Talk:Total Eclipse of the Heart

Inspiration?!
I saw the reference to Wuthering Heights as inspiration. But... what about musical inspiration?! The theme of Total Eclipse was totally nicked from the unknown American group Ford's Theater and their 1968 LP "Trilogy For The Masses". The "Theme for the masses" from this LP is EXACTLY the same as Total Eclipse. I'm surprised that no one ever sued Steinman! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cb007 (talk • contribs) 10:10, 26 January 2009 (UTC)
 * What's so annoying about the Ford's Theater music is that I think it should be included, but there's no writing on it, so if anything were added to the article, it would be original research, which unfortunately can't be added. Tricky situation! Bonnietylersave (talk) 11:15, 20 August 2014 (UTC)

Turnaround Skit
The “Turn Around Skit” was created in 1989. The choreography was created by a high school student from Anchorage and it was performed at drug and alcohol prevention conferences around the state of Alaska. It was originally conceived as a skit to display the cycle of substance abuse and recovery. The creator is not surprised that it was adopted by Christian groups, but wants to set the record straight that it was not created to be a specifically Christian message. That being said, the creator of the skit wants anyone who is in recovery to find whatever they need to help them recover. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Andyinak (talk • contribs) 04:28, 17 November 2019 (UTC) I removed a reference to the "Turnaround Skit" being Christian, which was immediately reverted. Here's my explanation for the removal:

First, a web page I created is used as a reference here. This page is a reference page for organizers of Hugh O'Brian Youth Leadership (HOBY) seminars. This skit is used at several seminars in the US, including the Michigan-West seminar for at least the past 8 years. It is also the only place I've ever seen the skit. HOBY has no religious affiliation, explicit or implicit.

Second, The revert message was: "Does anyone remember the Turnaround skit, either from high school or from your Baptist church growing up?" The variation on the skit explained on my page has no religious references whatsoever. The skit consists of a fairly powerful story of a woman falling into drug addiction and surviving with the help of her friends. While drug use is discouraged by many religions, religious groups by no means have a monopoly on this skit.

Finally, two of the three external references given are for purely secular versions of the skit, and the third is a blog entry.

I am removing the Christian reference again, please discuss it here in the future. --Dcclark 01:20, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Well, I quoted "Does anyone remember the Turnaround skit, either from high school or from your Baptist church growing up?" from this blog I didn't add the skit part, someone else did. When added, it stated that it was Christian, so I did some searches on Google, and that's what I came up with. Either way, you're most likely right. But it seems that this skit has some vague Christian connections.
 * EliasAlucard|Talk 03:53, 12 Jun, 2005 (UTC)
 * My school (a Catholic academy in Ontario, Canada) did a version of this play that had faceless actors portraying the Seven Deadly Sins instead of drugs, and the three friends reduced to a single Christ-like figure. Perhaps this version was the Christian play/skit/performance that earlier users recalled.
 * Quite likely -- there seem to be Christian variations on it, but it's not fundamentally a Christian skit, which is the reason behind my changes. --Dcclark 22:04, 29 July 2005 (UTC)

Backing
I hear that's Meat Loaf doing the backing vocals ("Turn around..."). Is that true? 142.161.198.177 21:34, 5 August 2005 (UTC)
 * "Doing"? For which project? The JPS 22:25, 5 August 2005 (UTC)
 * If you're talking about Total Eclipse for the Heart, the back-up vocalist was Holly Sherwood. I don't think there were any others in the song. Graham 05:02, 6 August 2005 (UTC)
 * What you heard is not true. Rory Dodd sang the turn around lines in this song. Meat Loaf's voice was severely damaged at this time. Rory Dodd (and probably Holly as well) did the back up vocals in the choir part of the song in the beginning, where you can hear a choir if you concentrate. But at the end, when the Turn Around voice fades the song, that's Rory Dodd all the way, and every other Turn Around line.

Added to article
This was added to the article by an anon: "Not sure where i should add this, but could sombody do somthing on this page explaining what the song means?" I think this is a good suggestion, but I don't know where to start without making it look like a high school essay. Graham/pianoman87 talk 09:19, 13 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Interesting, but remember that any such section would need strict citations. Otherwise we would be stooping to POV or original research. The JPS 03:04, 14 February 2006 (UTC)

We can tell you here thought. Its all about affairs.. illicit sex. "every now and then".. she wants more "love in the dark". —Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.92.40.8 (talk) 13:35, 5 June 2009 (UTC)

Inspired by Wuthering Heights?
Does anyone have evidence for this? I know the writer produced MTV's Wuthering Heights adaptation, but that doesn't mean anything.
 * Mmm... haven't heard anything. It's All Coming Back to Me Now was inspired by WH, but that is sourced in that article. The JPS talk to me  16:30, 20 December 2006 (UTC)

Probably most successful to date?
"It is probably Steinman's most successful commercial composition to date."

What does that mean? To what date? Ccrrccrr 06:02, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

 * 11 years late on this, but just in case anyone's still following, the phrase "to date" in this concept means "so far", or "as of today", and if it's still not apparent, just think of it as "so far, as of today's date". — Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.89.162.178 (talk) 21:30, 8 July 2018 (UTC)

 * That sentence is vague in several ways.

 * First, is the dated language. 11 years ago, it would have been correct to say, "To date, there has not been an African American president of the United States." Had that been added to the article, it would have been wrong on January 20, 2009. Were it still in the article, it would have been wrong for 9 years now. Better would be, "…"

 * "Probably" screams that this is likely original research.

 * Next up would be "most successful". Presumably, this is referring to highest charting on -- um -- pick a chart. Maybe it's the Billboard 200, maybe it means in the UK or Brazil or some kind of combination of various charts from various countries. Or maybe it's referring to gross sales, in number of copies. Or in gross dollars. Or profit. Maybe it means airplay. Perhaps it was intended to establish the band as a pop act and did that. Who knows? Better would be "highest charting single in the United States."

 * I'm not sure what is being established by calling it a "commercial composition". It seems to mean recordings offered for sale. I'm not really aware of Steinman having any particularly notable non-profit or private compositions. - Sum mer PhD v2.0 22:24, 8 July 2018 (UTC)

The video
Anyone care to add a section on the video for this song? I'd love to know what the video is supposed to be about - I couldn't make any sense of it. 69.204.5.228 (talk) 16:01, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
 * The video is both excellent and notable - and it makes perfect sense to me but I couldn't explain it! DuncanHill (talk) 00:40, 20 November 2008 (UTC)

IMO, The explanation is X rated. The song is about sex... her sex life.. an affair not a daytime partnership. Its about "falling apart" ... "I need you tonight". "once i had light in my life, now I have love in the dark". Now she has SEX in the dark, clearly. The video indicates the senior boys as the object of her desire.There is a junior boy in the video ...  where its revealed she is the teacher... As for the funny eyes ... its a reference to futureworld, the page already directs you to have a look.. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Futureworld ... those boys have been drugged .. induced... I can explain the ninja's. ninja's come for a purpose don't they. they dont dilly dally. they come for one purpose and one purpose only... its a metaphore for boys who really want to... with her. 202.92.40.8 (talk) 12:47, 5 June 2009 (UTC)

Um, I always thought the boys' glowing eyes were a reference to Village of the Damned. The literal video version of the song picks up on it (subtly, though). And that was what everyone immediately thought about when the video was first out (Besides "WTF"? of course ... I highly recommend that literal video version; that video has been waiting for a quarter-century for somebody to do that). Daniel Case (talk) 03:23, 11 June 2009 (UTC)

No one is going to mention the new remake of it? Just search youtube for "Total eclipse of the heart literal video". --24.250.239.161 (talk) 17:28, 4 August 2009 (UTC)

More on the video
Yeah, I was actually wondering, there's this internet meme called literal music videos, and the literal version of this song by David A. Scott is probably one of the most popular and highly acclaimed of these types of videos. Wikipedia has an article about the meme, as I linked above, with several citations directing to or mentioning the video's coverage by various national news sources. So I'm putting the question out there, should we mention the literal video version on this page? I'm not saying we should, but just want to make sure the issue is addressed. 71.231.76.242 (talk) 00:06, 15 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Nevermind, I saw it is mentioned on this article!! Should look more closely before I speak, I guess.  Good, then, just keep it as it is, it's certainly worth mention (a great video, might I add). 71.231.76.242 (talk)

Brak (Cartoon Network) version
YouTube clip Not sure when this was done. (I had forgotten how much I hate this song until I stumbled across this clip the other day...) Probably from The Brak Show, 2000-2003. Black Max (talk) 06:10, 23 July 2011 (UTC)Black Max

Charts
I need help with finding South African charts for this song. I'm fine with the Template:Singlechart, but there's no clear way to insert or find a South African singles chart. Can anyone help me out?? I also need to find Canadian Adult Contemporary if that's possible. Bonnietylersave (talk) 19:14, 20 May 2013 (UTC)

Use in Battlefield 4

No information about song
At present, this article contains virtually no information about the song itself (e.g., descriptions of its music or lyrics). AJD (talk) 01:14, 20 June 2014 (UTC)
 * I doubt anyone would object to you being bold and adding some, provided it's reliably sourced. Happy editing! DonIago (talk) 12:34, 20 June 2014 (UTC)
 * I'll see what I can do in terms of finding sources for this kind of content. It's about time the technical musical side of the song was addressed in the article. Bonnietylersave (talk) 17:58, 19 August 2014 (UTC)

Importance scale missing?
Usually on a song's talk page you find the class rating (in this case at the time of posting, Start Class), and a rating on the Importance Scale; "low", "mid", "high". Why is it not the case for this song? Bonnietylersave (talk) 22:22, 19 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Looks to me like it's rated at the top. DonIago (talk) 02:54, 20 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Huh, maybe it's my eyes?! Strange. All I see is the box stating that it's in the scope of WikiProject Songs, and rated. Start-Class on the quality scale, without the Importance Scale. For an example, see this talk page :) Bonnietylersave (talk) 17:42, 20 August 2014 (UTC)

 * Another mystery solved. :) DonIago (talk) 16:52, 20 August 2014 (UTC)

Why "Welsh" singer and not "British" singer?
Does the article really need to be so specific as to say she's Welsh in the first sentence? Wouldn't simply saying she's "British" suffice? More people around the world are familiar with the UK/Britain than Wales. If I were to go to an article on a musician born in California USA, the article would say "American" singer, not "Californian" singer.MisterZed (talk) 15:52, 2 September 2014 (UTC)
 * I have toyed around with this for years on Wikipedia. All other Welsh stars seem to have articles citing them as Welsh singers, not British singers, plus the fact that there has occasionally been publication errors stating that Tyler is Scottish. Refer to Shirley Bassey and her related singles and songs, and also Tom Jones (singer). I think it should be kept the same, but further discussion from others is welcome. Bonnietylersave (talk) 17:01, 2 September 2014 (UTC)

certified platinum in 2001 != 2 million copies shipped
There seems to be a slight misunderstanding among editors of this article about what RIAA re-certifications following the lowering of standards for singles certifications in 1989 represents. Let me try to explain.

"Total Eclipse of the Heart" (the Bonnie Tyler recording) was certified gold in 1983. At the time, the gold certification was awarded to singles that had shipped a million copies. The single shipped a million; everyone seems to agree on that.

It was certified platinum in 2001. At this point, platinum certifications were awarded to singles that had shipped a million. In other words, the requirement was the same as the requirement it had met to be certified gold in 1983. That's because, as mentioned earlier, the requirements were revised to be slightly more lenient in 1989 to reflect the shifting realities of the singles business at the time, which had been in a steep decline.

It might be tempting, even reasonable, to assume, because the single came out prior to the revision of the standards, that a platinum certification, even awarded in 2001, signifies that it met the old standard for platinum (two million copies shipped) rather than the new. Indeed, the shipments figure that the Certification Table Entry template autogenerates seems to be based on "relyear" rather than "certyear." However, this is flat-out incorrect. As clearly stated by Billboard's Chart Beat columnist at the time Paul Grein here, all singles that had been certified gold prior to 1989 were eligible for platinum status right away upon the revision of the rules, without having to sell even one more copy. Of course, this did not mean that all prior gold-singles were instantly re-awarded platinum, because, as always, certifications are only awarded after the record label requests it.

If you do an advanced search on the RIAA's database for singles released before 1989 earning their platinum certification, you'll find a surprising number of them doing so. In fact, I see that 27 singles released before 1989 that had previously been certified gold were re-certified platinum between 1998 and 2002. Many of them came out in the early 70s and mid-to-late 60s. Does that mean that all these singles were somehow finally crossing the two million mark? No. It's actually highly unlikely that anything more than a negligible number of each of these singles was even still retail-available -- unlike with albums, labels didn't replenish stock for singles indefinitely! More often, they actually DELETED singles from retail, meaning they would decline to allow retailers to order more stock of that single and cease to manufacture more copies. Clearly, these old singles were not gradually creeping towards another million having been shipped. The only reasonable explanation is what Grein's article points out -- that they were simply eligible for re-certification as platinum based on the same shipments data they had amassed during their peak popularity, and that the labels had simply requested the re-certification around that time. These singles, including "Total Eclipse of the Heart," have sold one million, not two million, copies. Mmrsofgreen (talk) 08:27, 11 May 2015 (UTC)

 * This still doesn't explain the platinum 7" that was manufactured by the RIAA in 1983, which states "To commemorate the sale of more than 2,000,000 copies of the Columbia Records single record Total Eclipse of the Heart" Tyler keeps all of her certifications on display in her house. I will try to find out what statistic is found on her platinum disc at home, and at what date she received it. Bonnietylersave (talk) 12:11, 2 July 2016 (UTC)

Genre with reference
After so many anonymous edits, and people trying to add a genre to the infobox, I think it's worth discussing on this page. Does anyone have any suggestions on publications to search for, or other sources, that could be used as a reference for the song's genre? Bonnietylersave (talk) 14:37, 20 June 2015 (UTC)
 * All the anonymous IP adresses which tried to add unsourced genres seem to be used by a previously blocked user called Lam Thuy Van (aka the "soft rock vandal from Vietnam") and I'm not sure adding a sourced genre will solve the problem. The best thing to do would be to ask for another semi-protection (or to block the IP adress which is currently genre warring over this article). Synthwave.94 (talk) 14:08, 20 June 2015 (UTC)

Yes, it was used in a movie...
...several, in fact, along with a number of TV shows. This is common and is seldom notable. Notable uses would include those that, for example, brought a long-dormant song back to the charts. More likely would be the use of the song in a film where the film in some significant way change perception of the song, as discussed in independent reliable sources. - Sum mer PhD v2.0 19:41, 5 September 2016 (UTC)

Rory Dodd's career
Does anyone know whether he is the co-lead vocalist or co-vocalist in this song? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Clrichey (talk • contribs) 00:54, 21 October 2017 (UTC)

Suggested Changes
I'd like to propose a few changes to this article but feel it would be ideal to open up a discussion first:

 * Charts: Just use one table for all peak positions (1983–2019) rather than a separate table for re-entries. Instead we could introduce a "Chart performance" section with text describing the song's trajectory on certain national charts, where relevant. This would provide an opportunity to explain why the song has experienced certain re-entries (such as the 2017 eclipse).

 * Infobox Track Length: Just include the original 1983 album and single lengths and not all of Tyler's re-recordings.

Please feel free to add comments, agreements or objections. Skyrack95 (talk) 11:34, 20 June 2020 (UTC)

Francis Crowe Society

The Francis Crowe Society is an honor society intended to recognise the graduates of the University of Maine's College of Engineering.

The society was founded in the fall of 2000 by Dean Larryl Matthews and named in honor of Francis T. Crowe, a Civil Engineer of the University's class of 1905 who designed 19 of the 'super-dams' in the Western United States that made farming possible in the Great Basin, the California Central Valley, Central Arizona and the Imperial Valley. Each graduate from the College of Engineering is invited to join and each department has the opportunity to nominate a distinguished engineer (generally an alumnus or senior member of the college but not necessarily so) for induction. These recipients are engineers who have distinguished themselves in their field of study and their induction is intended to serve as a role model to the new graduates. Generally the title 'Distinguished Engineer' (or Inductee) is reserved for alumni while non-alumni are named as 'Honorary Members'.

Note that if you visit the Hoover Dam, Francis Crowe's name does not appear on the plaque commemorating the engineers, politicians and other major players.

Notable Society Members

USS Sharkey

USS Sharkey (DD-281) was a Clemson-class destroyer in the United States Navy following World War I. She was named for William J. Sharkey.

History
Sharkey was laid down on 14 April 1919 by the Bethlehem Shipbuilding Corporation, Squantum, Massachusetts; launched on 12 August 1919; sponsored by Mrs. Mary E. Sharkey; and commissioned on 28 November 1919.

Immediately after commissioning, Sharkey was sent to the rescue of SS Powhatan and was one of four ships standing by as the stricken vessel was taken under tow. She then completed shakedown out of Newport, Rhode Island, and departed that port on 28 January 1920 for Guantanamo Bay. Late in April, she steamed to Boston for repairs. When the work was completed, she joined the Reserve Destroyers, Atlantic Fleet, at Charleston, South Carolina, on 5 October.

Sharkey got underway on 10 May 1921 for summer operations out of Newport and returned to Charleston on 24 October. She departed again on 29 May 1922 for exercises off Norfolk, Virginia, which lasted until she entered the Boston Navy Yard for repairs on 2 December.

Sharkey sailed on 11 January 1923 for the Caribbean, and participated in Fleet Problem I off Panama and in combined fleet exercises until sailing from the Caribbean on 2 April for the Philadelphia Navy Yard. Departing the yard on 11 August, she participated in maneuvers off Newport and, between 31 August and 4 September, the Fisherman's Races at Gloucester, Massachusetts, before departing Newport on 1 October 1923 for exercise areas off Norfolk. She spent the period from 18 November 1923 to 3 January 1924 in the Philadelphia Navy Yard.

On 4 January 1924, Sharkey sailed from Lynnhaven Roads, Virginia, with the Scouting Fleet for the annual fleet concentration in the Caribbean. The exercises lasted from 11 January to 28 February, after which Sharkey underwent overhaul at Boston from 3 March to 14 June. Between 10 July and 28 July, she operated with USS Colorado (BB-45) off Bermuda testing a range finder for destroyers and, after repairs to a bent propeller, completed the trials between 5 September and 24 September with USS West Virginia (BB-48). Following more exercises, she arrived at Philadelphia on 1 November 1924.

On 10 January 1925, Sharkey departed Philadelphia for the Caribbean. On 26 January, she embarked the President and Cabinet of Haiti for a short cruise, and then trained with the fleet in the Caribbean until 28 March. She made reserve training cruises from Philadelphia between 14 April and 6 May; but, on the latter date, damaged a turbine and entered the Norfolk Navy Yard for repairs. She resumed reserve training cruises between 23 July and 5 September 1925 and cruised to Guantanamo and back between 19 September and 20 November.

Sharkey returned to Guantanamo on 13 January 1926, and transited the Panama Canal on 4 February to participate in Fleet Problem VI off the west coast of Central America. She returned to Norfolk on 21 February and remained there undergoing overhaul until 23 April. On 17 June, she departed Newport with her division for Europe. She visited northern European ports between 29 June and 20 November 1926; then spent three months in the western Mediterranean and visited the eastern Mediterranean from 20 February to 7 May 1927. She next made a one-week cruise in the Black Sea, visiting Romania and Bulgaria before returning to Newport on 11 July 1927. She spent the remainder of the year in making naval reserve cruises and twice undergoing repairs at Norfolk.

Sharkey arrived at Guantanamo on 11 January 1928 and operated with the fleet in the Caribbean until 31 March. After training reserves off Norfolk and Newport, she underwent overhaul at Norfolk from 29 July to 2 October. She exercised off Charleston for two months and returned to Norfolk for the Christmas holidays. Underway on 4 January 1929, Sharkey transited the Panama Canal on the 20th and participated in Fleet Problem IX and combined fleet exercises off Panama. Again transiting the canal on 7 March, she continued exercises with the fleet in the Caribbean until 27 April. After exercises and reserve training cruises on the east coast, she entered the Norfolk Navy Yard on 22 July for overhaul.

Fate
She was ordered decommissioned instead, and was towed to the Philadelphia Navy Yard by USS Kalmia (AT-23) on 2 October 1929 and decommissioned there on 1 May 1930. Sharkey was struck from the Navy list on 22 October 1930 and sold for scrapping on 17 January 1931 to Boston Iron and Metal Company, Baltimore, Maryland.

As of 2005, no other ship has been named Sharkey.

Mike Duffy

Michael Dennis Duffy (born May 27, 1946) is a former Canadian senator and former Canadian television journalist. Prior to his appointment to the upper house in 2008, he was the Ottawa editor for CTV News Channel. Upon turning 75 on May 27, 2021, Duffy retired from the senate due to mandatory retirement rules.

Early life
Mike Duffy was born in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island to Lillian and Wilfrid Duffy. He is a grandson of Charles Gavan Duffy, a PEI Liberal MLA and Speaker of the Legislative Assembly of Prince Edward Island.

Duffy studied humanities at St. Dunstan's College.

Journalism career
Duffy became a ham radio operator at the age of 16 and began his career as a teen disc jockey at CFCY-TV. He moved to print journalism with The Guardian in Charlottetown. In 1965, he served as news director at CKDH-FM in Amherst, Nova Scotia before heading to CFCF in Montreal as a lineup and assignment editor in 1969, and in 1971, he joined CFRA radio in Ottawa as a political reporter.

Duffy joined CBC radio's Parliament Hill bureau in 1974, and became a reporter for the flagship television newscast The National in 1977. Duffy became the lead CBC television reporter on Parliament Hill and covered the elections and most of the important federal stories of the Trudeau, Clark and Mulroney governments. Duffy is primarily known for his work as an Ottawa journalist, but he has been a foreign correspondent. He covered the fall of South Vietnam in April 1975 and was one of the last journalists to leave before the arrival of North Vietnamese troops and Viet Cong insurgents.

In 1988, Duffy joined Baton Broadcasting as the first host of its Sunday morning news program Sunday Edition based in Ottawa. When that series ended in 1999, Duffy moved to his role as a show host and interviewer with CTV Newsnet (now the CTV News Channel). Long known as an "Ottawa insider", he was able to get many elected officials to appear on his programs. Duffy hosted two programs on CTV Newsnet, Countdown with Mike Duffy and Mike Duffy Live, which was broadcast in the supper hour news slot. Duffy was also a popular speaker at conferences, annual meetings and other events across Canada and, writer Stevie Cameron noted in her 1990 book Ottawa Inside Out, was probably the most-recognized journalist on Parliament Hill.

On May 27, 2009, the Canadian Broadcast Standards Council ruled Duffy violated Canadian broadcasting codes during the 2008 Canadian federal election. It concluded that Duffy's decision to re-broadcast an earlier ATV Halifax broadcast of ‘false starts’ of an interview with then-Liberal leader Stephane Dion “was not fair, balanced, or even handed.” The Panel also concluded that, during the same broadcast, Duffy “significantly misrepresented the view of one of the three members of his Panel...Liberal MP Geoff Regan.” The panel thus concluded “that the consistent misrepresentation by host Mike Duffy of the MP’s point of view constituted an unfair and improper presentation of opinion or comment contrary to clause 6 of the CAB Code of Ethics."

Awards and honours
In 1986, he won an ACTRA Award for live television reporting, for his coverage of the 1985 Turkish embassy attack in Ottawa by the Armenian Revolutionary Army. In 1994, Duffy was inducted into the Canadian Association of Broadcasters Hall of Fame.

Duffy has received honorary degrees from the University of Prince Edward Island, as well as Wilfrid Laurier University and from Niagara University in Niagara Falls, New York. He has been a visiting fellow at Duke University, in Durham, North Carolina, and has been twice nominated for the "best in the business" award by the Washington Journalism Review.

In 2002, he was awarded the Golden Jubilee Medal by the Governor General of Canada on behalf of Queen Elizabeth II.

Political career
On December 22, 2008, Duffy was named a Prince Edward Island representative to the Senate on the advice of Prime Minister Stephen Harper, sitting as a Conservative. He subsequently retired as a TV journalist at the end of 2008. He was introduced to the Senate on 26 January 2009 immediately prior to the Speech from the Throne.

Expenses controversy
In 2012, Duffy was accused by the media and Senate of improperly claiming primary residency outside of Ottawa in order to claim living expenses for time working in Ottawa. Three other senators, with different fact cases, were also accused of filing false expenses. On February 28, 2013, the Senate Committee on the Internal Economy announced that Duffy, Pamela Wallin, Mac Harb, and Patrick Brazeau would be subject to a forensic audit to determine appropriateness of their expense claims. After several weeks of negative publicity, Duffy, despite believing he was entitled to claim the PEI residence, volunteered to pay back the expenses he had claimed for his Ottawa residence. Prime Minister Harper's Chief of Staff, Nigel Wright wrote a personal cheque to Duffy for $90,172 to cover past residency expenses claimed as part of an agreement Duffy made with the Prime Minister's Office. Duffy then repaid the Government of Canada $90,172 in March 2013. Duffy resigned from the Conservative caucus on May 16, 2013, and became an independent senator. On November 5, 2013 the Senate voted to suspend Duffy and two other senators. However, in his trial decision exonerating Duffy in 2016, Ontario Superior Court Judge Charles Vaillancourt said Duffy had not falsely claimed living expenses. The judge said Duffy had no choice in the matter, as he had been appointed to represent Prince Edward Island in the Senate.

Acquittal on criminal charges
On July 17, 2014, Duffy was charged by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police with 31 offences. Duffy was acquitted of all charges on April 21, 2016. Ontario Court Justice Charles Vaillancourt ruled: "Mr. Neubauer (the Crown prosecutor) stated that Senator Duffy’s actions were driven by deceit, manipulations and carried out in a clandestine manner representing a serious and marked standard expected of a person in Senator Duffy’s position of trust. I find that if one were to substitute the PMO, Nigel Wright and others for Senator Duffy in the aforementioned sentence that you would have a more accurate statement." The judge ruled Duffy had no choice but to list his Prince Edward Island home as his principal residence, as he had been appointed a senator from that province and was constitutionally required to be resident there. Duffy's "free will" had been "overwhelmed" and he had "capitulated" as a result of the PMO's -- Prime Minister Stephen Harper's office, that is, -- "threatening efforts," the judge said. The Superior Court judge said Duffy had been pressured by senior members of the Prime Minister's staff to admit to improper expense accounts when they were, in fact, legitimate, adding "the real deceit came from Harper's office." Robert Fife, now the Globe and Mail's Ottawa bureau chief, won an award for his reporting on the so-called "Senate scandal." On the day Sen. Duffy was acquitted, Fife claimed he had been repeatedly misled by the Harper PMO. He went on to declare the scandal was a "manipulative hoax" by Nigel Wright foisted on the Canadian public. "From the beginning when I broke that story on the $90,000. The Prime Minister’s Office every step of the way lied to me, they lied to Canadians. And inch by inch we were able to scale back and find out one lie after another, one lie after another. And then in the summertime when Nigel Wright and the other key lieutenants in the Prime Minister’s Office were put on the stand, we saw just how this manipulative hoax was put on the Canadian public." Duffy immediately resumed his seat in the Senate and sat as an independent until his retirement.

Civil lawsuit
On August 24, 2017, Duffy filed a lawsuit against the Senate and the Royal Canadian Mounted Police seeking damages of CA$8 million. Duffy alleged the RCMP was liable for negligent investigation. He accused the Senate of abuse of process and breaching its duty to provide him with a fair hearing before suspending him. Duffy accused the Senate of acting under media pressure and adding to stress that took a heavy toll on his health.

In December 2018, the Ontario Superior Court dismissed Duffy's lawsuit against the Senate. The decision by Justice Sally Gomery included this statement: "Allowing a court to revisit the Senate's decisions at issue here would interfere with the Senate's ability to function as an independent legislative body, equal to other branches of government". Duffy's suit against the RCMP, based on alleged negligence in their investigation, was not affected by this decision.

In January 2019, Duffy filed an appeal to the Ontario Court of Appeal. His appeal was ultimately unsuccessful. In October 2020, Duffy filed an appeal to the Supreme Court of Canada, which was dismissed in February 2021.

Sunday Edition (Canadian TV program)

Sunday Edition is a Canadian public affairs television program which aired from 1988 to 1999. The program was hosted by Mike Duffy and originated at CJOH-TV in Ottawa, Ontario. Over the course of its run, it aired in several different time slots from late Sunday morning to early Sunday afternoons. Its format was similar to that of American Sunday morning talk shows.

The program was at first co-operatively produced by several CTV affiliates, but at that point was not officially a CTV network program. Sunday Edition later became part of the Baton Broadcast System schedule and only officially became a CTV program in early 1998, shortly after Baton Broadcasting's acquisition of the network. At the same time, production moved to CTV's flagship studios at CFTO-TV in the Toronto suburb of Scarborough.

The show was cancelled in 1999, and Duffy moved to a role as host of a prime time talk and interview series on CTV Newsnet.

The CTV News-produced Question Period, which had been cancelled in the mid-1990s apparently due to the success of Sunday Edition, was revived in 2001 and now fills a similar role.

KR Motors

KR Motors Co. Ltd. is a South Korean motorcycle manufacturer.

History
Founded in 1978 as a division of the Hyosung Group of industries, Hyosung began producing Japanese Suzuki motorcycle designs under license for the South Korean market in Changwon, South Korea in 1979. In 1986, they established their own research and development center in Hamamatsu, Japan, and the next year, they began mass production of their own designs. They were the official motorcycle supplier for the 1988 Summer Olympics in Seoul. In 2003, Hyosung Motors & Machinery Inc. was spun off from the Hyosung Group to become its own corporate entity. In June 2007, Hyosung Motors Division was acquired by Korean company S&T Group (Science and Technology), and the name was changed to S&T Motors. In 2014 S&T Motors was acquired by Kolao Holdings (now known as LVMC Holdings), and the name was changed to KR Motors.

Current products

Recently, KR Motors has expanded from its traditional business of simple and efficient bikes for commuting into the recreational market. This includes adding models with larger engine displacement, up to 678cc and expanding into developed markets such as Australia, Northern Europe, Canada, India, Middle East, Thailand and the United States.

Random Encounter (film)

Random Encounter is a 1998 movie directed by Douglas Jackson and written by Matt Dorff. It stars Elizabeth Berkley as a young and rising public relations executive who meets a strange man after a cocktail party, and is framed for murder.

Reception
TV Guide said, "while such trashy cautionary tales can be hugely entertaining (take NO STRINGS ATTACHED, for example), this threadbare thriller is undermined by truly appalling performances."

53rd United States Congress

The 53rd United States Congress was a meeting of the legislative branch of the United States federal government, consisting of the United States Senate and the United States House of Representatives. It met in Washington, D.C., from March 4, 1893, to March 4, 1895, during the first two years of Grover Cleveland's second presidency. The apportionment of seats in the House of Representatives was based on the 1890 United States census.

The Democrats maintained their majority in the House (albeit reduced) and won back control of the Senate. With Grover Cleveland being sworn in on March 4, 1893, for his second stint as President, this also gave the Democrats an overall federal government trifecta for the first time since the establishment of the Republican Party in 1854.
