Talk:Star Wars Technical Commentaries

Addressed lack of NPOV and tightened up the language. Last paragraph and ICS aside were unnecessary for an article dealing with SWTC. Please correct any errors. --Rev Prez 06:07, 29 May 2005 (UTC)

 * I'd have to admit you fused the first two paragraphs pretty well. However, I think the third paragraph is also important and its contents may be condensed, but not deleted. Because I don't have time to fix it all just yet, I'd just pull the old paragraph out. Maybe you can try to fuse it. Later, I hope to dramatically expand the page. As it is, the thing is at stub length. If we are going to have an article at all, let's have one that's full-sized.

 * If we can substantiate the third paragraph and cite, then I'm all for keeping it. Also, should we consider collapsing SWTC into a larger Star Wars "fanon" article (or something else that exists)?  I'm going to propose doing the same for SD.net.  --Rev Prez 06:31, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)

 * I'd find more specific examples later, but I just linked a thread that shows some of Saxton's enemies at TFN, and a second showing some of Paul Hidalgo's antics. When I expand the third paragraph into another "Criticisms" section in the AOTC vein, I'd try and find specific TFN threads involving each point. --Kazuaki Shimazaki 15:46, 1 June 2005 (UTC)

AN/SQQ-32 mine-hunting sonar

The AN/SQQ-32 minehunting sonar set (MSS) is a variable-depth mine-hunting sonar system originally developed by Raytheon and Thales Underwater Systems (formerly Thomson Marconi Sonar) for the United States Navy. It includes two separate active sonar systems to detect and classify mine-like objects on the surface, in the volume, or on the bottom of the sea. The sonar systems are packaged in a single towed body tethered to the ship through a cable providing power and data transmission, with the cable length variable via an electric winch. A hole in the ship extending from the sonar maintenance room (SMR) to the hull allows movement of the towed body in different configurations for maintenance, stowage at sea, and minehunting operations. The towed body can be configured for minehunting by either locking to the bottom of the ship's hull for shallow water operations, or by extending and retracting the tow cable to allow for variable depth sonar (VDS) operations. VDS operations are necessary in deep water due to refraction of the sonar from the various temperature layers present in the ocean; with the sonar positioned in the same thermal layer as the suspected mines the error induced by refraction is minimized. The detect and classify sonar subsystems are independently monitored and controlled by two operators at independent panels working together to find and characterize underwater objects as mine or non-mine like objects.

The SQQ-32 system became operational in 1990 and is currently installed on all mine countermeasures ships in the Avenger class and was previously installed on the Osprey class before decommissioned.

Detect system
The detect system is a low frequency, low resolution, high range sonar designed to provide a general location of possible mine-like objects. It provides much greater range than the classify sonar system but provides little resolution and detail of the objects it detects. It provides the operator 180 degrees of selectable coverage via electronic switching of sonar stave arrays circling the towed body. The newest AN/SQQ-32(V)4 upgrade contracted in 2011 includes a high frequency wide band (HFWB) modification that greatly improves shallow-water minehunting capabilities in high clutter environments.

Classify system
The classify sonar has a lower range, but higher frequency and higher resolution to allow the classification of a target as mine-like or non mine-like. Once a target is located by the detect operator, they will hand off the position to the classify operator where they will analyze the characteristics of the object to make a determination if it has mine-like properties. Characteristics include approximate size and shape measurements, ringing patterns caused by metallic objects, and aspect changes as the ship and towed body circle the target.

(V)4 upgrade
The AN/SQQ-32(V)4 system upgrade was designed and tested by Naval Surface Warfare Center Panama City and The University of Texas Applied Research Laboratory, and contracted to BAE systems for installation. The initial contract was for installation on four MCM-1 Avenger class minesweepers for $14 million, and later an available option was awarded to upgrade an additional ten units plus a battle spare.

Four senses of Scripture

The four senses of Scripture is a four-level method of interpreting the Bible.

In Christianity, the four senses are literal, allegorical, tropological and anagogical.

In Kabbalah the four meanings of the biblical texts are literal, allusive, allegorical, and mystical.

Judaism
In Judaism, bible hermeneutics notably uses midrash, a Jewish method of interpreting the Hebrew Bible and the rules which structure the Jewish laws.

Late Antiquity
The early allegorizing trait in the interpretation of the Hebrew Bible figures prominently in the massive oeuvre of a prominent Hellenized Jew of Alexandria, Philo Judaeus (c. 20 BC – c. 50 AD), whose allegorical reading of the Septuagint synthesized the traditional Jewish narratives with Platonism. Philo's allegorizing, in which he continued an earlier tradition, had little effect on later Jewish thought, in part because the Jewish culture of Alexandria dispersed by the fourth century.

In the 3rd century, the theologian Origen, a graduate of Catechetical School of Alexandria, formulated the principle of the three senses of Scripture (literal, moral, and spiritual) from the Jewish method of interpretation used by Paul of Tarsus in Epistle to the Galatians chapter 4. In the 4th century, the theologian Augustine of Hippo developed this doctrine which became the four senses of Scripture.

Prudentius wrote the first surviving Christian purely allegorical freestanding work, Psychomachia ("Soul-War"), about AD 400. The plot consists of the personified "good" virtues of Hope, Sobriety, Chastity, Humility, etc. fighting the personified "evil" vices of Pride, Wrath, Paganism, Avarice, etc. The personifications are women, because in Latin words for abstract concepts have feminine grammatical gender; an uninformed reader of the work might take the story literally as a tale of many angry women fighting one another because Prudentius provides no context or explanation of the allegory.

In this same period of the early 5th century, three other authors of importance to the history of allegory emerged: Claudian, Macrobius, and Martianus Capella. Little is known of these authors, even if they were "truly" Christian or not. Still, we know they handed down the inclination to express learned material in allegorical form, mainly through personification, which later became a standard part of medieval schooling methods.

Claudian's first work In Rufinum attacked the ruthless Rufinus and would become a model for the 12th century Anticlaudianus, a well-known allegory for how to be an upstanding man. As well his Rape of Proserpine served up a litany of mythological allegories, personifications, and cosmological allegories.

Neoplatonist commentators used allegory as a rhetorical, philosophical and religious devise in reading Ancient mythology, Homer, and Plato.

Macrobius wrote Commentary of the Dream of Scipio, providing the Middle Ages with the tradition of a favorite topic, the allegorical treatment of dreams.

Lastly, Martianus Capella wrote De nuptiis Philologiae et Mercurii ("Marriage of Philology and Mercury"), the title referring to the allegorical union of intelligent learning with the love of letters. It contained short treatises on the "seven liberal arts" (grammar, rhetoric, dialectic, geometry, arithmetic, astronomy, music) and thus became a standard textbook, greatly influencing educators and students throughout the Middle Ages.

Boethius, perhaps the most influential author of Late Antiquity, first introduced readers of his work Consolation of Philosophy to the personified Lady Philosophy, the source of innumerable later personified figures (such as Lady Luck, Lady Fortune, etc.)

Early Middle Ages
After Boethius, there exists no known work of allegorical literature until the 12th century. Although allegorical thinking, elements, and artwork abound during this period, it was not until the rise of the medieval university in the High Middle Ages that sustained allegorical literature appeared again.

High and Late Middle Ages
The earliest works were by Hugh of St Victor (Didascalicon, 1125), Bernard Silvestris (Cosmographia, 1147), and Alanus ab Insulis (Plaint of Nature, 1170, and Anticlaudianus) who pioneered the use of allegory (mainly personification) for abstract speculation on metaphysics and scientific questions.

The High and Late Middle Ages saw many allegorical works and techniques. There were four great works from this period.
 *  The Four Great Medieval Allegories
 * Le Roman de la Rose. A major allegorical work, it had many lasting influences on western literature, creating entire new genres and developing vernacular languages.
 * The Divine Comedy. Ranked amongst the greatest medieval works, both allegorically and as a work of literature; was (and remains) hugely popular.
 * Piers Plowman. An encyclopedic array of allegorical devices. Dream-vision; pilgrimage; personification; satire; typological story structure (the dreamer's progress mirrors the progress of biblical history from the Fall of Adam to the Apocalypse).
 * Pearl. In a plot based on an anagogical, allegory; a dreamer is introduced to heavenly Jerusalem. Focus on the meaning of death. A religious response to Consolation of Philosophy.

Four types of interpretation
For most medieval thinkers there were four categories of interpretation (or meaning) used in the Middle Ages, which had originated with the Bible commentators of the early Christian era.

 * 1) The first is simply the literal interpretation of the events of the story for historical purposes with no underlying meaning.
 * 2) The second is called typological: it connects the events of the Old Testament with the New Testament; in particular drawing allegorical connections between the events of Christ's life with the stories of the Old Testament.
 * 3) The third is moral (or tropological), which is how one should act in the present, the "moral of the story".
 * 4) The fourth type of interpretation is anagogical, dealing with the future events of Christian history, heaven, hell, the last judgment; it deals with prophecies.

Thus the four types of interpretation (or meaning) deal with past events (literal), the connection of past events with the present (typology), present events (moral), and the future (anagogical).

For example, with the Sermon on the Mount

 * the literal interpretation is the narrative that Jesus went to a hill and preached;
 * the allegorical/typological interpretation is that Jesus is a new Moses the Lawgiver, delivering commandments from a mountain;
 * the tropological interpretation is that people should be seekers who go out of their way to listen to Christ, then be peacemakers etc.;
 * the anagogical interpretation is that Christ was prophesying his own death, setting its interpretation (persecuted, with mourners, but peacemaking, etc) with the promise of eventual blessing at the eschaton.

Dante describes interpreting through a "four-fold method" (or "allegory of the theologians") in his epistle to Can Grande Della Scala. He says the "senses" of his work are not simple, but:

Rather, it may be called "polysemous", that is, of many senses. A first sense derives from the letters themselves, and a second from the things signified by the letters. We call the first sense "literal" sense, the second the "allegorical", or "moral" or "anagogical". To clarify this method of treatment, consider this verse: When Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a barbarous people: Judea was made his sanctuary, Israel his dominion (Psalm 113). Now if we examine the letters alone, the exodus of the children of Israel from Egypt in the time of Moses is signified; in the allegory, our redemption is accomplished through Christ; in the moral sense, the conversion of the soul from the grief and misery of sin to the state of grace; in the anagogical sense, the exodus of the holy soul from slavery of this corruption to the freedom of eternal glory.. they can all be called symbolic.The classic summary of fourfold exegesis is the following Latin doggerel verse, a widely known mnemonic device in medieval schools:

Old and New Testaments
Medieval allegory began as a Christian method for synthesizing the discrepancies between the Old Testament and the New Testament. While both testaments were studied and seen as equally divinely inspired by God, the Old Testament contained discontinuities for Christians—for example the Jewish kosher laws. The Old Testament was therefore seen in relation to how it would predict the events of the New Testament, in particular how the events of the Old Testament related to the events of Christ's life. The events of the Old Testament were seen as part of the story, with the events of Christ's life bringing these stories to a full conclusion. The technical name for seeing the New Testament in the Old is called typology.

One example of typology is the story of Jonah and the whale from the Old Testament. Medieval allegorical interpretation of this story is that it prefigures Christ's burial, with the stomach of the whale as Christ's tomb. Jonah was eventually freed from the whale after three days, so did Christ rise from his tomb after three days. Thus, whenever one finds an allusion to Jonah in Medieval art or literature, it is usually an allegory for the burial and resurrection of Christ.

Another common typological allegory is with the four major Old Testament prophets Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, and Daniel. These four prophets prefigure the four Apostles Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. There was no end to the number of analogies that commentators could find between stories of the Old Testament and the New.

There also existed a tradition in the Middle Ages of mythography—the allegorical interpretation of pagan myths. Virgil's Aeneid and Ovid's Metamorphoses were standard textbooks throughout the Middle Ages, and each had a long tradition of allegorical interpretation.
 * "An illustrative example can be found in Siena in a painting of Christ on the cross (Sano di Pietro's Crucifix, 15th c). At the top of the cross can be seen a bird pecking its own breast, blood pouring forth from the wound and feeding its waiting chicks below. This is the pelican whose "story" was told by the Roman naturalist Pliny the Elder. Thus by analogy to a "pagan" source, Christ feeds his own children with his own blood."

Medieval philosophers also saw allegory in the natural world, interpreting animals, plants, and even non-living things in books called bestiaries as symbols of Biblical figures and morals. For example, one bestiary compares stags with people devoted to the Church, because (according to medieval zoology) they leave their pastures for other (heavenly) pastures, and when they come to broad rivers (sin) they form in line and each rests its head on the haunches of the next (supporting each other by example and good works), speeding across the waters together.

Mateja Matejić

Mateja Matejić (Матеја Матејић; 19 February 1924 – 27 July 2018) was a Serbian American writer, translator, anthologist, Serbian Orthodox priest, and Professor Emeritus of Slavic languages and Literatures at Ohio State University.

Biography
Matejić was born in Smederevo in what was then the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes (today Serbia) and educated there. As a seminarian at Bitola during the Axis occupation of Yugoslavia, he left the country and completed his seminary education in a displaced persons camp in Eboli, Italy. In 1949, at another camp in West Germany, he married Ljubica Nebrigić of Srem (who preceded him in death on 17 April 2016).

He was ordained as a Serbian Orthodox priest in a camp in 1951. He and his young family emigrated to the United States in 1956. As a priest, he founded two parishes and encouraged and physically contributed to the building of two places of worship, the Church of St. George in Monroe, Michigan (where he served from 1956 to 1967), and the Church of St. Stevan of Dečani in Columbus, Ohio (where he served from 1967 until his retirement in 1990).

He graduated from the University of Michigan where he received his Ph.D.

Mateja Matejić was a founder of the Hilandar Research Library scientific project at the Ohio State University in Columbus, where he taught Slavic languages since 1968. He was the first director of the Resource Center for Medieval Slavic Studies and founder and director of the publishing house Kosovo, as well as the editor of the Paths of Orthodoxy magazine. A translator and anthologist of Medieval and foreign poetry, he had also authored several books of poems and Eastern Orthodox history, two of which are acclaimed: An Anthology of Medieval Serbian Literature (as co-author) and The Holy Mount and Hilandar monastery. In September 2000 he received two awards from the Serbian Orthodox Church, the St. Sava Medal (the highest), presented to him in Ohio, and the next day a gramata from Patriarch Pavle in Belgrade.

Chandler's edits
"Rumour has it Chandler has provided a 5 year long term and short term cash flow business plan, with detailed specifics to his Executive Council. "

 * Why is Craig using Wikipedia to spread rumours about what he may have done? Wikipedia is an encyclopeida. "Rumours" have no place here, only verifiable information.

"However, this has proven to be false ...."

 * It is unfortunate that the proof was not provided here.

"Others felt he was and is the future of the new conservative movement."

 * Name names, please. Who? Anyone with any credibility? Or are we talking about Craig's cat ?

"Chandler has shown an incredible knack for directing very large and organized right-wing gatherings in the past."

 * Craig added "incredible" here. It seems he also has an incredible lack of humility, and an incredible propensity for shameless self-promotion.

Don Leonardo's Comments To Ground Zero
Ground Zero. I find it alarming that you would blame Craig for anything when it was I who made the edits. Many people feel Craig is the future of Canada. The book the Next Canada mentions this as well and several people feel the same as I do. Why not call Craig as he suggested? Craig is well aware of this site as I am the one who pointed it out to him. Quite frankly, Craig does not care what people say about him as long as they are accurate. I will send the link to others to respond. Many people like MP Rob Anders, Calgary Alderman Ric McIver, Rev. Tristan Emmanuel, Mike Harris, Stephen Harper and others think very highly of Craig see PGIB's testimonial section for more.

Chandler keeps getting abused and falsely accused by people such as yourself and the attacks on him once again are shameful.

PS He has a dog not a cat, but I am sure when you call him as you have asked he will clear up anything, but I will mention what you have typed.

 * Hello Mr. Leonardo. I've made an initial edit to make the article more encyclopedic.  In case you hadn't seen them already, I wanted to direct you to the pages for the policies and guidelines that Wikipedia operates by.  Specifically, policies regarding a neutral point of view, verifiability, and what Wikipedia is not.  Please also do not misinterpret the questions and requests of Wikipedians as "attacks". We seek only to make Wikipedia the best encyclopedia it can be. Kurieeto 00:01, May 30, 2005 (UTC)

 * It appeared to me that the edits had been made by Craig Chandler, and I now understand that that was a mistake. I withdraw the comments that I made suggesting that he was responsible for the edits. I encourage you, Don, to review the links that Kurieeto has posted. They will help you to understand why the edits that you (and not Craig Chandler) made were, in many cases, not appropriate for Wikipedia. I will also note that I bear no ill-will toward Chandler. I also am not going to spend my time calling someone who really is of no great significance, in my opinion. Ground Zero 12:56, 30 May 2005 (UTC)

 * I agree, Craig Chandler is no longer of any significance. I believe this page should therefore be marked for deletion. Csears77 (talk) 20:31, 6 November 2010 (UTC)

 * Let me rephrase that -- in my opinion, Chandler no longer meets the "Notability" criteria on Wikipedia for people, and therefore I propose this page be marked for deletion. Csears77 (talk) 20:49, 6 November 2010 (UTC)

Chandler never ever met the "notability" criteria. He's a deplorable windbag who should have been run out of Alberta on a rail back in the nineties.

Zeta Phi Beta

Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc. (ΖΦΒ) is a historically African American sorority. In 1920, five women from Howard University envisioned a sorority that would raise the consciousness of their people, encourage the highest standards of scholastic achievement, and foster a greater sense of unity among its members. These women believed that sorority elitism and socializing overshadowed the real mission for progressive organizations. Since its founding Zeta Phi Beta has historically focused on addressing social causes.

Zeta Phi Beta is a non-profit 501(c)(7) organization that is divided into eight intercontinental regions and 800+ Chapters located in the US, Africa, Europe, Asia and the Caribbean. In 1948, Zeta Phi Beta became the first Greek-letter organization to charter a chapter in Africa (in Monrovia, Liberia). Zeta Phi Beta is the third largest predominantly African-American sorority.

Zeta Phi Beta and Phi Beta Sigma are the only constitutionally bound sorority and fraternity in the National Pan-Hellenic Council (NPHC)

Beginnings
In the spring of 1919, during a stroll on the campus of Howard University, Charles Robert Samuel Taylor, member of Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, shared with Arizona Cleaver his idea for a new sisterhood; a sister organization to his fraternity. Arizona presented this idea to Pearl Anna Neal, Myrtle Tyler, Viola Tyler, and Fannie Pettie, and a new sisterhood was formed.

Arizona Cleaver sought permission from the Howard University administration to establish a new campus sorority. That permission was granted, and on January 16, 1920, the first official meeting was held. The five students chose the name Zeta Phi Beta. Phi Beta was taken from Phi Beta Sigma to "seal and signify the relationship between the two organizations".

The newly established Zeta Phi Beta Sorority was given a formal introduction at Whitelaw Hotel by Phi Beta Sigma members Charles Robert Samuel Taylor and A. Langston Taylor. The two Sigma brothers had been a source of advice and encouragement during the establishment of the sorority and throughout its early days.

Alpha Kappa Alpha and Delta Sigma Theta sororities held a "Welcome to Campus" reception in the assembly room in Miner Hall, in honor of the new sorority.

Later that year, in December 1920, the sorority held the first boule (convention) with members of Phi Beta Sigma at Howard University. The Archon, the sorority's official magazine was established shortly afterwards. Later Boules were held in many locations across the United States.

Zeta Phi Beta was first incorporated on March 30, 1923 in Washington, D.C. by sorority members Myrtle Tyler, Gladys Warrington, Joanna Houston, Josephine Johnson and O. Goldia Smith. The sorority was incorporated by the state of Illinois in 1939.

In 1923, the first chapter of any black sorority to organize a collegiate chapter in Texas, Theta chapter, was established at Wiley College.

In 1959, Zeta Phi Beta purchased its current headquarters, located at 1734 New Hampshire Avenue NW on Dupont Circle in Washington, DC.

The "Five Pearls"
The Founders of Zeta Phi Beta were five collegiate students of Howard University. They are known to the members of the sorority as "The Five Pearls".

 * Arizona Cleaver (Stemons): Arizona Cleaver was the first president of Alpha chapter and the first national president of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority. She completed her graduate and post-graduate studies in the field of social work and was responsible for chartering numerous undergraduate and graduate chapters throughout the United States.
 * Myrtle Tyler (Faithful): Myrtle Tyler was the second national president of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority and blood sister to Viola Tyler. A high school mathematics and English teacher, Founder Tyler was an active member of Alpha Zeta chapter in Baltimore, Maryland.
 * Viola Tyler (Goings): Viola Tyler graduated from Howard University with a teaching degree and a major in math. She taught school in Ohio for many years and was always very active in community affairs.
 * Fannie Pettie (Watts): Fannie Pettie graduated from Howard with a Bachelor of Arts degree in education and taught junior and senior high schools in Savannah, Georgia. She was credited with organizing two additional Zeta chapters and had active membership in Delta Alpha Zeta chapter.
 * Pearl Anna Neal: After graduating from Howard University's Conservatory of Music, Founder Neal continued her studies at the Juilliard School of Music. In 1938, she was the first black woman in New York to earn a master's degree in music from Columbia University. An extremely accomplished musician, Founder Neal taught music in North Carolina public schools and served as a director of seniors majoring in music at Teachers College in Winston-Salem, NC.

Firsts
Zeta Phi Beta was the first to charter a chapter in Africa (Monrovia, Liberia). Today, there are also chapters in U.S. Virgin Islands, Jamaica, Bahamas, Japan, Korea, Barbados, Haiti, Germany, Belgium, United Arab Emirates, Trinidad/Tobago and most recently Accra, Ghana. Zeta Phi Beta was the first organization under the National Pan-Hellenic Council to have a national headquarters for all operations. Zeta Phi Beta is the first and only NPHC organization to be constitutionally bound to a fraternity, Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, Incorporated. Zeta Phi Beta is the first sorority in the National Pan-Hellenic Council to organize an auxiliary group.

Activities
Held annually, Zeta Day on the Hill provides an opportunity for Zetas to exercise another level of civic responsibility by learning the protocols for interacting with and the knowledge needed to maximize engagement with congressional representatives. As members of a "Community Conscious-Action Oriented" organization, Zetas schedule meetings with their representative or their representative's designee to discuss, during brief sessions, issues of interest to the local, state and national Zeta membership.

On January 25, 2001, Zeta Phi Beta was granted non-governmental organization (NGO) status with the United Nations.

In 2005, Zeta Phi Beta completed its $2 million renovation project of the international headquarters. The historic building has served as Zeta's home since its purchase in 1959.

In December 2010 the sorority officially partnered with Stevie Wonder to collect toys for his annual House Full of Benefit Concert. All of the sorority's 850 chapters signed on to collect toys for the program.

Controversies
Following a February 5, 2006 news report by WJLA, an ABC affiliated TV station based in D.C., the U.S. Internal Revenue Service, Federal Bureau of Investigation and United States Attorney opened an investigation into alleged financial irregularities occurring with the sorority's National President Barbara C. Moore. Sorority member and National Executive Board member Natasha Stark was the whistleblower that notified WJLA of the president's wrongdoings. Moore admitted to using sorority funds for personal expenses such as clothes, shoes, jewelry, food, liquor, etc. but disputed the figures reported by WJLA. Despite her admission, the sorority's board of directors refused to remove her from office defying organization by-laws, attempted to suppress information reported by WJLA, and refused to fully cooperate with the FBI and IRS. The sorority's board of directors initially tried to resolve the matter privately by asking the president to sign a promissory note to repay over $300,000 of sorority funds used for personal expenses back to the sorority but that dissatisfied Stark. The purpose of the investigation was to determine if the president had obtained funds from the tax-exempt organization for personal gain which violated IRS codes. In retaliation for contacting WJLA, Stark was expelled for "violating her duty of loyalty to the sorority, engaging in conduct injurious to the sorority or its purposes, and unsisterly conduct." on March 20, 2007, Stark filed a lawsuit with the District of Columbia District Court requesting $1 million in damages. Stark's claims for breach of contract and negligence were dismissed at a September 11, 2008 status conference.

Entertainer Sheryl Underwood was elected as the 23rd International Grand Basileus (President), during the sorority's biennial business meeting in Las Vegas, Nevada in 2008. Her election as Grand Basileus was disputed by some members as illegitimate, but District of Columbia Superior Court Judge Gerald I. Fisher dismissed a lawsuit against the sorority and Underwood that asked the court to unseat Underwood.

On July 3, 2008, Lorrie Sinclair filed a Diversity-Breach of Contract suit in the District of Columbia District Court against Zeta Phi Beta demanding $76,000.

In August 2009, the sorority chapter at Colorado State University was expelled from the campus after disturbing police reports of hazing surfaced.

On August 12, 2010, Coastal Carolina University, located near Myrtle Beach, SC, suspended its chapter of Zeta Phi Beta sorority for five years after being found in violation of the university's hazing policy, according to a release from CCU. According to information gathered through an investigation by the CCU's Office of Student Conduct, the sorority violated the policy regarding new member processes, the release said. The terms of the suspension encompass all activities, including new member processes, meetings, community service and social events. After the suspension has expired, Zeta Phi Beta may petition CCU to recognize the sorority for the fall 2015 semester.

In 2011, the chapter at the University of Maryland - College Park was placed under heavy scrutiny when a former pledge reported to authorities the serious abuse she endured from members of the organization. Seven members of the chapter were arrested for assault. The University of Maryland - College Park, as with most U.S. institutions, had a zero tolerance hazing policy that was communicated to all active members of the university's Greek system.

In 2012, a student at the University of California at Berkeley sued the sorority after experiencing hazing so disturbing and humiliating that she dropped out of school. She was initially reassured by members of the sorority that prospective members are not hazed, however she eventually learned that was a lie. In her lawsuit, she stated she had her head slammed into a wall, her pockets ripped from her jeans, she was beat over the head while being forced to recite the sorority's history, forced to clean up juice with only her back, and was subject to other illegal hazing activities.

In 2014, the sorority at the University of Memphis was given a three-year suspension for physically abusing and harassing pledges. One known pledge's nose was broken after being repeatedly hit in the face by several Zetas. Two Zetas identified in a police report as being extremely abusive towards pledges dropped out the university soon after the suspension was announced.

In 2020, the sorority at Western Illinois University was suspended by the university for nearly three years for hazing and code of conduct violations.

C., Atlanta Georgia, New Orleans, Louisiana, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and Chicago, Illinois.

Stork's Nest
Since 1971, Zeta Phi Beta has enjoyed a partnership with the March of Dimes in an effort to encourage women to seek prenatal care within the first trimester of pregnancy, thereby increasing the prevention of birth defects and infant mortality. Known as the Stork's Nest Program, this collaboration encourages participation and healthy behaviors during the pregnancy through two components - incentives and education. Nationwide, Zeta Phi Beta sponsors over 175 Stork's Nests. In 1997, during the celebration of the 25th anniversary of collaboration with the March of Dimes, the program was updated to include a new national logo, new educational materials, and new incentive items for those mothers participating in the program. As of 2005, the Stork's Nest Program has served over 28,000 women.

Creeping normality

Creeping normality (also called gradualism, or landscape amnesia ) is a process by which a major change can be accepted as normal and acceptable if it happens gradually through small, often unnoticeable, increments of change. The change could otherwise be regarded as remarkable and objectionable if it took hold suddenly or in a short time span.

American scientist Jared Diamond used creeping normality in his 2005 book Collapse: How Societies Choose to Fail or Succeed. Prior to releasing his book, Diamond explored this theory while attempting to explain why, in the course of long-term environmental degradation, Easter Island natives would, seemingly irrationally, chop down the last tree:

"I suspect, though, that the disaster happened not with a bang but with a whimper. After all, there are those hundreds of abandoned statues to consider. The forest the islanders depended on for rollers and rope didn't simply disappear one day—it vanished slowly, over decades."

Norma Jean & Marilyn

Norma Jean & Marilyn is a 1996 American biographical drama television film directed by Tim Fywell, based on the 1985 book Goddess, the Secret Lives of Marilyn Monroe by Anthony Summers. The film stars Ashley Judd as Norma Jean Dougherty and Mira Sorvino as Marilyn Monroe. It premiered on HBO on May 18, 1996.

The tagline for the highly fictionalized film summarizes the plot: "Marilyn Monroe was our fantasy. Norma Jean was her reality." In dream-like scenes, Monroe and her former self appear together, with Norma Jean sometimes taunting Monroe. The original music score was composed by Christopher Young.

The film was nominated for five Primetime Emmy Awards and two Golden Globe Awards, each including for both lead actresses.

Cast

 * Ashley Judd as Norma Jean Dougherty
 * Marianne Davis as young Norma Jean
 * Kelsey Mulrooney as child Norma Jean
 * Mira Sorvino as Marilyn Monroe

 * Lou Cutell as Henry T. Weinstein
 * Dana Goldstone as Lee Strasberg
 * Micole Mercurio as Mozelle Hyde
 * John Apicella as Milton R. Krasner

Production
A cherry-adorned dress Sorvino wore in the film, from The Misfits (1961), was actually worn by Monroe during the filming of the original film. It was provided to the production by designer and cinema costume collector Gene London.

While filming the film, Sorvino acquired a small dog whom she named Deer, after its uncanny resemblance to a deer. She adored the dog, and kept it in her trailer while filming, so it would be there waiting for her between shots. Once, while filming at the International School of Los Angeles, in the Los Feliz area of Los Angeles, a crew member inadvertently let the dog escape while cleaning Sorvino's trailer as she was on-set filming a shot. The school was located on a small hill, and Deer apparently bolted down the hill, and into the residential neighborhood below. Sorvino was inconsolable, and returned to the location nightly, cruising slowly through the area, calling out for her lost pet, and posting reward notices. Security Officers who worked overnight shifts on the set were advised of the situation, and were told to be alert to the possibility of Sorvino's presence, and to keep an eye out for the dog, who may return to the location. Several of the officers and other crew members even began bringing collars, leashes, dog carriers and treats with them to work, hoping to capture it, but the crew moved on to the next filming location, and it is believed that Deer was never found.

Critical reception
Norma Jean & Marilyn received mixed reviews from critics. On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, the film holds an approval rating of 60% based on 5 reviews, with a rating average of 4.8/10.

Juno (musical)

Juno is a musical with music and lyrics by Marc Blitzstein and book by Joseph Stein, based closely on the 1924 play Juno and the Paycock by Seán O'Casey. The story centers on the disintegration of an Irish family in Dublin in the early 1920s, during the Irish War of Independence. Juno is a hardworking matriarch who strives to hold her family together in the face of war, betrayal, and her worthless husband's drinking.

The original production opened on Broadway in 1959 and closed after only 16 performances. Its somber tone did not please the critics, who were disappointed that its stars, particularly Shirley Booth, did not have an opportunity to play comedy. The score and original cast album have found some praise. Several revivals have been staged, but none has met with great success.

Background
Despite light moments, the musical, even more than the satiric play, is essentially a tragedy. Modern scholars of musical theatre consider Blitzstein and Stein's musicalization of the source material to be strong, but initial reviews of the piece were mostly negative, mainly because critics and audiences felt that the story was too dark for a musical. The production closed after only 16 performances. According to Robert Viagas, writing in Playbill, "The consensus is that the score may have been ahead of its time, especially harmonically."

Productions
Juno premiered on Broadway at the Winter Garden Theatre on March 9, 1959. The original director was originally to have been Tony Richardson, who dropped out of the production during the early stages. Vincent J. Donehue replaced him, but the rest of the creative team were not satisfied with his work. He was then replaced by José Ferrer. Orchestrations were by Blitzstein, with support from Robert Russell Bennett and Hershy Kay. The show was conducted by Robert Emmett Dolan and choreographed by Agnes de Mille. The production starred Shirley Booth (as Juno Boyle), Melvyn Douglas (as Captain Boyle), Jack MacGowran (as Joxer), and Tommy Rall (as Johnny Boyle), with a cast that included Monte Amundsen, Nancy Andrews, Jean Stapleton, and Sada Thompson. It closed on March 21, after 16 performances.

Revivals of Juno have since been attempted several times with little success, with revisions and new material by Richard Maltby Jr. and severely reduced orchestrations. Juno was presented at the Williamstown Theatre Festival in 1974, in a "New Adaptation by Richard Maltby Jr. & Geraldine Fitzgerald and with Additional Lyrics by Richard Maltby Jr." and starred Fitzgerald as the title character and Milo O'Shea as Captain Jack Boyle.

The musical was produced Off-Broadway by the Vineyard Theatre in 1992, directed by Lonny Price, and featuring Anita Gillette and Malcolm Gets. The New York Times reviewer wrote: "Despite alterations, the musical has not markedly improved in its newly revised version. ... The savage ironies of that scene are not evoked in other aspects of the musical, which focuses on the latent sentimentality within the family relationships and the comic interplay among the characters. On the most immediate level, Mr. Blitzstein's music wavers in its claim to an Irish lilt. The lyrics often resort to banalities and occasionally to doggerel. Repeatedly, the show overlooks the opportunity to take off from the playwright's words. The score is unworthy of both O'Casey and Mr. Blitzstein, the composer of The Cradle Will Rock and Regina".

New York City Center's Encores! presented a semi-staged concert production of Juno in March 2008 directed by Garry Hynes, starring Victoria Clark and John Schuck using the original orchestrations. Critical response was more favorable after nearly fifty years, with praise for the score and performances. Ben Brantley, in his review for The New York Times, wrote that the score "translates Irish folk vernacular into a style that is part Broadway perkiness, part 20th-century-opera anxiety. And under the direction of Eric Stern, the Encores! orchestra fully evokes this intriguing ambivalence. Even the most buoyant love songs and ensemble numbers are inflected with an underlying grimness, as if hope could never be expected to fly free in the rotting tenements of Dublin. It feels right that the show’s prettiest number, a madrigal, is about a bird trapped in its nest. ... Ms. Clarks's Juno is the other principal reason to see this production."

Musical numbers

 * We're Alive – Ensemble
 * I Wish It So – Mary Boyle

Recordings
Blitzstein's score was preserved by Columbia Records, which released the original cast album in both monaural and stereo editions. The Fynsworth Alley label re-released the recording on compact disc in 2002. Steven Suskin, in his review in Playbill, noted: "Time and again in the score, I sense that Blitzstein is reminding himself to write Irish music – and that hampers his creativity. The score ranges from exceptional to mundane; the weaker portions make it very clear to us, today, that Juno simply couldn't have worked. There have been at least three major attempts at 'fixing' the show, in the same way that Bernstein's Candide was 'fixed'."

Talk:Bevel Lemelisk

Canonicity problems
I am concerned about the status of Bevel Lemelisk. The Death Star entry of the Star Wars databank (http://www.starwars.com/databank/location/deathstar/?id=eu) indicates that Lemelisk and his colleagues were instrumental in designing DS technology. That which comes from LucasFilm is in general regarded as one of the higher forms of Canon. I can also not find citations indicating that the Geonosians created the Death Star plans, but merely that Poggle the Lesser (the Geonosian leader) was in posession of the plans. (See http://www.starwars.com/databank/character/pogglethelesser/index.html). In any case, how can we resolve this? -SocratesJedi | Talk 06:25, 29 May 2005 (UTC)

Gian Paolo Lomazzo

Gian Paolo Lomazzo (26 April 1538 – 27 January 1592; his first name is sometimes also given as "Giovan" or "Giovanni") was an Italian artist and writer on art. Praised as a painter, Lomazzo wrote about artistic practice and art theory after blindness compelled him to pursue a different professional path by 1571. Lomazzo's written works were especially influential to second generation Mannerism in Italian art and architecture.

Early life
Gian Paolo Lomazzo was born in Milan to a family who had emigrated from the town of Lomazzo. His early training was with Giovan Battista della Cerva in Milan. He painted a large Allegory of the Lenten Feast for San Agostino in Piacenza (1567). Other works by his hand include an elaborate dome with Glory of Angels for the Capella Foppa in San Marco in Milan, and the Fall of Simon Magus in the wall of the chapel.

Lomazzo was depicted on a ca. 1560 medal by Annibale Fontana which described him as having been introduced by Mercury to Fortune (commercial success).

Writings on art theory and criticism
Lomazzo became blind in 1571 and turned to writing, producing two complex treatises that are milestones in the development of art criticism. His first work, Trattato dell'arte della pittura, scoltura et architettura (1584), is divided into seven books: Proportion, Motion, Color, Light, Perspective, Practice, History, and iconography related to classical and Christian subjects. Lomazzo offered a systematic codification of aesthetics was central to the development of Italian mannerist theories of art. Lomazzo's first treatise was translated into English by British physician Richard Haydocke and published in 1596 as A Tracte Containing the Artes of Curious Paintinge, Carvinge & Buildinge (1596), which included new details about British artists.

Lomazzo's more abstract Idea del tempio della pittura ("The ideal temple of painting", 1590) describes the "four temperaments" theory of human nature and personality and contains explanations about of the role of individuality in judgment and artistic invention.

Lomazzo's writings about art took into account three aspects of art criticism: doctrina, the record of discoveries— such as perspective— that artists had made in the course of history; prattica, the personal preferences and maniera of the artist, and iconography, the literary element in arts. Lomazzo's contribution to art criticism was his systematic extraction of abstract concepts from art, not merely a recounting of the marvels of verisimilitude and technique and anecdotes of the works' reception among contemporaries of the type that Giorgio Vasari had reported in the previous generation.

David Piper quotes his influential views on portraiture: "Emperors above all other Kings and Princes should be endowed with majesty, and have a noble and grave air which conforms to their station in life... even though they be not so naturally in life."

Giovanni Ambrogio Figino, Cristoforo Ciocca, Girolamo Ciocca, and Pietro Martire Stresi were his pupils.

James Seton, 4th Earl of Dunfermline

James Seton, 4th Earl of Dunfermline (died 26 December 1694) was a Scottish peer. James Seton was a younger son of Charles Seton, 2nd Earl of Dunfermline, and succeeded to the title at the death of his brother, Alexander Seton, 3rd Earl of Dunfermline, at some point in 1677. He married Lady Jean Gordon, daughter of Lewis Gordon, 3rd Marquess of Huntly and Mary Grant, about 6 July 1682.

Like his father, James was a Jacobite, and he joined the rising led by Viscount Dundee in 1689. James was Dundee's cavalry commander for most of the rising, and he led a troop of horse at the Battle of Killiecrankie in July 1689. After Dundee's death at the battle, James stayed with the rising as one of its senior figures until mid-1690. In the same year, he was outlawed and forfeited his estates and title. He then joined the deposed James VII at St. Germains, who conferred on him the Order of the Thistle. In 1694 James Seton died with no issue, thereby ending the earldom of Dunfermline. His prominent role in the 1689 rising, as an Earl and a member of the Scottish Privy Council, helps to disprove claims by some historians that Viscount Dundee's rising attracted no noble support other than Dundee himself.

Red-bellied macaw

The red-bellied macaw (Orthopsittaca manilatus), also known as Guacamaya Manilata, is a medium-sized, mostly green parrot, a member of a group of large Neotropical parrots known as macaws. It is the largest of what are commonly called "mini-macaws". The belly has a large maroon patch which gives the species its name.

It is endemic to tropical Amazonian South America (as well as the Caribbean island of Trinidad), from Colombia south to Amazonian Peru and Bolivia, and central Brazil as far as the northwestern cerrado. Its habitat is moriche (or buriti) palm (Mauritia flexuosa) swamp forests and sandy savannahs with palm groves. They are critically dependent on the Moriche palm for roosting, feeding and nesting. Although the bird is locally common, in places it has been adversely affected by clearing of the palms for use as posts, or to allow cattle ranching; also by capture for the pet trade.

Not to be confused with the African red-bellied parrot (Poicephalus rufiventris), a similarly named smaller parrot.

Taxonomy
The red-bellied macaw was described by the French polymath Georges-Louis Leclerc, Comte de Buffon in 1780 in his Histoire Naturelle des Oiseaux from a specimen collected in Cayenne, French Guiana. The bird was also illustrated in a hand-coloured plate engraved by François-Nicolas Martinet in the Planches Enluminées D'Histoire Naturelle which was produced under the supervision of Edme-Louis Daubenton to accompany Buffon's text. Neither the plate caption nor Buffon's description included a scientific name but in 1783 the Dutch naturalist Pieter Boddaert coined the binomial name Psittacus manilatus in his catalogue of the Planches Enluminées. The red-bellied macaw is now the only species placed in the genus Orthopsittaca that was introduced by the American ornithologist Robert Ridgway in 1912. The species is monotypic. The generic name combines the Ancient Greek orthos meaning "straight" and psittakē meaning "parrot". The specific epithet combines the Latin manus meaning "hand" and latus meaning "broad" or "wide".

Description
The red-bellied macaw is medium-sized, about 300 g in weight and about 46 cm in length including its long pointed tail. The plumage is mostly green; the cere and much of the face are covered with bare mustard-yellow skin, and the irises are dark brown. The forehead is bluish. The chin, throat and upper chest are greyish with some green scalloping, and the lower abdomen ("belly") has a large maroon patch. The tail is long and tapered. The underwings and undertail are dull olive yellow. Adults have dark-grey beaks. The legs and feet are dark grey. In common with other parrots, they have zygodactyl feet, two toes pointing forward and two backward. Males and females have identical plumage, but males are usually larger and have larger heads. Juveniles are duller in colour than adults and have a grey beak with a conspicuous white mid-line stripe running along the length of the culmen (top of the upper beak). The Spix's macaw is the only other macaw in which juveniles have a similar white culmen.

Distribution and habitat
The red-bellied macaw has an extremely large range throughout the Amazon Basin of the North Region, Brazil, except in the northwest quadrant centered on a large region of the Rio Negro flowing from Colombia-Venezuela. It ranges through the Guianas including the Guiana Highlands into eastern Venezuela, the lower Orinoco River Basin and across to the island of Trinidad.

Its southern limit in Brazil is the south-central and northwestern cerrado bordering the Amazon Basin.

Behaviour
Red-bellied macaws make reedy, high-pitched screams. They roost communally in the moriche palms, and large numbers can be seen at the roost sites at dawn and dusk; (see crepuscular). They choose large stands of these palms that have an overabundance of woodpecker holes as roosting sites. They sleep communally in these groups of hollows. Depending on the size of the hollow, between five and 10 birds sleep together. As dusk approaches, they all pile into these dormitories and sleep shoulder to shoulder.

Breeding
Red-bellied macaws nest in cavities of dead moriche palm trees. There are usually two to four white eggs in a clutch. The female incubates the eggs for about 27 days, and the chicks fledge from the nest about 77 days after hatching. Juveniles reach sexual maturity in 2–3 years.

Food and feeding
Their diet consists almost exclusively of the fruit and seeds of the moriche palm and the Caribbean royal palm (in Trinidad), which are 100% carbohydrate, 0% fat and very high in beta-carotene.

Conservation status
Red-bellied macaws are listed as "least concern" by the IUCN. Population numbers have not been estimated, but wild populations seem to be declining.

Aviculture

It is extremely difficult keep these birds alive in captivity, because of their high strung personality, and low fat and high carbohydrate diet. Export/Import for the pet trade often results in 100% mortality. Captive-bred chicks have a low survival rate.

The only country to export these birds in recent years is Guyana.

Because of lack of commercial availability of moriche palm nuts, shelled unsalted peanuts have been used as a staple in the diet of captive birds. They should not be fed commercial bird seed, especially fatty seed like Sunflower.

The parrot breeder, Howard Voren, successfully devised feeding and housing methods which would keep wild-caught red-bellied macaws alive in captivity, after observing the parrots' wild behaviors in Guyana. However, he decided to keep his method a secret for many years, as he did not wish to be responsible for restarting the trade in wild-caught macaws from the area, which previous to this had significantly reduced due to the high mortality rates, and therefore lack of commercial viability of trade in the species.

IC Characters Who Disappeared
If you'll check the history, I'm not the only person who deleted those names. A lot of characters whose whereabouts were briefly unknown at various times have not been included on those lists. If some people can say we count Pariah as dead because Johns said in an interview outside the comic that the guy is dead even though his death has never been confirmed in the comic, by gosh we can use a shred of common sense and leave those characters off the presumed dead list when we know darn well they're alive a year later. (On the other hand, if we don't quickly learn their whereabouts (i.e., in #7), we'd have to note that they're missing at the end of the series.) Wryspy 07:25, 15 April 2006 (UTC) P.S. And it's not clear exactly how many of them disappeared, regardless of the "ALL" remark. That could mean ALL of the ones who disappeared, not all of Donna's Crew. It was a character's reflexive remark, which we have no reason to consider an accurate assessment.

Okay, you're right that those mentioned as missing in Titans are definitely 100% missing. As for the editorial remark things: EDITORS LIE. At one point, to keep readers wondering, DC said Infinite Crisis would have nothing to do with Crisis on Infinite Earths. Wryspy 23:37, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

Oh, wait a minute. Are we supposed to draw from our One Year Later knowledge or not? If so, it's fair to specify that certain characters are missing because we already know that. HOWEVER, we know that some of them aren't. I know from Hawkgirl that she has not been missing for the last year. Also: I think the debate would be greatly eased if those who read an issue which confirmed someone had remained missing would so note that as was done in the case of Tempest. Seeing how people have gone back and forth on these issues, I apologize for contributing to the editing war on the matter. The fact that so many people keep changing the list does show that we need to find a middle ground. Simply tagging on the word debatable hasn't quite done it. Stating which disappearances have been confirmed would certainly help. I can't do that myself because I haven't read that issue of Titans yet. Wryspy 00:10, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

PS About the external links: I do not doubt your motives, but placing links everywhere is considered spamming. Perhaps the other links should also be removed. Wikipedia has too many external links. Ideally external links should only be used as references or if they are completely crucial to a topic (e.g. AMA website on the page about the American Medical Association). Advice boards, support groups etc. come thirteen in a dozen, and should rely on Google, not Wikipedia, for their traffic. JFW | T@lk

 * Thanks for your message, and I'm glad you understand my point-of-view. I don't think placing the Anxiety Zone URL on two pages is a bad idea, but I have a habit of automatically reverting brand new users whose sole aim of joining Wikipedia seems to have been to increase site traffic. Trust me, it happens very often.
 * I think Wikipedia is even better served if you manage to include un-biased and well referenced information to the articles you know things about. After all, as an encyclopedia the project aims to provide a good general outlook on a most diverse set of topics. I could spend all my time adding references to medical journals, but the project is better served if I quote the most relevant points from these articles, so the reader understands the bigger picture.
 * Enjoy your work on Wikipedia. JFW | T@lk  00:33, 30 May 2005 (UTC)

The World (radio program)

The World is a public radio international news magazine co-produced by the WGBH Educational Foundation and the Public Radio Exchange (PRX) and co-hosted by Marco Werman and Carolyn Beeler. The show is produced from the Nan and Bill Harris Studios at the WGBH building in Boston, Massachusetts.

History
In 1997, The World began producing a segment entitled "Global Hit", highlighting musicians and musical trends in the global news context.

Lisa Mullins hosted The World from 1998 to 2013. Since 2010, Werman has stepped in for Mullins as host. Beginning in 2013, he has served as the show's full-time host.

On April 14, 2020, the BBC announced it would end its production partnership on The World effectively July 1; the announcement caused WAMU in Washington, D.C. to move the show back to its 8 p.m. timeslot. The last episode of Boston Calling aired on June 27.

In July 2022, Werman began producing The World from the University of California, San Diego to help develop the university's Democracy Lab. As of June 2023, he broadcasts two days a week from the Department of Communication Social Sciences Research building.

On December 5th, 2023 it was announced that The World reporter Carolyn Beeler would join Werman as the program's co-host. Beeler joined The World as a reporter in 2015 and at the time of her becoming co-host, she oversaw the show's environmental coverage.

Production
The World is produced from the Nan and Bill Harris Studios at the WGBH building in Boston, Massachusetts. The show airs on over 300 public radio stations and has 2.5 million weekly listeners. Additionally, portions of The World aired in the United Kingdom as Boston Calling until 2020 and in whole in Canada through CBC Radio One.

The theme music of The World was produced by Eric Goldberg, who received the gig in 1995. In February 2015, the theme was redone to introduce a more contemporary sound with Marco Werman's new role. The current theme was written by Ned Porter.

A new theme song was commissioned in 2019.

Awards and recognition
Several series covered on The World have received awards. In 2006, the four-part series "The Global Race for Stem Cell Therapies" won an Alfred I. duPont-Columbia University Award and a National Journalism Award in 2006. That same year, "The Forgotten Plague: Malaria" received a Public Communications Award from the American Society for Microbiology and "Hiroshima's Survivors: The Last Generation" was recognized by the Dart Center for Journalism and Trauma.

Hong Rengan isn't a princely name of Hung Jen-kan. His princely name is "Prince Gan". Hong Rengan and Hung Jen-kan are simply two different romanizations of the same Chinese name that is pronounced somewhat like Hone-ng Jren-gan (sorry about the weird phonetic spelling. His names are hard to pronounce in English). Hong Rengan is in a romanization called Pinyin. Hung Jen-kan is in a romanization called Wade-Giles. --Menchi 06:41, 29 May 2005 (UTC)
