50,000,000 Elvis Fans Can't Be Wrong: Elvis' Gold Records, Volume 2

50,000,000 Elvis Fans Can't Be Wrong: Elvis' Gold Records, Volume 2 (or simply known as Elvis' Gold Records, Volume 2) is the fourth compilation album by American singer and musician Elvis Presley, issued by RCA Victor  in November 1959. It is a compilation of hit singles released in 1958 and 1959 by Presley, from recording sessions going back as far as February 1957.

Elvis' Gold Records, Vol. 2 peaked at number 31 on the Billboard Top Pop Albums chart. It was certified by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) for a Gold Record Award (based on $1,000,000 in wholesale sales) on November 1, 1966. It was certified for a Platinum Record Award for sales of one million copies in the US on March 27, 1992.

Title
There has long been some confusion over the actual title of this album. The title is shown on the original record's labels as Elvis' Gold Records, Vol. 2, with a comma and an abbreviation of "Volume", but on the jacket, it appears as Elvis' Gold Records – Volume 2. The phrase "50,000,000 Elvis Fans Can't Be Wrong" does not appear on the labels on any of the original records, and it is the title of the records on the labels—not the jacket—that is usually given preference when conflicting titles appear on albums. Therefore, the phrase was not part of the original title of the album. Beginning no later than 1962, RCA Victor added "50,000,000 Elvis Fans Can't Be Wrong" to the labels of a few mono records and to the then newly released "electronically reprocessed stereo" records. The boasting on the label appears nearly exclusive to records manufactured at RCA Victor's Hollywood pressing plant; copies pressed at the other plants tended to use the proper title only. The "50,000,000" phrase remained there for several years, but by 1968, it was removed from the new orange RCA Victor labels and was not found on any record labels for years afterward. The phrase was added again to the first compact disc releases of this album in 1984, where it has remained.

Content
Elvis' Gold Records, Vol. 2 consists of both sides of five singles released during 1958 and 1959. Two sides made number 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, and six others reached the Top 10. In the 1950s, a Gold Record awarded to a single required certified sales of one million copies in the United States. This is different from the definition in use since the 1990s, when a Gold Record for a single was reduced to sales of 500,000 units.

Reissues
RCA first reissued the original 10 track album on compact disc in 1984; this issue, in reprocessed (fake) stereo sound was quickly withdrawn and the disc was reissued again in original monophonic. RCA reissued the album again in 1997 in a 20 track expanded edition, adding one A-side ("Hard Headed Woman") and one B-side ("Playing For Keeps"), along with tracks from top-selling EPs (e.g., "Peace In The Valley"). Several of those EP tracks were hit singles in other countries, notably the UK (i.e., "Santa Bring My Baby Back To Me"). The bonus tracks are interspersed within the original tracks, with the original running order of the album substantially altered.

The unified Billboard Hot 100 singles chart was not created until August, 1958. Chart positions for records (below) prior to this date were taken from the magazine's "Best Sellers in Stores" chart. In some cases, the early measurement of success of rock and roll records also came from the "Most Played on Jukeboxes" chart. Chart positions (below) for the bonus tracks on the CDs were taken from the peak position that the EP album achieved on Billboard's then extant EP chart (1957–60).

Legacy
The famous cover photo, of multiple images of Elvis wearing the gold lamé suit designed by Nudie's of Hollywood, has been copied many times. Album covers so inspired include:
 * Phil Ochs' Greatest Hits album of 1970; not a "greatest hits" album at all but consisting of new original material, subtitled on the back cover "50 Phil Ochs Fans Can't Be Wrong!"
 * The 1983 album by Rod Stewart, Body Wishes;
 * The Elvis Costello & The Attractions bootleg album of the same name from the 1980s.
 * Blues Traveler's more modest 1,000,000 People Can't Be Wrong of 1994.
 * Blumfeld's second studio album L'Etat Et Moi from 1995.
 * The Fall's compilation 50,000 Fall Fans Can't Be Wrong from 2004.
 * 100,000,000 Bon Jovi Fans Can't Be Wrong, also from 2004.
 * 50,000,000 Soulwax Fans Can't Be Wrong from 2005.

The meme has also been adopted to other media, such as:
 * The 1982 bootleg Elvis' Greatest Shit, a compilation of tracks and out-takes that the bootlegger considered among Presley's worst recordings, is subtitled "50,000,000 Elvis Fans Can Be Wrong".
 * The second album by the group Dread Zeppelin, which is fronted by an Elvis impersonator, from 1991 is titled 5,000,000 in reference to this album; the footnote says "*Tortelvis Fans Can't Be Wrong." The cover more obviously parodies Led Zeppelin's fourth album.
 * The title used verbatim in the lyrics to "The Thanksgiving Song", by Adam Sandler in 1993.
 * The 1997 documentary by Joe Franklin 50,000,000 Joe Franklin Fans Can't Be Wrong.
 * Marilyn Manson's 1998 book The Long Hard Road Out of Hell contains a chapter entitled "Fifty Million Screaming Christians Can't Be Wrong".
 * Mindless Self Indulgence's song "You'll Rebel To Anything" from their 2005 album of the same name contains the lyrics, "you're telling me that 50,000,000 screaming fans are never wrong, I'm telling you that 50,000,000 screaming fans are fucking morons".
 * Die! Die! Die!'s self-titled debut features a song named "Franz (17 Die! Die! Die! Fans Can't Be Wrong)" in 2006.
 * Stephan Pastis, author of comic strip Pearls Before Swine, released a collection in 2010 titled "50,000,000 Pearls Fans Can't Be Wrong."
 * In 2013, the band Supersuckers released a free digital EP entitled 50,000 Middle Fingers Can't Be Wrong.
 * Doc Yewll references this album while talking with T'evgin in the Defiance 3rd-season episode, The Last Unicorns.
 * The Caroline Says album of the same name from 2017.

Title meanings
The blurb "50,000,000 Elvis Fans Can't Be Wrong" that became an on-and-off part of the album's title originated with a one-page article titled "Can Fifty Million Americans Be Wrong" by Les Brown that appeared in the September 19, 1956, issue of Down Beat magazine. The article was an unfavorable look at Elvis and his fans, with Brown bemoaning the lack of appreciation of the "fine talents" of Jeri Southern, Dick Haymes, and "other serious vocal artists." The article concludes, "The educational responsibility seems to fall mainly on the disc jockey, who still has the greatest proximity to, and the greatest influence over, the record-buying public. Fifty million Americans can easily be misled." The article was written in response to a statement from Steve Sholes, Elvis' producer, estimating that fifty million Elvis Presley records had been sold over the course of his career up to that point. Sholes said: "Every record Elvis has ever made for us has sold over a million. Since January, 1956, we've sold 50 million Elvis Presley records in this country alone, not counting foreign sales or albums."

The expression "Fifty Million Frenchmen Can't Be Wrong," originating in a 1927 song by Willie Raskin, Billy Rose, and Fred Fisher and performed by Sophie Tucker, predated its use in Brown's article. The song prompted the creation of a popular snowclone about fifty million people being wrong. Methodist pastor J. Resler Shultz of Harrisburg, PA, used "Can fifty million Americans be wrong" as the title of a sermon in 1931. Articles with similar titles have appeared somewhat frequently since that time—some being about food, politics, or religion.

Talk:Standard basis

Ordered basis
A basis: isn't the usual convention to take an ordered basis? Well, I think it is in the finite-dimensional case, anyway. This becomes awkward in other cases, though. Charles Matthews 16:49, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Ordered and orthonormal basis
I added a section in which I explaied that a standard basis is an ordered and orthonormal basis, but not necessarily vice versa. This can be deduced from the definition given in the introduction. So, it is a property, and I prefer to keep it separated from the definition (provided in the introduction). Paolo.dL (talk) 21:51, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

Misconception about Euclidean space
The definition of a standard basis given here (see the lead) makes the assumption that a Euclidean space is defined by or has a unique Cartesian coordinate system. In general, a coordinate system for a Euclidean space is not unique any more than an orthogonal basis is unique. Hence, a standard basis (in the sense of this article) is only defined in terms of a specified Cartesian coordinate system, and does not exist for the general (coordinate-independent) Euclidean space. The article will have to be reworded with this in mind; I'm not sure whether I will do this. — Quondum☏ 09:25, 7 April 2012 (UTC)

The sentence "where ei denotes the vector with a 1 in the $$i$$th coordinate and 0's elsewhere". Last sentence in the first paragraph.
Sentence needs rephrasing or clarification. It's very poor and hard to understand. To me at least. I had to read it five times although it's very simple. 1Minow (talk) 22:25, 25 March 2014 (UTC)

 * Can you suggest something better? It is difficult to see how to improve it. —Quondum 04:09, 26 March 2014 (UTC)

 * Well at least we could add an example matrix. I don't have much ideas. That's why I asked. ...Terribly sorry about the wrong edit. I didn't know. Thanks for correcting. 1Minow (talk) 18:03, 26 March 2014 (UTC)

Single-entry matrix merge
It was suggested back in November 2019 that Single-entry matrix should merge here. Perhaps, but does a Single-entry matrix have to be a Standard basis? For example, (0,1) is a single-entry matrix, but is (0,2)? If so, then perhaps sparse matrix is a better target. Klbrain (talk) 09:02, 19 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Closing, given the absence of support for the proposal (over the course of a year). Klbrain (talk) 11:02, 14 September 2020 (UTC)

3D Vector figure is potentially confusing
In terms of 3D visualization, the vector diagram 3D_Vector.svg can be a little confusing at first (it was for me) regarding the fact that vector j appears to end at component vector az. Since this is actually a static 2D picture, it's all too easy for a puny human brain to misinterpret that and thus perceive those two vectors as intersecting, and a, az, and j as all lying in the y,z plane, rather than perceiving vector a as jutting out towards the viewer. If the standard basis vectors were shortened a bit (or ay lengthened slightly) so that there was some space between az and the end of j, I think that would help vector a appear unambiguously 3D for most viewers, and thus make clearer what is going on in the diagram. — skoosh (háblame) 13:59, 12 July 2023 (UTC)

Ex-Mormon

Ex-Mormon or post-Mormon refers to a disaffiliate of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church) or any of its schismatic breakoffs, collectively called "Mormonism". Ex-Mormons—sometimes referred to as exmo or postmo —may neither believe in nor affiliate with the LDS Church. In contrast, Jack Mormons may believe but do not affiliate; and cultural Mormons may or may not affiliate but do not believe in certain doctrines or practices of the LDS Church. The distinction is important to a large segment of ex-Mormons, many of whom consider their decision to leave as morally compelling and socially risky. According to 2014 Pew data, around 1/3 of adults raised LDS no longer adhere to the faith (up from around 10% in the 1970s and 1980s) and in 2008 only 25% of LDS young adults were actively involved. Many ex-Mormons experience troubles with family members who still follow Mormon teachings. Aggregations of ex-Mormons may comprise a social movement.

Reasons for leaving
Most ex-Mormons leave Mormonism and the LDS or RLDS Church because of intellectual reasons for finding the religion false or practices of Mormon organizations. The foremost reasons are disbelief both in Joseph Smith as a prophet and in the Book of Mormon as a religious and historical document. Reasons for this disbelief include issues with anthropological, linguistic, archaeological, and genetic evidence against the Book of Mormon in the New World. In addition to rejecting the Book of Mormon for such reasons, the Book of Abraham and other Mormon religious texts are rejected on similar grounds. A study of 3000 people who were formerly affiliated with the LDS Church recorded that 74 percent of respondents cited a disbelief in church doctrine or theology as major reason for leaving the church, but only 4 percent of respondents cited conflict with other church members as a large factor in their decision to leave. Also, just 4 percent claimed that a significant reason for apostasy was dissatisfaction with the rules of conduct professed by the LDS Church. This corroborates the assertion that many Mormons are satisfied with the communal aspect and attributes of LDS Church life. A 2023 survey of over 1,000 former church members in the Mormon corridor found the following top three reported reasons for disafilliation: 1. History related to Joseph Smith; 2. The Book of Mormon; and 3. Race issues in the church.

Individuals leave Mormonism for a variety of reasons, although "single reason disaffiliates are rare among former Mormons." Research shows that 43 percent of ex-Mormon left due to unmet spiritual needs. Other reasons for leaving may include a belief that they are in a cult, logical or intellectual appraisal, belief changes or differences, spiritual conversion to another faith, life crises, and poor or hurtful responsiveness by Mormon leaders or congregations. Of former Mormons surveyed, 58 percent switched to other faiths or practices.

Those who adopt humanist or feminist perspectives may view certain Mormon doctrines (including past teachings on the spiritual status of black people, polygamy, and the role of women in society) as racist or sexist.

A minority of ex-Mormons cite their personal incompatibility with Mormon beliefs or culture. A 2003 Princeton Review publication quoted a student at church-owned Brigham Young University as stating, "the nonconformist will find a dull social life with difficulty finding someone that will be their friend, regardless of who they are or what they believe." Liberal views and political attitudes that challenge this conformity, and occasionally sexual orientation, are cited as reasons for leaving Mormonism.

In recent years, the LDS Church has become more politically active, particularly with regard to legislation barring civil marriage for same-sex couples. Official church involvement in the California Proposition 8 campaign was highly controversial, causing some Mormons to stop attending church.

Post-disaffiliation issues
After their decision to leave Mormonism and the LDS Church, ex-Mormons typically go through an adjustment period as they re-orient their lives religiously, socially, and psychologically.

Religious
An online poll of ex-Mormons found that a majority of ex-Mormons do not self-identify as a member of another faith tradition, choosing to describe themselves as agnostic, atheist or simply ex-Mormon. Some can also become apatheist. A Pew Research report corroborated this, finding in 2015 that 36% of those born Mormon left the religion, with 21% of born Mormons (58% of ex-Mormons) now unaffiliated, 6% evangelical Protestant, and 9% converting to other Protestant, Catholic, or a non-Christian faith. Others either retained belief in God but not in organized religion or became adherents of other faiths. Among ex-Mormons with no current religious preference, 36 percent continued the practice of prayer often or daily. Ex-Mormon attitudes toward Mormons and Mormonism vary widely. Some ex-Mormons actively proselytize against Mormonism, while some provide only support to others leaving the religion. Other ex-Mormons prefer to avoid the subject entirely, while still others may try to encourage healthy dialogue between adherents of their new faiths and active Mormons. Attitudes of ex-Mormons also differ regarding their church membership. Some formally resign by mailing resignation letters to request the removal of their church membership records, which the LDS Church refers to as "name removal", while others simply stop attending church services.

Social
Ex-Mormons who publicly leave Mormonism often face social stigmatization. Although many leave to be true to themselves or to a new belief structure, they leave at a cost; many leave feeling ostracized and pressured and miss out on major family events such as temple weddings. Family members of some may express only disappointment and sorrow and try to reach out in understanding to their new belief system or lack thereof. Some stay under threat of divorce from spouses who still believe. Still, many ex-Mormons have given up spouses, children, and the ability to enter Mormon temples to witness important life events of family members. Ex-Mormons in geographic locations away from major enclaves of Mormon culture such as Utah may experience less stigmatization, however.

Psychological
Many ex-Mormons go through a psychological process as they leave Mormonism. Former Mormon Bob McCue described his disaffiliation as recovery from cognitive dissonance. Reynolds reports that leaving involves a period of intense self-doubt and depression as disaffiliates confront feelings of betrayal and loneliness, followed by self-discovery, belief exploration, spiritual guidance and connection as they leave Mormonism. He argues that leaving may provide a renewed sense of self, confidence and peace. One ex-Mormon compared his disaffiliation experience to leaving a cult, while others called it close to overcoming mind control or adjusting to life outside of religious fundamentalism. Still others compare their symptoms to divorce from marriage. Ex-Mormons may also have to cope with the pain of ostracism by Mormon employers, friends, spouses, and family members.

Ex-Mormon organizations
Many formerly LDS individuals seek community and discussion about their former beliefs in online and in-person groups. Some of these international groups include the ex-Mormon page on Reddit (with over 300,000 subscribers) as well as various group listings on the Mormon Spectrum website. Localized groups include the SLC Postmos meetup and Facebook group (with over 2,000 members) and Utah Valley Postmos meetup and Facebook group (over 900 members). The ex-Mormon subreddit gained publicity with its involvement leaking LDS documents.

Latter-day Saint views of ex-Mormons
Latter-day Saints generally hope ex-Mormons will return to activity in the church.

Demographics
According to a BYU Studies article, as of 2014, about one-third of those with a Latter-day Saint background have left the Church. Of those who leave the Church, about 58% switch to no religion or unaffiliated; 18% switch to evangelical Protestant groups; 8% went to Mainline Protestant denominations; 10% went to generic Christianity; and 6% went to "other".

Academic Performance
To whoever removed the section on academic performance: Why? Sure, it isn't something Mansfield should be proud of, but this article is neither a prospectus nor an advertisment. If you have a good reason, please share it. Till then - your change has been reverted.

Sister college?
Why does Mansfield not have a sister college? It does! Homerton.

Although, having seens what's left to sister with, I'm quite happy with it being an only child.

 * It seems obvious that Westminster College, Cambridge be the sister college to Mansfield (both being of non-conformist foundation which later became the United Reformed Church), but this remains to be confirmed. What's so wrong with being Dannii to Kylie? – Kaihsu 09:12, 13 June 2006 (UTC)

No, Mansfield doesn't have a sister college - this has proved unfortunate for past MCR events when Oxbridge exchange dinners have been attempted and the MCR just had to get in touch with random Cambridge colleges. Remember that there are fewer colleges at Cambridge than at Ox. --Treefox 15:45, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

Oh, and Westminster isn't actually a Cambridge college... --Treefox 15:45, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

Though from an historical perspective, Homerton College, Cam would make logical sense as a sister college. --Treefox 16:00, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

Could do better
This page reads like it was written by the JCR. "The Kylie Minogue of colleges"? "The college porters are also notable characters"? For god's sake.

Why is there no mention of Champneys's chapel, which is a highly regarded example of late-Victorian Gothic?

Why does the list of alumni include some nonentity that writes for a Nintendo magazine?

Even Heaven's Gate doesn't get a mention, which I would have thought would be trivial enough for this entry.

Beta minus 81.19.57.146 11:31, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

Every wikipedia entry for an Oxford College is written by some bored JCR member... Treefox 08:43, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

Much of the article reads more like a prospectus than an encyclopaedia. 163.1.99.59 (talk) 18:41, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

Notable former students
It seems to me that Adam von Trott zu Solz wasn't a student at Mansfield College but at Balliol College.
 * To be honest, I don't care what it "seems". He is an alumnus of this college. Malcolm Starkey 00:00, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

 * As I understand it, he did his BA at Balliol, then studied theology at Mansfield, which was fairly typical for students in the college's early days. Treefox 16:41, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

Access
Regarding the point made in this edit, I think it may be slightly overstated. It simply is not true that all other Oxbridge colleges require access through the porter's lodge; indeed, at Cambridge, all of the colleges that lie on The Backs, for example, have at least one formal access point by design that is not the porter's lodge. Similarly, my own college of Peterhouse has two other access points, again by design. - Sitush (talk) 04:11, 4 October 2018 (UTC)

To clarify, I think it may not even be true that most require access through the lodge. Certainly, in the case of Cambridge. Perhaps the problem lies more in the edit summary than the text but my own somewhat hazy memories of Oxford suggest that the Cambridge experience applies to a significant number of Oxford colleges also. - Sitush (talk) 04:18, 4 October 2018 (UTC)

 * I believe there may be a conflict between the official rules (especially at night, but also for non-members) and the facts in practice. Certainly as an undergrad I knew how to get into almost any college. However, they tightened things up at The House, for example, after they started charging tourists for admission. Yngvadottir (talk) 08:55, 4 October 2018 (UTC)

 * Perhaps they have tightened things up but that has nothing to do with design (I was back at Cambridge for a few days in August and had to face-off a very annoyed person with someone from the States who didn't like the fact that I and my partner could avoid paying the entry fee at King's due to me being a member of the university! I had visions of Trump tweeting about it, especially when the porter told them where to go - which was, in short, the airport. Never get on the wrong side of a porter!) - Sitush (talk) 18:20, 6 October 2018 (UTC)

Admission of women
I scoured the internet for a usable reference for that 1979 date (which fits my recollections), but didn't find one. I remember there was an article in The Times, so probably this is an archives access problem. Hence I left the oral history reference in place; I hope someone with access to either paper or paywalled online archives can get us a reliable source. Our article on the university cites this archived university page, which is still online substantially unchanged and doesn't give the 1979 date in either version. There are a couple of scholarly articles mentioning it; I should add one there, but I didn't find one that was more explicit than that "almost all" colleges changed to co-education that year, and Mansfield was still a hall at that time so is particularly unlikely to have been listed. Yngvadottir (talk) 08:55, 4 October 2018 (UTC)

 * I have checked The Times online archive and also the Guardian but cannot spot anything. I am surprised but perhaps it is a problem with the searching algorithm because I then tried to search for my own name and that, too, did not appear even though I could find it when I went to the relevant pages on the relevant dates. - Sitush (talk) 18:35, 6 October 2018 (UTC)
 * Had a look, couldn't find anything, but did find Theodore Mander"one of the founding benefactors of Mansfield College", one-time mayor of Wolverhampton, who died aged 47 in 1901 "following an operation on his kitchen table". Xanthomelanoussprog (talk) 20:16, 6 October 2018 (UTC)
 * Somehow failed to make the connection- he's a member of the Mander family. Xanthomelanoussprog (talk) 06:24, 7 October 2018 (UTC)

George and Elizabeth Mansfield
Job adverts by the college have this pair as the founders, but it's unclear whether they founded Spring Hill College or Mansfield College, or purchased the land for the new college or solely acted as benefactors. Xanthomelanoussprog (talk) 10:51, 4 October 2018 (UTC)
 * The book I added as a source—I think I can see it all, but can you?—says on p. 3, at the start of its history, "Spring Hill College, Birmingham, was founded by the late George Storer Mansfield and his sisters, Mrs. Sarah Glover and Miss Elizabeth Mansfield." I was unable to find a statement that that was why it was renamed to "Mansfield" when it moved, but I may just have missed that. Yngvadottir (talk) 13:25, 4 October 2018 (UTC)
 * Thanks. The plot thickens. According to "The Modern Pulpit Viewed in Its Relation to the State of Society" by Robert Vaughan, George accumulated a lot of property (he may have lived in Derby, may have been a currier and may have held property in Quorndon, Rothley and Mountsorrel, Leicestershire). He bequeathed all his property to his sisters in his will. The sisters were "more concerned to see their brother a man of piety, than to become possessed of his wealth". They set to praying, as their brother had a "practical disregard of religion" and, lo and behold, he did develop "a habit of enlightened and fervent devotedness to the service of God". He then "appropriated" the whole of his estate "and some other properties" to establish the Independent College at Spring Hill. Vaughan was writing in 1842, by which time Mansfield had died. However, there appears to be another side to the story (halfway down this page!, where the college appears to be the brainchild of Rev. Timothy East, later accused of embezzling by the sisters. Xanthomelanoussprog (talk) 20:06, 4 October 2018 (UTC)
 * The version in the 1890 book resembles that in the forum post as far as East's role in suggesting endowing a college, and presents moving out of the house earlier than required as being the sisters' idea (also p. 3). The next mention of East that Google indexes is p. 16, where he is said to have resigned as college treasurer and chair of the Committee of Management after "a very few years" because of "severe indisposition" which had made him unable to perform his duties. The writer says "his connection with the college ceased" after that. So if the laundry was dirty it's been left out of sight. The short time is listed as 1838–1843, but his successor served 20 years. Yngvadottir (talk) 20:59, 4 October 2018 (UTC)
 * Not been able to access the 1890 online (though there's a copy about a mile away from me). East is in the National Portrait Gallery here. Lived to 1871, died age 88, so that "severe indisposition" didn't prevent him living another 28 years! Xanthomelanoussprog (talk) 21:36, 4 October 2018 (UTC)
 * It seems that East played a part in the Chartist movement, according to Birmingham Library's blog. Just found a transcript of the sisters versus East case; they claim they gave East £37,000 from liquidating their properties and investments, of which £20,000 was intended for the college.

William Scranton III

William Worthington Scranton III (born July 20, 1947) is an American politician who served as the 26th lieutenant governor of Pennsylvania from 1979 to 1987 in the administration of Governor Richard Thornburgh. He is the son of the late Pennsylvania Governor William Scranton, and a member of the wealthy and politically influential Scranton family, the founders of Scranton, Pennsylvania.

Early life
Scranton was born in Scranton, Pennsylvania, the son of the late Pennsylvania Governor William Scranton and the late First Lady of Pennsylvania Mary Scranton. He attended Yale University. After college he became the editor of a local newspaper in Mountaintop, Pennsylvania. In 1970, he went to Europe to study Maharishi Mahesh Yogi's Transcendental Meditation, and became a lifelong practitioner of the Transcendental Meditation technique. He then became president and managing editor of the Greenstreet News Company. He entered politics as a member of the Republican State Committee in 1976.

Lieutenant Governor 1979–1987
In 1978, he won the Republican primary for lieutenant governor and later that year became the youngest person ever elected lieutenant governor in Pennsylvania. His dual role as chairman of the Governor's Energy Council and chairman of the Pennsylvania Emergency Management Council put him at the center of the Three Mile Island Nuclear Generating Station crisis in 1979. At one point during the crisis, Scranton visited the plant's auxiliary building, where he donned protective clothing and walked through corridors flooded with radioactive water.

As lieutenant governor, Scranton hired Nat Goldhaber, a member of the Transcendental Meditation movement, as his top aide in Harrisburg. In 1982, he was unanimously elected as Chairman of the National Conference of Lieutenant Governors.

Candidate for governor 1986
During his final term as lieutenant governor, Scranton ran for Governor of Pennsylvania in 1986 against Democratic former Auditor General Bob Casey Sr. The race was virtually tied until five days before election day when Casey's media consultants, led by a young James Carville, launched the now-infamous "guru" ad. This television advertisement portrayed Scranton as having been a regular drug user in the 1960s and mocked Scranton's interest in transcendental meditation and his ties to Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. The image of Scranton as a "long haired, dope-smoking hippie" is seen by political observers as having tipped the scales against Scranton in the socially conservative rural sections of Pennsylvania. Casey went on to win the election by a narrow margin of 79,216 out of 3.3 million votes cast.

Candidate for governor 2006
On October 17, 2005, Scranton formally announced his candidacy for the Republican nomination for Governor of Pennsylvania in 2006. After it became clear that Scranton would not win the Pennsylvania Republican Party endorsement, his campaign called for Pennsylvania change to an "open primary" election. Scranton dismissed his first two prior campaign managers over strategy issues.

In January 2006 Scranton fired his third campaign manager, Jim Seif, after Seif criticized Scranton's African American opponent, Lynn Swann, during a television interview saying, "the rich white guy in this campaign is Lynn Swann." In February 2006, after his request for an open primary was denied, Scranton withdrew from the race.

Private sector
After losing the 1986 election, Scranton exited politics and managed some California companies and start-up firms. He returned to Pennsylvania in 1994 to spend time with his family.

Scranton served on the board of directors for a number of Pennsylvania companies. He was chairman of the Board of the Harleysville Group of Insurance Companies. He also co-founded and co-chaired the Great Valley Technology Alliance.

In 1992, Scranton donated $1,000 to the campaign of his friend John Hagelin, the Pittsburgh-born presidential candidate for the Transcendental Meditation-backed Natural Law Party. Scranton says he has always supported Republicans.

He has maintained a presence in the political arena, creating a new political action committee (GrowPAC), speaking at the annual Pennsylvania Leadership Conference and testifying before the State House of Representatives budget hearing. In May 2007, Scranton joined the board of directors for the Commonwealth Foundation, a Harrisburg public policy research center. Scranton was a potential candidate in the 2010 gubernatorial election, but, in August 2009, effectively ended speculation he would enter the race by endorsing 6th district Congressman Jim Gerlach for governor.

Joe Jurevicius

Joseph Michael Jurevicius (born December 23, 1974) is an American former professional football player who was a wide receiver in the National Football League (NFL). He was selected by the New York Giants in the second round of the 1998 NFL draft. He played college football for the Penn State Nittany Lions.

Jurevicius played for the Giants, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Seattle Seahawks, and Cleveland Browns. He earned a Super Bowl ring with the Buccaneers in Super Bowl XXXVII, and also played in Super Bowl XXXV and Super Bowl XL as a member of the Giants and Seahawks respectively.

Early years
Jurevicius attended St. Justin Martyr School in Eastlake, Ohio, and Lake Catholic High School in Mentor, Ohio, and was a letterman in football as a wide receiver and punter, and in basketball, his #84 jersey is retired and hanging in the Lake Catholic gymnasium.

College career
Jurevicius played college football at Penn State University under head coach Joe Paterno. He finished his college career with 94 receptions for 1,894 yards and 15 touchdowns.

New York Giants
Jurevicius was selected by the New York Giants in the second round (55th overall) in the 1998 NFL draft. He played four seasons with the New York Giants through the 2002 season.

In his NFL debut in Week 1 of the 1998 season, Jurevicius had a 22-yard reception against Washington. As a rookie, he appeared in 14 games and had nine receptions for 146 yards.

In Week 7 of the 1999 season, Jurevicius had his first NFL touchdown on a 53-yard reception from Kent Graham against the New Orleans Saints. In the 1999 season, he had 18 receptions for 318 yards and a touchdown in 16 games and one start.

In the 2000 season, Jurevicius had 24 receptions for 272 yards and a touchdown in 14 games and three starts. He had a receiving touchdown in New York's 41–0 victory over the Vikings in the NFC Championship. He played in the Giants' 34–7 loss to the Baltimore Ravens in Super Bowl XXXV, but did not record any receptions.

In Week 8 of the 2001 season, Jurevicius had two receiving touchdowns in a win over the Dallas Cowboys. In the 2001 season, he had 51 receptions for 706 yards and three touchdowns in 14 games and nine starts.

During his time in New York, he played in 58 games, scoring five touchdowns and totaling 1,442 receiving yards.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers
In 2002, Jurevicius signed a four-year contract with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers as an unrestricted free agent. In Week 14, against the Atlanta Falcons, he had eight receptions for 100 yards and two touchdowns in the 34–10 victory. He had 37 receptions for 423 yard and four touchdowns in 15 games and three starts in the 2002 season. In the 2002 NFC Championship game against the Philadelphia Eagles, he took a crossing pattern 71 yards down to the Eagles' five-yard line. In Super Bowl XXXVII, Jurevicius was the game's leading receiver with four catches for 78 yards as Tampa Bay won by a score of 48–21 over the Oakland Raiders.

In the 2003 season, he had 12 receptions for 118 yards and two touchdowns. He played in five games that year due to ACL and MCL injuries.

In Week 11 of the 2004 season, against the 49ers, Jurevicius had two receiving touchdowns in the 35–3 victory. In the 2004 season, he had 27 receptions for 333 yards and two touchdowns in ten games and three starts.

Jurevicius left Tampa Bay following the 2004 season. He played in 30 games for the team, recording 874 yards receiving and eight touchdowns.

Seattle Seahawks
In 2005, Jurevicius signed with the Seattle Seahawks. He finished the regular season with a career-high 10 touchdowns with 694 receiving yards, leading the team in touchdowns and finishing second in yards. He had a career-high 137 yards against the St. Louis Rams in Week 5. He matched his career high in Week 12 against the Giants and added two touchdowns. He led the Seahawks in receiving with five catches for 93 yards in their 21–10 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers in Super Bowl XL.

Cleveland Browns
On March 11, 2006, Jurevicius signed a four-year contract with his hometown team, the Cleveland Browns. He became an immediate impact player as a dependable, sure-handed receiver—especially on 3rd-and-long situations. He finished the 2006 season with 40 receptions for 495 yards and three touchdowns in 13 games and eight starts. In Week 2 of the 2007 season, he had two receiving touchdowns in the 51–45 victory over the Bengals. He finished the 2007 season with 50 receptions for 614 yards and three touchdowns. He had the third most 3rd-down receptions (29) in the league.

In 2008, Jurevicius spent the preseason recovering from surgery on his right knee. Shortly after the initial surgery, he developed a staph infection and underwent five additional surgeries to eliminate the infection. He began the season on the Active/PUP list, and on August 25, he was transferred to the Reserve/PUP list, forcing him to miss the first six weeks of the regular season. Slow recovery prevented his availability before Week 10, which by NFL rules, made him ineligible to return for the remainder of the 2008 season. He was awarded the team's Ed Block Courage Award, given to the player who best persevered through injury.

Jurevicius underwent a seventh surgery to clear out scar tissue in late 2008, vowing to return for the 2009 season. However, the Browns released him on March 11, 2009.

On June 26, 2009, Jurevicius filed a lawsuit in Cuyahoga County Court of Common Pleas naming the Browns, the Cleveland Clinic, and Browns team physicians, Dr. Anthony Miniaci and Dr. Richard Figler, as defendants. The suit alleged Jurevicius contracted staph in his right knee due to the Browns' failure to sterilize their Berea, Ohio training facility properly and the failure of doctors at the Cleveland Clinic to take proper precautions against infection. Five other Browns players and two staff members had contracted staph since 2003. The Browns and Cleveland Clinic confidentially settled with Jurevicius in 2010.

Retirement
The damage done to his knee effectively forced him into retirement. He now appears on the Tailgate Show on Cleveland Browns pre-game television. Jurevicius also appeared on two episodes of North American Hunter in 2013 hunting moose and bear in Newfoundland and British Columbia.

In 2014, he opted to receive stem cell therapy on his knees.

Personal life
Jurevicius currently lives in Nebraska. He is of Lithuanian descent, and has a tattoo of Vytis, the national symbol of Lithuania on his right biceps. He earned a degree in Human Development and Family Studies from Pennsylvania State University in 1997. He appeared on the cover of Sports Illustrated twice: August 25, 1997, and February 3, 2003.

Jurevicius is an avid hunter. In 2007, he co-founded Dismal River Outfitters, a hunting ranch and resort in Mullen, Nebraska, with his former Buccaneer and Seahawk teammate, John Howell. His appearance on 'North American Hunter' chasing moose and spot-and-stalk bear is a further testament to his love of hunting and the outdoors.

In June 2009, Jurevicius took part in the 2009 NFL/NFLPA "Broadcast Boot Camp," a program designed by the NFL Broadcasting Department and their broadcast partners to prepare players for possible post-playing careers in broadcasting.

In September 2018, Jurevicius was robbed at gunpoint in his house in Gates Mills, Ohio. The robber Robert Howse, who was 24 years old at the time, was later found guilty of charges relating to the robbery and received a 43-year prison sentence. The defendant had a notable outburst at his sentencing.

Jurevicius owns a commercial cleaning and laundry businesses named The Clean Group, which is headquartered outside of Cleveland.

In March 2024, The Clean Group suffered a major fire.

Misty Watlered
Non-notable, no google hits, hoax. Here was my post on the Misty Watlered talk page:

This, and along with Tribal (album), "Ocean Limit", "Anime Queen", "Is Your Drawing Rad" and "Evolution" seem to be made up. Nothing can be found on any search engine for these, except links to Wikipedia itself. There's not even a link from Misty (Pokémon) to here. Also looking at the page histories and user contributions, it seems like the IPs, , , and  are contributing to this (these articles are what the IPs have edited mainly). They have also seemed to have edited Spice Girls and Avril Lavigne articles, and maybe some others, so can other users check those pages too for anything to be reverted.--secfan 08:29, Apr 22, 2005 (UTC)

 * Delete. IMDB turns up nothing. There's a possibility that "Watlered" is a typo for something else, but searches on "Misty" + the album names also don't seem to turn up anything.  If not a hoax, at the very least not notable. -- Curps 18:30, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, as above. Unless someone made HUGE typos in both the name (Mindy?) and the albums ("Trivial (album)?") then it's a crappy hoax. Actually, if this is a hoax as it seems to be, does it qualify for a speedy? Master Thief Garrett 22:49, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. No such thing. There just isn't. I have checked the Avril Lavigne and Spice Girls articles, and this person seems to have just been making slight grammatical corrections to barely noticable errors (I am a constant Avril Lavigne checker). Otherwise, this singer does not exist. This is also because Misty's voice-actor is Rachael Lillis, not "Misty Watlered", unless like stated above, a huge typo was made (which honestly wasn't).
 * Delete. Brianjd | Why restrict HTML? | 07:08, 2005 Apr 23 (UTC)
 * Delete. This "artist" does not exist.

Richard and the Young Lions

Richard and the Young Lions were an American garage rock band from Newark, New Jersey. They produced a moderately successful single with their song "Open Up Your Door".

History
The Young Lions originally performed under the name The Emeralds. When Richard Tepp saw the group perform, he was so impressed with the act, he joined the band, which resulted in changing their moniker to the Original Kounts. In addition to having a repertoire conceived of British Invasion cover versions, the band members became known as one of the more rebellious acts as a result of the band members growing their hair long. After being discovered by Larry Brown, (a.k.a. L. Russell Brown), and Ray Bloodworth during a chance encounter in a Newark pizzeria and joining Bob Crewe Productions, the name was changed to Richard and the Young Lions. The core of the group consisted of Tepp (lead vocals and tambourine), Bob Freedman (rhythm guitar and vocals), Marc Lees (lead guitar and vocals), Norm Cohen (drums), Ricky Rackin (guitar and bass guitar), and Jerry Raff (piano).

The Young Lions managed to produce one minor hit with their song "Open Up Your Door". The composition was the first ever recorded using an African hair drum. It reached number one in Cleveland, Ohio; Detroit, Michigan; Elyria, Ohio; and Salt Lake City, Utah; number two in Seattle, Washington and Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada; number three in Tucson, Arizona; and the Top 10 in many other cities in the US and Canada. Nationally, it peaked at number 99 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart on September 24, 1966, and number 91 on the Record World Top 100 Pops chart on October 8, 1966. The corresponding Cash Box listing was at number 70 on October 22, 1966. The band made several television appearances including The Hy Lit Show and The Jerry Blavat Show out of Philadelphia, PA. They also appeared in the Detroit market on Robin Seymour's Swingin' Time show, out of Windsor, Ontario. A video of that appearance on Swingin' Time has survived to this day and can be found on line. And the band also made two appearances on the Upbeat TV show out of Cleveland, OH, hosted by Don Webster.

Their follow-up release, "Nasty", was chosen and released in late December 1966 and became a regional hit, but did not match the sales of their debut single. The Young Lions' final single, "You Can Make It" was released in February 1967 and received extensive radio play. However, the record company refused to distribute the single to the public, so "You Can Make It" failed to chart. The band sought to compose their own tracks, however they were no longer backed financially which led to their disbandment.

Original lead singer Richard Tepp died of leukemia on June 17, 2004.

Film
A documentary on the band was produced in 2004, entitled Out of Our Dens: The Richard and the Young Lions Story by James Hannon and Leon Leybs, and narrated by preeminent radio personality Pat St. John. It featured the group's history from their early days to their reunion shows in the early 2000s.

Albums

 * Richard and the Young Lions – Volume 1 (2018) – 2 original songs ("Nasty," "You Can Make It") and 9 remakes.
 * Richard and the Young Lions – Volume 2 (2019) – 2 original songs ("Once Upon Your Smile," "Open Up Your Door") and 8 remakes.

Singles

 * "Open Up Your Door" b/w "Once Upon Your Smile": Philips 40381 (number 99 on the Billboard Hot 100) (1966) (both US and Canadian pressings)
 * "Nasty" b/w "Lost and Found": Philips 40414 (1966) (both US and Canadian pressings)
 * "You Can Make It" b/w "To Have and to Hold": Philips 40438 (1967) (both US and Canadian pressings)

Compilation appearances

 * "You Can Make It", their swan song, was compiled on Volume 12 of the Pebbles series in 1983.
 * "Open Up Your Door" was featured on the 1998 four CD box set, Nuggets: Original Artyfacts from the First Psychedelic Era, 1965–1968.

Seneca Wallace

Seneca Sinclair Wallace (born August 6, 1980) is an American former professional football player who was a quarterback in the National Football League (NFL). He played college football for Iowa State Cyclones and was selected by the Seattle Seahawks in the fourth round of the 2003 NFL Draft. Wallace was also a member of the Cleveland Browns, New Orleans Saints, San Francisco 49ers and Green Bay Packers. He became a coach after his playing career.

Early life
Wallace attended Cordova High School in Rancho Cordova, California, and was a letterman in football and basketball. In basketball, he won All-Sierra Conference honors and All-Sacramento honorable mention honors.

College career
Wallace attended Sacramento City College in order to stay close to home at his mother's request. After initially receiving only three offers, two at wide receiver, Wallace transferred to Iowa State University for his junior and senior year.

Wallace received widespread notice in 2002 while with the Iowa State Cyclones in a play famously known as "The Run," in which he traversed back to the 32 yard line before running it in for a 12-yard touchdown versus Texas Tech. It was later estimated that he ran 135 yards on the 12 yard touchdown rush. While quarterbacking the Iowa State Cyclones in 2001 and 2002, he threw 26 touchdowns and 27 interceptions.

Seattle Seahawks
He was selected in the fourth round of the 2003 NFL Draft out of Iowa State University. It is widely thought his draft value dropped because of his insistence that he play quarterback for the team, rather than wide receiver. Intrigued by his athleticism, the Seattle Seahawks gave him that chance. Wallace made his mark in the 2005 NFL Playoffs when he caught an acrobatic 28-yard pass from Matt Hasselbeck in the NFC Championship game against former Seahawks cornerback Ken Lucas of the Carolina Panthers.

In 2006, Wallace started in four games as quarterback after an injury to Hasselbeck's right knee. Under his leadership, the team won two games and lost two. His passer rating was 76.2 for the 2006 season, passing just under 1,000 yards, throwing 8 touchdowns and 7 interceptions.

In 2007, Mike Holmgren began using Wallace as a wide receiver in limited formations. By Week 7, Wallace had caught two passes, run two end arounds, and thrown an incomplete pass on an end around option pass.

In 2008, Wallace started two pre-season games at quarterback and had good statistics against the Minnesota Vikings and Oakland Raiders. After injuries to wide receivers that hurt the Seattle Seahawks, Wallace was moved to that position but strained a calf in his first game.

After the injury of Hasselbeck, he returned as a starter in week seven of the season at Tampa Bay, where the team lost 20–10. The next week, he led his team to a 34–13 win over San Francisco. In week 9, Wallace threw for the longest touchdown pass in Seattle Seahawks franchise history with a 90-yard completion to Koren Robinson in the Seahawks' first play from scrimmage. However, the Seahawks lost to the Philadelphia Eagles, 26–7. Wallace played again in the 21–19 road loss to the Miami Dolphins in week ten. Hasselbeck was cleared by team doctors to play and was the starter again for week 11. Because of another injury to Hasselbeck, Wallace started in week 14 against the New England Patriots, where he threw 20 completions in 28 attempts for 212 yards and three touchdowns. His passer rating for the game was 128.9. He also ran for 47 yards on three carries. However, a lost fumble by Wallace late in the fourth quarter led to a 24–21 Seahawks loss. The following week, he captured his second win as a starter as the Seahawks beat the St. Louis Rams 23–20 at the Edward Jones Dome. Hasselbeck returned from injury, but Wallace remained the starter for the rest of the season. Wallace had another good performance in a victory against the New York Jets in week 16, but lost to the eventual NFC champion Arizona Cardinals in week 17.

In his limited action, Wallace ended the 2008 NFL season as the league leader in Passing Touchdown to Interception Ratio, with 3.67.

Cleveland Browns
On March 8, 2010, Wallace was traded to the Cleveland Browns for a seventh round pick in the 2011 NFL Draft. With this trade, Wallace was reunited with his former Seattle coach and then-Browns president Mike Holmgren. He made his regular-season debut September 12, 2010, after starting quarterback Jake Delhomme injured his ankle during a week 1 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He would go on to start the next four games before suffering a high ankle sprain during week 5 versus the Atlanta Falcons. On March 3, 2011, Wallace signed a three-year deal with the Browns. Wallace was released by the Cleveland Browns after the conclusion of the 2012 preseason.

New Orleans Saints
On April 15, 2013, the New Orleans Saints signed Wallace to a one-year deal. On August 19, 2013, he was released by the Saints.

San Francisco 49ers
On August 22, 2013, he signed a one-year deal with the San Francisco 49ers. A week later on August 29, 2013, he asked for his release. He later said that (contrary to some news reports) he was not retiring, but had decided to leave the 49ers because he felt they were not giving him a chance to make the team, and had signed him only to pressure their principal backup quarterback, Colt McCoy, to accept a pay cut.

Green Bay Packers
On September 2, 2013, Wallace signed with the Green Bay Packers. He first played for the Packers on November 4, 2013, after an injury to the left shoulder of Aaron Rodgers in the first quarter of the Monday night game against the Chicago Bears. His first start for the Packers was on Sunday, November 10, 2013, against the Philadelphia Eagles. During the game's opening drive, Wallace suffered a season-ending groin injury and had to leave the game. He was replaced by quarterback Scott Tolzien, who made his first regular-season NFL appearance.

Wallace was the first African-American to start a game as quarterback for the Packers.

Episcopal School of Dallas
From 2017 to 2021 Seneca coached at the Episcopal School of Dallas as an assistant coach.

Dallas Cowboys
Wallace joined the Dallas Cowboys staff in 2020 as a camp assistant working with the quarterbacks.

John Paul II High School
In 2022, Wallace was an assistant coach for John Paul II High School.

Post-career
In the summer of 2018, Wallace was the quarterback for Godspeed, a flag football team made of former professional American football players that participated in the American Flag Football League (AFFL). The team were crowned the champions of participating pro teams but lost in the final match to the amateur champion team.

Luigi Poletti (mathematician)

Luigi Poletti (31 December 1864 – 10 March 1967) was an Italian mathematician and poet. He was born in Pontremoli, where he also died, age 102.

He attended the episcopal seminary in Potremoli, then the high school of Parma, graduated in Turin and started to study mathematics there. He did not finish and took a job in a bank. 1911 he accidentally found the book of prime number tables written by Lehmer, a mathematician from the United States in the house of professor Gino Loria, a friend of his family, when he visited Genoa. Since then he spent many years to extend the first table in order to simplify "Eratosthenes Crivello" (sieve of Eratosthenes), a method from ancient Greece to find prime numbers. He gave his method a new name: "Neocribrum" (Novum Eratosthenes Cribrum) and he got recognition from the scientific community. Apart from that, he was, together with André Gerardin, member of a study commission of the Association française pour l'avancement des sciences (1946). With the assistance of N. G. W. H. Beeger he had the possibility to extend the table of Lehmer beyond the number 10 006 721. 1955 he was awarded a gold medal and the order of the Republic of Italy by Italian president Giovanni Gronchi.

In his long life (102 years) he was a member of the city council in the rank of Commissario Prefettizio. He was a poet in his native dialect Pontremolese (poems and texts for popular music). He wrote for example Al Campanon d‘ Pontrémal, La Zumniana (for which he also composed the music) or Al cant dal Cont Ugolìn. He translated XXXIII of "Dantes Inferno". As an amateur he wrote poems in Latin language.

List of seas on Earth

This is a list of seas of the World Ocean, including marginal seas, areas of water, various gulfs, bights, bays, and straits. In many cases it is a matter of tradition for a body of water to be named a sea or a bay, etc., therefore all these types are listed here.

Terminology

 * Ocean – the four to seven largest named bodies of water in the World Ocean, all of which have "Ocean" in the name. See Borders of the oceans for details.
 * Sea has several definitions:
 * A division of an ocean, delineated by landforms, currents (e.g., Sargasso Sea), or specific latitude or longitude boundaries.  This includes but is not limited to marginal seas, and this is the definition used for inclusion in this list.
 * A marginal sea is a division of an ocean, partially enclosed by islands, archipelagos, or peninsulas, adjacent to or widely open to the open ocean at the surface, and/or bounded by submarine ridges on the sea floor.
 * The World Ocean. For example, the Law of the Sea states that all of the World Ocean is "sea",  and this is also common usage for "the sea".
 * Any large body of water with "Sea" in the name, including lakes.
 * River – a narrow strip of water that flows over land from a higher elevation to a lower one
 * Tributary – a small river that flows into a larger one
 * Estuary – the piece of a river that flows into the sea or ocean
 * Strait – a narrow area of water connecting two wider areas of water, also sometimes known as a passage
 * Channel – usually wider than a strait
 * Passage – connects waters between islands, also sometimes known as a strait
 * Canal – a human-made channel
 * Fjard – a large open water between groups of islands

There are several terms used for bulges of ocean that result from indentations of land, which overlap in definition, and which are not consistently differentiated:

 * Bay – generic term; though most features with "Bay" in the name are small, some are very large
 * Gulf – a very large bay, often a top-level division of an ocean or sea
 * Fjord – a long bay with steep sides, typically formed by a glacier
 * Bight – a bay that is typically shallower than a sound
 * Sound – a large, wide bay which is typically deeper than a bight, or a strait
 * Cove – a small, typically sheltered bay with a relatively narrow entrance
 * Inlet – a narrow and long bay similar to a land peninsula, but adjoining the sea
 * Polynya – least used of these terms, a patch of water surrounded by ice

Many features could be considered to be more than one of these, and all of these terms are used in place names inconsistently; especially bays, gulfs, and bights, which can be very large or very small. This list includes large areas of water no matter the term used in the name.

Doreen Chanter

Doreen Chanter is a British singer best known as a member of the Chanter Sisters, and for her work as a backing vocalist and session vocalist, primarily during the 1970s and 1980s.

Chanter Sisters
Chanter started as a member of a group called the Chanters in 1967 with her sister Irene Chanter and her five brothers, releasing four singles which failed to chart. In 1968, the Chanter sisters became a duo initially known as Birds of a Feather.

The duo released four singles between 1967 and 1972 but none of them achieved chart success. Their first album was Birds of a Feather, released in 1970 and featuring Elton John on piano. The Chanter sisters had appeared as backing singers for John in a Radio 1 session.

Long John Baldry asked the sisters to join his live band in 1973. They also featured on June 1, 1974, a live album featuring Nico, Brian Eno, Kevin Ayers and John Cale, and appeared on the Chris Farlowe album BBC Radio 1 Live in Concert. Both sisters are credited on the 1974 John Cale album Fear and, the same year, Ron Wood's album I've Got My Own Album to Do, and Rod Stewart's album Smiler. Other credits include Manfred Mann's Earth Band's Solar Fire (1973), Nightingales and Bombers (1975), The Roaring Silence (1976) and Watch (1978), plus John Entwistle's Mad Dog (1975), Andy Fairweather Low's La Booga Rooga (1975), Chris Rea's Whatever Happened to Benny Santini? (1978) and Justin Hayward's Night Flight (1980). In 1976, Polydor released their second album First Flight, although it failed to make any lasting impression. They sang live with John Miles and appeared on a live album. The sisters released two albums in 1978 through Safari Records, both of which failed to chart.

In 1971, both sisters were cast as schoolgirls in the Hammer film Twins of Evil.

Solo singer
On Phil Manzanera's first solo album Diamond Head (1975), John Wetton and Doreen sang duo on the track "Same Time Next Week". She subsequently joined Jacqui Sullivan as one of The Sirens, backing vocalists for Roxy Music's 1975–76 tour dates. (They can be heard on the band's 1976 live album Viva!) In 1976 her name was credited on Bryan Ferry's album Let's Stick Together, and the following year she appeared as a backing vocalist on another Ferry album, In Your Mind.

In 1981, Chanter was part of a chorus that sang at The Secret Policeman's Ball, with other chorus members including Phil Collins, Donovan, Sheena Easton, Bob Geldof, Midge Ure and Tom Robinson. She also wrote two singles for Kiki Dee, released in 1981, and a song sung by Dee for the British television series Roll Over Beethoven in 1985. She made a cameo in the film Pink Floyd The Wall in 1982 as a vocalist in a choir and, with Irene, provided backing vocals on the Pink Floyd song, "Not Now John", from the band's 1983 album, The Final Cut. Also in 1983, both Doreen and Irene appeared as backing singers on The Undertones track "The Love Parade" on their The Sin of Pride album. The same year, Chanter provided vocals for the song "Say You're Sorry" from Ministry's With Sympathy. Also in 1983, she guested on backing vocals on Keith Emerson's Murder Rock album on one song, "Not So Innocent", as well as lead vocalist on three songs. She also wrote the lyrics for them.

Chanter was part of the touring bands for both Roger Waters and Van Morrison in 1984. She sang on Waters' album The Pros and Cons of Hitchhiking, released in that year, and provided backing vocals together with Katie Kissoon during the tour promoting the record in 1984–85. The duo returned again for the Radio K.A.O.S tour in 1987. Chanter performed on Waters' next releases – first, she sang on three songs from Radio K.A.O.S. in 1987 and then on five songs on the Amused to Death album in 1992.

She also toured as part of Meat Loaf's backing band Neverland Express in 1984–85, including appearing on Bad Attitude - Live! (1985), and as part of Joe Cocker's touring band in 1989. Chanter featured on Cocker's live album Joe Cocker Live, released in 1990.

During the 1990s, Chanter appeared on several albums with Chris Farlowe.

interpretational notes on mathematics articles
Hi Oleg, I've been reading around the maths area a lot more lately, and it doesn't seem to have many notes to help with interpretation. The articles seem great for people who need a refresher, but not so great for people needing to solidify their understanding (maybe this parallels a possible general tendency for mathematical education to focus on notation and have a total lack of essay-writing etc.). Is this is a deliberate policy or could I start adding interpretational notes without causing a ruckus? (on principle that is, maybe my style or content will cause a ruckus, but that's another matter!) Conskeptical 12:36, 27 Apr 2005 (UTC)

 * I agree with you that some articles could need to be more elementary or explained in more detail. On the other hand, this is an encyclopedia, and not a collection of lessons; one also cannot in great depth at every step. So, there is some balance to strike.

 * You are certainly welcome to modify articles to make them easier to understand of course. To not cause much ruckus, as you say, probably it is good to do that carefully, on an article by article basis, maybe first asking on the talk page and such.

 * So, back to your original question. I don't think there is a delibirate policy to write articles which are hard to understand by non-specialists. It is just, for a given article, the contributors to it probably thought that's the best way they can write it. That's why your contributions are very welcome, again, as long as there is some consultation on the talk page.

 * If you would like a community-wide discussion of this, you could also post your thoughts at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Mathematics. And let me know if I was not specific enough about some things. Cheers, Oleg Alexandrov 15:16, 27 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Talk:Vaneless ion wind generator

Does it exist ?
Is there a citation for one of these things actually being built? And how do you aim it into the wind? How do you build it at megawatt scale? Any kind of schematic picture would be *great*. --Wtshymanski 17:02, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)

 * Didn't know there was an article for this. I contributed a picture from the patent.
 * You don't aim it at the wind. It's stationary and the wind blows through it.  Meant for areas where the windflow is generally in the same direction, like mountaintops.
 * For megawatt scale you just build a long one. :-)  He claims "For example, such a screen 100 meters high and 1,000 meters long; or a screen area of 105 m²/km will generate an electric power output of 45 megawatts/km at about 100,000 volts DC."  Of course, it's just a patent, so it doesn't necessarily even work.
 * I removed "it won't work in the rain" as I don't think that's true.
 * I left in "and it has to be well-crafted to reduce corona discharge losses", but I don't know if that's true, either. Have to think about that one... - Omegatron 18:20, August 10, 2005 (UTC)

 * Of course it has to reduce corona discharge losses; it has a high voltage on it, and coronas will form and leak current if not well-designed. — Omegatron 18:56, 31 December 2005 (UTC)

Original arrangement for the illustration did not work. Hope the change is OK with you--Janosabel 14:30, 12 May 2007 (UTC)

Another idea
is a related idea, which seems to use contact electrification to charge a metal airfoil, which is continually drained to create a current. — Omegatron 03:09, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

Metapsychiatry

Metapsychiatry is a spiritual form of psychotherapy developed by Hungarian psychiatrist Thomas Hora (1914–1995) in the second half of the 20th century. Hora described it as "a scientific method of healing and education based on metaphysical concepts of man and the universe". Hora created metapsychiatry because he felt existing psychoanalysis failed to account for human spirituality, and felt that current psychiatric healing was often temporary. It is characterized by a hermeneutic approach.

Characteristics
Metapsychiatry borrows from Judeo-Christian, Zen Buddhist and Taoist religious traditions, along with theistic existentialist philosophy and phenomenology; similarities to Morita therapy have been noted. It makes a distinction between religious practice and spiritual interest. God is perceived as "limitless, infinite and non-material". Its style originates with the assertion that "the meaning and purpose of life are to come to know reality", which is defined as "God", "Love-Intelligence" or "Infinite Mind".

The study of metapsychiatry includes the implementation of "the two intelligent questions", which seek to distinguish between experiential and spiritual existence. The first question is "What is the meaning of what seems to be?" The second question asks, "What is what really is?" The aim is a reorientation from a preoccupation with material appearances toward the apprehension of spiritual reality. Metapsychiatry maintains that the problems of humankind are based on ignorance, and may be overcome through "Knowledge of the truth of what really is." Problems are viewed as psychological; answers are spiritual. Metapsychiatry holds that suffering is the product of self-confirmatory thought, the insistence on affirming one's existence, and that relief from suffering is realized through enlightened transcendence of the material world.

The qualities of peace, assurance, gratitude and love (PAGL) are cited as indicating a state of spiritual consciousness.

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Break the ice

 This page is an archive of the discussion about the proposed deletion of the article below. This page is no longer live. Further comments should be made on the article's talk page rather than here so that this page is preserved as an historic record. The result of the debate was redirect to icebreaker (facilitation). Mindspillage (spill yours?) 05:13, 6 May 2005 (UTC)

Break the ice
Delete, dicdef, trivial Delete --WalkinDownThirtyThree 18:12, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge/redirect with breaking the Ice. Kappa 22:47, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Actually, Kappa, I'd say breaking the Ice ought to be deleted too. It's also a dicdef. And no-one comes on an encyclopedia looking for those. Master Thief Garrett 22:53, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * True story - when I was a peer advisor in my university, we were taught a variety of "ice-breakers" - tried and true methods for getting groups of strangers warmed up to one another. Apparently these are a big hit on the corporate scene. There ought to be an article on that topic, and this ought to redirect to it. -- 8^D gab 01:46, 2005 Apr 23 (UTC)
 * Isn't there a Parker Bros. game called "Break the Ice"? Redirect to that and make an article on the game.  RickK 21:48, Apr 23, 2005 (UTC)
 * Never heard of the game, but icebreaker activitities are common at, say, scouting camps. See Icebreaker (disambiguation). I'd like this and Breaking the Ice merged with some samples of common icebreaker games. Radiant_* 10:33, Apr 25, 2005 (UTC)
 * There was a Milton Bradley game called Don't Break the Ice. The facilitation activities (corporate, scouting, etc) are most commonly known as "icebreakers" - an article which we need but do not yet have.  Unless someone has a better suggestion, I will create it at icebreaker (facilitation).  Redirect this dicdef there.  Breaking the Ice however has a history as a stub article about a specific peace project by that name and should probably stay separate for now.  Rossami (talk) 00:17, 27 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * This page is now preserved as an archive of the debate and, like some other VfD subpages, is no longer 'live'. Subsequent comments on the issue, the deletion, or the decision-making process should be placed on the relevant 'live' pages. Please do not edit this page.

Talk:All rights reversed

Sorting
User:Sn0wflake, why do you think this is a "linguistics" stub rather than a "discordian" one? I believe it is primarily used within the Discordian community. If not that, I'd expect it to be legal if anything - it doesn't really have anything to do with linguistics. DenisMoskowitz 17:06, 2005 Apr 22 (UTC)

If this helps show real world usage, the following statement is on FreeSharing.org:

All information on this site is CopyLeft (K) 2005, All Rights Reversed and considered to be eternally in the public domain for non-profit usage. You may freely use, duplicate or modify any information on this site provided it remains in the public domain.

Feel free to add it to the article if you wish, I'm not very Wiki literate myself.

eb - 2/15/06 - a bit after 5pm.

I think Discordians tend to spell it All Rites Reversed. At least that's how my Principia has it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.215.250.125 (talk) 07:15, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Page 75 of the 1970 4th edition uses "all rights reversed". the rites variant appears at the top of the 1979 interview with norton cabal afterword to the loompanics edition. --PopeFauveXXIII (talk) 04:54, 15 November 2008 (UTC)

Belle & Sebastian also used the "All Rights Reserved, All Wrongs Reversed" on their 1996 debut, Tigermilk. Don't really know if this deserves to be added or not.

Merge with CopyLeft
Merge - Agree with proposer (though they should have put their reasons here). I agree that this is a far better merge than the previous suggestion to merge with public domain. Use of "All Ri(ght|te)s Reversed" and "(K)" do not appear to be globally consistent enough as discordianist memes, and are used by many others. There is no clear definition of these terms, even on the discordianist site. It does seem to fall entirely within the umbrella of Copyleft. If the split is voted down, then those that voted against it might want to recycle some of the discussion under public domain and add it to the body: I am afraid I don't care enough about this topic to bother.--DewiMorgan 04:26, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

I have to say Don't Merge. The intent of All Rites Reversed is closer to public domain: it is a disavowment of copyright. The distinction is that to describe something as "public domain" is to assert that nobody has proprietary control, whereas to describe something as "All Rites Reversed" just means that the immediate author does not claim proprietary control. Or some such. Even if "All Rites Reversed" is taken in the same sense as Copyleft (i.e. a statement of copyright with an implicit licensing agreement), then "All Rites Reversed" is functionally the same as public domain. And, now that I've looked at it, good suggestion about the stuff under Talk:Public domain. Thank you. That'll be useful if somebody ever gets around to rewriting this. — Bigwyrm watch mewake me 06:23, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

Don't Merge, for the same reasons as above, and because it would be an extraneous footnote, lost in the copyleft article. It has a culture of its own that predates copyleft, anybody who's interested in it is interested in precisely the info being collected here. --PopeFauveXXIII (talk) 05:07, 15 November 2008 (UTC)
