Christians for Biblical Equality

Christians for Biblical Equality (CBE) is an organization that promotes Christian egalitarianism and is headquartered in Minneapolis, Minnesota. CBE's Mission Statement reads: "CBE exists to promote biblical justice and community by educating Christians that the Bible calls women and men to share authority equally in service and leadership in the home, church, and world." According to its website, CBE "is a nonprofit organization of Christian men and women who believe that the Bible, properly interpreted, teaches the fundamental equality of men and women of all ethnic groups, all economic classes, and all age groups, based on the teachings of Scriptures such as Galatians 3:28: 'There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus' (NIV 2011)."

CBE believes that ordination for eldership and teaching roles in church services are not just for men but women can also be equally ordained as pastors and elders.

CBE exists to broadly communicate " that all believers – without regard to gender, ethnicity or class – must exercise their God-given gifts with equal authority and equal responsibility in church, home and world." CBE has grown to include members from over 100 denominations and 65 countries.

Services
The organization is an educational ministry that publishes three award-winning journals, hosts a Web site and a blog, and a weekly e-newsletter. It provides an online bookstore devoted to reviewing and promoting resources on gender and the Bible from an egalitarian (as opposed to complementarian) perspective. It supports grassroots chapters around the world. CBE's scholarly journal, Priscilla Papers, and ministry magazine, Mutuality, have received various publishing awards.

Beliefs
CBE holds that any interpretation of Scripture that prohibits women from using their spiritual gifts and abilities in ministry constitutes injustice. CBE defines injustice as an abuse of power, taking from others freedom, dignity, resources, and even life itself. CBE considers gender discrimination within the church to be an injustice that harms the Christian church at large and Christian ministry in the world.

CBE holds the following core values: 1. Scripture is our authoritative guide for faith, life, and practice.

2. Patriarchy (male dominance) is not a biblical ideal but a result of sin.

3. Patriarchy is an abuse of power, taking from females what God has given them: their dignity, and freedom, their leadership, and often their very lives.

4. While the Bible reflects patriarchal culture, the Bible does not teach patriarchy in human relationships.

5. Christ's redemptive work frees all people from patriarchy, calling women and men to share authority equally in service and leadership.

6. God's design for relationships includes faithful marriage between a man and a woman, celibate singleness and mutual submission in Christian community. 7. The unrestricted use of women's gifts is integral to the work of the Holy Spirit and essential for the advancement of the gospel in the world.

8. Followers of Christ are to oppose injustice and patriarchal teachings and practices that marginalize and abuse females and males.

History
CBE was founded out of concerns over the inability of many women to use their gifts in ministry, and many evangelical egalitarians objecting to the earlier evangelical feminist organisation the Evangelical Women's Caucus (EWC) supporting gay rights. In 1986, the EWC voted on a resolution recognising its "lesbian minority" and supporting civil rights for homosexual people, which led to many members resigning, including Catherine Clark Kroeger who was encouraged by others to form an alternate organization.

Several evangelical leaders, including Kroeger, Gilbert Bilezikian, W. Ward Gasque, Stanley Gundry, Gretchen Gaebelein Hull, Jo Anne Lyon, Alvera Mickelsen and Roger Nicole assembled in 1987 to publish their perspective in a new scholarly journal, Priscilla Papers. The group determined that a national organization was needed to provide education, support, and leadership about Biblical equality. They constructed a statement entitled "Men, Women, and Biblical Equality" that provides an overview of the Biblical teachings that support women's full participation in all levels of ministry, as well as mutuality in marriage. The statement was widely published in 1990 in such national forums as Christianity Today and Leadership. The Statement has been translated and disseminated into 15 languages.

Christians for Biblical Equality was established on January 2, 1988. Catherine Clark Kroeger served as the first president of the organization. Since 2001, Mimi Haddad has served as CBE's second president. CBE's papers are held at Catherine Clark Kroeger's family home.

An Australian Chapter of CBE was established in Melbourne in October 2005. This has now expanded to three Australian Chapters, in Melbourne, Sydney and Perth.

The Council on Biblical Manhood and Womanhood (CBMW) was formed in 1987 to defend a complementarian perspective.

1994 proposed statement on abuse
In 1994, at the CBE's request, three members of the Council on Biblical Manhood and Womanhood met with three of the CBE's leaders in Chicago to discuss potential points of agreement. According to Wayne Grudem, both sides overcame some misunderstandings about each other. One result of the meeting was an agreement to work on a joint statement on abuse in marriage, which was drafted by the CBMW with feedback from the CBE. However, before it was to be issued, the CBE's board declined to join the statement. The statement was later published in the CBMW's own newsletter (later renamed the Journal for Biblical Manhood and Womanhood). It has subsequently been published on their website and in many of their publications.

James Beck, declining the joint statement on behalf of the CBE Board of Directors, stated: "We do not feel it would be helpful to convene a joint press conference at ETS to issue a joint statement on abuse. CBE's position on abuse flows directly out of our theological understanding of Scripture and what it teaches about gender and roles. If we attempt to issue a joint statement with an organization that differs fundamentally from us on this issue, we feel both organizations would be giving very mixed signals to their respective constituencies." Wayne Grudem commented: "We regret that CBE declined to join us in this statement. If CBE will not join us in something on which we agree (condemning abuse), then I see little hope that they will be willing to join us in constructive dialogue on issues where we disagree. This is unfortunate for the evangelical world."

Conferences
Beginning in 1989, CBE has presented international conferences—three-day events consisting of plenary sessions and workshops in such U.S. cities such as Cape Cod, Massachusetts; Saint Paul, Minnesota; Winter Park, Colorado; Wheaton, Illinois; San Diego, California; Orlando, Florida; Dallas, Texas; Portland, Oregon; Denver, Colorado; Toronto, Canada; St. Louis, Missouri; Houston, Texas; Seattle, Washington; Chicago, Illinois; and Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The 2019 International Conference will be conducted in Houston, Texas.

International off-shore conferences have been held in Durham, England; Bangalore, India; Limuru, Kenya; Medellín, Colombia; and in Australia.

SMRT Buses

SMRT Buses is the second largest bus operator in Singapore. A subsidiary of SMRT Corporation, it traded as Trans Island Bus Services until 10 May 2004.

Trans-Island Bus Services (1983–2004)
In April 1981, Communications & Labour Minister Ong Teng Cheong announced the government would grant a license to an operator that was willing to compete with Singapore Bus Service (SBS), that had operated all services in Singapore since 1973, with the aim of improving service levels. In January 1982, City Shuttle Service operator Singapore Shuttle Bus (SSB) lodged applications with the Ministry of Communications to establish a second bus operator and the Registry Of Vehicles for four bus depots. The applications were approved on 12 March that year, with SSB to take over 11 services in Woodlands and Sembawang from SBS.

A new company, Trans-Island Bus Services, was founded on 31 May 1982, ordering a fleet of 250 buses including 90 Hinos. Operations commenced on 3 April 1983 with 40 buses.

On 12 March 1987, TIBS purchased its former parent company SSB. On 27 April, TIBS was listed on SESDAQ, although Ng Ser Miang retained a majority shareholding. By this stage it operated 361 buses.

In 1995, as part of the government's plan to make the local bus system more competitive, 16 SBS Transit services were handed over to TIBS along with the tender to operate bus services in the north-east corridor, mainly the developing towns Sengkang and Punggol as well as Bukit Panjang.

In 1996, TIBS began operations at the Woodlands Regional Bus Interchange, Singapore's first underground bus interchange. It was also the first bus interchange designed to accommodate articulated buses. some of which were designed by world-renowned designer, Pininfarina and was known as the Habit articulated buses, on a large scale in its fleet, in contrast to the double-deckers used by SBS.

In 1999, SBS Transit was awarded both bus and train services in the entire north-east corridor with the North East line, Sengkang LRT and Punggol LRT by the Land Transport Authority, both based in Sengkang. Eight bus routes affected in the bus tender of Sengkang and Punggol were transferred to SBS Transit. In return, TIBS was awarded to operate 17 routes in the north-west corridor towns of Choa Chu Kang and Bukit Batok, where the handover was done in stages together with the opening of Bukit Panjang LRT. Services 61, 106 and 173 were the last services to be handed over mainly due to extra time involved.

In February 2001, TIBS joined with RATP Group in an unsuccessful bid to operate the Marina MRT line (now known as Circle line).

SMRT Buses (2004–present)
In 1999, TIBS and SMRT engaged in merger talks which failed. In July 2001, SMRT launched a takeover bid for TIBS that was accepted. The transaction was completed in December 2001, with TIBS being operated as a wholly owned subsidiary. As part of a corporate rebranding programme, TIBS was rebranded as SMRT Buses in May 2004.

In 2008, SMRT's first new bus after rebranding, the Mercedes-Benz OC500LE, entered service. It is its first wheelchair-accessible bus & first in Southeast Asia to meet Euro V emission standard.

On 26 November 2012, 170 bus drivers (all of whom were foreign nationals from China), refused to leave their living quarters for work. This reduced bus services to 90% of normal levels. The Ministry of Manpower considered it an illegal strike since the group failed to give a 14 days notice prior to disrupting an essential public service, as is required by the local laws. As a result, five of the strikers were jailed for instigating the strike, and another 29 were deported.

On 26 December 2012, SMRT relocated Bukit Panjang Interchange to Bukit Panjang Temporary Bus Park.

On 13 March 2016, SMRT relocated Woodlands Regional Interchange to Woodlands Temporary Interchange. On 29 May, SMRT handed over management of Bukit Batok Interchange and Bukit Batok services under Bulim package to Tower Transit Singapore.

On 4 September 2017, SMRT opened its first integrated transport hub, Bukit Panjang.

On 18 and 25 March 2018, SMRT handed over some Yishun services under Seletar package to SBS Transit. On 16 December, SMRT relocated Choa Chu Kang Interchange.

On 8 September 2019, SMRT opened its second integrated transport hub, Yishun. But the anchor operator was handed over to Tower Transit Singapore for the operations of the Sembawang-Yishun Bus Package on 5 September 2021.

In November 2020, SMRT laid up its last non-wheelchair accessible bus, the Mercedes-Benz O405G Hispano Habit. 1 unit is currently preserved at Woodlands depot.

On 23 January 2021, SMRT relocated Bukit Panjang Temporary Bus Park to Gali Batu Terminal. On 13 June, SMRT opened its third and also largest integrated transport hub in Singapore, Woodlands. From 5 September to 3 October, SMRT handed over management of Yishun Integrated Transport Hub & Sembawang Interchange and Yishun, Woodlands & Sembawang / Yio Chu Kang services under Sembawang-Yishun package to Tower Transit Singapore in 3 separate tranches.

In February 2022, SMRT closed its Ang Mo Kio Depot. On 30 June, SMRT withdrew its special services. They are NightRider (NR1, NR2, NR3, NR5, NR6 & NR8), Resorts World (188R & 963R) and Zoo (926). These services were suspended since 8 April 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Singapore.

On 18 August 2023, the Land Transport Authority announced that SMRT had won the bid for the Jurong West Bus Package, which is previously operated by SBS Transit. SMRT will take over these bus services from September 2024 onwards for at least 5 years.

Routes
SMRT Buses operates services originating from Woodlands, Bukit Panjang, Bukit Batok and Choa Chu Kang. It also operates out of its dominated areas with 1 service originating from Sengkang. Since 1999, SMRT has transferred bus services to other operators such as SBS Transit and Tower Transit Singapore; these include Punggol, Jalan Kayu, Yishun, Bukit Batok (the exception is 61 and 991) and Sembawang. This was also the first time night services (later withdrawn) and the minibus service 825 were transferred together under the BCM Package.

In addition, SMRT Corporation has a minibus subsidiary Bus-Plus Services (now trading as Strides) which provides some premium, free shuttle, chartered, and peak-hour peak period bus services throughout Singapore.

Fleet
As of 2017, SMRT Buses operates more than 1,450 buses. It was the only operator of articulated buses in Singapore until 2018, when the Seletar Package transitioned to the Tendered Contract (TC) and introduced double-decker buses in 2014. It was the first operator to introduce electronic destination signage (EDS) on its buses since 1990, which is now standard equipment on all new buses introduced to Singapore. Some of these recently acquired buses are used for Bus Service Enhancement Programme (BSEP) since 2012.

Historical
In the 1980s, TIBS operated buses that were mostly of Japanese build such as Hino (such as the initial RK176 and the later HT238K) and Nissan Diesel (mostly the U31 series)

In 1990, TIBS purchased its first European-built bus, the DAF SB220. Subsequent bus purchases during the 1990s included the Mercedes-Benz O405, the Scania L113CRL, Dennis Lance and Hino HS3KRKK.

In 1996, TIBS purchased Singapore's first articulated bus, a Mercedes-Benz O405G which was specially airflown from Spain using a Spain Airlines cargo plane. The success of this bus saw TIBS purchase another 314 of such buses from 1996 to 2004.

Syzygium cumini

Syzygium cumini, commonly known as Malabar plum, Java plum, black plum, jamun, jaman, jambul, or jambolan, is an evergreen tropical tree in the flowering plant family Myrtaceae, and favored for its fruit, timber, and ornamental value. It is native to the Indian subcontinent and Southeast Asia, including Myanmar, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and the Andaman Islands. It can reach heights of up to 30 m and can live more than 100 years. A rapidly growing plant, it is considered an invasive species in many world regions.

Syzygium cumini has been introduced to areas including islands of the Pacific and Indian Oceans, Australia, Hong Kong and Singapore.

The tree was introduced to Florida and is commonly grown in tropical and subtropical regions worldwide. Its fruits are eaten by various native birds and small mammals, such as jackals, civets, and fruit bats.

Description
As a rapidly growing species, it can reach heights of up to 30 m and can live more than 100 years. Its dense foliage provides shade and is grown just for its ornamental value. At the base of the tree, the bark is rough and dark grey, becoming lighter grey and smoother higher up. The wood is water resistant after being kiln-dried. Because of this, it is used in railway sleepers and to install motors in wells. It is sometimes used to make cheap furniture and village dwellings, though it is relatively hard for carpentry.

The aromatic leaves are pinkish when young, changing to a leathery, glossy dark green with a yellow midrib as they mature. The leaves are used as food for livestock, as they have good nutritional value.

Syzygium cumini trees start flowering from March to April. The flowers are fragrant and small, about 5 mm in diameter. The fruits develop by May or June and resemble large berries; the fruit of Syzygium species is described as "drupaceous". The fruit is oblong, ovoid. Unripe fruit looks green. As it matures, its color changes to pink, then to shining crimson red and finally to black color. A variant of the tree produces white-coloured fruit. The fruit has a combination of sweet, mildly sour, and astringent flavour and tends to colour the tongue purple.

Distribution
Syzygium cumini is native to the Indian subcontinent (the Andaman Islands, Bangladesh, Nepal, India, the Eastern Himalayas, Pakistan, Assam state, the Laccadive Islands and Sri Lanka); China (Hainan province, South-Central and Southeast China); Indonesia (Java, the Maluku Islands, Sulawesi); Southeast Asia (Cambodia, Laos, Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam and Myanmar); Australia (Queensland).

Invasive species
This species is considered invasive in Florida, South Africa, parts of the Caribbean, several islands of Oceania, and Hawaii.

Culinary uses
Jambolan fruits have a sweet or slightly acidic flavor, are eaten raw, and may be made into sauces or jam. Fruits may be made into juice, jelly, sorbet, syrup (e.g., kala khatta), or fruit salad.

Nutrition
Raw fruit is 83% water, 16% carbohydrates, 1% protein, and contains negligible fat. In a 100 gram reference amount, the raw fruit provides 60 calories, a moderate content of vitamin C, and no other micronutrients in appreciable amounts (table).

History
The 1889 book The Useful Native Plants of Australia records that the plant was referred to as "durobbi" by Indigenous Australians, and that "The fruit is much eaten by the natives of India; in appearance it resembles a damson, has a harsh but sweetish flavour, somewhat astringent and acid. It is eaten by birds and is a favourite food of the flying fox (Brandis)." The fruit has been used in traditional medicine.

Cultural and religious significance in India
In the Majjhima Nikāya, three parallel texts (MN 36, MN 85 and MN 100) claim that the Buddha remembered an experience of sitting in the cool shade of a jambu tree when he was a child. While his father was working, he entered into a meditative state which he later understood to be the first stage of Jhāna meditation. The texts claim that this was a formative experience, which later encouraged him to explore and practise Jhāna meditation, and that this then led to his Awakening. The Pāli word jambu is understood by Pāli dictionaries to refer to the Syzygium cumini which they often translate as the Rose-apple tree.

Krishna was said to have four symbols of the jambu fruit on his right foot as mentioned in the Srimad Bhagavatam commentary (verse 10.30.25), "Sri Rupa Chintamani" and "Ananda Candrika" by Srila Visvanatha Chakravarti Thakura.

In Maharashtra, Syzygium cumini leaves are used in marriage pandal decorations. A song from the 1977 film Jait Re Jait mentions the fruit in the song "Jambhul Piklya Zaadakhali".

Besides the fruits, wood from tree (as it is called in the region's language, Telugu) is used in Andhra Pradesh to make bullock cart wheels and other agricultural equipment. The timber of is used to construct doors and windows.

Legend in Tamil Nadu speaks of Avvaiyar (also Auvaiyar or Auvayar) of the Sangam period and the jamun fruit, called in Tamil. Avvaiyar, believing to have achieved everything that is to be achieved, is said to have been pondering over her retirement from Tamil literary work while resting under tree. There she was met with and was wittily jousted by a disguised Murugan, regarded as one of the guardian deities of Tamil language, who later revealed himself and made her realize that there is still a lot more to be done and learnt.

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/2005 New England Patriots Schedule

 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 - no consensus to delete, consensus does seem to exists that it should be merged or renamed. - SimonP 22:34, Jun 13, 2005 (UTC)

2005 New England Patriots Schedule
I know that Wikipedia is not a general knowledge base. Therefore, I fail to see why we need to devote an entire article to the New England Patriots's 2005 16-game regular season schedule. Zzyzx11 (Talk) 08:18, 28 May 2005 (UTC) Zzyzx11 (Talk) 04:38, 30 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep, Wikipedia is not paper so the concept of "an entire article" does not apply. Kappa 08:32, 28 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment. So I guess what is bugging me is does this article mean we should have similar separate articles for each of the other 31 National Football League teams' regular season schedules? What about separate articles for each of the Major League Baseball teams' regular season schedules? NBA? Canadian Football League? Australian Football League? FA Premier League? A separate article for every schedule for each team in every other professional sports league around the world? Where will it end? Zzyzx11 (Talk) 09:08, 28 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Zzyzx11, Please skim through 2005 Boston Red Sox Season for an answer to that question. Obviously sports Wikipedians aren't going to write bad articles! --McDogm 21:30, 29 May 2005 (UTC)
 * I would agree that information on how each sports league determines its regular season schedule is encyclopedic. What I oppose is a separate article for every single team's schedule for every single year. Zzyzx11 (Talk) 21:54, 29 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Why do you oppose that? --McDogm 22:06, 29 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a sports news site. Also, you seem to be adding more sports analysis, editorials, and opinions rather than timeless NPOV material.Zzyzx11 (Talk) 04:38, 30 May 2005 (UTC)
 * 2005 New England Patriots Schedule and 2005 Boston Red Sox Season aren't really sports news. They are more like fixtures.  I would like you to expand on your criticisms.  Try to construct your own sports analysis mini-page, based on a sports team you know something about.  Use Bill James as a 'template' for the work.  The reason that I make this request is that I would seriously like to know how the two pages mentioned above in this comment trend so dangerously close to opinion or editorialism.  And, I would like to see the voters here actually studying sports as they create their opinions of these two sports pages.  It would be important for that to happen.  As a note, if all 5 major US leagues (NFL, NBA, MLB, MLS and NHL each have on average 30 teams apiece, and each team generates up to 5 sports analysis pages, let's say, then there would be at least 750 new pages of sabermetrics level sports pages on the Wikipedia.  This should take up to 10 years to occur.  I completely fail to see how this could hurt the Wikipedia.  Please tell me how this could hurt the Wikipedia.  I would like to more completely work out this argument but I have to get back to work.  Thanks for reading.  --McDogm 15:44, 30 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete - I was thinking of merging, but than we'd have to accept full schedules and results for every sports team as well as long lists of past games.--Sophitus 10:28, May 28, 2005 (UTC)
 * No, Sophitus, that wouldn't make sense from a sports Wikipedian's point of view. The NFL is very easy to set up as it always has only 16 games in 17 weeks.  I would be appalled myself to see an 82 game NBA schedule or NHL schedule.  However, on 2005 Boston Red Sox Season an obvious solution is reached: that of simply listing each opposing team with the number of games to be played that season.  An aggregate won-loss record can be jotted down on each of the 20 or so lines.  And again, NFL is very easy to deal with as far as writing this type of result as there are only 16 entries for each of the 32 teams and either 1, 2, 3 or 4 playoff scores to record for each of the 12 playoff teams.--McDogm 21:30, 29 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Sets a thoroughly ugly principle. Harro5 11:27, May 28, 2005 (UTC)
 * I don't understand. Please elaborate. --McDogm 21:30, 29 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Can't really see that game schedules which change from year to year need to be in the encyclopedia. Besides, anybody interested in it would just go to the schedule on the NEP's website. Sjakkalle 12:16, 28 May 2005 (UTC)
 * My belief is that sports Wikipedians would rather get simple information from the Wikipedia. --McDogm 21:30, 29 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Move/Redirect to a more reasonable detail-level article at 2005 New England Patriots Season -- this could be a substantial article in time, and the current Pats articles is getting big. Christopher Parham (talk) 15:45, 2005 May 28 (UTC)
 * I agree. It will be moved to 2005 New England Patriots Season if not deleted, as a preseason section, which will be followed by a short analytical precis of the 2005 season itself next January or February. --McDogm 21:30, 29 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete Not encyclopediac. BTW, Booo Patriots. :-P --Chill Pill Bill 20:50, 28 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Please explain. --McDogm 21:30, 29 May 2005 (UTC)
 * I just agree with nominator's reason for deleting this article because "Wikipedia is not a general knowledge base." I don't mind the NFL Draft sub articles because only one new article occurs annually while if we keep on posting major sports teams' game schedules it is either 30+ new articles annually which is way too much. --Chill Pill Bill 21:54, 29 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Wikipedia has 500,000 articles. How are 32, 32x2 or 32x3 sports analysis articles harmful? --McDogm 22:06, 29 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep This is the sort of thing we need to get the Superconducting Supercollider back on track.--McDogm 21:16, 28 May 2005 (UTC)
 * See McDogm comment below Comment The article has now doubled in size.... for an explanation of this vote. Tx.--McDogm 21:45, 29 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, not encyclopedic, at best Wikisource, but even they would probably not want it. Do we want to keep a record of every team in every sport's schedule for every year?  There are 162 games in Major League Baseball, and 30 teams at present.  RickK 21:39, May 28, 2005 (UTC)
 * Wow, my delete vote is even more extreme now that the author has added all of that POV original research! RickK 05:38, May 29, 2005 (UTC)
 * Umm, it isn't really original; it is common knowledge. The POV could be better understood through Bill James.  It is strictly neutral, sportswise, with a mild sports-like feeling.  In this it resembles Deep Blue or the supercomputer competition covered in supercomputer.--McDogm 21:13, 29 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment The article has now doubled in size. The talk section is also begun.  In any event the schedule will be available at User:McDogm/Pats Schedule.  In passing, the investment community spends a lot of time with sports.  It would behoove the science community to think about putting this potentially popular page on its own computer site in order to provide the basis for talking about money with people who have money to spend on the computer industry.  It would puzzle the bank people in general to see a deletion area such as this one, and to then receive criticism for being unresponsive to the needs of the scientific community.  Who do you think is voting on all this NASA stuff that keeps getting stalled?  Politics is extremely important to getting money for quantum physics research and supercomputer research.  Not to mention the internet.  It is irritating to see science and sports fighting against each other.  I would think that a simple schedule, which would go far towards establishing normal relations between the two camps, and which could be generated by interested sports fan Wikipedians at their leisure as the seasons unwind and repeat down through the years, would be a perfect addition to the body of knowledge here.  In light of this present deletion difficulty, as a general trend indicator, it is easy to understand how difficult it is to obtain and give funding for important scientific research.  Try instead to support a humble article like this one.  Two-way communication is essential for generating massive expenditures in any field, including original science.  It would certainly be appreciated.  Remember, it takes two to tango.  Let's try to set an example here.  How can sports guys in congress vote for science when there is so much opposition to sports?  They actually need your support in order to pass the necessary legislation!  They really are eager to fund the science programs; they just can't receive abuse for doing so!  Try not to make it too difficult.  Its just common sense. Thanks for reading.      --McDogm 22:34, 28 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. A schedule is simply source material. Any expansion beyond the dates, times, and opponents is at best speculation and editorializing. As the season progresses, the relevant high points can be added to the main article on New England Patriots. If there is enough information to warrant its own article, then it can be spun off of the main article at that time. Like many of the votes above, I don't see the point of having a single sports team's schedule for a single year in an encyclopedia. ESkog 23:08, 28 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete or Merge. I haven't seen any articles for the other 31 teams' schedules, or even an article for key games over the entire season.  The only thing the main NFL article says about the regular season is a given team's opponent makeup.  I think one article on the 2005-6 season highlighting key/good/interesting gameswould be enough.  Megarockman 18:37, 28 May 2005 (CDT)
 * Wouldn't that be as untenable as merging all anime articles into anime?--McDogm 21:30, 29 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment The problem is that the schedule is ready to be merged to 2005 New England Patriots Season, as suggested above, as part of the preseason section, but the rules of deletion preclude any mergers or move of the article until the matter is resolved. On a seperate tack, 2005 Boston Red Sox Season is now more or less created, in the same vein as the future 2005 New England Patiots Season presentation.  If one is concerned with 164-game lists, worry no more; the article is concise and interesting.  I hope anyone concerned with this obvious worry would take a look should they have time.  Tx. And as a point of interest, sports are such a huge part of our society, like the church, the military, art and science, that it is a bit odd to hear of it being spoken of as non-encyclopedic or even non-Wikipedic.  I mean, it couldn't be more obvious.  I think I understand some concerns, though.  Although I am sure that there is no problem with sports articles that I write, I am sure that there is some small possibility of other teams' Wikifans not writing conscientious articles, to which I reply that any fan of the team or teams in question would simply have the authority by dint of love of the subject to create a better page.  It is as though a free market force would take over bad sports pages, with incredibly proud and loyal fans replacing good with bad, in the case of un-Wikipedlian sports pages.  Try to think along the lines of The Bad News Bears, Quiddich, George Plympton and Don DeLillo's End Zone.  I could cite film; during the battle scene with the I-Fighters in the first Star Wars movie, Chewbacca, Luke Skywalker and Harrison Ford obviously has the type of hand-eye coordination associated with participation in sports.  Another point I could make is that I have seen pages on this site so unbelievably obscure in nature that it belies any attempt to speak of sports as being unworthy of mention.  I mean, really!  I would be prepared to argue the case of this page in arbitration on all these grounds should it come down to it.  I really think sports are good for society, and will be with us until the sun turns into a red giant, and hopefully beyond, if science and science fiction have anything to do with it.  And I don't think Wikipedia should be left out of it.  Thanks again for reading.   --McDogm 01:33, 29 May 2005 (UTC)
 * McDogm, I don't think that most of the Delete voters are implying that sports in general don't have a place in Wikipedia. The questions, in my mind at least, are as follows: (1) Does/should a list of team schedules through history fit into the rest of Wikipedia's sports coverage? (2) If such an article can be expanded beyond a simple list, is there any way to meaningfully expand it without suffering from extensive NPOV (neutral point of view) problems? ESkog 06:54, 29 May 2005 (UTC)
 * ESkog, I think that the obvious pro-Sox and pro-Pats nature of those two schedule/analysis articles really reflect the very mild sports sentiment that one could expect from sports, as opposed to food or geography, to give examples. I think it is actually quite comparable to the pro-computer chess feeling one gets from Deep Blue and computer chess in its nature.  I have spent time with the Bill James Baseball abstract.  James invented sabermetrics, the term for the science of baseball analysis, and of detailed math analysis of sports in general.  It is a very sober yet enjoyable science that takes fan feeling as an obviously inherent part of its written product.  What I am getting at here is that these two sports articles, from a sports point of view, have very solid NPOV.  I again refer to big science articles, which use the reader's and writer's enthusiasm for science to communicate the facts involved, like in JWST and any quantum mechanics article.  The happiness of sports should come through in a sports article, much as the solemnity and toil of a saint should come through in a saint article.  And as someone who knows sports writing to some degree, each team's analysis would follow in detail with the results of the analytical writing in 2005 New England Patriots Schedule and 2005 Boston Red Sox Season, albeit with differing emphasis.  It is a commonplace of sports writing that one doesn't tear down the subject while one is writing it, but it is also a commonplace of sports writing that there is another article right around the corner that is more or less diametrically opposed to it, in a very mild sports manner, like a possible 2005 Indianapolis Colts Season or 2005 Pittsburgh Steelers Season in this case.  As different sabermetrics level articles get written about differing opposing teams, the discussion begins to resemble a university classroom in its enthusiasm and and free flow of conflicting ideas. As long as sports writers on the Wikipedia are functioning at Bill James level there isn't much risk of abuse of the Wikipedia.   Is the reference to POV and NPOV due to unfamiliarity with the world of sports?  IDK.--McDogm 19:56, 29 May 2005 (UTC)
 * ESkog Not only is there some fan feeling in any sports article, more importantly, and what I was trying to say, is that fan feeling is obviously a component of a team's success, according to sabermetrics. It almost goes without saying.  Sox fans have a certain feeling for the Sox, Yanks fans have a very different feeling toward the Yanks.  These differences are imnportant and yield easily to analysis.  Individual stars also have different 'looks'.  Roberto Clemente (Pittsburgh Pirates) is different from Kirby Puckett (Minnesota Twins) and each one has a different impact on the story arc of the team.  This is comparable to the concept of good will in accounting where Coca Cola's good will, based on the value of its appeal as a nominable asset, is different from that of Toyota or Mozilla.--McDogm 20:55, 29 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Transwiki to Wikicities where someone can set up a wiki for this stuff. — Phil Welch 01:59, 29 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Could this be accomplished after several years of development here on the Wikipedia proper? Detailed sports analysis is a rather new subject here and it needs some incubation.  I am thinking of access issues for sports fan Wikipedians. --McDogm 21:07, 29 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Detailed sports analysis is not encyclopedic and would be better suited for a sports news site. Zzyzx11 (Talk) 04:52, 30 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, not encyclopaedic, trivial sports cruft. Megan1967 04:14, 29 May 2005 (UTC)
 * May I ask the meaning of 'cruft' as used here? Tx.--McDogm 21:07, 29 May 2005 (UTC)
 * I'm hoping you wrote your vote while the article was still half written. --McDogm 03:33, 30 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge. As discussed, these "single season" articles do provide some interesting information and are not merely lists of events and dates. The information should be kept, but I think it would be better to condense them (to focus on encyclopedic rather than almanac information) and merge them into team histories. Dystopos 05:06, 29 May 2005 (UTC)
 * My opinion on team history merging is that the articles in question are interesting per se and merging them into one seems to me to be like merging different subatomic particles articles like meson, photon, quark and spin into one subatomic particles article. --McDogm 21:07, 29 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete For reasons pointed out in Zzyzx11's comment. Article also has POV issues as noted by Eskog. --Xcali 01:24, 29 May 2005 (UTC)

 * Comment Sorry, Xcali, your vote got crunched up because your vote and my second big comment got saved at the same time. I was planning to leave you a note.    Sorry.McDogm
 * Delete agree with Zzyzx11. JamesBurns 11:29, 30 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment I have an idea that may help here. My two pages seem to be pretty good, prima facie.  Yet I am certainly aware of how bad sports pages could result in a lot of work for VfD workers.  So let me be a VfD worker who is always available at User:McDogm in case non-sabermetrics sports pages ever appear.  Here is a useful first rule: "Any person writing about sports on the Wikipedia should be familiar with Bill James' work.  I would be glad to talk to people who don't fit this description on deletion pages such as this.  In fact, it would be my pleasure.  And, in fact, please let me know if there are any such pages extant now, beyond the normal one-page per team and one-page per star encyclopedia entries, that are difficult to deal with and I will get around to it.  Thanks. --McDogm 16:32, 30 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment Here is a second rule or axiom: If any sports page is not sabermetrically competetive then it is not Wikipedia material. That is, if one isn't trying to get really good at sabermetrics, then what is one doing here writing? --McDogm 16:32, 30 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment I suppose this list of axioma could go on and on. It is a lot of work to write a competetive sabermetrics page.  Therefore, the list of pages that could be generated is extremely self-limited. --McDogm 16:32, 30 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete unencyclopedic - and most of it is speculation and opinion, suitable for a sports column but not an encyclopedia. CDC   (talk)  01:26, 31 May 2005 (UTC)
 * How can such a well known thing be unencyclopedic?--McDogm 20:13, 31 May 2005 (UTC)
 * comment. Encyclopedic is not a synonym for famous. Please read What Wikipedia is not and pay special attention to the headings "Wikipedia is not a soapbox" and "Wikipedia is not a crystal ball." See also No original research and Verifiability for additional guidelines. I think some of the information in this article is useful, but "the Patriots are expected to face a tough match-up in week 3" is not material for a reference work. Dystopos 20:53, 31 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Please explain why "the Patriots are expected to face a tough match-up in week 3" is not material for a reference work. It is kind of like "The Americans faced a tough battle in the Ardennes" or "Hannibal faced a tough challenge crossing the Alps."  Also, please quote that entire line to not take it out of context.  It would facilitate discussion.  Tx. --McDogm 17:25, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC) Also, I have been checking the Wikipedia: references you gave in your comment.  I will have to ask, do you have any familiarity with sports in general?  The reason I ask such a question is that the material in the 2005 Pats Schedule article is just obvious.  It is something that every football fan already knows.  It is difficult to verify, and it is difficult not to know this, if one had been more or less following any sports page in America.  It is just very well expressed here, in a consciously sabermetrics level of intellectual discourse.  There is nothing in the article that is not as obvious as knowing whether a light is on or off, to someone who has spent some time with the material, and who is willing to spend a lot of time bringing it to the Wikipedia, again in a standardized sabermetrics level of writing.  --McDogm 17:39, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * The phrase "is expected to" indicates speculation. Speculation is inherently unverifiable. If, in fact, the Patriots barely squeeze out a victory in week 3, then the information may be encyclopedic after the fact. If so many people think that week 3 will be a tough matchup that it is selected as the "Game of the Week" by several media outlets, then that information may be encyclopedid. The content of a prediction is not encyclopedic or verifiable. The means by which predictions are made could be, the effect of a prediction could be, and the actual outcome of the event could be. -- As for the argument that sports fans consider these speculations to be obvious, that does not argue for their inclusion. There is no article on the predicted color of the sky in 2006 for the same reason. To answer your question I do keep up with sports and I am, in fact, familiar with Bill James' work on baseball statistics. The sabermetric content of the notes I deleted from the article in question is not the point of objection. Dystopos 20:05, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Then what is? --McDogm 22:52, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * The two games that the Patriots organization is concerned with are the Pittsburgh game and the Indianapolis game. The San Diego Chargers game is a third important hurdle for the team. These three games will be in the books by Week 9, halfway through the season. (Paragraph)  Going into the season a second level of difficulty would include Atlanta, Denver and the New York Jets. Week 9 again is a milestone as 5 out of 7 of these difficult games will be complete by then. The Jets play on Week 13 and Week 16; the second game will be played on Christmas Day, December 25, 2005, very late in the season.  This is the very material in question, italicized.  You should try to think about criticizing this material more effectively.  I am certainly at a loss at this point to continue this dialogue.  I am not sure if this has turned into a excercise in foo fighting or not.  I don't want to waste your time if it has.  What is the procedure for withdrawing a motion for deletion?  I am not trying to be nasty; I ask because the conversation is losing coherency and I have a lot of other stuff to do.  Also, one's public statements should reflect well on one.  Most of the comments here, all of which have been answered point by point, do not reach that standard.  It is like sausage being made; its just ugly.  What NFL team do you like, anyway?  Please advise.  I might have to give up on this deletion process as it is getting too weird.  That certainly isn't good. --172.152.77.167 23:08, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)      McDogm
 * I feel the same way. From my perspective I see everything as the exact opposite of your above synopsis. The material is not objectionable on a point-by-point basis. The class of material (speculation about future events) is inherently non-encyclopedic. The rest of the article is still up for VfD. I removed only the sections which were clearly against WP policies. I am not convinced that the remainder, though not so clearly objectionable, should remain as a separate article. Therefore I voted to merge it with a general account of the team history. I will understand if you do not wish to continue this conversation. I would be a bit relieved myself if it ended here. Perhaps it should be moved to a discussion page instead of Vfd. I am not sure the point of asking which teams I like. (I like the Saints, Titans, and Packers. I cheered for the Patriots in the Superbowl.) Dystopos 02:55, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Despite being against deletion, I agree that such material requires attribution for each of the facts presented, and in its current form is not acceptable. It seems to me this is just based on the records of the opponents from last season, and if this is so, that ought to be made clear. Again, though, the schedule and (AFTER the fact) a discussion of events in the season seems like legitimate material, and given the number of seasons the team has played and will play, putting all that into a single Pats article seems like too much. Having individual articles on each season seems like a good solution. Christopher Parham (talk) 17:43, 2005 Jun 2 (UTC)
 * Delete. As noted earlier, Wikipedia is not a general knowledge base. Furthermore, I'm sure this is information that is very, very easily available elsewhere. I realize that sports fans are likely to be interested in this stuff, but that doesn't mean that Wikipedia is a good place for it -- there are other (and, I would say, better and more obvious) sources for finding game schedules. Bottom line is, I don't think this is encyclopedic information. Wikipedia is not a sports database dedicated to the minutiae of future events. I mean, we might as well start listing the air dates of upcoming episodes of ongoing TV series... -- Captain Disdain 23:47, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * I don't think there is any minutiae in the document up for deletion. Please explain.  --McDogm 16:33, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * "Minutiae", as in "small or trivial detail" -- well, it may not the best choice of words, really, but I do think that in the grand scale of things, it's fitting enough. I don't think this is the kind of information that belongs in an encyclopedia. Like I said, I realize that sports fans are likely to be interested in this stuff and that it's certainly not irrelevant information in itself, but that doesn't mean that it's relevant to Wikipedia. And I'm certainly not opposed to sports in Wikipedia, but it's one thing to write articles about sports and another to create pages for upcoming events. Bottom line: listing the dates and various details of future sports events is not encyclopedic information, and Wikipedia is not a scheduling tool or a repository of general knowledge. -- Captain Disdain 00:56, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge into New Englands Patriots. I don't believe their is anything wrong with wikipedia having the next years schedule but it doesn't need its own article. Falphin 21:35, 5 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. News report, so a move to Wikinews may make sense.--Nabla 00:28, 2005 Jun 8 (UTC)
 * Merge per Falphin. This sets a terrible precedent that would allow large schedules from, say, hockey or baseball to be posted. I don't really think this is encyclopedic, but it might be good to post the upcoming schedule (perhaps with updated results as the season goes on) on each team's page, as this is good, current information that warrants its own subsection (at most). -Tadanisakari 07:51, Jun 10, 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep the content. We now have articles on each British cricket match so one on an entire NFL season is not out of place. Should be merged/renamed into a page on the season, however. - SimonP 22:36, Jun 13, 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.

1978–79 Bundesliga

The 1978–79 Bundesliga was the 16th season of the Bundesliga, West Germany's premier football league. It began on 11 August 1978 and ended on 9 June 1979. 1. FC Köln were the defending champions.

Competition modus
Every team played two games against each other team, one at home and one away. Teams received two points for a win and one point for a draw. If two or more teams were tied on points, places were determined by goal difference and, if still tied, by goals scored. The team with the most points were crowned champions while the three teams with the fewest points were relegated to their respective 2. Bundesliga divisions.

Team changes to 1978–79
TSV 1860 Munich, 1. FC Saarbrücken and FC St. Pauli were relegated to the 2. Bundesliga after finishing in the last three places during 1977–78. They were replaced by Arminia Bielefeld, winners of the 2. Bundesliga Northern Division, SV Darmstadt 98, winners of the Southern Division and 1. FC Nürnberg, who won a two-legged promotion play-off against Rot-Weiss Essen.

Brzezinka

Brzezinka (, German: Birkenau) is a village in southern Poland, about 3 km from Oświęcim, in the district of Gmina Oświęcim, Oświęcim County, Lesser Poland Voivodeship.

General information
The village is near the confluence of the rivers Vistula and Soła, at the very center of the Vistula Valley, 240 meters above sea level. By the time of the construction of the first railroad station in 1856 the station was on Brzezinka's territory, but later it was included within the town limits of nearby Oświęcim.

Two major factories are found there: Fabryka Maszyn Górniczych "Omag", which in the 1930s as Spółka Akcyjna Zjednoczenia Fabryk Maszyn i Samochodów "Oświęcim" (Oświęcim United Machinery and Automobile Manufacturing Inc.) produced the "Oświęcim-Praga" car which won a Monte Carlo Rally; and the Polinova Company (popularly known as Papownia).

History
The name of the village stems from birch trees (Polish: brzoza). It was first mentioned in 1385. From 1440 to 1483 Brzezinka was owned by Jan Brzeziński.

Politically the village belonged then to the Duchy of Oświęcim, formed in 1315 in the process of feudal fragmentation of Poland and was ruled by a local branch of Piast dynasty. In 1327 the duchy became a fee of the Kingdom of Bohemia. In 1457 Jan IV of Oświęcim agreed to sell the duchy to the Polish Crown, and in the accompanying document issued on 21 February the village was mentioned as Brzesinka. The territory of the Duchy of Oświęcim was eventually directly incorporated into Poland in 1564 and formed the Silesian County in the Kraków Voivodeship in the Lesser Poland Province. Upon the First Partition of Poland in 1772 it was annexed by Austria, and made part of its newly formed Kingdom of Galicia. In the late 19th century, it had a population of 1,025. After World War I and the fall of Austria-Hungary it became again part of Poland, as the nation regained independence.

Following the joint German-Soviet invasion of Poland, which started World War II in September 1939, the village was occupied and annexed by Nazi Germany. After this annexation the village was chosen by the Germans as the site of their Auschwitz-Birkenau (Auschwitz II) death camp, the centerpiece of the Final Solution to the Jewish Question, whose remains exist along with Auschwitz I as state museums to commemorate the victims of Nazism and the Holocaust. In connection with the construction of the camp, in 1941, the occupiers expelled the entire Polish population of the village, which was initially deported to the nearby Pszczyna County, and afterwards either enslaved as forced labour or deported to the General Government in the more eastern part of German-occupied Poland. Additionally, in 1943, the Germans established a subcamp of the Auschwitz concentration camp in the village, in which they enslaved hundreds of men (initially mostly Poles and Russians, and later mostly Jews) as slave labour. After the war, the village was restored to Poland.

Get a Clue

Get a Clue is a 2002 American mystery comedy film released as a Disney Channel Original Movie. It stars Lindsay Lohan as Lexy Gold, a teenage high school student who investigates a mystery after one of her teachers goes missing. The film premiered on the Disney Channel on June 28, 2002. It was directed by Maggie Greenwald and was written by Alana Sanko.

Plot
Lexy Gold (Lindsay Lohan) lives amongst the wealthy and elite of Manhattan, New York. Clad in Prada, she prides herself on her ability to get the scoop and serve it up in her school newspaper's advice column. She competes for status on the newspaper with middle-class Jack Downey (Bug Hall), the editor. When an article and photograph Lexy has taken of her teacher, Mr. Orlando Walker (Ian Gomez), is published in the city's daily paper, he goes missing and his car is found in the East River. With help from Lexy's best friend Jen Hervey (Brenda Song) and one of her schoolmates Gabe (Ali Mukaddam), Lexy and Jack set out to solve the mystery behind the disappearance.

Their teacher, Miss Gertrude Dawson (Amanda Plummer), becomes involved as she and Mr. Walker were romantically involved. Jack receives a message from Mr. Walker about a scholarship. Lexy and Jack search his old apartment, where they run into Detective Charles Meany (Charles Shaughnessy), who is searching for Mr. Walker. Jen and Gabe watch Miss Dawson at Gabe's house with a video camera to keep an eye on her. Lexy and Jack later meet Mr. Walker's mother, Mrs. Petrossian (Sylvia Lennick), at her house. They discover that Mr. Walker changed his identity after being accused of stealing $10,000,000. Mr. Walker later receives a letter from the real person who stole the money, framing Mr. Walker.

The group and Mr. Walker meet at a hotel to pretend to receive the money. Miss Dawson shows up at the hotel and is taken hostage by the real thief. Lexy and Jack search the halls for the man, who is revealed to be Detective Meany, whose real name is Falco Grandville, Mr. Walker's boss when he worked at a bank in Arizona, and the man who had framed Mr. Walker for the money theft. The team catches up with him and he is later arrested. It is later revealed that Mr. Walker's mother found a brooch at Falco's office by chance and decided to keep it; Falco has purchased the expensive canary diamond brooch to hide the stolen $10 million, and blamed Walker for its loss. After Mr. Walker is pronounced a free man at last, he later asks Miss Dawson to marry him. At the end, it shows the wedding with Jack, Lexy, Jen, and Gabe. Jack and Lexy share a moment between themselves before the four teens walk down the street talking about going bowling.

Production
Production began in May 2001. Get a Clue was written by Alana Sanko; the script was still unfinished by the time filming had begun. Maggie Greenwald was confirmed to direct and Lindsay Lohan was cast as Lexy Gold, ending her three-movie deal with The Walt Disney Company. The film was primarily filmed in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, with some of the exterior scenes filmed on location in Manhattan, New York. Millington Prep, the school Lexy and her friends attend, was filmed at Bishop Strachan School in Toronto.

The film was originally to be released in January 2002 as the Disney Channel Movie of the Month. A well-concealed reshoot took place in late 2001 to film a different ending concluding that the villain in the film was Meany. In the original ending, the villain turned out to be Mrs. Stern, a teacher at Lexy's school who had known Mr. Walker while he was living in Arizona. This ending was shown on the DVD (though the viewer has the option to watch either ending when the movie reaches 61 minutes, with the Mrs. Stern ending shown in a different aspect ratio than the rest of the movie). The film was heavily promoted by and frequently re-aired on Disney Channel during its initial summer. A song by the Canadian band Prozzak, "Get a Clue", appeared in the film, and the music video was regularly shown on the channel at the time of its release. The name of the band was changed to "Simon and Milo", the characters depicted in the music video so their band name would not be associated with drugs.

This is harder than it used to be, due to the sheer volume on AFD; the absurdity of some of the nominations, nominated articles, and discussions; and my lack of interest in so many of the listed articles. I just don't review AFD much anymore. Still, here are a few articles that were nominated because they were bad articles, not bad subjects, and I cleaned them up to demonstrate the fact.

Kaito Kuroba

Kaito Kuroba (黒羽 快斗), the true identity of the gentleman thief "Kaito Kid" (怪盗キッド), is a fictional character and the main protagonist of the Magic Kaito manga series created by Gosho Aoyama. His father Toichi Kuroba was the original Kaito Kid before being killed by an unknown organization, while his mother was a former phantom thief known as the Phantom Lady. Kaito Kuroba then takes on the role of Kid after learning the organization is after a gemstone called Pandora and decides to find and destroy it.

Kaito Kuroba has also made significant appearances in Aoyama's Case Closed series. His strong resemblance to the protagonist of this series, Shinichi Kudo, allows Kaito to impersonate him without a mask. He is also voiced by the same voice actors as Shinichi. When Case Closed was localized into English, Viz Media chose the rōmaji Kaito Kid for the manga, while in the anime, the English dub produced by Funimation Entertainment refer to him as Phantom Thief Kid, while the dubs produced by Discotek Media and Macias Group refer to him as Kid the Phantom Thief. Shogakukan Asia also chose to use Kaito Kid.

In the Magic Kaito manga series
Kaito Kuroba is a seventeen-year-old high school student who is an adept magician due to the influence of his father, Toichi Kuroba. Eight years prior to the series, Toichi had mysteriously died and was also the last time the Kaito Kid was spotted. In the present time, Kaito discovers a secret room in his home that was set up by his father to reveal itself on that very day. Finding the Kaito Kid's gadgets and costume in the room, Kaito dons the disguise and decides to confront Kid who has recently resurfaced after his eight years of absence. Kaito discovers Kid to be Konosuke Jii, his father's butler, who ascertains Toichi was the first Kaito Kid. Jii reveals his took on the role as Kid to lure out Toichi's murderer. Upon learning that his father was murdered, Kaito continues the role of the Kaito Kid as he searches for his father's killer.

As the Kaito Kid, Kaito uses his skills of perfect disguise and the gadgets his father left him to complete his heists. The most prominent of those gadgets are his cape which transforms into a hang-glider, a gun that shoots sharp metallic playing cards, and smoke bombs. To lure out the murderers, Kaito adopts a tradition of sending a note of his intending theft to the location beforehand. After a successful heist, Kaito returns the stolen treasures. As the Kaito Kid, Kaito eventually meets the organization who killed his father. He discovers they are searching for the gemstone called Pandora (パンドラ) which grants immortality if the water it emits during Volley's Comet is drunk. Pandora is hidden in a larger gemstone and can only be seen if shone under the moonlight. Kaito decides to search for Pandora with the intention of destroying it and begins focusing his heists on large gemstones. As such, he begins the tradition of checking gemstones from his heists under the moonlight before returning them to their rightful owners.

In the Case Closed series
Kaito Kuroba, as the Kaito Kid, appears in Aoyama's manga series Case Closed as an rival and occasional ally to his rival, Conan. He is introduced as Kaito 1412, but is referred to as Kid later on. He is confronted by the protagonist of the series, Shinichi Kudo; teen detective turned child under the alias Conan Edogawa, who often foils his plans but Kid still eludes capture. Kaito also garners the attention of Jirokichi Suzuki who wants to capture Kid for fame. In the series, it is revealed that Shinichi's father Yusaku Kudo was the one who came up with the Kaito 1412 and Kaito Kid moniker. In the Case Closed film series, Kaito reveals he knows Conan is actually Shinichi. Due to Kaito's strong resemblance to Shinichi, he is able to disguise himself as Shinichi Kudo without a mask.

Kaito has made six appearances in the films. In Case Closed: The Last Wizard of the Century, he steals a fabergé egg to return to its rightful owner while helping Shinichi on his investigation for an assassin. In Case Closed: Magician of the Silver Sky, he continues his search for Pandora as Shinichi attempts to impede his heist. Kaito makes his third appearance in Case Closed: The Private Eyes' Requiem, where he indirectly helps Shinichi solve an old murder. His fourth appearance takes place in Case Closed: The Lost Ship in the Sky where Jirokichi baits him with a large gemstone on an airship as he attempts to capture him. He is also featured in Lupin the 3rd vs. Detective Conan: The Movie and Case Closed: Sunflowers of Inferno. In the latter, it's revealed that despite being a thief, Kid is a man of honor.

Reception
On a Case Closed character popularity poll, Kaito ranked as the top most popular character of the series. On an online poll by Conan Movie.jp, he placed second with 19% of the votes. John Sinnott from DVD Talk considers Kaito Kuroba as an interesting character as he was able to escape from Shinichi Kudo, the protagonist of Case Closed. Rebecca Silverman, writing for Anime News Network, has also described him as "interesting", noting that it "is a lot of fun" to see how he can defy Shinichi, and be a "foil figure" to him. SequentialTart.com's Amanda Tarbet remarks the Phantom Thief Kid to be an amusing character due to his gentlemanly manners and skills.

Rex Airlines

Rex Airlines Pty Ltd is an Australian regional airline based in Mascot, New South Wales. It operates scheduled regional and domestic services, using using both jet and turboprop aircraft.

The primary subsidiary of Regional Express Holdings, the airline is Australia's largest regional air carrier outside the Qantas group's companies and serves all 6 states across Australia.

History
The airline was established in 2002 when the Australiawide Airlines consortium (set up by former Ansett Australia employees) acquired Hazelton Airlines and Kendell Airlines, before merging the companies and starting operations as Rex in August 2002. In 2005, Australiawide Airlines was renamed Regional Express Holdings and partially floated on the Australian Securities Exchange. On 30 November 2005, Rex announced the acquisition of the Dubbo-based Air Link, another regional airline.

In October 2007, Rex expanded into Queensland when it commenced operations between Brisbane and Maryborough. This exacerbated an existing problem within the company of not having enough pilots to crew its flights (due to the expansion of larger airlines, especially Jetstar and Virgin Blue), and Rex suspended operations out of Brisbane (and from Sydney to Cooma during the summer "low season" for this route to the NSW ski fields) in November 2007. To provide a medium-term solution to the pilot shortage, Rex announced that it was establishing a cadet-pilot flight-training programme.

In November 2015, Rex announced the resumption of services to the NSW Snowy Mountains in conjunction with Snowy Mountains Airport Corporation, with the flights resuming in March 2016. In December 2015, Rex announced that it would be commencing operations in Western Australia in February the following year after being selected by the Government of Western Australia to be the operator of regulated RPT routes after a tender process. Initially operating between Perth to Albany and Esperance, in July 2018 the Western Australian operations expanded to include Carnarvon and Monkey Mia. It brought Rex's weekly flights to roughly 1,500 across 60 destinations.

Starting on 6 April 2020, Rex significantly scaled back all its regional services due to the COVID-19 pandemic, continuing to only offer Government subsidised services within Queensland and Western Australia and one flight a week between all 54 regional and remote communities within its route network. Services including Adelaide to Port Augusta, Sydney to Newcastle and Sydney to Armidale were suspended.

In June 2020, eyeing the demise of Tigerair Australia, Rex announced interest in expanding into the domestic airline market between Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane. Rex leased six Boeing 737-800s previously leased by Virgin Australia to operate the new services, with the first delivered in November 2020. The first jet operations began on 1 March 2021 on the Melbourne to Sydney route. Also in June 2020, Rex announced that it had entered into a memorandum of understanding with ATR to explore options for replacing the Saab 340 fleet with ATR 42 and ATR 72 aircraft. Following the airline's launch of jet services in March 2021, Rex replaced the announced Brisbane jet services in early April with services to Adelaide and Gold Coast, with the start of services occurring between 29 March and 1 April.

Regional Express Holdings

Regional Express Holdings Limited is the parent company of a number of airline and associated companies in Australia. It is based in Mascot, New South Wales (a suburb of Sydney) and is a public listed company on the Australian Stock Exchange. Regional Express Holdings arose from the 2001 collapse of Ansett Airlines, which was the parent company of Kendell Airlines and Hazelton Airlines. A group of Singaporean investors and a collection of Australian private investors purchased the Hazelton and Kendell businesses, which were profitable entities before they were taken over by Ansett. The investors formed Australiawide Airlines, which was officially incorporated on 12 February 2002. The assets of the two airlines were purchased by Australiawide and merged to form the airline Regional Express, known as Rex. In 2005 Australiawide offered a percentage of the owners' shares (35 million out of 115 million shares, or 30.43%) to the public in a float. At the same time an agreement was reached with the owners of Pel-Air that Australiawide would purchase Pel-Air.

As part of the public float process, Australiawide Airlines' name was changed to Regional Express Holdings. Regional Express Holdings is the owner of a number of other companies. The main asset is '''Regional Express Pty. Ltd.''' which is the company that operates the business of the airline Regional Express (Rex) and owns Rex Airlines Pty Limited. Rex Airlines Pty Limited was registered on the 6 July 2020 as part of Rex domestic expansion plans, responsible for issuing tickets on behalf of Regional Express Pty Limited. Another company is '''Air Partners Pty. Ltd.''', which is the company that owns National Jet Express and Pel-Air and Rex Flyer. The third subsidiary company is '''Rex Investment Holdings Pty. Ltd.''', which owns the Australian Aero Propeller Maintenance and Australian Airline Pilot Academies based in Wagga Wagga and Ballarat.

Destinations
Rex Airlines initially offered regional flights from various bases across Australia using turboprop aircraft, but in March 2021 began flying between its bases using jet aircraft with flights between Melbourne and Sydney. Their current domestic flights consist of destinations in Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Canberra, Gold Coast, Adelaide and Hobart.

Rex Airlines operates to the following destinations :

Current fleet
, Rex Airlines operates the following aircraft:

Former fleet
Rex Airlines has previously operated the following aircraft:
 * Fairchild Metro 23 – 7 inherited from Kendell Airlines, retired 2006.

Fleet development
Rex operates the world's largest fleet of Saab 340 aircraft. The delivery of 25 ex-American Eagle Airlines Saab 340B Plus aircraft started in mid-2007 and enabled the expansion of services and the phase-out of the airline's Saab 340As, and some older B models. The 340B Plus has a quieter and more comfortable interior.

In July 2008 the company announced that all of its 340As would be phased out; however one rejoined the fleet in July 2015 after a 7-year stint with Rex's subsidiary airline Pel-Air and remains in service as of January 2020.

The airline also previously operated some Fairchild Metro 23 aircraft seating 19 passengers, but the aircraft were later phased out.

The airline operated an all-Saab 340 fleet with three variants of the type until December of 2020, when the airline commenced jet aircraft operations following the delivery of its first Boeing 737-800.

Incidents and accidents

 * On 21 February 2016, a Regional Express Airlines Saab 340B, registered VH-ZLA, was forced to take evasive action to avoid a glider while operating from Orange Airport. The Australian Transport Safety Bureau (ATSB) found the Rex aircraft was climbing through 7,500 ft after departing Orange when the crew sighted the glider in "close proximity", and took evasive action.
 * On 17 March 2017, the right propeller sheared off a Regional Express Saab 340B, tail number VH-NRX, while operating flight ZL768 from Albury to Sydney. The pilot made a pan-pan call but was able to land the plane without incident. The ATSB after investigating found a fatigue crack in the engine's propeller mounting flange.
 * 23 March 2017, at about 0942 Eastern Daylight-saving Time, a Regional Express SAAB 340B, registered VH-RXS, departed Dubbo Airport, New South Wales to operate scheduled passenger flight ZL821 to Sydney, New South Wales. At about 0944, as the aircraft climbed through about 4,300 ft, the flight crew heard several bangs from the right engine accompanied by jolts through the aircraft. https://www.atsb.gov.au/publications/investigation_reports/2017/aair/ao-2017-034
 * On 29 August 2019, a Regional Express Saab 340B, registration VH-RXX, the crew received a right engine fire indication followed by a loud bang while they were shutting the engine down. The aircraft landed at the planned destination of Merimbula without further incident. The ATSB discovered that the indication and subsequent engine failure was caused by an internal oil fire weakening the turbine blades.
 * On 8 May 2019, Regional Express Saab 340B aircraft, registered VH-OLM, descent below minimum safe altitude, 15 km south-west of Williamtown Aerodrome (Newcastle Airport), New South Wales. The ATSB found the flight crew had misjudged the aircraft's position relative to the aerodrome while conducting a night visual approach.https://www.atsb.gov.au/publications/investigation_reports/2019/aair/ao-2019-022
 * On 20 August 2019 a Regional Express, Saab Aircraft Company 340B, registration VH-ZLX, departed Adelaide, for a regular public transport flight to Port Lincoln, South Australia. During the post flight walk around, the first officer noted that the left main outboard landing gear tyre was deflated and that a piece of the wheel was missing. Ground support personnel at Adelaide Airport subsequently located the missing section of wheel on the runway strip. An area of fatigue cracking in the wheel. It was considered likely that the fatigue crack was present at the most recent maintenance visit, however, it had not been detected. https://www.atsb.gov.au/publications/investigation_reports/2019/aair/ao-2019-047
 * 6 July 2021, a Saab 340B aircraft, registered VH-ZLJ, departed Perth Airport for a scheduled passenger flight to Albany, Western Australia. At about 1623, while climbing through an altitude of 6,000 ft, and before entering icing conditions, the crew activated the engine anti-ice and wing de-ice systems. Shortly afterwards, caution lights illuminated indicating a fault in the de-ice system. After levelling off at 7,000 ft, the crew actioned the relevant abnormal checklist, but the caution lights remained on. In response, the flight crew requested a descent to 5,000 ft to exit icing conditions and decided to return to Perth. ATC instructed the crew to make a right turn. About 20 seconds after beginning the turn, the aircraft’s aerodynamic stall warning stick shakers activated. The first officer initiated the stall recovery procedure before the captain took control as pilot flying to complete the recovery. The aircraft returned to Perth, landing at 1642. https://www.atsb.gov.au/publications/investigation_reports/2021/aair/ao-2021-027
 * 5 April 2022, a Regional Express SAAB 340B aircraft, registered VH-ZRK, was being prepared for an air transport flight from Melbourne, Victoria to King Island, Tasmania.

 * 4 November 2022, rejected take-off involving SAAB 340, VH-ZRC, at Flinders Island Airport, Tasmania. During the take-off roll, the aircraft veered to the left and the crew detected abnormal airspeed indications before rejecting the take-off, resulting in four landing gear tyres deflating. https://www.atsb.gov.au/publications/investigation_reports/2023/report/ao-2022-054
 * 21 December 2022, SAAB 340B aircraft, registered VH-RXE, that occurred about 140 km from Perth, Western Australia. During cruise, the no. 2 engine failed, and the crew returned the aircraft to Perth. https://www.atsb.gov.au/publications/investigation_reports/2023/report/ao-2022-066

Flight school
In November 2007, Regional Express Airlines and Mangalore Airport Pty Limited created a joint venture pilot academy called the Civil Aviation Training Academy, based at Mangalore Airport in Victoria. In April 2008, Regional Express Airlines fully acquired the Civil Aviation Training Academy and it was renamed to Australian Airline Pilot Academy.

On 18 February 2009, Regional Express Airlines announced that the Australian Airline Pilot Academy (AAPA) would be relocated from Mangalore Airport to Wagga Wagga Airport in partnership with the City of Wagga Wagga starting in April 2009.

Waste Control Specialist
Tagged for speedy deletion as advertising, but I don't think that's what it is (also not a criterion): "This company has stirred much controversy across the state and the country. The company has recieved much protest from enviromentalists, though it has been welcomed by the citizens in Andrews". Also there seems to be a plan to dump radioactive waste there. No vote.

Recycling bin

A recycling bin (or recycle bin) is a container used to hold recyclables before they are taken to recycling centers. Recycling bins exist in various sizes for use inside and outside of homes, offices, and large public facilities. Separate containers are often provided for paper, tin or aluminum cans, and glass or plastic bottles, with some bins allowing for commingled, mixed recycling of various materials.

Bins are sometimes in different colors so that the user can differentiate between the types of materials specified for each bin. While there is no universal standard color for recycling, the color blue is commonly used to indicate recycling in public settings. Other regions also use the color green to differentiate between types of recyclable materials. Recycling bins, cans, or wheeled carts (toters) are common elements of municipal kerbside collection programs, which frequently distribute eye-catching bins to encourage participation.

History
The idea of the waste bins is believed to have been conceived by Eugène-René Poubelle (15 April 1831- 15 July 1907), French lawyer who introduced waste containers to Paris. In 1883 “Poubelle law” was established in Paris which implemented the usage of closed containers that separated waste by type. His decree provided for the sorting of waste into three categories: compostable materials, paper and cloth, and glass, which gave way to the idea of separate receptacles according to type of waste. Recycling has become far more commonplace since the mid 20th century. Originally, the majority of households disposed of their wastes into land. In 1942, during World War II, President Franklin D. Roosevelt established the War Production Board, which had people and companies focus on prioritizing the distribution of materials to war needs. Nazi Germany also implemented recycling techniques, not motivated by nature conservation but for resource allocation for the war effort. Their recycling policy involved separating waste into three containers: general waste, metal-containing waste, and food waste. Nazi policies were met with resistance by the countries they occupied. Notably, the Dutch cross contaminated the waste to reduce its efficiency.

After World War II, people in the United States were becoming more aware of the landfill effects. In response to public concern, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) was formed by President Richard Nixon.

The United States was not the only country concerned about the effects of landfilled waste. In 1972, Dutch activists Babs Riemens-Jagerman and Miep Kuiper-Verkuyl, installed a container in Zeist to collect glass.

In 1974, Missouri, the first recycling bin designed to collect paper, “The Tree Saver”, was introduced. While beneficial in some respects, the "Tree Saver" had limitations, as it required people to transport the materials or leave them in front of their homes for pickup.

Also, in 1974, Jack McGinnes, an American expat living in Toronto who enjoyed roaming the beaches and picking up cans and bottles, founded the Five Foundation, the first curbside multi-material pickup of recycling materials serving Toronto and its suburbs. Today, the blue box recycling system, as well as similar systems are in place in hundreds of cities around the world. The modern Blue-Box recycling bin was invented by Jack McGinnes nearly one hundred years after Poubelle’s idea to sort types of waste by type. The proliferation of curbside blue-bin recycling containers coincided with the increase in municipal recycling rates which increased from just over 6% in 1960 to over 35% in 2017.

In 1980, Woodbury, New Jersey became the first municipality to mandate recycling; other cities soon followed, and the blue box curbside recycling system became a staple of late 20th and 21st century life. As of the end of 1988, there were approximately 1,050 curbside recycling programs in the United States. By the end of 1991, this number had increased by more than 250% to 3,955 programs.

Recycling on the roll
Wheels on recycling bins are a relatively new invention. First introduced by Frank Rotherham Mouldings in 1968, wheels on bins were used to move waste around a factory floor. This idea was then extrapolated to bins across England, and eventually, bins around the world, reducing the labor required to move waste products from one place to another.

Household collection
Types of recycling bins can vary depending on whether they are intended for personal use or public use.

Curbside bin
One of the most common types of residential recycling bins is the curbside recycling bin. The city or county where the residence is located usually provides a curbside recycling bin to each household. The actual type of recycling bin can vary;

common colors of residential recycling bins are green or blue in the United States. The size of the curbside recycling bin can also vary depending on the county as well, but is usually around 90-96 gallons (340-363 liters).

Alternative household bins
Other recycling bins in the household are sold privately and can take many different forms These bins vary based on the manufacturer, but are all produced with the goal of collecting recyclable waste.

Public collection
Commonly seen in public places such as parks and universities, public recycling bins can vary in shape and size. These

bins are placed in areas easily accessible to the public to help facilitate recycling. Many of these recycling bins are accompanied by a compost and waste bin to allow the public to conveniently dispose of a variety of waste. The dispersal of these bins help to contribute to the beautification of public areas by encouraging the proper disposal of waste products. Placement of these bins can be done either through private entities or different government agencies.

Safety issues
Though rare, there have been some fatal accidents involving recycling bins. Since its invention, The recycling bin has caused many controversies, including various deaths. In 1995, a twenty-six year old male in California was crushed to death in a recycling bin by a recycling ram. In 2011, a sixty-two year old Ohio woman was found wedged face first in a recycling bin. She fell off of her porch and into the recycling bin and presumably asphyxiated to death. Also in 2011, the body of a forty-four year old man was found in a recycling plant after he was crushed to death crawling into a recycling bin. More recently, in 2022, a Massachusetts woman named Barbara Novaes’s dead body was found inside a recycling bin. Although her death was determined to be accidental, her family has disputed this claim, believing her death to be a homicide.

Alternative uses of the term "recycling bin"
Although more commonly referred to as Trash, the term recycling bin is sometimes used to discard files in computer software systems.

Windows
In 1995, Microsoft released Windows 95, which introduced a "recycling bin" as a place to store discarded files which could then be restored or permanently deleted. The operarting system popularised the usage of the term "recycling bin" in software.
