Saint-Vaast-la-Hougue

Saint-Vaast-la-Hougue is a commune in the Manche department in Normandy in north-western France.

It is particularly known for being a major site of fortifications designed by Sébastien Le Prestre de Vauban: the watchtowers of Tatihou and La Hougue having been listed in 2008 as part of the Fortifications of Vauban UNESCO World Heritage Sites.

Saint-Vaast-la-Hougue was awarded "2 flowers" by the concours des villes et villages fleuris contest and the town was elected "favourite French village 2019" in a television programme broadcast on France 3 in 2019.

Toponymy
Saint-Vaast is the Norman name of Saint Vedast and Hougue is a Norman language word meaning a "mound" or "loaf" and comes from the Old Norse word haugr.

Geography
Saint-Vaast-la-Hougue is part of the canton of Val-de-Saire and the arrondissement of Cherbourg. The town had a population of 1,712 in 2019. It is located on the north east coast of the Cotentin peninsula and home to a marina. The town is crossed by the Saire.

The island of Tatihou is located about 1 km from the coast, and forms part of the commune. It is usually reached by amphibious craft although, being a tidal island, it is also possible to walk there over at low tide. Just like the large trawlers moored at the port, the oyster beds visible at low tide between Tatihou and the coast testify to the predominance of maritime activity in Saint-Vaast, which is the oldest oyster basin in Normandy.

Saint-Vaast-la-Hougue is one of 303 French municipalities identified as seriously threatened by rising water levels, due to global warming.

Prehistory
Excavations, led by Gérard Fosse (1948-2019), revealed human occupation dating from the Mousterian period on the site of the Fort of Saint-Vaast-la-Hougue. As early as 1832, A. Bigot demonstrated the ancient occupation of Saint-Vaast with the discovery of a flint tool at La Hougue. On the island of Tatihou, traces of ancient bronze was discovered at Clos du Lazaret.

Middle Ages
The village, before being called Saint-Vaast, only included a few homes built around a church near to what would later be called Porte-aux-dames.

Around the year 1000, near Saint-Vaast-la-Hougue, Néel I of Saint-Sauveur, a Norman baron of the House of Saint-Sauveur (fr), repelled an Anglo-Saxon landing led by Æthelred the Unready. The Anglo-Saxon invasion failed thanks to the efforts of Saint-Sauveur who defeated the invaders at the battle of Val-de-Saire. William of Jumièges explains that this landing aimed to capture Richard II, Duke of Normandy. The historian François Neveux expresses some doubts concerning this assertion, noting the distance of Rouen from the battlefield. For him, it was just a pillaging raid in retaliation for Viking expeditions in the Anglo-Saxon kingdom.

The medieval parish, fiefdom of Fécamp Abbey, is under the patronage of Saint Vaast, who never came to Normandy; it was in French Flanders that he exercised his priesthood, as bishop of Arras. It was probably during the construction in the 11th century of the first church, the current Sailors' Chapel, that the monks of Fécamp Abbey chose Saint Vaast as their patron. For Éric Barré, the dedication of the church of La Hougue to Saint Vaast, and by extension the name of the parish, would be the result of the meeting of the fishermen of the place with the fishermen of Artois and Picardy in the Baie de Seine. According to local tradition, the region was evangelized by Vaast d'Arras, bishop of Arras and Saint Vigor, bishop of Bayeux in the 6th century. While they were going towards what would become Quettehou, the bishops had to cross La Bonde on a wooden plank which gave way to the passage of Saint Vaast. La Bonde still serves as a boundary between the two parishes.

In 1296, during the Gascon War, Saint-Vaast provided 12 warships.

In 1340, during the Battle of Sluys, many of La Hougue's carracks were sunk: the Saint-Jehan, the Saint-Jame, the Nostre-Dame, the Saint-Esperit, the Jehannète, the Pélerine, the Mignolète, and the Sainte-Marie.

As part of the Hundred Years' War, Edward III of England in 1346 launched a series of raids throughout northern France known as the Crécy campaign. Edward requisitioned the largest fleet assembled by the English to that date, 747 ships, and on 11 July set sail from the Isle of Wight, making landfall at Saint-Vaast-la-Hougue, on 12 July. On 9 July five hundred guards, probably Genoese archers hired by the king of France, had spent ten weeks guarding the outskirts of Saint-Vaast, but having not received their pay had all left.

In June 1356, it was also at La Hougue that Henry of Grosmont, Duke of Lancaster landed before attacking Normandy and in 1357, an English garrison commanded by Robert de Ewes also settled in La Hougue.

Modern era
The naval Battle of La Hougue took place off the town in 1692. On 3 June 1692 during a heated battle with the Anglo-Dutch fleet, twelve French ships were sunk in the vicinity of the island of Tatihou, just off the coast of Saint-Vaast-la-Hougue. It was the decisive naval battle of the Nine Years' War, also known as the War of the English Succession.

Following the French defeat, two fortified towers were built from 1694 onwards on the mound at La Hougue and Tatihou Island by a student of Vauban, Benjamin de Combes, in order to defend the bay. The towers were inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List in 2008 as part of the Fortifications of Vauban site for their testimony to Vauban's work and its importance in the development of military architecture from the 17th through the 19th centuries.

A French frigate squadron anchored at Saint-Vaast-la-Hougue was attacked by a British squadron at the action of 15 November 1810, which ultimately led to the destruction of the French ship French frigate Elisa.

Contemporary era
Fortification work continued until the 19th century, when the port of Saint-Vaast-la-Hougue was developed by the civil engineer Charles-Félix Morice de la Rue (1800-1880). The large pier was built from 1828 to 1845 then the quays from 1846 to 1852. Breakwaters were then added to delimit the port. Before this period, Saint-Vaast only had a natural beaching port to the west of Pointe de la Hougue, which was still used in the 19th century.

Shortly before the Normandy landings with the Allied troops rapidly advancing the Germans left Saint-Vaast-la-Hougue on 18 June 1944 by setting fire to the barracks of Tatihou Island and destroyed the lines of the PTT telephone exchange. On 21 June 1944, the port of Saint-Vaast-la-Hougue was the first Channel port liberated by the Allies and for the next 100 days the port would experience very high traffic; the nearby port of Cherbourg having not yet been liberated.

A medieval whaling economy
Saint-Vaast-la-Hougue was a very active whaling center, as there was a dense population of the then common gray whale (which is now extinct in the Atlantic). The now rare right whale was likely also taken. The first of what may prove to be many more gray whales found its way through the now ice-free Northwest Passage in 2010 so perhaps they will eventually breed off Saint-Vaast-la-Hougue once more.

Culture
Saint-Vaast-la-Hougue organizes a regular Book Festival, "Ancres & Encres". Jean Raspail and Jean-Pierre Thiollet may be mentioned among the authors invited in the last ten years. Saint-Vaast-la-Hougue is also featured in the backdrop of the video game, Hearts of Iron IV, on a map background behind Bernard L. Montgomery and Erwin Rommel in the Steam main menu of the game.

Atheetha Roy English 2-H Warren-2 May 23, 2008 The Dark Side of Zero Tolerance Policy

While the dictionary’s definition of the well-known word “school” is defined as "an institution for teaching and learning", today's educational institutions include punishment, violence, and misbehavior. Bullying, misbehavior or even teen violence in school, in general, is an all-too-common human activity that has existed since the beginning of recorded history and is present in most cultures. This teen violence, whether its physical like bullying or verbal such as harassment, is ignited by a intricate network of different people with distinct dislikes and likes with contrasts in popularity and of different backgrounds. In fact, social bonding within the "in-groups" is partly derived from shared power over the "out-groups." Whatever the case might be, teen misbehavior is a serious issue that schools have tried to solve. In fact, while most schools think they have adopted a revolutionary solution to alleviate the bullying issue, called the zero tolerance policy, critics, including myself, disagree with such a policy that doesn't ask questions when a rule is broken. Even the National Association of School Psychologists stated that “Although zero tolerance policies were developed to assure...firm consequences for dangerous behaviors, broad application of these policies has resulted in a range of negative outcomes with few if any benefits to students or the school community.” In other words, the Zero Tolerance policy on bullies and misbehavers not only cause academic death, but a emotional and physical strain as well. Instead of this policy, which doesn’t seem to be working, proven discipline strategies, like a mandatory therapy, that provide more effective alternatives to broad zero tolerance policies should be implemented to ensure that all students have access to an appropriate education in a safe environment. That way, the negative impacts, in terms of academics, emotions, and environment, of zero tolerance policy on misbehavers will be placated by new positive results other than the negative results of expelling and suspending students.

The Zero Tolerance Policy not only affects the school but also a student’s opportunity to learn. This is caused by the well known method of suspension that is often included in this policy. While preventing education is not the intention of zero tolerance, its practices has become a negative side effect. For instance, the frequent expelling of misbehavers from school, particularly bullies, causes them to miss school for a period of time and thus they miss out on learning which is a key ingredient to be academically success. Also, research has shown that, “Over 30% of sophomores who dropped out of school had been suspended, a rate three times that of peers who stayed in school” With high drop out rates of just suspended students alone, it is no wonder that these drop out rates were contributed by the strict Zero Tolerance Policy application of school discipline practices. As a result, many expelled students have less-than-stellar academic records and less opportunity to be successful in their future ambitions. This policy is also detrimental to education because while Zero tolerance can limit misbehavior in the present, it can also hurt students' idea of school. For instance, by “kicking” a student out from academic learning without telling them what they could do to improve their situation, student’s automatically learn to program their minds with negative thoughts about the school. For example, “A 1994 study showed that students who were suspended and expelled believed that their school no longer wanted them “ With thoughts like these, they are likely to end upon the streets far from their academic environment. and be encouraged to engage in violent acts even on the school itself. While others might think that expelling students will create a better educational environment for the rest of the students, research have show that “schools that implement zero tolerance policies are still less safe than those that do not.” In other words, zero tolerance policy is not creating many positive results on academics and therefore alternative solutions should be implanted to placate these negative results that the Zero Tolerance Policy is having.

The zero tolerance policy is not only having an academic death on the expelled, but it might also be evident that frequent suspensions are impacting the student emotionally. For example, by reinforcing the Zero Tolerance Policy, it only further heightens the student’s shame, alienation, rejection, and further breaks from healthy childhood bonds. This might create, enhance, or accelerate negative mental health outcomes for youth. Students also experience real suffering that can interfere with their social and emotional development, as well as their school performance to a point where it is linked to an increase in life-threatening behavior like suicidal attempts. In fact, by expelling kids, it lowers their self esteem and makes them think that there is no point in continuing life. For instance, a student named “Eugene Cummings, then twenty-three...committed suicide at Harvard's Stillman Infirmary the day he learned he was being expelled, three weeks before graduation” due to the zero Tolerance policy.” In cases like these, the policy causes emotional trauma to an extend where the student feels emotional detachment as well as violent outbursts, depression, low self-esteem, loss of self-confidence. In fact, “If that is not being addressed, they are angry and hurt and wounded, and it comes out in one of two ways, through self-hate, cutting and drug abuse, or criminal behavior.“ In other words, these emotions are the key contributors to the recent increased crimes outside of school zones. In the end, from innocent little children to expelled teenagers who had just need some attention with having made some bad decisions, the zero tolerance policy had not only drained them emotionally, but also transformed them into completely different people. Therefore, the Zero Tolerance policy doesn’t seem to prove effective to an extend where alternative solutions need to be enforced in order to stop the negative impacts it is having on the young generations of the future. Besides the academic “death” and emotional drain that the Zero Tolerance Policy is responsible for, the policy is also having environmental effects. For example due to the dropout rates as discussed before, many young people are left on the streets and homeless, unemployed or, if lucky, have a mere high school diploma for low income jobs. Also, it encourages an increased crime rate ranging from young teens to young adults as a result of nothing better to do due to expulsions in the Zero Tolerance Policy. What started from a “simple suspension” of misbehaved students in the opinions of many school, turned out to have crucial environmental effects on the society itself. These expelled student not only contribute to the low standard of living, but they also reduce the profile of that society.

Zbyszek Godlewski

Zbigniew Eugeniusz Godlewski (3 August 1952 –17 December 1970) was a Polish man shot dead by security forces during the 1970 Polish protests in the city of Gdynia. The event was popularized across the country in the poem and song, known by the name of Ballad of Janek Wiśniewski.

Biography
On 17 December 1970, during Poland's demonstrations against the Communist regime, the army fired into the crowd of workers emerging from a commuter train in Gdynia, under the pretext of preventing an industrial sabotage action. At least 40 innocent people were killed by police. The image of an anonymous young man's body carried on a door panel through the cordons of police and tanks inspired author Krzysztof Dowgiałło to write the poem about him. The name Janek Wiśniewski was invented by Dowgiałło for the ballad to symbolize an 18-year old worker killed by the military or the militia. Not knowing his real name, the author gave him a symbolic name sounding typically Polish; it proved quite enduring. Later it was established by the opposition that the man shot dead was named Zbigniew Godlewski and had lived in nearby Elbląg.

Remembrance
The event was popularized across the country in the poem and song, known by the name of Ballad of Janek Wiśniewski ; the work is also sometimes known as Pieśń o Janku z Gdyni (Song about Janek from Gdynia). The text was written by Krzysztof Dowgiałło and music for the song by Mieczysław Cholewa. The song, along with the story of Janek Wiśniewski, was popularized when it was performed at the end of the 1981 movie Man of Iron (by actress Krystyna Janda along with Jacek Kaczmarski). After the fall of communism in Poland, a major street in Gdynia was named after Janek Wiśniewski and also a street in Elbląg was named after Zbigniew Godlewski.

In 2011, a Polish movie about the events of 17 December, titled Czarny Czwartek - Janek Wiśniewski padł ("Black Thursday - Janek Wiśniewski Has Fallen"), was released in cinemas. The title was inspired by a line in Pieśń o Janku z Gdyni. The song was covered by Kazik Staszewski and used in the movie trailer.

Literary nonsense
I am not sure if an article on Levine, or any writer, should include literary analysis of his or her works in the way it is persented here. It reads like a review of a Greenday concert. I would like to see less review of the "quality" and "meaning" of Levine's work and more about his contributions to the art of poetry. Bad analysis should never be used to back up false statements about a wrtier's life.

The Clientele

The Clientele are a British indie pop band based in London, which formed in 1991. The band are currently composed of lead singer/guitarist Alasdair MacLean, drummer Mark Keen and bassist James Hornsey. Since their inception, the Clientele have released eight albums and five EPs.

The band have toured extensively in the United States, where they have experienced more success than in their native Britain. They are currently signed to Merge Records, a North-Carolina based independent record label owned by members of Superchunk.

History
MacLean and Hornsey both grew up in Hampshire, England, and began collaborating musically while still in school, after MacLean saw that Hornsey had written the name of the band Felt on his pencil case. The band formed in 1991, with Innes Phillips sharing singing and songwriting duties with MacLean; their original name was The Butterfly Collectors. The band recorded an album's worth of material but failed to get any label interest. Innes left the band (and would go on to found The Relict); the rest of the group re-formed in 1997, after which they moved to London and released a number of singles that were eventually collected on Suburban Light (2000). That compilation won the band glowing reviews; SF Weekly said the band "offers a brand of appealingly melancholy pop that might just surpass that of its forebears." The Violet Hour (2003) was their first album proper, which again saw great acclaim, but, as yet, little commercial success.

August 2005 saw the release of their second album, Strange Geometry, the first the band recorded with a producer, Brian O'Shaughnessy, who had previously produced Primal Scream. It was notable for a much cleaner production sound than the reverb-heavy sound that had previously been their defining characteristic; it was also the first time the band had used a strings section on one of their records. The task of writing these arrangements was given to Louis Philippe. One single, "Since K Got Over Me", was released from the album. Another song from the album, "(I Can't Seem) To Make You Mine", was featured on the soundtrack of the film The Lake House.

Strange Geometry was quickly followed by a collection of recordings from 1991 to 1996, featuring Innes Phillips, called It's Art, Dad. After a U.S. tour in August 2006, The Clientele became a four-piece again, adding Mel Draisey (on violin, keys and percussion), who became their first female member. They then recorded the album God Save The Clientele with producer Mark Nevers, known for his work with Merge labelmates Lambchop; the album again featured several Louis Philippe-composed string arrangements. God Save The Clientele was released in May 2007 in the United States. Bonfires on the Heath followed in October 2009, and Minotaur, a Mini-LP, was released on 17 July 2010.

On 6 July 2011, the band announced on its website that The Clientele would be taking an indefinite hiatus. MacLean subsequently spent time on a project called Amor de Días, a collaboration with Spanish vocalist and instrumentalist Lupe Núñez-Fernández (of the indie pop duo Pipas). Amor de Días released two albums between 2011 and 2013.

The band announced that it would reunite for a lone gig at The Bell House in Brooklyn on 21 March 2014.

Since then, the 'Suburban Light' album has been reissued with bonus tracks and gave the band a Billboard top 30 album for the first time in their history. They also released two new singles in 2014, 'Falling Asleep' and 'On A Summer Trail'. The band have continued to tour in both the US and Europe, and MacLean is writing songs which may constitute a forthcoming album. On 24 March 2016, the group's official Facebook page posted an image of the mixing board at Brian O'Shaughnessy's Bark Studios in London, with the implication that the group were recording new material. On 16 June 2017, the band announced a new album, Music for the Age of Miracles, and a tour.

In July 2023, the band released their seventh studio album, I Am Not There Anymore.

Style
Their music has often been noted for its reverb-rich production and MacLean's distinctive breathy vocals (an effect achieved partly by MacLean singing with a microphone plugged into a guitar amplifier) and fingerstyle guitar technique. Their lyrics take a strong inspiration from surrealist literature and art from the early 20th century; "We Could Walk Together" quotes a line ("like a silver ring thrown into the flood of my heart") from a 1928 poem by French surrealist Joë Bousquet; in its final two verses, the song "What Goes Up" quotes the poem "Stupidity Street" by Ralph Hodgson in its entirety.

66th Street–Lincoln Center station

The 66th Street–Lincoln Center station is a local station on the IRT Broadway–Seventh Avenue Line of the New York City Subway. Located at the intersection of 66th Street and Broadway in the Lincoln Square neighborhood of Manhattan, it is served by the 1 train at all times and by the 2 train during late nights.

The 66th Street station was constructed for the Interborough Rapid Transit Company (IRT) as part of the city's first subway line, which was approved in 1900. Construction of the line segment that includes the 66th Street station began on August 22 of the same year. The station opened on October 27, 1904, as one of the original 28 stations of the New York City Subway. The station's platforms have been lengthened since opening.

The 66th Street station contains two side platforms and four tracks; express trains use the inner two tracks to bypass the station. The station was built with tile and mosaic decorations. The platforms contain exits to 66th Street and Broadway as well as to Lincoln Center, and to schools in the Center such as The Juilliard School and Fordham Lincoln Center. The station contains elevators from the street, which make it compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990.

Construction and opening
Planning for a subway line in New York City dates to 1864. However, development of what would become the city's first subway line did not start until 1894, when the New York State Legislature passed the Rapid Transit Act. The subway plans were drawn up by a team of engineers led by William Barclay Parsons, the Rapid Transit Commission's chief engineer. It called for a subway line from New York City Hall in lower Manhattan to the Upper West Side, where two branches would lead north into the Bronx. A plan was formally adopted in 1897, and all legal conflicts concerning the route alignment were resolved near the end of 1899.

The Rapid Transit Construction Company, organized by John B. McDonald and funded by August Belmont Jr., signed the initial Contract 1 with the Rapid Transit Commission in February 1900, under which it would construct the subway and maintain a 50-year operating lease from the opening of the line. In 1901, the firm of Heins & LaFarge was hired to design the underground stations. Belmont incorporated the Interborough Rapid Transit Company (IRT) in April 1902 to operate the subway.

The 66th Street station was constructed as part of the IRT's West Side Line (now the Broadway–Seventh Avenue Line) from 60th Street to 82nd Street, for which work had begun on August 22, 1900. Work for that section had been awarded to William Bradley. By late 1903, the subway was nearly complete, but the IRT Powerhouse and the system's electrical substations were still under construction, delaying the system's opening. The 66th Street station opened on October 27, 1904, as one of the original 28 stations of the New York City Subway from City Hall to 145th Street on the West Side Branch.

1910s to 1930s
After the first subway line was completed in 1908, the station was served by local trains along both the West Side (now the Broadway–Seventh Avenue Line to Van Cortlandt Park–242nd Street) and East Side (now the Lenox Avenue Line). West Side local trains had their southern terminus at City Hall during rush hours and South Ferry at other times, and had their northern terminus at 242nd Street. East Side local trains ran from City Hall to Lenox Avenue (145th Street).

To address overcrowding, in 1909, the New York Public Service Commission proposed lengthening the platforms at stations along the original IRT subway. As part of a modification to the IRT's construction contracts made on January 18, 1910, the company was to lengthen station platforms to accommodate ten-car express and six-car local trains. In addition to $1.5 million (equivalent to $ million in ) spent on platform lengthening, $500,000 (equivalent to $ million in ) was spent on building additional entrances and exits. It was anticipated that these improvements would increase capacity by 25 percent. Platforms at local stations, such as the 66th Street station, were lengthened by between 20 and 30 ft. Both platforms were extended to the north and south. Six-car local trains began operating in October 1910. The Broadway–Seventh Avenue Line opened south of Times Square–42nd Street in 1918, and the original line was divided into an H-shaped system. The original subway north of Times Square thus became part of the Broadway–Seventh Avenue Line, and all local trains were sent to South Ferry.

In December 1922, the Transit Commission approved a $3 million project to lengthen platforms at 14 local stations along the original IRT line, including 66th Street and five other stations on the Broadway–Seventh Avenue Line. Platform lengths at these stations would be increased from 225 to 436 ft. The commission postponed the platform-lengthening project in September 1923, at which point the cost had risen to $5.6 million.

1940s to 1970s
The city government took over the IRT's operations on June 12, 1940. The IRT routes were given numbered designations in 1948 with the introduction of "R-type" rolling stock, which contained rollsigns with numbered designations for each service. The Broadway route to 242nd Street became known as the 1 and the Lenox Avenue route as the 3.

The original IRT stations north of Times Square could barely fit local trains of five or six cars depending on the configuration of the trains. Stations on the line from 50th Street to 96th Street, including this station but excluding the 91st Street station, had their platforms extended in the 1950s to accommodate ten-car trains as part of a $100 million rebuilding program (equivalent to $ million in ). The joint venture of Rosoff Bros Inc. and Joseph Meltzer Associates Inc. received a contract to remodel the 50th Street, 59th Street, and 66th Street stations. in February 1957. The platform extensions at the local stations were completed by early 1958. Once the project was completed, all 1 trains became local and all 2 and 3 trains became express, and eight-car local trains began operation. Increased and lengthened service was implemented during peak hours on the 1 train on February 6, 1959. Due to the lengthening of the platforms at 86th Street and 96th Street, the intermediate 91st Street station was closed on February 2, 1959, because it was too close to the other two stations.

On November 29, 1962, a new entrance at the station opened, leading to the lobby of the Philharmonic (now David Geffen) Hall of Lincoln Center. The entrance led from the downtown platform of the station and also provided access to the uptown platform by an underpass at the station's south end. This entrance was built as part of a $10.2 million underground complex by the New York City Parks Department for the Philharmonic Hall. The project was partially funded by a Federal grant, and the work was contracted out to Slattery Construction Company.

1980s to present
In 1981, the MTA announced the creation of its Culture Stations program to install public art in the subway. The Culture Stations program was started to deter graffiti, and was inspired by legislation in the New York City Council that mandated that 1% of the cost of constructing public buildings be used for art. The program was modeled on the Louvre – Rivoli station on the Paris Métro, which featured reproductions of the artwork on display in the Louvre. Four stations, namely 66th Street, Astor Place, Eastern Parkway–Brooklyn Museum, and Fifth Avenue/53rd Street, were selected for the program due to their proximity to cultural institutions. These would be among the first stations in the MTA's new station refurbishment program, which began in 1982. Initially, there was funding only for the Astor Place and Fifth Avenue/53rd Street stations. The MTA announced in 1983 that it would allocate funding to renovate the 66th Street station as part of its capital program.

The renovation was supposed to have been partially funded by developer Daniel Brodsky, who had contributed $1.06 million toward the project in exchange for more floor space at 45 West 67th Street, an apartment building that Brodsky was constructing nearby. Several developers would have contributed additional funds for the project. However, the funds remained unused for several years. The Eastern Parkway and 66th Street stations had still not been renovated by 1986, even though the Astor Place and Fifth Avenue/53rd Street projects had been completed by then. According to New York City Planning Commission chairwoman Sylvia Deutsch, the MTA had chosen to delay the 66th Street project.

In April 1988, the New York City Transit Authority (NYCTA) unveiled plans to speed up service on the Broadway–Seventh Avenue Line through the implementation of a skip-stop service: the 9 train. When skip-stop service started in 1989, it was only implemented north of 137th Street–City College on weekdays, and 66th Street was served by both the 1 and the 9. Skip-stop service ended on May 27, 2005, as a result of a decrease in the number of riders who benefited.

In 1996, the MTA announced that it would renovate the 66th Street station over the next three years starting that September. The station was rebuilt to designs by Lee Harris Pomeroy. As part of the $16 million project, the station would get new floor and wall tiles, new lighting, a new staircase, and would have two elevators installed to make the station compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990. In addition, communication and power systems were upgraded, and control areas were redesigned. The station's original terra cotta mosaics were restored as part of the project, and new "LC" mosaics were installed in a similar design to the originals. As part of the Arts for Transit program, mosaics by Nancy Spero were installed on the platforms. At the time of the renovation, the station had seen a 12 percent increase in ridership over the past few years because of the presence of new apartment buildings and popular businesses nearby.

The 66th Street station received esthetic improvements in early 2024 as part of the MTA's Re-New-Vation program.

Station layout

Like other local stations, 66th Street has four tracks and two side platforms. The station is served by the 1 at all times and by the 2 during late nights; the center express tracks are used by the 2 train during daytime hours and the 3 train at all times. The station is between 72nd Street to the north and 59th Street–Columbus Circle to the south. The platforms were originally 200 ft long, like at other local stations on the original IRT,  but as a result of the 1958–1959 platform extension, became 520 ft long. The 66th Street station is fully wheelchair-accessible, with elevators connecting the street and platforms. There is also a crossunder between the uptown and downtown side platforms at the extreme south end of the station, which is not wheelchair-accessible.

Design
As with other stations built as part of the original IRT, the station was constructed using a cut-and-cover method. The tunnel is covered by a U-shaped trough that contains utility pipes and wires. The bottom of this trough contains a foundation of concrete no less than 4 in thick. Each platform consists of 3 in concrete slabs, beneath which are drainage basins. The original platforms contain circular, cast-iron Doric-style columns spaced every 15 ft, while the platform extensions contain I-beam columns. Additional columns between the tracks, spaced every 5 ft, support the jack-arched concrete station roofs. There is a 1 in gap between the trough wall and the platform walls, which are made of 4 in-thick brick covered over by a tiled finish.

The decorative scheme consists of yellow faience station-name tablets, buff tile bands, a yellow faience cornice, and blue faience plaques. The mosaic tiles at all original IRT stations were manufactured by the American Encaustic Tile Company, which subcontracted the installations at each station. The original decorative work was performed by tile contractor Manhattan Glass Tile Company and faience contractor Grueby Faience Company. As part of the station's 1990s renovation, plaques with the initials "L" and "C", with the number "66" overlaid on them, were installed; they are designed in a style similar to the original mosaics. The ceilings of the original platforms and fare control areas contain plaster molding.

The walls at the platform level contain a mosaic artwork called Artemis, Acrobats, Divas and Dancers, which was designed by local artist Nancy Spero as part of the MTA Arts & Design program. The artwork, installed in 2001, consists of 22 panels that depict a diva in various settings, a reference to the station's location next to Lincoln Center.

Exits
There are two staircases and one elevator on the southeastern corner of Broadway and 66th Street, leading to the northbound platform. Two staircases and one elevator on the southwestern corner of the same intersection lead to the southbound platform. Both sets of entrances and exits lead directly to their respective platform levels. A third set of exits, at the extreme south end of the southbound platform, contains a stair to the southwestern corner of Columbus Avenue and 65th Street, as well as a passageway to David Geffen Hall. This section of the station contains the crossunder.

Nearby points of interest
The station provides access to Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts just to the south, with Alice Tully Hall just to the west. All of the Lincoln Center venues are connected by underground concourses near the southern end of the station. Dante Park, upstairs at the south end, is named for the poet Dante Alighieri, whose statue is found there. Richard Tucker Park is nearby, at the north end of Lincoln Square.

A number of schools are nearby as well, including the Fiorello H. LaGuardia High School of Music & Art and Performing Arts and some small schools located in the former Martin Luther King Jr. High School building.

Religion in Trinidad and Tobago

Religion in Trinidad and Tobago, which is a multi-religious country, is classifiable as follows:

According to the 2011 census, the largest religious group was Christianity with 55.2 percent of the population. This included Protestant Christians (with Anglicans, Presbyterians,  Methodists, Evangelicals, Pentecostals,  Shouter or Spiritual Baptists and regular Baptists) as well as  Roman Catholics. Hindus accounted for 18.2 percent, Muslims for 5.0 percent. There was an Afro-Caribbean syncretic faith, the Orisha faith (formerly called Shangos) with 0.9 percent and Rastafaris with 0.3 percent. The "Other Religions" category accounted for 7.0 percent and "None/not shared" for 13.3.

The fastest-growing groups were a host of American-style Evangelical and Fundamentalist churches usually grouped as "Pentecostal" by most Trinidadians. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (known as "Mormons") had also expanded its presence in the country in the 1980s and 1990s. It reported 3,524 members in 9 congregations in 2019.

According to the 2011 Census, 33.4% of the population was Protestant (including 12.0% Pentecostal, 5.7% Anglican, 4.1% Seventh-day Adventist, 2.5% Presbyterian or Congregational, 1.2% Baptist, and 0.1% Methodist), 21.6% Roman Catholic, 18.2% Hindu and 5.0% Muslim. A small number of individuals subscribed to traditional Caribbean religions with African roots, such as the Spiritual Baptists (sometimes called Shouter Baptists) (5.7%); and the Orisha (0.1%). Smaller groups included Jehovah's Witnesses (1.5%) and "unaffiliated" (2.2%). There is also a small Buddhist community.

Afro-Caribbean syncretic groups

 * Spiritual Baptist
 * National Evangelical Spiritual Baptist
 * West Indies Spiritual Sacred Order
 * Royal Priesthood Spiritual Baptist Archdiocese of Trinidad and Tobago and the Western Hemisphere (under the Leadership of the Archbishop & Founder Addelon Braveboy, the Episkopos Bishop of all the Churches of the Royal Priesthood)
 * King of Kings Spiritual Baptist, Faith Ministries International Church of the Royal Priesthood
 * Solomon Healing Temple, Church of the Royal Priesthood.
 * St Francis Divine Healing Temple, Church of the Royal Priesthood
 * St Philomena Mystical Court, Church of the Royal Priesthood
 * Santería
 * Orisha also known as Shango or Ifá
 * Ojubo Orisa Omolu - Ose'tura Ifa Temple of Light.
 * Rastafari

Baháʼí Faith
The Baháʼí Faith in Trinidad and Tobago begins with a mention by `Abdu'l-Bahá, then head of the religion, in 1916 as the Caribbean was among the places Baháʼís should take the religion to. The first Baháʼí to visit came in 1927 while pioneers arrived by 1956 and the first Baháʼí Local Spiritual Assembly was elected in 1957 In 1971 the first Baháʼí National Spiritual Assembly was elected. A count of the community then noted 27 assemblies with Baháʼís living in 77 locations. Since then Baháʼís have participated in several projects for the benefit of the wider community and in 2005/10 various sources report near 1.2% of the country, about 10 –16,000 citizens, are Baháʼís.

Hindu groups

 * Sanatan Dharma Maha Sabha
 * SWAHA
 * Arya Samaj
 * Brahmo Samaj
 * Chinmaya Mission
 * Divine Life Society
 * International Society for Krishna Consciousness

Islamic groups

 * Anjuman Sunnat-ul-Jamaat Association
 * Trinidad Muslim League
 * Tackveeyatul Islamic Association
 * Ahmadiyya Anjuman Isha'at Islam Trinidad and Tobago Inc.
 * Ahmadiyya Muslim Community

 * Sunni-Shia Relations

Jewish groups
Jewish settlement in Trinidad and Tobago dates back to the 17th century when a number of Jewish merchants from Suriname settled in the 1660s, when the island was still under Spanish control. By the 1790s, when it passed into British hands, the community had disappeared from record.

In the 19th century a small number of Sephardi Jewish families from Curaçao settled in Trinidad but left no trace of an organised community. In the late 1930s an estimated six hundred East European Jews settled in Trinidad, mainly Port of Spain, escaping the growth of Nazism in the region. The settlers established synagogues in rented houses in the capital and consecrated a Jewish cemetery. After World War II the majority of Trinidadian Jews migrated to the United States, Israel, and Canada. In 2007 an estimated 55 Jews lived in Trinidad and Tobago.

Seventh-day Adventists
The Caribbean Union Conference of the Seventh-day Adventist Church recognizes 620 churches holding a membership of 236, 257 Adventists in Trinidad and Tobago, as of October 3, 2016. Because Seventh-day Adventists consider spiritual well-being to be holistic, there are notable contributions to the healthcare system, such as the Community Hospital of Seventh-day Adventists in Port of Spain, Trinidad. The University of the Southern Caribbean (formerly Caribbean Union College) is a Seventh-day Adventist educational facility providing Christian education to undergraduate and graduate students on the island of Trinidad.

Freedom of religion
The constitution of Trinidad and Tobago establishes the freedom of religion and prohibits religious discrimination. An anti-blasphemy law is part of the legal code but is not enforced.

Religious groups must register with the government in order to be able to perform marriages, sponsor missionaries, or accept tax-exempt donations.

Voluntary religious instruction is available as part of the public school curriculum. The government subsidizes religious private schools affiliated with Christian, Muslim, and Hindu groups.

In 2017, Trinidad and Tobago set a uniform minimum marriage age of 18 years. Previously, different age limits were enforced for different religious groups. While many organizations (and particularly religiously affiliated women's organizations) welcomed this change, some religious organizations such as the orthodox Hindu organization Sanatan Dharma Maha Sabha stated that they would oppose the law on the grounds that it infringes on religious freedom and their view that girls 16-17 who are pregnant should be able to marry the father of their child.

The government of Trinidad and Tobago hosts the Inter-Religious Organization, an interfaith coordinating committee with representatives from 25 religious groups, including Christian, Muslim, Hindu, Orisha and Baháʼí groups. Chaplains from the various religious denominations present in Trinidad Tobago are able to provide religious services to inmates in prisons.

The Government of Trinidad and Tobago provides substantial subventions to religious groups. In 2003 the government provided TT$ 420,750 to religious groups.

In 2023, the country was scored 4 out of 4 for religious freedom.

Kelly v Sulivan

was the first case heard by the Supreme Court of Canada. The Court answered the simple question of whether a case ruling from the Supreme Court of Judicature of Prince Edward Island could be appealed to a provincial appellate court. On the evidence available the Court found that there was insufficient records to prove that an appellate court for the province was ever created.

The Court before Kelly
The Supreme Court had only just come into existence. On April 8, 1875 the bill creating the court was passed and the court was inaugurated on November 18. The Court's very first sitting was on January 17, but there were no cases to be heard so they adjourned until spring.

That April the Supreme Court was given a reference question from the Senate of Canada (In Re "The Brothers of the Christian Schools in Canada"). The Senate wanted to know if a bill entitled "An Act to incorporate the Brothers of the Christian Schools in Canada" was constitutional and within the authority of the federal government. Only Ritchie, Strong, and Fournier JJ. were in attendance, each only giving a single-sentence judgement.

It was not until June that the Court had its first hearings with the case of Kelly v. Sullivan.

Background
In 1873, Prince Edward Island agreed to join Confederation, and one of the terms of union was that the federal government of Canada agreed to contribute $800,000 towards the purchase of absentee landholdings on the Island. To that end, the Legislative Assembly of Prince Edward Island passed the Land Purchase Act, 1875, which provided a procedure for the compulsory acquisition of all such estates that were larger than 500 acre, other than untenanted estates less than 1000 acre. Awards in disputes relating to land values were made by the Commissioners of Public Lands, whose decisions could be appealed to the Supreme Court of Prince Edward Island under s. 45 of the Act within 30 days of the award. The same section provided that the Court could remit the award back to the Commissioners; otherwise, such awards were declared to be "binding, final and conclusive on all parties."

In 1875, the Commissioner of Public Lands applied to acquire the lands of Charlotte Antonia Sulivan, and the resulting award determined that she was entitled to be paid $81,500. Sulivan, through her agent George Wastie DeBlois, appealed on the basis that the awards did not describe the lands in sufficient detail, that proper legal procedures had not been followed, and that the British North America Act did not permit such legislation as the Land Purchase Act. The provincial Supreme Court agreed in January 1876.

The Province, through Francis Kelly, its Commissioner for Public Lands, lodged an appeal to the newly created Supreme Court of Canada, on the basis that:

 * 1) The SCC had jurisdiction to hear the appeal
 * 2) The award was final under s. 45 of the Act
 * 3) There was no uncertainty to the award, and the Court had no jurisdiction to declare it bad

In response, Sulivan's side contended:

 * 1) No appeal lay to the SCC, as PEI legislation recognized the existence of a Court of Error and Appeal composed of the Lieutenant-Governor in Council
 * 2) The provincial Court did possess jurisdiction to act as it did, under s. 32 of the Act
 * 3) The Commissioners had no jurisdiction in this cause, and therefore their award was bad and should be set aside
 * 4) The award is not final and it is uncertain, and it also exceeded its jurisdiction as it dealt with all of Sulivan's lands, and not just those in excess of 500 acres

Ruling
The Court was unanimous in its ruling, although each justice issued a separate opinion. In the most comprehensive ruling, Richards CJ declared:

 * 1) The provincial Court was the court of last resort for the purposes of appeal to the SCC, as no other court of error or appeal was shown to have been in operation before Confederation
 * 2) The Act contemplated the acquisition of total estates, and not just lands in excess of 500 acres
 * 3) The provincial Court's powers were expressly circumscribed by s. 45 of the Act

Talk:John Heartfield

Untitled
I have removed what might be considered "weasel words" from article, although as a close family member of the artist, I am aware of his thoughts and beliefs. — Preceding unsigned comment added by HeartfieldGrandson (talk • contribs) 23:56, 12 March 2012 (UTC)

I am confused by the COI now appearing at the top of the John Heartfield Wikipedia Page. It is true that I'm his grandson. It is also true that I've served as a professor at New York University and have written about my grandfather for The Encyclopedia of German American Relations, an academic publication. I found the original John Heartfield Page to be scarce and, in some areas, inaccurate. I attempted to add clear, accurate, and unbiased information that is generally accepted by art historians who have studied Heartfield. I will continue to add to the Wikipedia Page, limiting my additions to finite dates, facts, and events. John Joseph Heartfield

Hi. I have corrected some grammatical errors in the article. I wish that the part about his life can be made in "timeline" which might be much easier to see. --Nancyinthehouse (talk) 18:12, 10 April 2013 (UTC)

Musical references
Heartfield's Self Portrait is on the cover of Readymades (2002) by Chumbawamba and one of his works is used on System of a Down's eponymous debut (1998).

His art is also referenced quite frequently by Slovenian group Laibach ( I think they also did a song called Herzfeld ) Also the Prodigy had something similar to that "Iron has always made a nation strong, butter and lard have only made the people fat." quote in their "Fat Of The Land" album..though I don't know if this would be referencing Heartfield or Goering (which would have been a more recognisable figure?) 213.202.164.43 20:44, 5 January 2006 (UTC)
 * "Guns will make us strong, butter will only make us fat." - Quoted from Hermann Göring. bloodofox: 06:06, 10 February 2006 (UTC)

 * Should the musical references be in the main body of the article? If someone wants info on John Hearfield, do they really care about Siouxie and the Banshees? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.97.110.64 (talk) 04:45, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

 * Unlikely, not in main body, but such info could be justified in making up a section called Influences in modern culture or something. M URGH   disc.  11:17, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

Cabbage Head is also used as the cover of (the first print of) Front Line Assembly's Total Terror I (Image). ~AHadley 10:03, 7 February 2012 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by A - J - Hadley (talk • contribs)

The video of the song Megalomaniac (Incubus song) was inspired by Heartfield`s photo-collages. Written in: Keazor, Henry & Wübbena, Thorsten (2005): Video thrills the Radio Star. Musikvideos: Geschichte, Themen, Analysen. Bielefeld: transcript, Page 364-365. (GERMAN) So this should be added to the article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.55.65.171 (talk) 12:34, 27 October 2014 (UTC)

Name
The name "Helmut Herzfeld" is not correct - his real name is: "Wieland Herzfelde".

THE STATEMENT ABOVE IS INCORRECT. "Helmut Herzfeld" changed his name to "John Heartfield" His brother, "Wieland Herzfeld" changed his name to "Wieland Herzfelde" (see below)
 * Source? John Heartfield's paternal grandson, John Joseph Heartfield HeartfieldGrandson (talk) 20:28, 20 March 2012 (UTC)

 * Source? The authoritative Union List of Artist Names makes no mention of "Wieland", only variations of "Helmut" and "Helmuth" (citing Yale Dictionary of Art and Artists and the Grove Dictionary of Art). The Library of Congress Authorities site also has "Herzfeld, Helmut". Pinkville 16:11, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

 * To clarify this (albeit older) statement: Wieland Herzfelde (born Herzfeld) is not the same person, but John Heartfield's younger

brother. 90.135.114.73 (talk) 07:45, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

Library of congress cataloguing uses the author or artist's real name; Wikipedia policy is to use the name a person is commonly known by. e.g. Mark Twain, not Samuel Clemens. -Dhodges (talk) 19:30, 13 January 2011 (UTC)

images
Can we please find an image of him that we can include in this article? Kingturtle (talk) 20:37, 24 February 2009 (UTC) Much more--could we have more images of his work. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.1.137.152 (talk) 17:56, 25 May 2012 (UTC)

I have images of JH,family members, collegues and his work all published in my copy of Herzfelde, Wieland. "John Heartfield, Leben und Werk, Dargestellt von seinem Bruder". VEB VERLAG DER KUNST. DRESDEN. I am new to this computer stuff and uncertain as to how to add material here as well as the question of the propriety of it's reproduction, though i have used it liberally for my own personal purposes (consistently i believe with JH's political positions) in social media. Advise, and if possible and proper i will add. RedLawrie.

Legacy
I propose changing the "homages" section to "Legacy" and including more information about John J. Heartfield's digital archive, which currently receives only a slightly confusing external link. The archive is rather more important than a few shout-outs and name-checks in pop music. There's an interview with the younger Heartfield at http://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2012/09/hear-s11.html, which can provide additional details on his perspective in setting up the archive. --Nixin06 (talk) 13:02, 15 April 2013 (UTC)

 * Keep, verifiable and there are plenty of legitimate articles here about cars and bikes. However if it's a copyvio it'll need to be re-written, that said the paragraphs seem alright, it's just the list that copyvio right? -- Lochaber 13:25, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. Um...I don't think this is a copyvio. The "specs" are from another (multiple) sites, but specs are specs. I can't locate the introductory paragraphs on any other site. I'm not sure that there is a problem here, and we do indeed have lots of car and bike articles. func (talk) 21:21, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Socket 5

Socket 5 was created for the second generation of Intel P5 Pentium processors operating at speeds from 75 to 133 MHz as well as certain Pentium OverDrive and Pentium MMX processors with core voltage 3.3 V. It superseded the earlier Socket 4. It was released in March 1994. Consisting of 320 pins, this was the first socket to use a staggered pin grid array, or SPGA, which allowed the chip's pins to be spaced closer together than earlier sockets. Socket 5 was replaced by Socket 7 in 1995.
