Stacy Arthur

Stacy Leigh Arthur (née Darland, June 4, 1968 – April 5, 2019) was an American model and actress. She was chosen as Playboy's Playmate of the Month for January, 1991. In addition to her nude pictorial and centerfold in that issue, Arthur was featured on the cover, wearing a pageant-style banner that said "Miss January 1991." She continued working for Playboy, appearing in numerous Playboy videos.

Biography
Stacy Leigh Darland was born in Naperville, Illinois on June 4, 1968.

Arthur was also Mrs. Ohio for the 1990 Mrs. America contest.

Arthur's 36-year-old husband, James Alan Arthur, was the victim of a murder-suicide by a fan named James Lindberg on October 29, 1991. Lindberg shot and killed him on a street in Bellefontaine, Ohio, where the family lived, and then killed himself. The event was the subject of the first episode of the first season of The Playboy Murders titled "All That Glitters" that aired January 30, 2023.

In 1992, Arthur filed a $70 million lawsuit against Playboy and others alleging she was raped and sodomized by three Playboy employees and that inaction by the magazine led to the death of her husband. She claimed two security guards and a butler drugged, then raped and sodomized her on October 6, 1991, at the Playboy Mansion.

Playboy severed its ties with Arthur after she appeared on two nationally televised shows where she publicly declared her rape at the Playboy Mansion. A deputy district attorney opined that there were too many inconsistencies in Arthur's statements while there were no inconsistencies in statements given by the three employees who claimed the sex was consensual. The employees who had engaged in sex with Arthur were fired because they violated company policy by having sex during working hours.

Arthur and her husband, James Arthur, had three children from prior marriages. She died on April 5, 2019, at the age of 50.

Back to school (marketing)

In merchandising, back to school is the period in which students and their parents purchase school supplies and apparel for the upcoming school year. At many department stores, back to school sales are advertised as a time when school supplies, children's, and young adults' clothing goes on sale. Office supplies have also become an important part of back to school sales, with the rise in prominence of personal computers and related equipment in education; traditional supplies such as paper, pens, pencils and binders will often be marked at steep discounts, often as loss leaders to entice shoppers to buy other items in the store. Many states offer tax-free periods (usually about a week) at which time any school supplies and children's clothing purchased does not have sales tax added.

Timing
Back to school period of time usually starts and ends in August before the school year starts in the United States, Europe, and Canada. In Australia and New Zealand, this usually occurs in February, while in Malaysia, this period lasts from November to December. In India, the back to school sales traditionally start in the month of June when schools are about to open. In Japan, which is unusual in that it starts its school year in spring, the back to school sales are traditionally held in March.

In Canada and the United States, back to school shopping is associated with Labor Day, which falls on the first Monday of September. While Labor Day is a widely observed holiday, it has no official celebration. Labor Day has since become symbolic as the unofficial "end of summer". Most schools and colleges begin their school year around this time, so the holiday has become a back to school shopping tradition. Much as Memorial Day and Victoria Day, and Canada Day and Independence Day are associated with summer and patriotic products respectively, and American Thanksgiving has been associated with the impending start of the Christmas shopping season.

Kilmartin Stones

The Kilmartin Stones are a collection of 79 ancient graveslabs (one exception being a side-slab of a tomb chest) at Kilmartin parish church in the village of Kilmartin, Argyll, Scotland, about 30 km due south of Oban (about 46 km by road). The earliest stones date back to the thirteenth or fourteenth centuries, with the most recent ones dated 1707 and 1712.

Description
Originally, the stones would have been laid flat on the ground to cover a grave. After the Reformation, however, many of the stones were moved, and in 1956 they were moved inside a shelter to protect them from the weather. The symbolism of the motifs carved onto the slabs is the subject of much discussion and speculation. Many feature swords or claymores, some alone, others with surrounding designs of twining or interlaced foliage. Several depict armed men. Other motifs include crosses, animals and shears; a comb appears with shears on one stone. It has been suggested that several of the slabs may commemorate Knights Templar but this theory is unproven.

The nearby landscape
Kilmartin Glen is the richest prehistoric landscape in Scotland. Within an area not much over 6 mi long a huge diversity of standing stones, stone circles, carved rocks and ancient tombs can be found. It also has what is believed to be the only 'linear cemetery' in the country, a series of chambered cairns (burial mounds) laid out in a straight line right down the bottom of the glen. The oldest of these is believed to be 6,000 years old.

The reason for such a concentration of these ancient monuments in one small area of the Scottish Highlands is unknown.

Air Ukraine

Air Ukraine (Авіалінії України Avialiniyi Ukrayiny) was a state-owned airline from Ukraine, serving as flag carrier of the country from 1992 to 2002. Headquartered in Kyiv, Air Ukraine operated scheduled passenger and cargo flights mostly on domestic routes or within the Commonwealth of Independent States, but also to global destinations.

History
The Dissolution of the Soviet Union during 1990 and 1991 lead to the split-up of former Soviet carrier Aeroflot in 1992, with Air Ukraine being founded out of the Aeroflot's Kyiv directorate. Soon, other Ukrainian divisions were merged into it to create a national airline.

In December 2002, Air Ukraine was declared to be bankrupt. Attempts to relaunch the company by merging it with Aerosvit Airlines or Ukraine International Airlines failed, and the airline license was finally withdrawn on 23 July 2004.

Fleet
Over the years, Air Ukraine operated the following aircraft types:

Incidents

 * On 5 September 1992, the crew of an Air Ukraine Tupolev Tu-154 (registered CCCP-85269) with 147 people on board had to execute a belly-landing at Boryspil International Airport because the landing gear could not be deployed. The aircraft was damaged beyond repair.
 * On 23 January 1995, another Turbolet (registered UR-67115) was destroyed when it crashed on a frozen lake whilst approaching Provedenia Airport in Russia because of an engine failure. The three crew members on board had been on an empty ferry flight from Anadyr Airport, which was planned to continue onwards to Honduras, to where the aircraft had been sold. There were no fatalities.
 * On 4 April 1995, the pilots of an Air Ukraine Antonov An-26 (registered UR-26049) tried to take off from Palana Airport without having released the brakes. The aircraft thus was not able to get airborne, and overshot the runway, being damaged beyond economical repair. The nine people that had been on the chartered flight to Ust-Pakhachi Airport survived the accident.

Awori's eldest brother, Musa, died of a snake bite in infancy. His older brother, W.W.W. Awori, served on the Legislative Council in the 1950s. His younger brother Aggrey Awori is a politician in Uganda who came third in the presidential elections of 2001. His sister,, is a founder and CEO of the Makini Schools.

In the December 2007 parliamentary election, he lost his parliamentary seat. On 8 January 2008, Kibaki named Kalonzo Musyoka to replace Awori as vice-president and Minister of Home Affairs, and Awori handed over the office on 9 January.

On the eve of his 91st birthday, President Uhuru Kenyatta appointed him the chair of the Sports Funds Board, saying that young people have for far too long been appointed to those positions but failed to stop theft of public funds, so it was time to try an older Kenyan. The President asked Kenyans who thought Uncle Moody was too old for the task to leave him alone.

Philadelphia Convention Hall and Civic Center

The Philadelphia Convention Hall and Civic Center, commonly known simply as the Philadelphia Civic Center, was a convention center complex located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It developed out of a series of buildings dedicated to expanding trade which began with the National Export Exhibition in 1899. The two most significant buildings in the complex were the original main exhibition hall built in 1899, which later housed the Philadelphia Commercial Museum, and the Municipal Auditorium, later called the Convention Hall, which was built in 1931 to the designers of architect Philip H. Johnson. The site was host to national political conventions in 1900, 1936, 1940 and 1948.

Location
The Convention Hall arena was located at 3400 Civic Center Boulevard, on the edge of the campus of the University of Pennsylvania, and just to the southwest of Franklin Field. It was built in 1930 and its highest capacity was approximately 12,000. The building was an Art Deco landmark, notable for its many friezes and other decorative aspects.

1930–1966
Originally known as the Municipal Auditorium, the arena hosted many events, including the 1936 and 1948 Democratic National Conventions, and the 1940 and 1948 Republican National Conventions. Thus the building became known as Convention Hall. Martin Luther King Jr. spoke there, and The Beatles, The Grateful Dead and the Philadelphia Mummers each performed there. The Philadelphia Warriors and Philadelphia 76ers both played many of their games in the arena; the 1960 NBA All-Star Game was played there.

President Lyndon B. Johnson spoke at a campaign appearance on October 29, 1964, at Convention Hall. He appeared at the Hall alongside many notable Philadelphia and Pennsylvania Democratic leaders. Four days later, The Beatles played the venue on September 2, 1964, during their first tour of the United States. Tickets went on sale in May 1964 and sold out within 90 minutes. The Rolling Stones played Convention Hall on May 1, 1965, during their third American tour.

1967–2005
After the Spectrum opened in 1967, the Civic Center continued on as an alternate venue to the larger arena for events requiring less seating or overall space. On February 5, 1970, The Jackson 5 played their first official concert for Motown Records there. The building was later used for Atlantic 10 Conference and Big Five basketball games. Jim Crockett Promotions, under the NWA banner, and later the Ted Turner-owned WCW, also staged professional wrestling there, which included three pay-per-view events: Halloween Havoc in 1989 and 1992 and the 1994 Slamboree event. The Civic Center also hosted the World Hockey Association's Philadelphia Blazers and the minor-league Philadelphia Firebirds hockey teams. The University of Pennsylvania used the building for commencements (due to it being larger than Penn's own basketball arena, the nearby Palestra), as did Drexel University, Temple University, St. Joseph's University, and La Salle University. Pope John Paul II and Nelson Mandela both spoke there.

Convention Hall was torn down in 2005, after more than a decade without a regular tenant. The 1996 Atlantic 10 Men's basketball tournament was the last event ever held there (its convention functions were taken over by the Pennsylvania Convention Center in the city's central business district); prior to this, it also hosted college basketball in the form of the 1986 MEAC men's basketball tournament. Afterwards, it served as a soundstage for movies and the TV series Hack starring David Morse. The championship fight scenes in the 1990 movie Rocky V was shot there.

The Auditorium's M.P. Moller 86-rank pipe organ, built in 1931, was removed just prior to the building's demolition and placed in Pennsylvania Hall in temporary storage. In October 2006 the organ was donated to the University of Oklahoma's American Organ Institute where it was partially installed into the Sharp Hall. The Institute however was disbanded in 2019 and the uninstalled pipework sold.

The last remnant of the Civic Center, Pennsylvania Hall (built in 1978), was imploded on March 4, 2007. The University of Pennsylvania Health System's Perelman Center for Advanced Medicine opened on the site in October 2008.

One limestone frieze that adorned the Civic Center, 5 ft tall and 48 ft long and depicting the history of labor from the days of the ancient Egyptians to the 20th century, was carefully removed before the building was demolished. It was purchased by the Alessi Organization in 2005 and in 2017 was installed outside its new Crossing Shopping Center at East 22nd Street and Route 440 in Bayonne, New Jersey.

The additions and renovations were designed by Legat Architects and executed by VACALA Construction, Inc.

Beginning in 2004, the school ceased comparing the academic achievements of students, nor does it distribute students' class rank to colleges. The elimination of class rank aimed at creating a less stressful competitive academic environment.

The DHS Auditorium is a proscenium style theater that seats 969 persons and is used for assemblies and productions of dance, musical theater, and concerts by soloists and large ensembles. The Auditorium's stage house measures 3200 sqft with a proscenium that is 35 ft wide, 18 ft high and a stage that is 30 ft deep to the cyclorama. The lighting grid is 30 ft high.

In addition, the Auditorium houses a walk-draw white cyclorama, movable tormentors, four travelers, dead-hung teasers and a walk draw black scrim. It just got a facelift so this info may not be accurate

The DHS Studio Theater is a 3000 sqft reconfigurable black box theater. Its various seating configurations can accommodate up to 269 persons in thrust, proscenium, stadium, or arena arrangements. The lighting pipe grid is eighteen feet above the stage floor.

The Deerfield Warriors compete in the Central Suburban League, and counts its in-district sister school Highland Park High School as a longtime rival. The school's teams compete in state championship series tournaments sponsored by the Illinois High School Association (IHSA).

The school sponsors interscholastic sports teams for men and women in basketball, bowling, cross country, golf, gymnastics, soccer, swimming and diving, tennis, track & field, volleyball, and water polo. Men may also compete in baseball, football, and wrestling. Women may compete in badminton and softball.

The 1977 Deerfield boys cross country team is regarded by at least one publication as one of the single greatest prep cross country teams of all-time. Recognized by Marc Bloom's Harrier Report and the National High School Archives (xcnation.com).

While no longer sponsored by the IHSA, the school still has a women's field hockey team. While never sponsored by the IHSA, the school sponsors lacrosse for men and women. Deerfield also sponsors a joint fencing team with Highland Park High School for men and women.

A co-ed ice hockey team also competes against teams from surrounding schools, however it is not sponsored by the school or the IHSA. The team is supported entirely by private donations and players must purchase their own jerseys and equipment. In the 2007–2008 season, the Warriors defeated New Trier High School to win the State title in the White Division by a score of 3–1.

The school has won the following IHSA sponsored state championship tournaments or meets

In 2003, guitarist and singer Alexi Laiho (from the band Sinergy, Children of Bodom) and singer Vesa Jokinen (from the band Klamydia) met by chance at the when they were seated at the same table in the restaurant Telakka in Tampere. They began discussing music, and later they wrote their first songs. They met at Laihos's house, along with drummer and bassist Tonmi Lillman, ex-To/Die/For and Lordi and a band colleague from Sinergy, for their only practice session before those songs were recorded. The band was formed as a side project, for the entertainment of the musicians, and took a carefree approach to their music.

In May 2004, the band released their first EP Keisarinleikkaus, which included four songs. The four songs from the EP are also included in their debut album Turpa Täynnä, which was released in January of the next year. This album also includes a cover version of the song Aika written by the band Klamydia. Kimberley Goss, from the band Sinergy, can be heard on the song Kylähullut. On July 30. 2005 Kylähullut gave their first live performance at the Kuopio Rockcock festival in Kuopio.

The Effect of Gamma Rays on Man-in-the-Moon Marigolds

The Effect of Gamma Rays on Man-in-the-Moon Marigolds is a play written by Paul Zindel, a playwright and science teacher. Zindel received the 1971 Pulitzer Prize for Drama and a New York Drama Critics' Circle Award for the work.

The play centers around a science project for the fair and the family life of the protagonist. It was performed throughout the 20th century and made into a film.

Productions
The play's world premiere happened in the 1964/1965 season at the Alley Theatre in Houston.

The play premiered Off-Broadway at the Mercer Arts Center on April 7, 1970, and closed on May 14, 1972, after 819 performances. Directed by Melvin Bernhardt, the cast featured Swoosie Kurtz (Janice Vickery), Amy Levitt (Ruth), Judith Lowry (Nanny), Pamela Payton-Wright (Tillie), and Sada Thompson (Beatrice).

A touring production produced by Theatre Now and directed by Leland Ball, starring Teresa Wright (Beatrice), Alexandra Stoddart (Tillie), Robin Nolan (Ruth), Helen Ross (Nanny), and Carol Potter (Janice Vickery), toured from October 13, 1972, until February 8, 1973.

The play was presented on Broadway at the Biltmore Theatre, from March 9, 1978 (previews) to March 26, 1978. Directed by A. J. Antoon, the cast included Shelley Winters (Beatrice), Carol Kane (Tillie), Lolly Boroff (Janice Vickery), Isabella Hoopes (Nanny), and Lori Shelle (Ruth).

The Oregon Shakespeare Festival also produced the play in 1978 at its intimate Black Swan theater, directed by William Glover.

Plot
The play revolves around a dysfunctional family consisting of single mother Beatrice and her two daughters, Ruth and Tillie, who try to cope with their abysmal status in life. The play is a lyrical drama, reminiscent of Tennessee Williams' style.

Shy Matilda Hunsdorfer, nicknamed Tillie, prepares an experiment involving marigolds raised from seeds exposed to radioactivity for her science fair. She is, however, constantly thwarted by her mother Beatrice, who is self-centered and abusive, and by her extroverted and unstable sister Ruth, who submits to her mother's will. Over the course of the play, Beatrice constantly tries to stamp out any opportunities Tillie has of succeeding, due to her own lack of success in life. As the play progresses, the paths of the three characters diverge: Ruth has a nervous collapse while attempting to stand up to Beatrice, who, driven to the verge of insanity by her deep-seated enmity, impulsively kills the girls' pet rabbit Peter and wallows in her own perceived insignificance. Tillie meanwhile (much like her project's deformed yet beautiful, hardy marigolds) wins the science fair through sheer perseverance.

Characters

 * Matilda "Tillie" Hunsdorfer: The main protagonist of the play. A quiet and introverted character who is teased at school. She copes with her life by immersing herself in science, hoping to reach a philosophical epiphany. Her untiring quest for her individuality stands in open defiance of her mother's wish for total control over the family. Consequently, she receives the brunt of the abuse. Tillie also owns a rabbit named Peter, given to her by her science teacher, Mr. Goodman.

 * Ruth Hunsdorfer: Tillie's older sister. A brash but confused adolescent, she looks to others for advice, but often gains this insight from Beatrice, who she favors in several ways. On many occasions, she paints Tillie as the crazy one, and suffers from epilepsy and night terrors. She also takes a liking to Tillie's pet rabbit, to the point where she blackmails Tillie for possession of the rabbit by threatening to tell their mother what the adults at the school call her—"Betty the Loon."

 * Beatrice Hunsdorfer: Tillie's and Ruth's mother. A single mother whose life has gone awry, she copes with it through self-loathing, cynicism, and drug abuse, and by verbally (and at times physically) abusing her two daughters, which is not shown in the film. As the play's main antagonist, Beatrice is mainly narcissistic, domineering, and lethally short-tempered, which is only worsened by the drugs. However, her plight is sympathetic, as her past reveals a life spiraling steadily downward from serendipitous circumstances, leading her to self-destruction.  Memorable actresses who played the leading role include Eileen Heckart, Sada Thompson, Shelley Winters, Helena Carroll, Joan Blondell and Joanne Woodward.

 * Mr. Goodman: Tillie's science teacher. He serves as a mentor to Tillie. Mr. Goodman is mentioned on many occasions, but never seen, although the dialogue often implies that he is the only positive role model in Tillie's life.

 * Nanny: An elderly boarder in the Hunsdorfer household. Silent throughout, she does not contribute much beyond being yet another burden to the already stressed-out Beatrice who verbally abuses her as she does her daughters. Veteran actress Judith Lowry played "Nanny" in nearly every production of the play, including TV, Off-Broadway and the movie. During the off-Broadway run, even though her character never spoke any lines in the play, she became a popular guest on The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson, which led to late stardom as a series regular on Phyllis with Cloris Leachman.

 * Mr Frank: Beatrice's father. A deceased vegetable vendor. After his wife (Beatrice's mother) died, he raised Beatrice on his own. Although he had a lowly status, Beatrice holds him in high regard—"He makes up for all the men in the world"—and smiles imagining her daughters meeting him.

 * Janice Vickery: Tillie's rival at the science fair. Her experiment involved boiling the skin off a dead cat so she may use its skeleton. She plans to use a dog in her next science fair project.

Film adaptation
It was adapted for the screen in 1972, directed by Paul Newman and starring his wife Joanne Woodward, daughter Nell Potts, and Roberta Wallach, daughter of Eli Wallach. Woodward won the award for Best Actress at the 1973 Cannes Film Festival.

Awards and nominations
The play won the Pulitzer Prize for Drama for 1971.

Township High School District 113

Township High School District 113 is a school district in Illinois, with its headquarters in Highland Park. It is made up of two high schools and serves Highland Park, Deerfield, Highwood, Bannockburn, and Riverwoods.

It is governed by a 7-member school board. Dr. Bruce Law currently serves as the district's superintendent. The school board president is Jodi Shapira, the vice president is Ken Fishbain, and the secretary is Stacey Meyer. They serve alongside Gayle Byck, Elizabeth Garlovsky, Michael Pearlman, and Dan Struck.

Capital Improvements
April 2011 Referendum In April 2011, the District 113 school board voted to approve a $133M ballot measure for capital improvements. The plan was defeated with 56.5% of voters voting against the plan.

April 2013 Referendum After the defeat of the initial $133M plan, the District held open recruitment for community members to serve on "study groups" that would assist in evaluating the district's needs, and eventually, how to move forward. This culminated in the development of a Long-Range Master Plan, laying out a blueprint for the next several decades. The study groups were made up of a diverse group of community members from the district's feeder towns, and included both members of CARE for 113 (the "vote yes" committee) and Education 1st (the "vote no" committee). The groups presented their findings at a series of community meetings held in 2012. The ballot measure, a referendum for $89M in funds, was passed on April 9, 2013, election with 52.4% of voters approving.

The total cost of the new project is $114M - $25M will come from the district's existing capital improvements operating budget line item over five years, and the remaining $89M will come from a bond issue.

Schools

 * Deerfield High School
 * Highland Park High School

Feeder School Districts

 * Deerfield School District 109

We Are the Pigs

"We Are the Pigs" is the first single from the album Dog Man Star by British band Suede, released on 12 September 1994 through Nude Records.

Background
The single heralded the darker tone that the band had taken for Dog Man Star, which contrasted heavily with their debut album. The unsettling sound on the single was not characteristic of the popular Britpop bands of the time. The departure of guitarist Bernard Butler, ahead of its release, overshadowed the single somewhat. That event, along with the song's music video receiving little airplay, contributed to its relatively poor charting, peaking at No. 18 on the UK Singles Chart and No. 34 in Sweden.

Singer and co-writer Brett Anderson has said he wrote it while he was living in Highgate. It is a song about revolution and the juxtaposition between the middle class lives of Highgate and the council estates of the not too far away Archway. He said: "[It's] a warning to the middle classes that everyone they're keeping under their feet is going to end up crushing their skulls. That was the idea behind it. It's supposed to be quite a violent thing."

The cover art for the single features a still from the cult film Freak Orlando.

Music video
The video for "We Are the Pigs", directed by David and Raphael Vital-Durand, features a grim, Nineteen Eighty-Four–like setting. It was initially banned by some TV stations including MTV for being too violent. The video features burning cars, cross burnings, and masked gangs roaming the streets, committing violent acts. Also notable is the video features the first official public appearance of new guitarist Richard Oakes. The video for the B-side, "Killing of a Flash Boy", a specially commissioned backdrop film for the Dog Man Star tour, produced by Derek Jarman was shot in Nightingale Estate in Hackney.

Reception and legacy
The single was very well received in the British press. David Sinclair of The Times wrote: "Propelled by one of Bernard Butler's finest riff chord sequences and fuelled by the nightmare visions of Brett Anderson's lyric, the song romps home with a glorious chorus that combines old-fashioned sing-a-long appeal with an intriguingly sinister edge." Caroline Sullivan's review in The Guardian was printed the day before the band announced Oakes as their new guitarist. In it she predicted it would be the band's swansong. However, she was very favourable saying: "It's a typically melodramatic affair, Butler's squawking playing counterpointed by Brett Anderson's breastbeating emoting. One of their best." Martin Aston of Music Week wrote: "After the recent departure of guitarist Bernard Butler, Suede have to be at their best. 'We Are the Pigs' is just the ticket, one of their very best, strident, anthemic singles, which neatly sets the tone for the equally stunning second album on October 10."

Pitchfork placed "We Are the Pigs" at No. 169 on their list of the Top 200 Tracks of the 1990s. In 2006, Total Guitar ranked Butler's solo at No. 57 in its list of the "100 Hottest Solos". The B-side "Killing of a Flash Boy" became a staple of Suede's live set list and was included on the B-sides album Sci-Fi Lullabies. In 2014, NME ranked the song at No. 364 on its list of the 500 greatest songs of all time.

Talk:Operation Yellow Ribbon

Comparing 9/11 with present
Please note that the airport in Montreal was Montréal-Dorval International Airport, not "Montréal-Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport" when 9/11 happened. Also, please note that the customs agency was Canada Customs and Revenue Agency, not "Canada Border Services Agency." Jean Chrétien was the prime minister of Canada, not Stephen Harper. This article, as well as the links must reflect what it was when 9/11 happened, even though the links may redirect. -- SNIyer12

 * How many times do I have to mention that both the article and the links must reflect 9/11? Users are changing it. I want this article, as well as the links to reflect what it was when 9/11 happened, even though the links may redirect. -- SNIyer12, 02:32, November 28, 2005 (UTC)

-because it is your own policy, not wikipedia policy. Text uses name at the time, but wikipedia policy is that links should go DIRECTLY to article, not redirect --JimWae 03:32, 28 November 2005 (UTC)

Please do NOT put information that Dorval International Airport is now Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport. That happened in 2004. This article must reflect 9/11. SNIyer12, 02:01, January 23, 2006 (UTC)

Restructure
As a restructuring of the article, how does this sound?

The operation
 * Situation Centre (SitCen)
 * This would include most of the information in the first few paragraphs of the current Operation section.

 * Atlantic flights
 * Most of the information in the present Atlantic Flights section.

 * Pacific flights
 * Most of the information in the present Pacific Flights section.

 * Military involvement
 * Most of the information in the present Incidents Involving the Military section.

 * Reaction
 * Most of the information in the present Release of News section.

Aftermath
 * Totals
 * Most of the information in the present Totals section.

 * Consequences for Canada
 * Most of the information in the present Response and Honours section.

A different name for that last one would be better, but I don't really like "Response and Honours." Other sections were renamed or reordered to make the article easier to follow. Once that is done, the two biggest issues remaining is to just fix up the unity and coherence of the article's contents (the information is there, it just needs to be reworded in some places), and to find some sources for a lot of this information. Ben Babcock 20:41, 26 Jun 2005 (UTC)

 * I think it sounds pretty good. Several sources I have include coverage of 9/11 by both CBC and Global, September 12, 2001 edition of The National Post, and annual reports of airports involved in the operation. Also, please do not change the link or name for Montréal-Dorval International Airport. It was that when 9/11 happened. The same also goes for both Canada Customs and Revenue Agency and the prime minister being Jean Chrétien. We want this article to reflect what it was when 9/11 happened. -- SNIyer12, 13:05, 29 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Also, please note that pilots were also asked to avoid Ottawa Macdonald-Cartier International Airport. It is a major airport in Central Canada. Transport Canada and NavCanada had asked pilots to avoid Toronto, Ottawa, and Montreal as a security measure. -- SNIyer12, 19:55, 2 Jul 2005 (UTC)

I'll be restructing the article also. I had to do so, so that NavCanada's role in the operation could also be included. It is listed here. Info about their role can come from that link. Also, please note that Transport Canada activating its SitCen is not part of the operation, that, as well as NavCanada's role are part of the deployment of emergency measures. -- SNIyer12, 14:56 5 Jul, 2005 (UTC)

 * Good, the article is really comprehensive now. I had to rewrite the NavCanada section, however, because I found that the section itself was taken verbatim from the source you provided.  Doing so without quotes is plagiarism.  I reworded the section to paraphrase the content.  Other than that, I think the article is almost finished (as in, ready to become a closed issue, you can continue working on it as you see fit of course). Ben Babcock 6 July 2005 05:37 (UTC)

NavCanada
You might want to create an article about NavCanada. I would like to have the page to link with NavCanada. -- SNIyer12 6 July 2005 15:37 (UTC)
 * It does have a page, at it's proper name: NAV CANADA. I have set up NavCanada as a redirect. Ben Babcock 8 July 2005 17:11 (UTC)

Pacific flights section
Ben, How come you haven't worked on the Pacific flights section? I would like to know because I may have to work on it. -- SNIyer12 15 July 2005 17:41 (UTC)

I saw recently that an anonymous user (207.61.25.34) added that a handful of trans-Pacific flights were diverted further inland to Calgary. That user must understand that there were also trans-Atlantic flights, mostly bound for destinations on the U.S. west coast, that were diverted to Calgary, the CBC reported. The user must also understand what both Peter Gregg, communications chief for the Greater Toronto Airports Authority (GTAA), which runs Lester B. Pearson International Airport said in a news conference, and DeNeen Brown of The Washington Post reported: Planes landed all over Canada, depending where they were coming from, how much fuel they had, and the nearest airport for diversion. SNIyer12 16:24 26 July 2005 (UTC).

I was in Winnipeg at the time and I saw with my own eyes jets from Korea land, the biggest ones. Winnipeg International Airport does have the ability to take the very biggest airplanes. It has one runway long enough and we did take in the big aircraft incoming from the Pacific. Winnipeg also has a maintenance base that takes in every kind of airplane for full overhauls from all around the world. The story is incorrect when it says that pacific inbound planes could only land in Vancouver due to the runway. It may have been an issue of fuel because Winnipeg is in the centre of the continent but it was not runways. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bjorklund21 (talk • contribs) 14:02, 23 November 2015 (UTC)

Closed issue
Ben, I'm going to make this article a closed issue. I just had to add some of the information concerning the security at the airports, like the RCMP conducting security inspections of the aircraft. SNIyer12 17:08 26 July 2005 (UTC).

Additional additions
There were other additions I have added since it was a closed issue for the Cleanup Taskforce, like the interview with Chrétien by CNN, the scenes on the planes when the news was broken, and passengers saying that they're glad to be safe, and airports receiving telephone calls during the diversion of flights. SNIyer12 17:44 30 July 2005 (UTC)

Where flights landed in Canada
Please do NOT mention in the Pacific flights section that there were trans-Pacific flights that landed in Calgary and Edmonton. There were trans-Atlantic flights that landed at both airports.

I've mentioned this before, users MUST understand what both Peter Gregg, communications chief for the Greater Toronto Airports Authority (GTAA), which runs Lester B. Pearson International Airport said in a news conference, and DeNeen Brown of The Washington Post reported: It's not how many flights an airport received, nor was it where the planes landed. It depended on several factors: where it was coming from, how much fuel it had, and the nearest airport for diversion. NAV CANADA also said the same thing. It is also in the article. SNIyer12 15:10 11 February 2006 (UTC).

 * SNIyer12, I'm not sure I understand your request. Previous to your deletion, the article said:  However, a limited number of trans-Pacific flights flew inland to land at Calgary, Edmonton and Whitehorse. Other flights which were still further out over the ocean at the time were diverted to Anchorage, Alaska, and other airports along the North Pacific route, such as Osaka in Japan.  Is that fact incorrect?

 * Also, why have you archived all the comments in the talk page? Discussions leading up to the current revision are useful for those new to the article (like myself), and the talk page was not very long at all.

 * Just curious. Thanks!  --Ds13 17:04, 17 February 2006 (UTC)

 * Ds13, I ordered that deletion because there were trans-Atlantic flights that landed at both Calgary and Edmonton. This article is about what happened in Canada, in terms of flight diversions. You also have to understand that planes landed all over Canada, depending where they were coming from and how much fuel they had. -- SNIyer12, 01:02, 18 February 2006 (UTC)

Military conflict infobox
I have removed Infobox Military Conflict from this article as an irrelevance. How does this article describe a "military conflict"? Also, listing "Combatants: Canada" is silly: there weren't any "combatants". If anyone objects, please discuss it here before putting it back. --RFBailey 18:39, 15 October 2007 (UTC)

Flights coming from South America
Any idea what happened to flights coming from South America, did they stop in Mexico, Bahamas?? 206.104.165.162 (talk) 21:30, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

Also did many people perhaps rent a car and drive back to the US? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.173.122.171 (talk) 00:03, 12 July 2010 (UTC)

Introduction
The description of "potentially destructive air traffic ...where their destructive potential could be better contained and neutralized" is extremely bizarre. These aircraft were not "potentially destructive", nor was their potential to be "contained and neutralized". Paranoia!

It is truly sad
Demonstrative of the rigidity and patent irrationality of some individual who considers himself or herself to be "contributing" substantively to the project is the recent edit constituted by the removal of a section containing the content of a letter from the U.S. President to the Canadian Prime Minister on the occasion of the tenth anniversary of 9/11. This letter directly spoke to the topic and subject matter of this article; and, there is no article to which the content of the President's letter could possibly be relevant other than the general article on Canada-U.S. bilateral international relations. That point made, the article to which the content of the President's letter is most relevant is this one.

The motivation for the deletion of the section containing the text of the President's letter to the Prime Minister on this occasion and on this subject matter, objectively reasonably, could only have been one of an attempted and irrational vindication of an individual who was more interested in exercising their power of the edit and their own sadly misguided "righteousness" in being able to wield that power, to the extent that they refuse to even recognize the benefits of the extent and diversity comprised in the collectivity of all the individuals who contribute to the project--one who lives in their own little world, attempting essentially to be the sole editor and contributor determining the form and substance of this article (and probably all the articles the form and content of which this person affects) and not supporting the shared goal of maximization of the erudition of this and any article, instead seeking to showcase and grandstand a perverted personal agenda that has neither relevance to, nor avers any benefit of, the project.

This choice on your part, whoever you are, is the product of your patently irrational mind--and I suggest to you that, on the basis of your conduct, and what necessarily must be, and what necessarily cannot be, the motivation for your conduct, you seek psychiatric and psychological counseling immediately, as the power you wielded in deleting the edit, and, even more importantly, in its implications for, and reflection in, your wider interpersonal and interactive existence, does not belong in the hands of an individual who is as disconnected from and unappreciative of the demands of reality as you obviously are. I pity you. Paul63243 (talk) 11:13, 13 November 2011 (UTC)

 * In general, it's better not to include primary source documents in their entirety. There's another project, Wikisource, for that. Wikipedia is a collaborative project that demands we all assume good faith of each other. Condemning the first person to disagree with you as irrational and power-hungry is not the way to collaborate. Suggesting the editor needs psychiartic care who doesn't see the worth of your addition is unhelpful. Tom Harrison Talk 13:52, 13 November 2011 (UTC)

 * The difference is you seem to see the "worth of my addition", but simply have a procedural issue. Reversing a relevant edit--for any reason, justified or not--is necessarily demonstrative of a lack of assumption of good faith. However, rules are not made to be broken, they're made to be prudently applied, which is why there are both legislatures and courts, in order to effectively govern. You're saying the material, although relevant, does not belong here for another, collateral, reason. Great. Sounds good. However, there's always some ostensibly reasonable "justification" for reversing a perfectly good-faith and relevant edit, isn't there?

 * I notice you have not obtained an actual image or transcript of the letter, and posted same on Wikisource and placed a link to it in this article, to highlight my profligate disregard for the rules of procedure here, and to advance the article and the project over my ignorant and flagrant obstruction of it in my contribution of the text of the letter to the wrong database. This is analogous to criticizing and disparaging the choice of endnotes over footnotes in a monograph. Academic freedom and advancement of the project ought to be the highest and least-abrogated rule here. Why is it that the highest and least-abrogated rule here is one of self-edification and personal righteousness--and covering it with a veneer of legitimacy constituted by some objectively-reasonable justification cited?

 * Based on what I have witnessed here, on multiple occasions, the likelihood has been demonstrated that if I went to Wikisource to post a transcript or image of the letter, some other editor there would have some other "objectively-reasonable justification" for disallowing it. I contributed the text of the letter; however, you knew and cited the rule--why have you not posted an actual image or transcript of the letter in the other database? Your (1) knowledge of the content of the letter; and, (2) knowledge of and citation of this rule, created a duty in you--a duty which you have breached.

 * You see, as a consequence of this, your citation of this rule--without applying it remedially, which you have not done, in simply reversing the contribution--has accomplished nothing other than to forestall the advancement of this article and, thereby, that of the project. That is, where the contribution is relevant, as it is here, and the fact of its contribution by me is unacceptable, it becomes incumbent upon you to do more than simply to delete my contribution in order to vindicate the rule. That is the difference between a prudent application of the rule and an elemental recognition of its content. Or, alternatively, the letter is (1) not that long; and (2) has a significance that may not extend much beyond the subject matter here or of that of the more general topic of Canada-U.S. binational international relations. Paul63243 (talk) 16:21, 17 November 2011 (UTC)

more pictures
If possible, could this article include pictures of all planes lined up in canadian airports? I know it's hard to get them but I saw some of them in the airliners.net database and I thought they would show the magnitude of the emergency.

Chicago Horizons

The Chicago Horizons was a member of the original Major Indoor Soccer League (MISL) for only the 1980–81 season. It was the first of two franchises that represented Chicago in the circuit's history. It was the first professional sports team that played its home matches at the Rosemont Horizon, which also inspired the club's nickname. The team colors were orange, yellow, black and red. The head coach was Luis Dabo.

The Horizons, with a 20–20 record, finished tied for third place with the Buffalo Stallions in the Central Division and qualified for the playoffs. After a 4–3 victory in Game One of a First Round best-of-three series with the Wichita Wings, the Horizons lost the last two contests 6–4 and 8–6 and were eliminated from the postseason. Enzo Di Pede won the 'Goalkeeper of the Year' award.

All Horizons games home and away were broadcast on radio with Les Grobstein handling Play by Play and Sam Donnelly the Color.

Even though the Horizons suspended operations following the campaign, the league still wanted to revive the franchise. That ended when Lee Stern, owner of the North American Soccer League's Chicago Sting which played both indoors and outdoors at the time, paid the MISL to discontinue those plans and effectively eliminated the competition in the Chicago market. Stern was bitter about the Horizons, blaming them for costing his Sting much money.

Talk:Federation of the Green Parties of the Americas

Tone
Aside from the non-encyclopedic tone (which I obviously plan to change), it seems that most of what's here really isn't even about the Federation of the Green Parties of the Americas. The Green Party of the US already has its own page -- which makes it clear that the state parties are autonomous and that Green politics are generally local -- so the second two paragraphs seem wholly unnecessary in the context of an article on the federation.

So what I plan to do is to clean up the tone of, Wikify, and slightly expand the first paragraph, while striking the latter two. I'll add a "See Also" section for the Green Parties in the Federation of he Americas, as well as a link to the English section of the Federation's website (which is, I might add, incredibly cumbersome to operate).

If there are any objections, leave them here in the next 18 or so hours; otherwise, I plan to make the said changes tomorrow morning (EST).

Talk:Streetsboro, Ohio

Untitled
To address the problem of categorising former townships which are now cities (such as Streetsboro), I've created the category, "Defunct townships in Ohio". For more details, please see WikiProject Ohio townships. -SwissCelt 19:52, 28 May 2005 (UTC)

Notable Residents from Streetsboro
This category, which is common in articles like these, has been added to encourage others to contribute names and information about notable residents from Streetsboro. Please give it time to work. I will monitor it's progress or lack of it.Godofredo29 (talk) 18:47, 5 April 2009 (UTC)
 * If you find a notable native or resident, please put him/her there. However, having a header like this with absolutely nothing under it is problematic, so please don't restore it without a notable native or resident. Nyttend (talk) 21:35, 5 April 2009 (UTC)

The patrons of the Pierce Streetsboro Library will certainly be the poorer for your action. Such a header is clearly in keeping with the spirit of Wikipedia, inviting its users to supply information that is not available elsewhere. It in no way misinforms or misleads the user. If you need proof of this, look at the article on Portsmouth, Ohio.Godofredo29 (talk) 21:58, 5 April 2009 (UTC)

 * I concur with Nyttend. An empty heading gives the article an unfinished feeling and in no way promotes that section being expanded. Conversely, not having the section hardly prevents one from being created. If notable natives and/or residents can be found and included in a section, by all means, create one and list them (with sources of course). I'm not sure how that adversely affects patrons of Streetsboro's library, nor is it against the "spirit" of Wikipedia. The "spirit" of Wikipedia is creating verifiable, well-written, and encyclopedic articles, not collecting a bunch of random trivia and heresay. Be careful when citing other articles as examples, though. Unless that article has been a featured article, chances are it has a slew of problems of its own. Articles like Cleveland, Ohio, New York City, and Ann Arbor, Michigan have been featured among many others as part of the WP:CITY project and are great examples of how a finished article should and could look. --JonRidinger (talk) 01:11, 6 April 2009 (UTC)

You said: "The 'spirit' of Wikipedia is creating verifiable, well-written, and encyclopedic articles, not collecting a bunch of random trivia and heresay." Clearly, that is not the understanding of many who use and contribute to Wikipedia and who value content over style. And, I'm not sure where either of you assume the authority to make such decisions as you do on their behalf. However, I was willing to drop the whole thing until I found something to put with my heading. Why did you restore it? Someone should also get rid of the comment above about WSTB as there has been an article about it for some time.Godofredo29 (talk) 13:14, 6 April 2009 (UTC)

 * There are set policies and guidelines set up by Wikipedia to create high-quality articles; these policies include things on what to and what not to include, how to write it, and how to cite sources among many other things. Become familiar with these. Both Nyttend and myself have been editing for many years and are largely familiar with those policies as are many other editors, which comes from experience and editing many different articles. One such policy is not removing parts of a discussion thread just because you want to "drop it." If you really want to drop it, you won't write anything back. As soon as you do write something and press "save" it will be seen by others. Trust me, I was much like you when I started in seeing Wikipedia as a place I could add any information I knew to articles I was familiar with. What I discovered over time is that just because I know something doesn't mean it is important enough to include in an article and also without a 3rd party reliable published source, there's no way to prove what I know is an actual fact. --JonRidinger (talk) 14:02, 6 April 2009 (UTC)

 * Godofredo, you may have heard the slogan, "Wikipedia: The encyclopedia anyone can edit." What gives Jon and Nyttend the "authority" to make the decisions they do, besides their experience in collaborating on the high quality articles to which we refer, is the same entity that gives you the authority to edit the articles as well. I encourage you to do so; and I encourage you to collaborate with us, as I know the three of us all have personal interests in Streetsboro. Oh, and as for the comment about WSTB, you should have checked the date- it was from 2005, and in fact the article about the station came as a direct result. Of course, even that article can be improved. Feel free! -- JeffBillman (talk) 00:52, 8 April 2009 (UTC)

 * By the way, who might be some candidates for notable residents from Streetsboro? Vince Koza (former sports anchor, WLIO-TV in Lima, Ohio) is all I can come up with, and I don't think he quite makes the cut. -- JeffBillman (talk) 01:57, 8 April 2009 (UTC)

Denver Avalanche

The Denver Avalanche were an American soccer team based out of Denver, Colorado that played in the Major Indoor Soccer League from 1980 to 1982. Their home arena was McNichols Sports Arena.

History
In February 1980, the Major Indoor Soccer League awarded a franchise to Ron Maierhofer, to be named the Denver Avalanche. The team's first three players, all signed the same day were Tony Graham, Chris Cattaneo and Adrian Brooks. The team's first draft pick Erhardt Kapp passed on the Avalanche and signed with the New York Cosmos of the North American Soccer League instead. The team's first game, an exhibition match, took place on November 3, 1980, a 10–4 loss to the St. Louis Steamers. Coached by Dave Clements, the Avalanche finished the regular season out of playoff contention, but in 1982, they made the playoffs only to fall to the St. Louis Steamers in the first round. Clements was named the 1982 MISL Coach of the Year.

The team entered Chapter 11 bankruptcy in 1983. The Avalanche's assets were purchased by a group led by George Best and moved to form the Tacoma Stars.
