LMS 6399 Fury

The London, Midland and Scottish Railway (LMS) No. 6399 Fury was an unsuccessful British experimental express passenger locomotive. The intention was to save fuel by using high-pressure steam, which is thermodynamically more efficient than low-pressure steam.

Overview
Built in Glasgow in 1929 by the North British Locomotive Company (NBL), it was one of a number of steam locomotives built around the world in the search for "Superpower steam". The locomotive was a joint venture between the LMS, with Henry Fowler as chief mechanical engineer (C.M.E.), and The Superheater Company, with the latter having responsibility for constructing the complex, three-stage Schmidt-based boiler. The LMS provided a Royal Scot frame and running gear. However, Carney shows that the frames for Fury were not standard Royal Scot frames, but longer. For the complex boiler, John Brown & Company of Sheffield forged the special nickel-steel alloy high pressure drum and many boiler fittings were imported from Germany but otherwise all manufacture was carried out by NBL.

A 3-cylindered semi-compound locomotive, it had one high-pressure cylinder between the frames (11.5 inch bore) and two larger low-pressure outside cylinders (18 inch bore). The Schmidt steam-raising boiler was a 3-stage unit. The primary generator was a fully sealed ultra-high-pressure circuit working between 1400 –, filled with distilled water that transferred heat from the firebox to the high-pressure drum. This raised high-pressure steam at 900 psi which was taken to power the cylinders and also recirculate pure water. The third steam raising unit was a relatively conventional locomotive fire tube boiler operating at 250 psi heated by combustion gases from the coal fire. The engine was technically an "ultra-high pressure, semi-compound steam locomotive". It was given the LMS number 6399 and then inherited the name Fury from LMS 6138, which had itself been renamed in October 1929.

After short runs during January 1930, a longer test run from Glasgow to Carstairs was scheduled for 10 February 1930. Approaching Carstairs station at slow speed, one of the ultra-high-pressure tubes burst and the escaping steam ejected the coal fire through the fire-hole door, killing Lewis Schofield of the Superheater Company. Subsequently, the burst tube was thoroughly investigated at Sheffield University but no definitive conclusion reached. The boiler was eventually repaired and Fury moved to Derby where a number of running trials were carried out until early 1934, mostly revealing significant shortcomings in performance. Fury's rods and linkages were then removed together with the indicator shelter and test gear when in 1935 it was rebuilt by William Stanier at Crewe Works with a more conventional type 2 boiler becoming 6170 British Legion, the first of the LMS 2 and 2A boilered 4-6-0 locomotives.

Despite the accident, Fury was primarily an economic rather than a technological failure. Although tolerating the trials from Derby, Stanier didn't devote much effort to rectifying the faults Fury displayed, no doubt because of his many other work pressures and development of the LMS Turbomotive. Nevertheless, Fury never earned revenue for the LMS and in fact "Fury must have travelled more miles under tow than under its own steam". As many other experimental locomotives showed, the theoretical benefits of ultra high steam pressure locomotives were hard to realise in practice. Fuel is only one part of the operating costs of a steam locomotive—maintenance is very significant, and introducing extra complications always increased this disproportionally.

In France, the Chemins de fer de Paris à Lyon et à la Méditerranée had bought a Schmidt system 4-8-2 locomotive (no. 241.B.1), and in 1933 this too burst an ultra high pressure tube. The failure was investigated, and it was concluded from both incidents that inadequate water circulation in the ultra high pressure circuit was responsible.

re: salute your shorts question
>>In the section Michael Comes to Camp:Quotes, is it "all the way from Norway" or is it really "all the way from Norwege"?

Hey, sorry for not getting back sooner. That quote is correct. It was supposed to show that Dina is kind of dumb. As far as I know, everything in that episode guide is correct. I actually wrote all the summaries and quotes while watching the show. (I have a lot of time on my hands right now). Although I didn't write those first two.

It's not a good show, but it is my favorite show from my childhood.

1) Eleassar, how did you figure 82.192.47.203 was California-based? Resolving the address to its hostname gives you telemach.net, a Slovenian domain.

Slovenian/Slovene
Yes, I'll comment on the proposal. My first impression, before I stepped back for a while, was that it really needed to be shorter and sharper. I started a second draft, which I have at home, which I think covers the same ground, but hopefully in a more direct way. I'll re-read what I drafted and either post it or just make some comments. Dystopos 13:24, 21 Jun 2005 (UTC)

And this means?
1. Articles with Slovene in the title should be redirected to main articles using Slovenian. (Exception: Articles about organizations that use Slovene)

There is zero sense in having two definitions on the same thing. Slovene is a) another word for Slovenian, b) another word for Ilmen Slavs. The Slovenian disambiguation page covers Slovene as an adjective and noun (i.e. language, nationality, etc). BT2 5 July 2005 16:46 (UTC)

By the way, your "Leave me a message" link still points to Eleassar777.

The Slovenian Convention
I have a few serious issues with the conventions. For example, the idea that if an author initiates an article and employs Slovenian as an adjective, another user preferring Slovene can use it at will in the same article in the form of a noun. I think the mixing of Slovenian and Slovene in such way is unacceptable since it is: unnatural and confusing (the vast majority of -ia nations have only one word for the respective noun and adjective), and very seldom used.

I don't currently have time to address other items in the proposed policy. However, in general, I am in favour of it and appreciate the work and time Dystopos and yourself have put into it. Although I honestly believe Slovene is an undesirable term for Slovenians and should be shunned, I will refrain from replacing Slovene with Slovenian in secondary articles. BT2 6 July 2005 00:27 (UTC)

 * Although it is true that this style is not seen very often, we have several notable sources recommending and/or using it: The New York Times, official Facts About Slovenia booklet, CIA and others and denying this would be a serious violation of NPOV policy. The current conventions say: "Articles that use the terms consistently in this manner should not be changed solely to comply with this guideline." I could also support it if we rephrased "where the original contributor used it consistently in this manner." However, you then have to ask Dystopos too if he agrees yet. -- Eleassar [[Image:Slovenia flag 300.png|20px]] my talk 6 July 2005 08:40 (UTC)

Neither the CIA nor NY Times stick to what they suggest. Both (https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/geos/si.html and http://travel2.nytimes.com/2004/07/15/travel/NYT_ALMANAC_WORLD_SLOVENIA.html?ex=1120795200&en=51ea0a80e47c5b7e&ei=5070&ex=1109480400&en=5a907823dfefce38&ei=5070&n=Top%2FFeatures%2FTravel%2FDestinations%2FEurope%2FSlovenia) interchange Slovenian and Slovene within the same article they say Slovenian is the adjective and Slovene is the noun. The articles are not reliable. The CIA previously listed Slovenia as part of southeastern Europe while including countries east of Slovenia such as Slovakia in Central Europe. They've changed this in recent years. However, the NYT still places Slovenia in southeastern Europe. Michael Manske, a blogger following the NY Times erroneous defintions, was the first publisher of any kind I've come across to consistently stick with employing Slovene as a noun and Slovenian as an adjective. Mind you, contrary to the NY Times (http://travel2.nytimes.com/2004/07/15/travel/NYT_ALMANAC_WORLD_CROATIA.html?ex=1120795200&en=5846190e25c37afd&ei=5070&ex=1120795200&en=51ea0a80e47c5b7e&ei=5070&ex=1109480400&en=5a907823dfefce38&ei=5070&n=Top%2FFeatures%2FTravel%2FDestinations%2FEurope%2FCroatia), Michael chooses to use Croatian as BOTH adjective and noun. Unfortunately, his poor judgment is increasing such silly usage because of his blog's relatively large and impressionable readership. BT2 6 July 2005 10:38 (UTC)

Slovenians as Austrians, Austrians as Slovenians
What do you think of the following?

''In the sixth century, as part of the great Slavic migrations out of the Vistula and Oder basins, the Slovene people crossed the Carpathians into the Danube plain, penetrating as far as the eastern Alps. In the eighth and ninth centuries the lands they inhabited were subject to Bavarian colonization as part of the Ostmark (Eastern March) of the Carolingian Empire. It is probable, although contested, that most current Austrians are German-speaking Slovenes while the Slovenes are Slavophone Austrians. In any case, for 1,000 years, Slovene history was Austrian history. Thus, like the Croats, Christianity came in its western (Roman Catholic) form.''

It comes from the NY Times Almanac 2004! And also the Universal Almanac 1996 (of which I own a copy).

BT2 6 July 2005 10:52 (UTC)

Yes, this theory has some prominent adherents. See The Black Panther Story. -- Eleassar  my talk 6 July 2005 18:17 (UTC)

 * But Dr. Šavli is saying Slovenians and Austrians are the same people, just speaking today a different tongue. The similarities between Slovaks and Slovenians (surnames, language, flag, beautiful girls) have always suggested strongly to me that Austrians are mostly Germanized Slavs (Slovenians/Slovaks). The Almanac, however, is not saying today's Austrians and Slovenians belong historically to the same ethnic unit. BT2 7 July 2005 01:44 (UTC)

I don't understand. The Almanac says that current Austrians are (German-speaking) Slovenes, while the Slovenes are (slavophone) Austrians. Therefore, the same nation, but with a different language. Am I missing something? -- Eleassar  my talk 7 July 2005 07:41 (UTC)

 * Had the Almanac only said today's Austrians are really German-speaking Slovenians, then Slovenians and Austrians are of the same ethnicity. The Almanac is saying we are the opposite of what we think we are (i.e. today's Austrians are German speaking ethnic Slovenians, today's Slovenians are Slav speaking ethnic Austrians--Germanic, Slavic, or otherwise). Maybe they meant Slovenians and Austrians are the same people, but this isn't what was stated. BT2 7 July 2005 13:36 (UTC)

I think they say a=b and b=a, no matter what anyone thinks we or Austrians are. Nevertheless, after a reflection I too find their style of using Slovenian and Slovene odd and it would probably also need a further confirmation to be accepted. None of the authorities recommend it. I wonder where does it originate from. I mean, surely not from Manske's blog, as it is citing CIA and NY Times, not vice versa. If we can find this out, it will help a lot.

Otherwise, I unfortunately won't be able to hold this discussion for some time now, as I am leaving for Portugal. Br well in the meantime and we'll continue later. -- Eleassar  my talk 8 July 2005 15:32 (UTC)

hi,I am PhatRita, also a medical student. You may have seen the drive for an improvement on the state of the preclinical medical sciences have led to the start of the medical COTF. Knowledge seeker agreed that increasing the number and quality of articles is important as well as increasing the organisation of their layout and interlinking. I have recently started the WikiProject Preclinical Medicine project to solve the latter of these problems, as a complement to Knowledge seeker's project. Would you be interested in helping improve the state of the preclinical pages, especially anatomy and physiology? PhatRita 13:05, 27 July 2005 (UTC)

I am interested in the field, in as much as a GP I am trying to sort out a proper monitoring system for patients on such drugs (i.e. is it us or the hospital arranging the routine blood tests?). I presume you are aware of the Disease-modifying antirheumatic drug page, which is useful to distinguish from say anti-eczema or inflammatory bowel disease drugs. If (?when) I get time I was hoping to put in a patient-friend-orientated section or table as to what need monitor and how often, but currently working throug hcontraception pages first - I'll try to look inon this topic from time to time.

 * That's not what the "nosource" tag is for -- the "nosource" tag is for images which one has reasonable grounds to suspect are masquerading under false pretences in a way that will impact on their copyright status, or where the lack of source makes it very difficult to determine whether their claimed copyright status is correct. Neither applies in the case of Image:1988 Summer Olympics logo.png . And in fact, adding a "nosource" template is the first step in a process of getting an image deleted, whereas there seems to be no particular valid reason to delete Image:1988 Summer Olympics logo.png .

I question the point of putting the reqphoto template on bird articles. These articles always get images if there is one in the public domain, or if the species can be photographed in the wild or a zoo.

Massive wikEd speed-up
I have measured the page loading and wikEd program execution times - it turned out that the simple addition of the CSS style rules were responsible for the slow page loading. By replacing the unbelievably slow (but standards-compliant) style.insertRule with style.innerHTML, a massive speed-up of page loading was possible. On my computer it went down from > 5 s to 0.8 s. Please update to version 0.9.27. Cacycle 00:11, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

 * This is really a pleasant news. I have thought of removing wikEd from my .js page already. --Eleassar my talk 21:41, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

Discoglossidae et al.
Hi; you proposed the move of Discoglossidae but the discussion received no answers, which is plausible if not many people have it on the watchlist. May I suggest that you raise a wider issue on e.g. WP:TOL or one of its subprojects, or on Wikipedia talk:Naming conventions (fauna) about applicability of the reference you provided? Us mere mortals may just say mu regarding the correctness of the name. Duja ► 18:26, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

 * I have contacted the TOL subproject on amphibians but have received no answer. After considering the question for some time, I think now the article should retain its current name till the new name gains wider acceptance. --Eleassar my talk 18:58, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

Notable Wikipedian Tagging
I added the tag because I did the translations of the Himnusz and Szozat. These appear originally on my site, and I added them to the artciles, not as original research (which a full, wikipedia-only translation would be), but simply as an editor who found useful information elsewhere. Nonetheless, I have become involved in several discussions about the translations, and felt that I needed to make the potential for conflict of interest clear. The tag does not say anywhere that the notable wikipedian is who the article is about, nor that the article's name is his name; the actual line is "An individual covered in this article...". Both articles have my name in them. The tag seems appropriate amd necessary. Korossyl 17:40, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

Notable residents at Celja
Hello, Eleassar! Pardon the unsolicited message, but I am wondering if you could take a look at Celje.

wikEd 0.9.44
Hi Eleassar,

what do you think about moving the translation page to the English Wikipedia so that I (as an admin) can add the changes directly.

Please make the following changes to the wikEd translation for version 0.9.44:

Change:
 * 'wikEdDiff alt' to 'wikEdDiffPreview alt'
 * 'wikEdDiff title' to 'wikEdDiffPreview title'
 * 'wikEdDiff2 alt' to 'wikEdDiffPreview2 alt'
 * 'wikEdDiff2 title' to 'wikEdDiffPreview2 title'

Add: under // wikEd control buttons, bottom row:

'wikEdDiff alt':              'wikEdDiff', 'wikEdDiff title':            'Toggle automatic improved diff view',

At the bottom of the page add a comma after the last entry, followed by

// from en:User:Cacycle/wikEdDiff.js 'wikEdDiffButtonImg alt': 'wikEdDiff', 'wikEdDiffButton title': 'Show improved diff view', 'wikEdDiffLoading':      '...'

Cities, towns and villages in Slovenia
Hi I've had a chance to look at the settlements in SLovenia today and the vast majority are a shambles and have been subject of a tagging plastering session because they are unreferenced and have multiple issues. Can we make it a project priority to clean up these pages and expand to an acceptable level, particularly the municipalities of Slovenia -thankyou  ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦       $1,000,000? 14:08, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

Well actually there was a reason why I linked to maplandia -it was to retrieve the coordinates for the maps. However I see the slovenian site has the coordinates which I will take note of in future. I didn't ask you about the OVL because to date you seem to have ignored my messages so I gathered I wasn't worth bothering with, or thats a tleast the impression I got. Anyway, thanks for the help  ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦       $1,000,000? 13:39, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

I know so is Murska Sobota and Nova Gorica. The reason I didn't create the one for Maribor earlier was because the landmarks were in slovenian. If you translate the landmarks listed on the Maribor page I can create one  ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦       $1,000,000? 17:19, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

Because you would have to translate them twice. Once on the main page and the second time in the template. If it was translated on the main page I would be able to copy and paste it into the template. I'll create it now  ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦       $1,000,000? 17:28, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

I've created it, just waiting for those translations so I can add the landmarks. ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦      $1,000,000? 17:34, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

Thanks. The cities are the most important in regards to templates. As the municipalities develop and are researched I'm sure there will be many landmarks and people to add to the others like the cities at a later date. By this series eventually the settlements in the country and basic articles should be covered even if they are still stubs. ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦      $1,000,000? 18:01, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

I've added the landmarks to Template:Maribor anyway. ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦      $1,000,000? 18:05, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

Thats good. Can I just check with you a četrti is a city district/neighborhood but what is a skupnost? Is it a local community?. Once you have confirmed it I can remove list list from your talk page and add them to the template, without the slovene attatchments

♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦      $1,000,000? 18:46, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

Cornwallis Code

The Cornwallis Code is a body of legislation enacted in 1793 by the East India Company to improve the governance of its territories in India. The Code was developed under the guidance of Charles, Marquess Cornwallis, who served as Governor of Bengal from 1786 to 1793.

Code contains
The code contained significant provisions governing, policing and judicial and civil administration. Its best known provision was the Permanent Settlement (or the zamindari system), which established a revenue collection scheme that lasted until the 20th century. Beginning with Bengal, the system spread over all of northern India by means of the issue of a series of regulations dated 1 May 1793. On these the government of British India virtually rested until the Charter Act of 1833.

The system, as codified in these regulations, provided that the East India Company's service personnel be divided into three branches:

 * 1) Revenue
 * 2) Judicial
 * 3) Ccommercial.

Private trade was forbidden to the members of the first two branches, and they were instead compensated by a new and generous scale of pay. The land revenue assessment (the major source of revenue) was fixed permanently with zamindars, or hereditary revenue collectors. These native Indians, provided they paid their land taxes punctually, were treated as landowners, but they were deprived of magisterial and police functions, which were discharged by a newly organized government police.

This “permanent settlement” provided the British with an Indian landed class interested in supporting British authority. The local administration was placed in the hands of the revenue collectors of districts. The judiciary was reorganized; there were district judges with magisterial powers responsible to provincial courts in civil cases and to courts of circuit in criminal cases. The law administered was Hindu and Muslim personal law and a modified Muslim criminal code. The higher ranks of the services were restricted to the British, thus depriving the Indians of any responsible office.

As a whole, the system gave social and political stability to Bengal at the price of neglecting the rights of the lesser landholders and undertenants and of excluding Indians from any responsible share in the administration.

Bracknell, Tasmania

Bracknell is a rural locality and town in the local government areas of Meander Valley and Northern Midlands in the Launceston and Central regions of Tasmania. The locality is about 22 km south-east of the town of Westbury. The 2016 census has a population of 459 for the state suburb of Bracknell.

It was established to serve the needs of the forestry industry but is now a centre for the local farming community.

History
The township of Bracknell was surveyed prior to 1859, at which time an auction of town blocks was held, but only became established in the early 1870s. By 1874 there was a church, two school buildings, a hotel and several other buildings. The town's land had formerly been owned by the Church of England. All the streets in Bracknell have been given female names, a curiosity that dates from when the town was laid out. The current hotel has been in operation since 1880, originally as the Enfield Hotel. The post office opened on 1 August 1872.

The first Methodist services in the town were held in a barn around November to December 1863. As the congregation grew a church was needed and so the foundation stone for a Primitive Methodist chapel was laid on 14 October 1864. This first church was later removed so the current building could be constructed on its site. A parsonage was added in 1902, the year of the Methodist union that formed the Methodist Church of Australasia. The present church's foundation stone was laid 4 April 1922 and it was opened the same year at a cost of 1250 pounds. The church became part of the Uniting Church in Australia in 1977 and remains in use. The foundation stone of an Anglican church, St James, was laid December 1931 and the church consecrated April 1932. When opened the church was part of the Church of England parish of Cressy. St James' was later closed and the Diocese of Tasmania sold it in 2011. Bracknell was gazetted as a locality in 1968.

Geography
The Liffey River forms part of the southern boundary, flows through from south-west to north-east, and then forms part of the eastern boundary.

Road infrastructure
Route C511 (Oaks Road) enters from the north and runs south to the town, where it ends. Route C513 (Liffey Road / Bracknell Lane / Louisa Street / Maria Street / Bracknell Road) enters from the north-east, runs west through the town, and then west and south to the south-west corner, where it exits. Route C505 (Cluan Road) starts at an intersection with C513 and runs north-west until it exits. Route C514 (a continuation of Liffey Road) starts at an intersection with C513 and runs south-west until it exits.

Town and agriculture
Bracknell is a rural area with mixed farming enterprises. There are no major businesses in town so people have to travel for employment. The town itself is bounded on the east by the Liffey River. The town has a store, service station, post office, two halls, and a hotel. Its economy is based on mostly dairy, livestock, and poppy (Papaver somniferum) production for the Tasmanian opium poppy industry.

Bracknell primary school has pupils from, grades 1 through 6. The school became an area school in 1950 and in the 1960s educated pupils through to grade 9. A football club was first formed in 1899. The town's Australian rules football club, the Redlegs, began playing sometime after World War I and played in the Esk Football Association and the Esk Deloraine Football Association, winning three grand finals. They joined the Northern Tasmanian Football Association in 1998, and play in the association's first division. Cricket has been played in the town since at least 1883 and a team, as of 2015, plays in the amateur Northern Midlands Cricket Association.

Bracknell is in the Meander Valley Council local government area, the state Division of Lyons, the federal Division of Lyons and the state Legislative Council division of McIntyre.

Heroes (novel)

Heroes is a 1998 novel written by Robert Cormier. The novel is centred on the character Francis Cassavant, a disfigured young man who has just returned to his childhood home of Frenchtown, Massachusetts, from serving in the Second World War in order to take revenge on a man who sexually assaulted his childhood sweetheart. The structure of the novel involves the use of flashbacks to Francis's childhood in Frenchtown and the events in Frenchtown following the war, when Francis returns.

Plot
In 1939, teenager Francis Cassavant and his childhood sweetheart Nicole Renard, as well as most young people in Frenchtown, frequent the 'Wreck Centre', the town's recreation centre, headed by charismatic and well-known local figure Larry LaSalle, who was renowned for transforming the lives of the town's children via sports, crafts and dance lessons.

Larry takes a liking to Francis and Nicole especially: he encourages Francis to take up table tennis, at which Francis excels, winning a tournament. He also encourages Nicole to dance which she excels at, too.

In 1941, Pearl Harbor is bombed, and Larry is one of the first men from Frenchtown to enlist in the forces, becoming a marine. While Larry is absent fighting in the Second World War, Francis and Nicole's relationship blossoms. Larry is regularly featured on the news due to his acts of bravery and valour.

In 1942, Larry returns to Frenchtown on leave, and after a celebration welcoming him, he takes the young people to the Wreck Centre. After further festivities, everyone eventually leaves except Larry, Francis and Nicole. Larry orders Francis to leave so he can 'dance' with Nicole, but she silently begs Francis to stay, sensing something wrong. Francis, not willing to disobey Larry due to him being the reason why his table tennis career had been successful, leaves sheepishly, but not before he hears Larry raping Nicole. Too afraid to do anything, Nicole screams at him after Larry had finished and ends their relationship.

Depressed and suicidal following the incident, Francis enlists in the army and attempts to kill himself by throwing himself onto a grenade, however this backfires and Francis is discharged from the forces with severe facial deformities and a Silver Star medal for his bravery in action. In 1945, he returns to Frenchtown and is not recognised by the locals due to his injuries. He returns with the intention to murder Larry as revenge for what he did to Nicole.

Francis, with a gun, visits the now older and weaker Larry to confront him. Larry attempts to manipulate Francis as he did when he was younger into forgiving him, telling him there was nothing he could do to stop the rape as he was just a child, but Francis replies that Nicole was just a child, too. Larry takes out his own gun and commits suicide.

Francis visits a local school where Nicole is staying - he tells her he understands he can never rekindle their relationship, but Nicole kisses him, telling him she realised he truly could not have helped her. They solemnly say goodbye and go their separate ways.

Themes
The novel has a very complicated outlook on heroism and what defines a hero. Francis is considered to be a hero as his actions during the war saved the lives of others, but the reader is asked to consider if cowardly actions can result in heroic consequences.

The ramifications of war are explored within the text, arguably with the trauma inflicted upon Nicole & Francis by Larry LaSalle representing the way war pays no regard to its effect on people, especially the young.

Religion is also a key theme as Francis is a devoted Catholic. The place of religion within the community of Frenchtown is often emphasised and the values instilled through his Catholic upbringing affects the decisions that Francis makes throughout his life. He also doesn't acknowledge that he is a hero he says that he was just there.

Characters
There are three main characters in the book: There are many other characters in the novel that are important but not as important as Francis, Nicole and Larry:
 * Francis Cassavant: the main protagonist of the book. He narrates the story in a series of flashbacks, after throwing himself on a grenade to supposedly save his fellow soldiers in the war. This disfigures his face badly; his skin being burnt, 'no ears to speak of except for bits of dangling flesh', his teeth being blown out by the explosion but replaced by dentures, his hair has also been described as falling out. Francis's nostrils are often spoken of as the physical disfigurement which plagues him the most, as they often run and have caused him to wear a bandage over them, secured with a pin at the back of his head which makes it difficult for him to clean. Francis tells how his unsightly appearance often shocks and disturbs passers-by, and as a measure to prevent this wears a white, silk aviator's scarf around the lower half of his face given to him by his hospital friend Enrico, and a Red Sox cap lowered down over his face. Whilst at school he met Nicole Renard and instantly fell in love with her, and continues to be so until at the end of the book. Francis is skilled at table-tennis after having been taught by Larry LaSalle at the 'Wreck Center', and in his Wreck Center days won a trophy for winning a series of table-tennis matches, culminating in the winning match against Larry LaSalle, despite LaSalle 'letting him win'. Although Francis did not enlist as he was not of age when the war began, after Nicole Renard was sexually assaulted and he, mentally traumatized, decided to 'kill himself'. He decided against jumping off the chapel top, and instead lied into the army and some time in the war threw himself on top of a grenade. His plan backfired as this did not kill him, merely mutilated him horribly, and his actions were seen as bravery for defending his comrades and he was given a Silver Star medal for outstanding courage. Throughout the book Francis's main mission is to wait for Larry LaSalle to come back to Frenchtown so he can shoot with a gun he carries in his duffel bag in revenge for LaSalle assaulting Nicole. However he leaves that job to Larry who kills himself anyway.
 * Nicole Renard: Nicole moves to Frenchtown from Albany and immediately becomes the subject of Francis's attention. Later she is involved in the events concerning Larry LaSalle, who taught her dancing in the 'Wreck Centre'. At the end of the novel, she returns to Albany in an attempt to escape the traumatic memories of her ordeal with LaSalle. Nicole has clearly moved on from the experience with Larry, when Francis visits near the end of the novel the love between the two has disappeared, something which deeply upsets Francis.
 * Larry LaSalle: LaSalle is the main antagonist of the novel, but during the earlier chapters he is described as a very positive and talented person. He holds classes at the Wreck Centre after his return to Frenchtown and uses his wide range of talents to bring out the best in the young people he works with. He had a very close relationship with Francis and Nicole. and he is the main focus of Francis's mission due to his treatment and abuse of Nicole, but after his encounter with Francis, he ends up committing suicide himself.
 * Arthur Rivier: Another veteran from Frenchtown. He takes Francis to the St Jude Club and buys him a drink. He interacts in a positive way with the other veterans but it later becomes clear that he too is traumatized by his experience at war. He once played baseball for the Frenchtown Tigers and recognizes Francis by the sound of his voice.
 * Mrs Belander: Francis's landlady. She feels sympathy towards Francis, as he is a veteran and is the person who inadvertently reveals that Larry LaSalle has returned to Frenchtown.
 * Joey LeBlanc: Joey and Francis were childhood friends and went to the cinema together. He was a troublesome figure at school as he used to be talkative. He is a confident person and seems to be the antithesis of Francis. He also became a soldier, and is said to have died at Iwo Jima.
 * Enrico Rucelli: Francis met Enrico during his time at war. His experiences are used to show the extent of war as he lost both his legs and his left arm. He has a cheerful attitude despite his injuries but he does feel despair.
 * Dr. Abrams: Doctor to Francis when he was in the war.

Depression
Many of the flashbacks in the novel refer to the Great Depression which was an effect of the Wall Street Crash of 1929. Many families then were poor and underfed. in 1932, Franklin Roosevelt was elected. He began the New Deal, which aimed to solve some of the problems within the country, such as unemployment. One of the schemes was for the government to employ people. This is seen in chapter 5 where Francis talks about people, renovating the 'Wreck Centre', who had been hired under a new municipal program.

Second World War
On 7 December 1941, the Japanese Empire carried out through the attack on Pearl Harbor, a Hawaiian island. The US then came into the Second World War taking them out of the policy of isolationism.

Fighting occurs both in Europe, where Francis is deployed, and in the Pacific. The novel explores the effects of Pearl Harbor on Frenchtown, as the Wreck Centre closes because of Larry's absence. Many men are recruited to the armed forces, and women are given service jobs in the local factories to make products for the war effort.

The GI
The GI Bill is mentioned in the text in regards to the later plans of the veterans, which they discuss in the St Jude Club. Joe LaFontaine speaks about how the government would be willing to pay for his college education and intends to become a teacher. However, the positive outlook is shown to be false, as the veterans are later presented as pessimistic people, especially Arthur Rivier, who struggles to cope with not talking about the war.

Reception
Publishers Weekly called it a “thriller” that “will hold fans from first page to last.” It also said it had "complex characters", the “audience will tensely await the inevitable”, and the author was "at the top of his game." Besides, "what really lurks behind the face of a hero." Heroes won the Young Adult Library Services Association Best Books for Young Adults Award in 1999.

Heroes and 17 other books were challenged by Richard and Alice Ess, founders of the Fairfax County, Virginia group Parents Against Bad Books in Schools. The Complainants requested that no members of the ALA or NEA serve on the reconsideration committees because these organizations “are officially against any attempts at removal of books from any school”. School officials estimated that each challenge cost the school district around $2,600.

Use in education
The novel has been studied in Wales and England by students aged 14 to 16 as part of the GCSE English Literature syllabus under the WJEC examination board.

The Ed and Zed Show

The Ed and Zed Show is a BBC children's television programme which ran for nine episodes between October and December 1970. Episodes were aired on saturdays.

It was presented by the disc jockey Ed Stewart, nicknamed "Stewpot", and was co-hosted by Zed, the "rebel robot". Zed was often cheeky to the sometimes bad-tempered Stewart.

This programme is now of very minor significance, except for one point. While the theme of robots rebelling against their masters is a common one in culture, this is quite possibly the only case where the audience were supposed to be on the robot's side.

One feature of the robot was that at the end of every show except the last, he would overload himself by going into hysteric laughter causing smoke to billow out of his back.

The programme featured excerpts from The Wizard of Oz and the newest Walt Disney films as well as a weekly music guest, including early appearances by Mud and Hot Chocolate. Out of a total of nine episodes that were made, seven still exist (the lost editions are episodes 7 and 8).

Lincoln Market
Lincoln Market was a corner market that was located on the corner of 21st Ave and Quintara and was the go-to market for Abraham Lincoln High School students since it opened in 1940. They were known for their "zesty sauce" used on their turkey sandwiches and long lines during the school lunch periods. Former Lincoln students can recall some of their fondest memories at Lincoln Market. Christinaem5891 (talk) 02:31, 22 November 2023 (UTC)

Command of the sea

Command of the sea (also called control of the sea or sea control) is a naval military concept regarding the strength of a particular navy to a specific naval area it controls. A navy has command of the sea when it is so strong that its rivals cannot attack it directly. This dominance may apply to its surrounding waters (i.e., the littoral) or may extend far into the oceans, meaning the country has a blue-water navy. It is the naval equivalent of air supremacy.

With command of the sea, a country (or alliance) can ensure that its own military and merchant ships can move around at will, while its rivals are forced either to stay in port or to try to evade it. It also enables free use of amphibious operations that can expand ground-based strategic options. The British Royal Navy held command of the sea for most of the period between the 18th to the early 20th centuries, allowing Britain and its allies to trade and to move troops and supplies easily in wartime, while its enemies could not. In the post-World War II period, the United States Navy has had command of the sea.

Few navies can operate as blue-water navies, but "many States are converting green-water navies to blue-water navies and this will increase military use of foreign Exclusive Economic Zones [littoral zone to 200 nautical miles (370 km)] with possible repercussions for the EEZ regime."

National capabilities
Historically, many powers attempted to extend command of the sea into peacetime, imposing taxes or other restrictions on shipping using areas of open sea. For example, Venice claimed the Adriatic Sea, and exacted a heavy toll from vessels navigating its northern waters. Genoa and France each claimed portions of the western Mediterranean Sea. Denmark and Sweden claimed to share the Baltic Sea between them. Spain claimed dominion over the Pacific Ocean and the Gulf of Mexico, and Portugal over the Indian Ocean and all the Atlantic Ocean south of Morocco (Hall, 148-9).

Asymmetric countermeasures
During the age of sail, there were two primary counter measures to another power holding control of the sea: smuggling, and privateering. Smuggling helped to ensure that a country could continue trading (and obtaining food and other vital supplies) even when under blockade, while privateering allowed the weaker power to disrupt the stronger power's trade. As these measures, which are examples of asymmetric warfare, came from non-governmental and sometimes criminal organizations, they fell into disfavor with stronger governments. The 1856 Paris Declaration Respecting Maritime Law banned privateering. That treaty was ratified by relatively few countries, but has become the customary law of the sea.

Historic command of the sea in the era of steam
A more modern countermeasure, similar to privateering, was the use of submarine warfare by Germany during World War I and World War II to attack allied merchant shipping primarily in the Atlantic Ocean, Mediterranean Sea, and Baltic Sea.

Historic command of the sea in the era of naval aviation
During World War II, aircraft also became an effective countermeasure to command of the sea, since ships could not defend themselves well against air attack. The Battle of Britain was largely an attempt by Germany to eliminate the Royal Air Force, so that it would not be able to defend the Royal Navy from air attack and even to allow a maritime invasion of Great Britain proper. The entire Japanese naval strategy during World War II in the Pacific was to acquire command of the sea by largescale destruction of Allied naval power, until their fleet was either destroyed or rendered irrelevant by the Battle of Leyte Gulf giving command of the sea to the Allies.

Modern command of the sea
Advanced navies, with access to surveillance satellites and large-scale submarine detection systems, can rarely be surprised at sea, but cannot be everywhere. Individual ships of advanced navies can be vulnerable at sea (e.g., the USS Stark (FFG-31) hit by an Iraqi aircraft-delivered anti-ship missile while patrolling the Persian Gulf) or in port (e.g., by the suicide attack on the USS Cole (DDG-67).)

"Blue-water" naval capability means that a fleet is able to operate on the "high seas." While traditionally a distinction was made between the coastal brown-water navy, operating in the littoral zone to 200 nautical miles (370 km), and a seagoing blue-water navy, a new term, "green-water navy," has been created by the U.S. Navy, which refers to the coastal submarines and fast attack boats of many nations, the larger littoral combat corvettes and similar vessels of a substantial number of powers, and amphibious vessels ranging from elderly LSTs to complex S/VTOL carriers and other specialized ships.

In modern warfare blue-water navy implies self-contained force protection from sub-surface, surface and airborne threats and a sustainable logistic reach, allowing a persistent presence at range. In some maritime environments such a defence is given by natural obstacles, such as the Arctic ice shelf.

The US Navy studied a concept for an economically priced ship capable of surface and subsurface sea control with ASW helicopters and STOVL fighters for light air defense but not large enough to be well suited to power projection known as a Sea Control Ship. This small aircraft carrier was not built by the US although a long deck Amphibious assault ship equipped with STOVL fighters and ASW helicopters instead of its primary transport helicopters is operating in a secondary sea control role.

Requirements for modern sea control
During the Falklands War, the British lacked long-range Airborne Warning and Control System (AWACS), which led to ship losses and major damage to others, when the Argentinian attack aircraft came into the view of ship radar at approximately the same time they would fire antiship missiles, and only a short time before they made bombing attacks. A number of navies have learned this lesson. Many navies with STOVL carriers have developed helicopter-mounted AWACS like the British and Spanish Westland Sea King AEW, Italian EH-101 AEW, and the Russian Ka-31 AEW helicopter. Recently the French with a new larger CATOBAR aircraft carrier obtained the US E-2 Hawkeye AWACS aircraft.

An example for the difference between a blue-water navy and a green-water navy: "...The first should be a 'green-water active defense' that would enable the People's Liberation Army Navy to protect China's territorial waters and enforce its sovereignty claims in the Taiwan Strait and the South China Sea. The second phase would be to develop a blue-water navy capable of projecting power into the western Pacific . . . Liu [commander in chief of the PLAN 1982-88 and vice chairman of the Central Military Commission 1989-97] believed that in order to fulfill a blue-water capability, the PLAN had to obtain aircraft carriers . . ." Aircraft carriers are deployed with other specialized vessels in carrier battle groups, providing protection against sub-surface, surface and airborne threats.

As there is no clear definition of a blue-water navy, the status is disputed. Given the importance of naval aviation, the term may be considered to be strongly linked to the maintenance of aircraft carriers capable of operating in the oceans. "In the early 80s there was a bitter and very public battle fought over whether or not to replace Australia's last aircraft carrier, HMAS Melbourne. Senior Royal Australian Navy personnel warned without a carrier, Australia would be vulnerable to all types of threat. One ex-Chief of Navy went so far as to claim that we" (the Australians) "would no longer have a blue-water navy (one capable of operating away from friendly coasts)." Yet although the Royal Thai Navy operates a sea-going carrier, the RTN is not absolutely a "blue-water navy."

Countermeasures to imposed command
While a blue-water navy can project sea control power into another nation's littoral, it remains susceptible to threats from less capable forces. Sustainment and logistics at range yield high costs and there may be a saturation advantage over a deployed force through the use of land-based air or surface-to-surface missile assets (whether on terrain-following or ballistic trajectories), diesel-electric submarines, or asymmetric tactics such as Fast Inshore Attack Craft. An example of this vulnerability was the October 2000 USS Cole bombing in Aden. In response to these threats, the U.S. Navy has developed the Littoral Combat Ship (LCS).
