Wall of Serpents

Wall of Serpents is a collection of two fantasy short stories by American science fiction and fantasy authors L. Sprague de Camp and Fletcher Pratt, the third volume in their Harold Shea series. The pieces were originally published in the magazines Fantasy Fiction and Beyond Fantasy Fiction in the issues for June 1953 and October 1954. The collection was first published in hardcover by Avalon Books in 1960, with a new edition from Phantasia Press in 1978. The first paperback edition was published by Dell Books in 1979. A 1980 edition published by Sphere Books was retitled The Enchanter Compleated. An E-book edition was published by Gollancz's SF Gateway imprint on September 29, 2011 as part of a general release of de Camp's works in electronic form.

The book has also been combined with the earlier books in the series in the omnibus edition The Complete Compleat Enchanter (1989), and with the earlier books and later stories in the omnibus edition The Mathematics of Magic: The Enchanter Stories of L. Sprague de Camp and Fletcher Pratt (2007). It has also been published in Italian and German.

The Harold Shea stories are parallel world tales in which universes where magic works coexist with our own, and in which those based on the mythologies, legends, and literary fantasies of our world and can be reached by aligning one's mind to them by a system of symbolic logic. In the stories collected as Wall of Serpents, the authors' protagonist Harold Shea visits two such worlds, those of Finnish and Irish mythology.

Contents

 * "The Wall of Serpents"
 * "The Green Magician"

Reception
Floyd C. Gale of Galaxy Science Fiction rated Wall of Serpents 4.5 stars out of five, stating that "de Camp and Pratt were far and away the finest team of fantasy collaborators ... their stories are always chuckle-filled delights".

Uppåkra

Uppåkra is a village and parish in Staffanstorp Municipality, in Scania, southern Sweden, located five kilometres south of Lund. The village is known for its Iron Age archaeological site, which has been actively excavated since 1996.

History
Uppåkra was situated on the ancient main road between Trelleborg and Helsingborg in what was to become the Danish kingdom. The original foundation of Uppåkra is dated to the last century BC, although its importance appears to have increased in the fifth century. It seems likely that the rulers of Uppåkra by then wielded influence over most or all of West Scania, i.e. the land along the Trelleborg–Helsingborg main road, known for extraordinarily fertile plains.

Uppåkra declined and was possibly in part relocated to Lund in the 990s. Knowledge about the decline of Uppåkra and the relocation to Lund is still unsure. Hence Uppåkra is held to be the direct predecessor of the city of Lund. However, the area has been continuously inhabited all since, with the two villages of Lilla Uppåkra and Stora Uppåkra mentioned as 'first and second Uppåkra' in medieval documents. Like the rest of Scania, Uppåkra was Danish until 1658. In early modern documents from the Danish era, the two villages were called Opager, which remained their name in the local dialect until the mid-20th century.

Archaeology
A Bronze to Iron Age settlement was found in 1934, when a farm was built close to the church. The first excavation that year was done by the Archaeologist Bror Magnus Vifot. Geological studies carried out by a sugar company in the 1930s revealed that the site around the church of Uppåkra was extremely rich in phosphate, the highest concentration of it in Scania. Since excrement contains phosphate, this indicates the presence of many cattle and people over time. The study was conducted by Olof Arrhenius across the province of Scania.

In the middle of 1990 investigations with metal detectors revealed almost 30,000 gold, silver and bronze objects. Archaeological excavations in a 100 acre field intensified in 1996: they show Uppåkra to have been among the richest and largest Iron Age–Viking Age towns on the Scandinavian Peninsula. For centuries, maybe for most of the first millennium, Uppåkra was a place of religious and political power; remains of a pre-Christian temple excavated during 2000–2004 demonstrated that it was also an important cult place.

During excavations in the summer of 2007, the remains of a building destroyed by fire were investigated. The building was situated just to the west of the temple. It was presumably a longhouse of more than 40 metres in length, built in the 5th or 6th century. The excavations also yielded a large amount of ceramic, bone, and glass artefacts, and a number of metal objects in iron, bronze and gold, including fibulae, two identically stamped bracteates, and a probable surgical instrument. One of the objects excavated in 2007, interpreted as representing an ornamental lion, made headlines due to its peculiar resemblance to Mickey Mouse.

Sir John Deane's College

Sir John Deane's Sixth Form College is a sixth form college in Northwich, Cheshire, UK. It was formerly Sir John Deane's Grammar School, which was founded in 1557.

History
"For as much as God's glory, his honour, and the wealth public, is advanced and maintained by no means more than by virtuous education and bringing up of Youth under such as be learned and virtuous Schoolmasters, whose good examples may as well instruct them to live well as their doctrine and learning may furnish their minds with knowledge and cunning, [I] have thought it good, not only to erect the said Free Grammar School, and to provide a reasonable and competent Stypend [sic] for the Schoolmaster of the same, and that in respect of the zeal that I have to God's glory, and for the love that I bear to my native country ..."

Sir John Deane (in the 16th century, the title indicated a presbyter with a university degree, rather than a knight; in today's language, he would be the Rev'd John Deane, MA) was born in Shurlach, between Davenham and the Rudheath district of Northwich, but rose to become Rector of Great St Bartholomew in Smithfield, London, and Prebendary of Lincoln. He worked under both Protestant and Roman Catholic régimes during the English Reformation.

He established a grammar school for poor boys in Witton on Michaelmas 1557, "in the name of Jesus". It was to be maintained by feoffees (a kind of charity), who were given land in Chester and the Wirral, the result of Sir John's astuteness during the dissolution of the monasteries. As well as prescribing rules for the Feofees, Schoolmaster and schoolboys, the foundation statues record his interest in an old Cheshire custom whereby schoolboys "a weeke before Christynmas and Easter, barre and keep forth of the Schoole the schoolmaster, in such sort is other schollers doe in greete schooles." Sir John required his Grammar School to enforce the custom and allow the boys to play with bows and arrows, "to the end that the Schollars [sic] have not any evil opinion of the Schoolmaster." It was generally known as Witton Grammar School, or Witton Free Grammar School, in the early centuries. It had a close relationship with St Helen's Witton, and its early buildings were on the same site. The school had a reputation as hotbed of Puritanism in the early 17th century, and this is still perhaps its greatest contribution to public life. However, it fell into decline and became the smallest of the four ancient grammar schools of Cheshire. During the early 19th century, the feoffees and the headmaster began legal action in a dispute over the headmaster's salary, and eventually wider mismanagement. The case went to the Court of Chancery and took decades to resolve, sapping much of the school's strength.

In the early 20th century, three financial decisions radically changed the character of the school, by then generally referred to as Sir John Deane's Grammar School or Northwich Grammar School. Firstly, it received a generous 350th-anniversary benefaction from Sir John Brunner, allowing the governors to construct new buildings on its current riverside site. Secondly, the feoffees made poor investment decisions, culminating in the sale of property in Chester, that later became a high-value shopping district. Thirdly, they decided that in view of the school's long-term financial weakness, the original mandate was best fulfilled by entering the state system. The school came under the auspices of Cheshire County Council as the boys' grammar school for the Northwich area. For some time it continued to have boarders in Riversdale (an old house), which also functioned at times as the headmaster's house. This phase ended in 1977, when RoSLA and the County Council's policy of comprehensive education saw Northwich move from selective, single-sex 11–18 schools to comprehensive mixed 11–16 schools with Sir John Deane's becoming the town's sixth form college.

Present day

Sir John Deane's College re-established itself as a voluntary controlled sixth form college in September 1978. It is a single site campus, parallel to the River Weaver; the college is around half a mile away from Northwich town centre, in the unitary authority of Cheshire West and Chester. The college provides various qualifications. The college's main aim is to provide advanced level courses for full-time students aged between 16 and 18. In 1998, the college introduced part-time adult courses.

In the last Ofsted inspection, the inspectors gave the college's quality of provision outstanding in all of the curriculum areas inspected. The inspectors also noted that the college's overall retention and pass rates are very high and are significantly above the national averages for other sixth form colleges.

The college underwent a £28 million demolition and extension programme. The new college was finished in late 2010 and fully opened in early 2011, with each department having its own area in the new building with the original building being used as a new canteen and student services.

The college also has leisure facilities, including an outdoor astroturf pitch, football and rugby pitches, tennis courts, a sports hall and a swimming pool.

SPQR (board game)

SPQR is a board wargame designed by Richard Berg and Mark Herman, and released in 1992 by GMT Games, as part of the Great Battles of History (GBoH) series of games on ancient warfare. SPQR deals with battles fought by the Roman Republic, and is designed to showcase the strengths and weaknesses of the Roman manipular legion.

There are two editions of the game, the second having changes in some rules.

Scenarios
The game includes five historical scenarios, Cannae, Zama, Cynoscephalae, Beneventum and Bagradas Plains, plus a fantasy scenario pitting Rome against Alexander the Great.

Scale
The game maps are covered with a hexagonal grid, each hex representing 70 yards of distance. Each turn represents about 15–20 minutes, although the rules are designed assuming a loose time scale. Each counter represents 300 to 1000 fighting troops, depending on size and type. Since little is known about the terrain, numbers of men or types of units engaged, methods of combat, leaders and so on, these games, despite their high level of detail, remain essentially speculative in nature.

Expansions
A number of expansions were released for SPQR:
 * Consul For Rome (1992), adding the Battles of the Trebia and the Metaurus
 * War Elephant (1992), adding the Battles of Magensia and Raphia
 * Pyrrhic Victory (1993) adding the Battles of Heraclea and Asculum
 * Africanus (1994) adding the Battles of Baecula and Ilipa
 * Jugurtha (1998) adding the Battles of the Muthul and Cirta
 * Deluxe SPQR (2008), combining the Basic SPQR game with all the above expansions, with the exception of Raphia from "War Elephant" and Cirta from "Jurgurtha". It also includes counters for the battle of Marathon and for the Jewish revolt against the Seleucid Empire
 * Barbarian (2008), adding the battles of Lautulae, Tifernum, Sentinum, Telamon and Cremona

Reception
SPQR won the 1992 Charles S. Roberts Award for Best Pre-World War II Boardgame, and Best Wargame Graphics for the map by Mark Simonitch; and an Origins Award for Best Pre-20th Century Boardgame of 1992.

Ōyamatsumi

Ōyama-tsumi or Ohoyama-tsumi (Kojiki: 大山津見神 or Nihon Shoki: 大山祇神, 大山積神, 大山罪神), also Ōyama-tsumi-mi'oya-no-mikoto (大山祇御祖命), is a god of mountains, sea, and war in Japanese mythology. He is an elder brother of Amaterasu and Susanoo. His other names are Watashi-no-Ōkami (和多志大神) and Sakatoke (酒解神).

Genealogy
In the Kamiumi of the Kojiki, Ōyama-tsumi was born between Izanagi and Izanami. After which he gave birth with Kaya-no-hime (鹿屋野比売神), also known as No-zuchi (野椎神), female deity from their union, the following gods pairs of eight were born:

 * Ame-no-sazuchi (天之狭土神), genderless deity and spirit
 * Kuni-no-sazuchi (国之狭土神), genderless deity and spirit
 * Ame-no-sagiri (天之狭霧神), genderless deity and spirit
 * Kuni-no-sagiri (国之狭霧神), genderless deity and spirit
 * Ame-no-kurado (天之闇戸神), genderless deity and spirit
 * Kuni-no-kurado (国之闇戸神), genderless deity and spirit
 * Ohoto-mato-hiko (大戸惑子神), male deity
 * Ohoto-mato-hime (大戸惑女神), female deity

Other children of Ōyama-tsumi who are parentless without a mother:

 * Kamu'ō-ichi-hime (神大市比売), her children:

 * 1) Ōtoshi (大歳神, Ōtoshi-no-kami) or Nigihayahi (饒速日尊 Nigihayahi-no-mikoto), commonly known: Toshigami (年神) or Ōtoshi (大年神, Ōtoshi-no-kami)
 * 2) Uka-no-mitama (宇迦之御魂神, Uka-no-mitama-no-kami), commonly known as Inari (稲荷神, Inari-no-kami)

 * (木花知流比売) - wife of Yashimajinumi (八島士奴美神), his nephew through Susanoo
 * Iwanaga-hime (石長比売) or (磐長姫命 in the Kujiki (旧事紀), or Sendai Kuji Hongi (先代旧事本紀)) - sister of Ko-no-sakuya-hime and wife of Ninigi
 * Ko-no-sakuya-hime (木花之佐久夜毘売) - sister of Iwanaga-hime and wife of Ninigi

including the twin deities:

 * Ashinazuchi or Ashinadzuchi (Kojiki: 足名椎; Nihon Shoki: 脚摩乳命) - other names: (足摩乳命, 足名槌命 Ashinazuchi or Ashinadzuchi -no-mikoto; 足名鉄神, Ashinazuchi or Ashinadzuchi)
 * Tenazuchi or Tenadzuchi (Kojiki: 手名椎; Nihon Shoki: 手摩乳命) - other name: (名槌命, Tenazuchi or Tenadzuchi)

However, in the Nihon Shoki, Ōyama-tsumi is supposed to be born when Izanagi slashed his child, Kagutsuchi (軻遇突智).

The child of Ōyama-tsumi from his first wife Kaya-no-hime, the deity Ame-no-sagiri has a daughter, Tohotsumachi-ne (遠津待根神), and the eighth descendant of the male deity Ōkuninushi (大国主神), the male deity Ame-no-hibara-ōshinadomi (天日腹大科度美神), from their union gave birth to the male deity, To'otsuyama-sakitarashi (遠津山岬多良斯神), who is the descendant of Ōyama-tsumi.

There is not much written about Ōyama-tsumi, and children associated with him appears at times. As for the myth of Yamata-no-orochi, Susanoo's wife, Kushinada-hime (櫛名田比売命 Kushinada-hime-no-mikoto), and her twin parents, the male deity Ashinazuchi (足名椎) and female deity Tenazuchi (手名椎), are known and claimed to be the children of Ōyama-tsumi.

Afterwards, the lineage falls together with his descendants of his half-brother Susanoo, with the union of Ōyama-tsumi first daughter, Kamu'ō-ichi-hime (神大市比売), between them gave birth to Ōtoshi (or Toshigami) and Uka-no-mitama. Then, Susanoo's union with Ōyama-tsumi granddaughter, Kushinada-hime, gave birth to the male deity Yashimajinumi (八島士奴美神). Then Yashimajinumi married Ōyama-tsumi's daughter Konohachiru-hime (木花知流比売), from their union gave birth to the male deity Fuwanomojikunusunu/ Fuwanomodjikunusunu (布波能母遅久奴須奴神, or Fuhanomojikunusunu/ Fuhanomodjikunusunu). Fuwanomojikunusu is the husband of Hikawa-hime (日河比売, or Hikaha-hime), the daughter of the male deity Okami (淤加美神), from their union gave birth to the male deity Fukafuchi-no-Mizuyarehana (深淵之水夜礼花神).

Then, Fukafuchi-no-Mizuyarehana married Ame-no-tsudohechine (天之都度閇知泥神, or 阿麻乃都刀閇乃知尼, Ama-no-tsutohenochine in the "Origin of the Great Shining Deity Awaga" (Awaga Daimyōjin Mototsufumi, 粟鹿大明神元記)) and from their union gave birth to Omizunu/ Omidzunu (淤美豆奴神, or 意弥都奴). Then, Omizunu/ Omidzunu married the female deity Futemimi (布帝耳神), who is the daughter of the deity Funozuno (布怒豆怒神) and from their union gave birth to the male deity Ame-no-Fuyukinu (天之冬衣神). Ame-no-Fuyukinu married the female deity Sashikuni Wakahime (刺国若比売), who is the daughter of the male deity Sashikuni Okami (刺国大神, Sashikuni Ōkami), from their union gave birth to the male deity Ōkuninushi, the sixth generation grandson of Ōyama-tsumi. These are recorded from a book called the "Origin of the Great Shining Deity Awaga" (Awaga Daimyōjin Mototsufumi, 粟鹿大明神元記) at Awaga Shrine (粟鹿神社, Awaga Jinja) in Awaga, town of Santō, Asago, Hyōgo Prefecture, Japan.

In the myth of Tenson Kōrin (天孫降臨), the descent of Amaterasu's grandson Ninigi-no-Mikoto from Heaven (Takamagahara) to Ashihara no Nakatsukuni, Ninigi has encountered Ōyama-tsumi's daughter Ko-no-hanasakuya-hime (木花之佐久夜毘売), - the kami of Mount Fuji, Ōyama-tsumi has offered both Ko-no-hanasakuya-hime and her older sister Iwanaga-hime (石長比売). Then, when Ninigi sends back Iwanaga-hime only by her ugly appearance, which in return has angered Ōyama-tsumi and said, "The reason why I gave together with Iwanaga-hime aside from her sibling Ko-no-hanasakuya-hime was because I made a pledge that the heavenly grandson (Ninigi) would be eternal like a rock, but she was sent back and the life expectancy of the heavenly grandson (Ninigi) was shortened."

His most important shrine, Ōyamazumi Shrine, is located on Ōmishima.

Talk:Lordship Lane, Southwark

This article was voted on for deletion at Votes for deletion/Lordship Lane. The consensus was to keep it. dbenbenn | talk 16:36, 14 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Save the Lordship Lane article campaign
Lordship Lane is an ancient and interesting highway that deserves it's own entry in Wikipedia. It is no mere suburban street but has a history of it's own, and an interesting name dating to centurys past when it led to Friern manor. I had been planning to just have a stub and later to add detail but instead now we will quickly put in place a comprehensive article on this notable location. Vive Lordship Lane!--File Éireann 12:50, 7 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Southern end of Lordship Lane
The end is the junction with Wood Vale, not Dulwich Common: the Concrete House is actually on this part of the lane, and the new houses/flats opposite on the old TA centre site are facing Lordship Lane (if you don't believe me, go and look at the street signs). 81.179.111.145 17:36, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

Gallery?
I'm thinking of using the tag to include photographs of the area. Any comments on if this is a suitable thing to do or an alternative way of going about it?

-- Ashley VH 00:08, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

Junichi Inamoto

Junichi Inamoto (稲本 潤一) is a Japanese professional footballer who currently plays as a midfielder for Kantō Soccer League club,Nankatsu SC. He is a retired international for the Japan national team.

Gamba Osaka
Inamoto was born in Kagoshima Prefecture. He played for Japanese club Gamba Osaka during his last year of high school, signing with the club in 1997. In April of that year, at the age of 17, he made his debut in the 1997 J.League season, making him the youngest player in the J.League (at that time). He played for Gamba until summer 2001 and played 118 matches in the J1 League.

Loan to Arsenal
Inamoto was then one of many high-profile transfers of Asian players to Europe, signing with Arsenal of the English Premier League. Inamoto scored two goals for the Japan national team at the 2002 FIFA World Cup, but had already been released by Arsenal shortly before the tournament began.

Loan to Fulham
Inamoto was then signed by Fulham on a long-term loan deal from Gamba Osaka. Initially he settled well at the London club, garnering good notices as a tough-tackling midfielder with an eye for a spectacular goal. He became a fan favourite quickly, scoring four goals over the two legs of Fulham's 2002 UEFA Intertoto Cup final win against Bologna, scoring once in the first leg and a hat trick in the second. Other notable goals he scored in his time for Fulham include goals against Tottenham Hotspur, Sunderland, Middlesbrough and also in the 3–1 win against Manchester United at Old Trafford in October 2003. He also scored in the FA Cup against Everton which commentator Barry Davies described as "a Japanese peach". Inamoto was also described as "bigger than Beckham" by the Japanese media. However, he sustained a fractured tibia in an international friendly against England, and returned to Gamba Osaka to do promotional work. Fulham were interested in signing him once more, but concerns remained over his recovery from injury.

West Bromwich Albion
Inamoto signed with West Bromwich Albion for a decidedly small £200,000 transfer fee, which was only to be paid once he had made an appearance for the Midlands club. However, Gary Megson departed as West Bromwich Albion manager shortly afterwards, and successor Bryan Robson was unsure of the player.

Loan to Cardiff City
Inamoto was loaned to Cardiff City for the latter part of the 2004–05 season, and impressed, being recalled to play a role in West Brom's survival campaign in the Premiership. In 2005–06 he was a regular in the West Brom side, and was called up to the Japan squad for the 2006 FIFA World Cup, the first Albion player to play in the tournament for 20 years. While at West Brom Inamoto scored once, an extra time winner in a League Cup tie against former club Fulham on 25 October 2005.

Galatasaray
On 31 August 2006, Inamoto signed for Galatasaray.

Eintracht Frankfurt
On 29 May 2007, it was revealed that he signed a two-year contract with German club Eintracht Frankfurt, joining on a free transfer. Inamoto was presented in a press conference joining fellow Japanese striker Naohiro Takahara in Frankfurt and was released on 30 May 2009.

Rennes
On 19 June 2009, French Ligue 1 side Rennes announced that Inamoto had signed a contract with them.

Kawasaki Frontale
Inamoto signed for J1 League club Kawasaki Frontale on 11 January 2010 in a move back to his homeland after nine years away in Europe. He played for Frontale for 5 seasons. He left at the end of the 2014 season.

Hokkaido Consadole Sapporo
In 2015, Inamoto then subsequently featured for Hokkaido Consadole Sapporo (later Hokkaido Consadole Sapporo) in the J2 League. Consadole won the 2016 season and was promoted to J1. However he could only play single-digit matches every season from the 2016 season onward. He resigned at the end of the 2018 season.

SC Sagamihara
On 23 January 2019, Inamoto signed with J3 League club SC Sagamihara. On 15 June 2019, he scored his first goal for the club in a league match against Gamba Osaka U23.

Nankatsu SC
On 18 January 2022, Inamoto signed for fifth tier Kantō Soccer League club, Nankatsu SC. On 30 July 2023, he scored his first goal for the club at the age of 43 in a league match against Toin University of Yokohama scoring a header.

International career
In August 1995, Inamoto was selected for Japan U17 for the 1995 U-17 World Championship. He played all three matches. In April 1999, he was selected for Japan U20 for the 1999 FIFA World Youth Championship. At this tournament, he played three matches as Japan finished second.

On 5 February 2000, Inamoto debuted for the senior Japan national team under manager Philippe Troussier against Mexico. After his debut, Inamoto played ten matches or more every year under Troussier.

In September 2000, Inamoto was selected for Japan U23 for 2000 Summer Olympics. He played the full game in all four matches and scored a goal against Slovakia.

In 2000, Inamoto played at the 2000 AFC Asian Cup. He played four matches as Japan won the championship. In 2001, he also played at the 2001 FIFA Confederations Cup. He played four matches as Japan finished second. In 2002, he was selected by Japan for the 2002 FIFA World Cup. He played all four matches and scored two goals against Belgium in the first match and Russia in the second match. Japan qualified for the knockout stage for the first time in their history.

After the 2002 FIFA World Cup, Inamoto played at the 2003 and the 2005 FIFA Confederations Cup. In 2006, he was selected by Japan for the 2006 FIFA World Cup. He played two matches as Japan was eliminated at the group stage.

After the 2006 FIFA World Cup, due to generational change, Inamoto was not selected for Japan again until June 2007. After that, he played several matches every year. In 2010, he was selected for the 2010 FIFA World Cup. He played two matches as Japan qualified for the knockout stage. This World Cup would mark Inamoto’s last game for Japan. In total, he played 82 games and scored 5 goals for the national side.

Additions from White Dwarf
User Jesse Mulkey has pasted in (and beautifully formatted) large sections of White Dwarf. Even with accreditation, surely this is straight copyright violation? See the Copyright FAQ. We would need to extract the key points and rewrite them. Removing for now - the content can be still accessed from page history. --Air 12:52, 7 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Unencyclopedic?
I agree with 151.204.6.44 - at the very least this article (and all the other 40k articles) should be scaled back. Can you imagine the Brittanica going into this much detail about a tiny subsection of the totally fictitious lore associated with a table-top game? I'm very glad that this information has been put on the net, but this is not the place to put it in this detail. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.24.201.121 (talk) 00:46, 21 November 2009 (UTC)

Anonymous user 151.204.6.44 has twice added this tag to the article. I'm reverting again as this article seems perfectly justified. Note the many other articles in the category Warhammer 40,000 species - why are these articles not under similar attack? --Air 12:52, 7 Feb 2005 (UTC)

 * I think they are. 151.204.6.44 seems to have some sort of chip on his/her shoulder. "Wikipedia is not a fan site" apparently. The IP

 * Considering how games workshop and their fiction is now seriously branching out into other areas(video games, books, comics etc) I don't see how it can be classed as a niche fan thing. --Silveralex 28 June 2005

Genestealer in Rogue Trader
Games Workshop have helpfully reprinted the Genestealer and Tyranid articles from Rogue Trader. --Air 07:54, 20 May 2005 (UTC) http://us.games-workshop.com/games/40k/tyranids/articles/genesis.htm

Ovipositor
A line in this article implied that the Alien jaw-within-a-jaw was an ovipostitor; that is incorrect. The ovipositor was the egglaying apparatus attached to the Alien queen's posterior. God, I'm a nerd. :) Fernando Rizo 00:53, 14 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Absolutely right. --Air 05:56, 15 July 2005 (UTC)

 * Actually, an Oviposter (what they are called in White Dwarf) is what Genestealers do have and it just means egg layer. Animals can lay different eggs from whatever they want in a fantasy environment. SanchiTachi 01:05, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

Hybrid Tables?
I remember there being a set of Hybrid Tables out there from long ago. Basically, they listed what features (and the general appearence) of the Hybrids was as they passed from 1st Generation, straight through to Purestrain. The tables were for Human and Ork Hybrids, I believe. Would these be worth including under the Cult section? Dasleah 00:32, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

I Updated the Page
Could someone help expand the Broodlord section so the picture doesn't drop down so much into the Patriarch section. Thanks. SanchiTachi 02:11, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

London Films

London Films Productions is a British film and television production company founded in 1932 by Alexander Korda and from 1936 based at Denham Film Studios in Buckinghamshire, near London. The company's productions included The Private Life of Henry VIII (1933), Things to Come (1936), Rembrandt (1936), and The Four Feathers (1939). The facility at Denham was taken over in 1939 by Rank and merged with Pinewood to form D & P Studios. The outbreak of war necessitated that The Thief of Bagdad (1940) be completed in California, although Korda's handful of American-made films still displayed Big Ben as their opening corporate logo.

After a restructuring of Korda's UK operations in the late 1940s, London Films were made at Shepperton. One of these was The Third Man (1949). The company's film The Sound Barrier (1952) won the Academy Award for Best Sound.

More than 40 years after Korda died in January 1956, the company returned to active film-making in 1997 with Morgan Mason as the chief executive.

Golden Globe Award for Best Foreign Language Film

The Golden Globe Award for Best Foreign Language Film is a Golden Globe Award presented by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association to reward theatrically-released feature film not in the English language.

It was first introduced at the 7th Golden Globe Awards for the 1949 film year as Best Foreign-Language Foreign Film, and would return to be awarded yearly from the 1957 film year onwards; from 1948 to 1972, it existed alongside the Best English-Language Foreign Film category, which was intented for English-language films made outside the United States. The two categories were fused into Best Foreign Language Film in 1973, now rewarding any non-American films regardless of language; this was reversed in 1986 when it was renamed to Best Foreign Language Film, although this last change also made American films in non-English language eligible, such as winners Letters from Iwo Jima and Minari.

The award was originally an equivalent to the pre-existent Best English-Language Foreign Film, for English-language film made outside the United States. Following

Since the 1987 change in the criteria for this award, its eligibility criteria have been considerably broader than those for the Academy Award for Best International Feature Film; films are notably not submitted by their country, and there is not limit of one-eligible film per country as in the Academy Awards. Before 1974, the award was given only infrequently, and with several films being jointly honoured per year.

The most honored country in this category is the United Kingdom, with seven films honored, followed by Spain and France.

Eligibility criteria
Like the Academy Award for Best International Feature Film, this award does not require that an eligible film be released in the United States. The official rules for the award state that submitted films must be at least 70 minutes in length and have at least 51% of their dialogue in a language other than English, and that they be "first released in their country of origin during the 14-months period from November 1 to December 31, prior to the Awards". Films that were not released in their country of origin due to censorship qualify with a one-week release in the U.S. during the specified period.

The Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA), presenter of the Golden Globes, also does not limit the number of submitted films from a given country. This differs from the practice of the Academy Awards' presenter, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS), which limits each country to one submission per year.

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference
Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to  in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being 'minor'. The only thing that's changed is that you will no longer have them marked as minor by default.

For established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript.

Frank Gavan Duffy

Sir Frank Gavan Duffy KCMG PC KC (29 February 1852 – 29 July 1936) was an Australian judge who served as the fourth Chief Justice of Australia, in office from 1931 to 1935. His total service on the High Court of Australia was from 1913 to 1935. Prior to his judicial career, he was one of Victoria's most prominent barristers.

Early life
Duffy was born in Dublin, Ireland, on 29 February 1852, the son of Sir Charles Gavan Duffy, who was later to become a member of the Victorian Legislative Assembly, and the eighth Premier of Victoria.

He travelled to Australia with his family in 1856, but later went to England to study at Stonyhurst College in Lancashire. In 1869, Duffy returned to Australia and attended the University of Melbourne, graduating in 1872 with a Bachelor of Arts.

At this time, he began to work in the public service, and started to study law. '

Legal career
In 1874, Duffy was called to the Victorian Bar, and began practising as a barrister in 1875. Over the next few years, Duffy contributed to the second edition of Casey's Justices Manual, published in 1879, and in the same year founded the Australian Law Times. He edited this publication until 1883. Over the next twenty years, Duffy published many more works on various pieces of legislation.

Duffy was caught up in the Australian banking crisis of 1893, but over time paid back his debts. He was appointed a Queen's Counsel in 1900, and between 1902 and 1910 he lectured on contract law at the University of Melbourne. He often appeared on behalf of the Commonwealth in constitutional cases in the High Court of Australia where his name is listed in the Commonwealth Law Reports as Duffy. In 1907, Duffy became the editor of the Victorian Law Reports. In 1908, with William Ah Ket, he successfully represented James Minahan before the High Court, in a landmark decision which recognised the principle of legality for the first time in Australian common law. By 1910, Duffy was widely regarded as the most prominent Victorian lawyer, and the unofficial leader of the Victorian Bar.

Judicial career
Duffy was appointed to the bench of the High Court of Australia in 1913. Throughout his time on the bench he was referred to in the Commonwealth Law Reports as Gavan Duffy J. Seventeen years later, in 1931, when Sir Isaac Isaacs was made Governor-General, he took over as Chief Justice of the High Court. Gavan Duffy was considered largely ineffectual as a judge, let alone as Chief Justice.

As Chief Justice on the infrequent occasions he penned his own judgments they were extremely brief and he sat on less than half of the full court cases. He agreed to retire from the bench in 1935, at age eighty-three, to make way for John Latham.

He had planned to deliver a series of lectures on Australian constitutional law at Harvard University's tercentenary early in 1936, but was too ill. He died after a brief illness on 29 July 1936, at Mount St Evin's Private Hospital, Fitzroy. He was survived by his wife and three sons, among them Charles Leonard Gavan Duffy, later a Justice of the Supreme Court of Victoria.

Honours
Duffy was created a Knight Commander of the Order of St Michael and St George (KCMG) in 1929. Duffy had been made a member of the Imperial Privy Council in 1932.

Family
Duffy's son Charles Leonard Gavan Duffy served on the Supreme Court of Victoria. His half-brother, George Gavan Duffy, was an Irish politician and later (from 1936) a judge of the Irish High Court, serving as its President from 1946 until his death in 1951. His half-sister Louise Gavan Duffy was raised in France by his sisters and was an Irish nationalist involved in the 1916 Easter Rising as well as an Irish language enthusiast who founded an Irish language school for girls in Dublin.

Don't present opinions as fact
Please stop adding controversial statements to articles without backing them up and properly attributing them to their sources. It's not Ok to say "China is the oldest civilization in the world", nor is it Ok to say that the opposite is the case. I'm not arguing for or against either opinion. Rather, what should be done is to say something like "So-and-so has argued that China is indeed the oldest civilization in the world" and to give a proper citation and add it to the list of refernces. That way the opinion becomes verifiable, and people have a chance to agree on whether so-and-so did actually say that. This is much simpler and much less controversial than coming out and presenting an opinion that's not universally agreed on as fact.

Also, if you strengthen a statement the way you're tyring to do, the burden of proof is on you, that is, you have to supply the references that show that so-and-so really holds the opinion you claim they do. Simply adding a controversial opinion and essentially saying "prove me wrong" won't go over too well. --MarkSweep 12:42, 16 Jun 2005 (UTC)

 * Please do no edit any article without extensive research. I am merely stating the fact. It is a fact that China is the world's oldest CONTINUOUS civilization. It is a fact, not an opinion; remember, it is a solid fact, no matter what's your opinion on it, the fact will not alter.

 * I have already provided some of the important historians' views and the reference. If you think the fact that China is not the world's oldest continuous civilization is not true, please give me some references and historian's views. Please do not present fact as opinions, no matter what's your opinions on the fact, the fact will always be fact. -- Mimiian

The very fact that people do not agree with your additions should tell you that what you think is a factual statement is really a matter of opinion. You have not cited any sources in the article itself, only in the edit summaries.

Let me explain my objection again, since you wrote "If you think the fact that China is the world's oldest continuous civilization is not true, please give me some references and historian's views." My point is exactly that I don't have a firm opinion either way, only a firm opposition to asserting that either of those statements is universally accepted as true. I have nothing against saying "so-and-so claims that China is (or isn't) the oldest continuous civilization", if it's verifiable and relevant. But this is not a matter of fact, and the article should not represent it as fact. --MarkSweep 13:01, 16 Jun 2005 (UTC)

 * Please!!! Fact is something objective, external, and exists in its own right, fact itself is unalterable. There is fact and there is fiction, and if you cling to the fact even against the whole world, you are still right. Just because some people do not recognise the fact that China is the world's oldest continuous major civilization, it does not mean the fact is not true. No matter what people think of the fact, it is still a fact. Remember, it is not an opinion, it is a solid, unalterable fact! If you think China is not the world's oldest continuous major civilization, please tell me one civilization which is older than China and it's still existing. Remember, a fact is something cannot be altered! eg: the US attacked Iraq, it is a fact, not an opinion! -- Mimiian

One of the problems is that there is no universally accepted definition of "civilization", "major civilization" or "continuous civilization". Unless the definitions of those terms are nailed down, a statement that makes use of them cannot be factual. --MarkSweep 14:39, 16 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * I am really sorry, I do not see the definition "civilization", "major" and "continuous" have any problem in this case. It is almost universally agreed that human civilization is the way of life in a society that has advanced to the point of building cities. If there is no permanent towns or cities for a group of people, then the people is obviously a nomad group in contrast with the settled cities dwellers of civilization. In fact the world civilization is derived from Latin "civis", meaning city dweller. This is an accepted definition of civilization. If you do not agree, please give me an example where a known civilization has no cities.
 * The world "major" civilization is even more obvious. It describes the influence of this civlization and its impact on humans. A major civilization is obviously a civlization which has relatively important influence. There might be a small, unknown civilization hide in African jungle, but since it has relatively little influence on humanity, therefore it's obviously not a major civilization
 * For the word "continuous", it obviously means that the civilization is continuous and still surviving. Ealier civilizations such as Egyptian and Sumerianian are not continuous because they have already vanished from the pages of history, therefore how can something that no longer exist long ago be continuous to present day. Other earlier civilizations all have vanished or replaced by other, thus leaving behind the Chinese civilization as the world's oldest continuous civilization. This is a fact, not an opinion. If you disagree, please name one accepted civilization which is older than China and it's still existing, remember to cite historians who support your view if you can. Thank you.
 * How can you say that the Egyptians have vanished from the pages of history? Because they have been conquered? That´s wrong (at least in my opinion) They simply remained, and adapted themselves to a life in a larger empire, adopting several traits (language, religion) and of these empires and influencing these empires themselves. According to your logic someone can also say that the Chinese have also dissapeared because they have been conquered by the Mongols. In reality, both of these peoples/civilizations simply survived like the vast majority of the old civilations. Flamarande 12:56, 12 June 2006 (UTC)
 * All three terms are apparently simple and accepted. If you cannot understand any of them, you should really stop edit any article now.

What about this? "Australian Aborigines are the main indigenous people of Australia. Their ancestors probably arrived in Australia over 50,000 years ago, although this figure remains in dispute. Some historians believe people have lived in Australia for up to 100,000 years." - that would make that an older civilization - also continuous and major. This is if we are using this definition of civilization: The type of culture and society developed by a particular nation or region or in a particular epoch. --Tothebarricades 21:16, Jun 18, 2005 (UTC)
 * Tothebarricades, I am not really sure if I should laugh at you or feel sorry for your lack of education. The Australian Aborigines have never formed a distinct civilization. No scholars have ever claimed that the Aborigines formed any kind of civilization. They lack a sophisticated writing system and have no recorded writing of their history. Even more, the Aborigines do not have cities and are not an agrarian society. The "civilization" article in Wikipedia says "In the technical sense, a civilization is a complex society in which many of the people live in cities and get their food from agriculture". Clearly the Aborigines do not have any civilization according to this definition. They lack a complex society, form no cities, and is not an agrarian society. No major scholars have ever stated that Aborigines have formed any kind of civilization.
 * So, Tothebarricades, next time when you want to make a comment. Please research the topic, otherwise you will only make a fool of yourself. Thank you. --- Mimiian

Louis, Count of Soissons

Louis de Bourbon, Comte de Soissons (May 1604 – 6 July 1641) was the son of Charles de Bourbon, Count of Soissons and his wife, Anne de Montafié, Countess of Clermont-en-Beauvaisis. A second cousin of Louis XIII of France he was a prince du Sang, those considered part of the royal family. Part of the faction who opposed Cardinal Richelieu and his policy of war with Spain, he was killed leading a revolt at the Battle of La Marfée in 1641.

Biography
Born in Paris, son of Charles de Bourbon, Count of Soissons and his wife, Anne de Montafié. Louis was made governor of the Dauphiné province (1612), an office inherited at the death of his father, and later governor of the Champagne province (1631). Around 1612, he was made the Grand Master of France, the head of the royal household.

In 1636, Louis conspired with his cousin Gaston d'Orléans and the count of Montrésor with the intention to murder Cardinal Richelieu and depose the King, but the plot failed. The King's mother, Marie de' Medici, had tried as well on numerous occasions to remove the Cardinal as well as once trying to depose the King in favor of her younger son Gaston. For this she was placed under house arrest for the remainder of her life.

Taking refuge in Sedan with the Duke of Bouillon (prince of the independent principality of Sedan), Louis again conspired against Richelieu, and the Duke of Bouillon obtained the military support of Spain.

Louis's army was engaged by a royal French army under Gaspard de Coligny, Marshal Châtillon at Sedan, but Coligny was routed at the Battle of La Marfée outside of Sedan on 6 July 1641. Of the King's 11,000 force, 600 were killed, 5500 were taken prisoner, while the Count of Soissons' forces suffered nominal losses. This was due to the late slow arrival of the King's forces through muddy roads and the surprise cavalry attack from their flank from behind a hill. The Count of Soissons, however, was killed after the battle by one officer whose identity was never ascertained, possibly in the employ of Cardinal Richelieu. According to some sources, the Count died by accident while lifting the visor of his helmet with a loaded pistol, shooting himself in the head.

He was buried in the Soissons family tomb at the Chartreuse de Bourbon-lez-Gaillon in Gaillon, in the French province of Normandy. The county of Soissons was passed onto his only surviving sister Marie de Bourbon, Princess of Carignano and wife of Thomas Francis of Savoy, a famous general.

Issue

 * Louis Henri de Bourbon, bâtard de Soissons, Count of Noyers and of Dunois, Prince of Neuchâtel (August 1640 – 8 February 1703) illegitimate son of Louis and Élisabeth des Hayes. Line continues in the Dukes of Luynes family. Married Angelique Cunegonde de Montmorency-Luxembourg, daughter of François Henri de Montmorency.

Leslie Fiedler

Leslie Aaron Fiedler (March 8, 1917 – January 29, 2003) was an American literary critic, known for his interest in mythography and his championing of genre fiction. His work incorporates the application of psychological theories to American literature. Fiedler's best known work is the book Love and Death in the American Novel (1960). A retrospective article on Leslie Fiedler in the New York Times Book Review in 1965 referred to Love and Death in the American Novel as "one of the great, essential books on the American imagination... an accepted major work." This work views in depth both American literature and character from the time of the American Revolution to the present. From it, there emerges Fiedler's once scandalous—now increasingly accepted—judgement that American literature is incapable of dealing with adult sexuality and is pathologically obsessed with death.

"Our great novelists, though experts on indignity and assault, on loneliness and terror, tend to avoid treating the passionate encounter of a man and a woman, which we expect at the center of a novel. Indeed, they rather shy away from permitting in their fictions the presence of any full-fledged, mature women, giving us instead monsters of virtue or bitchery, symbols of the rejection or fear of sexuality."

Early life
Fiedler was born in Newark, New Jersey, to Jewish parents Lillian and Jacob Fiedler. "Eliezar Aaron" was his original Hebrew name. In his early years, he developed a strong connection to his grandparents. He attended South Side High School before majoring in English at New York University. After that, he attended the University of Wisconsin, from where he obtained both his M.A. in 1939, and his Ph.D. in 1941. Between 1942 and 1946 he served as a Japanese interpreter and military cryptologist in the U.S. Naval Reserve.

Career
After World War II, Fiedler continued doing research at Harvard University. He taught at many universities both abroad and in the United States. He taught at the University of Montana (then Montana State University) from 1941 to 1965. In 1964, he began teaching at the University at Buffalo (UB) where he remained until his retirement. He was offered a postdoctoral fellowship at Harvard by the Rockefeller Foundation.

Besides essays and criticism, Fiedler was also a novelist and a short story writer.

The 1990s and beyond
In the 1990s, Fiedler's output decreased and new material was sporadic, but he received many honors in this period. In 1994, Fiedler received the Hubbell Medal for his lifetime contribution to the study of literature.

In April 1995, there was a celebration conference and performance in his honor called "Fiedlerfest" at the Center for the Arts at the State University of New York at Buffalo. Several famous writers such as Allen Ginsberg, Camille Paglia and Ishmael Reed paid homage to him and his works. Although some sources wrongly attribute different dates, the series of conferences took place at the Center for the Arts at the University of Buffalo from April 29 through April 30, 1995. Considered one of the most influential figures in 20th century American cultural thought, Fiedler is the author of over 40 works, some of which have been used in many courses in American universities. The conference originated from an idea that Fiedler's friend and colleague Bruce Jackson had in 1994. The idea was that the University of Buffalo should do something to celebrate their best-known professor and literary critic while he was still alive. They asked Fiedler to name the key speakers of the conference and he selected three people he admired: Camille Paglia, Allen Ginsberg, and Ishmael Reed. The university funded the event, which also had the participation of a master Daejaeng player related to one of the Korean students in the English Department, who played in Fiedler's honor. The art theorist, feminist academic and critic Camille Paglia performed on Saturday night. On Sunday afternoon, at 4 pm, it was the turn of beatnik poet Allen Ginsberg to perform. Ginsberg was an old friend of Fiedler's and had written the poem "Uptown" about Fiedler's children after their arrival in New York, coming from Missoula, MT to start a band. He read his poems while playing a small hand-pumped harmonium from India. He was later followed by the Daejaeng performance. American poet, songwriter, novelist, playwright and essayist Ishmael Reed was the last to perform. The celebration culminated with a reception in the Center for the Arts Atrium at UB.

Golden Globe Award for Best Original Score

The Golden Globe Award for Best Original Score is a Golden Globe Award presented by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA), an organization of journalists who cover the United States film industry, but are affiliated with publications outside North America, since its institution in 1947.

History
Since the 5th Golden Globe Awards (1947), the award is presented annually, except from 1953 to 1958. The nominations from 1947 and 1948 are not available. The first Best Original Score award went to Max Steiner for his compositional work on Life with Father.

John Williams is the artist with the most nominations (24); those resulted in 4 wins. Dimitri Tiomkin had the same number of wins, but out of only 5 nominations. Other notable achievers include Maurice Jarre (10 nominations, 4 wins), Alan Menken (5 nominations, 3 wins), Hans Zimmer (15 nominations, 3 wins), Justin Hurwitz (3 nominations, 3 wins) and Alexandre Desplat (11 nominations, 2 wins).

Artists like Jerry Goldsmith (9 nominations) and Michel Legrand (7 nominations) were nominated several times but never received the award. Dimitri Tiomkin, Alan Menken and Howard Shore are the only composers to win two consecutive awards. Additionally, Dimitri Tiomkin received Special Achievement Awards for his services to film music in 1955 and 1957, as did Hugo Friedhofer in 1958. The most recent recipient of this award was Ludwig Göransson for the film Oppenheimer.
