Alter Bridge

Alter Bridge is an American rock band from Orlando, Florida. The band was formed in 2004 by vocalist and rhythm guitarist Myles Kennedy, lead guitarist Mark Tremonti, bassist Brian Marshall and drummer Scott Phillips. After their former band Creed became inactive in 2003, Tremonti and Phillips formed a new band with former bandmate Marshall and new member Kennedy; Alter Bridge was formally unveiled in January 2004, months before Creed's official breakup in June.

After signing with Wind-up Records, Alter Bridge released their debut album One Day Remains in August 2004, much of which was written by Tremonti the previous year. The album received mixed reviews but reached No. 5 on the U.S. Billboard 200 and was certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America in November 2004. The band's second album followed in 2007 with the more positively-reviewed Blackbird, which marked the beginning of a long partnership between the band and producer Michael Baskette. The album reached No. 13 in the U.S. and was certified silver by the British Phonographic Industry.

Following continued activities with the members' other bands and side projects, Alter Bridge released AB III in 2010. It received critical acclaim and commercial success on Roadrunner Records, with its lead single "Isolation" topping the Billboard Mainstream Rock chart. Alter Bridge released Fortress to further acclaim in 2013, as the band's members continued splitting their time between various projects. The Last Hero followed on Napalm Records in 2016, becoming the band's first album since its debut to reach the top ten of the Billboard 200, and its first to reach the top five of the UK Albums Chart. Their sixth studio album, Walk the Sky, was released in 2019, and was followed by Walk the Sky 2.0 in 2020. The band's seventh album Pawns & Kings was released on October 14, 2022.

As of 2023 Alter Bridge has sold over 5 million records worldwide.

2004–2005: One Day Remains
Alter Bridge lead guitarist and founder Mark Tremonti, bassist Brian Marshall, and drummer Scott Phillips were members of the rock band Creed with lead vocalist Scott Stapp, achieving significant mainstream success in the late 1990s and early 2000s. After releasing two successful albums, My Own Prison (1997) and Human Clay (1999), Marshall left Creed in 2000, which was followed by the release of their third album, Weathered in 2001. The band became inactive in 2003 following the conclusion of a controversial tour. That year, Tremonti began writing new material with plans of forming a new band with Phillips and Marshall. Being fans of Myles Kennedy's former band, The Mayfield Four, they invited him to join as their new lead vocalist. They named the new band Alter Bridge, after an actual bridge near Tremonti's home on Alter Road in Detroit, and subsequently began recording their debut album.

Citing creative differences and increasing tension between Stapp and the other band members, Creed officially broke up in June 2004. Coincidentally, Alter Bridge released their debut single "Open Your Eyes" on June 11, 2004. The band members felt as if Creed had "run their course" and were determined to focus on their future with their new singer. Alter Bridge's debut album, One Day Remains, was released on August 10, 2004 by Wind-up Records and received mixed reviews. Produced by Ben Grosse (who has also produced albums by artists such as Filter, Fuel, and Sevendust), the album sold 750,000 copies worldwide and achieved gold status. It peaked at No. 5 on the Billboard charts for fourteen weeks. After "Open Your Eyes", two more singles were released from the album in 2005: "Find the Real" and "Broken Wings". Also, partially due to the fact that the album was almost finished by the time Kennedy joined the band, it is the only Alter Bridge record that does not feature Kennedy as a guitarist, although he did play guitar on several songs on the album's accompanying tour. The music was composed completely by Tremonti, who had also written most of the lyrics by himself, though Kennedy wrote or at least co-wrote the lyrics for about half of the remaining songs.

Several songs from One Day Remains established an affiliation with WWE. Most notably, "Metalingus" was adopted by wrestler and Hall of Famer "The Rated R Superstar" Edge as his entrance theme in 2004, using it ever since besides a brief spell in 2022 where it was replaced by another Alter Bridge track, "The Other Side". Alter Bridge would later appear with Edge in a backstage segment on an episode of WWE Raw in 2005. An edited version of "Open Your Eyes" was used in the video game Madden NFL 2005. Alter Bridge released a rare instrumental song called "Ahavo Rabo Taco Salad" for Total Guitar magazine in 2005. It was solely a Mark Tremonti song originally, but the rest of Alter Bridge soon got involved. A song called "Save Me" was included on the soundtrack for the 2005 Marvel film Elektra. The soundtrack for another 2005 Marvel film, Fantastic Four, also featured an Alter Bridge song, "Shed My Skin". That same year, the band released a four-song EP called Fan EP as a promotional CD in Europe.

Alter Bridge's relationship with Wind-up Records, who did not share the band's vision, began to deteriorate when band members began hearing rumors of the record label deciding not to release singles or promote the album as promised. The band had been asking to be released from the label shortly after the release of One Day Remains, but their request was consistently declined. Sometime before 2006, Alter Bridge & Wind-up Records were "finally able to negotiate terms acceptable to both sides". All recording, publishing, and merchandising agreements were finally terminated. The true nature of the agreement was later described by Mark Tremonti in a LoudWire interview as "being screwed over", where he revealed that Alter Bridge had to “buy out” their agreement for an undisclosed sum, for which they were still paying off. However, Alter Bridge continued to face difficulties, including criticism for disbanding Creed, pressure to reform Creed, and numerous false reports of a Creed reunion, in addition to some critics describing Alter Bridge's music as sounding like "Creed with a different singer." Despite Creed later reforming in early 2009, Tremonti responded to these claims by stating that "Creed will never exist as a band again."

2007–2008: Blackbird
In 2007, Alter Bridge signed a record deal with Universal Republic Records. Tremonti said of the band's new material, "I think it's the best work we've ever done." Alter Bridge's second album, Blackbird, featuring the successful singles "Rise Today" and "Watch Over You", was released on October 9, 2007. "Watch Over You" was featured in VH1's Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew in 2008 and its music video featured clips from the series. Another version of the song featuring Cristina Scabbia of Lacuna Coil is available in the United Kingdom. Blackbird received very positive reviews from critics, and currently holds an average of 9.4 out of 10 on Ultimate Guitar Archive. The album also featured the critically acclaimed title track, the guitar solo of which would later be lauded by Guitarist by reaching No. 1 on their 2011 list of the greatest guitar solos of all time.

The band embarked on a successful world tour in support of Blackbird, recording their December 7, 2008 show at the Heineken Music Hall in Amsterdam, Netherlands, for a live DVD titled Live from Amsterdam. A single disc version was sold exclusively at venues during the Creed reunion tour in 2009 and on Amazon.com. Released to extremely positive reviews, the DVD sold "thousands and thousands" of copies as opposed to the projected "hundreds" that Amazon expected to sell, reached No. 1 on Amazon's "Bestsellers in Music Videos & Concerts", and remained there for several weeks. A Blu-ray Disc version and a deluxe edition released in stores in North America on January 11, 2011.

Alter Bridge took a break in 2009 following Creed's reunion tour and new album. While Tremonti, Marshall, and Phillips were touring with Scott Stapp as Creed, Kennedy worked on his first solo album and began working extensively with Guns N' Roses and Velvet Revolver lead guitarist Slash, and later touring with Slash throughout 2010 and 2011 as his lead vocalist.

2010–2012: AB III
Alter Bridge began the recording process of their third album from February through May 2010. On July 17, 2010, Billboard reported that Alter Bridge had signed with Roadrunner Records and that the band would embark on a spring tour with Godsmack in 2011. While the latter report was later denied by the band, Alter Bridge revealed the title of their new album, AB III, along with the track listing on their official website in early August. Roadrunner Records confirmed that the band had signed with them and gave the release date of their new album as October 8, 2010. The first single "Isolation" was released on Roadrunner's website on September 6, 2010. The song became the band's most successful song, reaching No. 1 on active rock radio and on the Hot Mainstream Rock Tracks chart, a first for Alter Bridge. AB III was released in Australia and Germany on October 8, 2010 and in the United Kingdom on October 11, 2010 by Roadrunner Records and in North America on November 9, 2010 on the band's own vanity label, Alter Bridge Recordings, via EMI. The album debuted at No. 17 on the Billboard 200. The music video for "Isolation" premiered on Noisecreep on December 6, 2010. On January 11, 2011, the band finally released its long-awaited live album and concert film, Live from Amsterdam, in stores. Also, "I Know It Hurts" was later released as the second single, in Australia only, on January 21, 2011. "Ghost of Days Gone By" was released as the next single on April 18, 2011, followed by "Wonderful Life" on June 5, 2011 in the United Kingdom.

The band advertised that AB III would be much "darker" than and a lyrical departure from their previous albums, and the album was confirmed to be constructed as a loose concept album. AB III was met with "overwhelming critical acclaim" from professional reviewers upon its release, with MusicRadar calling it "one of the guitar albums of the year." Artistdirect gave AB III a perfect score and called it a "masterpiece". Also, a tribute album to Alter Bridge titled String Tribute to Alter Bridge, which features instrumental classical arrangements of various Alter Bridge songs, was made available on March 8, 2011. On October 25, 2011, Alter Bridge released a special edition of AB III titled AB III.5, which includes three bonus tracks and an hour-long documentary titled One by One.

The band started touring in support of AB III in the fall of 2010 in the United Kingdom with Slaves to Gravity appearing, followed by a tour of the United States with Taddy Porter and Like a Storm. In the spring of 2011, Alter Bridge toured the United States again, this time with Black Stone Cherry and Like a Storm. Alter Bridge performed at several European festivals in the summer of 2011, including the Rock am Ring and Rock im Park festivals, the Nova Rock Festival,  the 2011 Download Festival, the 2011 Hellfest Summer Open Air, and several others. Alter Bridge performed a free concert on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on the ABC television network on April 25, 2011. The band also co-headlined the second annual Carnival of Madness Tour in summer 2011 with Theory of a Deadman, with supporting acts Black Stone Cherry, Adelitas Way, and Emphatic. The tour was extended until January 2012, when the band played select dates in Australia, including the Soundwave Festival. The band released a series of webisodes produced by DC3 Music Group detailing their tour. In addition, a second concert film titled Live at Wembley was recorded on November 29, 2011, at Wembley Arena, the band's largest headline show up to that point. It was released worldwide on March 26, 2012, and it will later be released in 3D.

2013–2014: Fortress
In 2012, the instrumental members of Alter Bridge turned their attention to their other band, Creed, embarking on a tour. Tremonti emphasized that he is always writing music for both Creed and Alter Bridge. Myles Kennedy turned his attention to his project with Slash, releasing Apocalyptic Love (2012), while Mark Tremonti released a solo album All I Was (2012). Phillips joined a new band called Projected with Sevendust members John Connolly and Vinnie Hornsby, and former Submersed guitarist Eric Friedman, releasing an album called Human.

Members of Alter Bridge met in December 2012 to discuss the next album and the band's future tour. They entered the studio in January 2013 to begin recording the new album while touring intermittently with their respective side projects. Recording continued in late April 2013 and lasted till July 2013 with their producer Michael "Elvis" Baskette. The album was confirmed to be called Fortress. On July 31, 2013, Alter Bridge revealed album cover and track listing for Fortress, and the first single, "Addicted to Pain", was officially released on August 12, 2013. Mark Tremonti said that the band tried to "challenge ourselves to get the most out of the arrangements" and that the album is a "high energy record". The band streamed the album in its entirety on the Metal Hammer website as a UK exclusive on September 23. Fortress was released everywhere by September 30, 2013 except in the US, where it was released on October 8. The album received critical acclaim, with Allmusic saying "Fortress is a driving album that not only doesn't feel tired or stale, but is a monster of an album that makes a pretty solid case for being some of Alter Bridge's strongest and most dynamic work to date." Their second and third singles "Cry of Achilles" and "Waters Rising" performed relatively well at the charts, achieving 27 and 15 place at US Hot Mainstream Rock Tracks.

A headline tour of the UK and Europe in support of Fortress with Halestorm and Shinedown commenced on October 16 in Nottingham. Two weeks prior to this the band played a single show in the US, at the House of Blues in Orlando. Alter Bridge played at the Australian music festival, Soundwave in 2014 as an Australian leg of the tour, and also headlined several concerts in fall 2014, including Louder Than Life Festival in Louisville, and continued through the end of the month. They selected California Breed to open dates for them on their October run.

In January 2014, Alter Bridge had planned to release a box set titled Alter Bridge X to commemorate the band's 10th anniversary. The 27-disc collection included all four albums, both concert films, exclusive uncut interviews, every music video, previously unreleased songs and live footage, an autographed poster, and a coffee table book about the history of the band. Only 3,000 copies were made; however, the project experienced significant delays and was not released until September 2014.

In March 2014, a Live in Milan CD and DVD package, similar to that of Live in Amsterdam and Live at Wembley documenting a live show from their recent Fortress Tour, was set for release in June 2014 but later scrapped due to sound issues.

2016–2017: The Last Hero
In January 2015, the band stated that they would not tour that year but release a new album in 2016. In January 2016, after members of the band had finished working on other projects throughout 2015, Alter Bridge officially began recording their fifth studio album. The record would again be produced by Michael "Elvis" Baskette. The band started selling memorabilia items and goods such as lyrics sheets, used guitar straps, postcards, drumsticks and guitars used for recording the album through Fret 12, a company associated with Tremonti. The band joined Disturbed and Breaking Benjamin on a U.S. tour in the summer of 2016. Tremonti said in May that the band was aiming for a September 2016 release for the new album. Regarding the sound of the album, Tremonti said, "I think it's a good mixture between Fortress and Blackbird; it covers all bases." In June 2016, Alter Bridge signed with Napalm Records for the international release of the album, and later announced they would headline a 2016 United Kingdom tour with Volbeat, Gojira, and Like a Storm. On July 6, 2016, the band revealed the new album's title as The Last Hero; it was released on October 7, 2016. They embarked on a US and Canada Tour in January and February 2017. After that the band toured Australia and New Zealand in early April and returned for three shows in May. In June they embarked on a European Tour, headlining Rock am Ring and Rock im Park, Download Festival and Hellfest. The band played in Ireland for the first time ever in June 2017 and Argentina for the first time in September.

Alter Bridge released their third live album, Live at the O2 Arena + Rarities, on September 8, 2017, which includes a compilation of bonus tracks from previous albums, including two previously unreleased songs that were recorded in 2004. The band played two shows at the Royal Albert Hall on October 2–3, 2017, alongside the 52-piece Parallax Orchestra as part of another European Tour, with the shows recorded and released on CD/Vinyl/DVD/Blu-Ray release on 7 September 2018. They played 14 dates in the US throughout November and December with support from All That Remains as part of the final installment of the tour supporting The Last Hero.

2019–2021: Walk the Sky
In June 2019, Alter Bridge announced a UK arena tour with Shinedown, Sevendust and The Raven Age beginning in December 2019, and that its sixth studio album, Walk the Sky, would be released on October 18, 2019. "It's kinda like a John Carpenter movie — this old-school synth-wave kind of vibe", Mark Tremonti explained in a 2019 interview with Kerrang!, discussing Walk the Sky. "Somebody might hear the record and have no idea that was intended, but for a batch of songs, I tapped into some old loops that I either created or found randomly online, and worked with them in the background to inspire me to go in a different direction. I loved working like that. We challenge ourselves to not repeat ourselves and find new inspiration to add a different layer to what we do. It's particularly challenging when you've had so many records, but when I showed Myles what I was thinking, he absolutely loved it and was on board right away."

Walk The Sky 2.0 (Deluxe) was released November 6, 2020, which included additional bonus live tracks and a new studio track "Last Rites".

2022–present: Pawns & Kings
In an interview with the 97.7 QLZ radio station, Mark Tremonti revealed that Alter Bridge's seventh studio album would be called, Pawns & Kings. It was released on October 14, 2022.

In an interview with Ian Danter of Planet Rocks, Tremonti spoke about the seventh album. "We are very proud of it", He said, "Our producer is absolutely in love with the record. I think if you're a fan of Alter Bridge, you will dig this record. We are very happy with it." Tremonti was then asked about if there will be heavy riffs in the new album with him responding, "There are some heavy riffs on there. And it's funny because the heaviest riffs on the record are from Myles Kennedy."

On July 18, 2022 the lead single, "Pawns & Kings", was released with the follow-up single, "Silver Tongue", released on August 1, 2022.

Musical style
Alter Bridge's music is often characterized and described as "heavy, yet melodic." Their music has been listed under several genres including hard rock,     heavy metal,   alternative metal, progressive metal, alternative rock, and post-grunge, with elements of progressive rock, thrash metal, and classic rock.

Alter Bridge's music is co-written by Kennedy and Tremonti and arranged by Alter Bridge; the band's lyrics are written primarily by Kennedy, although Tremonti wrote most of the lyrics and all of the music on One Day Remains. The lyrics on the first two Alter Bridge albums mainly touch on hope and overcoming regret, sadness, grief, loneliness, pain, and addiction. The subject matter on their third release, AB III, is noticeably darker, with lyrical themes mostly based on struggling with faith and a loss of innocence.

Often recognized for their live performances, the band generally does not perform in larger venues such as arenas and amphitheaters outside of the UK. Instead, they regularly play smaller venues such as House of Blues, as was their intention from the start. Myles Kennedy said in an interview with Artistdirect, "We're definitely a live band. That's what it's all about for us. We make records so we can go out and play for people." The band has been joined on stage by several surprise guests, including Slash, Paul Reed Smith, Wolfgang Van Halen, and Eric Friedman, and several other notable musicians, such as Eddie Van Halen, Jimmy Page, and John Paul Jones, have been reported to have attended an Alter Bridge concert. Alter Bridge's live performances are generally praised.

Activism
In early 2010, Alter Bridge joined the Wheelchair Foundation, DC3 Music Group, and other artists including Scott Stapp (vocalist of Creed), Godsmack, David Archuleta, and New Kids on the Block to assist in the "Plane to Haiti" project, a relief effort to help the victims of the 2010 Haiti earthquake. The band also joined the fight against cancer in 2011 by helping the "Play for Life" organization raise funds for City of Hope Medical Center, a leading research center for cancer.

Awards and accolades
In October 2010, the band's song "Ties That Bind" from Blackbird was listed by Total Guitar as the 41st greatest guitar song of the decade, with Ultimate Guitar Archive naming AB III the seventh best album of 2010 that December. In March 2011, the dual guitar solo in the critically acclaimed song "Blackbird" was named the greatest guitar solo of all time by Guitarist, ahead of tracks by artists such as Led Zeppelin, Guns N' Roses, Van Halen, Pink Floyd, and others. Myles Kennedy responded by saying that he was "a little uncomfortable with the idea that it was voted the 'best,'" but he and Mark Tremonti both stated that they were honored. Later, in May 2011, the band defeated Avenged Sevenfold, Linkin Park, Three Days Grace, and other artists in Fuse TV's "Battle of the Fans" poll. The tournament peaked at 7.2 million votes.

Alter Bridge's first album, One Day Remains, received mixed reviews upon its initial release, with many criticizing its sound as being too similar to that of Tremonti, Marshall, and Phillips' former band, Creed. Despite this, it was certified gold by the RIAA on November 8, 2004 and remains the band's only RIAA-certified album. Since then, the band's subsequent albums have received general acclaim. The band's 2009 live album and concert film, Live from Amsterdam was also well received; it was originally released via Amazon.com, where on October 22, 2009, it rose 15,000 spots on Amazon's "Bestsellers in Music Videos & Concerts" chart in just eight hours, rising ahead of artists such as Michael Jackson and Bon Jovi to No. 1 where it remained for several weeks. This was done with no official promotion or record label support.

Navya Nair

Navya Nair (born Dhanya Veena; 14 October 1985) is an Indian actress who has appeared predominantly in Malayalam cinema along with a few Kannada and Tamil language films.

Early and personal life
Navya Nair was born Dhanya Veena on 14 October 1985 in Muthukulam, a village near Haripad in Alappuzha, Kerala. Her parents are Mr. Raju, a telecom employee, and Veena, a school teacher. She performed well in school before focusing on a film career. She learned dance at a young age, trained in classical dance and has won the Kalathilakam title as a student of Bethany Balikamadam Girls High School, Nangiarkulangara, Haripad in the Alappuzha District School Youth Festival. She is a graduate in BA English.

She married Santhosh Menon, a Mumbai settled Malayali, on 21 January 2010 and the couple have a son, Sai Krishna born the same year. Malayalam film Director K. Madhu is her Maternal Uncle. Director Sibi Malayil preferred Navya as her screen name because he believed Dhanya was inappropriate for an actress.

Debut and success (2001–2005)
Navya Nair started her film career with Ishtam in 2001, opposite Dileep directed by Sibi Malayil. The film was a commercial success for its sheer humour and fresh subject. Critics describe her as the surprise of the film. She then acted in Mazhathullikkilukkam (2002) with Dileep, a commercially successful film. She then appeared in Kunjikoonan (2002), which also became a box office hit.

Her next release was the 2002 Malayalam film Nandanam directed by Ranjith and starring Prithviraj Sukumaran. Her portrayal of Balamani, an orphan who works as a maid and is an ardent devotee of Lord Guruvayurappan, received critical acclaim. She bagged several awards for her role, notably receiving her first Kerala State Film Award for Best Actress. She soon became a household name. Over the years, she has been remembered for her role as Balamani. Her other releases of the year were Kalyanaraman, alongside Dileep and Kunchacko Boban which became a commercial success and Chathurangam starring Mohanlal which was a failure at the box office.

In 2003, Vellithira, Ammakilikkoodu with Prithviraj Sukumaran and Gramophone starring Dileep and Meera Jasmine were box office failures. The soundtracks to Vellithira and Gramaphone were popular. However, this year's Pattanathil Sundaran with Dileep was a hit. She played the role of the wife of a ration shop owner who accepted a job as a clerk in the Secretariat against her husband's desires.

In 2004, she played a minor role in Sethurama Iyer CBI. She then had two releases Jalolsavam by Sibi Malayil and Chathikkatha Chanthu by Rafi Mecartin, starring Jayasurya, with the latter becoming a box office success. She played Vasumathi who seeks out the man who sent her some letters accidentally, but she believes he did so on purpose. Her encounters with Salim Kumar in the movie are still popular. She made her Tamil debut with Azhagiya Theeye, generally received positive reviews. However, the film was a commercial failure.

In 2005, she appeared in Immini Nalloraal, Deepangal Sakshi and Sarkar Dada. All of which were critical and commercial failures. Her other release of the year, Pandippada directed by Rafi Mecartin became commercially successful at the box office. She then appeared in the Tamil film Chidambarathil Oru Appasamy. S. R. Ashok Kumar of The Hindu described her as "the beleaguered wife who steals the show." Her portrayal of Saira Hussain in Dr. Biju's directorial debut Saira and her role as Karunya in Alberrt Antoni's Kanne Madanguka earned her the second Kerala State Film Award for Best Actress.

Expansion into Tamil and Kannada cinema (2006–2014)
She had three Tamil releases in 2006 Pasa Kiligal, Amirtham, and the National Award-winning Aadum Koothu. Her Malayalam films at this time, Kalabham, Pathaaka, Ali Bhai and Kichamani MBA received negative reception. Her next film Maya Kannadi which Cheran directed and starred in, received mixed reviews overall but praise for her role. She appeared in Sila Nerangalil directed by Jayaraj which opened to a positive reception and was a box office success.

She made her Kannada debut opposite Darshan in Gaja, which was a box-office hit. Films like SMS, Calendar, and Banaras were poorly received, but her performances were praised nonetheless. Her Kannada film, Namyajamanru (2009) alongside Vishnuvardhan opened to positive reviews from critics. A critic from The Times of India described her as "Navya Nair at her best." She starred in Bhagyada Balegara opposite Shiva Rajkumar, receiving praise for her performance. She appeared in the anthology film Kerala Cafe (2009).

In 2010, her films were Drona and Yugapurushan with Mammootty, the Tamil film Rasikkum Seemane and Sadgamaya with Suresh Gopi. She then appeared in Boss with Darshan, but the film could not repeat the success of their previous collaboration. Scene Onnu Nammude Veedu was her last Malayalam film before going on hiatus.

High council (Latter Day Saints)

In Mormonism, a high council is one of several different governing bodies that have existed in the church hierarchy in many denominations in the Latter Day Saint movement. Most often, the term refers to a stake high council in a local stake, but other high councils include the standing Presiding High Council in Zion, and the "travelling high council", better-known today as the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles.

History of high councils
On February 17, 1834, Joseph Smith, the founder of the movement, created a presiding high council at church headquarters in Kirtland, Ohio. This body consisted of twelve men and was headed by the First Presidency. The original members of the high council in Kirtland were:

 * Joseph Smith, Sr.
 * John Smith
 * Joseph Coe
 * John Johnson
 * Martin Harris
 * John S. Carter
 * Jared Carter
 * Oliver Cowdery
 * Samuel H. Smith
 * Orson Hyde
 * Sylvester Smith
 * Luke S. Johnson

This high council took on the role of chief judicial and legislative body of the local church and handled such things as excommunication trials and approval of all church spending. This high council became subordinate to the high council of Zion, which was organized in Jackson County, Missouri. A presidency was also called to head the high council of Zion. The members of this presidency and high council were:

 * David Whitmer (president)
 * William W. Phelps (assistant president)
 * John Whitmer (assistant president)
 * Christian Whitmer
 * Newel Knight
 * Simeon Carter
 * Calvin Beebe
 * William E. McLellin
 * Solomon Hancock
 * Thomas B. Marsh
 * Lyman Wight
 * Parley P. Pratt
 * Orson Pratt
 * John Murdock
 * Levi Jackman

Later, when other high councils were established in newly formed stakes of the church, the high council of Zion (first Kirtland, then Far West, Missouri and finally Nauvoo, Illinois) took on a role of "presiding" over the lesser high councils. (Cases tried in the high councils of outlying stakes were regularly appealed to the high council of Zion.) Most Latter Day Saint historians view the high council of Zion as distinct from a stake high council, as there is no "stake" at the "center place" of the tent of Zion. During Smith's lifetime, high council members were ordained high priests, but not given any priesthood keys.

In 1835, Smith created an additional "traveling high council" of twelve men to oversee the missionary work of the church. Like many early church leaders including the Three and Eight Witnesses of the Book of Mormon and, initially all church elders, the members of this traveling high council were known as "apostles." Later, as this council grew in importance, it became known as the Council or Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, and other church leaders ceased to be called apostles.

Thomas B. Marsh was the original president of the traveling high council which, in practice, was initially subordinate to the high council of Zion. For example, in 1838, when vacancies arose in the traveling high council, it was the presiding high council at Far West which voted on and filled the vacancies. Later, as the traveling high council evolved and began to be known as the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, it acquired equal status with the presiding high council, and both were subordinated to the First Presidency. When the high council of Zion was dissolved after the church members were expelled from Missouri, the high council organized at the new church headquarters in Nauvoo, Illinois, where it functioned as the presiding high council of the church, overseeing appeals from high councils in outlying stakes.

After the 1844 succession crisis, high councils developed differently in the various denominations of the Latter Day Saint movement.

High councils in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints
Each stake in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, the largest Latter Day Saint denomination, has a high council consisting of twelve high priests. The stake high council assists the presidency of the stake in approving the calling of stake leaders and some ward leaders, conducting membership councils, and communicating to and instructing leaders of wards and branches in the stake.

Immediately after joining the club, Kahlenberg suffered a hip injury which kept him out until October 2009. While on the sidelines, he was dropped from Wolfsburg's 25-man squad for the UEFA Champions League. Kahlenberg made his Bundesliga debut for Wolfsburg in the 3–3 draw with Mainz on 31 October 2009. However, since returning from injury, Kahlenberg struggled to make his progress into the first team at Wolfsburg, having failed to make an impact and found his playing time from the substitute bench. This led to him contemplated his future at the club, as it could affect his chances of being chosen in the FIFA World Cup. Despite this, he went on to make twelve appearances in all competitions. Following this, Kahlenberg, along with Karim Ziani, was informed by the club that they are no longer needed.

Having started out on the substitute bench at the start of the 2010–11 season, Kahlenberg was featured more often in the first team for the next two months, under new manager Steve McClaren. On 2 October 2010, he soon scored his first goal for the club, in a 1–1 draw against Borussia Mönchengladbach. By November, however, Kahlenberg found his playing time, mostly from the substitute bench.

A month after his suspension, Kahlenberg went on trial with English Premier League side Blackburn Rovers, but did not earn a contract. On 14 May 2011 he returned to the first team in the last game of the season against 1899 Hoffenheim, starting a match and played 57 minutes before being substituted, in a 3–1 win. At the end of the 2010–11 season, Kahlenberg went on to make seventeen appearances and scoring once in all competitions.

Ahead of the 2011–12 season, Kahlenberg was considering leaving Wolfsburg as a result of lack of first team opportunities, but ended up staying at the club.

In November, Magath announced that Kahlenberg, along with Patrick Helmes, would not be needed at the club. By the time he was loaned out to Evian, Kahlenberg made no appearances for Wolfsburg.

After a loan spell at Evian, Kahlenberg returned to Wolfsburg's pre–season training ahead of the 2012–13 season. However, he continued to remain in the club's transfer list and wasn't given a squad number. Kahlenberg was given a number 38 shirt and made his first appearance of Wolfsburg, starting the whole game, in a 0–0 draw against FC Augsburg on 14 September 2012. In a follow–up match against Greuther Fürth, he set up the club's equalising goal, in a 1–1 draw. After the match, Manager Magath praised his performance.

Kahlenberg had been linked a move to Saint-Étienne.

He made his debut for Evian on 14 January 2012, coming on as a substitute for Cédric Barbosa in the 61st minute, in a 3–1 loss against Dijon.

On 17 March 2012, he scored his first goal for the club, in a 2–0 win over against his former club, Auxerre. After the match, Kahlenberg is expected to join Evian on a permanent deal at the end of the season. On 1 May 2012, he scored his second goal for the club, in a 2–2 draw against Montpellier. In an interview with the Sporten, Kahlenberg says if he never moved to Evian, then he would dead and buried. At the end of the 2011–12 season, Kahlenberg went on to make nineteen appearances and scoring two times in all competitions.

However, his hopes of permanent move to the club was apparently broken down after Wolfsburg's reluctance to discuss a fee, resulting in its cancellation. Once again, he was linked with a move to Saint-Étienne after the club rekindled his interests signing him. However, according to Kahlenberg, the move never materialised.

Brøndby

On 21 August 2013, Kahlenberg signed a four-year contract with his former club Brøndby after being away from Denmark for eight years. Upon joining the club, he expressed his delight to return to Brøndby, calling it a "special place for him" and was given a number seven shirt.

He captained his first match for Brøndby, starting a match and played 62 minutes before being substituted, in a 3–1 loss against Copenhagen on 1 December 2013.

After missing a match due to suspension, Kahlenberg returned to the starting line–up against Nordsjælland in the last game of the season and set up two goals, as Brøndby drew 2–2. His performance throughout the 2013–14 season led the club's supporters to name him the best player in the league. In his first season back at Brøndby, he went to make twenty–four appearances and scoring two times in all competitions.

Ahead of the start of the 2014–15 season, it was announced that Kahlenberg was named as Thygesen's successor as Brøndby's new captain.

This was followed up by scoring his second goal of the season, in a 5–0 win against Vestsjælland. Reflecting in the first half of the season, Kahlenberg said: "We have a high top level, and on our good days we are perhaps the best playing team in Denmark. But we have also seen that we have a too low bottom level and have been too easy to kiss. So that is our biggest challenge. The most disappointing have been the outcomes we have had in three or four matches, where the bottom level has simply been too low. We have, of course, been disappointed in ourselves. Also on behalf of the club and the supporters. We have felt a little stupid." However, he suffered a hip injury that eventually sidelined for the rest of the 2014–15 season. It was announced that Kahlenberg would be out somewhere between four and five months following surgery. In his second season at the club, he went on to make twenty–four appearances and scoring two times in all competitions.

The 2015–16 season continued to see Kahlenberg recover from a hip injury and made a full recovery and returned to training by late–August.

He was involved in a number of matches for Denmark's qualifying matches for the UEFA Euro 2008, as they failed to qualify for the tournament after finishing fourth place. Despite this, scored his second goal for Denmark, in a 3–0 win against Iceland on 21 November 2007.

After a lay-off from the senior national team, Kahlenberg was recalled for the 2010 World Cup qualifiers. In his second start of the qualifiers, he scored the winning goal against rivals Sweden, which helped Denmark qualify for the main tournament. In May 2010, Morten Olsen announced that Kahlenberg would be part of the final squad of 23 participating in the FIFA World Cup in South Africa. He made his tournament debut against Netherlands, starting a match and played 73 minutes before being substituted, as Denmark lost 2–0 on 14 June 2010. Kahlenberg appeared two more times in the tournament, as the national side were eliminated in the group stage.

Following the World Cup tournament, Kahlenberg was called up to the Denmark squad two months later. He scored his first national team goal, in a 1–0 win against Iceland on 7 September 2010. Kahlenberg later made one more appearance for Denmark by the end of the year. After a two-year absence, Kahlenberg was called up to the national team squad for Euro 2012. He made his first Denmark in two years, starting a match and played 65 minutes before being substituted, in a 3–1 loss against Brazil on 26 May 2012. This was followed up by making another appearance against Australia on 2 June 2012, coming on as a second-half substitute, as the national team lost 2–0. However, Kahlenberg did not play in the tournament and was placed on the substitute bench, as Denmark were eliminated in the group stage.

After a one and a half year absent, on 3 March 2014 Kahlenberg was called up to the Denmark squad against England but did not play. On 22 May 2014 he made his first appearance for the national side in two years, coming on as a 79th-minute substitute, in a 2–2 draw against Hungary. Four months later on 7 September 2014, Kahlenberg scored his fifth goal for Denmark, in a 2–1 win against Armenia. The next two years saw him play four more times in the national team's qualifying matches, as Denmark failed to qualify for the UEFA Euro 2016 following a 4–3 defeat on aggregate. Following this, he was never called up to the national team again despite being available.

Coaching career
After announcing his retirement from professional football, he moved to coaching. He was hired as a youth coach at HIK in March 2018. After two years in HIK, on 28 May 2020, Kahlenberg was appointed assistant coach of Denmark's U-16 national team. He left the position in July 2024.

Personal life
In August 2009, Kahlenberg married his long–term girlfriend, Anne Zeuthen Jensen. They have three children, daughters Karla and Alma and son, Max.

In addition to speaking Danish, Kahlenberg speaks German, having learned the language from school, and French, from his time at Auxerre. In September 2003, he hired Per Steffensen as his new agent in attempt to move abroad. He attended Falkonergårdens Gymnasium. Early in his football career, Kahlenberg quickly earned a fan club called 'Tommy Crew'.

In December 2004, Kahlenberg was in Thailand when Indian Ocean earthquake and tsunami took place, but escaped unharmed. Throughout his professional football career, he lived in Denmark, France and Germany.

On 5 March 2020, Kahlenberg tested positive for the novel coronavirus disease called COVID-19 during the current pandemic, after having been infected at a birthday party in Amsterdam. This forced Brøndby, Lyngby and Ajax to place some of their players and coaches, who had recently met with Kahlenberg, into quarantine. Kahlenberg described his symptoms as similar to a flu and he was placed in home quarantine. Peter Madsen, another retired Danish football player who attended the same Amsterdam birthday party as Kahlenberg, also tested positive for the coronavirus. On 12 March, Kahlenberg was declared fully recovered.

IPodLinux

iPodLinux is a μClinux-based Linux distribution designed specifically to run on Apple Inc.'s iPod. When the iPodLinux kernel is booted it takes the place of Apple's iPod operating system and automatically loads Podzilla, an alternative GUI and launcher for a number of additional included programs such as a video player, an image viewer, a command line shell, games, emulators for video game consoles, programming demos, and other experimental or occasionally unfinished software.

The project has been inactive since 2009, but its website is still online. Further development of free and open source software for iPods have continued with the Rockbox Project, zeroslackr, and freemyipod, which have largely supplanted iPodLinux. Some third party installers are still available.

Basic structure
iPodLinux in essence consists of a Linux kernel built from μClinux sources using the uClibc C standard library with driver code for iPod components (or reverse engineered drivers where available). It includes userland programs from μClinux and/or BusyBox, a UNIX-style file system (which can be created within HFS+ formatted iPods, or an ext2 partition on FAT32 formatted iPod), and the Podzilla GUI (and its modules). Apple's proprietary iPod OS in contrast uses an invisible boot loader and is based on an ARM processor kernel originally written by Pixo, and the iPod Miller Columns browser program, a GUI written by Apple and Pixo using the Pixo application framework, and other firmware and component drivers written from manufacturer's reference code to support the standard behavior Apple wanted the iPod to have.

Features
Besides the kernel, iPodLinux features as a primary component podzilla and podzilla2, applications which provide:

 * An iPod-like user interface
 * Video playback with sound
 * Support for AAC, MP3 and basic OGG playback (4G & 5G Music Player Daemon malfunctions, but can be fixed).
 * Many games, including TuxChess, Bluecube (Tetris clone), Chopper, StepMania (a Dance Dance Revolution clone) and more.
 * Recording through audio jack at much higher quality than Apple's firmware
 * Ability to play the games Doom and Doom II (and presumably any Doom Total Conversion; Chex Quest for instance)
 * Color scheme support
 * Ability to run many emulators, such as iBoy (Nintendo Game Boy Emulator), iNES (Nintendo Entertainment System Emulator), iDarcNES (port of the multiple system emulator DarcNES), iMAME (port of Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator), and iGPSP (Game Boy Advance emulator).

History
The bootloader for the 4th generation iPod was extracted by Nils Schneider, a German computer science student. Previous software methods to extract the necessary bootloader no longer worked. Bernard Leach had previously discovered how to operate the piezo buzzer inside the iPod. Schneider was able to use his program with some modifications to make a series of clicks for each byte of the new iPod's bootloader. The extraction process took 22 hours to complete and required Schneider to construct a soundproof box to prevent outside interference with the process.

Server transition
On June 11, 2008 the organization's website was suspended and replaced with a redirect to a blank page. The server had its services restored incrementally. On October 1, 2008 the iPodLinux.org DNS address was updated and the server was online again by October 5, 2008. On June 22, 2009 the server was pulled offline again. The server was back online again on September 8. In September 2010 the server went offline again and has not got online again yet. Alexander Papst, one of the developers, has posted a mirror of the site at ipodlinux.wiki. In 2015, the site was offline. However, in 2019, it has gone online, with embedded text advertisements.

Compatibility
According to the iPodLinux wiki, "developers have succeeded in getting [the following features] to work- it does not imply that the feature is ready for widespread use."

As of August 5, 2006, only the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd generation iPod are officially supported by iPodLinux, although newer generations are also partially compatible. The iPodLinux project does not plan support for the iPod shuffle due to the lack of a GCC compiler for the shuffle's DSP57000 core, as well as the fact that the iPod shuffle lacks a screen. While later generations work fine for many uses of iPodLinux, not all features work; these later generations will not be officially supported by the project until most or all features from the earlier iPods work on them. Installers are in the process of being made. As of now, there is Installer 2.3 for Microsoft Windows or Linux which can install on any generation iPod (except for the iPod shuffle and iPod nano 2nd generation). As of April, 2008, iPodLinux does not work on the new iPod firmware included with the second and third generation iPod nano or the 6th generation iPod Classic, and installer 2 cannot be used to install iPodLinux on 5.5th generation iPod. In addition to that, the much spoken about audio recording feature currently does not work on the latest ipodlinux/zeroslackr builds. In ipodlinux, an under development message is given under recording, while in zeroslackr, recording is not displayed at all.

Arguably one of the project's more notable accomplishments is its video player, released months before rumors about Apple's Video iPod began to spread. This video player only plays uncompressed AVI files, which are basically just a series of bitmap formatted frames with an audio overlay that commonly loses sync with the video output. A new compression technique called MoviePod, released in 2006, enables people to put more video content on their iPod. This function continues to be developed and is a useful function for users of older iPod (especially nano users that, with the help of iPodLinux, can get an extremely small media center that can be held in the palm of the hand).

podzilla 2, the second generation of podzilla, and commonly known as pz2, has superseded the original version of podzilla. It included several new features, most notably modularity; users can install new applications without recompiling all of podzilla. This version is the only working set of Podzilla official that will run on 5.5G iPods.

Daniel Jensen

Daniel Monberg Jensen (born 25 June 1979) is a Danish former professional footballer. A central midfielder, he was known for making good passes in the final third of the field. He played more than 50 matches and scored three goals for the Denmark national team, and represented his country at the 2004 European Championship. He is the younger brother of a retired former Denmark international player Niclas Jensen.

Early career
Born in Copenhagen, Daniel Jensen started playing football at B93 in the secondary Danish 1st Division. In his time at the club he made 44 appearances scoring 9 goals. He was called up for Danish under-19 national team in September 1995, and made his senior debut for Boldklubben in the fall 1996. He played a total 16 matches and scored three goals for the under-19 national team, before he was sold to Dutch club Heerenveen in July 1998.

Heerenveen
While at Heerenveen, he played 19 games and scored two goals for the Danish under-21 national team. In February 2002, he made his Danish national team debut under national coach Morten Olsen.

After more than 100 league matches for Heerenveen, his contract ran out in the summer 2003, and he left the club on a free transfer.

Murcia
Jensen sought a move to a club in the La Liga championship, and signed a one-year contract with newly promoted team Real Murcia in August 2003. Murcia ended last in the 2003–04 La Liga season, and Jensen was reported on his way to a number of German clubs. He was called up to the Danish team for the 2004 European Championship (Euro 2004) in June 2004. He began the Euro 2004 tournament as a part of the Danish starting line-up, and played full-time in the first two matches against Italy and Bulgaria. He was replaced by Christian Poulsen during Denmark's third match, and saw the quarter-final defeat to the Czech Republic from the bench. Back from Euro 2004, Murcia used a clause in Jensen's contract to prolong it for another two years. The extension hindered Jensen from leaving the club on a free transfer, and he was sold to German club Werder Bremen for €1 million in July 2004.

Werder Bremen
In August 2006, he was a part of the German League Cup winning Werder Bremen team. In January 2008, Jensen signed an extension to his contract with Werder Bremen, that would keep him at the club until 2011.

On 11 May 2011, Jensen was released from his contract a month early due to comments made about the coaching staff after being left out of the squad against Borussia Dortmund. "There was a discussion between him and coach Thomas Schaaf this morning and he has been released with immediate effect," sports director Klaus Allofs said in a statement, "He does not play any role in our planning any more."

Later career
In December 2011, he joined Italian Serie A club Novara on trial, in an attempt to get a new contract. In January 2012, Jensen signed a contract with Novara that kept him at the club until 2013.

Personal life
Jensen's older brother Niclas was also a professional footballer. Like Daniel, Niclas also represented Denmark at international level and played in the Bundesliga.

A World Without Thieves

A World Without Thieves  is a 2004 Chinese comedy action drama film directed by Feng Xiaogang and starring Andy Lau, Rene Liu, Ge You, Wang Baoqiang and Li Bingbing. The film is an adaptation of a 1999 novelette of the same title by Zhao Benfu. The original story is moderately different from the film adaptation. The film was first released in Shanghai, China on 5 December 2004. It clinched the 2005 Golden Horse Award for Best Screenplay Adaptation.

The film was released in Hong Kong with Cantonese dubbing provided by Lau for his own role, Anthony Wong for the role of Uncle Li, and Chapman To for the role of Sha Gen.

The plot is centered on a naïve village boy who does not believe in the existence of thieves. Returning home on board a train with his savings, he soon becomes the target of many thieves. The film explores the theme of the fundamental human goodness and also addresses humorously the issue of rampant thievery on public transport in Mainland China.

Plot
The story is set primarily on a train bound inland from Tibet. Sha Gen ("Dumbo" in the U.S. version, played by Wang Baoqiang), a naïve village boy working as construction worker in Tibet, was returning home to get married. Refusing to believe that thieves exist in the world, Sha Gen insists on carrying his five years of savings worth ¥60,000 ($8,400 USD ) with him rather than use remittance. Sha Gen also brazenly shouts his earnings in a crowded street. As such, he has attracted the attention of Wang Bo (Andy Lau) and Wang Li (Rene Liu), who are lovers as well as highly skilled professional thieves. Wang Bo wants to steal the money as a last hit to end their career, but Wang Li, pregnant with their child and moved by Sha Gen's innocence, decides to protect the boy.

The situation is further complicated when a small gang of thieves led by Hu Li (homophone of fox (狐狸 Húli) in Chinese), also known as Uncle Li (Ge You), boards the train. Uncle Li instructs his followers, among them Xiao Ye (Li Bingbing) and Four-Eyes (Gordon Lam), to refrain from doing a job on the train. Tempted by the huge amount of cash, however, some members disobey and strike, only to be robbed by Wang Bo moments later. This exposes Wang's skills to Uncle Li, who becomes highly interested in recruiting him. When Wang declines, the contest between the Wangs and Uncle Li's gang quickly escalates, with Sha Gen still completely unaware of the danger surrounding him.

While the two sides tussle, however, a plainclothes police detective (Zhang Hanyu) has been silently watching and awaiting his chance. As the police force eventually closes in, Uncle Li attempts to make off with Sha Gen's money but is confronted by Wang Bo, who has finally promised to lend his help to Wang Li to protect Sha Gen's innocence. The two engage in a violent hand-to-hand combat. Although Wang succeeds in retrieving the money and giving it back, he is seriously injured in the fray, and subsequently dies. Uncle Li and his gang are all apprehended as the train pulls into station, but the police officer lets Wang Li go on compassionate grounds. Wang Li returns to Tibet sometime later, and prays to the heavens in a show of penance.

 * Wang Baoqiang as Sha Gen (C: 傻根, P: Shǎ Gēn, "Foolish Root," "Dumbo" in the U.S. version)
 * You Yong as Thief Number Two (S: 二当家, T: 二當家, P: Èr Dāngjiā) or "Fatty" (胖子), follower of Uncle Li

 * Zhong Ping as plain-clothes policewoman
 * Chen Zhihui

Reception
The film recorded ¥100,000 in box office earnings on its premier night in Beijing. Within ten days of release the total box office earnings in Mainland China exceeded ¥80 million. This figure rose to ¥100 million on the last day of 2004. This, together with a comparable box office achievement by the Stephen Chow production Kung Fu Hustle, released within the same month, has been hailed as a new milestone for the Chinese film industry. However, the film did not do as well in the Hong Kong market.

Almost two months after the film's release, China Post voiced dissatisfaction over the film's misguiding information on the administrative charges for remitting money through China Post. In a scene, Sha Gen claimed that remitting ¥60,000 requires an administrative charge of ¥600. China Post verified that it would only require ¥100 and said it would not rule out seeking damages.

International Biblical Online Leadership Training
Seems like a vanity article, the place doesn't even offer their own courses, they re-sell other college's courses. Spinboy 04:37, 5 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * It was created under inauspicious circumstances, at "Internatonal" Biblical Online Leadership Training (!), and I noticed it after the creator salted an entirely inappropriate wikilink at distance education. However, it checked out as legitimate and notable and I wrote out the adspeak and added what little I quickly picked up. They appear to offer not Vanguard courses, but their own courses for credit through Vanguard. The limited set, in Canada, of small quasi-universities that teach towards a larger uni's post-secondary degree are all absolutely notable. That it's new and, rarely for Canada, private, religious and distance learning makes it more notable. I'd like to dig again and take part in expanding this article over time. Keep. Samaritan 04:59, 5 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Btw Spinboy, you added to the article that they are "for-profit". In the Canadian context, that would add even more notability, but I can't confirm it elsewhere. (.com means nothing, and "Inc." is a corporate title for non-profits too.) Samaritan 05:05, 5 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * There's nothing to say it's not-for-profit either. Spinboy 05:53, 5 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * That's not enough to write "for-profit" in an encyclopedia; I reverted it, but it would be interesting to follow up on. If it had an article to go in. :) Samaritan 06:00, 5 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment. No evidence of notability, and it probably isn't.  How many Vanguard graduates have these courses on their transcripts?   For that matter, how notable is Vanguard?   The fact that it is "for-profit" in Canada makes it exceptional, not notable.  --BM 15:34, 5 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * At the very least, the information should merge/redirect to Vanguard College, but at this moment that's one of the last post-secondary institutions in Canada that hasn't been created. Samaritan 17:39, 5 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Then delete it, and re-direct it if that article is ever created. Spinboy 21:52, 5 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, article provides no evidence of encyclopedic content and given that, it's an ad for some sort of hybrid religious correspondence course. Unhelpful. Wyss 22:05, 5 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, article does not establish notability, advertisement. Megan1967 02:30, 6 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Whether it is for-profit or not-for-profit makes no difference. It is blatantly an ad, and the company lacks any notability beyond the fact of it's existence.  If they sold rice-crackers, would we be debating this?  HowardB 09:06, 8 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, spam. Edeans 05:25, 9 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. -- AllyUnion (talk) 05:29, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)

"Dramedy"?
Why is this categorized as "dramedy"? It's a sitcom. It's a comedy. There are dramatic elements, but no more than something you'd find in "Cheers." Mseyers 18:52, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

 * Sitcoms have a laugh track. This is a dramedy... it's a hybrid of both genres.  Wikipedia's sitcom article stresses the importance of laugh tracks within the genre, all the way back to I Love Lucy. --Madchester 23:06, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

 * Arrested Development, The Larry Sanders Show, Sports Night, both the American and UK versions of The Office, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Garth Merenghi's Darkplace, Malcolm in the Middle, Strangers with Candy are all listed as comedies. None of these examples have laugh-tracks, and in some cases, contain far more dramatic elements than Undeclared ever did during its brief run. So either Undeclared is a comedy, or you should go to each of the aforementioned shows and edit their classifications accordingly. And maybe you should look at the sitcom article you directed me to:

 * "A recent trend in sitcom production has been to dispense with laugh-tracks and with live studio audiences, thereby allowing (or forcing) the television audience to determine where the jokes are. NBC hits My Name is Earl and The Office as well as cult hits Arrested Development and Scrubs have been at the forefront of this trend." Mseyers 23:33, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

Many media outlets have referred to the show as a dramedy:

 * The Trades - Undeclared review
 * IGN - Undeclared: The Complete Series
 * Ads show questionable motives in tough times

and so forth.

The best compromise is to list both genres.

--Madchester 23:49, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

Fair enough. It's so not a big deal, and sorry if I came off as belligerent. I'm still not sure why you edited my earlier addition about Paul Feig only having directed one episode, as opposed to "several." As far as I know, the one episode he directed was "Oh, So You Have a Boyfriend?" "Full Bluntal Nugety" is on the dvd... but is that a separate episode? It never aired, and the official website's insert lists it as "2b" rather than its own separate number, and it only has two or three different scenes. I don't think that Feig's contribution to the show can be described as having "several episodes" to his credit if it amounts to one actual episode, and one alternate cut that's only available on the dvd. Mseyers 00:22, 30 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Oh, that's probably a mistake from the Rollback function. I simply wanted to revert from your last edit, but the software automatically reverts all edits made by the same user. --Madchester 00:28, 30 July 2006 (UTC)

Freaks and Geeks references
I was watching the episode "Hell Week" where the Theta Delta Zeta frat dudes vandalize their place, after Lloyd wakes up and the camera pans, you can see they wrote "Greeks not Freaks" with spray paint. It might not be an intended reference, but it doesn't really fit in with anything as I don't recall anyone calling them freaks or denying they were greeks, maybe someone with the DVD can check the commentary or something. But basically I thought we should see if there are any other possible references to Freaks and Geeks.

Okay, I bought the DVD and in the commentary, Samm Levine reveals that it is indeed an intended reference, just in case anyone cares. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.97.120.37 (talk) 15:35, 6 August 2008 (UTC)

Kennoway

Kennoway is a village in Fife, Scotland, near the larger population centres in the area of Leven and Methil. It had an estimated population of in. It is about three miles inland from the Firth of Forth, north of Leven. This position gave it importance in the old days while travelling by coach, for the stage road ran through Kennoway from the ferry at Pettycur, through Ceres, and on to St Andrews. The street known as "The Causeway" was also added to part of the Fife Pilgrim Way in 2019 due ties with St Kenneth, the Causeway being part of one of the designated conservation areas by Fife Council

Place-name history
Kennoway derives from Scottish Gaelic, though the exact meaning is obscure. The name was first recorded as Kennachin in 1160. The first element 'kenn' is from the Gaelic ceann meaning 'head', 'top' or 'end'. The second and final elements, 'ach' and 'in' appear to both be suffixes indicating location. Taken together, the name appears to mean 'head- or end-place, place at the head or end'.

Church History
On record by the third quarter of the twelfth century when it was granted to the priory at St Andrews by Merleswain son of Colban, the dedication to St Kenneth(1) suggests that the church of Kennoway might have considerably greater antiquity. Merleswain's charter, datable to 1172x1178, granted the church with all its associated teinds and oblations, together with various lands held at that time by Simeon the parish priest.(2) His grant was confirmed by Bishop Richard of St Andrews before 1178 and subsequently by Merleswain's son and successor, Merleswain.(3)  Bishop Richard's successor, Hugh, confirmed the canons’ possession of the church in a general confirmation of 1178x1184, naming Richard as the donor, and in 1198/9 Hugh's successor Roger de Beaumont issued a further confirmation.(4)  Papal confirmations were secured with regularity from the first mention in a bull of Pope Alexander III c.1174 down to Innocent IV in 1246.(5)  Royal confirmation was obtained from King William between 1189 and 1195 in a general confirmation of the priory's lands and rights.(6)

All of these grants and confirmations down to the 1240s, despite regular repetition of the gifts of the church, kirklands, teinds and oblations, appear only to have involved the patronage of the church. Indeed, Pope Innocent IV's 1246 bull stated that it was the advowson of Kennoway that the priory held.(7) Before 1233, however, a charter of William Comyn, earl of Buchan, had confirmed all of the priory's rights in the church, just as Merleswain had granted it to St Andrews, the grant being confirmed by his wife, Countess Margery, in her own charter.(8) This re-grant appears to have been the catalyst which enabled the priory to secure greater control of Kennoway, Bishop David de Bernham in 1240 confirming it to them in proprios usus with suitable provision for a vicar.(9)

It was as a vicarage that the church is recorded in the accounts of the papal tax-collector in Scotland in 1275. It appears first as the vicarage of Kenmanthin (the church is usually named Kennachin in the St Andrews records), paying 10s in tax.(10) There are very few later medieval references to the church or its clergy, one vicar, John Lawson, being recorded in 1429–1430.(11)  In 1512, on the erection of the College of St Leonard in St Andrews, the vicarage of Kennoway was annexed to the new collegiate foundation.(12)  The attempt, however, was unsuccessful and at the Reformation while the parsonage remained annexed to the priory, valued at £160, the vicarage perpetual valued at £30 was in the hands of one John Row.(13)
