Montreal Olympique

The Montreal Olympique were a Canadian soccer team that competed in the North American Soccer League (NASL) from 1971 to 1973. The team was based in Montreal and played its 1971 and 1973 home matches at Autostade and at the Universite de Montreal Stadium for the 1972 season. Future Liverpool and Scotland national team star Graeme Souness appeared in ten games for the club on loan from Tottenham Hotspur F.C. in 1972 and future National Hockey League player Jim Corsi also played for the Olympique. During the team's three years of competition it failed to qualify for the post season and never had a winning record.

History
The Montreal Olympique were founded on 5 January 1971 with the announcement by Montreal Alouettes owner Sam Berger and North American Soccer League (NASL) chairman Lamar Hunt of Montreal as the ninth, and second Canadian, team for the upcoming 1971 season. In late February 1971 the team hired Italian coach Renato Tofani, who coached Taranto F.C. in Italy's second division the previous season, with Mike Campo named as his assistant. After starting the season with three consecutive losses without scoring a single goal, Tofani resigned as head coach and was replaced on an interim basis by Campo. A month later, with the team having only won a single game, the Olympiques named Sebastiano Buzzin head coach. The Olympiques' 8 August 1971 game against the Rochester Lancers was ended after 65 minutes of play when around 200 Montreal fans stormed the field of play at the Autostade after the Lancer's Francisco Escos scored his team's fourth goal of the match. The fans were angry Escos was not ruled offsides and attempted to attack the referee and linesman. Fans who remained in the stands reportedly threw chairs, one of which hit referee Peter Johnson, knocking him unconscious and requiring stitches. Throughout the season, the team hosted a total of five friendlies against international opponents Heart of Midlothian F.C. from Scotland, Italian club L.R. Vicenza, Shimshon Tel Aviv F.C. from Israel, Greek team Apollon Smyrnis F.C., and Bangu Atlético Clube from Brazil. The team lost four of the matches, only winning the game against Shimshon FC. The Olympiques finished the 1971 NASL season with a league worst record of four wins, five draws and fifteen losses and averaging only 2,440 attendance, also a league worst.

In February 1972, the Olympiques hired former Wycombe Wanderers F.C. and South Korea coach Graham Adams to manage the team. The team considered playing its home matches at Verdun Stadium and Jarry Park Stadium before settling on Universite de Montreal Stadium for its home matches. On 9 April 1972, Welsh international and former Leeds and Juventus center forward John Charles signed to play with the Olympiques. On 6 May 1972, it was announced that Graeme Souness and Mike Dillon had been loaned to the team by the Tottenham Hotspur F.C. Both players would make ten appearances for Montreal with Dillon scoring seven goals. Italian defender Luigi Mascalaito was also brought over on loan from Verona. All three were released during the season by the team at the players' request. As well as playing a series of exhibition matches against Canadian semi-pro and lower division teams, during the summer of 1972, the Olympique hosted Aberdeen F.C. from Scotland, Portuguese club CUF Barreiro, and Werder Bremen from West Germany. The team's match against Aberdeen was halted in the sixty-fifth minute after fans threw objects and invaded the pitch, attempting to attack the Scottish team's players after Joe Harper scored a penalty, giving the Dons a 1-0 lead. The Olympiques ended the 1972 NASL season in third place of the Northern Division with a record of four wins, five draws and five losses and averaging 2,308 fans a game. Prior to the final game of the season against the Dallas Tornado, owner Berger announced that the team had reduced its losses by 75% over the previous season. In February, it was reported the team had lost a combined $400,000 over the 1971 and 1972 seasons. Shortly after the season, Jim Koerner, formally of the St. Louis Stars, was hired as Business and General Manager.

For the 1973 NASL season, the Olympiques moved back to Autostade for its home matches. On 4 May 1983, a week before the opening weekend, Montreal faced the Atlanta Apollos in a pilot contest erroneously reported as the debut of indoor soccer in the United States, losing 8-6. This an exhibition match was actually two years after the first officially sanctioned indoor variant by the North American Soccer League, the 1971 NASL Professional Hoc-Soc Tournament. Montreal hosted three international teams during the summer of 1973, losing the first 3-1 to Finn Harps F.C. with Terry Harkin, who would spend the rest of the summer on loan with the Toronto Metros, scoring all three goals for the Irish team. It was the Harps only win against a professional team during their North American tour. In July, the team drew 1-1 against Mexican team C.D. Veracruz and lost four goals to none to FC Torpedo Moscow in a friendly held after the conclusion of the NASL season, a match which would turn out to be the team's last game. Montreal finished the 1973 season with a record of five wins, four draws and ten losses. In last September 1973, it was reported that the contracts of both GM Koerner and coach Adams had not been renewed and team owner Sam Berger announced that if the team did not find a suitable stadium for soccer, the club would not continue. The team folded shortly thereafter.

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (movie)

 This page is an archive of the discussion about the proposed deletion of the article below. This page is no longer live. Further comments should be made on the article's talk page rather than here so that this page is preserved as an historic record. The result of the debate was ambiguous.

I count 9 clear "delete" votes to 19 "keep" votes (4 anonymous or probable sockpuppet votes discounted). While that would normally be considered an unambiguous "keep" decision, I find it in direct contradiction to Wikipedia established policy (which was carefully cited below). A few keep voters explicitly expressed that they understood the policy and found reason to request an exception in this case. The majority of keep voters appear from their comments to have voted in ignorance of the policy.

I am going to call this decision as a "no concensus" (which defaults to keep for now). All participants are encouraged to carefully review the relevant policies before voting and certainly before renewing this debate. Rossami (talk) 22:57, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)

 * Keep. The film will eventually be made, and the article recreated, and untill then it serves as information about cast, etc. Many articles on Wikipedia are about things that have yet to happen, this is no different from the rest of them. Orange Goblin 22:54, 28 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Yes, WP has many articles about "things that have yet to happen" but it's just too far out to have an article. 2007? Come on. At least let the fourth movie come out first. There hasn't even been a big media deal about this yet, which is a possible qualification for future events/releases. Heck, they haven't really even gotten started for the sixth book yet, let alone even the fourth movie. Information on the cast can be found on the actor/actress's own page, most of which can be accessed through the articles for the other four movies. Not only that, but nobody's officially been confirmed yet, AFAIK, except the director. Sure, we presume Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson, Rupert Grint, and the rest will be coming back, but we don't know. It's just too early to know. Speculation is inherently unencyclopedic. (I'll quit speechifying now. :-) Hermione1980 23:07, 28 May 2005 (UTC)
 * IMDB has the cast list so far - only two, but its still there. If this is delete, someone will just come along and recreate it, it'll get deleted again, etc etc, untill it is 2007. So why not just leave it? Orange Goblin 23:16, 28 May 2005 (UTC)
 * It may be far off, but all the info is confirmable and it states all speculation, which really isn't too wild, upfront. I think it's got sufficient info available to keep. Mgm|(talk) 23:18, May 28, 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. The article states the cast have not signed on but are expected to.   How can a movie that does not yet have a cast be anything other than speculation?  Recreate when a firm release date is published. --Allen3 talk 23:19, May 28, 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. There has even been speculation that the original kids would not make any more of the movies.  RickK 23:32, May 28, 2005 (UTC)
 * Isn't that the kind of thing that should be in the article? Orange Goblin 23:56, 28 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Let me point you again to What Wikipedia is not, specifically this:
 * With few exceptions, future events are prima facie unencyclopedic, because they are unverifiable until they have actually occurred. In particular:

 * 1) Individual scheduled or expected future events, such as the 2028 Summer Olympics, are not suitable topics for articles, unless they are as predictable as an astronomical event; planning or preparation for the event is already in progress and the preparation itself merits encyclopedic inclusion; or speculation is well documented, such as with the 2008 U.S. presidential election.
 * Filming isn't even supposed to start until spring 2006. I doubt they're even in pre-production yet. How many other movies coming out in 2007 do we have articles on? If there are more articles than just a couple of stubs, I will be quite surprised. Hermione1980 00:12, 29 May 2005 (UTC)

Revenge of the Sith, for instance, has been on Wikipedia since June, 2002, just a month after the box office release of the preceding Star Wars movie, Attack of the Clones.  The information on this much-awaited Harry Potter movie seems to be out of sync with IMDb, which lists the producer as David Heyman, not Chris Columbus, but if the Wikipedia version is wrong this problem can be solved by editing. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 12:59, 29 May 2005 (UTC)

 * Keep. I understand the "crystal ball" argument, but I think the fact that this is an inevitable movie in a major series weighs more importantly. I think that the "speculation is well documented" and that this makes this article worthy of inclusion. Sjakkalle 06:52, 30 May 2005 (UTC)

 * Keep: there will inevitably be information about this film which needs to be recorded and this is the best place to record it. I'm inclined to think that some of the worry about future events is over-blown: the preparation for a major event which fails to happen is likely to be just as encyclopedic as the event itself might have been, and writing the article months afterwards is bound to introduce inconsistencies and inaccuracy. --Phil | Talk 09:19, May 31, 2005 (UTC)

I thought it was a little odd that the movie had an entry at first, but an established link with limited appropriate information should be more static than an entry that's constantly being re-created and re-deleted.

 * Comment. The IMDb notes that the film is in "pre-production."  Therefore, as per the What Wikipedia Is Not wording, planning or preparation is worthy of an article.  I'm not voting yet because I'm not sure how reliable IMDb is in these matters.  I just offer that for you to consume and think about. -Tadanisakari 06:45, Jun 13, 2005 (UTC)
 * IMDb isn't always reliable, but The Leaky Cauldron reported on this a few days ago, also confirming that Daniel Radcliffe is almost certainly going to sign on. Perhaps I should withdraw this request. Hermione1980 13:10, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Guelph/Eramosa

Guelph/Eramosa is a township located in Wellington County, in midwestern Ontario, Canada. It partly encircles the city of Guelph, surrounding it in a continuous arc from approximately northeast to south-southwest of the city. It is part of the Guelph census metropolitan area.

History
The township was created in 1999 by the merger of the townships of Guelph and Eramosa, as well as parts of Pilkington and Nichol townships. The name Eramosa was derived from the native word Un-ne-mo-sah (possibly meaning "black dog", "dead dog", or simply "dog").

Eramosa Township was settled primarily by Scots and Irish; in 1841, its population was 935.

The mayor of Guelph/Eramosa in 2022 is Christopher White (who was first elected in 2010). Township councillors are Bruce Dickieson, Corey Woods, Steven Liebig, and Mark Bouwmeester. County councillors are Don McKay and Doug Breen.

Auto parts manufacturer Linamar was started in the village of Ariss in 1964 by Hungarian refugee Frank Hasenfratz, initially in his basement. The company, with a staff of five, was incorporated in 1966 as Linamar Machine Limited. Linamar's first major contract was to manufacture automotive oil pumps for Ford. Linamar now operates 22 plants in Guelph.

Communities
Prior to European settlement, this area was occupied by the Attawandaron, also known as the Neutrals in the 1600s. They were an Iroquoian-speaking people. The territory was later held by the Mississaugas of the Credit River; they sold a large tract of land to the government in 1818 and it was first surveyed that year. The name Eramosa was applied to the large parcel of land.

Rockwood is the main community in the township. Today Highway 7 gives access to Rockwood, located between Acton and the city of Guelph. The Eramosa River runs through the centre of the village. Anglo-Europeans settled here because of the river; it provided power for mills, some of the first businesses established. They were integral to industry and became the economic engine of the settlement.

In addition, limestone was extracted for industrial use in those years. The former quarry and mining areas are now protected as the nearby Rockwood Conservation Area. The conservation area is used for such recreation as swimming, hiking, canoeing, picnicking and camping from the last Friday in April to the Sunday following Thanksgiving. It attracts more than 65,000 visitors annually. The conservation area features a small reservoir on the Eramosa River, karst formations, and caves.

The township also includes the smaller communities of Ariss, Brucedale, Centre Inn, Eden Mills, Eramosa, Everton, and Marden. Several former place names connected to 19th-century mills and post offices, such as Armstrong Mills, Birge Mills, Mosborough, and Rockcut, continue to appear on some maps of the area.

Settler Adam Argo named a small area as Eden Mills in 1846 after building a mill there. Over the years, the hamlet had a grist mill, an oatmeal mill, and several saw mills, all powered by the Eramosa River. Other businesses also thrived.

In the 20th century, it had a stop for the Toronto Suburban railway (the station area was later developed as the Edgewood Camp), which ran from Toronto to Guelph. As recently as 1950, two churches and a school (SS#11) operated in the hamlet. The population of the hamlet in early 2019 was 350.

James J. Hill, founder of the Great Northern Railway, was born in Rockwood in 1838.

Demographics
In the 2021 Census of Population conducted by Statistics Canada, Guelph/Eramosa had a population of $13,904$ living in $4,838$ of its $4,993$ total private dwellings, a change of NaN% from its 2016 population of $12,854$. With a land area of 292.84 km2, it had a population density of in 2021.

Government
Guelph/Eramosa is governed by a mayor and four councillors, with one councillor representing each of the four municipal wards. The Mayor of Guelph/Eramosa represents the town on the Wellington County Council. As of the 2022 election, the elected council members are:

Mayor: Chris White

Councillors:

 * Ward 1: Bruce Dickieson
 * Ward 2: Corey Woods
 * Ward 3: Steven Liebig
 * Ward 4: Mark Bouwmeester

Transportation
and pass through the township, with Highway 7 passing through Rockwood. The nearest 400-series highway is, which is to the south and southeast.

The Metrolinx Guelph Subdivision railway line runs through the southern part of the township. It is used for both passengers and freight (the latter operated by the Canadian National Railway). Despite the line hosting both GO Transit's Kitchener line and Via Rail's Toronto-Sarnia train, no passenger rail service is available in the township; the nearest passenger rail stations are Guelph Central and. Rockwood formerly had a railway station, which was relocated south to the Halton County Radial Railway Museum (technically in the neighbouring town of Milton) for preservation after the end of service.

Education
Guelph/Eramosa township contains three public elementary schools administered by the Upper Grand District School Board. These are:
 * Eramosa Public School
 * Rockwood Centennial Public School
 * Harris Mill Public School (French Immersion)

Montreal Manic

The Montreal Manic or the Manic de Montréal were a professional soccer team based in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, that played in the North American Soccer League.

History
"Le Manic" as they were called by the locals, were Montreal's first professional soccer team since the NASL's Montreal Olympique folded in 1973. The team was named after a river in northeast Quebec, the Manicouagan, the site of a massive hydroelectric project.

The Montreal Manic competed from 1981 to 1983, with their home field being the Montreal Olympic Stadium. Previous to Montreal, the team played as the Philadelphia Fury from 1978 through 1980 and ten Fury players as well as manager Eddie Firmani moved to Montreal for 1981.

After defeating the Los Angeles Aztecs in the first round of the 1981 NASL playoffs, the Manic faced the Chicago Sting. An Olympic Stadium crowd of 58,542 (the largest-ever to see an NASL playoff game outside the Cosmos' Giants Stadium) saw the Manic defeat the Sting in the opening match before the series shifted to Chicago where the Manic lost twice and were eliminated. In 1982 the Manic performed better in the regular season than in 1981, but lost in the first round of the playoffs to the Fort Lauderdale Strikers and Firmani was fired.

In 1983 the interest in the team and the average attendance fell sharply. The Manic's opening home match in 1983 versus the Tampa Bay Rowdies was witnessed by just 6,460 fans. However, in their final season, the Manic produced one of the great shocks in NASL history by eliminating the New York Cosmos in the quarterfinals of the 1983 playoffs, winning the first match away 4–2 and winning the second match at home in a shootout. The Manic then lost to the Tulsa Roughnecks in the next round.

In the 1983 season, the Manic hosted Nottingham Forest (a 4–3 extra time loss) and FC Nantes (a 2–1 shootout victory for Montreal) at the Olympic Stadium.

In his book, Soccer in a Football World, North American soccer historian Dave Wangerin partially attributes the downfall of the Manic organization to the Molson ownership's declaration to attempt to build a Team Canada roster for the 1984 season. The new direction of the team meant many of the team's players who originated from foreign countries would be let go, to emphasize an all Canadian roster instead. Given that Canada had a relatively poor track record at producing world class soccer talent, Montreal fans were likely put off by the prospect that the quality of the team's play would instantly diminish for the 1984 season. More importantly, the team was allegedly in financial trouble despite the fact that the Manic had some of the highest attendances in the NASL. Reports indicated that during the first two seasons, the Manic lacked profitability as they had lost $7 million. Manic president Roger Samson blamed the losses on bad stadium deals, high rents, having the concession profits going directly to the Montreal Expos, a lack of a television deal, and that an average attendance of over 20,000 was insufficient to keep the franchise solvent.

Post Register

The Post Register is a U.S. daily newspaper serving the Idaho Falls, Idaho, area, as well as Jackson, Wyoming, and West Yellowstone, Montana. It is owned by the Adams Publishing Group.

History
In 1931, the local Daily Post merged with Times-Register to become the Post Register.

Jim Brady, entered the business in 1933. In 1941, Jim Brady's brother Robb entered the business. Robb Brady was given the position of publisher in 1977 when the previous publisher died.

In 1984 Jim Brady died and shortly thereafter his son, Jerry Brady, entered the family business. Jerry Brady was named publisher in 1988 after Rob Brady retired.

In 1998, a number of family shareholders sold 49% of their interest in the company to an Employee Stock Ownership Trust, and established employees of The Post Company as official stockholders of the business. The Brady family maintained enough stock, however, to maintain control of the company.

In 2002, Jerry Brady ran as a Democrat for Governor of Idaho and named Roger Plothow publisher. Brady lost the election to Governor Dirk Kempthorne. After losing the election, Brady officially turned over the title of editor and publisher to Plothow.

In 2005, the paper won the Scripps Howard Foundation's First Amendment prize for an exposé on pedophilia in scouting. Post-Register journalist Peter Zuckerman won the Livingston Award in the category of local reporting for his work on the same story.

In November 2015, the Post Company, which owned the Post Register as well as weekly newspapers Shelley Pioneer, Challis Messenger, and Jefferson Star, was purchased by the Adams Publishing Group, a family-owned media company based in St. Louis Park, Minnesota.

Disambiguation
Disambiguation links are used when a person putting a word in the search box may been sent to a page they weren't looking for. The policy states that you do not disambiguate, or add a link to a disambiguation page, if there is no risk of confusion, as is the case here because the page name is "Chocolat (movie)", not "Chocolat". A disambiguation link is therefore an inappropriate way to link to the article "Chocolat" from here. Joe D (t) 22:36, 28 May 2005 (UTC)

 * That's great if you can guarantee that nobody ever ends up at the wrong place (possibly because someone linked the movie article when the novel article would have been more appropriate). I don't think you can make that guarantee, so I guess I don't understand why the presence of the dab line bothers you so much.

 * I don't see why anybody would link to the movie when they meant the book, considering the book is named "Chocolat" and the movie is named "Chocolat (movie)" - it would be pretty obvious to them that they were linking to the movie. If somebody does link to the wrong page that's a case for fixing the link, not cluttering this page with excess disambiguation links.  The reason the disambiguation line bothers me is that the two disambiguation lines clutter this page but don't serve any disambiguation purpose.  Joe D (t) 11:18, 29 May 2005 (UTC)

 * I completely disagree that each and every wikipedia visitor/user understands the disambiguation process. If they put in Chocolat into google and found this page, but were really looking for the book......chances are they would not find it.  You have done this on many pages and I disagree with each and every instance of it. Cburnett 18:36, May 31, 2005 (UTC)

 * So because "not every Wikipedia uses understands the disambiguation process" it would be easy to link to Chocolat (movie) thinking it was a book? Joe D (t) 18:56, 31 May 2005 (UTC)

 * What? If google points me to Chocolat (movie) and I, an unknowing WP visitor, don't know the book is at Chocolat then I'd have to rely on someone having linked Chocolat in Chocolat (movie).  Not so convincing for a movie based on a book, but more so for Replicator (Star Trek) since there is no link to Replicator without the dab header. Cburnett 19:14, May 31, 2005 (UTC)

 * Did you read Wikipedia_talk:Disambiguation? This has been proposed before and rejected.  Joe D (t) 19:20, 31 May 2005 (UTC)

But what about the 2016 French film of precisely the same name Chocolat (2016 film)? Cluginbuhl (talk) 01:36, 15 March 2021 (UTC)

Music
Can someone tell me in this film there is a "Classical" music that I want to take and often hear it in TV but do not know its name.80.80.175.66 (talk) 19:00, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

Overview
The overview in this article more closely resembles a review than a synopsis. It needs a little editing to be NPOV. Thanks. Rockhopper10r 19:36, 18 Jun 2005 (UTC)

I am new to commenting and have never edited--I was uncertain how to start a new comment. I read this article and noticed there was no mentioned about the mystical elements of the movie. Thanks, jnmckm Jen

 * I agree that without even a cursory mention of the mystical elements of the film (examples: Vianne's backstory, her intuitive ability to help villagers, the ancient healing power of her recipes, how the mother and daughter travel with the north wind), the plot description makes the film sound a lot drier than it actually is. It would be a pity if a reader chose not to see the film based on that driness. Thank you, Wordreader (talk) 06:07, 21 August 2014 (UTC)

Plot
An anon user had changed the synopsis to one of the book, rather than the film. I've not only reverted it, but also dealt with a minor grammatical matter. AndyB (talk) 22:13, 17 September 2011 (UTC)
 * The Plot Summary is supposedly too long, so what's wrong with using the one from Chocolat (Novel), which seems to me the right length? Valetude (talk) 03:16, 30 May 2016 (UTC)

Plot - priest & fire
Anyone else find it weird that the plot seems to miss the priest completely? I don't think he was & extremely major character but IIRC he was somewhat of a foil to the mayor and IMO important enough for a brief mention. It's been a while but IIRC he didn't really agree with the mayors view but as a new young priest allowed the dominant mayor to take control over the message but grew stronger over time until the end after the mayor's binge episode (which I believe he also knew about) he took control.

Also, and again I could be wrong, but I don't think the fire is explained that well. Our article mentions it made her lose confidence in the town. IIRC, it wasn't just that the fire happened. Rather the mayor tried to spin it to make her and the gypsies look bad rather than concentrate the perpetrator. (Who as our article mentions had been the mayor's pet project and I think believed he had done something the mayor would appreciate. Although to his credit, the mayor was disgusted and forced him to leave.)

Nil Einne (talk) 17:13, 14 August 2014 (UTC)

Narrator?
I understand that the narrator is Anouck, as an adult, looking back on her memories of her mother and their early experiences in the village, but the voice certainly sounds like that of Juliette Binoche, yet she is not credited here as fulfilling that role. Is she the narrator? Thank you, Wordreader (talk) 06:13, 21 August 2014 (UTC)

A sentence that needs help...
Regarding this sentence under the Plot section: "Vianne wears more provocative clothing than the village women, does not attend Mass (being an atheist), and has an illegitimate child. . ."

 * Why "provocative" clothing? That word is not mentioned in the film and there's nothing provocative about the character's clothing, anyway. It looks to me to be more youthful, fashionable, modern, but not more "provocative". How about "Vianne dresses in a different style than the village women. . ."?

 * Why "(being an atheist)"? The Vianne character simply tells the mayor, when he invites her to church, that she doesn't attend. The only person who calls her an "atheist" is one of two boys who peep through a void in the newspapers pasted over the front window. When the other boy asks what that means, the first boy says that he doesn't know. Vianne never self-identifies as an atheist in the film. I haven't the read the book, so I don't know whether she does there or not. How about deleting the parenthetical comment?

 * Why "illegitimate"? That's such an ugly word to call any child, isn't it? How about ". . .and has a child although she never married."?

Thank you, Wordreader (talk) 22:50, 9 September 2014 (UTC)

 * Also, Serge is called an alcoholic in this article. That he is abusive is obvious; that he drinks to excess a few times is obvious; that he has several scenes where not only does he appear to be sober, but has no drink near him is obvious (Mass, tavern, religious class, river bank); but nowhere in the film is he labeled an alcoholic. If I am misremembering, please advise. Thank you, Wordreader (talk) 23:03, 9 September 2014 (UTC)

 * I should have mentioned that Vianne's wardrobe was much more colorful that the neutralized earth colors of the village women, perhaps the most obvious difference! B^) Thank you, Wordreader (talk) 08:14, 10 September 2014 (UTC)

 * Since there has been no other input, the changes above were made in addition to some grammatical corrections and places where the authors have assumed what the characters were thinking (WP: original research) were tagged for citations. I also made what I believe are some clarifications. Thank you, Wordreader (talk) 11:57, 28 October 2014 (UTC)

Time setting of the story; Luc's mother
1. Regarding "In the winter of 1959. . .": The film actually begins with the narrator saying, "Once upon a time. . .", a nicely fuzzy time fix. And although the weather may still be blustery with snow flurries, the village is already into Lent when Vianne and Anouck arrive, making it either at the very end of winter or during early spring. Vianne mentions at one point that, "It's been 15 years since the war." But since the war, what? Since it started with Hitler invading Poland (1939), invading France (1940), the Armistice was signed (1945), all prisoners of war returned home (years later)? Again, vague. Perhaps the novel states that the story took place "in the winter of 1959", but the film does not (a reasonable assumption though it may be).

2. I'm curious if the additional material on the DVR or any discussions or analysis of the film addresses the relationship of Luc's mother with her son. It seems odd to me that such a religious woman, one who micromanages her son's homework and refuses to let him ride a bicycle through most of the film, would tolerate all those drawings of blood and gore and corpses to be pinned up in his bedroom. Thanks again, Wordreader (talk) 08:55, 10 September 2014 (UTC)

Judi Dench
Could someone please make the "Judi Dench" pointer precede the other "Dench" item in this page? It was rather awkward to have to go halfway down, to be sure that it was she who was referenced. And I am a novice at Wikipedia, so I would probably mess it up if I tried to fix it. Thank you very much. CaptainSleaze (talk) 01:33, 8 June 2021 (UTC)

Talk:Mazda Demio

Mio is not Latin
"Mio" is not a Latin term. The Wiktionary link indicates a number of Romance languages use this word for the first person possessive, and while all of them derive from the Latin meus (!!) there is no Latin form which arrives at "mio."

Demios called Demios outside Japan
The original Demio was called the Demio (including the facelift) in the British Isles for most of the time, but I remember seeing one which was called a 121 with some sub-title below - I'm not sure where it was from or if it was even right-hand-drive, but it was Irish-registered so there's chance it was sold here. Maybe it was sold for the short period before the Ford Fiesta-based 121 was released? --Zilog Jones 22:36, 28 May 2005 (UTC)

2007 Model more sexy and attractive?
As a Mazda2 owner I feel the new model may well be more sleek but I don't consider it attractive. It is certainly less practical, more cramped with far less cargo space and has worse visibility when driving due to its lower profile. As with several Mazda2 owners that I know I will be going for a Mitsubishi Colt or even Nissan Tiida when trading in this year. So there! --MichaelGG (talk) 13:26, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

 * I agree. "Sexy and attractive" is not something everyone thinks when they see this car, and it certainly isn't a neutral observation. Citation is needed to prove that people who see this car are aroused and attracted to it. Otherwise, I feel "sleek" is more appropriate, if anything. 68.79.97.96 (talk) 18:32, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

 * Oops, I made a change to the page before realizing that there was relevant discussion on it. I changed the intro section to say the 2007 model was a change in style which made it look sportier, which IMHO is almost as neutral as sleek. Actually, the WCOTY 2008 media release describes the 2007 model with phrases like sportier, not as one-box-ish, big thumbs up, and very appealing looks, so sexier it is! Might edit it some more now that I've read the article and didn't just assume what it would say. Damn newbies. Sorry MichaelGG, apparently the WORLD disagrees! ;-) (203.20.35.106 (talk) 08:38, 3 April 2008 (UTC))

2002 vs 2007 models
There seems to be some confusion in the "2002" section of this article between the 2002-2007 Mazda 2/Demio and the 2007 Mazda 2 model. Letdorf (talk) 00:55, 5 February 2008 (UTC).

Hybrid vehicle?
Is there a reason why this article is in the category 'hybrid vehicles'?

I see nothing in the article, in reviews of the car, or in Mazda's own info on it mentioning anything about it being a hybrid. When I took one for a test drive, the salesman said nothing about hybrid technology.

If it is a hybrid, it seems it is being kept very quiet! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Beev (talk • contribs) 17:38, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

 * That's how you know it's a hybrid! Fritter (talk) 01:31, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

Eh? Beev (talk) 22:31, 31 March 2008 (UTC)

Perhaps this was fixed after the above comments, but the article now includes a section about the proposed hybrid version, as well as a description of the e-4WD system. brian|bp 22:39, 4 January 2017 (UTC)

Wankel hybrid version
"It would be mounted on its side" is really not clear. If an engine is laid on its side, that would usually mean rotating it 90 degrees about the crankshaft, and that's not likely what was intended. It would be much more clear to say " It would be mounted with the mainshaft vertical"... if that's the orientation which is intended. Simply repeating poorly written content from a source (the Motoring article in this case) doesn't make it good content. brian|bp 22:46, 4 January 2017 (UTC)

Orientation issue fixed by finding clear reference and replace "on its side" terminology with "vertical mainshaft". brian|bp 03:15, 5 January 2017 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Brian abp (talk • contribs)

Another bit copied directly from the the Motoring article is "Equipped with a nine-litre fuel tank that can be filled with petrol, butane or propane..." These seems wildly unlikely, as neither the same tank nor the same fuel plumbing would be suitable for both petrol and propane. brian|bp 22:47, 4 January 2017 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Brian abp (talk • contribs)

North America?
Can someone comment (or add to the article, as appropriate) if future Mazda2s/Demios will be sold in North America? --Fletcher (talk) 17:41, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

 * FWIW: The Mazda 2 is still being sold in Canada as of Dec 2011 Santamoly (talk) 08:44, 19 December 2011 (UTC)

Requested move

 * Oppose: first gen models were not Mazda2s, but rather Mazda 121s. You should check this out first. OSX (talk • contributions) 12:39, 29 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Oppose, it's other model car. --Tomcha (talk) 12:54, 29 July 2009 (UTC)

 * Propose, The chassis lineage says all. The chassis is a D chassis, the Mazda 2 is the E (5th) evolution of it. The names change as markets and eras change, but the vehicle is of the same platform lineage. This applies to the Mazda 626 aka Mazda6 and Mazda 323 aka Mazda3 also. New articles for each name change makes people think these cars are 'new to the market' with no history or evolution behind them, which is wrong.

Mazda 2 and Fiesta
I don't get it. According to a SAE article referenced in the Fiesta wiki article, which seems credible, states that the Fiesta B3 platform was initiated by Ford. Mazda's code is DE, D- meaning the chassis code, and E- meaning 5th generation. They vaguely mention Mazda engineers, but boastfully mention "Dearborn" etc etc. Firstly, this arrangement is very unlike Ford, which has consistently used Mazda platforms to base their cars on since the mid 70s. I can't recall one actual Japan built Mazda model to use a Ford engineered chassis. Even the tribute is an adulteration of the Mazda G chassis (626) (GE to be exact). It's been widely pushed (and hard by Ford) to get this idea that the Mazda 3 (BK chassis. K being a generation evolution) was heavily influenced by Ford. Again, this doesn't make much sense, primarily because it's performance is so uncharacteristic of Ford, and Ford seems to have arrogantly slapped their "FoMoCo" logo on little knick knacks used on the JAPAN built Mazda 3 (like spark plugs, DBW throttle body, brake calipers etc). This really leaves people confused, thinking Ford did all the work. Ford never does all the work! Ford is a wizard with profits, brokering engineering and high-dollar marketing psychology.

That aside, what I'd like to know is: How does an alleged Ford led project and Ford chassis get to market AS A MAZDA one full year before Ford's own version does? Does that make sense to anyone? The Mazda2/Demio was fully selling worldwide and winning international awards before the design of the Fiesta was even finished. I think Ford is fibbing to journalist$. I think Ford is using their political power to take advantage of the honest engineers and humble corporate presence of, what you'd think to be, their friends at Mazda. The Ford Fusion is as much a Mazda as the Ford Probe. The Fusion singlehandedly began Fords renaissance as a company with some actual quality and driving dynamic. Coincidence? Too much of a coincidence. I'd like to see another reference to the project, than that one SAE article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.206.8.142 (talk) 03:03, 9 August 2010 (UTC)

Mazda 2 and Yaris
To make matters even more confusing, the Mazda2 is now made by Toyota in Mexico on the Yaris platform (or is it vice versa?), but no longer sold in Canada or the USA as a Mazda, but only as a Yaris (or Scion in the USA). Santamoly (talk) 22:04, 12 July 2016 (UTC)

Mexican Yaris R
I'm tagging the discussion of the Mexican Yaris R model with a failed verification tag because—although my Spanish is a little rusty—the Héctor Mañón article on autocosmos.com does not appear to discuss the Belta and Vios sedans being marketed in Mexico under the Yaris nameplate. Can anyone verify this information from another source? Carguychris (talk) 15:48, 30 March 2018 (UTC)
 * I've added a published source with a discussion of the Mexican-market Yaris R vs. the Yaris Sedán. However, the section still has a couple of problems with verification. First, there is no citation for the detailed discussion of Mexican Yaris R options; the cited Toyota of Mexico press release only states that the car is sold in 3 versions, with no discussion of the differences between them. Second, the Voelcker article states that the Yaris R is sold in Puerto Rico, but does not actually discuss why. Further citations are still needed. Carguychris (talk) 17:58, 9 April 2018 (UTC)

Title swap
As the "Demio" nameplate will be discontinued in Japan for the 2019 facelift model and will be renamed to "Mazda2", I think this article should be title-swapped with Mazda2 and separate the first generation/121 model to its own article. Any thoughts? Source 182.30.116.212 (talk) 13:43, 16 July 2019 (UTC)
 * It's customary on Wikipedia to name articles according to the model name used in the home market. I would prefer to leave this article basically as-is, create a new Mazda2 article for the subsequent renamed generations, and link back to this article for previous Mazda2/Demio generations; see Toyota Yaris for an example. Carguychris (talk) 13:10, 17 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Customary? I disagree with this. I do agree with the title swap, so it should be split into two articles. 189.139.231.187 (talk) 23:19, 11 October 2019 (UTC)

 * 1996-2019 and 4 generations, vs a few months. The balance looks to fall on the side of keeping the old name. A redirect for the new name can lead to here. No need to split the article because of the new name.  Stepho  talk 23:55, 11 October 2019 (UTC)

Can somebody split this article?
Can this article be split into two pages, Mazda Demio and Mazda 2, or rename this? The 2 is no longer called Demio in Japan. 189.139.231.187 (talk) 23:18, 11 October 2019 (UTC)

 * We don't split an article just because of a name change. A WP:REDIRECT is the normal way to handle it. Of course, whether the new name is applied to the article or the redirect is always up for discussion, as per the previous talk topic.  Stepho  talk 23:52, 11 October 2019 (UTC)

Rename page to Mazda2
As this vehicle is no longer called the Demio, I think this article should be renamed to Mazda2. 73.2.129.126 (talk) 18:38, 9 April 2021 (UTC)

 * Yes. I will create a move request. Blaze The Wolf | Proud Furry and Wikipedia Editor (talk) 18:54, 9 April 2021 (UTC)

 * This is a contested technical request (permalink). Blaze The Wolf | Proud Furry and Wikipedia Editor (talk) 19:36, 9 April 2021 (UTC)

The discussion above is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
 * Hmmmm - perhaps there should be a split rather than a rename, as the first gen was never called "Mazda 2" anywhere. Demio could cover the first generation in detail, with a Set Index section to mention and link the remaining generations. Like at Mitsubishi Lancer.  Mr.choppers |   ✎  19:59, 9 April 2021 (UTC)
 * I think that would be a good idea. Also the reason I put the article to be moved to as Mazda2 or Mazda 2 was because I was unsure which style would be better to use for the article. Mr.choppers, Do you have any suggestions for as to how to do this? Blaze The Wolf | Proud Furry and Wikipedia Editor (talk) 20:02, 9 April 2021 (UTC)
 * I do not, but I reckon it should follow whatever style used by Mazda most recently.  Mr.choppers |   ✎  20:03, 9 April 2021 (UTC)
 * I'm pretty sure that would be Mazda2 then. ANd since you don't maybe we should wait for other editors to find this. Blaze The Wolf | Proud Furry and Wikipedia Editor (talk) 20:05, 9 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Mild oppose - The argument for a split is more reasonable, but that can be discussed elsewhere another time. Currently this article is discussing a lineage which originates with the first generation Mazda Demio and which has been known as the Demio in its home market for most of its history. The Demio nameplate arguably has the most long-standing cultural relevancy thanks to Gran Turismo. HumanBodyPiloter5 (talk) 16:32, 10 April 2021 (UTC)
 * I agree with you in that a split is more reasonable. However, when the article calls it Mazda 2 in the template then maybe Mazda2 is the more well-known name. Blaze The Wolf | Proud Furry and Wikipedia Editor (talk) 13:17, 12 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Why does the link says "Mazda2 or Mazda 2" at the top? It should be one or the other as it makes it confusing. 73.2.129.126 (talk) 14:35, 15 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Fixed. ~  Aseleste  (t, e | c, l) 19:30, 16 April 2021 (UTC)

Split
Blaze The Wolf (and other interested editors), I am going to be bold and move ahead with the split. No need to request a technical move for a split, and I have seen no real opposition to it.  Mr.choppers |  ✎  20:48, 16 April 2021 (UTC)
 * If anyone wants to create stub sections with specific Demio content, I welcome that. Best,  Mr.choppers |   ✎  21:24, 16 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Go ahead. I was hoping someone would help us out with doing a split anyways cause I had no clue how. Blaze The Wolf | Proud Furry and Wikipedia Editor (talk) 21:41, 16 April 2021 (UTC)

New England Tea Men

The New England Tea Men were an American professional soccer team based in Greater Boston. They played in the North American Soccer League (NASL) from 1978 to 1980. Their home venues for outdoor play were Schaefer Stadium (shared with the NFL's New England Patriots) in Foxborough, Massachusetts, and Nickerson Field near Boston University. They also played one season of indoor soccer in the NASL, using the Providence Civic Center for home games.

The Tea Men were originally owned by Unilever's Lipton subsidiary and given their unusual name as a nod to both the company's product line and the Boston Tea Party.

The Tea Men won their division in 1978 and made a further playoff run in 1980. However, the team struggled for financial solvency in Massachusetts. Right at the start of the 1980–81 indoor season they relocated to Jacksonville, Florida and became the Jacksonville Tea Men.

History
Led in its initial season by former Charlton Athletic F.C. striker Mike Flanagan, the Tea Men won their division to much public acclaim, with Flanagan winning the league MVP award.

Subsequent seasons proved not as successful for two important reasons. First, Flanagan, contracted to Charlton, remained in England (an attempt to secure him via a transfer failed, reportedly over endorsement rights). Second, the team was temporarily evicted from Schaefer Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts when the owners of Foxboro Raceway – located next door – claimed that the Tea Men's matches were causing traffic problems on racing dates.

After spending one unhappy season at Nickerson Field on the campus of Boston University, the team reached an accord with Foxboro Raceway to play in Foxboro, but not on racing dates. As a result, the Tea Men had to play many Monday night matches, which caused attendance to dwindle. At one home game during the 1980 season, only 254 fan attended a game, an all time low for the NASL.

After leaving New England, the team moved to Jacksonville, Florida and became the Jacksonville Tea Men.

Kevin Lepage

Kevin Paul Lepage (born June 26, 1962) is a retired American professional stock car racing driver, who last drove in NASCAR in 2014.

Early career
Lepage spent the 1980s driving in both the Busch North series and the Vermont-based American Canadian Tour series. He drove with occasional success in these series for the better part of 14 years. The highlight during this time was 3 victories at Vermont's Thunder Road International SpeedBowl in its famous "Milk Bowl" race in 1985, 1989 and 1993.

Early Busch Series career
Lepage made his Busch Series debut in 1986 at Oxford Plains Speedway, starting 41st and finishing 15th in the No. 09 Buick owned by Carl Merrill. He became a Busch Series regular in 1994, serving as an owner/driver in the No. 71 Vermont Teddy Bear Company car and running for Rookie of the Year honors. He had a best finish of 9th at New Hampshire International Speedway, in which he got a flat tire at the very end of the race, and finished 24th in points. The 1995 season resulted in five Top 10s and finishing 18th in points. At the end of the season, he lost his sponsorship and ran his own car in 1996 unsponsored until April. Lepage then joined David Ridling and his No. 88 Ridling Motorsports team with sponsorship from Ridling's own Farmer's Choice Fertilizer. He won his first career race at the season finale Jiffy Lube Miami 300 with Hype Energy sponsorship. He finished eighth in points with 1 win, three Top 5s and 10 Top 10s. He ran most of the 1997 season driving for Ridling before leaving due to the team losing its sponsor. Lepage would finish out the year running for Phoenix Racing and ST Motorsports. He finished 12th in points, posting three Top 5s and six Top 10s. Lepage had his Cup debut by qualifying for the Fall Charlotte race in the No. 91 LJ Racing car in an impressive 12th. He would also run the Fall Talladega and Atlanta races with finishes of 17th at Talladega and 29th at Atlanta.

Winston Cup 1998–2002
Lepage made the move to Winston Cup in 1998, driving for the LJ Racing team. Despite the team's lack of sponsorship, Lepage posted two fourteenth-place finishes, catching the eye of Jack Roush, owner of Roush Racing. Lepage announced his decision to depart LJ Racing in late June 1998 and sat out 6 races to work out the details of the new contract with Roush. He would drive the No. 16 Primestar-sponsored Ford Taurus in place of Ted Musgrave, who was released after Lepage's hiring. He earned a pair of top-10 finishes in 13 races for Roush, his best finish being a sixth place at Charlotte. Despite missing several races, he nearly won the 1998 Rookie of the Year title. Lepage also drove in the Busch Series for Doug Taylor's No. 40 team with sponsorship from Channellock. Lepage finished 14th in points despite only starting 24 races out of 31. Lepage won his second career race at the August Food City 250 at Bristol and won his first career pole at the June MBNA Platinum 200 at Dover. He finished the year with one win, six Top 5s and 10 Top 10s.

Lepage returned in 1999 with sponsorship from Primestar which switched to TV Guide in April after Primestar was sold to the General Motors-owned DirectTV. He had one top 5, two top-tens and won the pole at the season-ending NAPA 500, earning him a 25th-place points finish. The highlight of the season was a 5th-place finish in the Southern 500 which qualified him for the Winston No Bull 5 at Talladega. Lepage also ran in the Busch Series driving the No. 99 J&J Racing/Brewco Motorsports car with a sponsorship from Red Man. He finished 35th in points with 14 starts, two Top 5s and six Top 10s.

He began 2000 unsponsored, before picking up backing from FamilyClick.com. He failed to qualify twice and finished 28th in points with one Top 5 and three Top 10s with a best finish of 5th at Texas. At the end of the year, FamilyClick ended its backing and Roush closed the 16 team. That season Lepage restarted his No. 71 Busch team as Matrix Motorsports in a partnership with Brewco Motorsports with sponsorship from Red Man, Southern Pride Chewing Tobacco and State Fair Corn Dogs. He finished 42nd in points with 10 starts, one Top 5 and two Top 10s with a best finish of 3rd at Atlanta.

In 2001 Lepage returned to the Busch Series to run his own team, Matrix Motorsports, driving the No. 71 State Fair Corn Dogs/Ball Park Franks Ford. Running 15 races, he had one top-five (3rd at Fontana), four top-tens and a pole at Kansas Speedway. In addition to those races he drove for Phoenix Racing at Loudon (Finished 35th). His team also won the pole (Finished 8th) at Watkins Glen with Scott Pruett. He also returned to the Cup series, running the No. 4 Kodak Chevrolet for Morgan-McClure Motorsports, replacing Robby Gordon after five races. Lepage had a best finish of 11th (Texas) in 21 races with them. Late in the season, he switched to the No. 7 Nations Rent Ultra Motorsports Ford, posting a 10th-place finish at Talladega Superspeedway. Despite missing seven races, Lepage ended up 36th in points.

2002–2007
Early in 2002, Lepage's team went inactive due to a lack of sponsorship, even though he had an 8th at Daytona and a 4th at Las Vegas. He soon joined Brewco Motorsports, driving their No. 37 Timber Wolf Chevy. In 24 starts that year, he had six top-tens and two poles, finishing 25th in points. He also ran three Cup races, two in the No. 38 Quest Motor Racing Ford, and another for BAM Racing at Talladega in a car sponsored by Billy Ray Cyrus's show Doc. His best finish that year was a 40th at Loudon.

In 2003, Lepage ran his own team at the Cup level for one race, finishing 32nd at the Coca-Cola 600 along with the Winston Open. He ran two races that year for CLR Racing, where he had a fourth place start at Michigan, before returning to Morgan-McClure to finish the year, his best finish a fourteenth at Atlanta. He teamed with Morgan-McClure again in 2004, but after six races, Lepage departed due to a lack of sponsorship. He then signed with Competitive Edge Motorsports, posting a best finish of 41st twice, before leaving the team. He ended the season with R&J Racing, where he had a best finish of 27th at Phoenix International Raceway. He also ran eleven races in the Busch Series for MacDonald Motorsports, where he had two top-fifteen finishes.

In 2005, Lepage returned to R&J, and started the season off with a third-place finish in the Gatorade Duels and a ninth-place finish at the Daytona 500. Unfortunately, the closest Lepage came to another top 10 was a 12th-place finish at Lowe's Motor Speedway in the Coca-Cola 600, and was released from the ride after the Brickyard 400. He signed with Peak Performance Racing for the balance of the year, and had a sixth-place qualifying effort at Kansas. He finished the season 39th in points. He also ran six races with MacDonald in the Busch Series as well, posting a ninth-place finish at Lowe's. That year, Lepage made his debut in the Craftsman Truck Series for Green Light Racing at Dover finishing 19th.

Lepage returned to Peak for 2006, but due to a lack of funding, the team was sold to Front Row Motorsports in April. Lepage ran a couple of races for FRM before leaving for BAM Racing. He ran 12 races for BAM with a best finish of 21st at Bristol Motor Speedway before leaving them. Lepage then rejoined Front Row Motorsports making two of the final eight races in their No. 34 and No. 61 cars. He ended up 40th in points even with missing 14 races. He also ran a limited schedule in the Busch Series for Mac Hill Motorsports with a best finish of 19th in seven races. Lepage ran two races for Green Light Racing in the Craftsman Truck Series with a best finish of 21st at Michigan. At the end of the year, Lepage sold the remnants of Matrix Motorsports to start a lawn care business called Matrix Lawn and Landscaping.

In 2007, Lepage started the year driving the No. 34 Front Row Motorsports car in the races where the team could afford to run two cars. Starting in late April, Front Row would mainly run the No. 37 car with Lepage making most of the attempts. In 27 attempts, Lepage was only able to make two races; at Darlington and New Hampshire Motor Speedway. He also drove a part-time schedule for a few teams in the Busch Series including the No. 52 Means Racing Ford, as well as some additional races for Randy MacDonald and D.D.L. Motorsports with a best finish of 28th at Watkins Glen. Lepage also had two starts for Team Racing in the Craftsman Truck Series with a best finish of 35th at Texas.

2008–2017
Lepage returned to driving full-time in the Nationwide Series (formerly known as the Busch Series) in 2008, driving for Specialty Racing. While racing for Specialty, Lepage made one of the most controversial moves in the history of NASCAR at Talladega when he proceeded to pull off pit road and directly in front of the entire field which was bearing down on him at almost 200 mph triggering a 15 car accident. Lepage blamed it on the spotter for every other team stating "nobody recognized my car was damaged and vastly underpowered," but later apologized for the accident himself. Lepage was released by Specialty after the July Daytona race and was replaced by Brandon Whitt. The following race at Chicagoland, he failed to qualify a car brought by Front Row Motorsports. After he failed to qualify, Lepage drove the No. 52 Means Racing entry for Brad Teague in order to maintain his position in the driver's points. He then attempted to race at Gateway in Mike Harmon's No. 84 Chevrolet, but failed to qualify. Later in the season, he was hired to drive the No. 73 for Derrike Cope, and finished the season 28th in driver's points, despite missing 8 races. Lepage ran one Truck Series race at Homestead for Green Light Racing finishing 35th. He began the 2009 season without a full-time ride, but after running Derrike Cope's No. 73 at Bristol, Lepage joined Jimmy Means' team at Texas in April until leaving after the June race at New Hampshire. He then joined Derrike Cope's team for the rest of the season at Chicago primarily driving the No. 78, but also occasionally driving the No. 73. Lepage also ran one race for Green Light Racing at Dover in the Camping World Truck Series finishing 33rd, his most recent start in that series to date.

Lepage announced on February 5, 2010, that he would be returning to Mac Hill Motorsports for the 2010 season with sponsorship from Revolucion World Wide/Start Energy Drink. Unfortunately the sponsorship deal fell through after four races and the team was forced to "start and park" races in order to keep costs down. Even with this measure, finances forced the team to start skipping races by mid year. The team partnered up with RaceDaySponsor.com in order to give local sponsors an opportunity to be a sponsor each week. This earned the team finances to get to the track, but not enough to run full races. When the Mac Hill team was unable to get to the track, Lepage got to run some races for No. 52 Jimmy Means Racing Chevrolet (made four out of five attempts) and No. 04 Davis Motorsports Chevrolet at Road America. Even with the limited finances, Lepage was able to make 25 out of 31 race attempts and ended up 40th in points.

In 2010, Lepage was in a Sprint Cup car for the first time since 2007. Lepage joined back up with Morgan-McClure Motorsports to run the Irwin Tools Night Race at Bristol with sponsorship from Alpha Natural Resources/Joy Mining Machinery. Lepage was unable to qualify for the race.

On November 20, 2010, Mac Hill Motorsports announced that it was discontinuing its Nationwide Series team, allowing Lepage to seek another ride.

On January 10, 2011, Lepage announced that he would drive for Team Rensi Motorsports No. 24 team in the Nationwide Series, bringing sponsorship from RaceDaySponsor.com, marking the first time since 2008 that Lepage would run a full race distance. Not enough sponsorship was found and the team was forced to start and park four of the five races they ran. After the spring Texas race, they closed down. On April 26, Lepage announced that he would be joining Means Racing starting at Richmond and would work with the team to procure more sponsorship for the rest of the season. Sponsorship was found to allow Lepage to run 17 races without having to start and park, with a best finish of 20th at Phoenix. Lepage finished 27th in Points, which was his best finish since 2008.

In February 2012, Lepage announced that Race Day Sponsor.com and himself were no longer working together. Lepage wasn't able to start his season until securing a ride in the No. 28 Robinson-Blakeney Racing for the 4th and 5th races of the season at Bristol and California with a best finish of 31st at Bristol. That team shut down but Lepage was able to start and park the next weeks race at Texas with Mike Harmon Racing's No. 74. The next three weeks Lepage drove the No. 52 Means Racing car at Richmond, Talladega and Darlington with a best finish of 27th at Richmond. Lepage then substituted in Tri-Star Motorsports start and park No. 10 for the next 4 races highlighted by qualifying efforts of 25th at Dover and Michigan. After the sub job ended, Lepage start and parked for Means Racing at Kentucky. Lepage then joined the Deware Racing Group in their No. 86. In preparation for the 2013 season, the team ran a limited schedule of 9 of the final 17 races. Due to a lack of sponsorship the team start and parked 7 of the nine races, though with sponsorship from Qello at Bristol and Kengor Metals at Charlotte the team had finishes of 20th and 26th respectively. Lepage ended up 35th in points with only running 20 of 33 races.

The 2013 season started with the Deware Racing Group unable to secure sponsorship, which left them mostly inactive and Lepage starting the season without a ride. It took to the third race of season at Las Vegas for Lepage to get a ride with No. 74 Mike Harmon Racing for that race and weeks later at Texas with a best finish of 28th at Texas. Three weeks later, Lepage start and parked for Means Racing at Darlington. In June at Iowa, Lepage drove the No. 87 NEMCO Motorsports car in practice in preparation for owner/driver Joe Nemechek to arrive from Pocono Raceway to run the race. Due to the Iowa race being delayed a day cause of rain, Lepage got to drive the 87 to a 19th-place finish while Nemechek drove at Pocono. Lepage would finish the season start and parking the No. 74 in four races, failing to qualify the No. 86 at Bristol and running JD Motorsports's No. 4 car in races at Mid-Ohio and Kentucky with finishes of 20th and 19th respectively. Lepage ended up 39th in points with only running 10 of 33 races.

Lepage started the 2014 season without a ride. Starting with the third race of the season at Las Vegas, Lepage drove the No. 74 Mike Harmon Racing Dodge. He drove for them through the fifth race of the season at California with a best finish of 30th at California. Lepage joined JD Motorsports in their No. 87 for the next three races. His best finish was a 19th at Darlington, but the ride ended when the 87 team's only car was wrecked at Richmond. Lepage drove the 74 at Charlotte but finished 39th due to a rear gear failure. Lepage later drove start and park efforts for Tri-Star Motorsports at Michigan and JGL Racing at Elkhart Lake. Starting at Kentucky in June, Lepage drove the Mike Harmon Racing No. 74 at six race weekends until Richmond in September with a best finish of 33rd at New Hampshire to go with 2 DNQ's. Lepage would make his last career start with TriStar Motorsports at Dover finishing 31st. Lepage did attempt to qualify at Homestead with Mike Harmon Racing but failed to qualify.

Lepage was unable to find sponsorship to compete in NASCAR after the 2014 season and instead focused on his business interests. On March 21, 2017, Lepage announced he would run in the 55th Milk Bowl on October 1, 2017, at Thunder Road International SpeedBowl with Boyce Racing in what is hinted at as his final race. On August 23, 2017, Lepage announced State Water Heaters, Citgo, Vermont Teddy Bear Company, Allen Lumber and Shearer Chevrolet as the sponsors for his final race. Unfortunately for Lepage, he had to run the Last Chance qualifying race due to a slow qualifying speed. Due to a spin during that race, Lepage came up two positions short of being able to compete in the 55th Milk Bowl.

Personal life
Lepage was born in Shelburne in Vermont on June 26, 1962. He was the only stock car driver from Vermont competing in the NASCAR Winston Cup Series in the 1990s. Lepage is a practicing Catholic.

Princess Muna Al Hussein

Princess Muna Al Hussein (منى الحسين, born Toni Avril Gardiner; 25 April 1941) is the mother of Abdullah II of Jordan. She was the second wife of King Hussein; the couple divorced on 21 December 1972. She is British by birth, and changed her name to Muna Al Hussein upon marriage.

Early life
Muna Al Hussein was born in Chelmondiston, Suffolk, England, the daughter of Doris Elizabeth (née Sutton) and Lieutenant Colonel Walter Percy "Tony" Gardiner. She attended Bourne School in Kuala Lumpur, Malaya, which was administered by the British Families Education Service for the children of British service personnel stationed overseas, where she was an A-grade field hockey player.

Gardiner's father was a British Army officer who finished his career with the rank of Lieutenant Colonel. He was the son of Arthur Gardiner, a gamekeeper. He joined the Royal Engineers at the age of 17, and was stationed in Mandatory Palestine for 18 months in the 1930s. He later served in France, North Africa, and Italy during World War II.

Marriage and children
Gardiner met the King of Jordan, Hussein, while working as a secretarial assistant on the film set of Lawrence of Arabia. The King had allowed his troops to work as extras on this film and would occasionally visit to monitor the production's progress. However, there is another report, stating that Gardiner and the King met when her father began to work as a military adviser in Jordan.

Gardiner married King Hussein in Amman, Jordan, on 25 May 1961. It is believed she was not proclaimed queen because the government disapproved of the marriage because of her foreign origin. Together they had four children:

 * Abdullah (born 1962; now King Abdullah II of Jordan)
 * Faisal (born 1963)
 * Aisha and Zein (twins, born 1968)

They were divorced on 21 December 1972. She continues to work and live in Jordan.

Causes and activities
She is involved in the development of nursing in Jordan, founding the Princess Muna Scholarship Fund for Nursing. In 1962, she founded the Princess Muna College of Nursing, now the Princess Muna College of Nursing and Allied Health Professions.
