 1920 by Reverent John J. O'Gorman, P.P. When the current building opened in 1932, its plain design and lack of ornamentation caused local controversy because it seemed more Protestant than Catholic. However, the building later won plaudits for its modern design. Designed by John Gibb Morton, it is considered an example of the Perpendicular Gothic style.

A memorial organ was unveiled on Christmas 1946, in memory of the parishioners who gave their lives in World War II.

As with Ottawa's other old churches, declining church attendance had caused problems for the church. For several years it served as home to Ottawa's Hungarian Catholic community, though they left in 1997. Church attendance began to increase dramatically when Ottawa Archbishop Marcel Gervais appointed the popular priest Fr. Joseph (Joe) LeClair as pastor. Fr Galen Bank was installed as pastor at Blessed Sacrament in July 2013. Father Galen, along with Associate Pastor Fr Francis Donnelly, have followed in the footsteps of Blessed Sacrament's founder Fr. O'Gorman by reaching out to and working with the parish community.

The church's parish retains its original form. It covers the area north and west of the Rideau Canal, south of the Queensway and east of Booth Street.

Out of the Vein

Out of the Vein is the third studio album by American rock band Third Eye Blind. Released on May 13, 2003, Out of the Vein is the band's first album with guitarist Tony Fredianelli, who replaced longtime guitarist Kevin Cadogan in 2000. It would also be Third Eye Blind's final album with Elektra Records as well as their final album with bassist Arion Salazar.

Writing and recording
Out of the Vein was recorded at the group's own Mourning Wood Studios in downtown San Francisco and at Skywalker Sound. Frontman Stephan Jenkins felt that Out of the Vein would mark "a new period for the band", and added that "The first two albums were like two parts of the same piece. We've had a hiatus. This is a new beginning." Jenkins reported having written over 40 songs for the album as of August 2001, just prior to starting the recording process for the album. Out of the Vein was originally scheduled to be released in early 2002, but was delayed several times before its release in May 2003. According to Jenkins, some of the reasons for the delay stemmed from a self-imposed pressure to live up to Third Eye Blind's previous successes, leading him to rewrite lyrics.

The material went over many changes before finally being released. Jenkins originally wanted the album to be titled Crystal Baller, after the song of the same name, but it was renamed to Out of the Vein because the other members hated the name. The single "Blinded" was originally titled "When I See You". A scrapped collaboration with hard rock artist Andrew W.K. was still set to be on the album less than two months before the album's final release date. Their collaboration was titled "Messed Up Kid". Jenkins and Salazar were motivated to work with him after having attended a live show of Andrew W.K.'s, and coming away from the experience equal parts baffled and impressed by his style of music. The song featured Andrew W.K. performing backup vocals; Jenkins noted that "his voice is so hilarious because it sounds like it's doubled and compressed, but it's not."

The song "Misfits" initially started as a collaboration between Jenkins and Limp Bizkit frontman Fred Durst. Jenkins spoke about a Third Eye Blind collaboration with Durst in 2000, after Durst invited Jenkins to collaborate on their 2000 album Chocolate Starfish and the Hot Dog Flavored Water, although neither collaboration ever surfaced. Jenkins had visited Durst while he was recording Chocolate Starfish in 2000, and the two had co-written a track together in between Limp Bizkit recording sessions. Jenkins reported the song featured Durst on guitar and Jenkins on vocals, with a "funky" sound atypical of either band's work. Per Jenkins in 2002, this iteration of the song credited Durst with writing the chords, Jenkins with writing the melody and lyrics, and Salazar with writing the bridge; the final version of the song that made the album lacks a Durst performance or writing credit.

As of May 2002, Jenkins reported that they had almost 26 completed songs, and had narrowed it down to 12 songs they felt would make the final tracklist. Jenkins revised and tweaked lyrics for the album through April 2003 - a month prior to the album's release - at which point he had settled on the final 14 song tracklist.

Themes and composition
Much of the music on the album was written while Jenkins was suffering through an extended period of depression in late 2000 and 2001. Jenkins noted in 2001 that he wished for the album to have more complex, layered compositions. He wanted to make a rock album, motivated to provide a counterpoint to Radiohead's Thom Yorke's then-recent assertion that rock was no longer interesting to him.

Promotion and release
By the time the album was completed and released, Elektra Records was in the midst of being absorbed into Atlantic Records, and Jenkins contends the group was not a priority: "Our record company ceased to exist the month the record was released ... Elektra Records imploded. It was just letterhead." The album cover is by photographer Mick Rock, and according to Jenkins screams "rock joy". The first 100,000 copies of the CD included a DVD documenting the making of the album.

Reception
The album debuted at #12 on the Billboard 200 with 63,000 copies sold in its first week. By 2004, the album had sold 192,000 copies in the US.

While Out of the Vein has yet to be certified by the RIAA, the album had sold about 500,000 copies as of March 2007.

Modding is another word for modifying, usually the modification of computer hardware. It can either be to increase performance or to just change its appearance overall. In my own experiences I like to do both. As a kid when I first started modding is a relatively easy process of cutting and replacing or just plain screwing things in. Here is a picture of the inside of one of my own computers. I increased the number of fans for better cooling and also better light. The fans contain LED’s in side their plastic casing which help illuminate the computer itself. In this picture (below) shows the outside of the computer with a window so that you can see the components inside.Here is the photo of the front of the computer. As you can see it has one color of light. Blue is a very popular color for modding computers. This computer came with a window. But most other cases don’t come with a window so sometimes you rely on your own skills to install one. Here is a couple more computers I have made.

Jean Henri Latude

Jean Henri Latude (23 March 1725 – 1 January 1805), often called Danry or Masers de Latude, was a French writer famous for his lengthy confinement in the Bastille and Vincennes, and for his repeated escapes from those prisons.

Life
He was born at Montagnac in Gascony. He received a military education and went to Paris in 1748 to study mathematics. He led a dissipated life and endeavoured to curry favor with Madame de Pompadour by secretly sending her a box of poison and then informing her of the supposed plot against her life, hoping that he could earn a reward of cash for warning her. The ruse was discovered, and Mme de Pompadour, not appreciating the humor of the situation, had Latude put in the Bastille on May 1, 1749.

He was later transferred to Vincennes, from which he escaped on June 25, 1750. He then stayed in Paris where he wrote a letter asking for clemency which he gave to François Quesnay for delivery to Louis XV. Latude included his address in the letter leading to his arrest and reimprisonment in the Bastille. He made a second escape on February 25, 1756 by fashioning a ladder, depicted in his portrait by Antoine Vestier, from firewood for rungs and rope made from shirts and bed sheets which he, along with an accomplice, used to scale down the walls of the Bastille. Latude and his accomplice then used iron bars, taken from their fire place, to carve out stones in the outer wall for nine hours while standing in chest high icy water ducking underwater when the sentry passed on the wall above them. After breaching the wall the fugitives fell into an aqueduct outside the walls and almost drowned. Letude then traveled to Amsterdam arriving on April 20, 1756. He was then arrested and reinterned in the Bastille on June 9th, 1756 where he was placed in the dungeon with his hands and feet shackled. While in the dungeon he composed military and financial projects and when he was deprived of paper he composed them on sheets of bread crumbs congealed with his own saliva. He was again transferred to Vincennes in 1764, and the next year made a third escape and was a third time recaptured. He was put into the Charenton asylum by Malesherbes in 1775, and discharged in 1777 on condition that he should retire to his native town.

He remained in Paris, however, and he was again imprisoned. A certain Madame Legros became interested in him through a chance reading of one of his memoirs, and, through vigorous agitation on his behalf, secured his release in 1784. His considerable ability for mimicry and intrigue were evidenced throughout his long captivity; he posed as a brave military officer, a son of the non-existent marquis de La Tude, and as a victim of Pompadour's nefarious intrigues. He was lauded and pensioned during the Revolution, and, in 1793, the Convention compelled the heirs of Madame de Pompadour to pay him 60,000 francs in damages. He died wealthy but in obscurity in Paris in 1805.

Work
The principal work of Latude is the account of his imprisonment, written in collaboration with Jean-Yrieix de Beaupoil de Saint-Aulaire entitled Le Despotisme dévoilé, ou Mémoires de Henri Masers de la Tude, détenu pendant trente-cinq ans dans les diverses prisons d'état (ostensibly Amsterdam, but actually published in Paris, 1787). An English translation of a portion of this work (Despotism Unveiled: or the Memoirs of Latude, Detained for Thirty-five Years in the Various Prisons of the State) was published in 1787. Latude himself denied both the authorship and the accuracy of the pamphlet, but it enjoyed a considerable popularity at the time of the French Revolution. Latude also wrote essays on a wide variety of subjects.

Brian Bennett

Brian Laurence Bennett, (born 9 February 1940) is an English drummer, pianist, composer and producer of popular music. He is best known as the drummer of the UK rock and roll group the Shadows. He is the father of musician and Shadows band member Warren Bennett.

Early life
Bennett was born in Palmers Green, North London, England. Educated at Hazlewood Lane School, Palmers Green, London and Winchmore Council School, he finished school at the age of sixteen to play drums in a Ramsgate skiffle group performing for holiday makers. After returning to London he became the in-house drummer at The 2i's Coffee Bar in Soho and was a regular performer on Jack Good's TV show Oh Boy!

Early career
He then became a member of Marty Wilde's Wildcats in 1959. After a successful period with the Wildcats, during which he appeared on their instrumental record without Wilde (recorded as the Krew Kats), "Trambone", he backed Tommy Steele for some of his London stage performances.

The Shadows
In October 1961 he joined Cliff Richard and the Shadows as the replacement for Tony Meehan. The Shadows were known for their instrumental songs, mainly; Apache (1960), F.B.I. (1961), Wonderful Land (1962), and Foot Tapper (1963), among many others. The band split up briefly between 1968 and 1973, but was reformed by Marvin, Welch and Bennett.

He stayed with the group throughout all of their subsequent line-ups, and in May 2005 took part in the Shadows' European tour. During a show in Reykjavík, Iceland he sustained what was thought to be a minor injury to a finger. A splinter from a drumstick pierced under his fingernail on his right hand, he removed it with a pair of old pliers and applied a plaster. A few days later after arriving in Paris, France he was in so much pain he called a doctor. The doctor diagnosed a bad infection and recommended Bennett go to hospital immediately. Thinking it would be a short visit he attended only to find out that it would involve a minor, but very painful, operation to remove the poison. He was due to be playing on stage that evening and had already missed the soundcheck. He arrived at the theatre 15 minutes before the show with his right-hand bandaged and still numb from the anesthetic. He managed to play for the whole show using an altered playing style.

In addition to his work with the Shadows he has also appeared in Cliff Richard's backing band and plays piano and occasionally vibraphone.

In 1967, Bennett released a solo album of jazz music, entitled Change of Direction, in mono and stereo (neither charted). This was the first solo album by a member of the Shadows. In the 1970s, music by Bennett was selected for several Radley Metzger films, including Barbara Broadcast and The Opening of Misty Beethoven.

Other works
Bennett has enjoyed a parallel and successful career as a composer of library music, issuing multiple LPs with production music labels such as Bruton and KPM. He was also a member of Steve Gray's WASP ensemble, which recorded library music for the KPM 1000 Series. This has resulted in the use of his music for many popular TV theme tunes including BBC sports themes such as Rugby Special ("Holy Mackerel") and BBC Golf ("Chase Side Shoot Up"), Channel 9 Australia's cricket theme and police drama Bluey theme tune ("New Horizons"), the sitcoms Robin's Nest and Birds of a Feather, The Ruth Rendell Mysteries, Pulaski, Square Deal, Close to Home, Murder in Mind and, with his son Warren, composed and played the incidental music in New Tricks. Two of his most famous works were "The Journey" and "Just a Minute" written under the alias James Aldenham and used for the ITV Schools on 4 broadcasts between 1987 and 1993. He scored the British-German film The Harpist in 1999.

He is also an orchestral conductor, having learned how to arrange and conduct music for orchestras from a correspondence course. His son Warren Bennett formerly played keyboards for the band Glass Ties, and is also a composer and producer.

Honours
He was appointed OBE (Officer of the Order of the British Empire) in the 2004 Queen's Birthday Honours List for services to music.

Bennett runs a home recording studio, Honeyhill studios, in Radlett, Hertfordshire. In November 2009, at the age of 69, Bennett completed a 50th Anniversary reunion world tour with Cliff Richard and the Shadows.
