State crown

A state crown is the working crown worn or used by a monarch on recurring state occasions such as when opening Parliament in Britain, as opposed to the coronation crown with which they would be formally crowned.

Some state crowns might however be used during parts of the coronation ceremony. In isolated cases, individual monarchs sometimes chose to use their state crown instead of the official coronation crown for the crowning, but those cases were exceptions rather than the norm.

Some states where there was no ceremonial coronation only had state crowns, or neither as in Belgium.

British state crowns
The term state crown was particularly used in the Kingdom of England and its successor Kingdom of Great Britain to describe the crowns of Kings Charles II and George I that were worn on occasions such as the State Opening of Parliament. While the crown of Charles no longer exists, the jewel-less frame of the State Crown of George I is still kept among the British Crown Jewels. Because they were more frequently in use, in contrast to a coronation crown which was usually only worn once during each reign, state crowns were repeatedly replaced due to wear and tear.

Because of its age and fragility, the State Crown of George I was replaced in 1838, the new replacement crown was instead called the Imperial State Crown, as was its replacement in 1937. The adjective 'imperial' did not indicate that British sovereigns were emperors, even if rex in regno suo est imperator (the king is emperor within his own realm), but in medieval European tradition crowns with arches were called 'imperial'.

Bela Lugosi's Dead

"Bela Lugosi's Dead" is the debut single by the English post-punk band Bauhaus, released on 6 August 1979 on the Small Wonder label. It is often considered the first gothic rock record.

History
"Bela Lugosi's Dead" was recorded "live in the studio" in a single take during a six-hour session at Beck Studios in Wellingborough on 26 January 1979. It was the first work they recorded together, six weeks after the band had formed. All four band members are credited as writers of the song: vocalist Peter Murphy, guitarist Daniel Ash, drummer Kevin Haskins and bassist David J (as David Haskins). David J has claimed that he wrote the lyrics. Alternate versions of "Bela Lugosi's Dead" also included a portion of the early demo recording of their next single, "Dark Entries".

Four additional songs were also recorded during the same session: "Boys"; "Bite My Hip"; "Some Faces" and the ska-reggae tune "Harry", which was about Deborah Harry, the lead singer of Blondie. Regarding this session, Kevin Haskins said, "There's power pop in there, and ska too. We were trying to find our voice."

Of the songs recorded during that session (aside from "Bela Lugosi's Dead") only "Harry" found an official release; in 1982 as a B-side to the single "Kick in the Eye." A version of "Boys" recorded at Beck Studios later in 1979 was used as a B-side to the original release of the "Bela Lugosi's Dead" single. The remaining tracks, including the original recording of "Boys", remained unreleased until 2018 when The Bela Session was released on vinyl and CD, and made available for digital download by the band. Of the additional tracks, Classic Rock magazine wrote that, "The rest of the material finds a band fumbling for direction, even touching on ska."

Content
The song is over nine minutes long; the vocals start (in the studio version) almost three minutes into the track. The dub-influenced guitar sound was achieved by using partial barre chords and leaving the top E and B strings open.

The song takes its name from the horror film star Bela Lugosi, who is known for his role as the title character in the 1931 film Dracula. After a career decline in his later years, Lugosi died in 1956 at the age of 73.

The sleeve cover art was taken from the 1926 film The Sorrows of Satan, directed by D. W. Griffith.

Releases
"Bela Lugosi's Dead" was released in August 1979, but did not enter the UK charts. The original 12" release was on white vinyl and limited to 5,000 copies. Various other releases are included in the following:

 * Black vinyl with black-on-white sleeve (up to five versions exist, based on comparisons of runout matrices on each of the releases and sleeve format)
 * Blue vinyl with blue-on-white sleeve
 * Clear vinyl with brown-on-white sleeve
 * Green transparent vinyl with green-on-white sleeve
 * Pink vinyl with pink-on-white sleeve
 * Purple transparent vinyl with purple-on-white sleeve
 * Glow-in-the-dark vinyl picture disc with clear plastic sleeve

It had a few releases on CD single:
 * Small Wonder, 1988 (black-on-white cover in J-case; without "Dark Entries (Demo)")
 * Bauhausmusik, 1998 (cover image with black border and red band logo and title on cardboard sleeve)
 * Self-released, 2005 (cover image imposed on moon photo with black background and white band logo on cardboard sleeve; without "Dark Entries (Demo)", but adding "The Dog's a Vapour")

The song was included on the 1998 Bauhaus compilation album Crackle. In 2018, the track was released again on vinyl, CD and digital download as part of The Bela Session, along with four other recordings made during the same session in early 1979, three of which were unreleased up to that point.

Other releases
In the 1983 erotic horror film The Hunger, Bauhaus performed the song during the opening credits and introduction. A 7″ promotional record featuring an edited version of the song was released to theaters playing the film. A live version of the track, released in 1982 and recorded on 24 February 1982 at The Old Vic, London, is found on Press the Eject and Give Me the Tape, and the same version is also found on the band's compilation album Bauhaus 1979–1983. For the 1998 greatest-hits collection Crackle, Beggars Banquet stitched together the "Tomb Raider Version" from outtakes and live recordings. The band never approved it and refers to it instead as the "Frankenstein version".

Legacy
"Bela Lugosi's Dead" is considered the harbinger of gothic rock music and has been immensely influential on contemporary goth culture. In an article by The Guardian titled "Bauhaus invent goth", the newspaper ranked the song number 19 on their list of the 50 key events in indie music history, stating:

""Bela Lugosi's Dead" would have been just another piece of post-punk experimentation had it not been for the lyrics, which depicted the funeral of the Dracula star, with bats swooping and virgin brides marching past his coffin. The effect was so irresistibly theatrical that dozens of bands formed in its wake. So many, in fact, that goth quickly became a very codified musical genre."

The song was ranked #60 in Rolling Stone's "The 100 Greatest Debut Singles of All Time".

"Bela Lugosi's Dead (Undead Is Forever)"

 * Bauhaus bassist David J, in collaboration with Jill Tracy, released "Bela Lugosi's Dead (Undead Is Forever)" on 31 October 2013.

Cover versions

 * Until December covered it as a B-side for their single "Heaven" (1986).
 * The Electric Hellfire Club covered it for the Bauhaus tribute album The Passion of Covers (1996).
 * Opera IX covered it for their album The Black Opera: Symphoniæ Mysteriorum in Laudem Tenebrarum (2000).
 * Sepultura covered it for their album Nation (2001).
 * Nouvelle Vague covered it for their album Bande à part (2006).
 * Chris Cornell covered it during a live performance in 2007.
 * Nine Inch Nails covered it with Peter Murphy during a live performance in 2009.

 * Massive Attack covered it during a live performance in 2013 and 2019.

Crown of Empress Eugénie

The Crown of Empress Eugénie is the consort crown that was made for Eugénie de Montijo, empress consort of Napoleon III, Emperor of the French. Although neither she or her husband had a coronation ceremony, a crown was specially created for her on the occasion of the 1855 Exposition Universelle in Paris. The gold crown is set with diamonds and emeralds in eagle and palmette motifs, and is topped by a monde.

During the same period, a crown was made for Napoleon III, which was known as the Crown of Napoleon III. After her husband was overthrown in 1870, following the Franco-Prussian War, they lived in exile at Chislehurst in England. He died in January 1873, and she died in July 1920.

Most of the French Crown Jewels were sold by the Third Republic in 1885, including the Crown of Napoleon III. However, the Crown of Empress Eugénie was returned to the former empress, who bequeathed it to Princess Marie-Clotilde Bonaparte. It subsequently came up for auction in 1988, after which it was donated by Roberto Polo to the Louvre museum in Paris, where it is currently on display.

Straight Ahead (Pennywise album)

Straight Ahead is the fifth studio album by the American punk rock band Pennywise, released in 1999 via Epitaph Records. It contains the single "Alien."

Release
Straight Ahead was released in June 1999. In October 2000, the band played at Cypress Hill's Smoke Out Festival. The band toured Australia in November 2000; the dates were rescheduled from July 2000 as Lindberg's mother was suffering from cancer. They were supported by Frenzal Rhomb and Game Over.

Critical reception
Ox-Fanzine called the album "fast, direct, accomplished and powerful." CMJ New Music Report wrote that "the inescapable anger highlights, rather than buries, the metallic power riffs and inspired drumming." Phoenix New Times wrote that Straight Ahead is "rooted in West Coast surfer-skater party-punk, with rough-and-tumble melodies on top of briny torrents of guitars."

Pennywise

 * Jim Lindberg - vocals
 * Fletcher Dragge - guitar
 * Randy Bradbury - bass
 * Byron McMackin - drums

Production

 * Darian Rundall - producer, engineer
 * Eddie Schreyer - mastering
 * Jesse Fischer - art direction, layout

Bitting (key)

Bitting is the depth of key cuts on a cylinder key for a pin tumbler lock, often expressed as a number. Bitting also refers to the combination of key cuts on a bit key for a warded lock or lever tumbler lock.

The exact geometry of modern keys is usually described by a code system. The bitting instructs a locksmith how to cut a certain key, to replace a lost key or make an additional copy.

The bitting is usually a series of integers (e.g. 372164) that is usually translated from a key code chart or from a bitting code list to settings on specially designed key machines. In many code systems each digit in the bitting corresponds to a certain location on the key blank where a cut or notch is to be made and also indicates the necessary depth of the cut.

Many lock companies use their own proprietary code system. Depending on the maker, the bitting sequence can be from bow-to-tip (the bow being the larger, handle portion of the key), or can be from tip-to-bow. A smaller number is typically a shallower cut on the key, but not always. Assa bitting codes are reversed, where the higher the digit, the shallower the cut. One American manufacturer, Eagle Lock Company, used letters exclusively for bitting codes.

Angularly bitted
This is a type of key where the individual cuts are designed to engage chisel-pointed pins in high-security locking systems manufactured by Medeco and Emhart. These angled cuts are designed to lift each tumbler to a predetermined height to the shear line and to rotate them to a specific angle to engage a sidebar mechanism (Medeco) (this is also used in Schlage Primus) or to line up an interlocked pin to such a position to where it would allow the plug to rotate (Emhart).

And is there even a single Comedy Central series of the last five years which would get VfD'd? And if not, isn't being a series on Comedy Central sufficent to establish notablility? Two of the three creators already had their own Wikipedia entries. Their previous project (The State) already had an entry. And the featured interview in the July 30, 2003 AV Club of the Onion was dedicated to the Stella stage show, so this thing is notable even without the TV show. --Arcadian 04:33, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Given the status of The State and the Stella show itself, it's definitely notable, even if it folds after an episode.

Actually, I didn't change the dog's name. I did do some formatting updates, but the dog's name was changed by an anonymous user (70.81.175.177) before I ever saw the article. Bearcat 21:59, 29 July 2005 (UTC)

Regarding your contribution to the October Crisis article I would refer you to the following insertion by me on Talk:October Crisis that states:

Removed incorrect statements on the War Measures Act inserted on 20:58, 29 July 2005 Marc paquin that stated:

 * Under the War Measures Act, 497 residents of Quebec who were considered supporters or sympathizers of the FLQ as well as others dubbed radicals (union leaders, teachers, artists, etc...), were subsequently arrested and held according to the law for questioning, without charge, trial or contact with the outside world for up to a 3 weeks in the case of 343 of them. 62 were eventualy charged with various offences although only 20 were found guilty.

I replaced yor incorrect statement with information from the McGill University website  of senior Quebec cabinet Minister during the Crisis time, and McGill University Law Professor, William Tetley. --- Yours sincerely, Marc Allaire 15:40, 4 August 2005 (UTC)

Joual
Marc,

I'm all for having the Joual page, however, as I stated, I don't know that the inclusion of some words that are prevalent across (at least) Eastern France and Swiss-Romande is necessarily a good way to show-case the sociolect. I think that the page has value, but needs further enlargement to better showcase the divergence of Joual from French.

Is this what your Laurentien is based on? Or is it the combination of Joual and Québecois?

Liste des émissions de télé québécoises
Bonjour Marc,

Je comprends très bien le sens de ton commentaire. J'ai moi-même habité dans le monde anglophone pendant 4 ans. Cependant, je n'ai fait qu'ajouter un lien vers la Liste des émissions de télé québécoises et non pas vers la liste des émissions de télé françaises. :-)

-- Mathieugp 14:53, 29 August 2005 (UTC)

 * Non, on ne devrait pas l'ôter. On devrait même en ajouter le plus possible, un vers l'allemand, un vers l'espagnol, un vers le mandarin. Évidement, il faudra attendre que les articles équivalents dans ces langues existent avant de faire ça. Je vois que tu parles un peu d'espagnol : tu pourrais faire la Liste des émissions de télé québécoises dans cette langue? :-)

-- Mathieugp 13:25, 1 September 2005 (UTC)

Je pense qu'on peut garder le lien vers la liste des émissions québécoises si on ajoute aussi des liens vers les émissions d'autres pays (ou régions) francophones. -- Mathieugp 16:32, 4 September 2005 (UTC)

Re:French ensigns
Hi Marc - it didn't click until a couple of minutes ago that it was you (in case you haven't worked it out it's James here :) You're right - I hadn't considered that he was talking about plain ensigns, or that he was drawing a direct analogy to the use. Still, I think the page has enough in it that it can be saved - it just needs a drastic re-working and moving to a different name. I think it is worth mentioning somewhere in Wikipedia that a lot of countries do or did use varieties of flags which are of the same general model as the British ensigns (possibly coincidentally in some cases, but in others probably deliberately). Grutness...  wha?  12:38, 10 October 2005 (UTC)

Well that is a start. You are aware of British Heligoland are you not?

British Heligoland 1814-1890 Flag

http://www.crwflags.com/fotw/flags/de-hg_gb.html

 * ''"During the British period (1814-1890) the canton with the union flag was frequently (usually?) added to the Heligoland tricolor. It was removed in 1890.

 *  Roy Stilling, 15 December 1995

 * Horizontal tricolor green-red-white. In the canton, the British union jack. Heligoland was under British rule 1814-1890.

 *  Norman Martin, 30 May 1998"

In other words, the French and British flags can be argued to have been constructed in the same fashion, and therefore your objection is negated.

The Cambridge School of Weston

The Cambridge School of Weston (also known as CSW or The Cambridge School) is an independent high school in Weston, Massachusetts. Currently, the school has 325 students in grades 9 to 12, with approximately 70% day students and 30% boarding students.

History
The school was founded in 1886 as The Cambridge School for Girls at 20 Mason Street in Cambridge, Massachusetts, by Arthur and Stella Gilman, who had previously helped found Radcliffe College, as a preparatory school for Radcliffe. In 1918, The Cambridge School for Girls merged with the Boston-based Haskell School, and was renamed The Cambridge-Haskell School. Lebanese-born poet Kahlil Gibran, an "intimate friend" of headmistress Mary Haskell, designed a ring for her students depicting a "flower" "growing" in an open "hand".

In 1931, the school was moved 20 mi to its present campus in Weston under the direction of then-head of school John French, became coeducational, and was renamed a final time as The Cambridge School of Weston (CSW). A follower of educational reformer John Dewey, French put in place many of the progressive educational underpinnings that still guide the school, such as a focus on the whole student, experiential learning, community involvement, and a low student-to-faculty ratio. In 1939, the school implemented a form of community self-governance modeled after the traditional New England town meeting. Following Robert's Rules of Order, the entire school community, including students, meet to propose and debate school rules and policies, elect representatives to school committees, and decide on other relevant topics to the community. The Cambridge School Town Meeting continues to be a central part of the school's community governance to the present day.

Academics
The school adopted the Module System, implemented in 1973 by then Head of School Bob Sandoe. The goal of the Module, or "Mod" System, is to provide a framework to allow students to focus on fewer subjects more intensively during a given term. The academic year is divided into six terms (known as modules) of six weeks apiece. A school day consists of four class blocks of 90 minutes each, with some classes spanning several consecutive blocks. Students take up to three academic and one extracurricular class per mod. Some classes, such as those in mathematics or a foreign language, continue for multiple mods. No two students have the same schedule; every student's schedule is unique to themself. Students submit what classes they would like to enroll in, and the faculty works on their schedule to fit their electives into their schedule, along with the required classes each class must participate in.

Tuition
The Cambridge School of Weston's tuition for the 2019–2020 school year is $63,000 for boarding and $50,900 for day students. About 25% of students receive financial aid.

Initiatives
The Cambridge School of Weston finished building a Green building called the Garthwaite Center for Science and Art, with a dedication ceremony and day of environmental education events on October 20, 2007.

Athletics
The Cambridge School of Weston offers the following interscholastic sports: Soccer, Cross country running, Field hockey, Basketball, Baseball, Ultimate, Volleyball, Tennis, and Girls' lacrosse.

Additional fitness courses offered include: Yoga, Rock climbing, Fencing, Bicycling, Weight training, Golf, Table tennis, Dance, and Martial arts.

MTV Presents: The NextGen Xbox Reveiled
It's a real TV program but the proper name of the program is "MTV Presents: The Next Generation Xbox Revealed" (Image:Mtv-xbox-360-unveiling.JPG). All the information about the informercial is located in the Xbox 360's "Marketing" section.

The Elijah Wood article use to link "MTV Presents: The NextGen Xbox Reveiled" but I corrected the name/spelling and link it to the Xbox 360 article.

Frederick McKinley Jones

Frederick McKinley Jones (May 17, 1893 – February 21, 1961) was an American inventor, entrepreneur, engineer, winner of the National Medal of Technology, and an inductee of the National Inventors Hall of Fame. Jones innovated mobile refrigeration technology. Jones received 61 patents, including 40 for refrigeration technology, and also revolutionized the cinema industry by creating a superior sound system for projectors at the time. Jones co-founded Thermo King and also served as a sergeant in World War I. Due to his contributions to refrigeration technology, he is called the "Father of Refrigerated Transportation", and the "King of Cool".

Early life
Jones was born in Covington, Kentucky, on May 17, 1893, to an Irish father and African-American mother. Little is known about his mother who left his life when he was a child. His father, John Jones, was a railroad worker who struggled to raise him on his own. Jones was raised by a Catholic priest, Father Ryan, at a rectory in Cincinnati, Ohio, near Covington. Father Ryan took in Jones by age eight, and two years later John Jones died. Jones left school after 6th grade, at age 11. He went to nearby Cincinnati, Ohio. There he worked odd jobs including a role as a garage cleaning boy. By age 14 Jones was working as an automobile mechanic and was later named garage foreman. Jones was largely self taught.

Mechanical engineer
In 1912, Jones moved to Hallock, Minnesota, where he worked as a mechanic on a 50000 acre farm. The farm was owned by James J. Hill, who was also owner of the Great Northern Railroad. Jones' proximity to Hill and the railroad facilitated his education in electricity and steam locomotive engines. He lived there for over 20 years and would later say in a newspaper article that Hallock was a place "where a man … [was] judged more on his character and ability than on the color of his skin." He was locally known as "Casey" due to a remark by a railroad engineer he met while working at Hill Farm (see also Casey Jones). Jones received his engineering license at age 20. He later upgraded his license to the highest grade.

Army service
In the U.S. Army, Jones took part in World War I in an all-black unit until his mechanical skills were spotted and he was promoted to sergeant working as an electrician and even teaching other soldiers. Jones performed the wiring necessary to equip his camp with electricity, telegraph, and telephone services.

Audiovisual work
After military service with in World War I, Jones returned to Hallock. He worked as a mechanic while learning about electronics. He built a transmitter for the town's first radio station. He also invented a device to combine sound with motion pictures. This attracted the attention of local entrepreneur Joseph A. Numero of Minneapolis, Minnesota. Numero owned a company that manufactured audio equipment called Ultraphone Sound Systems Inc. and was later renamed to Cinema Supplies Inc. He hired Jones in 1927 as an electrical engineer to improve the audio equipment made by his firm. Jones worked on converting silent movie projectors into audiovisual projectors. Jones also patented a ticket dispensing machine for movie theaters.

Refrigeration
Around 1938, following a request by Numero, Jones began designing the Thermo Control Model A automatic truck refrigeration unit. Jones designed the portable air-cooling unit for trucks carrying perishable food to prevent spoilage. The Model A refrigeration equipment was attached to undercarriages of trucks. Chilled air was transported to the inside of the trailer via refrigerant tubing. Because Model A was too heavy, Jones later developed the Model B. The Model B was smaller and lighter, but not durable. In 1941, Jones completed development of the Model C, which was mounted to the front of the truck. It was compact, light, and withstood road travel vibrations. In 1939, Jones filed for a patent for the Model A and received a patent for it on July 12, 1949. Numero sold his movie sound equipment business to RCA and formed a new company in partnership with Jones, the U.S. Thermo Control Company (later the Thermo King Corporation) which became a $3 million business by 1949. Portable cooling units designed by Jones were especially important during World War II, preserving blood, medicine, and food for use at army hospitals and on open battlefields. Model C units were manufactured for military use, following the war the units became available for commercial use.

Other inventions
He also developed a portable x-ray machine. He also developed an early prototype of a snowmobile. It was a "snow machine" that attached skis to the undercarriage of an airplane fuselage and attached a propeller, and a sound track synchroniser (later selling the patent to RCA). A movie-ticket dispenser, and an early radio service for local doctors were also counted among his inventions.

Distinctions and honors
During his life, Jones was awarded 61 patents. Forty were for refrigeration equipment, while others were for devices for theater equipment and devices pertaining to gasoline engines.

 * In 1944, Jones became the first African-American to become a member of the American Society of Refrigeration Engineers.
 * 1953 Merit Award, Phyllis Wheatley Auxiliary, "for outstanding achievements which serve as an inspiration to youth."
 * In 1977, he was posthumously inducted into the Minnesota Inventors Hall of Fame.
 * In 1991, the National Medal of Technology was awarded to Joseph A. Numero and Frederick M. Jones. President George Bush presented the awards posthumously to their widows at a ceremony in the White House Rose Garden. Jones was the first African American to receive the award.
 * In 1996, the Thermo King Model 'C' refrigeration unit, the world's first front-mount refrigeration unit for mobile trucks, was designated an International Mechanical Engineering Landmark by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers. Jones designed and built the prototype from junkyard salvage. The challenges were to build a structural frame and refrigerant tubing connections that would withstand the constant pounding of road vibrations.
 * In 2007, Jones was inducted into the National Inventors Hall of Fame, which honored him as a "Visionary Veteran."
 * In the March 2009 issue of Heavy Duty Truck magazine, editor Tom Berg dubbed Jones "The King of Cool", and wrote that his "technological breakthrough redefined the global marketplace, with cultural reverberations felt from the world's largest cities to its most isolated villages."
 * In 2015, Jones' achievements were recognized by the creators of a Black heritage-themed playground located in Minneapolis. The playground features train-themed equipment with an educational plaque explaining Jones' mobile refrigeration technology.
 * In 2022, several Black-owned breweries honored Jones during Black History Month. They released commemorative beers featuring the likeness of notable figures in Black history, including Jones.

Death
He died of lung cancer at the age of 67 in Minneapolis in 1961, predeceasing his wife Lucille. In an obituary in the Saturday Evening Post it was said "Most engineers start at the bottom of a project and work up, but Fred takes a flying leap to the top of the mountain and then backs down, cutting steps for himself and the rest of us as he goes." Jones continued filing for patents almost up until his death, receiving his last patent in February 1960.

That '80s Show

That '80s Show is an American television sitcom set in 1984 that aired from January 23 to May 29, 2002 on Fox. Even though it had a similar name, show structure, and many of the same writers and production staff, it was not actually a spin-off of That '70s Show. The characters and storylines from the two shows never crossed paths. It was a separate decade-based show created as a result of That '70s Show's popularity at the time. The show was cancelled after 13 episodes.

Development
Freaks and Geeks, a show that aired on NBC during the 1999–2000 television season, was called That '80s Show by fans and critics for its similarities to That '70s Show. When asked about That '70s Show entering the 1980s, after Fox renewed the show for seasons three and four in December 1999, show creator Mark Brazill said "we'll have to change the name to That '80s Show."

That '80s Show began development by August 2001, using the same creative team from That '70s Show. Fox wanted to do a spin-off of That '70s Show, but moved ahead with a show about a different decade. In November 2001, Fox announced That '80s Show would premiere on January 23, 2002, as a midseason replacement. In developing the show, executive producer Linda Wallem said "This show really came out of conversations we had while working on 'That '70s Show.' We were talking about what we had been doing in the '80s and found that we had all been in pretty much the same situation, supporting ourselves with jobs we hated but really burning to be in show business. But, of course, for most people, the '80s were all about going out and getting your share of the money pie, so our characters are people who constantly are being pulled between their artistic dreams and commercial reality." Wallem, along with Mark Brazill and Terry Turner, created the show, and other executive producers included Marcy Carsey and Tom Werner. The costume designer, Melina Root, who also worked on That '70s Show, researched fashion magazines, merchandising catalogs, and yearbooks from the 1980s to find ideas for clothing the characters on the show could wear.

Stand-up comic Margaret Smith was cast for That '80s Show in October 2001. Fox announced the rest of the cast (Chyler Leigh, Brittany Daniel, Glenn Howerton, Tinsley Grimes, and Eddie Shin) in December 2001. The show cast relatively unknown actors similarly to the cast of That '70s Show. Daniel, who portrayed Sophia in That '80s Show, had a guest starring role on That '70s Show in an episode that aired the day before That 80s Show premiered. She played Eric Forman's cousin Penny in the episode "Eric's Hot Cousin". Howerton and Grimes grew up in Montgomery, Alabama, at the same time, but had not met before being cast as siblings on the show.

It debuted January 23, 2002, and the final episode aired May 29, 2002. Its regular time slot was on Wednesday nights at 8:00/7:00 Central on the Fox Network.

Plot
The show is set in 1984 and revolves around the lives of a group of friends in their 20s living in San Diego, California. The show follows the lives of struggling musician Corey Howard and his associates, friends, and family. His working (and eventual romantic) relationship with June Tuesday is also a focal point, and becomes the main anchor of the show after a few episodes. Later episodes focused on the culture clash between Corey and June's lifestyles. Various tidbits of 1980s culture and music are sprinkled in throughout each episode. As with That '70s Show, several celebrities from the decade guest starred in several episodes.

Episodes took place at different locations throughout the day. Scenes would take place at Club Berlin, a dance club; Permanent Record, the record store where Corey and June worked; Videx, an office owned by R. T.; and the family home, along with the occasional car trip.

The theme song is a 15-second snippet of "Eighties" by Killing Joke, with the opening credit sequence (and screens used to transition from scene to scene) consisting of a hand flipping through a row of vinyl records, each with artwork of a cast member's face and name.

Main

 * Glenn Howerton as Corey Howard, a struggling musician who lives at home with his sister Katie and his father R. T. Howard, works at Permanent Record, a record store. He also dated Sophia before the start of the series, as they are recently broken up in the pilot.
 * Tinsley Grimes as Katie Howard, Corey's sister. A Valley Girl and college drop-out turned environmentalist.
 * Chyler Leigh as June Tuesday, a punk rock musician who also works at Permanent Record. Leigh said it took about 35 minutes and "nine pounds of hairspray" for her hair stylist to create Tuesday's Liberty spikes hair for each day of filming.
 * Eddie Shin as Roger Park, Corey's best friend, a struggling used-car dealer and wannabe yuppie like R. T. He rents a room above the Howard family garage, admires Ronald Reagan and is a dance enthusiast.
 * Brittany Daniel as Sophia, Corey's bisexual ex-girlfriend who has an unrequited crush on Corey's sister Katie.
 * Margaret Smith as Margaret, an ex-Hippie/Rock Groupie and owner of Permanent Record, the record store where Corey and Tuesday work.
 * Geoff Pierson as R. T. Howard, Corey and Katie's divorced father and owner of "Videx", a small company that produces and sells personal fitness equipment such as the Butt Luge and the Gut Wacker.

Critical
The first episode of That '80s Show received generally negative reviews from television critics. Eric Kohanik of The Calgary Herald lamented that a time period needs to be at least 20 years away to laugh at it, and That '80s Show was created too soon. David Bianculli from The New York Daily News agreed, yet summed up that the show "isn't that bad." Josh Friedman of The Los Angeles Times concluded that the pilot was reminiscent of a school reunion, that "[t]he nostalgic fun is intermittent". Miki Turner from the Fort Worth Star-Telegram criticized the chemistry of the cast and the effectiveness of the writing. Sonia Mansfield from The San Francisco Examiner said the show "is mildly entertaining with a few funny moments", but pointed out that the humor was being pushed by the setting rather than through its characters. In a more negative review, Peggy Curran from The Montreal Gazette said it is "nowhere near as funny or original as it could have been."

In a retrospective column, Tony Atherton of The Ottawa Citizen explained that one of the reasons That '80s Show failed was because the show featured young adults in the 1980s, and those who experienced that decade in their 20s would be in their 40s when the show aired in 2002. He mused that the show targeted viewers in their early 30s, but made their cast of characters too old.

Ratings
The premiere episode of That '80s Show on January 23, 2002, garnered 11.40 million viewers, placing the show 41st overall for television programs during the week.

For the 2001–02 television season, That '80s Show was ranked 104th in average viewership by Nielsen and received 6.8 million average viewers per episode.

Cancellation
That '80s Show failed to gain a wide audience during its original run, and low ratings eventually caused Fox to cancel it after 13 episodes on May 17, 2002, before the final episode aired on May 29.

Cello Concerto No. 1 (Haydn)

The Cello Concerto No. 1 in C major, Hob. VIIb/1, by Joseph Haydn was composed around 1761-65 for longtime friend Joseph Franz Weigl, then the principal cellist of Prince Nicolaus's Esterházy Orchestra.

The work was presumed lost until 1961, when musicologist Oldřich Pulkert discovered a copy of the score at the Prague National Museum. Though some doubts have been raised about the authenticity of the work, most experts believe that Haydn did compose this concerto.

Background
Although the full work was discovered in 1961, Haydn had written the beginning of the principal theme of the first movement in his draft catalogue of 1765. This early work, nearly contemporaneous with symphonies 6, 7 and 8 and predating his D major cello concerto by around twenty years, already shows Haydn as a master of instrumental writing. The solo cello part is thoroughly idiomatic. The concerto reflects the ritornello form of the baroque concerto as well as the emerging structure of the sonata-allegro form. As in the baroque concerto grosso, the accompanying ensemble is small: strings, two oboes, and two horns. It is possible that Weigl was the only cellist in the Esterházy Orchestra when Haydn composed the concerto, since there is only one cello line in the score, marked alternately “solo” and “tutti.” There is also, however, a basso continuo line, that might have been played by another cellist, or by Haydn himself on the harpsichord, or by a string bass player.

Movements

 * 1) Moderato
 * 2) Adagio
 * 3) Allegro molto

All three movements of this work are written in sonata form, unlike the second concerto, where rondo form is used in the second and third movements. This concerto is more related to Haydn's violin concerti than its follower, holding very close resemblance to the Violin Concerto no. 3 in A major, such as the first movement's etched rhythms, and flowing second themes, a peaceful slow movement, and a brisk finale. Both concerti were composed in the same period of time.

After the orchestral exposition of the first movement, the solo instrument plays the opening theme with full chords that use all four strings. Virtuosity is developed further in the use of rapidly repeating notes, the very high range, and quick contrasts of register. This movement is dominated by a single theme, although the theme itself includes several motives that Haydn develops separately. Near the end, a cadenza is played.

In the slow movement (scored without winds), the cello enters dramatically on a long note, played while the orchestral strings relaunch the opening theme. Two measures later the cello goes on to imitate this melody. Haydn was fond of this gesture: several times in the movement the cello enters on a sustained pitch. This movement, like the first, calls for a cadenza toward the end.

The finale also has the cello enter on a long note, after an extended orchestral introduction. This spirited finale, written in sonata allegro form, represented another chance for Haydn to show what he could do in spinning out a single theme into a series of short motives and a large variety of rapidly changing moods. The virtuosity of the solo instrument is exploited in this movement, especially in passages where the cello alternates rapidly from low to high, so that it seems to be two instruments playing in counterpoint. Haydn uses the sustained-note entrance several times, the final one on a very high, penetrating G.

Influence
Haydn's C Major Cello Concerto has become a staple of the cello repertoire, after its 20th century premiere by Miloš Sádlo and the Czechoslovak Radio Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Sir Charles Mackerras, on 19 May 1962. Many famous artists, including Jacqueline du Pré, Yo-Yo Ma, Julian Lloyd Webber, Pierre Fournier, Truls Mørk, János Starker, Mstislav Rostropovich, Pieter Wispelwey, Heinrich Schiff, Lynn Harrell, Christine Walevska, Sol Gabetta, Maximilian Hornung, Mischa Maisky, Bruno Philippe, Steven Isserlis, Marie-Elisabeth Hecker, Maria Kliegel, Kian Soltani and Sergei Istomin have recorded it, as well as double bassist Bozo Paradzik.

Joel Sheltrown

Joel Sheltrown (born 1947) is an American politician from the state of Michigan. A Democrat, he served in the Michigan House of Representatives, representing the 103rd district, which at the time included all of Iosco, Missaukee, Ogemaw, and Roscommon counties. He was elected on November 2, 2004 to replace outgoing Rep. Dale Sheltrown, his brother. He left office in 2010 due to term limits and is now a member of the national advisory board of Democrats for Life of America.

Biography
Joel Sheltrown is a lifelong resident of northern Michigan's Ogemaw County. He graduated from West Branch High School in 1965 and then attended Western Michigan University and Kirtland Community College.

In 1966, Joel Sheltrown enlisted in the United States Navy and was sent to Vietnam. He achieved the rank of 2nd Class Petty Officer as a Communications Technician with a Top Secret Crypto Clearance. He received an honorable discharge in 1970 following two tours in Viet Nam, and service in the Philippines and West Germany.

Following his wartime military service overseas, Joel Sheltrown returned to West Branch where he managed his father's John Deere dealership. In 1978, he purchased a propane dealership in West Branch. He continued in that business until being elected to the Michigan House of Representatives. Joel Sheltrown is married to Teresa Sheltrown. They have three children: Alison, Nick and Don and two grandchildren.

Political career
Following the traditions of his politically active family from an early age, Joel Sheltrown served as an Ogemaw Township Trustee from 1978–1988 and as the Ogemaw Township Supervisor from 2000–2004. He has also served as the vice president of the Ogemaw County chapter of the Michigan Townships Association.

Sheltrown was elected from the 103rd House District to the Michigan House of Representatives in 2004, and subsequently re-elected in 2006 and 2008. Over the three elections, Sheltrown performed 15 points above the Democratic Party base in the 103rd House District. He is the only Democratic legislative candidate in Michigan history to win a majority of votes in Missaukee County, the second most Republican county in the state.

As a member of the Democratic majority in the Michigan House of Representatives, Sheltrown was appointed to chair the House Tourism, Outdoor Recreation and Natural Resources Committee in 2007 and re-appointed in 2009. Sheltrown focused the committee's attention on economic development by increasing funding for promotion of Michigan's tourism industry through the award winning Pure Michigan campaign and by supporting broader recreational opportunity and access. Joel Sheltrown was the primary sponsor of a new state law allowing All-terrain vehicles to access county roads. He organized a hunters' coalition that won broader inclusion of crossbows in the archery deer hunting season.

Joel Sheltrown is a centrist Democrat. He takes traditionally conservative stands on constitutional issues such as abortion, the second amendment, personal freedoms and parental rights. Joel Sheltrown is a life member of the National Rifle Association. He is a supporter of the labor movement, public education, and a progressive tax structure. He has been an advocate of a hybrid economic model pursuing both an active state role in job creation and job security and a passive role through the elimination of many regulations that hinder business growth.

Sheltrown founded Northeast Michigan Future, a non-profit economic development advocacy coalition of private sector and public sector partners serving 14 counties in Northeast Michigan from 2009 until 2011. Through his legislative efforts and his guidance of NEMF, he secured a 5 million dollar grant from the State of Michigan. The grant was the major financial piece used for construction of a super hangar used to repair and rebuild wide body aircraft in Oscoda, Michigan. The construction of the hangar resulted in significant numbers of aircraft maintenance jobs previously outsourced to Indonesia and Singapore, to be returned to the United States creating 300 high wage jobs in the area.

Post-legislative career
In February 2011, after leaving the House, Sheltrown became Vice President of Governmental Affairs of Elio Motors. He is responsible for any state or federal statutes or regulations affecting the company and any of its suppliers. He provides language and legislative guidance to legislators and regulatory agencies in numerous states. He also lobbies for the elimination of helmet and motorcycle endorsement requirements.

Talk:100th Infantry Battalion (United States)

Only infantry unit in the U.S. Army Reserve?
I know nothing about the 100th Infantry Battalion and darn little about the US Army Reserve. Nonetheless, I find the statement "The 100th Battalion, 442nd Infantry is the only infantry unit in the U.S. Army Reserve" difficult to believe. Is there a word missing? Please educate me. --Richard 04:41, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
 * It is true that most of the Infantry units have been allocated between the Regular Army and the National Guard, but I share your acepticism. I'll do some checking for myself. - SSG Cornelius Seon (Retired) 19:40, 28 May 2007 (UTC)
 * I think I understand now. I think the point is that the 100th Infantry Battalion is the last remaining "pure infantry" unit; that is, it is "infantry" as opposed to "mechanized infantry".  Can anybody confirm this?
 * If I'm right, I'd be interested in knowing why this is true. What's the value of an "infantry" unit that is not mechanized?
 * --Richard 17:44, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

Scratch all of the above. I got it wrong. The distinction being made is "combat" vs. "combat support" and "combat service support". But, the question still remains... why? Why is this one unit the only combat unit in the USAR? My guess is that it is a special dispensation granted to the unit due to its extraordinary distinction for valor in WWII. However, that is pure speculation. If my speculation is on the money, it should definitely be included in this article. Can anybody help?

--Richard 18:00, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

It is true that currently there are few Infantry units in the Army Reserve - The National Guard has the majority of Infantry units NOT in the Regular Army - and there haven't been any "Straight Leg" (Units that walk most everywhere they go) Infantry units in the Army since the days of Vietnam. All Infantry Units today are either Airborne, Air Assault, Mechanized, Stryker, or a combination of all of the above. SSG Cornelius Seon (US Army, Retired) (talk) 00:19, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

The reason is that the unit has elements from American Samoa, and the Northern Marianas that would be NG but since there is no NG in these jurisdictions they are USAR instead.

If you read Maneuver and Firepower (http://www.history.army.mil/books/Lineage/M-F/index.htm), Department of the Army made a decision to put all Combat Arms (artillery, armor, cavalry, infantry) in the National Guard. This is what also killed the Reserve Special Forces units. The 100/442d is an exception due to the unit's war record and the strength of the Hawaiian Congressional delegation. Samoa does have a National guard presence (http://www.samoanewsonline.com/viewstory.php?storyid=10891). The 100/442d is the LAST Infantry unit of any type in the Army Reserve since the 157th, 187th, and 205th Infnatry Brigades (USAR) inactivated in the mid-1990s. The AC/RC (active component & reserve compent)units of First Army are training regiments, not deployable units (although the members can deploy) and do not count as "Infnatry" units. The 100/442d is currently organized under the same IBCT organization as the National Guard and Regular Army Infantry units. The IBCT has replaced the Light, Airborne, and Air Assault organzations.Mikeofv (talk) 16:04, 6 December 2010 (UTC)

Así Es Nuevo México (English: "Such Is New Mexico") is the official Spanish language state song of the U.S. state of New Mexico, composed in a New Mexico music style. The words and music were created by contemporary composer Amadeo Lucero. It was performed with guitar accompaniment to the assembled members of the Legislature by Lieutenant Governor Roberto Mondragón at the opening session in 1971. It was enthusiastically received and promptly adopted as the Spanish-language version of the state song.

Front Matter

 *  (This approach to Wiki-talk (using two templates) is an experiment; i've so far imposed upon a number of colleagues with it, who have responded thru it (even without this 'graph) well enough that i can describe it as "working" (though an otherwise angry one nevertheless described it as "ridiculous"). My hope is that it will slow the growth of my talk page, make my archiving simpler and more timely, and thus make leaving talk for me less burdensome (especially for slow-pipe colleagues) than it has been for too many months. I cordially invite discussion of it (or one-shot comments, from those who prefer).)

''If you add to this discussion, most other participant(s) won't be nearly as quickly aware of that as they would, if you had also edited their respective talk page(s). (A link to the corresponding section of each is at their corresponding "*" below, and your updating the edit count and editing-time-stamp range there also gives that participant further information. But no one other than i has done so yet.) For my own notification, i've started a list that i can check via "Related changes" more often than i am willing to check my Watchlist or "My contributions", tho of course that is still less often than "You have new messages."''

Category:Wikipedia style guidelines

Category:Wikipedia style guidelines is the peak style guide category for pages related to standards for the design and writing of Wikipedia articles. A page may be considered a style guideline if it a) is actually a formal Wikipedia guideline, and b) is intended to help keep the formatting, grammar, and style of Wikipedia's articles consistent.

Wikipedia guidelines (or sections thereof) that are not part of the Manual of Style, but nonetheless contain style advice – for example Citing sources – may be categorized here automatically by using  at the top of the page or section, or by just including the category at the bottom of that section.

Style advice pages by wikiprojects are essays, and are categorized at Category:WikiProject style advice, unless and until they are formally adopted into the MoS as Wikipedia guidelines (see below).

Please post a message at WT:Manual of Style if you are thinking of adding a page to this category. We encourage people to write style advice on new topics, if advice is lacking and disputes have been erupting, but most style issues we need to cover are already covered, and if a new one arises, group efforts work best, not individual essays; most topical style guidelines were developed first as wikiproject style advice essays. If you have created a new topical wikiproject and decided that creating a style guide for articles with its scope is the next step, you are probably mistaken, or Wikipedia would have many hundreds of such pages instead of a few dozen.

New proposals for MoS (and therefore guideline) status should take into account the need to rationalise the category, reducing overlap, duplication, and conflicts between advice in WP's style guides. Proposed style guidelines are in Category:Wikipedia style guideline proposals. Consensus should be demonstrated for promotion to MoS status, through a proposal at Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style or at Village pump/Proposals.

For informal style advice maintained in user space, see Category:User essays on style.

English Translation
My Spanish skills would not give it justice in translation. Anyone volunteer? YourNickname 02:33, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)

I've added a literal translation. Poetry always sounds strange in translation. I encourage someone to add a third column with a poetic, non-literal translation. --141.154.51.48 16:47, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
