Abu Said Gorgani

Abu Sa'id al-Dharir al-Jurjani (ابو سعيد الضرير الجرجاني), also Gurgani, was a 9th-century Persian mathematician and astronomer from Gurgan, Iran. He wrote a treatise on geometrical problems and another on the drawing of the meridian. George Sarton considers him a pupil of Ibn al-A'rabi, but Carl Brockelmann rejects this opinion.

Works
Two of his works are extant:
 * Masa'il Hindisia (a manuscript is available in Cairo)
 * Istikhraj khat nisf al-nahar min kitab analima wa al-borhan alayh (available in Cairo, translated by Carl Schoy)

Talk:Greenwich Village

one "citation needed" is absurd
The "citation needed" by the "Friends" building is absurd. I know Wikipedia likes citations on text, but the photo shows that this IS the building from the show and everybody can also see it live in the Village... so let's not be so absurd with citations. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.254.235.169 (talk) 00:46, 16 December 2009 (UTC)

Random User with a question: how can their be a West Village when your Greenich Village boundaries go all the way to the Hudson? I don't know if this is the right place to put this.

 * This is how: Greenwich Village contains the West Village. The West Village is sometimes considered a subsection of Greenwich Village, and other times used as a synonym for all of Greenwich Village to distinguish it from the East Village, which is on the Lower East Side.

maps of each area in relation to the rest of the city would be nice. — Omegatron 22:30, 26 October 2005 (UTC)

According to a documentary I saw on the Stonewall Uprising, they said the West Village was distinguished solely to separate the area where gay people lived. Now, that is NOT my opinion, I think that is probably wrong, and when I heard it spoken I kind of winced at the mention. I'm pretty sure it was called the West Village in order to separate the higher-end residential area from the business area, more of a real estate thing, to be sure. Socioeconomically it went like this: East Village is lower middle class, Greenwich Village middle class, more where actors, musicians, artists, etc., lived and the business area (most likely, that is why it is considered the hub) and the West Village, which at a time was more family oriented and was the upper middle class area.

I’m interested in information about the Greenwich Village bohemian scene in the 1950’s and 1960’s. I feel this body of information is encyclopedically relevant. However, it seems that the page is focused primarily on Greenwich Village as a physical location. Is it possible to add more information about topics like Yoko Ono, Andy Warhol and pop art? Note: Andy Warhol has very little to do with Greenwich Village as a physical location but is perhaps relevant to the Greenwich Village as a cultural phenomenon.

What are people’s thoughts about: Pstaight (talk) 03:53, 13 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Adding more about Greenwich Village cultural phenomenon to the current page
 * Adding more links to pages about the art scene in the 1950’s and 1960’s on the current page
 * Making a separate page specifically about the art that has come from Greenwich Village
 * Not worrying about this information and keeping everything pretty much as it is

Village vs. West Village
I was born and raised in "the village" (right smack in the middle, neither East nor West), and am a 4th generation native-born Manhattanite. I have never once heard "West Village" used to mean "all of the village". There is no way anyone familiar with the neighborhood would cite, say, Washington Square Park as being in the West Village. This portion of the entry is incorrect

Exactly. There is an East Village (east of Broadway), a West Village (west of 6th Avenue) and the "Village," which is everything in between. Fifth Avenue is the "Village," some people call that area "Greenwich Village," intimatingthat it is Greenwich Village "proper." Even though the boundaries are very small, they are 3 completely different worlds. In the distant past, the socioeconomic partition was poor in the East, middle/working class in the Village, and upper middle class in the West. The East and West were, long ago in the past, primarily residential, and Greenwich Village was the center, where most of the shopping and other establishments were. Pookerella (talk) 21:42, 21 May 2017 (UTC)

Request clarification of Villages
OK, I'm slightly confused by the differences between "(The) Village", "East Village", "West Village", and "Greenwich Village". Could someone clarify this? Currently there's a contradiction of definitions. In the Japanese Wikipedia article (which I want to update), it says "the Village = West + Greenwich + East Villages", while the English Wikipedia article says "the Village = Greenwich Village", while "West Village" is left undefined.—Tokek 08:43, 10 February 2006 (UTC)
 * That's because Manhattanites love to argue over silly things. :) Everyone agrees that "the Village" and "Greenwich Village" are synonyms.  Everyone also agrees that the upper and lower bounds are Houston St and 14th St.  The problem is that, historically, Greenwich Village only went as far east as Broadway (which is where 4th Ave would be in this part of town).  When Greenwich was this small, anything west of maybe 7th Ave wasn't really "west".  The area to the East was Bowery and Alphabet City (plus some gated communities in the far northeast that no one thinks of as in the Village).  Some people go so far as to say that both of these neighborhoods were sub-neighborhoods of the Lower East Side.  In the 80's, real estate developers started referring to Bowery & Alphabet City as "East Village".  Here's where it gets nasty: the city government now considers EVERYTHING between Houston & 14th to be Greenwich Village, with the area that the irate person in the post above thought of as central Greenwich (AKA Washington Square) now being considered in the West part of Greenwich Village.  --M @ r ē ino 14:37, 10 February 2006 (UTC)

 * I've only lived here a year, but here's how I view the whole situation. Greenwich Village & the West Village = The Village, while the East Village would never be referred to as simply "the Village".  Again, I haven't lived here for that long, so what do I know? Alexandrewb 18:21, 28 April 2006 (UTC)

East vs West vs "The" Village
I think maybe I'm the person being referred to as "irate" (which I'm not, so forgive me if my tone suggested otherwise) so maybe I can clarify or confuse things further.

As I said, I was born and raised there, so this is the source of my authority, FWIW. In my experience, most long-term residents and natives understand "the village" to mean the superset, i.e. everything between Houston and 14th Street. Some people, though, view the "East Village" as being a distinct neighborhood, with some dispute about its western boundary. Some say Broadway, some say the Bowery, some say it depends on latitude. For instance, 4th Ave is east of Broadway, but its feel has always been pretty different from, say, St. Marks Pl. Lots of peope would think of, say 4th Ave and 9th St. as "the Village", and not the "East Village". There's no "official" answer to these conundrums (as there would be with, say borough boundaries, community districts, and police precincts, all of which were established by official legislative processes) because neighborhoods have no official meaning in New York City. They're just commonly (mis)understood areas. For pretty much any nabe in the city, there's disagreement about its borders, whether it's really part of something else, etc.

"The problem is that, historically, Greenwich Village only went as far east as Broadway (which is where 4th Ave would be in this part of town)."

FWIW, Broadway is not the equivalent of 4th Ave -- 4th Ave is (above Astor Place); Lafayette St. is below Astor Pl. Park Ave was originally called 4th Ave (before Madison Ave was built and confused everybody a bit more).

How old is "East Village"; Lower East Side vs. East Village -- the term "East Village" is definitely older than the 80s. For instance, there was a well known literary/bohemian newspaper in the 60s called the East Village Other. Also, I'm pretty sure you'll find the term used by a number of Beat writers (e.g., Ginsburg, and Kerouac, though I don't have specific references). I think it's fair to say that at some point, "Lower East Side" included what today would be thought of as the East Village, and that the distinction between the two probably first appeared post-war. My immigrant forebears wouldn't have thought of their north-of-Houston tenements as any part of the village. In my youth, the East Village was where hippie/boho/outsider white people lived. The Lower East side was where Puerto Ricans (and dwindling numbers of Jews) lived. Houston St. was sort of the dividing line, but really the distinction was more cultural/ethnic than geographic.

As someone who works for city government and deals extensively with geography and geopolitical boundary issues, I think that

"Here's where it gets nasty: the city government now considers EVERYTHING between Houston & 14th to be Greenwich Village"

overstates things. I'm sure there are some documents and publications that present the Village this way for some narrow governental purposes. However, city government doesn't "officially" define neighborhoods (which don't really have any official meaning or status). Generally, city gov tries to map neighborhood boundaries where it thinks most New Yorkers would put them; it probably gets this stuff wrong a good percentage of the time.

Southern boundary of Greenwich Village - Contrary to what seems to be popular perception, the 1956 edition of Encyclopedia Britanica states that the southern border of Greenwich Village is Spring Street. Spring Street is two blocks south of Houston Street. While it is presently accepted that the "Greenwich Village" and "Chelsea" districts of New York derive their names from similarly named places in London's metropolitan area, it is claimed that New York's "Soho" was not named after London's Soho. It is claimed that New York's Soho was named solely for it's position "South of Houston". If Britanica is correct, it seems that the southern boundary of the village was moved in order to justify Soho's name.ADeC (talk) 16:08, 26 November 2007 (UTC)

Historical main roads?
The old map is great to have, but I'm having trouble figuring out which roads correspond to modern city streets. Can anyone layout perhaps where the central part of the village was back in, say, 1730 and what's there now? Thank you! --Jolomo 00:07, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

I added a citiation of why the village was referred to as Washington Square but I cannot fiture out how to mark it as the 4th citiation.

Alexander Hamilton
In Ron Chernow's biography of Alexander Hamilton, he writes that Hamilton was carried to a mansion that used to stand on Jane Street in the Greenwich Village, where he died on July 12, 1804. This is very important as it related to the famous death of a founding father of the country. Should it be included? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Here Comes a New Challenger!!

Gigante, 74, has been boss of the Genovese organised crime family of New York since the mid-1980s.

Please remove from Gigante from "Greenwich Village", sub-section "present day" First, it category is "Greenwich Village", sub-section "present day" Gigante went to prison in 1997 and died there. Second, Gigante did not live in Greenwich Village. His lawyers claimed he lived there and that he was insane. Gigante later admitted in court that the whole thing was a scam.

The article is about "Greenwich Village" not a criminal who use to walk around there for a scam.

 * Vincent Gigante grew up on the same streets in Greenwich Village where he would spend most of his adult life. Vincent Gigante, Mafia Leader Who Feigned Insanity, Dies at 77 He was born and raised there. Whether in later life he actually lived there or not, is not the point. He spent most of his days in Greenwich Village and was a characteristic figure wandering the streets in his bathrobe and slippers, mumbling incoherently to himself. That this was an elaborate act is also not the point: he acted it out in Greenwich Village. All in all, I think it deserves to be mentioned in an article on Greenwih Village. If you think it does not belong under 'Present day', put it under 'History' or – maybe – in 'In fiction and drama'. - Mafia Expert (talk) 13:50, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

As a side observer to this debate, I would say that definitions of 'lived in' are beside the point. This information deserves to go in the Vincent Gigante page, not the Greenwich Village page.

The article does not require constant lifelong residency in the Village to be included as being a notable facet of Greenwich Village legend, lore and reality. The Gigante issue is clear that even if he did not live there - he was an important fixture, legend, symbol and colorful character around and in Greenwich Village. I agree that any residential characterization can be removed, but Gigante as a Greenwich Village figure and fixture - should stay in the article.

 * Sullivan St. was home to Genovese crime family godfather Vincent "The Chin" Gigante. Born and raised in the Village he would spend most of his adult life there, although in later life he moved to New Jersey and the Upper East Side. Feigning insanity to escape prosecution, his lawyers claimed that Gigante lived at home with his mother Yolanda Gigante on La Guardia Place. He would emerge from his mother's apartment dressed in a bathrobe and pajamas or a windbreaker and shabby trousers. Accompanied by one or two bodyguards, he crossed the street to the Triangle Civic Improvement Association – a dingy storefront club that served as his headquarters – where he played pinochle and held whispered conversations with his associates. Shortly before his death in federal prison, he told a fellow inmate: "Greenwich Village is the greatest place in the U.S." - Mafia Expert (talk) 15:30, 3 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Most of that belongs in the Gigante article, nearly all of it is about his biography...This article is about Greenwich Village, and its history. In the scheme of things he's just one character among many. We could write a long biographical history of Eugene O'Neill or Joan Baez too....but that's not the point....one or two sentences can do it. The first two sentences above look fine to me.

Origin of Greenwich name
I think some proof should be given of a Dutch origin of Greenwich or remove that statement altogether. I changed probably to possibly, because without proof no way can one support the definite statement. Myself I don't think it is Dutch as New Amsterdam went nowhere near far North enough to include Greenwich Village.--Amedeo Felix (talk) 12:53, 9 February 2009 (UTC)

There appears to be independent scholarly support for a Dutch origin of the Greenwich Village name (see quote from The New Netherland Project web site below). 199.227.73.42 (talk) 16:37, 18 February 2009 (UTC)RJaffeEsq@aol.com

“Through the Dutch period, the village that sprang up here was called Noortwyck (“North District”) since it lay to the north of New Amsterdam. The name Greenwich sounds purely English, and most people assume as much, but they assume incorrectly. In the 1670s, when Yellis Mandeville moved here and bought property, he took with him the name of a Dutch village near where he had lived on Long Island, which has long since disappeared but which was then known as Greenwijck, or Pine District. The first record of the name change to Greenwich Village occurs in Mandeville’s will, in 1696, so it seems likely that he was responsible for the new name and thus that “Greenwich” was an Anglicization of a Dutch name.” From the The New Netherland Project web site (established under the joint sponsorship of the New York State Library and the Holland Society of New York  (http://www.nnp.org/vtour/regions/Manhattan/greenwich-village.html).

Here's another link, which seems to have copied the above: http://www.newnetherlandinstitute.org/history-and-heritage/digital-exhibitions/a-tour-of-new-netherland/manhattan/greenwich-village/. The name "Greenwijck" is also found on the Dutch Wikipedia, but (as always) without references. Since the article mentions "Groenwijck", not "Greenwijck", and there's a few web pages that support that, I changed the translation to "green district" (from "pine district"), so the name and translation are in line. A more authorative reference on the matter is appreciated though. Jalwikip (talk) 20:21, 4 December 2013 (UTC)

My father has done thorough research into this subject. It seems Yellis Mandeville is my 8x-Great grandfather. If you examine Page 159 of Volume 6 of I.N. Stokes's "The Iconography of Manhattan Island, 1498 - 1909 (v. 6)," you will find the following: "Presumably Capt, Warren named Greenwich House. But the neighbourhood has been called Greenwich for nearly half a century. The earliest mention of the name in the records, as applied to this section, is in the will of 'Yellis Mandeville of Greenwich' in the County of New York,' dated Tuesday, Sept. 15, 1696. --Liber Wills, I: 372 (old p. 109) (New York)."

At the Cafe Society
(From the article Josh White:)

"It is impossible to divorce Josh White's unprecedented rise to international fame in the 1940s from the Cafe Society nightclub. Located in New York's Greenwich Village, the Cafe Society was the first integrated nightclub in the United States, where blacks and whites could sit, socialize and dance in the same room and enjoy entertainment. It opened in late 1938 with a three-month engagement of Fletcher Henderson's Orchestra, Billie Holiday and comedian Jack Gilford, immediately making it New York's hottest club.

One day, John Hammond asked White to meet Barney Josephson, the owner of the club. As soon as Josephson heard White and saw the charisma he exuded, he told Hammond that White was going to become the first black male sex symbol in America. It was Josephson who decided at that first encounter, on the stage apparel he would have designed for White - that would become a trademark for years to come - a black velvet shirt open to the stomach and silk slacks. While starring at the Cafe Society over the next decade and becoming exposed to audiences, performers and beautiful music from around the world, White expanded his musical interests and repertoire to include a variety of styles which he would then subsequently record. He had remarkable success in popularizing recordings with a diverse group of musical genres, which ranged from his original repertoire of the Negro blues, gospel and protest songs, to Broadway show tunes, cabaret, pop, and white American, English and Australian folk songs.

The Greenwich Village club was so successful that Josephson soon opened a larger Cafe Society Uptown, at which White also performed, gaining him recognition by the New York Times as the "Darling of Fifth Avenue". The Roosevelt family, New York society, international royalty, and Hollywood stars regularly came to see White at the Cafe Society, and he used his fame and visibility to create, foster and develop relations between blacks and whites, making him a national figure and voice of racial integration in America.

He was thought to have numerous romantic liaisons with wealthy society women, singers, and Hollywood actresses, but the rumors were never substantiated. The women in question always referred to White as their close friend, and Lena Horne and Eartha Kitt also referred to him as a mentor.

The Cafe Society made White a star and put him in a unique position as an African American man. However, because of the club's unique social status of mixing the races, it also became a haven for New York's social progressives whose politics leaned to the Left. As it played a vital role in White's ascendance to stardom, it would also one day play a crucial role in his fall from grace."

If Cafe Society was located in Greenwich Village, shouldn't it be mentioned in this article, maybe a whole section about Cafe Society, considering the great importance Cafe Society had on the process of integrating afro-americans into the white society and the importance Cafe Society had as a meeting place for many musicians of all races and social and political activists?

Pair of crypts discovered at NYU Greenwich Village campus
http://news.yahoo.com/centuries-old-burial-vaults-found-beneath-nyc-street-172926241.html November 2015. Has anyone else heard about this? Where exactly on the campus was this found? Do you think it deserves a mention in the article (or one of the connecting articles)? --RThompson82 (talk) 01:33, 5 December 2015 (UTC)

Why are all the "notable residents" so contemporary?
As shown by the category "People from Greenwich Village", there are a lot of folks who were notable in past eras, many of whom are still notable today, who lived in the Village. Yet, the "notable residents" list on this page seems to just include recent people. I can see needing to feature a selective list on the article page, but a list that's so heavy on recent people seems to be ignoring the history of the neighborhood. Any thoughts on or objection to restructuring the list so it's got a few more of the residents from the past? Everybody will also still be in the overall category. TheBlinkster (talk) 05:59, 26 February 2016 (UTC)

Hearing crickets, I went ahead and changed a couple more recent or lesser known people out and put in a couple who were older and more known. TheBlinkster (talk) 21:18, 5 March 2016 (UTC)

Did "up the river" originally refer to Sing Sing or Newgate?
The Sing Sing article says "The expression 'up the river' to describe someone in prison or heading to prison derives from the practice of sentencing people convicted in New York City to serve their terms in Sing Sing. The prison is literally up the Hudson River from the city. The slang expression dates from 1891." The Greenwich Village article says "being sentenced to Newgate became known as being 'sent up the river', an expression which carried over when it was replaced by the new Sing Sing Prison in Ossining, New York." (Newgate closed in 1829.) Either it originally referred to Newgate and is much older than 1891, or it dates only to 1891 and always referred to Sing Sing. Either the Sing Sing article is wrong about the origin and the date or the Greenwich Village article is wrong about the origin and the carry over.47.139.43.80 (talk) 05:04, 17 March 2019 (UTC)
 * The Sing Sing article is wrong. According to this book it was in use at least in 1825, which is well before Newgate closed. I don't know where 1891 comes from. epicgenius (talk) 16:11, 21 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Pinging because this is a relevant discussion. Maybe 1891 is when the slang term "up the river" was popularized. But it definitely was being used earlier than that. epicgenius (talk) 17:12, 21 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Someone mentioned this very discrepancy on the Sing Sing article's talk page, back in 2008. The same IP user as above also mentioned this on Sunday in the Sing Sing talk. I found that Etymonline among other sources cite Sing Sing as the sole object of the term. I saw that the one book, seemingly a pretty casual or gift-shop-friendly history of the city, lists Newgate as the first use, though it doesn't provide any information as to when, where, how, or anything, nor does it give a citation (which it does for other facts). Are there any better sources, any concrete examples of usage with regard to Newgate? ɱ  (talk) 22:41, 21 March 2019 (UTC)

Preservation
The entire preservation section is currently written with clear editorializing in favor of preservationists. Most sources are taken from one perspective, and parts were (or still are) written in a narrative-style, rather than stating the facts or presenting conflicting arguments. The worst section were the NYU disputes, which I have mostly fixed, however issues still remain in the overall section. k-w (talk) 08:48, 28 October 2022 (UTC)

Move discussion in progress
There is a move discussion in progress on Talk:Cornelia Street (song) which affects this page. Please participate on that page and not in this talk page section. Thank you. —RMCD bot 21:19, 20 October 2023 (UTC)

Population Density
The articles on New York neighborhoods that I know all have a sidebar of facts like population per square mile, up near the top, where it is easy to find on your phone.

I just scrolled through the article without finding that. Of course it's a very large article, so I'm not saying for sure it's not there. But it is not near the top where it would be easy to find. JMassengale (talk) 15:29, 9 November 2023 (UTC)

 * My apologies. It is there. Can I delete my comment?
 * This is very odd. I scrolled through the article 3 times without seeing the quick facts box. Again my apologies JMassengale (talk) 15:32, 9 November 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Azurill

Untitled
AZURILL (Pokémon Ruby & Sapphire): This is the unevolved form of Gold-&-Silver-onward Pokémon, Marill (the former very popular 'Aqua Mouse' or 'pikablu'). Its infancy is apparent, as its body has not 'grown into' the proper scale for its gargantuan tail. The baloon-like tail - according to the Pokédex - is filled with oil, allowing Azuill to float on the surface and always have a nice relaxing time when swiming. It's only an ickle mouse, really.

Changing gender
It is also the only Pokémon whose gender ratio is different than its evolved form—probably a mistake on the part of the game's designers—and due to the way Pokémon genders are determined, this means that 1 in every 3 female Azurills change to male when they evolve.

Yes, I know someone is going to call me out on this (it hasn't been reverted yet AFAIK, but it's undoubtedly gonna happen), but it does happen. Check the gender ratios on serebii.net—they do agree with this—and try it in the games (mind, it's only 1 in 3 female Azurills, and it never happens to males.) --HeroicJay
 * I find it very hard to believe that a Pokémon will change genders when it evolves. If you capture Marril in the wild, then half will be male, and half will be female.  But when specifically breeding, the baby Azurill will have the seperate gender ratio.  Sonic Mew 19:10, Jun 23, 2005 (UTC)
 * Maybe you find it hard to believe, but it DOES happen. Feel free to test it. (You need multiple distinct female Azurills to test - five or so should probably do it, but you can have a few extras to be safe. At 5, the chances you have such an Azurill are abouit 83% by my calculations, and at 10, 98%. Using the same Azurill by saving right before it evolves will NOT work - if it's female after evolution once, it will be the next time too.) Let me explain. When a Pokemon is born, met, or whatever, the game does not flip a coin to see if it is male or female. Rather, it assigns a random number between 0 and 255 as the Gender Value (henceforth, GV). The GV of an individual Pokemon never changes, nor should it. Each Pokemon species has a threshhold for their gender values. I might have the male and female swapped, but the way it works is that, if the threshhold is 255, the Pokemon is automatically genderless. If it's 254, the Pokemon is automatically male. If it's 0, it's automatically female. Otherwise, if the GV is below or equal to the threshhold, it's male, and if it's above, it's female (again, I could have male and female swapped here.) The deal is, Azurill and Marill have different threshholds. They almost certainly shouldn't, but they do. Since the GV doesn't change when it evolves, if its GV falls between the two different threshholds, it'll swap from female to male. This does happen. I have personally seen it with my own eyes, talked with others online who have seen it, and it's a really easy test (the hardest part is evolving the blasted things - they're happiness evolvers.) I know it doesn't make sense. That's why I specifically said it was probably a mistake on the part of the game's designers. But I'm just the reporter. Also, probably the only reason this isn't as well-known as it should be is because... who really uses Azurills anyway? I had no idea that the gender ratios were different until it was explicitly pointed out to me, and I still had to see it with my own eyes before believing it. Go ahead! Test it! Be my guest! Complain, I will not! --HeroicJay 28 June 2005 07:37 (UTC)

Methley

Methley is a dispersed village in the City of Leeds metropolitan borough, south east of Leeds, West Yorkshire, England. It is located near Rothwell, Oulton, Woodlesford, Mickletown and Allerton Bywater. The Leeds City Ward is called Kippax and Methley. It is within the triangle formed by Leeds, Castleford and Wakefield, and between the confluence of the River Aire and River Calder. The latter is crossed by Methley Bridge, the A639 road, about a mile south-east of the village.

Location and history
Today, the village is often described in terms of the area around Church Lane, Main Street and Pinfold Lane. However, the buildings on these streets largely date from the 20th century – and this area does not represent the original geographical centre of the village. The original village was established near to Saint Oswald's Church, and in particular along Church Side. This is reflected in the 17th- and 18th-century buildings along Churchside and parts of Watergate. The village has a history of coal mining. At one stage there were five mines in operation in the village – Savile Colliery, Methley Junction, Foxholes (Scholey Hill), Newmarket, and Newmarket Silkstone. The last pit (Saville Colliery) closed in the mid-1980s.

Part of the village (the area south and west of the M62 motorway) was ceded to the City of Wakefield Metropolitan district council in the 1990s. This area, which includes the hamlets of Newmarket and Scholey Hill, was subject to a planning dispute regarding an industrial and leisure development as villagers feared increased traffic levels – particularly along the A642, B6135 (Newmarket Lane and Watergate), Park Lane and Churchside. Eric Pickles, the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government approved the development on 21 June 2012. The new stadium for Wakefield Trinity Wildcats Rugby league club will form part of the development and should be completed by 2015.

Methley was in the wapentake of Agbrigg in the West Riding of Yorkshire in 1086. Methley was surveyed by the Tudor cartographer, Christopher Saxton, author of the first atlas of England (1577). However, the map is now lost.

Methley Hall
Methley Hall was the former seat of the Earl of Mexborough. During the fourteenth century the de Waterton family married into the de Methley family and moved to Methley Hall, a large, imposing and solid castellated building, mostly spread over three storeys rising to four by the turreted entrance. An eighteenth century watercolour shows a great hall with a minstrels gallery and grand staircase, decorated and embossed ceiling with a full-length oriel window. Young Richard Plantagenet, Richard of York, lived here from the ages of four to twelve, with Waterton's family until 1423 when national events changed things. Robert Waterton was the custodian of Richard II whilst constable of Pontefract Castle from 1399 and later gaoler of James I of Scotland. He was esquire to Henry Bolingbroke, the future Henry IV. The seat at Methley Hall was conferred in 1410 to Robert's brother John Waterton. The Hall, which featured in a 1907 edition of Country Life, was demolished in 1964, although the Mexborough Estate are still significant landowners in the district. Queen Mary (Mary of Teck), consort of H. M. King George V, visited the village in 1935 and stayed at the Hall as a guest of the Earl. Titus Salt leased Methley Hall from the Earl of Mexborough between 1856 and 1865 according to Salt's biographer Balgarnie.

Church
The parish church Saint Oswald's is a 12th century Grade I listed building which had a spire from the mid-18th century to 1937. The spire became unsafe and was dismantled. The Castleford-born artist Henry Moore was a frequent visitor to the church. Nikolaus Pevsner documented the church and Methley Hall as part of his Buildings of England series in the late 1950s. Alan Bennett visited the church in December 1998 as mentioned in his collection of writings Untold Stories (2005), a visit which was filmed as part of a special The South Bank Show charting the writer's early life.

"Fatty Cake" School House
The Old Pinder Green school house is a Grade II listed building dating from 1637 at the junction of Watergate and the main Leeds to Pontefract Road. The school closed in 1881 and became a private residence, now known as the Fatty Cake School House.

Railway
Methley was once served by three railway stations: Methley North (closed 1957); Methley Junction (closed 1943); and Methley South (closed 1960). The original railway line through the village was built by the North Midland Railway in 1840 as part of the Derby to Leeds main line. This route now forms part of the Hallam (Leeds – Sheffield) and Pontefract Lines. The proposed route of the Birmingham to Leeds HS2 rail line would have passed to the west of the village between Scholey Hill, Clumpcliffe and Lemonroyd Lock, where it would have curved west at that point to take trains into Leeds city centre via Woodlesford. The line has now been axed and will not happen.

Second World War POW camp
Methley was the site of a German POW camp during the Second World War. The camp was located on the north side of Park Lane near to The Lodge. The foundations of the POW huts are still visible on close inspection. POWs were used as agricultural labourers on the Mexborough Estate as many villagers had been recruited into the armed forces. The POWs were invited to perform Stille Nacht, Heilige Nacht (Silent Night) in German during a Christmas Eve service at St Oswald's Church – an event still remembered by some villagers.

The BBC Inside Out programme (5 December 2011) reported that Artur Braun, one of the inmates of the POW camp, produced a large painting (size 8 ft x 8 ft) entitled 'Our Lady of the ruins' during the winter of 1944–45. It featured the Madonna with child in a ruined city surrounded by desperate people appealing to God for protection from war. The painting is believed to depict the artist's wife (as the Madonna) in the ruins of the city of Freiburg im Breisgau in Baden-Württemberg, (Germany) (the painting clearly shows Freiburg Munster in the background). Braun may have produced the painting after hearing of the death of his wife during an allied air raid on Freiburg im Breisgau (Braun's home town) during November 1944. For many years the painting was owned by a convent in Lancashire, then was sold at auction in 1997.

Local points of interest
The Yorkshire Imperial Band, formerly the Yorkshire Imperial Copperworks Band, used to rehearse in the village. The band, who have won the Champions of Great Britain title and three British Open titles, is one of the country's foremost brass bands and have produced recordings and performed concerts on the BBC.

The composer Edward Elgar was friends with the former owner (Mr. Embleton) of 'The Cedars' – now a residential home – and often stayed in the village. Nick Hodgson, drummer of the Leeds band the Kaiser Chiefs, has family connections with the village. The band officially opened the new village primary school on 16 January 2006. Other notable residents of the village have included Rugby league players Brian Lockwood, Dean Mountain, Daryl Powell, Ben Crooks, Kelvin Skerrett, Joe Arundel and footballer Paul Rickers. .

Each year the village holds a Scarecrow Festival, a competition in which residents take part.

Methley Cricket Club won the Village Cup national competition at Lord's, in 1998. Yorkshire and Worcestershire player Matthew Waite, has represented Methley C.C.

Methley United A.F.C. (formerly Methley United JFC) are the local football club. The original village football club was Methley Perseverance F.C. Methley Welfare F.C. and Methley Rangers F.C. are also now defunct village clubs. United were formed in 2002 for local juniors to play football in the village and the club in 2021, now have a staggering 29 teams, made up of junior teams (U5s-u18s), alongside a male vets team and ladies team. The club are one of the fastest growing football clubs in the country.

Methley Warriors A.R.L.F.C and Methley Royals R.L.F.C., are the village Rugby League teams.

Core Design

Core Design Limited (known as Rebellion (Derby) Ltd between 2006 and 2010) was a British video game developer based in Derby. Founded in May 1988 by former Gremlin Graphics employees, it originally bore the name Megabrite until rebranding as Core Design in October the same year. The company was acquired by umbrella company CentreGold in December 1994, which in turn was acquired by Eidos Interactive in April 1996. In May 2006, the Core Design personnel and assets were acquired by Rebellion Developments, and the company became Rebellion Derby, which was then shut down in March 2010.

History
Based in the city of Derby, England, Core Design was founded in 1988 by Chris Shrigley, Andy Green, Rob Toone, Terry Lloyd, Simon Phipps, Dave Pridmore, Jeremy Heath-Smith, Kevin Norburn and Greg Holmes. Most were former employees of Gremlin Graphics. The studio was part of distribution company CentreGold when it was acquired by Eidos Interactive in 1996. Heath-Smith regarded the acquisition as a relief, commenting, "The funding of development is so expensive that I doubt we could have continued to fund ourselves as an independent company." Eidos subsequently sold most of CentreGold, but retained U.S. Gold, the owners of Core Design.

The company is widely known for the Tomb Raider series. The first game was created by Toby Gard and Paul Douglas, released in 1996, and followed by several sequels. The success of the first Tomb Raider has been credited with making Eidos Interactive a major force in the industry, and turned Eidos's 1996 pretax loss of $2.6 million into a $14.5 million profit. In September 1997, Sony Computer Entertainment's U.S. arm, SCEA, signed an agreement with Eidos to make the sequel exclusive to the PlayStation console. The deal was extended to include Tomb Raider III. Fourth and fifth games in the franchise, Tomb Raider: The Last Revelation and Tomb Raider: Chronicles respectively, followed.

After the critical failure of Tomb Raider: The Angel of Darkness in 2003, parent company Eidos put Crystal Dynamics, another Eidos-owned studio, in charge of Tomb Raider franchise development. This prompted members of the Core Design management team, including Heath-Smith, and development staff to leave the company and establish a new company, Circle Studio.

In May 2006, Eidos announced that independent developer Rebellion Developments had acquired Core Design's assets and staff, while the Core brand and intellectual property, including Tomb Raider, remained in Eidos' possession.

In June 2006, Crystal Dynamics was confirmed to have a PSP anniversary edition of the original Tomb Raider in development. Remnants of the Core Design team (under the banner of Rebellion) went on to work on several titles in years since, including Shellshock 2: Blood Trails and Rogue Warrior. Starting in January 2010, due to an expiring lease on Rebellion Derby's offices, Rebellion Developments started seeking restructuring opportunities for the studio. As no other possibility than closure was found, Rebellion Derby was closed down effective on 17 March 2010.

Legacy
In July 2010, shortly after the closure of the studio, a nearby road in Derby was named "Lara Croft Way", in honour of the studio's contribution to the creative industries.

The Bells (poem)

"The Bells" is a heavily onomatopoeic poem by Edgar Allan Poe which was not published until after his death in 1849. It is perhaps best known for the diacopic use of the word "bells". The poem has four parts to it; each part becomes darker and darker as the poem progresses from "the jingling and the tinkling" of the bells in part 1 to the "moaning and the groaning" of the bells in part 4.

Analysis
This poem can be interpreted in many different ways, the most basic of which is simply a reflection of the sounds that bells can make, and the emotions evoked from that sound. For example, "From the bells bells bells bells/Bells bells bells!" brings to mind the clamoring of myriad church bells. Several deeper interpretations exist as well. One is that the poem is a representation of life from the nimbleness of youth to the pain of age. Growing despair is emphasized alongside the growing frenzy in the tone of the poem.

The sounds of the verses, specifically the repetitive "bells, bells, bells, bells, bells, bells, bells", lie on a narrow line between sense and nonsense, causing a feeling of instability. Poe uses – and popularised – the word "tintinnabulation", often wrongly thought to be his own coinage, based on the Latin word for "bell", tintinnabulum. The series of "bells" echo the imagined sounds of the various bells, from the silver bells following the klip-klop of the horses, to the "dong, ding-dong" of the swinging golden and iron bells, to screeching "whee-aaah" of the brazen bells. The series are always four, followed by three, always beginning and ending on a stressed syllable. The meter changes to iambic in the lines with repeated "bells", bringing the reader into their rhythm. Most of the poem is a more hurried trochaic tetrameter.

The bells of which he writes are thought to be those he heard from Fordham University church's bell tower, since Poe resided in the same neighborhood as that university. He also frequently strolled about Fordham's campus conversing with both the students and the Jesuits.

Critical response
Richard Wilbur characterized "The Bells" as "altogether a tour de force". Critics have analyzed the musical or sound of the poem as opposed to its literary meaning. A. E. DuBois in "The Jazz Bells of Poe" places the emphasis on the musical quality of the poem which presages jazz and 20th century musical idioms. DuBois sees the poem as a dramatic song that is a precursor for Vachel Lindsay. DuBois makes comparisons to jazz music and places the poem in the style of musical and poetic "primativism" which was ahead of its time in the 1840s.

F. O. Matthiessen rejected the repetitive sounds employed and musical tone as "a case of onomatopoeia pushed to a point where it would hardly be possible or desirable to go again". Edward H. Davidson, however, praised its use of repetitive sounds: "It has been rightly praised for its experimental and effective onomatopoeia; its theme is probably nothing more profound than the four ages of man".

Poe biographer Jeffrey Meyers noted that "The Bells" is often criticized for sounding mechanical and forced.

Publication history
Poe is believed to have written "The Bells" in May 1848 and submitted it three times to Sartain's Union Magazine, a magazine co-owned by his friend John Sartain, until it was finally accepted. He was paid fifteen dollars for his work, though it was not published until after his death in the November 1849 issue. It was also published in Horace Greeley's the New York Daily Tribune newspaper on the front page of its October 17, 1849 issue as "Poe's Last Poem".

Inspiration for the poem is often granted to Marie Louise Shew, a woman who had helped care for Poe's wife Virginia as she lay dying. One day, as Shew was visiting Poe at his cottage in Fordham, New York, Poe needed to write a poem but had no inspiration. Shew allegedly heard ringing bells from afar and playfully suggested to start there, possibly even writing the first line of each stanza.

Adaptations
Sergei Rachmaninoff (1873–1943) composed a choral symphony The Bells, Op. 35, based on a Russian adaptation of the poem by Konstantin Balmont. The symphony follows classical sonata form: first movement, slow movement, scherzo, and finale, thus honoring the poem's four sections. (The work is sometimes performed in English, using not Poe's original, but a translation of Balmont's adaptation by Fanny S. Copeland.) The Scottish composer Hugh S. Roberton (1874–1947) published "Hear the Tolling of the Bells" (1909), "The Sledge Bells" (1909), and "Hear the Sledges with the Bells" (1919) based on Poe's poem. Josef Holbrooke composed his "The Bells, Prelude, Op. 50" on Poe's poem, and American folksinger Phil Ochs composed a tune to the poem recorded on his 1964 album All the News That's Fit to Sing.

Eric Woolfson, musical partner to Alan Parsons in the Alan Parsons Project, has written two albums based on the writings of Poe. His second, Poe: More Tales of Mystery and Imagination, includes a song entitled "The Bells", for which he set Poe's words to music. This album was also the basis for a musical stage production that was performed in England, Austria, and other European countries. Pink Floyd have referenced the poem in the last verse of their song "Time" on the album The Dark Side of the Moon (1973). In 1993 Danish composer Poul Ruders wrote a piece "The Bells" for high soprano and ten instruments, using Poe's text in its entirety although in Dutch. The piece was premiered in London, and has appeared on a CD from Bridge Records, New York.

MC Lars, a nerdcore hip hop musician, sang a complete version of the poem on his 2012 Edgar Allan Poe EP titled "(Rock) The Bells".

Ibn Abi Sadiq

Ibn Abi Sadiq al-Naishaburi, Abu al-Qasim ‘Abd al-Rahman ibn ‘Ali (Arabic and Persian: أبوالقاسم عبد الرحمن بن علي بن أبي صادق النيشابوري ) was an 11th-century Persian physician from Nishapur in Khorasan. He was a pupil of Avicenna. As he composed a popular commentary on the Aphorisms of Hippocrates, he was known in some circles as "the second Hippocrates" (Buqrat al-thani). Ismail Gorgani, the author of Zakhireye Khwarazmshahi, completed his studies under his guidance.

His commentary on the Hunayn ibn Ishaq's Questions on Medicine, however, may have been even more popular, judging from the large number of copies preserved today. Ibn Abi Sadiq also wrote a commentary on the Prognostics of Hippocrates, on Galen's treatise On the Usefulness of the Parts, and on Razi's treatise Doubts about Galen (Shukuk ‘alá Jalinus). According to the medieval biographical sources, he completed the commentary on Galen's On the Usefulness of the Parts in the year 1068 AD, which provides us with the one firm date in his biography.

Texarkana and Fort Smith Railway

The Texarkana and Fort Smith Railway was the Texas subsidiary of the Kansas City Southern Railway, operating railroad lines in the states of Arkansas and Texas, with headquarters at Texarkana, Texas.

On June 18, 1885, the Texarkana and Northern Railway, organized by William. L. Whitaker, a lumberman and railroad contractor in Texarkana, was chartered by the state of Texas, and built a ten-mile line from Texarkana north to Whitaker's timber lands along the Red River. On July 9, 1889, the charter was amended, changing the name to Texarkana and Fort Smith Railway, and granting authority to extend the line all the way to Fort Smith, Arkansas.

By 1892, when the T&FS had built another 16 miles north from the Red River to Wilton, Arkansas, the Kansas City, Pittsburg and Gulf Railroad gained control of the railway and set about using the T&FS as the Texas link in its planned route between Kansas City and the Gulf of Mexico. At that time, Article X of the Texas Constitution required all railroads operating in the state to be headquartered in Texas.

By 1897, the T&FS had extended its rails 85 miles from Wilton north to Mena, Arkansas, as well as 29 miles southward from Texarkana to the Arkansas-Louisiana border, where it joined KCP&G rails leading to Shreveport. South of Shreveport, the T&FS also constructed a line from the Louisiana-Texas border on the Sabine River southward to Beaumont and Port Arthur, Texas, a new city created as the marine terminus of the route. The entire KCP&G route opened from Kansas City to the Gulf on November 1, 1897, with the T&FS operating 105 miles of the main line in Arkansas and 79 miles in Texas.

In the wake of a financial crisis, the KCP&G was reorganized as the Kansas City Southern Railway on April 1, 1900. In 1934, in a landmark decision, the Supreme Court upheld an Interstate Commerce Commission ruling that overrode the Texas law requiring in-state railroad headquarters. Subsequently, the Texarkana and Fort Smith Railway was leased to the Kansas City Southern in 1934 and merged on December 31, 1943.

Untitled
I heard an interview with Frank Miller recently; he also takes credit for turning Superman and Batman from friends into colleague/antagonists; and his Batman: The Dark Knight Returns predates Byrne's Man of Steel. -- ShawnVW

No. 24
Anyone know why the release of issue 24 was delayed by nearly 5 months? 23skidoo 17:03, 10 April 2006 (UTC)

No, in fact, i have nearly given up on the series. This With a Vengeance Story arch is one of the by-far STUPIDEST story archs. It makes no sense. its just dumb. Superman/Batman was one of my faovrite comics until this one. I think its time they cancel it or givei t back to the artist of either the 2nd or 3rd story arch and stop it with the shitty drawings.

 * The reason is because in June of last year, Jeph Loeb's son, Sam, died of cancer after a few years struggling with it. Rather than get someone else in to finish it, DC preferred to let him have his own time even though he signed to Marvel last September.Tony2Times 10:13, 2 May 2006 (UTC)

 * Said son will also be the author of #26, a story he wrote and nearly completed before his death, it has been helped along by 25 major comic book creators.Tony2Times 10:30, 2 May 2006 (UTC)

Not a forum, not a substitute for buying the comic
The purpose of this talk page is to discuss edits to the article. The article itself is bloated and gives away too much of the storylines in the books. It all needs to be summarized better and trimmed substantially. CovenantD 06:59, 15 June 2006 (UTC)
 * I was just looking for something to do. Do I enjoy summarizing too much? --Chris Griswold 07:12, 15 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Go for it. Be ruthless. CovenantD 07:14, 15 June 2006 (UTC)
 * I ended up overhauling the entire article. --Chris Griswold 11:53, 15 June 2006 (UTC)
 * And did a nice job. CovenantD 19:58, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Thanks. I really appreciate that. --Chris Griswold 07:50, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

I think the story arc summaries are okay (with the exception of "With A Vengeance", but that's only because that story is so convoluted anyway), but I agree that if the additions to the article continue, then the section on the arcs may have to be spun off into its own article. Nightscream 07:27, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

"With a Vengeance"
I agree that the storyline that wrapped a month ago made absolutely no sense, so I would question whether it's possible for the article to make much sense of it itself.

DKR
I've tried to work with it, but the bit about Dark Knight Returns still doesn't make sense in the context of the article. It contradicts the first sentence of the paragraph, that the characters are best pals. Additionally, it needs to be cited, and I don't have the information for the DVD mentioned in the edit summary. --Chris Griswold 01:23, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

Links
I would like to add http://www.batmanytb.com/comics/titles/supermanbatman/index.php to the links section. If Superman Database can be added, I think BatmanYTB should be too.. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Xphermg (talk • contribs)
 * No. It's a commercial site with ads and its own YTB store. And you're right. The items getting sold on the first page of the Superman Database are reason to treat it the same as the BatmanYTB page. Exclude both. Your persistence in joining Wikipedia just to promote this site (see your contribution history) certainly indicates that you're one of the people making money off the YTB site. More importantly, it just doesn't offer us anything informative that we can't get from a bunch of other sites. Doczilla 06:17, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template.

The Bounty
I thought the heroes that attacked Superman in the first storyline were being mentally controlled. If so, it should merit a mention IMHO. Lots42 02:14, 2 September 2007 (UTC)

The Movie
From the article: "References in pop culture A fictional movie billboard advertising a Superman/Batman film appears briefly in one of the Times Square sequences, in the film I Am Legend, along with signs adverstising the actual Broadway musicals Wicked and Hairspray."

Well, there's gonna be a movie 2 months from now. Was the sign in the movie a hint? Or is it coincidental? Animation must have started quite some time ago. (maybe if we compare the sign from I am Legend to promo material from the new movie) Robin.lemstra (talk) 12:12, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

Breaking it down by writer
I don't think that breaking the publication history down by writer is particularly helpful. Neither every story arc nor every writer who works on the series is going to be notable. It would probably be more useful to the reader to summarize the highlights of the run into a paragraph or two. --GentlemanGhost (talk) 19:21, 27 October 2009 (UTC)

 * I still think this, one year later. --GentlemanGhost (talk) 22:30, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

Power Girl in World Finest aka Public Enemies
So Power Girl appears in the third issue of this story arc. If it follows the "New Earth" continuity (according to DC wikia) Power Girl should be at Earth Two. So can someone explain me how she is acting at the New Earth? --Hufflepuff (talk) 10:54, 27 March 2020 (UTC)

KROC-FM

KROC-FM (106.9 MHz) is a commercial radio station serving Rochester, Minnesota. The station's transmitter is located near the Minnesota-Iowa border. The station is owned by Townsquare Media. It airs a top 40 (CHR) music format.

History
The station was owned by the Southern Minnesota Broadcasting Company, along with other properties in the area, but they were sold to Cumulus Media in December 2003. KROC-FM went on-the-air at 106.9 MHz in 1965 with an easy listening and classical music. In 1967, the hybrid format was dropped, and the FM began simulcasting with KROC-AM until the mid-1970s, then changed to an automated MOR format called The Great Entertainers. That format would be replaced with a highly successful Top 40/CHR format, under the FM 107 KROC moniker. In the 1950s, the owners launched a television station (KROC-TV), though that is now operated separately by Gray Television as KTTC.

On August 30, 2013, a deal was announced in which Townsquare Media would acquire 53 Cumulus stations, including KROC-FM, for $238 million. The deal is part of Cumulus' acquisition of Dial Global; Townsquare and Dial Global are both controlled by Oaktree Capital Management. The sale to Townsquare was completed on November 14, 2013.
