Talk:Nintendo Power

"Overview and design" p1 - very PoV
The Overview and design section of this article desperately needs work. In particular, the first paragraph is so incredibly PoV ("...NP was the ultimate source for detailed mapping and insider knowledge delivered directly from the programming teams") that it reads like, and very likely is, advertising copy. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.20.238.74 (talk) 21:10, 27 January 2011 (UTC)

Merge proposal
I propose merging the stub article Nintendo Power Line into a "Hotline" section on Nintendo Power. The former is very short (approx four sentences) and has not seen significant contributions or notable media coverage in some time. I believe the content would fit better on this page. RoxySaunders (talk) 17:34, 19 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Oppose Per WP:NEXIST. There are easily enough sources out there to make a Good Article at least about the Nintendo Power Line itself. If you think the article is too small, WP:DIY.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 17:11, 23 December 2020 (UTC)
 * My proposal is not based on the article's current lack of notability-establishing sources, but my perceived lack of independent sources in general. I'm sure there's plenty of verifiable information in Nintendo Power magazine that could be included, and I'd be happy to add this material myself. But in my due dilligence, I struggled to find other reliable sources that establish that the hotline is notable as anything except as a footnote in the broader history of the magazine, and the stubbiness of the standalone article supports that. Ergo, merge. My research assistant (Google) is admittedly heavily biased toward recent online sources, but in what pre-2016 material I could find, the subject's coverage begins and ends with "In the 90s there was a Nintendo hotline you could call for game tips." RoxySaunders (talk) 01:32, 24 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Support I'm not aware of any coverage addressing them separately, the current Line article is the stubbiest of stubs, and the Nintendo Power article is fairly short as is.  If it gets unwieldy, we can always unmerge.  But right now, they seem to go together quite well and there's not sufficiently separate coverage of them to warrant its own article.  So I support this merge. DocFreeman24 (talk) 06:50, 17 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Support I support this merge, since it's not only a small article, but it also reads like it was just part of the main Nintendo Power article at one point. CamiTheWitch (talk) 03:27, 10 May 2021 (UTC)

Support. Panini! 🥪 01:54, 20 June 2021 (UTC)

Fleeting mention of the podcast
I have noticed that the About template at the very beginning of the article says that said article is "about the magazine and podcast." Yet, the podcast is only seriously mentioned in the form of a lone paragraph at the back of the article. If the article is truly also about the podcast, surely there is at least a paragraph or more of material of the podcast to be mentioned. And maybe move that material a bit higher up. Thanks.

Talk:Wonder Showzen

List of characters
I created a page to list all the characters. ***Ria777 16:52, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

New Wonder Showzen category
I gave the series its own category, too, for biographies of the series creators and the episode summaries to reside. ***Ria777 16:52, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

How to describe
Bold text This show seems to defy description (other than insane). Any help would be appreciated.--Wasabe3543 00:32, 13 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Yeah, I saw preview on MTV. The show's site says it's absurdist comedy. Which is true since it's most likely the most fucked up kids show ever. --Saint-Paddy 01:29, 18 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Read this NY Times review, I think it describes the show well, http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9902E2DE133FF932A05750C0A9639C8B63

The show has some strong illicit drug effects portrayed through the show. I am guessing and have heard that it is for tripping to. -- 65.10.112.250 04:29, 26 April 2006 (UTC)

If you tried to trip and watch wonder showzen, you would have a very bad time. Some images are a stark disturbing contrast to the absurd "trippy" puppets. The final TRUE episode of the show eventually becomes a split screen of hundreds of different things going on at once, with all their sounds playing simultaneously. A bad time, if you ask me. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.208.73.163 (talk) 21:44, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

merge
merge with Wonder showzen? --Morbid-o 13:48, 26 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * Yes, the "Wonder showzen" describes the same show as this article. I merged and redirect the lower case "Showzen" article. The lowercase one had a better intro sentence. --Chill Pill Bill 04:25, 11 May 2005 (UTC)

Pilot
There's a pilot version of it floating around on the Internet (google for Kids Show) - would adding a link to it be of any use?
 * Hrm. I don't see any problem with it, but one never knows...  You could always link to it here. (EBaumsworld?) --Morbid-o 20:04, 8 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Yeah, that's the one, pretty much the first hit. Anyone THAT interested can find it themselves anyway.

The article said that the interview puppets name was Chauncey. He's the host. The interview host is clarence.

Showzen
What is showzen? --Abdull 10:05, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

I think it's just meant to sound faux-German.

20+ Edits
Oh my god, this anonymous guy edited the damn page atleast 20 times over the night and just ended up screwing the thing up. I didn't mention it in the edit, but my edit was a revert.--Kugamazog 10:48, 7 May 2006 (UTC)

Cast
I'm quite sure that some of the animated characters aren't cast. They are only featured once so far. I plan on removing them unless someone has an objection. --Kugamazog 12:45, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Mr. Body and D.O.G. seem to be recurring, and it seems the He-Man spoof is going to show up this week.--CyberGhostface 20:02, 10 May 2006 (UTC)

Horse Apples
What's the deal with the entire Horse Apples episode replacing Mathematics? Hopefully it will air next week (should be the season finale)? A: They have the mathematics scheduled for next week.

It would now appear to me as though the material shown in the "Mathematics" previewes in the week leading up to "Horse Apples" is not real, just a fake-out to heighten the realism of the "last-minute decision" to show "Horse Apples," (or perhaps will be shown in an episode next season). Furthermore, the show's official site at MTV2.com still lists the "Horse Apples" episode as being called "Mathematics." Anyone else think we should change it back to "Mathematics" until a reliable source calls it something else?

 * The official title, according to the DVD, is Mathematics. Let's keep it that way. FreakmanJ 07:08, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

Personal Opinions
We need to delete all personal opinions on the page, people have been posting it for the episode capsules.Slickidiot 17:34, 13 May 2006 (UTC)

Episodes
How about we start making separate pages for each episode. I have started the first two. Help would be greatly appreciated and the preferred wiki name should be http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NameofEpisode_(Wonder_Showzen_Episode) Slickidiot 17:33, 13 May 2006 (UTC)

Season 3?
Anyone heard if this has been picked up for a 3rd season, and when it might air?
 * From the look of it, they spent the last 5 episodes whining that the American south sucked, then the last episode was complaining that there was nothing good on television ending with Clarence essentially suiciding. I doubt they will be back, which is a shame. They probably would have been if they managed to make more episodes like 1x05 and 2x01. --Kugamazog 02:19, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
 * I think it will be back. Along with the ratings it receives from the over watcher with Andy Milonakis, Wonder Showzen has its own fan base. I doubt MTV2 will take this from us at this point in time. Slickidiot 13:22, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Actually, it wasn't the "SOUTH" it was MIDDLE AMERICA. Meaning the midwest and south.

I think Clarence's "suicide" was kinda random weirdness, not something to be viewed as having a lot of meaning. This show doesn't exactly seem to be the type of show that's particularly concerned with continuity like that. The last two episodes were kinda strange, but I wouldn't count them out yet. Personally, though, I hope MTV2 decides not to renew so that similarly Viacom-owned Comedy Central can pick it up. New episodes premiering Wednesdays at 10:30 right after South Park would make for a good hour.
 * Personally, I'd rather Adult Swim pick it up. They're allegedly big fans of the show, and I think they'd give PFFR creative liscense to do whatever the hell they want, and would still push it like crazy. Plus, if it were on Adult Swim, it would be on at a better time, since its Friday at 9:30 time sucked. But what do I know. FreakmanJ 07:11, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

The fan site www.wonder-showzen.com are confirming MTV have axed the series.

The Wonder Showzen Kids
I wonder if it's worth noting that some of the kids aren't just "kids off the street" a la Sesame Street but in fact professional actors (if in fact they aren't all professional child actors). The redhead kid who does Beat Kids has a pretty lengthy list of credits at the IMDb, for example. 23skidoo 03:40, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

Added special infobox
I created a WonderShowzen infobox with the list of episodes for that season. Season 1, and Season 2. I also moved the episode list to a seperate page, I think it's necessary for spacing out the main article, and it's useful for the infobox.Cardboardboxman 12:00, 7 December 2006 (UTC)

Special Owesome Squad?
I've seen both DVD sets of this show, and I have a question: In the first season set, there's a preview of the second in the form of a cartoon called "S.O.S.: Special Owesome Squad"; this cartoon doesn't appear in the second season set, so was it created just for the DVD, or was it actually included in any of the episodes? If the latter, which one?

Parental Warning Voice-Over
I'm fairly certain that the opening voiceover is actually "Don't eat my baby! I sound like a lady! I think I'm going crazy!". I wonder if this is even worth correcting since it is such a small part of the show. Thoughts? A Laughton (talk) 05:29, 28 December 2011 (UTC)

Reruns??!!
RERUNS??!! If any network owned by Viacom is willing to air reruns of Wonder Showzen, it should be Spike TV, not MTV, nor Comedy Central. Wonder Showzen is a very raunchy show. Spike TV is a much better place for raunchy adult shows. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.240.235.141 (talk) 18:04, 16 January 2015 (UTC)

Someone started a petition
Not even that suprising. Is this sort of thing notable enough to be included in the article? I'm a wiki-newb so I wasn't sure. https://www.change.org/p/john-lee-and-vernon-chatman-of-pffr-bring-back-wonder-showzen 134.129.137.108 (talk) 17:55, 7 April 2015 (UTC)

Unrelated link in "See also"
I deleted a link to Don't Hug Me I'm Scared under "See Also" that had been added in an anonymous edit without any description because the link had no connection to the subject of the article.

Square–cube law

The square–cube law (or cube–square law) is a mathematical principle, applied in a variety of scientific fields, which describes the relationship between the volume and the surface area as a shape's size increases or decreases. It was first described in 1638 by Galileo Galilei in his Two New Sciences as the "...ratio of two volumes is greater than the ratio of their surfaces".

This principle states that, as a shape grows in size, its volume grows faster than its surface area. When applied to the real world, this principle has many implications which are important in fields ranging from mechanical engineering to biomechanics. It helps explain phenomena including why large mammals like elephants have a harder time cooling themselves than small ones like mice, and why building taller and taller skyscrapers is increasingly difficult.

Description

The square–cube law can be stated as follows:

"When an object undergoes a proportional increase in size, its new surface area is proportional to the square of the multiplier and its new volume is proportional to the cube of the multiplier." Represented mathematically: $$A_2=A_1\left(\frac{\ell_2}{\ell_1}\right)^2$$ where $$A_1$$ is the original surface area and $$A_2$$ is the new surface area. $$V_2=V_1\left(\frac{\ell_2}{\ell_1}\right)^3$$ where $$V_1$$ is the original volume, $$V_2$$ is the new volume, $$\ell_1$$ is the original length and $$\ell_2$$ is the new length.

For example, a cube with a side length of 1 meter has a surface area of 6 m2 and a volume of 1 m3. If the sides of the cube were multiplied by 2, its surface area would be multiplied by the square of 2 and become 24 m2. Its volume would be multiplied by the cube of 2 and become 8 m3.

The original cube (1 m sides) has a surface area to volume ratio of 6:1. The larger (2 m sides) cube has a surface area to volume ratio of (24/8) 3:1. As the dimensions increase, the volume will continue to grow faster than the surface area. Thus the square–cube law. This principle applies to all solids.

Engineering
When a physical object maintains the same density and is scaled up, its volume and mass are increased by the cube of the multiplier while its surface area increases only by the square of the same multiplier. This would mean that when the larger version of the object is accelerated at the same rate as the original, more pressure would be exerted on the surface of the larger object.

Consider a simple example of a body of mass $$m$$, undergoing an acceleration $$a$$, with a surface area $$A$$, upon which the accelerating force is acting. The force due to acceleration is $$F = m a$$ and the pressure is $$P = \frac{F}{A} = \frac{m a}{A}$$.

Now, consider the object to be exaggerated by a multiplier factor $$x$$ so that it has a new mass $$m' = x^3 m$$, and a new surface area $$A' = x^2 A$$.

The new force due to acceleration is $$F' = x^3 m a$$ and the resulting pressure is: $$\begin{align} P' &= \frac{F'}{A'}\\ &= \frac{x^3 m a}{x^2 A}\\ &= x\ \frac{m a}{A}\\ &= x\ P\\ \end{align}$$

Thus, just scaling up the size of an object, keeping the same material of construction (density), and same acceleration, would increase the pressure by the same scaling factor. This would indicate that the object would have less ability to resist stress and would be more prone to collapse while accelerating.

This is why large vehicles perform poorly in crash tests and why there are theorized limits as to how high buildings can be built. Similarly, the larger an object is, the less other objects would resist its motion, causing its deceleration.

Engineering examples

 * Steam engine: James Watt, working as an instrument maker for the University of Glasgow, was given a scale model Newcomen steam engine to put in working order. Watt recognized the problem as being related to the square–cube law, in that the surface-to-volume ratio of the model's cylinder was greater than that of the much larger commercial engines, leading to excessive heat loss.  Experiments with this model led to Watt's famous improvements to the steam engine.
 * Airbus A380: the lift and control surfaces (wings, rudders, and elevators) are relatively big compared to the fuselage of the airplane. For example, taking a Boeing 737 and merely magnifying its dimensions to the size of an A380 would result in wings that are too small for the aircraft's weight, because of the square–cube rule.
 * Expander cycle rocket engines suffer from the square–cube law. Their size, and therefore thrust, is limited by heat transfer efficiency due to the surface area of the nozzle increasing slower than the volume of fuel flowing through the nozzle.
 * A clipper needs relatively more sail surface than a sloop to reach the same speed, meaning there is a higher sail-surface-to-sail-surface ratio between these craft than there is a weight-to-weight ratio.
 * Aerostats generally benefit from the square–cube law. As the radius ($r^1$) of a balloon is increased, the cost in surface area increases quadratically ($r^2$), but the lift generated from volume increases cubically ($r^3$).
 * Structural engineering: Materials that work at small scales may not work at larger scales. For example, the compressive stress at the bottom of a small free-standing column scales at the same rate as the size of the column. Therefore, there exists a size for a given material and density at which a column will collapse on itself.

Biomechanics
If an animal were isometrically scaled up by a considerable amount, its relative muscular strength would be severely reduced, since the cross-section of its muscles would increase by the square of the scaling factor while its mass would increase by the cube of the scaling factor. As a result of this, cardiovascular and respiratory functions would be severely burdened.

In the case of flying animals, the wing loading would be increased if they were isometrically scaled up, and they would therefore have to fly faster to gain the same amount of lift. Air resistance per unit mass is also higher for smaller animals (reducing terminal velocity) which is why a small animal like an ant cannot be seriously injured from impact with the ground after being dropped from any height.

As stated by J. B. S. Haldane, large animals do not look like small animals: an elephant cannot be mistaken for a mouse scaled up in size. This is due to allometric scaling: the bones of an elephant are necessarily proportionately much larger than the bones of a mouse because they must carry proportionately higher weight. Haldane illustrates this in his seminal 1928 essay On Being the Right Size in referring to allegorical giants: "...consider a man 60 feet high...Giant Pope and Giant Pagan in the illustrated Pilgrim's Progress: ...These monsters...weighed 1000 times as much as [a normal human]. Every square inch of a giant bone had to support 10 times the weight borne by a square inch of human bone. As the average human thigh-bone breaks under about 10 times the human weight, Pope and Pagan would have broken their thighs every time they took a step." Consequently, most animals show allometric scaling with increased size, both among species and within a species. The giant creatures seen in monster movies (e.g., Godzilla, King Kong, and Them!, and other kaiju) are also unrealistic, given that their sheer size would force them to collapse.

However, the buoyancy of water negates to some extent the effects of gravity. Therefore, aquatic animals can grow to very large sizes without the same musculoskeletal structures that would be required of similarly sized terrestrial animals, and it is the primary reason that the largest animals to ever exist on earth are aquatic animals.

The metabolic rate of animals scales with a mathematical principle named quarter-power scaling according to the metabolic theory of ecology.

Mass and heat transfer
Mass transfer, such as diffusion to smaller objects such as living cells is faster than diffusion to larger objects such as entire animals. Thus, in chemical processes that take place on a surface – rather than in the bulk – finer-divided material is more active. For example, the activity of a heterogeneous catalyst is higher when it is divided into finer particles. Such catalysts typically occur in warmer conditions.

Heat production from a chemical process scales with the cube of the linear dimension (height, width) of the vessel, but the vessel surface area scales with only the square of the linear dimension. Consequently, larger vessels are much more difficult to cool. Also, large-scale piping for transferring hot fluids is difficult to simulate on a small scale, because heat is transferred faster out from smaller pipes. Failure to take this into account in process design may lead to catastrophic thermal runaway.

German submarine U-195

German submarine U-195 was a Type IXD1 transport U-boat which served in World War II. The submarine was laid down on 15 May 1941 at the DeSchiMAG AG Weser yard in Bremen as yard number 1041, launched on 8 April 1942, and commissioned on 5 September 1942 under the command of Korvettenkapitän Heinz Buchholz.

U-195 was one of two IX-D1 transport U-boats that had their forward torpedo tubes removed and the compartment converted into a cargo hold. The other IX-D1 was GS U-180, which was lost in the Bay of Biscay in 1944 whilst setting out for a voyage to Japan. (U-180 had been trialled originally with six diesel engines driving two propeller shafts, but overheating proved such a problem that these engines were removed and replaced with a pair of 2,200 hp MAN diesel engines). It is unclear if U-195 underwent the same engine history as U-180, but it seems likely.

Design
German Type IXD2 submarines were considerably larger than the original Type IXs. U-195 had a displacement of 1610 t when at the surface and 1799 t while submerged. The U-boat had a total length of 87.58 m, a pressure hull length of 68.50 m, a beam of 7.50 m, a height of 10.20 m, and a draught of 5.35 m. The submarine was powered by two MAN M 9 V 40/46 supercharged four-stroke, nine-cylinder diesel engines plus two MWM RS34.5S six-cylinder four-stroke diesel engines for cruising, producing a total of 9000 PS for use while surfaced, two Siemens-Schuckert 2 GU 345/34 double-acting electric motors producing a total of 1000 shp for use while submerged. She had two shafts and two 1.85 m propellers. The boat was capable of operating at depths of up to 200 m.

The submarine had a maximum surface speed of 20.8 kn and a maximum submerged speed of 6.9 kn. When submerged, the boat could operate for 121 nmi at 2 kn; when surfaced, she could travel 12750 nmi at 10 kn. U-195 was fitted with six 53.3 cm torpedo tubes (four fitted at the bow and two at the stern), 24 torpedoes, one 10.5 cm SK C/32 naval gun, 150 rounds, and a 3.7 cm SK C/30 with 2575 rounds as well as two 2 cm C/30 anti-aircraft guns with 8100 rounds. The boat had a complement of fifty-five.

First patrol
U-195 departed Kiel on 20 March 1943 and sailed to the waters off South Africa where she sank two ships and damaged another.

On 11 April she torpedoed the American 7,200 GRT liberty ship James W. Denver about 475 nmi west of Las Palmas, Canary Islands. The ship, a straggler from Convoy UGS-7 en route from Baltimore to Casablanca, was loaded with sugar, acid, flour, aircraft parts, vehicles, bulldozers and had twelve P-38 Lightning aircraft as deck cargo. The crew of 69 abandoned ship in five lifeboats. The U-boat then fired two more torpedoes which sank the vessel.

Another unescorted liberty ship, Samuel Jordan Kirkwood was torpedoed on 7 May about 125 nmi southeast of Ascension Island. The crew of 71 abandoned ship in four lifeboats and a raft before the U-boat sank the ship with another torpedo.

On 12 May, the unescorted 6,797 GRT American merchant ship Cape Neddick was hit by two torpedoes. One failed to explode, while the other tore a hole 25 ft by 30 ft in the side. Still under way, the ship's armed guards opened fire at the U-boat with their 4 in, 3 in, and 20 mm guns. The vessel began to sink, and most of the crew abandoned ship in two lifeboats and three rafts. After more than an hour the master and six volunteers re-boarded the ship and got her under way, just as U-195 fired another torpedo, which missed. The next day, the ship returned to pick up the men in the boats and rafts, and on 16 May arrived safely at Walvis Bay, South Africa. U-195 arrived at Bordeaux on 23 July after a patrol lasting 126 days.

Second patrol
Now under the command of Oblt.z.S. Friedrich Steinfeldt, U-195 left Bordeaux in occupied France on 24 August 1944 and arrived at Batavia (now part of Indonesia), 127 days later on 28 December.

Amongst her cargo were parts of 12 dismantled V-2 rockets for the Japanese military. GS U-219 also carried part of the same V-2 rocket consignment. Both U-boats arrived at Batavia in December 1944. These two U-boats are also thought to have carried Uranium oxide requested for Japan's atomic bomb project by General Toranouke Kawashima in July 1943. The signals requesting Uranium were part of the PURPLE decrypts which have since been declassified by the United States. U-195 head north to Brunei in order to refuel for the next journey.

Third patrol
U-195's final patrol involved an abortive attempt by several U-boats to sail back to Europe. Leaving Batavia on 19 January 1945 she sailed out into the Indian Ocean, south of Madagascar. There she refuelled U-boats of the Monsun Gruppe and then returned to Batavia on 4 March.

Imperial Japanese Navy
After Germany's surrender in early May 1945, U-195 was taken over by the Imperial Japanese Navy and was commissioned as I-506 on 15 July. The U-boat surrendered to the Allies at Batavia in August 1945, she was scuttled on 15 February 1946 and was broken up in 1947. Some members of the German crew were apprehended by Dutch military forces in Malang (East-Java) on 1 August 1947

Madrean Sky Islands

The Madrean Sky Islands are enclaves of Madrean pine–oak woodlands, found at higher elevations in a complex of small mountain ranges in southern and southeastern Arizona, southwestern New Mexico, and northwestern Mexico. The sky islands are surrounded at lower elevations by the Sonoran and Chihuahuan deserts. The northern west–east perimeter of the sky island region merges into the higher elevation eastern Mogollon Rim and the White Mountains of eastern Arizona (southern Anasazi region).

The sky islands are the northernmost of the Madrean pine–oak woodlands, and are classified as part of the Sierra Madre Occidental pine–oak forests ecoregion, of the tropical and subtropical coniferous forests biome. The sky islands were isolated from one another and from the pine–oak woodlands of the Sierra Madre Occidental to the south by the warming and drying of the climate since the ice ages.

There are approximately 27 Madrean sky islands in the United States, and 15 in northern Mexico.

Talk:Fritz Julius Kuhn

Untitled
Is Fritz Kuhn Jewish? He has a Hebrew name but, was the leader of American Nazi's...

 * Kuhn is German. Cohen is Hebrew. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.94.186.41 (talk) 09:08, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

shouldn't this be titled "Fritz Kuhn" instead of "Fritz Kuhn (Nazi)"
shouldn't this be titled "Fritz Kuhn" instead of "Fritz Kuhn (Nazi)"?
 * It is Fritz Kuhn (Nazi), because in today Germany a green politican and MP is also named Fritz Kuhn. Kuhn is German surname. Cohn or Cohen would be jewish.
 * The historical source of Kuhn could be Cohn —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.164.244.41 (talk) 09:37, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

Wrong. "Kühn" is a German word meaning "bold." "Cohn" is a Hebrew word meaning "priestly."Lestrade (talk) 22:58, 14 March 2010 (UTC)Lestrade

Picture
There should be a picture that clearly shows which person is him. Or at least show how many people from the right or left is him. I have no idea from the picture which guy is him. Contralya 18:53, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

I have a better picture of him. It is a shot of Times Square on New Years' Eve and Fritz is in the center of the crowd.Lestrade (talk) 22:59, 14 March 2010 (UTC)Lestrade

Re: Isadore Greenbaum
I tagged this sentence because it's not clear whether this refers to the (relatively) well-known incident of a protester being beaten by the Fascist security at the 1939 rally. Or is this passage even important enough to include? (Kuhn is a unpleasant enough character on his own terms; no need to add details of negligible importance.) -- llywrch (talk) 15:50, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

The American Fuhrer and meeting with Adolf Hitler
I cannot be exactly sure of which one is historically correct, but, the article about the German American Bund states that Kuhn never actually met Hitler, and that he self-declared himself as the "American Fuhrer".

Madison Square Garden Bund Rally
It says: Most shocking to American sensibilities was the outbreak of violence between protesters and Bund storm troopers. During his speech, a protester rushed the stage and had to be hauled off by security.

"Most shocking to American sensibilities" is an unsupported attribution, and seems suspicious considering that... according to this film clip description,, there were protesters outside holding signs and being pushed by police. There is no other mention of violence from protesters. The man who rushes the stage attempts to attack Kuhn. The film clip narrator does not refer to him as a protester or as being affiliated with the protesters outside. The man is then brought down and beaten by several Bund members, as is shown in this footage, Bund members were then pulled off of the man by police. The narrator of the film clip claimed that the man was carrying a pistol, but this is not affirmed by the youtube clip.

Tgrgy1107 (talk) 10:27, 20 November 2013 (UTC)

<"22,000 Nazis Hold Rally in Garden; Police Check Foes", The New York Times, February 21, 1939, page 1>== Madison Square Garden Rally - Monday, February 20, 1939 ==

According to The New York Times article on the rally in the February 21, 1939 paper, there was no violence between the Bund and protesters. A "record" deployment of 1,700 police was almost entirely successful. The article says, "Potentially the most serious situation arose when the Bund followers began to stream out the doors when the meeting closed at 11:15. As they passed through the police lines at Fifty-second Street some of the more violent anti-Nazis in the crowd began assaults on individuals.  Policemen quickly broke up those fights and by 12 o'clock Eighth Avenue was as quiet as it usually is at that hour on a midweek midnight."

The article says that there were 13 arrests on minor charges, and eight people treated on-site for injuries, including four police. A man named Peter Saunders who is described as "a Negro" was charged with disorderly conduct and cruelty to animals when his effort to break through police lines with about 500 others failed. Mr. Saunders struck policeman Harold Lee in the jaw and grabbed the bridle of a horse, bruising its mouth. Another protester named George Mason, skin color not identified, grabbed a policemen, then while running away, ran into a restaurant at 756 Eighth Avenue and smashed a plate-glass window.

The article says about the man who went on-stage while Fritz Kuhn was speaking, "As Mr. Kuhn neared the end of his speech a young man in a blue suit made a single-handed attempt to scale the platform. A dozen gray-shirted Bund members grabbed him as he reached the rostrum and threw him to the floor.  Several policemen took charge and carried  him struggling through an opening directly behind the stage.  His trousers were torn off in the process.  The man was taken to the West Forty-seventh Street station, where he gave his name as Isadore Greenbaum and his address as 93 Ten Eyck Walk, Brooklyn.  He was booked on a charge of disorderly conduct." — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.7.48.33 (talk) 14:14, 18 October 2015 (UTC)

Kathy Lette

Kathryn Marie Lette (born 11 November 1958) is an Australian and British author.

Early life
Lette was born on 11 November 1958 in Sydney's southern suburbs.

She appeared in The Sydney Morning Herald of 20 August 1978 pictured in Martin Place with her friend Gabrielle Carey in an article titled "Buskers Lose Freak Tag". They were standing up for buskers' rights not to be moved on as Sydney City Council enforced a 1919 Act of Parliament in New South Wales.

Career
Lette first attracted attention in 1979 as the co-author (with Gabrielle Carey) of Puberty Blues, a strongly autobiographical, teen novel about two 13-year-old southern suburbs girls attempting to improve their social status by ingratiating themselves with the "Greenhills gang" of surfers. The book was made into a film in 1981 and a TV series in 2012.

She subsequently became a newspaper columnist and sitcom writer, but returned to the novel form with Girls' Night Out in 1988 and has since written several more novels and plays, including Foetal Attraction in 1993, Mad Cows in 1996 (which was made into a film starring Joanna Lumley and Anna Friel) and Dead Sexy.

She left Australia for the United Kingdom in 1988 and took British citizenship in 2011.

In 2007, she published the book How to Kill your Husband (and other handy household hints) which was turned into an opera in 2011 by composer Alan John and playwright Timothy Daly; it was premiered at the Victorian Opera, conducted by Richard Gill. The same year, she briefly appeared on Sunrise as a London correspondent, a part of the Global Notebook. In 2008, Lette published To Love, Honour and Betray (Till Divorce Us Do Part), a romantic novel with hints of comedy.

With Jessica Adams, Maggie Alderson and Imogen Edwards-Jones, Lette edited an anthology by prominent women writers of erotic short-stories, In Bed with... (2009), including contributions from Louise Doughty, Esther Freud, Ali Smith, Joan Smith, Rachel Johnson and Fay Weldon, each publishing under a pseudonym.

In April 2009, she contributed to the fourth issue of the literary magazine Notes from the Underground with a piece honouring her close friend John Mortimer. In November 2009, she received an honorary doctorate from Southampton Solent University.

She teamed with Radox to write a water-resistant book, which was released free online in September 2009, with an aim to encourage women to be selfish with their time.

Recognition
In recognition of her many novels and advocacy of equality, human rights, and physical and mental health both nationally and internationally, Lette was awarded an Honorary Doctor of Letters (Honoris Causa) from the University of Wollongong on 20 April 2017.

Personal life
Lette lives in South Hampstead in the London Borough of Camden. She has two children (Julius and Georgina) with fellow Australian expatriate Geoffrey Robertson, whom she met while still married to Kim Williams, when appearing on Robertson's TV panel debate show Hypotheticals. Julius (known as Jules) has Asperger syndrome: he has embarked on a career as an actor, and plays the character of Jason Haynes in Holby City. Lette and Robertson separated in 2017.

She supports the UK Labour Party. In August 2014, she was one of 200 public figures who were signatories to a letter to The Guardian expressing their hope that Scotland would vote to remain part of the United Kingdom in September's referendum on that issue.

Daryl Braithwaite

Daryl Braithwaite (born 11 January 1949) is an Australian singer. He was the lead vocalist of Sherbet (1970–1984 and many subsequent reunions). Braithwaite also has a solo career, placing 15 singles in the Australian top 40, including two number-one hits: "You're My World" (October 1974) and "The Horses" (January 1991). His second studio album, Edge (November 1988), peaked at No. 1 on the ARIA Albums Chart, No. 14 in Norway and No. 24 in Sweden.

In 2017, Braithwaite was inducted into the ARIA Hall of Fame.

Early years
Daryl Braithwaite and his twin brother, Glenn, were born on 11 January 1949 and raised in a working-class family in Melbourne, Australia. His father, a plumber, worked on the Snowy Mountains Scheme in the mid-1950s. Braithwaite attended Punt Road State School and Christ Church Grammar in South Yarra, where the twins sang in the school choir. He later said, "I will always recall the horror of my first solo in the choir singing 'Hark The Herald Angels Sing' when the choir master, Leonard Fullard, gave me a note and then suddenly I was on my own. It was terrifying." In 1961, Braithwaite was in the same class as Olivia Newton-John.

In 1963, his family moved to the Sydney beach-side suburb of Coogee, where he attended Randwick Boys High School until the end of year 10. He then began a fitter-and-turner apprenticeship, set up by his father, which he completed in 1969, but decided that this was not the career path for him and decided to pursue a musical career instead. As a teenager, he sang in various local pop music groups, first with Bright Lights, in 1967, which included Bruce Worrall on bass guitar. Braithwaite and Worrall were both in House of Bricks and then Samael Lilith.

In March 1970, at the age of 21, he joined Sherbet, a pop band that had already released a single, "Crimson Ships". That group had formed in April 1969 with the line-up of Dennis Laughlin on lead vocals (ex-Sebastian Hardie Blues Band, Clapham Junction), Doug Rea on bass guitar (Downtown Roll Band), Sammy See on organ, guitar and vocals (Clapham Junction), Clive Shakespeare on lead guitar and vocals (Downtown Roll Band), and Danny Taylor on drums (Downtown Roll Band). They secured a residency at Jonathon's Disco, playing seven hours a night, four days a week for eight months. Braithwaite was hired as the group's second lead vocalist, but within a few months Laughlin left, and former bandmate Worrall replaced Rea on bass guitar.

Sherbet's second single, "Can You Feel It, Baby?" (September 1971), featured Braithwaite's gritty-but-polished lead vocals and became the group's first national Top-40 hit, on the Go-Set singles chart. According to Australian musicologist Ian McFarlane, Sherbet were "one of the country's biggest bands over the next ten years", and Braithwaite rose to national fame as their lead singer. His soul-influenced vocals and the group's pop styling was heard on a series of singles and albums throughout the 1970s; they provided an additional 19 hits on the national charts in that decade.

Early solo career: 1973–1979
Braithwaite started a parallel solo career alongside his work in Sherbet. In March 1973, he played the lead role in the Australian musical theatre production of the Who's rock opera Tommy. In October of the following year, amidst unfounded rumours that he was leaving Sherbet, he issued his debut single, a cover version of "You're My World", which went to No. 1 for three weeks. The song was certified gold and sold over 90,000 copies in Australia by mid-1975.

His next single, "Cavalry" (August 1975), was co-written with his Sherbet bandmate Tony Mitchell, which reached No. 13 on the Kent Music Report singles chart. "Cavalry" has been a rarity amongst Braithwaite's hits; like his contemporary John Farnham, most of his charting songs have been interpretations of material written by others. Two more top-20 singles followed, "Old Sid" (written by Warren Morgan) backed with Braithwaite's own song "Time" (April 1976) and "Love Has no Pride" (by Eric Kaz and Libby Titus), backed with "Fly Away" which Braithwaite co-wrote with Morgan (February 1977). His next single was a cover of Ronnie Lane and Steve Marriott's song "Afterglow (Of Your Love)", originally recorded by the Small Faces, in October 1977. At the TV Week King of Pop Awards, he was named King of Pop over the three consecutive years from 1975 to 1977.

Braithwaite's solo recordings from 1974 to 1978 appeared only on 7-inch singles. A compilation album of his singles, Daryl Braithwaite... Best Of, was issued in 1978 on Razzle Records/Festival Records. His debut solo studio album, Out on the Fringe, appeared in the following year, at a time when Sherbet had briefly broken up. He recorded that album in the United States with Steve Kipner and Terry Shaddick producing.

Solo career on hold: 1980–1987
By 1980, the members of Sherbet were back together and had renamed themselves The Sherbs. At this point, Braithwaite put his solo career on hold to concentrate on work with his bandmates. However, The Sherbs had only a very few minor hits and broke up in 1984.

Comeback: 1988–1999
In April 1988, Braithwaite began recording his comeback album Edge. This LP featured a somewhat more adult contemporary sound than Braithwaite's previous work, and it spawned four hit singles that returned him to the Australian singles charts after an absence of nearly a decade. Two of these hits, "As the Days Go By" and "All I Do", were penned by Canadian songwriter Ian Thomas; a third, "One Summer", was a Braithwaite original.

Braithwaite went on to have a number of solo hits in the early 1990s, including the Australian No. 1 "The Horses", a cover of a Rickie Lee Jones recording written by Jones and Walter Becker. He also made his first US chart appearance as a solo artist at No. 47 with the 1991 single "Higher Than Hope", a song he co-wrote with Simon Hussey. By the end of 1991, Braithwaite's Rise album had become Australia's biggest-selling album of the year, and Edge had become the best-selling album ever released by Sony Music Australia to that time. The album sold over 300,000 copies in Australia alone.

Braithwaite then worked alongside Jef Scott, Simon Hussey and James Reyne to create the 1992 self-titled album Company of Strangers. Braithwaite sang lead or co-lead vocals on four of the album's tracks, including two Australian top-40 singles: "Motor City (I Get Lost)" (No. 26, 1992) and "Daddy's Gonna Make You a Star" (No. 35, 1993).

His comeback success was somewhat derailed by a 1992 lawsuit, in which his former managers sued Braithwaite for back-payment of fees owing. The suit was successful, and Braithwaite essentially had to give up all the revenue he made from Edge and Rise as well as a portion of the revenue from his next album, 1993's Taste the Salt; and, after a 1994 best-of collection was released, Braithwaite was dropped by his record company. He did not record another album for 12 years.

He was a member of A Current Affair's "Kokoda Challenge" in 1996, where he travelled to Papua New Guinea and did a 100-kilometre, nine-day trek of the Kokoda Trail with other celebrities Angry Anderson, Grant Kenny, Colette Mann and Dermott Brereton to retrace the steps of Australian Diggers to mark the end of World War II, 51 years previously. His own father had served in Papua New Guinea during the war and he wanted to experience something of what he had to endure. He stated that it was the toughest test he had faced: "I was determined to make it, no matter what. But it was really, really hard."

In the interim, Braithwaite toured regularly, and in 1997 he returned to the musical theatre stage in the Melbourne production of Chess. From 1999 onwards, he also resumed occasional touring with a reunited Sherbet.

2005–present
After more than a decade away from the recording studio, Braithwaite featured on the track "The Euphonious Whale" from James Reyne's 2005 album, And the Horse You Rode in On. A new studio album from Braithwaite titled Snapshot appeared later in 2005. It included four songs co-written by Braithwaite, including "See You Around Sometime", which was written with Mark Seymour and had been previously recorded by Seymour for his album One Eyed Man.

In 2006, Braithwaite sang on two new Sherbs tracks specially recorded for a greatest-hits compilation, Super Hits; they were The Sherbs' first new recordings in 22 years. Braithwaite then resumed his solo career with the 2008 release of The Lemon Tree, an album of acoustic reworkings of both solo and Sherbet hits, and a few covers.

In 2007, Braithwaite performed "One Summer" on the soap opera Neighbours.

In 2013, Braithwaite was re-signed by Sony Music Australia. CEO Denis Handlin said in a statement: "Daryl is an icon of the Australian music industry and we are delighted to welcome him home to Sony Music." He released his first album of new material since 2005, titled Forever the Tourist. It featured the lead single "Not Too Late". The album peaked at number 47.

At the ARIA Music Awards of 2017, Braithwaite was inducted into the ARIA Hall of Fame by Jimmy Barnes. To coincide, Sony Music Australia released a new compilation, Days Go By, which debuted at No. 5.

In June 2020, Braithwaite released the single "Love Songs", which became his first top-50 single in 27 years.

On March 4, 2023, Braithwaite joined pop-star, Harry Styles, on stage at the Accor Stadium in Sydney, Australia. Together, the artists performed hit-song "Horses" to an audience of 83,000 fans.

Gaudencio Rosales

Gaudencio Borbón Rosales (born August 10, 1932 ) is a Filipino Roman Catholic Cardinal who was Archbishop of Manila, succeeding Jaime Sin in 2003, and succeeded by Luis Antonio Tagle in 2011. Being the Metropolitan of the ecclesiastical province of Manila, he was the 31st archbishop of Manila and the fourth native Filipino to hold the post, following centuries of Spanish, American, and Irish prelates. During his last year as archbishop, he was concurrently named apostolic administrator of the Diocese of Pasig from December 21, 2010 to June 23, 2011, a post he accepted after the resignation of Pasig's first bishop, Francisco San Diego. He id also the second Longest-lived Filipino Cardinal after Cardinal Sanchez who died in 2012 aged 91 years, 358 days, he will surpass Card. Sanchez's age if he lives to August 3, 2024.

Early life and priestly ministry
Rosales was born in the then-town of Batangas, Batangas. Rosales' grandfathers were Julián Rosales, a former mayor of the town of Batangas and Pablo Borbón, a former provincial governor of Batangas. Rosales' father, Dr. Godofredo Dilay Rosales, was one of the first Filipino physicians to acquire his medical school and residency training exclusively in the United States of America, after which he returned home to practice in Batangas City. Rosales' mother, Remedios Mayo Borbón, was a first cousin of the nationalist Claro M. Recto. He is the third of seven siblings, the others being Rosie, Guillermo (deceased), Gabriel, Tessie, Gilbert and Mary Grace.

He attended his elementary education at Batangas Elementary School and St. Bridget's Grade School and his secondary education at Batangas High School. As a boy, he wanted already to become a priest. He studied theology at the San José Seminary and had as classmates two other future bishops: Bishop Severino Pelayo, later Military Ordinary of the Philippines, and Bishop Benjamin Almoneda, later Bishop of Daet. On March 23, 1958, he was ordained priest by Lipa Bishop Alejandro Olalia and then assigned to teach for 12 years at St. Francis Minor Seminary, the seminary of the Diocese of Lipa. In 1970, he was given his first parish assignment, the St. Vincent Ferrer Parish in the obscure Barangay Banay-banay in Lipa. In 1972, he was assigned as parish priest of the Immaculate Conception Parish in Batangas City.

Bishop
In 1974, Rosales was named auxiliary bishop of Manila, the first Batangueño to be named such. Bishop Rosales received his crosier from the Vicar General of Lipa Venerable Alfredo María Obviar (later Bishop of Lucena) and has used it ever since. He took care of the ecclesiastical district of East Antipolo in Rizal, as well as San Juan, Mandaluyong, and Grace Park in Caloocan. Rosales was consecrated bishop of the titular see of Oescus in a ceremony on October 28, 1974, and in 1980 was appointed rector of the archdiocesan major seminary, San Carlos Seminary. On June 9, 1982, he was named coadjutor bishop of Malaybalay in Bukidnon and was later canonically installed as its second bishop on September 14, 1984, after the resignation of Bishop Francisco F. Claver.

Archbishop of Lipa and of Manila
When Archbishop Mariano Gaviola of Lipa retired, Rosales was appointed his successor on December 30, 1992, bringing the latter back to the diocese where he began his ministry. With the announced retirement of Cardinal Jaime Sin, Rosales was named archbishop of Manila by Pope John Paul II on September 15, 2003. He was installed on November 21, 2003.

Cardinal
Rosales's elevation to the College of Cardinals was announced on February 22, 2006. Archbishop Antonio Franco, the Apostolic Nuncio, personally made the announcement at Manila Cathedral during a Mass for the 40th anniversary of the Focolare Movement.

Pope Benedict XVI created Rosales cardinal-priest of Santissimo Nome di Maria in Via Latina in the consistory of March 24, 2006. Rosales joined 14 others, two of them Asians, as the newest members of the College of Cardinals. Pope Benedict told the new cardinals, "I want to sum up the meaning of this new call that you have received in the word which I placed at the heart of my first Encyclical: caritas. This matches well the color of your cardinal's robes. May the scarlet that you now wear always express the caritas Christi, inspiring you to a passionate love for Christ, for his Church and for all humanity." A little later, Benedict added, "I am counting on you, dear Brother Cardinals, to ensure that the principle of love will spread far and wide, and will give new life to the Church at every level of her hierarchy, in every group of the faithful, in every religious institute, in every spiritual, apostolic or humanitarian initiative."

On February 3, 2007, Rosales was appointed for a five-year term on the 15-member Council of Cardinals for the Study of Organizational and Economic Concerns of the Apostolic See. In 2008, Cardinal Rosales offered his resignation from the governance of the archdiocese, as required under canon law on reaching the age of 75, but Cardinal Giovanni Battista Re communicated that the Holy See had not accepted it. In the same year also, Cardinal Rosales invited Pope Benedict XVI to visit the Philippines, being the third largest Catholic nation in the world; however, the pope declined due to heavy schedule.

Four months after his 79th birthday, Rosales resigned as Archbishop of Manila and he was succeeded by the then-Bishop of Imus, Luis Antonio Tagle upon the latter's installation on December 12, 2011. On August 10, 2012, along with the celebration of his 80th birthday, he lost his eligibility to vote on any future conclaves and thus, did not participate in the 2013 conclave that elected Pope Francis.

Government
Archbishop Rosales expressed support for charter change but condemned politicians pushing their personal agenda in amending the constitution. When the state of national emergency was proclaimed, he would ask Filipinos to pray for peace and unity in the country and expressed hopes that the government will not abuse and curtail the rights of the people.

National Statistics Office
In 2007, Cardinal Rosales argued against the National Statistics Office (NSO) requirement that all solemnizing officers/priests undergo training before conducting wedding ceremonies. He said: "We understand the concern of the National Statistics Office (NSO) because we also know of abuses done by the so-called ministers of the Gospel (not priests), but they should not be like that to us, as if we know nothing."

Gay parades
In 2008, Rosales clashed with Ang Ladlad founder Danton Remoto on the subject of allowing gays to participate, in drag, in the Flores de Mayo celebration. Rosales threatened parishes that permit cross-dressing homosexuals to play Saint Helena or female saints in the Santacruzan or Flores de Mayo procession with official punishment and removal from Mass.

Implementing Summorum Pontificum
The guidelines that Rosales wrote for implementing the 2007 motu proprio Summorum Pontificum were reported to have been criticized by Darío Castrillón Hoyos, President of the Ecclesia Dei Commission, as too restrictive. Rosales denied that he had forbidden use of the "Traditional Latin Mass" in his archdiocese, saying he had only opposed celebration by priests of the dissident Society of St. Pius X.

Abortion
On September 16, 2010, Cardinal Rosales issued a pastoral letter expressing the Catholic Church’s condemnation of abortion and recalling the excommunication imposed by the Church on those who procure it or help others to do so. "A deliberately procured abortion is a moral evil and the Catholic Church attaches the canonical penalty of excommunication on those who procure it and on those who help obtain abortion", the pastoral letter read.

Auxiliary bishops
Below is the list of auxiliary bishops who served during Rosales' term as Archbishop of Manila. The auxiliary bishops are also Vicars-General of the archdiocese.
 * Socrates Villegas (2003–2004) (later installed as Bishop of Balanga)
 * Bernardino Cortez (2004–2011)
 * Broderick Soncuaco Pabillo (2006–2011)

Vicars-general
Aside from the auxiliary bishops, the following priests served as vicars-general of Manila during Rosales' time.
 * Josefino Ramirez (2003–2010)
 * Francisco Tantoco (2004–2011)

Pearl Street Station

Pearl Street Station was Thomas Edison's first commercial power plant in the United States. It was located at 255–257 Pearl Street in the Financial District of Manhattan in New York City, just south of Fulton Street on a site measuring 50 by. The station was built by the Edison Illuminating Company, under the direction of Francis Upton, hired by Thomas Edison.

History
Pearl Street Station consumed coal for fuel; it began with six 100 kW dynamos, and it started generating electricity on September 4, 1882, serving an initial load of 400 lamps to 82 customers. By 1884, Pearl Street Station was serving 508 customers with 10,164 lamps. Electricity was supplied at 110V DC.

The station was originally powered by custom-made Porter-Allen high-speed steam engines designed to provide 175 horsepower at 700 rpm, but these proved to be unreliable with their sensitive governors. They were removed and replaced with new engines from Armington & Sims that proved to be much more suitable for Edison's dynamos.

Pearl Street Station served what was known as the "First District" (bounded clockwise from north by Spruce Street, the East River, Wall Street, and Nassau Street). This was the world's first underground urban network. The district, so named because of its importance in the history of electric power, contained several other power stations such as the Excelsior Power Company Building. The station burned down in 1890, destroying all but one dynamo that is now kept in the Greenfield Village Museum in Dearborn, Michigan. It was rebuilt, and ran till 1895, when it was decommissioned, since larger and more efficient plants had been built nearby.

Scale models
In 1929 the Edison Company constructed three scale working models of the station. When a button was pushed, a motor turned the engines, generators, and other equipment in the model. A set of lamps connected to labelled buttons identified the various areas of the building. Cut-outs in the side of the model building allowed examination of the boilers on the first level, reciprocating steam engines and dynamos on the reinforced second level, and the control and test gear on the third and fourth levels. The models were constructed to a scale of one-half inch to the foot and were 62 inches long, 34 inches high and 13 inches wide. The models still exist and are on display at the Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of American History in Washington, D.C.; at the Consolidated Edison Learning Center in Long Island City, New York; and at the Henry Ford Museum in Dearborn, Michigan. Up to 31 people worked on constructing the models which took about 6 months to complete.

A new user right for New Page Patrollers
Hi.

A new user group, New Page Reviewer, has been created in a move to greatly improve the standard of new page patrolling. The user right can be granted by any admin at PERM. It is highly recommended that admins look beyond the simple numerical threshold and satisfy themselves that the candidates have the required skills of communication and an advanced knowledge of notability and deletion. Admins are automatically included in this user right.

It is anticipated that this user right will significantly reduce the work load of admins who patrol the performance of the patrollers. However,due to the complexity of the rollout, some rights may have been accorded that may later need to be withdrawn, so some help will still be needed to some extent when discovering wrongly applied deletion tags or inappropriate pages that escape the attention of less experienced reviewers, and above all, hasty and bitey tagging for maintenance. User warnings are available here but very often a friendly custom message works best.

If you have any questions about this user right, don't hesitate to join us at WT:NPR. (Sent to all admins) .MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 13:47, 15 November 2016 (UTC)

German submarine U-852

German submarine U-852 was a Type IXD2 U-boat built for Nazi Germany's Kriegsmarine during World War II. The submarine, which was a special long-range version of the Type IX, had four bow and two stern torpedo tubes and a Focke-Achgelis Fa 330 Bachstelze cable-towed lookout gyroglider. It was laid down in Bremen and completed in June 1943. She was commanded by Kapitänleutnant Heinz-Wilhelm Eck, who led her through her sea trials and onto her first war patrol on 18 January 1944.

Eck and his officers were the only Kriegsmarine submariners to be tried for war crimes at the end of World War II in Europe. They were convicted at a British military tribunal in Hamburg, (held concurrently during the Nuremberg Trials) for killing the survivors of the torpedoed Greek steamer SS Peleus in 1944.

Design
German Type IXD2 submarines were considerably larger than the original Type IXs. U-852 had a displacement of 1610 t when at the surface and 1799 t while submerged. The U-boat had a total length of 87.58 m, a pressure hull length of 68.50 m, a beam of 7.50 m, a height of 10.20 m, and a draught of 5.35 m. The submarine was powered by two MAN M 9 V 40/46 supercharged four-stroke, nine-cylinder diesel engines plus two MWM RS34.5S six-cylinder four-stroke diesel engines for cruising, producing a total of 9000 PS for use while surfaced, and two Siemens-Schuckert 2 GU 345/34 double-acting electric motors producing a total of 1000 shp for use while submerged. She had two shafts and two 1.85 m propellers. The boat was capable of operating at depths of up to 200 m.

The submarine had a maximum surface speed of 20.8 kn and a maximum submerged speed of 6.9 kn. When submerged, the boat could operate for 121 nmi at 2 kn; when surfaced, she could travel 12750 nmi at 10 kn. U-852 was fitted with six 53.3 cm torpedo tubes (four fitted at the bow and two at the stern), 24 torpedoes, one 10.5 cm SK C/32 naval gun, 150 rounds, and a 3.7 cm SK C/30 with 2575 rounds as well as two 2 cm C/30 anti-aircraft guns with 8100 rounds. The boat had a complement of fifty-five.

Peleus
In early 1944, the Kriegsmarine dispatched U-852 on a top-secret mission to disrupt the Allies' Far East war effort by attacking sea lanes in the Indian Ocean. However, to do this successfully the submarine would have to maintain a high-level of secrecy throughout her journey from Europe. On 13 March while crossing the latitude of Freetown in the Atlantic Ocean, the U-boat spotted the lone Greek steamer SS Peleus. Eck, despite his mission, decided to attack the ship. After stalking her until nightfall, the steamer was sunk with two torpedoes.

However, the sinking of the Peleus had created a large debris field containing survivors in rafts and clinging to wreckage. Eck decided that this would indicate to any Allied shipping patrol aircraft there was a U-boat in the area, so he ordered his junior officers to destroy the wreckage by firing into it using hand grenades and automatic weapons. They did this while the rest of the crew remained below decks. There were only three survivors from the 35-man Peleus.

Dahomian
Two weeks later the U-852 sank the British cargo ship Dahomian off Cape Town on 1 April. This time the U-852 left rather than attack the survivors.

Capture
On 30 April 1944, U-852 was spotted in the Indian Ocean by a Vickers Wellington bomber flying from Aden. After being left unable to dive due to damage from aerial depth charges, she headed for the coast of Somalia. However, before reaching land the U-boat came under attack from six RAF bombers from 621 Squadron. Eck was forced to run aground on a coral reef (9.53333°N, 50.98333°W) about 20 km from shore. Seven crewmen were lost in the engagement; the remainder fled ashore. Fifty-eight were captured by the Somaliland Camel Corps and local militia.

A British boarding party examined the wrecked U-boat and retrieved Eck's Kriegstagebuch ("War Diary"), which proved crucial in constructing the Allied case against him and his men. The British also discovered the Fa 330 Bachstelze rotor kite, a towed one-man aerial observation platform.

War crimes trial
In November 1945, Eck and the U-852's four junior officers were tried by the British at a special military tribunal in Hamburg for killing the crew from the Peleus. The German commander said he carried out the attack because there might have been communications equipment on the survivors’ rafts and the Laconia Order forbade him from helping the crews of sunk enemy ships. However, the British tribunal rejected his plea of “operational necessity” and sentenced him to death. Despite claiming they were "only following orders", the boat's second-in-command, August Hoffmann, and Walter Weisspfennig, the ship's doctor (who was condemned for using a weapon in contravention of the Geneva Convention) were also given the death penalty.

Hans Lenz, the engineering officer, who had opposed Eck's order but eventually carried it out was given a life sentence (but was released seven years later, in 1952). Wolfgang Schwender, an enlisted engineer, who said he only shot at debris not survivors - until being replaced by the reluctant Lenz - received 15 years (but was released six years later, in 1951). On 30 November 1945, Eck, Hoffmann and Weisspfennig were executed by naval firing squad.
