Rocky Mountain Horse

The Rocky Mountain Horse is a horse breed developed in the state of Kentucky in the United States. Despite its name, it originated not in the Rocky Mountains, but instead in the Appalachian Mountains. A foundation stallion, brought from the western United States to eastern Kentucky around 1890, began the Rocky Mountain type in the late 19th century. In the mid-20th century, a stallion named Old Tobe, owned by a prominent breeder, was used to develop the modern type; today most Rocky Mountain Horses trace back to this stallion. In 1986, the Rocky Mountain Horse Association was formed and by 2005 has registered over 12,000 horses. The breed is known for its preferred "chocolate" coat color and flaxen mane and tail, the result of the relatively rare silver dapple gene acting on a black coat, seen in much of the population. It also exhibits a four-beat ambling gait known as the "single-foot". Originally developed as a multi-purpose riding, driving and light draft horse, today it is used mainly for trail riding and working cattle.

Breed characteristics
Rocky Mountain Horses stand between high. Any solid color is accepted by the registry, but a dark brown color called "chocolate" with a pale, "flaxen" mane and tail is preferred. This coloration is the result of the relatively rare silver dapple gene acting on a black base coat. Although uncommon, this gene has been found in over a dozen breeds, including the Rocky Mountain Horse. Minimal white markings are accepted by the registry, although leg markings may not extend above the knee. The physical characteristics are somewhat variable, due to the disparate breeds that created the Rocky Mountain Horse. The Rocky Mountain Horse is known by enthusiasts for its hardiness and ability to withstand winters in the mountains. It is also praised for its good nature and affinity for humans.

Rocky Mountain Horses have the highest risk of any breed for the genetic ocular syndrome multiple congenital ocular anomalies (MCOA), originally called equine anterior segment dysgenesis (ASD). MCOA is characterized by the abnormal development of some ocular tissues, which causes compromised vision, although generally of a mild form; the disease is non-progressive. Genetic studies from 2008 have shown that the disorder may be tied to the silver dapple gene, as most horses diagnosed with MCOA carry the gene. A 2017 report by Jessica Fragola and Leandro Teixeira in Investigative Ophthalmology & Visual Science entitled "Microphthalmia with multiple ocular abnormalities in 11 horses: a novel syndrome" noted a novel ocular syndrome in horses characterized by bilateral microphthalmia and aphakia associated with multiple ocular abnormalities, and given the predominance of anterior segment lesions, a defect during the embryological development of the lens placode was suspected.

The breed exhibits a natural ambling gait, called the single-foot, which replaces the trot seen in a majority of horse breeds. Both gaits are an intermediate speed between a walk and a canter or gallop; ambling gaits are four-beat gaits, whereas the trot is a two-beat gait. The extra footfalls provide additional smoothness to a rider because the horse always has at least one foot on the ground. This minimizes movement of the horse's topline and removes the bounce of a two-beat gait, caused by a moment of suspension followed by the jolt of two feet hitting the ground as the horse shifts from one pair of legs to the other. The value of an intermediate speed is that the horse conserves energy. More than thirty horse breeds are "gaited," able to perform a four-beat ambling gait, and some can also trot. Thus, a Rocky Mountain Horse, with rider, can use the single-foot to cover rough ground at around 7 mph and short stretches of smooth ground at up to 16 mph. The faster speed is known as the rack. In comparison, the average medium trot speed is 6 to 8 mph.

History
Eastern Kentucky is known for its gaited breeds, created through a mixture of Spanish horses from the southern United States and English horses from the North. American Saddlebreds, Tennessee Walking Horses and Missouri Fox Trotters also originated in the same general geographic area, from the same mixing of Spanish and English blood. Rocky Mountain Horses have a similar history to the Kentucky Mountain Saddle Horse, and together are sometimes called "Mountain Pleasure Horses". The Rocky Mountain Horse originated in eastern Kentucky from a foundation stallion brought to the Appalachian Mountains from the Rocky Mountains around 1890. Brought to the area as a colt, oral histories state that the "Rocky Mountain Horse", as he was known, possessed the preferred chocolate color and flaxen mane and tail found in the breed today, as well as the single-foot gait. He was used to breed local saddle mares, and due to the small area in which he was bred, a local strain of horse originated.

This foundation stallion produced a descendant, named Old Tobe, who became the more modern father of the Rocky Mountain Horse breed. Old Tobe was owned by a resident of Spout Springs, Kentucky named Sam Tuttle. For most of the 20th century, Tuttle was a prominent breeder of Rocky Mountain Horses, and helped to keep the strain alive during the Great Depression and World War II. After World War II, despite declining horse populations in the US, Tuttle kept his herd, and continued to use Old Tobe as a breeding stallion. Tuttle held the Natural Bridge State Park concession for horseback riding, and used Old Tobe for trail rides in the park and for siring additional trail horses, the latter until the stallion was 34 years old. Old Tobe died at the age of 37. The presence of the single-foot gait makes it possible that the breed is in part descended from the Narragansett Pacer, a breed known for passing its gaited ability on to other American breeds.

In 1986, the Rocky Mountain Horse Association was created to increase population numbers and promote the breed; there were only 26 horses in the first batch of registrations. Since then, the association has, over the life of the registry, registered over 25000 horses as of 2015, and the breed has spread to 47 states and 11 countries. In order to be accepted by the registry, a foal's parentage must be verified via DNA testing. Horses must also, after reaching 23 months of age, be inspected to ensure that they meet the physical characteristic and gait requirements of the registry. The Rocky Mountain Horse is listed at "Watch" status by the American Livestock Breeds Conservancy, meaning that the estimated global population of the breed is fewer than 15,000, with fewer than 800 registrations annually in the US.

The breed was originally developed for general use on the farms of the Appalachian foothills, where it was found pulling plows and buggies, working cattle and being ridden by both adults and children. Today, it is still used for working cattle, as well as endurance riding and pleasure riding. The breed's gait and disposition make it sought out by elderly and disabled riders. Each September, the Kentucky Horse Park hosts the International Rocky Mountain Horse Show.

Seaforth railway station

Seaforth railway station is a suburban railway station in Gosnells, a suburb of Perth, Western Australia. It is on the Armadale line which is part of the Transperth network, and is 22.6 km southwest of Perth station and 7.8 km north of Armadale station. The station opened on 4 May 1948 with low level platforms. High level platforms were added in 1968. The station consists of two side platforms with a pedestrian level crossing. It is not fully accessible due to steep ramps and a lack of tactile paving.

Services are operated by the Public Transport Authority. Peak services reach seven trains per hour in each direction, whilst off-peak services are four trains per hour. The station is one of the least used ones on the Transperth network, with just 136 boardings per day in October 2017. Since November 2023, the station has been temporarily closed for construction of the Victoria Park-Canning Level Crossing Removal Project and the Byford rail extension.

Description
Seaforth station is along the South Western Railway, which links Perth to Bunbury. The northern 30.4 km of this railway, between Perth and Armadale, is used by Armadale line suburban rail services as part of the Transperth network. The line and the station is owned by the Public Transport Authority (PTA), an agency of the Government of Western Australia. Seaforth station is located between Gosnells station to the north and Kelmscott station to the south, within the suburb of Gosnells, Western Australia. The station is between Albany Highway to the east and Seaforth Avenue to the west, 22.6 km, or a 25-minute train journey, from Perth station, and 7.8 km, or a 10-minute train journey, from Armadale station. This places the station in Transperth fare zone three.

Seaforth station consists of two side platforms which are approximately 100 m long, enough for a four-car train but not a six-car train. The only way to cross the tracks is at a pedestrian level crossing at the southern end of the station. Two car parks with 41 bays in total are on Seaforth Avenue. Seaforth station is not fully accessible due to the ramps to the platforms being too steep and a lack of tactile paving.

History
After a campaign by the South-East Gosnells Progress Association, the station opened on 4 May 1948, although at the time, all it had were low level platforms and no name. Later that month, the Gosnells Road Board passed a motion that the name "Seaforth" be suggested to the Western Australian Government Railways (WAGR) after the name of a local estate. When WAGR sought approval for the name from Canberra, they were reluctant to approve the name as it was used for stations in all other Australian states. The station had since become colloquially known as "Woop Woop". Seaforth was eventually approved though in April 1949.

In 1968, high level platforms were constructed.

Services
Seaforth station is served by Armadale line services operated by the PTA. Since 20 November 2023, the station has been temporarily closed for construction of the Victoria Park-Canning Level Crossing Removal Project and the Byford rail extension, which require that large sections of the Armadale line's track be rebuilt to be elevated. The line goes between Perth station and Armadale station. Armadale line services reached seven trains per hour during peak, dropping down to four trains per hour between peaks. At night, there were two trains per hour, dropping to one train per hour in the early hours of the morning. Apart from at night and on Sundays/public holidays, most train services followed the "C" stopping pattern, which skips Burswood, Victoria Park, Carlisle, Welshpool and Queens Park stations. There are also two "B" stopping pattern services which ran during the afternoon Armadale-bound. Those services were the same as the "C" pattern except they stop at Queens Park. Starting at night, trains stoped at all stations. On Sundays and public holidays, half of all trains are "C" pattern trains and half are all stops trains.

On Seaforth Avenue is a pair of bus stops for route 907, the rail replacement bus service. On Albany Highway is a pair of bus stops for route 220, which runs along Albany Highway from Perth to Armadale.

In the 2013–14 financial year, Seaforth station had 51,887 boardings, making it the least used station on the Armadale and Thornlie lines. On an average weekday in October 2017, the station had 136 boardings, making it the least used Transperth station. The weekend average number of boardings was 170 in October 2018, making it the second least used Transperth station after Success Hill station. In 2018, City of Armadale Mayor Henry Zelones said that several hundred hectares of vacant land nearby had been set for high density development, which would increase patronage.

Alexander Kinloch Forbes

Alexander Kinloch Forbes (7 July 1821 – 31 August 1865) was a colonial administrator in British India.

Early life
Forbes was born in London on 7 July 1821 to John Forbes-Mitchell (1786-1822) of Thainston and Ann Powell (m. 1809 d. 1861). He was the youngest among six siblings. He was christened on 9 August 1821 at St. Mary, St. Marylebone, London. He was educated at a school in Finchley. He articled to George Basevi, an architect, for eight months but later joined a college Haileybury as he was appointed to Bombay Civil Service by Sir Charles Forbes in 1840. He left it in 1842 and arrived in Bombay, India in November 1843.

Administrative career
Forbes was appointed in 1842 to the Civil Service of the East India Company, later moved to Bombay in 1843. He spent his initial two and half years as Assistant Collector of Ahmednagar and Khandesh. Later he was appointed as Assistant Judge in Ahmedabad in November 1846 where he noted the absence of literary society. He served in different departments in Gujarat such as First Assistant Collector of Ahmedabad and Political Agent to Mahi Kantha until he went home in March 1854. During this period he collected material which was later published as Ras Mala in 1856.

He went back to England in 1854 and returned at the end of 1856. He was appointed as Assistant Judge at Surat and later, in 1858, appointed to the same post at Khandesh. He returned to Gujarat and applied for the vacant Political Agency of Kathiawar. He was turned down but later moved to Kathiawar in September 1859 to subdue the Indian rebellion of 1857 by the Vaghers. The rebellion subdued by March 1860 and he returned to Surat as the Acting Judge. He was appointed Secretary to the Government in March 1861.

He accepted a post in Sudder Court which made him one of the first six Judges of the Bombay High Court in August 1862. He served there until his death in 1865. He also held the honorary post of Vice Chancellor of the University of Bombay. The A. Kinloch Forbes Gold Medal was awarded for proficiency in law at LL.B. Examination of the university.

Literature
Forbes was introduced to Indian languages and literature through the works of William Jones and was inspired to learn Indian languages. So after moving to Ahmedabad, he began to learn Gujarati language first from Rao Saheb Bhogilal Pranavallabh (1818–1889), and then from Dalpatram, a Gujarati poet. He came into contact with Dalpatram through Bholanath Divetia in 1848. Dalpatram taught him Gujarati while Forbes encouraged him to write in Gujarati. They became close friends. He inspired Dalpatram to write Laxmi Natak published in 1849, the first play in Gujarati, based on Greek drama Plutus.

On 26 December 1848 he started the Gujarat Vernacular Society in Ahmedabad, which contributed to a literary renaissance in Gujarati. The fund of Rs 9601 was raised from locals, Baroda State and British officers. The society started the first public library, first school for girls, first periodical, first newspaper and first literary magazine of Gujarat. He was the president of Andrews Library in Surat in 1850 and founded Gujarati Sabha in Bombay in 1865. Gujarati Sabha was later renamed Farbas Gujarati Sabha after him. He organized conclave of Gujarati poets in 1852 at Idar State. Dalpatram's Farbesvilas was an account of these conclave.

Forbes also had a deep interest in archaeology, ancient monuments and manuscripts, which made him intensely interested in the old archaeological and historical remains of Gujarat. In 1856, he published Ras Mala in two volumes which documented the history and chronicles from 8th century to arrival of British and folk literature of Gujarat as well as an historical account of the place and people he came to know during his stay in Gujarat.

He also translated Dalpatram's essay Bhoot Nibandh as Demonology and Popular Superstitions of Gujarat.

Death
Forbes died in Poona (now Pune, Maharashtra, India) on 31 August 1865 after a brief illness. Dalpatram composed Farbes viraha, a Gujarati elegy in his memory.

Personal life
Forbes married Margaret-Moir Forbes-Mitchell (1825-1 November 1904), daughter of Henry David Forbes-Mitchell of Bawlgownie, in Bombay on 25 March 1846. They had six children; Edward Esme Forbes (1855-1920), Emmeline Maria Elizabeth Forbes, Margaret Theodora Lawrence Forbes (d. 1939), John Fraser Forbes (1847-1887), Henry David Erskine Forbes (1849-1920), and Alexander Abernethie Forbes (b. 1851).

Parmelia, Western Australia

Parmelia is a southern suburb of Perth, Western Australia, located in the City of Kwinana.

Parmelia is one of the Kwinana suburbs named after a ship. Parmelia was the first ship to arrive in June 1829 bringing settlers to establish the new colony at the Swan River in Western Australia. Its passengers included the new Governor and his wife, James and Ellen Stirling.

Chisham Avenue is the main residential street which runs through the suburb. It features an array of homes built during the 1970s which were once home to the managers for BP's oil refinery industrial operations and company executives.

The suburb is close to schools, public parks, and a new shopping centre which is currently being rebuilt and renovated by new owner Woolworths. The list of parks includes Hunt Park, Peace Park, Morrit Park, Brandon Mews Park, Oakfield Garden POS, Bournan Heights POS, Barney Park and Skottowe Park.

There is a recquatic centre which features a gym, swimming pool, spa and sauna, and sports courts for basketball, indoor soccer and other sports. The Kwinana Recquatic is embarking on a $6,000,000 refurbishment project which is set to re-launch the centre as Kwinana's premier fitness and recreation facility.

Parmelia is a family orientated suburb with many young families and retirees.

The Metronet project will see the rail line through Parmelia and upgrades to the Kwinana railway station boost liveability in the area. Federal funding for the project was received in May 2017.

Property developer, the Meridian group has engaged with the City of Kwinana to design and build detached houses, townhouses, villas and apartments in Parmelia. Construction has begun and a row of double storey houses and townhouses are currently undergoing construction.

Parmelia is at the centre of a $340m city centre revitalisation. The redevelopment includes a $22m library and resource centre, $7.5m youth space, the new Admiral Hotel and a revamp of the Kwinana Marketplace Shopping Centre. The suburb also has some of the most extensive parklands and natural bush reserves in the state.

The Kwinana Adventure Park is opposite the Kwinana Marketplace shopping centre. It was built by the City of Kwinana at a cost of $5.2 million, and features 11,000 sqm of play space, making it one of the largest public playgrounds in Western Australia.

The suburb was also home to Australian supermodel and actress Megan Gale, the brand ambassador for the up-market department retail chain company David Jones.

Cambox removals
yeah, we all know they don't belong and need to be removed, but it has been shown time and time again that MNH just reverts with  "rv vandalism"  every time someone does. Until the arbitration thing has finished, would you consider leaving them, but changing them to the less obtrusive camtiny entries, as It seems he doesn't revert when they are changed to those, but if someone removesd it completely he reverts back to the large box always..... once the arbitrtion has been completed I am certain that we shall be able to remove them in relative peace... - Xgkkp 01:41, 11 Jun 2004 (UTC)

Right, I know what you mean, (and I've seen some comment on his talk page where he says to put them on as many pages as possible) but the way I see it, a ban is probably coming from the arbitration process (and a longer one probably, as the previous didn't work). if he's not there to instantly revert, the removals can be made in peace. Perhaps after, looking what pages link to the camboxes and going from there. - 02:01, 11 Jun 2004 (UTC)

Meningitis Mixup
Wow... here less than a week and I already violated the NPOV. My bad.

The serogroup/niche thing is only a hypothesis at the mo, although one people are working on, so with any luck there should be some evidence one way or the other soon. Anyway, I edited the article to make it clear that it's only been postulated, but there's no evidence either way as yet. I hope it meets with your approval! If not, I can fiddle it some more, or you can if you think you've got the gist (gist=hypothesis currently being tested). It was really only intended as an illustrative example.

For your delectation and delight, though, the book I read it in is "Modelling Epidemics" by Paddy Farrington. ISBN 0749256605, page 53. Not that I would expect you to look it up! Just trying to back myself up!

Thanks for pulling me up on that. I'll be more careful in future. --Viki 20:09, 26 Aug 2004 (UTC)

Thank you for the reverts; he also vandalized the talk page for the article in a similar manner, and it's very reassuring to know someone out there (unlike him) recognizes that it's not the right way to pursue discourse.

Your edits on Parsi religion
That's a bunch of bull. If the Muslims are so oppressed by the Hindus, how come there are 100 million of them in India and none in Pakistan. First of all, the alleged oppression was done by nationalist leaders like Nehru who care more about being the first prime minister of India than caring for Hindus. Nehru was a nominal Hindu and didn't care about Hinduism as Jinnah cared about Islam. If Hindus were so intolerant, there would be no Parsi, Muslims, and Jews in India. Secondly, Hinduvta or Hindu nationalism is not Hinduism and does not represents Hinduism.(see discussion)

I can agree with you about not putting in Hinduism because this is a Zorastain article. Are you Muslim? You seem to ignore likewise Muslim oppression against Hindus (which is far more than alleged Hindu oppression) Secondly, Buddhism was not so tolerant as you suggest. For ages, when Buddhism was a state religion, devotional Hinduism was in decline. Only with the rise of the Advaita movement and bhakti movement, did Hinduism arise. Also Sri Lankan Buddhists have persecuted Hindu Tamils even today.

So Learn more about Indian history before you make such blanket statements. I am not reinstating my comment as I agree with you on the point about this being a Zorastian article.

Secondly, Hinduism is not polytheistic (common misconception by outsiders; please read the wikpedia article) but rather either monist (i.e. Advaita), either pantheist or panenthestic or monotheistic(i.e., Vaishnavism and Shaivism). Ok, I agree with you on the Buddhist point as well.

If you want to reply, reply in the talk section of Zorastianism.

Helmuth Weidling
I am not sure what you used as a source but please google on [Helmuth Weidling] you will see that he was a "General der Artillerie". I can not find the very good biography of him which I saw on the net, but he was a decorated WWI officer who, if I remember correctly, died in Soviet captivity after a long imprisonment, because of his premotion to commandant of Berlin of a couple of weeks. Philip Baird Shearer 12:17, 21 Nov 2004 (UTC)

 * The german version of the wikipedia was my main source (and a book I read about four years ago). The german wikipedia uses the Helmut spelling but I don't know how that shifts over to english. The only reason I wrote that substub was that the comander of the berlin forces was wrong in an article so I corrected it. If I get time I'll dig through my uni libiarly for more info but I can't promise anything Geni 13:00, 21 Nov 2004 (UTC)

It is not translated into English. Please do the Google search. Most of the refernces on the net are in German! I think that the German version is Wiki must be wrong, but I am open to being corrected. A seach on Helmuth alone shows that others (slightly dated) have also used it as as first name.

The Humungous Image Tagging Project
Hi. You've helped with the WikiProject Wiki Syntax, so I thought it worth alerting you to the latest and greatest of Wikipedia fixing project, User:Yann/Untagged Images, which is seeking to put copyright tags on all of the untagged images. There are probably, oh, thirty thousand or so to do (he said, reaching into the air for a large figure). But hey: they're images ... you'll get to see lots of random pretty pictures. That must be better than looking for at at and the the, non? You know you'll love it. best wishes --Tagishsimon (talk)

Article Licensing
Hi, I've started a drive to get users to multi-license all of their contributions that they've made to either (1) all U.S. state, county, and city articles or (2) all articles, using the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike (CC-by-sa) v1.0 and v2.0 Licenses or into the public domain if they prefer. The CC-by-sa license is a true free documentation license that is similar to Wikipedia's license, the GFDL, but it allows other projects, such as WikiTravel, to use our articles. Since you are among the top 2000 Wikipedians by edits, I was wondering if you would be willing to multi-license all of your contributions or at minimum those on the geographic articles. Over 90% of people asked have agreed. For More Information:
 * Multi-Licensing FAQ - Lots of questions answered
 * Multi-Licensing Guide
 * Free the Rambot Articles Project

To allow us to track those users who muli-license their contributions, many users copy and paste the " " template into their user page, but there are other options at Template messages/User namespace. The following examples could also copied and pasted into your user page:

 * Option 1
 * I agree to multi-license all my contributions, with the exception of my user pages, as described below:

OR
 * Option 2
 * I agree to multi-license all my contributions to any U.S. state, county, or city article as described below:

Or if you wanted to place your work into the public domain, you could replace " " with "  ". If you only prefer using the GFDL, I would like to know that too. Please let me know what you think at my talk page. It's important to know either way so no one keeps asking. -- Ram-Man (comment| talk)

Congratulations, Geni
Congratulations! It's my pleasure to let you know that, consensus being reached, you are now an administrator. You should read the relevant policies and other pages linked to from the administrators' reading list before carrying out tasks like deletion, protection, banning users, and editing protected pages such as the Main Page. Most of what you do is easily reversible by other sysops, apart from page history merges and image deletion, so please be especially careful with those. You might find the new administrators' how-to guide helpful. Cheers! -- Cecropia | explains it all ® 20:21, 22 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Well done! Take it slowly at first, be very careful of range blocks, and blocking ISP proxies, and do not delete images unless you are absolutely sure 100% about it. Note that the link table broke a while back and cannot be fixed, so do not assume an image is an orphan just because no page appears to link to it.

Changes made today
Why did you revert the article on SHAC? The replacement was more to the truth. The text you replaced it with references irrelevant events that are not directly linked to SHAC but instead to people who (sometimes) are linked with people who support SHAC. The campaign is non-violent.

I am also wondering about your changes to the SHAC page. I moved "Direct action used by SHAC supporters has included violence, harassment, intimidation with death-threat letters and hoax bombs, arson, trespass, vandalism and destruction of property. Despite SHAC's stated policy of non-violent direct action, isolated physical attacks have occurred, such as the assault on Brian Cass, manager director of HLS, who was attacked outside his home in February 2001 by three men armed with pickaxe handles and CS gas. [2] (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/1494924.stm)" to the "criticisms of shac" section and reworded it. You have moved replaced it in the "organization" section and changed it in the "criticisms of shac" section. It is not necessary to have it in both sections and I feel that it fits better into the second.

Do you have a reference that shows that Dave Blenkinsop was a "SHAC activist"?

"SHAC's use of public records in the sending of malicious threats to all investors in HLS" SHAC do not send 'malicious threats'. Maybe some people do; can you prove that they are SHAC? And the use of the word 'malicious' here seems biased - what is a malicious threat as opposed to a non-malicious threat?

"However, destruction of property and the intimidation of HLS supporters is deemed acceptable." Do you have a reference to show that this is deemed acceptable by SHAC? SHAC state on their website that it is not - http://www.shac.net/disclaimer/disclaimer.html

"SHAC critics claim that the campaign decorates its stands with images of animal psychology experiments from the 1960s, now banned, rather than bona-fide images of animal medical testing." Which critics have stated this? Which pictures from the 1960s do they use? All of the pictures I have seen SHAC use are from HLS investigations. Can you show otherwise? "Use of great apes is banned" Have SHAC ever used images of great apes or claimed that HLS use Great Apes? If not then this is not relevent and should be deleted.

I put reasons for some of my changes on the "Talk" page; it'd be useful if you checked there in future and counter-argued before simply reverting changes.

WP:AN/Navbox
You might want to check out WT:AN. If you have a superiour suggestions, I'll cheerfully listen, but so far nobody seems to have a better idea. That being the case, I put the short (main) Navbox back to one line again. I have gone through and done most of the changes discussed there (made the longer navbox, and switched the archive pages, and the Incident Index page, to use the longer navbox), but I have decided to hold off tweaking the short Navbox to refer to archives 3-6 (I decided it would be too much of a hassle to update it for every new archive, and thought I'd do it two at a time) until I actually start putting stuff in 5.

Request
Hi Geni. I wonder if I could ask for your help with something. A few days ago, User:Fvw set a block on me, which I believe was inappropriate. As far as I can tell, I didn't violate any policies, and the owner of the page concerned has since affirmed my beliefs. I'm trying to discuss this with Fvw, but I'm not having much luck. Please could you have a look at my attempt to discuss this, and tell me if I'm being unreasonable. If I'm not, could you try to talk to him on my behalf? Thanks. - Jakew 21:36, 31 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Baha'u'llah photo
nice try. We'll see how long it lasts. I appriciate the internal link i wasn't sure how to format that. Rick Boatright 03:28, 6 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Geni: the passport photograph would have been taken shortly after Baha'u'llah's December 1852 release from the Siyah-Chal dungeon and before the start of His exile on 12 January 1853. Adib Taherzadeh, in The Covenant of Baha'u'llah, writes "...His neck badly injured and His back bent by the weight of heavy chains..." which would contribute to why Baha'u'llah appears as He does in the photo. I am minded that it is probably best to let the dispute about the photo come to a resolution before offering this information. What do you think? I am asking Rick Boatright, Tomhab and Paul Hammond too. --Occamy 07:34, 9 Feb 2005 (UTC)

 * That's rubbish. That photo is one of the two photos from his Adrianople days, and is acknowledged by the Bahais authorities.  Even one look at the hat he is wearing is enough to know it is from his Ottoman days, not from his Iran days.  --Amir 12:35, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Baha'i Faith break for Paul Hammond
Geni,

First of all, let me say thanks for you help on the Baha'i articles, a subject I am sure was only of passing interest to you, if that. Your efforts to be an even-handed and reasonable editor and work towards an acceptable compromise have been greatly appreciated by myself, and I am sure several others involved in the recent conflicts.

I'm taking a break from editing the Baha'i articles for a few weeks - a combination of factors really - I'm busy sorting out a real life move to a new city and job, and I found myself getting angry yesterday with another editor who I respect and admire - not good.

So, I'm just letting a few people know about this. If you need my support or comments on anything Baha'i related in the mean time, drop me a line on my talk page. Otherwise, I expect to be taking an active interest in the Baha'i articles again sometime in mid-March. Hope to see you around the Wikipedia elsewhere. - PaulHammond 14:59, Feb 14, 2005 (UTC)

btw - If you're a Mornington Crescent fan, then we really must talk further. And maybe meet up for a round of One song to the tune of another. I think, if we can agree on Southwell's revised version with the notes agreed by Garden for play on the internet, I can make my first move. Hmm. Putney Bridge PaulHammond 15:06, Feb 14, 2005 (UTC)

Bahá'í pages vandalism
I will leave it up to a duly adjudicated decision of the Wikipedia community as to settling the Bahá'í (or actually more the Amir) issue of constant POV intrusions and reverts based on his hostility, rather than anything to do with facts. If you are an administrator, could I request that some decision be made on the policy of pictures being added to irrelevant pages (much less the dispute about it going on the Bahá'u'lláh page itself) and what I and others (seemingly yourself as well in at least some cases) perceive as hostily POV? If it is decided as policy to include (and not simply link to, etc.) the image, I for one will strive to see that it is honored, even though I disagree with it. It is not just this, of course, but his constant reverts of relevant information and addition of irrelevant and manifestly biased information. And, if it is agreed that someone is transgressing policies, might they be warned about being blocked from doing so in the future? Brettz9 02:40, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Oh, though I doubt you really need any further evidence for it, Amir has responded to my changing the use of first names in the article Shoghi Effendi (of "Mary" and "Shoghi") by saying: "(nobody is using first name only, don't lie. this is not about first names, and you know it. this is about bahai bigots like you censoring correct information out of bahai related articles here)". If you check out the edit, you will see that it is in fact (only in this case) about the first name. Brettz9 02:48, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Thanks
Thanks for your quick response and action concerning WP:3RR. It is sad that these blocks are needed at all :-( -- mkrohn 02:08, 19 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Stop Blocking
As an admin you keep blocking the IP address used by User:JonGwynne for 3RR. Great! Only problem is it blocks me, and no doubt others, as well. If you must block this user how about blocking his User ID instead of his IP. That way you won't inconvenience anyone else. Also, I tried to e-mail you about this but you don't have an e-mail address listed. As an admin perhaps you should consider having an alternative method of communication. Thanks. Arcturus 13:58, 19 Feb 2005 (UTC)

 * OK. Thanks for the information you've left on my talk page. Arcturus 21:19, 19 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Advice on...
OK... I'm sure you're completely fed up with the Baha'i pages of late, but all I'm asking is for advice on what you understand what needs to be in wikipedia and what is irrelevant.

If you look at Bahá'u'lláh's family, theres a section dedicated to the controversy of his third marriage. That section in itself I'm not sure if it should be up anyway (since I've actually not read about any real contraversial debate on the issue anywhere but from Amir), but I'm wondering more about the "Gawhar was pregnant" section. Its completely unfounded, unsourced and I've never even seen anyone suggest it apart from Amir. The only reason why I've not taken it down already is that there isn't anything to say she conclusively wasn't pregnant.

What does wikipedia consider on unfounded speculation. Obviously if Amir is thinking about it, others might, but there really are no papers on it, no sources that I can find and no defence made against it by the Baha'is (and Baha'is are good at putting up defence to attacks on their religion) which implies that no challenges have been put to the Baha'is.

I don't want to get you involved in this as you've already got enough on your plate dealing with the guy anyway but... whats your opinion? Definitely shouldn't be there, Probably shouldn't, Not sure, Probably should be there, or Definitely should? -- Tomhab 20:18, 19 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Revert Rules
Hello Geni,

How would you deal with someone that continually just reverts an article with no explanation on the talk page until I manage to get others in the loop? It was actually quietening down when you intervened.

Vialotion of the 3RR rule
I believe that User:Tabib and User:Cantus are in vialotion of the 3RR rule. Please, see Nagorno-Karabakh:Revision history. These users must be banned. Ray Walker.

 * Geni, I ask you not to delete this comment above by anon User:64.136.27.228, who calls himself "Ray Walker". This anon IP is a sock-puppet used by User:Rovoam, a notoriously well-known Armenian user who "distinguished" himself in Nagorno-Karabakh talkpage and whom you blocked for 24 hours for his violation of 3RR (in fact, I think, 3RR is nothing compared to what he did to push his propaganda in Wikipedia). This is an important factual evidence, which I intend to use in future arbitration against this user. --Tabib 13:39, 1 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Hi. I saw your comment on going to "incedents" on the 3RR page re 172's protect of the global warming page. Could you tell me exactly which page you mean by incidents, I'm not familiar with it.

Respecting other people's decisions
So much for respecting the decisions of other admins unless there's an egregious problem.

24 hours block
Well, you're right about Template:Sisterproject (I really hadn't thought about it - I've dedicated most of my time and energy to keeping it used). Still, I am of the opinion that this does not fall under the 3RR, as Netoholic's actions amount to simple vandalism - this template has been on WP:TFD twice, and voted to be kept on both occasions. Netoholic's first tried to turn it to a redirect to an unrelated template, than to hijack it by changing its content to unrelated content, defying the WP:TFD resolutions in the process. — Itai (f&t) 08:04, 5 Mar 2005 (UTC)

 * Well, at least you know what Netoholic's been doing... No hard feelings on my part. Not to mentions that blocks are a wonderful thing that allows me to get a good night's sleep. (I would that I could set up an auto-block to block me for 8 hours a day.) Presently, I am of the opinion that it's all quite pointless, that the community does not care, that Netoholic will win through unscrupulous persistence, and that maybe I should simply quit Wikipedia. Gloomy, I know. — Itai (f&t) 09:18, 5 Mar 2005 (UTC)

WP:3RR
Hi, you reverted my change on WP:3RR with the edit summary "they can't do that they have been blocked". I'm not sure what you're referring to. The section reverted reads as follows:

 * Demanding an apology or the de-adminning of the admin has not tended to impress. Editors should, however, take egregious misapplication of this rule to Administrators' noticeboard/3RR, or for more serious cases to Requests for comment in the section under "Use of administrator privileges".

Well a 3RR block is only for 24 hours at a maximum, so of course they can and sometimes do all of the above. Email is not blocked when editing is blocked, and specific 3RR's are fairly often discussed on WIKIEN-L. I've reverted to my original edit but will not push this further. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 12:33, 16 Mar 2005 (UTC)

I am not complaining about your having blocked me for violating the 3RR. However, it seems that RJII was not blocked -- why?

Maps
This issue potentially effects every country article on Wikipedia. I think that changes which potentially effect so many articles should not be implementend in this ad-hoc fashion. A few days ago I raised the issue of maps on Rfc. Please don't revert these pages until the issue has been resolved through dicussion. I think WikiProject Maps or WikiProject Countries are the best places for this discussion. I don't think we would want to get into the situation where every single country article was using a completely different style of map would we? Jooler 21:42, 28 Mar 2005 (UTC)

FitzGerald (crater)

FitzGerald is a large lunar impact crater on the far side of the Moon. It lies to the west-southwest of the crater Cockcroft, and about two crater diameters to the northeast of Morse.

This is an impact crater with features that have become softened and eroded by subsequent impacts in the vicinity. The younger satellite crater FitzGerald W is attached to the exterior along the northwest. Faint ray material extends from the southeastern rim of this satellite across the western floor of FitzGerald, although it is unclear if this impact is the source or if it came from the rayed crater Moore F to the north.

Several smaller craters also lie along the rim of FitzGerald, with a joined pair along the eastern rim and two more along the western edge. The inner walls display some indications of past slumping and terracing, although these features have become smoothed out with time. The interior floor is a nearly level, featureless plain, with some slight irregularities to the northeast.

Satellite craters
By convention these features are identified on lunar maps by placing the letter on the side of the crater midpoint that is closest to FitzGerald.

MicroBlaze

The MicroBlaze is a soft microprocessor core designed for Xilinx field-programmable gate arrays (FPGA). As a soft-core processor, MicroBlaze is implemented entirely in the general-purpose memory and logic fabric of Xilinx FPGAs.

MicroBlaze was introduced in 2002.

Overview
In terms of its instruction set architecture, MicroBlaze is similar to the RISC-based DLX architecture described in a popular computer architecture book by Patterson and Hennessy. With few exceptions, the MicroBlaze can issue a new instruction every cycle, maintaining single-cycle throughput under most circumstances.

The MicroBlaze has a versatile interconnect system to support a variety of embedded applications. MicroBlaze's primary I/O bus, the AXI interconnect, is a system-memory mapped transaction bus with master–slave capability. Older versions of the MicroBlaze used the CoreConnect PLB bus. The majority of vendor-supplied and third-party IP interface to AXI directly (or through an AXI interconnect). For access to local-memory (FPGA RAM), MicroBlaze uses a dedicated LMB bus, which provides fast on-chip storage. User-defined coprocessors are supported through dedicated AXI4-Stream connections. The coprocessor(s) interface can accelerate computationally intensive algorithms by offloading parts or the entirety of the computation to a user-designed hardware module.

Many aspects of the MicroBlaze can be user configured: cache size, pipeline depth (3-stage, 5-stage, or 8-stage), embedded peripherals, memory management unit, and bus-interfaces can be customized. The area-optimized version of MicroBlaze, which uses a 3-stage pipeline, sacrifices clock frequency for reduced logic area. The performance-optimized version expands the execution pipeline to 5 stages, allowing top speeds of more than 700 MHz (on Virtex UltraScale+ FPGA family). Also, key processor instructions which are rarely used but more expensive to implement in hardware can be selectively added/removed (e.g. multiply, divide, and floating point operations). This customization enables a developer to make the appropriate design trade-offs for a specific set of host hardware and application software requirements.

With the memory management unit, MicroBlaze is capable of hosting operating systems requiring hardware-based paging and protection, such as the Linux kernel. Otherwise it is limited to operating systems with a simplified protection and virtual memory model, e.g. FreeRTOS or Linux without MMU support. MicroBlaze's overall throughput is substantially less than a comparable hard CPU core (such as the ARM Cortex-A9 in the Zynq).

MicroBlaze V is based on the RISC-V architecture.

Vivado
Xilinx's Vivado Design Suite is the development environment for building current MicroBlaze (or ARM - see Zynq) embedded processor systems in Xilinx FPGAs. Older versions used Xilinx's EDK (Embedded Development Kit) development package.

Designers use the Vivado IP Integrator to configure and build the hardware specification of their embedded system (processor core, memory-controller, I/O peripherals, etc.) The IP Integrator converts the designer's block design into a synthesizeable RTL description (Verilog or VHDL), and automates the implementation of the embedded system (from RTL to the bitstream-file.)  For the MicroBlaze core, Vivado generates an encrypted (non human-readable) netlist.

The SDK handles the software that will execute on the embedded system. Powered by the GNU toolchain (GNU Compiler Collection, GNU Debugger), the SDK enables programmers to write, compile, and debug C/C++ applications for their embedded system. Xilinx's tools provides the possibility of running software in simulation, or using a suitable FPGA-board to download and execute on the actual system.

Purchasers of Vivado are granted a perpetual license to use MicroBlaze in Xilinx FPGAs with no recurring royalties. The license does not grant the right to use MicroBlaze outside of Xilinx's devices.

Alternative compilers and development tools have been made available from Altium but an EDK installation and license is still required.

Open source
In June 2009, MicroBlaze became the first soft-CPU architecture to be merged into the mainline Linux kernel source tree. This work was performed by Michal Simek and supported by PetaLogix and Xilinx.

As of September 2009, MicroBlaze GNU tools support is also being contributed to the Free Software Foundation's mainline repositories. Support for MicroBlaze is included in GCC releases starting with version 4.6

Support was added to LLVM in April 2010, but subsequently removed in July 2013 due to a lack of maintainer.

Duncan McIntyre (businessman)

Duncan McIntyre (23 December 1834 – 13 June 1894) was a Scots-Quebecer businessman from Callander noted for his participation in the Canadian Pacific Railway syndicate of 1880 and as a founder of the Bell Telephone Company of Canada.

The Canada Central Railway was owned by McIntyre who amalgamated it with the CPR and became one of the handful of officers of the newly formed CPR. The CCR started in Brockville and extended to Pembroke. It then followed a westward route along the Ottawa River passing through places such as Cobden and Deux Rivières, and eventually to Mattawa, at the confluence of the Mattawa and Ottawa rivers. It then proceeded cross-country towards its final destination, Callander.

McIntyre and his contractor James Worthington led the CCR expansion. Worthington remained with the CPR for about a year until he left the company. McIntyre's nephew, John Ferguson, staked out the future North Bay, Ontario after getting assurance from his uncle and Worthington that it would be the divisional point and a location of some importance.

The CPR started its westward expansion from Bonfield, Ontario (previously called Callander Station) where the first spike was driven into a sunken railway tie. Bonfield, Ontario was inducted into Canadian Railway Hall of Fame in 2002 as the CPR First Spike location. That was the point where the Canada Central Railway extension ended.

Family
He married Jane Allan Cassils and they were the parents of four sons and three daughters,

 * William McIntyre
 * John McIntyre
 * Duncan McIntyre
 * Charles McIntyre
 * Mary Fisher McIntyre. She married her first cousin, Archibald Arthur Hodgson (1869-1960), one of the five well-known sons of Jonathan Hodgson (1827-1914) and Margaret Cassils. Their son, Duncan, married Hylda, daughter of J. K. L. Ross, of Montreal.
 * Margaret McIntyre, married R. Archibald Snowball, of Chatham, New Brunswick. He was a younger son of The Hon. Jabez Bunting Snowball, Lieutenant Governor of New Brunswick. Their only child, Robbie, died unmarried at Montreal.
 * Jane McIntyre, married Lewis Reford, son of Robert Wilson Reford (1831-1913).

Residence
In the 1880s, McIntyre commissioned architect William Thomas to design a residence for him on a ten-acre plot within the Golden Square Mile. Known as Craguie, the mansion was demolished in 1930. In 1947, his family donated the land to McGill University, for an area known as McIntyre Park. In 1965, the university completed construction of the McIntyre Medical Sciences Building, named in his honour. The McIntyre site is also home to the Stewart Biological Sciences Building.

Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/E. E. Cummings/archive1

E. E. Cummings
Self-nomination. I've put a lot of work into this article, probably moreso than any other before, and it in all likelihood exemplifies my best work here. I've taken the article from little more than a blurb to what I think is a fine, expansive, polished article. I think I've done a passable job of maintaining a neutral point-of-view and balancing out praises of Cummings with criticisms. This article is also well-illustrated in my estimation, with seven images (six of which are PD-US, btw). That said, I am open to any and all suggestions. There's always room for improvement. BLANKFAZE | (что??) 19:18, 17 Apr 2005 (UTC)

 * Object for the moment, most of the images uploaded by Blankfaze seem to lack proper attribution and tagging, must therefore be presumed to be copyvios. Fawcett5 20:00, 17 Apr 2005 (UTC) Also, there is virtually no narrative for almost 1/3 of Cummings life, the period from 1932-1952. Fawcett5 21:17, 17 Apr 2005 (UTC)

 * Hmm, all images are tagged... I don't get it. BLANKFAZE | (что??) 20:12, 17 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * Well, its true that you slapped a PD tag on them, but every image has since been notated by others. You didn't indicate WHERE they came from online, the photographer, or the date of publication, so we're left to take your word that they are PD. By the way, copyright doesn't date from the moment the photo was snapped, but from when it was published, so just because the image is from before a certain date is no guarantee that it is PD. Moreover, you didn't indicate a rationale for your fair use claim for the one photo not on commons. Fawcett5 20:40, 17 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * Let me elaborate on the images: the six images on commons are , that is, they are in the public domain in the United States, but not necessarily elsewhere.  There are issues at commons as to whether they belong on commons or not because it's not 100% certain that they are 100% free in all countries.  And, by the way, I'm well aware of the copyright law you mentioned. BLANKFAZE | (что??)
 * It should be no problem then for you to provide a source for the images. I do agree that they should be PD, just give us a bit more. Fawcett5 21:17, 17 Apr 2005 (UTC)

 * Support. I tried very hard to find some reason to object, but I just couldn't :p. I've done a quick bit of copyediting, hopefully eliminated the last few typos. (Note to blankfaze: as a "strong supporter of British English" on the wiki, you should start applying your own policies. :D I left all American spellings I found alone; I'll leave it to you to change them). Also the above objection is invalid, as it is based on an incorrect assumption. Phils 20:20, 17 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * Oh, are there some? I'm not responsible for all of the content, so I may have missed something.  Also, my personal writing style is somewhat of a mish-mash (probably about 85% BE, 15% AE), so feel free to go through it yourself... :-P BLANKFAZE | (что??) 20:26, 17 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * support seems like a good article Mozzerati 21:00, 2005 Apr 17 (UTC)
 * We don't need to put his name in lowercase as he used to write it? Everyking 21:35, 17 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * Read the article, my friend. His name should not be spelled in miniscules.  That was a publishing design that got carried away. BLANKFAZE | (что??) 21:48, 17 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * OK then, I was wrong about that. Everyking 21:53, 17 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * Support; good work. I remember, as you mentioned, visiting this one in its more stubbish days, and I am impressed with the progress. One comment (sort of in Everyking's vein): while I understand the notion that the lowercase use of his name was not endorsed by Cummings, it is something that many people associate with him or know about him, and thus I think it should be mentioned (if not bolded) in the lead section. --DanielNuyu 03:38, 18 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * I understand your idea about the lead though I'm not quite sure how I'd implement it; you're welcome to try your hand. BLANKFAZE | (что??) 05:06, 18 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * See it now. And one more suggestion: while I like the links to the poetry, I think including within the article one short poem, in my preference "a leaf falls..," would make it even stronger. --DanielNuyu 06:23, 18 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * I like the idea as well — the problem: most of Cummings' poems, including the one you prefer, are copyrighted works.  BLANKFAZE | (что??) 21:23, 18 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * Object. To much on the life and not enough on the work, apart from a short comment on his development as a writer, and what their is is oddly slanted towards the plays and not the poetry. And yet, strangely, not enough on his relationship with Schofield Thayer, EEC's first real publisher as a writer and patron as a painter, whose name isn't even wikified. Not enough on who the influences on him were (Pound and Stein just mentioned in passing). The accusations of anti-Semitism need to be place in a wider modernist context (Pound, Woolf, Eliot, H.D. and others also exhibit this vice). Nothing at all on his legacy. Who, if anyone, did he influence, and how? I just feel it needs a lot more. Filiocht | Blarneyman 08:47, Apr 18, 2005 (UTC)

 * Object. I agree with Filiocht. The Criticism section is aso extremely small and without any kind of attribution. POV: frequent use of "probably" and phrases such as "Cummings understood the importance of presentation" (the issue being an assumption that presentation is important). His writing style does not have any example that I see. 119 21:32, 18 Apr 2005 (UTC)

 * Object, I am afraid - I think the biography section is fine, but, in commong with Filiocht and 119, the sections on his works are just stubs, really, and need significant expansion - they should to be as comprehensive as the biography section. -- ALoan (Talk) 10:44, 19 Apr 2005 (UTC)

--- Zanzar is the building in front of the studio it seems. Dave Rodgers stopped making music back in 2016 and ABeatC sucessor Sunfire Records was owned and produced by Evelyn Malferrari (but was not made at Rodgers Studio). The studio was sold/abandoned somewhere in 2017 (confirmed by a korean fan who went last year) aswell as Sunfire Records stopped making music.

Bivens v. Six Unknown Named Agents

Bivens v. Six Unknown Named Agents, 403 U.S. 388 (1971), was a case in which the US Supreme Court ruled that an implied cause of action existed for an individual whose Fourth Amendment protection against unreasonable search and seizures had been violated by the Federal Bureau of Narcotics. The victim of such a deprivation could sue for the violation of the Fourth Amendment itself despite the lack of any federal statute authorizing such a suit. The existence of a remedy for the violation was implied by the importance of the right violated.

The case was understood to create a cause of action against the federal government similar to the one in 42 U.S.C. § 1983 against the states. However, the Supreme Court has sharply limited new Bivens claims.

The Supreme Court has upheld Bivens claims only three times: in Bivens (1971), Davis v. Passman (1979), and Carlson v. Green (1980). Under Ziglar v. Abbasi (2017) and Egbert v. Boule (2022), any claim that is not highly similar to the facts in Bivens (excessive force during arrest), Davis (sex discrimination in federal employment), or Carlson (inadequate care in prison) is a "new context" to which Bivens will not be extended if "there is any reason to think that Congress might be better equipped to create a damages remedy."

Background
Federal Bureau of Narcotics (FBN) agents searched the Brooklyn home of the plaintiff, Webster Bivens, and arrested him without a warrant. Drug charges were filed but were later dismissed by a US commissioner (now called magistrate judge). Bivens filed a lawsuit alleging the violation of his Fourth Amendment protection from unreasonable search and seizure. The government claimed that the violation allowed for only a state law claim for invasion of privacy and that the Fourth Amendment provides no cause of action but only a rebuttable defense for the FBN agents.

The district court agreed and dismissed the suit for lack of subject-matter jurisdiction and for Bivens's failure to state a claim upon which relief can be granted. The Second Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed. The Supreme Court granted certiorari on that secondary issue of whether a plaintiff can bring a claim in federal court based solely on an alleged violation of his Fourth Amendment rights.

Bivens was represented pro bono by Stephen A. Grant.

Decision
The Supreme Court, in an opinion by Justice Brennan, laid down a rule that it will infer a private right of action for monetary damages where no other federal remedy is provided for the vindication of a constitutional right, based on the principle that "for every wrong, there is a remedy". The court reasoned based upon a presumption that where there is a violation of a right, the plaintiff can recover whatever he could recover under any civil action, unless Congress has expressly curtailed that right of recovery, or there exist some "special factors counseling hesitation".

Concurrence
Justice Harlan voted with the majority to reverse the lower court but also wrote a separate concurring opinion.

"For the reasons set forth below, I am of the opinion that federal courts do have the power to award damages for violation of 'constitutionally protected interests' and I agree with the Court that a traditional judicial remedy such as damages is appropriate to the vindication of the personal interests protected by the Fourth Amendment."

Harlan particularly emphasized the special importance of constitutional rights. He presented that it was well-settled, even undeniable, that a suit for injunction based on a constitutional right had been long recognized in the Federal courts. However, a suit for damages should be as or more acceptable.

Dissents
Dissenting opinions were written by Chief Justice Burger and by Justices Black and Blackmun.

Chief Justice Burger's dissent asserted that the decision was legislating an area that should be left to Congress. Justice Black basically agreed with Justice Burger and was worried about the growing docket. Justice Blackmun went a step further, saying the decision "opens the door for another avalanche of new federal cases".

Subsequent case law

 * Butz v. Economou,

In Davis v. Passman,, the Supreme Court upheld a Fifth Circuit opinion that held that even though there existed "an explicit congressional prohibition against judicial remedies for those in petitioner's position", the Court declined to infer that Congress also sought to foreclose an alternative remedy directly under the Fifth Amendment.

 * Stafford v. Briggs,

In Carlson v. Green,, the court held that a damages remedy would be available despite the absence of any statute conferring such a right, unless: (1) Congress had provided an alternative remedy which it "explicitly declared to be a substitute for recovery directly under the Constitution"; or (2) the defendant could demonstrate any "special factors counseling hesitation".

 * Chappell v. Wallace,

In Bush v. Lucas,, the Court refrained from implying a Bivens remedy due to the availability of alternative remedies for the first time.

 * Mitchell v. Forsyth,
 * Anderson v. Creighton,
 * United States v. Stanley,
 * Schweiker v. Chilicky,
 * Siegert v. Gilley,
 * McCarthy v. Madigan,

In FDIC v. Meyer,, and Correctional Services Corporation v. Malesko, , the court held that the fundamental logic supporting Bivens was to deter constitutional violations by individual officers, not federal agencies.

 * Farmer v. Brennan,
 * Wilson v. Layne,
 * Saucier v. Katz,
 * Christopher v. Harbury,
 * Hartman v. Moore,

In Wilkie v. Robbins,, the court held that the difficulty inherent in "defining limits to legitimate zeal on the public's behalf in situations where hard bargaining is to be expected" was a "special factor" that counseled against the availability of a Bivens remedy.

 * Ashcroft v. Iqbal,
 * Hui v. Castaneda,
 * Ashcroft v. al-Kidd,

In Minneci v. Pollard,, the court denied a Bivens action for Eighth Amendment violations committed by employees of a private prison because "state tort law authorizes adequate alternative damages actions … that provide both significant deterrence and compensation", despite acknowledging that these officials were "act[ing] under color of federal law".

 * Reichle v. Howards,
 * Wood v. Moss,
 * Ziglar v. Abbasi,
 * Hernandez v. Mesa,
 * Hernandez v. Mesa,
 * Brownback v. King,
 * Egbert v. Boule,

Scholarship on Bivens success rate
According to Alexander A. Reinert, law professor at the Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law of Yeshiva University, many attorneys assumed Bivens claims were far less successful than other civil rights litigation. However, Reinert's research showed outcomes for plaintiffs more promising than had been assumed: "Depending on the procedural posture, presence of counsel, and type of case," success ranged from "16% to more than 40%," and that "when Bivens claims fail, it very rarely is because of the qualified immunity defense."

Egbert v. Boule
The Supreme Court granted certiorari to hear Egbert v. Boule, 596 U.S. ___ (2022), in November 2021, which was expected to review extensions of Bivens related remedies. The case involved a lawsuit filed by Robert Boule, the owner of an inn at the U.S.-Canada border against U.S. Border Patrol agent Erik Egbert related to a 2014 incident. In the incident, after Boule asked Egbert to leave his property when Egbert had approached a Turkish man about his immigration status, Egbert pushed Boule to the ground. Boule complained to the Border Patrol, which in turn led Egbert to prompt the IRS to investigate Boule. Boule claimed his First and Fourth Amendment rights were violated under Bivens. The district court found against Boule asserting his claims were an inappropriate extension of Bivens, but the Ninth Circuit reversed.

In the 6-3 decision in Egbert v. Boule, the Supreme Court of the United States decided that the authority of the court to find a course of action under Bivens does not extend to Robert Boule claim of excessive force under the Fourth Amendment to the United States Constitution and his First Amendment retaliation claim.

Border Zone (video game)

Border Zone is an interactive fiction video game written by Marc Blank and published by Infocom in 1987. It was released for DOS, Apple II, Commodore 64, Amiga, Atari ST, and Macintosh. Unlike most other purely text-based games, Border Zone incorporates real-time aspects of gameplay. It is also Infocom's thirtieth game. Its tagline is "Action and international intrigue behind the Iron Curtain."

Plot
Mirroring the real-world tension of the Cold War in the 1980s, Border Zone is set in and around Ostnitz, located on the border between the Eastern Bloc nation of Frobnia and neutral Litzenburg. The celebration of "Constitution Day" in Ostnitz will include a speech by Litzenburg's American ambassador; there is a plot in motion, however, to assassinate the ambassador in an effort to provoke hostilities between the superpowers. Border Zone consists of three chapters, each of which places the player in the role of a different character. An American businessman, a KGB agent, and an American spy become entangled in the assassination plot and efforts to either stop it or ensure its success.

The tension is increased by the introduction of real-time events in the game. Unusual for a text adventure, game time continues to pass even as the computer waits for the player's next input. Certain actions, such as sneaking past a guard post, must be timed carefully to succeed.

Feelies
Besides the high quality of their interactive fiction games, Infocom was also known for feelies: extra items included in each game package related to the story, and sometimes used as copy protection. The Border Zone feelies included:
 * I Am Frobnia, a "Fortunate Tourists Guide and Phrasebook"
 * A business card from "Riznik's Antiques, Rare Books and Curios" (In Historic Ostnitz for 35 Years)
 * A matchbook with the logo of the Frobnia National Railway (Frobniz Bourashni Rallni)
 * A map of the border between Frobnia and Litzenburg

Reception
Computer Gaming Worlds Scorpia found Border Zones division into three standalone adventures unsatisfying, and stated that it would have been better as one. She concluded that it was "one of Infocom's weakest games to date". PC Magazine stated that the game "has hit upon exactly the right scenario for an interactive novel" and praised the feelies' "rich detail". Compute! also praised the feelies, and stated that the real-time game play and playing three different characters distinguished the game from other text adventures.

Fleming (crater)

Fleming is a large lunar impact crater that is located on the Moon's far side, and cannot be seen from the Earth. It lies about a crater diameter to the east-northeast of Hertz, and to the northwest of Lobachevskiy.

The low rim of this formation is heavily eroded and overlaid by multiple smaller craters. The most notable of these is Fleming along the southern rim, while another, only slightly smaller crater cuts across the lower eastern rim. The interior floor is also marked by a number of small impacts and a few ghost-crater rims.

The crater was named after Alexander and Williamina Fleming. Prior to naming in 1970 by the IAU, this crater was known as Crater 203.

Fleming is one of the largest craters of Nectarian age.

Satellite craters
By convention these features are identified on lunar maps by placing the letter on the side of the crater midpoint that is closest to Fleming.
