Gloucester–Newport line

The Gloucester–Newport line is a railway line that runs along the west bank of the River Severn in the United Kingdom between Gloucester and Newport.

Originally part of the South Wales Railway on the main route from London before the construction of the Severn Tunnel; today it is an important link between the West Midlands and South Wales.

Route
The places served by the route are:
 * Gloucester
 * Connections along the Golden Valley line to Swindon
 * Lydney
 * Connection with Dean Forest Railway
 * Chepstow
 * Caldicot
 * Severn Tunnel Junction located in Rogiet
 * Newport
 * Connections with South Wales Main Line and Welsh Marches line

Local passenger services are currently provided by Transport for Wales, with an approximately hourly service in each direction on the Cheltenham Spa to Maesteg service. These are supplemented by CrossCountry services between Cardiff Central and Nottingham, which serve Gloucester and Newport, serving either Lydney or Chepstow then fast to Newport for example. The intermediate stations are omitted except during the early morning and late evening.

Although Caldicot and Severn Tunnel Junction stations are only 3/4 mi apart, Caldicot's growth as a dormitory for the new Llanwern steelworks kept it open in 1964 when other small stations were closed under The Reshaping of British Railways. Severn Tunnel Junction had important roles at this time as the junction for the Severn Tunnel, the large coal marshalling yards and a new diesel depot, replacing the previous steam locomotive depot. Severn Tunnel Junction also serves the village of Rogiet and is where this line merges with the South Wales Main Line through the Severn Tunnel, so it is also a stop on the Cardiff Central-Bristol Temple Meads-Taunton/Penzance service.

In 1977 the Parliamentary Select Committee on Nationalised Industries recommended considering electrification of more of Britain's rail network, and by 1979 BR presented a range of options to do so by 2000. Options included electrifying numerous former Great Western routes including the Gloucester to Newport line. Under the 1979–90 Conservative governments that succeeded the 1976–79 Labour government the proposal was not implemented.

Accidents and incidents

 * On 16 February 1880, a freight train was derailed when it was in collision with a large rock that had fallen onto the line 1.5 mi south of Chepstow station, Monmouthshire.

Nothing but the Truth: A Documentary Novel

Nothing but the Truth: A Documentary Novel is a 1991 novel written by Avi. The novel is historical fiction. It tells the story of an incident in a fictional New Hampshire town where a boy is suspended for humming the United States National Anthem as well as the effects of this story receiving national publicity. The main theme of the novel is the subjectivity of truth and that while individual statements may be true, taken separately they may not give an accurate picture of an event.

Nothing but the Truth won a 1992 Newbery Honor. The novel was later adapted into a play.

Plot
Philip Malloy is a track-obsessed ninth grader at Harrison High School in New Hampshire. After receiving a D on his English test, Philip blames it on his English teacher, Ms. Narwin. Since he is no longer eligible to try out for the track team, he avoids telling his parents and instead pretends that he no longer has an interest in trying out. Throughout his time in school, his number of class time disturbances increases.

One day, he begins humming the national anthem rather than maintaining respectful silence. Ms. Narwin asks him to stop multiple times. After three days of this behavior, he is suspended and given the chance to apologize to Ms. Narwin for his disrespect towards her. After Philip refuses, Vice Principal Dr. Palleni is called by district mandated procedure to suspend him. Philip tells his parents that he was suspended for 'singing' the National Anthem. Philip's father, Mr. Malloy, shares this with their neighbor, Ted Griffen, who is running for the school board. He arranges an interview between Philip and local journalist Ms. Stewart. Ms. Stewart investigates Philip's suspension story and ultimately publishes a newspaper article depicting the school's actions in an unpatriotic light.

Ms. Stewart's slanted newspaper article quickly garners national attention when it is picked up by the Associated Press, leading many to laud Philip for his patriotism and condemn the school's (alleged) attempts to stymie it. A reporter attempts to cover Ms. Narwin's side of the story, but her article is buried during an international crisis. In the midst of the controversy, Ms. Narwin is asked to 'take a break from teaching,' and she reluctantly agrees. This is soon followed by her resignation.

Meanwhile, Harrison School District faces a critical school board election bearing significant implications over the school's finances. With funding already in shortage, there is an urgent concern that the school could suffer greatly from further budget cuts. After using Philip's story as a platform, Ted Griffen is elected to the Harrison School District board. However, he declines to extend much-needed funding to Harrison High School in a demonstration of disapproval for their handling of Philip's incident.

When Philip returns to school, he has trouble adjusting to his dubious notoriety and becomes an outcast. His peers resent him for his role in the dismissal of Ms. Narwin and his invitation of a media firestorm on the Harrison community. He is harassed by other students both on the bus and in the classroom while his crush, Allison, openly resents him for the removal of her favorite teacher, Ms. Narwin. Philip is soon informed by a friend that the student body has begun drafting a petition with the intention to compel him into revealing the truth about the incident (an idea that originated from the track coach, Coach Jamison). This propels Philip into a breaking point and he begins skipping school, causing concern from his parents.

Philip ultimately decides to transfer to a private school, Washington Academy, despite protests from his father, as the tuition would use up all of his college funds and savings. The book ends in an incident at Philip's new school, where he is asked to lead his classmates in singing "The National Anthem". He cries and admits that he does not know the words.

Employee pricing

Employee pricing is a selling strategy launched in 2005 by the auto industry to attract customers by using the discounted prices that auto industry employees pay for new cars rather than the sticker price MSRP. The program was first offered that year by General Motors, and later followed by Ford, Chrysler, and some local dealerships. While 2005 was the biggest year for the promotion, it has since been used several times, like during the automotive industry crisis of 2008 to stimulate sales.

Chrysler was the most notable of all during this promotion, with its "Employee Pricing Plus". Characterized by generous incentives combined with rebates on most Chrysler, Dodge, and Jeep models, Chrysler claims their offer bests those "employee discount" prices offered by General Motors or Ford Motor Company.

Lee Iacocca is the celebrity spokesman for the campaign; he appears in summer 2005 ads with Jason Alexander, Snoop Dogg, and his granddaughter.

According to its TV ads and website, the world's first employee pricing program for customers was instituted by The Brick, a Canadian furniture store.

Starting on July 1, 2006, Chrysler reinstituted the Employee Pricing Plus program to run from July 1 to July 31. For the first five days of the program, all Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep dealerships in the United States were open until midnight to support the program, a first in the company's history.

The discounted prices however do not impact profits much, as the margins are recovered with higher sales and better contribution to fixed costs.

Chrysler reinstated employee pricing price starting January 26th, 2009.

Or do you mean the amount of vandalism (e.g. inserting random keystrokes in the middle of paragraphs, adding nonsense like the word "fag" into a paragraph about a character, etc., etc.)?  In any case, the "level" of vandalism (whatever that means) may be "low", but it's still annoying.  Just saying.

CKHJ

CKHJ (1260 AM) is a radio station in Fredericton, New Brunswick, Canada. The station broadcasts a country format under the Pure Country branding. The station is owned by Bell Media which also owns sister stations CFXY-FM and CIBX-FM. There are two rebroadcasters of CKHJ on FM due to the AM station's weak signal to the south and east of the city: CKHJ-1-FM on 95.1 in New Maryland, and CKHJ-2-FM in 103.5 in Oromocto. All three transmitters can be heard over most of Fredericton, effectively creating a simulcast. CKHJ uses on the air-branding of Pure Country 103.5 (a name adopted on May 28, 2019, as part of a country-wide format reorganization by Bell that also involved CKTY-FM and 11 other stations ), referencing the frequency of CKHJ-2-FM, which is a rimshot signal.

Based on the current format, CKHJ competes with Stingray-owned CFRK-FM.

History
The station at 1260 AM first signed on August 19, 1977 as CIHI. In June 2000, the station swapped frequencies with what was then CKHJ-FM, with CIHI assuming CKHJ's 105.3 frequency and CKHJ moving to 1260 AM. CIHI-FM would subsequently become CFXY-FM.

CKHJ, along with CIHI, was owned by Radio One Ltd. from its creation until 1999, when they were sold to Telemedia Communications. Telemedia then sold the stations to Astral Media in 2002. Current owners Bell Media acquired the stations from Astral Media in 2013.

The station's transmitter is on Royal Road, northwest of Fredericton.

On November 27, 2008, CKHJ applied to increase the signal of CKHJ-2-FM Oromocto. The station received approval on January 26, 2009.

On August 20, 2020, Bell Media submitted an application to reduce CKHJ's nighttime AM signal from 10,000 watts to 32 watts, while the daytime power would remain at 10,000 watts. CKHJ will remain at 1260 kHz. This application was approved on October 29, 2020.

Acarai Mountains

The Acarai Mountains (also, Akarai Mountains) (Serra do Acaraí; Montes Acaraí) are a wet, forested highland region of low mountains located in the southern part of Guyana. This range lies along the common border between Guyana and Brazil. The Acarai Mountains is one of four mountain ranges in Guyana, the others being the Imataka, Kanuku and Pakaraima mountains. The headwaters of the Essequibo River, the longest river in Guyana, and the Courantyne River, have their sources in this range. The actual source of the Essequibo was discovered in 2013 by a Guyanese-German team. The mountain range was first mentioned in 1821 by A.H. Brué as Sierra do Acaray.

This range is home to a single village of Wai-Wais, the descendants of surviving tribes that were once believed extinct. The village was first mentioned around 1837.

The unnamed high point of this range is located at 1.36667°N, -59.18333°W, and has an altitude of 1009 m. This range extends to the east, where it becomes the Tumuk Humak Mountains along the border of Suriname and French Guiana with Brazil.

Vorort

 * See Tagsatzung for the meaning in historical Switzerland.

Vorort (plural: Vororte) is a German term that could be considered roughly equivalent to a suburb as that term is understood in Britain and North America (but not in Australia and New Zealand, where a "suburb" of a city is necessarily within the city). Vororte usually have their own business centre. They are the remainders of formerly separate neighbour towns, or have been founded as satellite towns. The term is contrasted with Vorstadt, which describes a more densely populated area grown at the outline of a city centre.

Switzerland
In Swiss history, Vorort referred to the temporary "presidency" of a canton or the cantonal capital. During the Old Swiss Confederacy, the canton or city that convened the Tagsatzung and chaired it was called the Vorort. In the 15th century, the city of Zürich became the de facto Vorort of the Confederacy. Since the Reformation in Switzerland, Lucerne became the Vorort of the Catholic cantons. With the 1798 establishment of the Helvetic Republic the Vororte were abolished and instead Aarau was made capital city, then Lucerne, then Bern. After the Act of Mediation, the "Vorort of Switzerland" would rotate each year between the capital of Aarau and the cities of Zürich, Bern, Lucerne, Fribourg, Solothurn and Basel. In 1815, the choice of Vororte was restricted to Zürich, Bern and Lucerne, who in turn served as biennial seat of government until 1847. In 1848, Bern became the permanent seat of the Swiss Federal Government and thus the de facto capital of Switzerland.

Vienna
In Vienna, the historical terms Vorstädte and Vororte have very specific meanings. The Vorstädte were located outside the city walls, but within the Linienwall, a second ring of fortifications outside the city. The city walls were located in the place of the modern Ringstraße, while the Linienwall has been removed to give way to the Gürtel (both being rings of streets around the central city). All of the historical municipalities were merged into Vienna during the late 19th century. The former Vororte, which have in large parts become as urban as the Vorstädte, now make up Vienna's so-called outer districts (10th to 19th and 21st to 23rd district).

Talk:Clavinova

It would be great if there were more info on the different models. Where are you guys getting the June 2007 new release information? I can't seem to figure out on Yamaha's site when these models are released and how long they've been around.

Although I love my Clavinova, this article reads more like an advertisement than an encyclopedia article. Unless anyone objects, or unless anyone gets there first, I propose to make it more objective. So, for example, it would begin with something like: "The Clavinova is the brand name of a digital piano produced by the Yamaha Corporation." Grafen 23:02, 11 July 2005 (UTC)

I can't find anything to support this - and what this fellow Yoshi "built" all of them? He can't have built them - that makes no sense.

Revision of the article
Before I get further into this- I have to say- this article is a mess. Let me do this from beginning to end. First, define voice(on many keyboards it relates to polyphony) as a sound playable from the clavinova. Next, a lot of the old clavinovas used an AE(action effect) keyboard(note:I am getting a lot of this from usa.yamaha.com). Then, for the styles, who were around in rhythm and ABC (Auto bass chord ) from the start, though not as many. Please note that. And please update the current models as the CVP-700series is out. Then there is a keyboard section that needs work. First, that so-called LNW thing is just plain rubbish. By that, I mean that it is called 88-key linear graded hammers and they're a feature like synthetic ivory key tops (which, by the way, you should talk about there), and not a keyboard type on the clavinovas. There is also a NWX, like the NW keys but with escapement. Finally, show the latest models of the clavinovas in that table, to find out what to put go to Yamaha.com, and all of them have escapement. I have little concern over the section on sound generation, except that you should define and add a part on VRM (to find out more, visit Yamaha's website) and update the models. A couple last things. I'm concerned about the models shown in the tables, some of the ones that are shown are too outdated. Add recent to current as most of the ones shown are discontinued and none of them are current. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 166.170.39.100 (talk) 16:55, 18 July 2015 (UTC)

Improve the page history
The so called "history" is not really a history. What I mean is that it just lists the models and doesn't even have any more content.166.170.39.100 (talk) 00:23, 19 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Continuing from what I was saying earlier, it isn't very detailed, and you should note major advancement over time, like the major incorporation of LCDs on the CVP 49/59/69/79 and CLP-500 series (latest model), and other additions such as the RGE sound engine, VRM, and touch-screens. And by-the-way, the CLP-200 series is obsolete and shouldn't be in the tables. 71.212.13.116 (talk) 15:30, 22 July 2015 (UTC)

Clavitone
I'm actively sitting in front of a (lower-end AFAICT) Clavinova which has only 5 instrument settings. In order of the buttons: Piano (the default), Clavi. Tone, E. Piano, Harpsichord, and Pipe Organ. Piano, E. Piano, Harpsichord, and Pipe Organ are all familiar, but "Clavi. Tone" (which I read as "Clavitone" at first) seems to be exclusive to this device. I don't think I've ever heard an instrument like it, so is this one invented by Yamaha that only their keyboards support? Hppavilion1 (talk) 16:47, 28 March 2017 (UTC)
 * Update: Further investigation leads me to the Clavichord, which is most likely what it is. Hppavilion1 (talk) 16:47, 28 March 2017 (UTC)

Sound sampling
The information about the sound sampling is lacking. For example, what is the difference between level 3, level 4 and level 5 of CF? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 145.132.75.218 (talk) 21:11, 21 August 2017 (UTC)

CLP 320
According to the owner's manual the sound source is "AWM Stereo Sampling" 93.38.49.161 (talk) 21:11, 9 December 2022 (UTC)

 * Wait! The owner's manual of the CLP S306 S308 340/340/370 shows that the "Tone Generation Technology" is "AWM Dynamic Stereo Sampling" with 3 or 4 number of dynamic steps. On the manual of the CLP-380 I read AWM dynamic stereo sampling with 5 dynamic levels. 93.38.49.161 (talk) 22:05, 9 December 2022 (UTC)

Einar Jonasson

Einar Sigurjon Jonasson (17 June 1887 – 8 July 1935) was a politician in Manitoba, Canada. He served in the Legislative Assembly of Manitoba from 1932 to 1935, as a member of the Manitoba Liberal Party.

Jonasson was born in Mountain, North Dakota, the son of Einar Jonasson and Jonina Sigfusdottir, both Icelandic immigrants. His family moved to Canada in 1888, and he was educated at Vernon, British Columbia, and Gimli, Manitoba. He married Anna Tergersen. Jonasson served as clerk for Gimli from 1908 to 1920, as chair of the Gimli school board from 1918 to 1923 and as mayor of the Town of Gimli from 1924 to 1926. He also became the secretary-treasurer of the Rural Municipality of Gimli in 1911, and continued to hold this office into his career in the legislature.

Jonasson first campaigned for the Manitoba legislature in the 1914 provincial election as a Manitoba Liberal in the Gimli constituency, and lost to Conservative candidate Sveinn Thorvaldson by 584 votes. He was nominated again in the 1915 election, but withdrew before the vote. Jonasson campaigned a second time in the 1927 election, and lost to Ingimar Ingaldson of the Progressive Party by 225 votes.

In 1932, the governing Progressives formed an electoral alliance with the Liberals. Although he supported the alliance at the provincial level, Jonasson nonetheless challenged Ingaldson to represent the Gimli constituency in the 1932 election. He was successful on his third attempt, defeating Ingaldson by 271 votes.

Jonasson died in office in Gimli at the age of 48 after an extended illness.

Stithians

Stithians (Stedhyans), also known as St Stythians, is a village and civil parish in Cornwall, England, United Kingdom. It lies in the middle of the triangle bounded by Redruth, Helston and Falmouth. Its population (2001) is 2,004, increasing to 2,101 at the 2011 census An electoral ward in the same name also exists but stretches north to St Day. The population here also at the 2011 census was 5,023.

The parish is mainly agricultural, lying south of the Gwennap mining area and north of the quarrying areas of Rame and Longdowns. The River Kennall runs through the parish. In the 19th century, this river worked a flour mill and a number of gunpowder mills, machinery at a foundry, and a paper mill.

Parish church
The parish church is dedicated to Saint Stythian, who has been hard to identify. References to the parish in 13th and 14th century records show various spellings: Stethyana, Stediana, Stedyan, Stediane and Stidianus. The Rev. Sabine Baring-Gould's Cornish Dedications (1906) makes a connection with Saint Etaine of Tumna in Ireland, while Rev Michael Warner (Vicar of Stithians 1983-1993) suggests Saint Stephen. The saint's feast day is the Sunday nearest to 10 July, and Stithians Show is held on the Monday following Feast Sunday.

There has been a church on the site since the 6th century, but the oldest part of the current church is 14th-century; and the imposing tower was added in the 15th century. The former ecclesiastical parish of Carnmenellis is now merged with Stithians parish. The church has a large two manual pipe organ.

Cornish crosses
There are four Cornish crosses in the parish; they are in the vicarage garden, and at Repper's Mill and Trevalis. The cross at Repper's Mill has a crude crucifixus figure on the front and a Latin cross on the back. There are two crosses at Trevalis: both have a crude crucifixus figure on the front and a Latin cross on the back. One of the crosses formerly stood at Hendra Hill near the churchtown but was moved to Trevalis about 1860. Another cross stands in the grounds of Tretheague House.

Methodist churches
John Wesley visited Stithians in 1744–50 and brought Methodism to the parish. The Hendra Wesleyan Chapel was built in 1815 and after a division among the members, the Penmennor United Methodist Free Church was built, in 1866, just a few yards away.. Hendra Chapel closed in 1976.

Stithians Show
Stithians Show is one of the largest one-day agricultural shows in the UK: the show is held annually in July and the attendance is in excess of 20,000. Established in 1834, it has been held continuously since then (except for three years during World War I, five years during World War II, one year in 2001 due to the nationwide outbreak of foot and mouth disease and for 2 years in 2020 and 2021 due to the Covid-19 Pandemic). Until 1992, the Show was sited on fields in the centre of the village. Then the threat of rental increases as well as the show's increasing size encouraged the Agricultural Association to purchase its own land at Kennall Farm and establish a site there.

Musical ensembles
Music has always played a large part in village life. St Stythians Band (formerly St Stythians Silver Band) was founded in 1928 and became very successful in competitions in the 1960s and 1970s; during the summer months it gives weekly concerts at the Gyllyngdune Gardens in Falmouth. St Stythians Male Voice Choir was formed in 1919, only to be closed in 1926; but it was reformed in 1947 and since then has thrived, performing concerts throughout Cornwall and further afield. Stithians Ladies Choir was formed in 1966 and quickly established a high reputation. The band and choirs have made a number of successful recordings.

Philanthropy and recreation
Albert Collins (1859–1937) from Stithians travelled to South Africa in 1880 with his friend William Mountstephens from Falmouth; there their building business prospered and they contributed to many charitable institutions. In 1934, Albert Collins paid for the Playing Field, opposite the school in the centre of the village, which is still enjoyed by the children of Stithians today. The men also set up a Trust Fund under the control of the Methodist Church in South Africa, which was used to build a school in Johannesburg; the school, known as St Stithians College, opened in 1953.

Stithians Dam was completed in 1964 to create a 270 acre reservoir to the west of the village, which supplies water to a large part of the west of Cornwall. It is a place for bird-watching, fishing and water sports. Stithians has a rugby football club (founded in 1890) and a football club running two teams in the Trelawny League.

Cornish wrestling
There have been Cornish wrestling tournaments held in Stithians throughout the last 200 years. Tournaments have been held in the field adjoining the Seven Stars Inn, in a field next to the Hare and Hounds and near the foundry.

CJPN-FM

CJPN-FM is a French-language radio station in Fredericton, New Brunswick, Canada, broadcasting at 90.5 FM.

The station signed on in 1997 from its studios at Le Centre Communautaire Sainte-Anne (Fredericton).

CJPN broadcasts to a population of 13,360 French speakers in Fredericton.

CJPN airs live programming from its own studios, as well as francophone music from Quebec, Acadia and other regions.

In August 2015, CJPN announced that, after following a new strategic plan, revenues had increased substantially. As part of the changes, the company developed a strategic alliance with Miramichi's CKMA-FM and Saint John's CHQC-FM.

The station is a member of the Alliance des radios communautaires du Canada.

History
CJPN Radio, FM 90.5, allows Francophones in the provincial capital region to hear French music and local news. The idea of putting a community radio in place came in October 1990, when a first information meeting was organized to determine the interest of setting up a French-language radio station in Fredericton. Finally, on August 22, 1997, CJPN broadcast for the first time on the FM 90.5 frequency with a transmitter of about 2,000 watts.

Since 2015, Radio Fredericton inc. CJPN works in partnership with Francophone community radio stations in Saint-Jean, CHQC-FM and Miramichi French-language community radio station CKMA-FM. This is the first resource sharing project implemented in three independent French-language community radio stations in Canada. These three radio stations share the general management, the production department, their technician, the accounting department and some of their broadcasts.

On December 19, 2022, CJPN rebranded to C90 and is now owned by C médias. On the same day, CHQC in Saint John, CKRH in Halifax, and CKMA in Miramichi also adopted the "C" branding from C médias.

I wonder why Hannu went on his expidition. Did he want to have fame, riches, or was he just adventurous?- JORDAN ROBERTS 10 yrs SVE STUDY GROUP WITH KENZIE KNIGHT AND MCKENZIE SURBART

ANSWERS FOR JORDAN AND QUESTIONS I think that Hannu went on his expidition because he wanted riches and fame for his country. Why did Hannu decide to go on a expidition to Ethiopia and Somalia? KENZIE KNIGHT 10 yrs SVE STUDY GROUP WITH MCKENZIE SUBART AND JORDAN ROBERTS

ANSWERS FOR KENZIE KNIGHT Thank you for those answers. Now I can set myself straight. Now for your questions. I believe that Hannu decided to go to Ethopia and Somalia because they had the best metal, wood, and myrrh. I wonder if Ethopia and Somalia is also known as punt, because Punt never showed up on the maps. Anyone except Kenzie have answers? JORDAN ROBERTS SVE (and you know the rest) (go to edit this page to give me answers or ask questions

It's very easy why he went on this expedition. His king ordered him to get stones from Wadi Hammamat for statues, what he brought with him. He sent this vessel to Punt to get myrrh from the people there. He was not the first one who did so, but the first of the Middle Kingdom. Where Punt is to be located, is disputed. Either in Sudan or in Somalia or even farther south. Andreas J.G. Frank --62.146.145.126 00:41, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

Betty Bobbitt

Betty Ann Bobbitt (February 7, 1939 – November 30, 2020) was an American actress, director, singer, and playwright based in Australia, with a career that spanned over 60 years, encompassing theatre, television, and film. Bobbitt was best known for her small screen role in TV series Prisoner (known in the UK and North America as Prisoner: Cell Block H and Caged Woman in Canada) as lesbian mother figure Judy Bryant from 1980 to 1985, through 430 episodes. Bobbitt was the second major star actress to portray a lesbian character in the series after Carol Burns, who played original character Franky Doyle. In the series the character of Judy was convicted of smuggling drugs so she could be with her lesbian lover Sharon Gilmore in the fictional Wentworth Detention Centre, whilst inside and out of prison she was raped, survived a murder attempt, broke out on two occasions and discovered she had a long lost daughter. The actress who portrays Judy Bryant's lover in the series Margot Knight, as inmate Sharon Gilmore, returned to the series for a second stint as Prison Officer Terri Malone, coincidently also a lesbian character, this time to regular character Joan Ferguson (Maggie Kirkpatrick), making Knight the only actress to portray an LGBTQI character as both a prisoner and warden. On film she had cameo roles appearing opposite Paul Hogan, in several of the Crocodile Dundee series including Crocodile Dundee II (1988), Crocodile Dundee in Los Angeles (2001), and the direct-to-video The Very Excellent Mr. Dundee (2020).

Early life
Bobbitt was born in Manhattan, New York, to nurse Elizabeth Bobbitt née Sprout and Hubert Bobbitt, a steel mill worker and grew up in Norristown, a suburb of Philadelphia. She attended a Catholic school and Norristown High School.

Career
Bobbitt moved to Los Angeles, aged 18, to appear in a theatre production of Auntie Mame, she was approached by an Australian television producer who asked her if she "wanted to come to Australia and be funny". She was contracted for six months and appeared as a regular on a Melbourne television variety show, Daly at Night, as "a female Victor Borge, singing off-key and just plain acting like a dumb brunette". She was known in Australia in the early 1960s as "Betty Bobbitt the dizzy brunette from Big Bear", referencing a fictitious place ostensibly in Pennsylvania.

She subsequently married an Australian artist, Robin Hill, and had a son, Christopher, in England. Returning to Melbourne, Australia, she appeared in many theatre productions with the Melbourne Theatre Company. She also teamed up with future Prisoner stars Anne Phelan and Colette Mann in a 1970s stage show called The Glitter Girls who performed 1940s songs. Notable theatre included in Martin Cripps Cruel and Tender and Jean Cocteau of 'The Human Voice

Bobbitt was a fixture on Australian television from the mid-1960s with guest roles in serials including Matlock Police, Homicide, Cop Shop, A Country Practice, The Flying Doctors, All Saints, Marshall Law, and  Blue Heelers.

She became best known for her role in Prisoner for her portrayal of lesbian character Judy Bryant, a series regular. She first appeared in the show in February 1980. After it started to gain a cult status in the US, billed as Prisoner: Cell Block H, an American actress was suggested by producers as a nod to local audiences. Her character was intended only for a short-term 13 episode appearance, but she became immensely popular, and was retained in the series. Bobbitt continued in the role until May 1985, making her the show's second-longest serving actor, at 429 episodes, second only to Elspeth Ballantyne as officer Meg Jackson/Morris, an original who appeared at the series' inception. After Prisoner, she continued in theatre roles and made guest appearance in television and film

During her time in Prisoner Bobbitt performed with fellow Prisoner cast members Jane Clifton and Colette Mann in a three-woman troupe named "The Mini Busettes" in the 1980s. They performed around Australia in RSL and similar clubs. Bobbitt appeared in a guest role in TV series Neighbours in 2019, to celebrate the 40th Anniversary of Prisoner, she featured alongside fellow stars Jane Clifton, Jentah Sobott and Jenny Lovell, who arrive in Erinsborough to attend Sheila's Bookclub, in doing so she was reunited with other Prisoner co-stars who now star in the series, Colette Mann, who played regular Sheila Canning and Jackie Woodburne who has long played Susan Kennedy.

She had cameo roles in the Crocodile Dundee franchise starring Paul Hogan including Crocodile Dundee II and Crocodile Dundee in Los Angeles (a.k.a.Crocodile Dundee III) and The Very Excellent Mr. Dundee.

In 2004, Bobbitt made a brief uncredited appearance in the American television remake of the Stephen King classic, Salem's Lot, and in 2010 in a thriller, Torn.

Publication
In 2011, Bobbitt self-published her book From the Outside (ISBN 9780646561332), which documents her life and career playing the role of Judy Bryant on Prisoner.

Death
Bobbitt died on 30 November 2020, aged 81, following a stroke.

Keyshia Cole

Keyshia Myeshia Cole (née Johnson; born October 15, 1981) is an American singer, songwriter, television personality and actress. Born and raised in Oakland, California, she began her career as a backing vocalist for MC Hammer before signing with A&M Records to release her debut studio album, The Way It Is (2005). It received platinum certification by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), spawned the Billboard Hot 100-top 20 single "Love," and earned two nominations at the 2006 Soul Train Music Awards. Established by the album's success, Cole filmed a reality television series for BET documenting her career, family and personal life titled Keyshia Cole: The Way It Is; the show ran for three seasons, and became one of the most-watched programs in the network's history.

Cole's second album, Just Like You (2007) was supported by the Billboard Hot 100-top ten single "Let It Go" (featuring Missy Elliott and Lil' Kim), as well as the top 40 singles "I Remember" and "Heaven Sent". The album received four Grammy Award nominations, peaked at number two on the Billboard 200, and received platinum certification by the RIAA. Her third album, A Different Me (2008), was met with continued success, also peaking at number two on the Billboard 200 and receiving platinum certification. Cole's fourth and fifth albums, Calling All Hearts (2010) and Woman to Woman (2012) both peaked within the top ten of the chart and saw continued praise; the latter was led by the single "Enough of No Love" (featuring Lil Wayne), the only song of the albums to enter the Billboard Hot 100. Her sixth and seventh albums, Point of No Return (2014) and 11:11 Reset (2017) were released by Interscope and Epic Records, respectively, and both met with critical and commercial declines.

Dubbed by critics as the "Princess of Hip-Hop Soul", Cole is best known for her soulful voice.

At the age of 16, she became a participant at the East Oakland Youth Development Center (EOYDC), a local youth organization. Cole attended Fremont High School in Oakland, before later attending and graduating from Tracy High School in Tracy, California. Cole moved to Los Angeles at the age of 18 to pursue a music career. During this time, Cole collaborated with artists from her native Bay Area, among them D'Wayne Wiggins of Tony Toni Tone and Messy Marv. In 2002, she was introduced to A&M Records A&R Ron Fair, whom signed her to the label and began mentoring her after listening to an unfinished version of one of her songs.

2004–2006: The Way It Is
In March 2004, Cole's debut single, "Never", a collaboration with American rapper Eve, was released as the second single from the soundtrack to Kevin Rodney Sullivan's comedy film Barbershop 2: Back in Business (2004). In anticipation of her then-upcoming album, Cole and DJ Green Lantern released a mixtape, Team Invasion Presents Keyshia Cole, in February 2005 which features remixes of hip hop instrumentals and snippets. Cole released her debut album, The Way It Is, on June 21, 2005, through A&M Records; it debuted at number six on the Billboard 200 and sold 89,000 copies in its first week.

To further promote the album, Cole served as a supporting act on Kanye West's Touch the Sky Tour, which took place from October to December 2005.

In June 2006, Cole was featured on "(When You Gonna) Give It Up to Me" by Sean Paul from the soundtrack of the romantic dance film Step Up (2006). It reached number three on the Billboard Hot 100 and became a top 20 hit in several other countries, including Canada, Switzerland and Finland. On July 9, 2006, it was reported that Cole had signed with BET for a reality series, Keyshia Cole: The Way It Is. Chronicling her personal life, family dynamics and professional career, the series premiered three days following its announcement.

2007–2009: Just like You and A Different Me

In March 2007, Cole was featured on Diddy's single "Last Night", taken from his fourth album Press Play (2006). The song became an international success, reaching the top ten in Finland, Ireland and the United States. On September 25, 2007, Cole released her second album Just like You, to generally favorable reviews from music critics. For the album, she worked with various producers, including Scott Storch, Rodney Jerkins, Bryan-Michael Cox, Cainon Lamb and The Runners, among others. A commercial success, the album debuted at number two on the US Billboard 200 and number one on the US Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums charts, selling 281,000 copies in its first week and was certified platinum in the United States for sales of one million copies. The lead single, "Let It Go" (featuring Missy Elliott and Lil' Kim), marked Cole's first top-ten hit on the US Billboard Hot 100 as a lead artist moreover her first number-one hit on Billboard's Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs; eventually receiving a platinum certification in the United States. The follow-up "Shoulda Let You Go" (featuring Amina Harris), reached the top-ten of the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart, peaking at number six. The third and fourth singles, "I Remember" and "Heaven Sent", both reached number-one on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart, spending seven and nine consecutive weeks at the summit, respectively. Cole received a variety of accolades for the album, including four Grammy Award nominations and three BET Award nominations.

Aside from her music success, Cole made her acting debut with a cameo role in the Ian Iqbal Rashid-directed film How She Move, released in January 2008 and grossed $8.6 million worldwide. Throughout early to mid-2008, Cole made several guest appearances on songs including "I Got a Thang for You" (with rapper Trina), "Boyfriend/Girlfriend" (with hip hop quartet C-Side), and "Game's Pain" (with rapper The Game), respectively. Additionally, Cole was scheduled to make a cameo on Missy Elliott's album, Block Party, which was originally intended to be released that year. In August 2008, Cole and a host of other female singers recorded the charity single "Just Stand Up!", the theme song to the anti-cancer campaign Stand Up to Cancer. The third season of Keyshia Cole: The Way It Is premiered via BET on November 11, 2008, and marked the highest-rated season premiere for the network, with a total of 1.94 million viewers.

Cole's third album A Different Me was released on December 16, 2008. The album debuted at number two on the US Billboard 200 chart, with 322,000 copies sold in its first-week of sales, and received a platinum certification by the RIAA for selling over a million copies. The singles, "Playa Cardz Right" (featuring Tupac Shakur), "You Complete Me" and "Trust" (with Monica), all reached the lower-half of the Billboard Hot 100 and the top-ten of the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart. To promote the album, she served as a supporting act for Lil Wayne's I Am Music Tour, which ran from December 14, 2008, to April 10, 2009. Shortly after the tour ended, Cole embarked on her first headlining tour, A Different Me Tour, which began on May 13 and concluded on June 21, 2009. Throughout this time, Cole was featured as the cover artist on several magazines such as the January issues of Jet and WordUp!, the March 2009 issue of Vibe, and the summer 2009 final double-cover issue of King.

2010–2013: Calling All Hearts and Woman to Woman
On June 27, 2010, three months after the birth of her son, Cole returned to the public eye, filling in for Hayley Williams to perform the chorus to B.o.B's "Airplanes (Part II)" featuring Eminem during the 2010 BET Awards. On October 16, 2010, Cole performed at the fifth annual Black Girls Rock! ceremony, which was held at the Paradise Theater in The Bronx, New York. Cole released her fourth studio album, Calling All Hearts, on December 21, 2010, featuring guest appearances from Nicki Minaj, Tank, Faith Evans, Timbaland, and her adoptive mother Yvonne Cole. The album was preceded by the lead single "I Ain't Thru" (featuring Nicki Minaj) and a promotional single "Long Way Down", which were both complemented with music videos. Following the album's release, Cole announced via Twitter that she had fired her manager Manny Halley and parted ways with his Imani Entertainment label in January 2011. "Take Me Away" was released to urban contemporary radio as the album's second single in February 2011 and peaked at number 27 on Billboard's Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs; spending a total of 20 weeks on the chart. Cole supplementally promoted Calling All Hearts by serving as an opening act for the North American leg of R. Kelly's Love Letter Tour through June 16 to July 3, 2011. In September 2011, Cole began working on her fifth album, which was originally expected to be released five months later.

Her fifth album, Woman to Woman, arrived on November 19, 2012, becoming her first project to be released without A&R executive Ron Fair and manager Manny Halley, who was with her at the beginning of her career. It debuted at number 10 on the Billboard 200 selling 96,000 copies in its first week in the United States, becoming Cole's fifth consecutive top 10 album. In its second week, the album rose to number three, where it sold 37,100 copies. In its third week, the album fell two spots to number five, selling 28,600 copies. The album has sold over 246,300 copies as of January 2013.

The lead single from Woman to Woman , "Enough of No Love", featuring Lil Wayne was sent to radio and released for digital download on July 3, 2012. The song was written by Redd Stylez and Cole, and was produced by Harmony with a mid-tempo R&B production. It peaked at number seven on the Billboard R&B/Hip-Hop Songs Chart. On August 9, the song debuted at number 94 on the Billboard Hot 100 where it ultimately peaked at number 84.

The second single, "Trust and Believe" was released for digital download on October 22, 2012 and again on November 13, 2012. On October 24, it was ranked the number one added song to Urban radio of the week. "I Choose You" was released as the third single during August 2013. Cole also embarked on her third headlining concert tour, in support of her fifth studio album, Woman to Woman, visiting North America and Europe. The tour held 27 total dates. Singer Chrisette Michele was the supporting act for the North American leg.

In September 2013, after Geffen folded, Cole's Geffen deal was, once again, drafted, this time to its parent label, Interscope Records. She later returned to the studio and began recording her sixth studio album. On October 2, 2013, it was confirmed that Cole and her former manager Manny Halley had resolved their differences and Halley was currently managing Cole again.

2014–2017: Point of No Return and 11:11 Reset
In March 2014, Cole revealed the title of her sixth studio album to be Point of No Return. The lead single from the album, "Next Time (Won't Give My Heart Away)" was released as a digital download, on March 31, 2014, and officially impacted US Rhythmic radio on April 1. The song "Rick James", featuring rapper Juicy J, was released alongside "Next Time (Won't Give My Heart Away)" as a digital download in March 2014, while "She" followed as the third single from the album on July 8, 2014. Point of No Return was released on October 7, 2014, with open sales of 25,000 copies and has sold over 100,000 copies.

In February 2015, Cole revealed to Rap-Up TV that following the release of Point of No Return, which sold poorly, she was contractually free from Interscope and was intending on moving forward as an independent recording artist. Cole also confirmed work on her seventh studio album, revealing that she was halfway done with ten tracks so far. She stated: "I don't know which direction I wanna go in. I don't know if I want it to be more fun, I don't know if I want it to be more heartfelt or if I want it upbeat, medium to slow. I'm just recording and recording and recording and recording and recording and recording and recording." In December 2016, it was announced that Cole signed a new record deal with Sony's Epic Records.

On January 27, 2017, Cole released the lead single "You" (featuring Remy Ma and French Montana) from her seventh studio album. In an interview with Rap-Up magazine, she announced the name of the album, 11:11 Reset, stating "For the past year, I've been seeing 1111 constantly and to my understanding, you're aligned spiritually with your destiny and everything that is meant to be in your life is happening at the right time. The timing is right. Everything is right. Reset is definitely cohesive with that." On August 25, 2017, she released the second single "Incapable". The album was released on October 20, 2017. It sold 15,000 copies within the first week, which marked the singer's lowest first week ever. Since then, the album has sold around 100,000 copies.

2018–present: Upcoming eighth studio album and Keyshia Cole: This is My Story
In 2019, Cole was featured on "All Me" by Kehlani. That same year she started hosting her own talk show, One on One with Keyshia Cole, airing on Fox Soul. In June 2020, it was reported that Keyshia Cole had signed a management deal with talent management company Primary Wave which was shortly after the reveal that she had reunited with longtime friend and record producer who she worked with for her first four albums, Ron Fair. On July 22, speculations came out about a possible Verzuz battle between Cole and Ashanti after Cole publicly challenged her during the live streamed match between rappers DMX and Snoop Dogg. On December 2, Cole announced via her Instagram Live that she would soon be competing in a match while singing a few of her previous records. Two days later, it was confirmed that the latest Verzuz battle would be between Cole and Ashanti. The in-person competition was expected to take place on December 12, 2020, though it was postponed after Ashanti tested positive for COVID-19 ahead of the event. Following the battle, Cole released the non-album single "I Don't Wanna Be in Love", under her independent record label, Hearts and Stars, created with the support of BMG.

On June 23, 2023, Cole released her first single since "I Don't Wanna Be in Love", titled "Forever is a Thing", in support of her Lifetime-original biographical television film, Keyshia Cole: This Is My Story, which premiered on June 24. The song and film were inspired by the death of Cole's mother, along with other major events in her life and career. The movie received three million viewers throughout its debut weekend and was the number one telecast on cable on its premiere night. In late 2023, Cole sang the original song "No Love Lust" for soundtrack The Color Purple (Music from and Inspired By) to the 2023 film remake. In December 2023, Cole appeared on the song "Love Me Enough" alongside Nicki Minaj and Monica on the "Gag City" deluxe version of Minaj's album Pink Friday 2.

Reality television
In July 2006, Cole premiered her six episode docu-series, titled Keyshia Cole: The Way It Is, on BET. With record breaking views, the show viewed Cole's life as an artist, daughter, and sister, performing, visiting her home town, and starting production on her next album.

In mid-July 2011, Cole tweeted that she, her then-husband Daniel, and James DeBose would be launching a new reality TV show, titled Keyshia & Daniel: Family First. Shooting of the show began during the summer of 2011. During the eight episode docu-series, Cole would craft her follow-up to Calling All Hearts. "I just kind of lay out all my emotions then we start from there" says Cole. "I usually work with big name producers and stuff like once all from my heart and soul is out that I need to get out." Aside from a look into the making of her new album, titled Woman to Woman, Cole and her husband, Daniel, re-wed during taping. The first episode of the show aired on BET on October 9, 2012, with 2.9 million viewers. In November 2014, BET confirmed that Cole was back with her third reality TV show Keyshia Cole: All In; which was originally slated to premiere during Fall 2014, but aired on February 24, 2015. In 2019, BET announced that Cole would return with a fourth reality show Keyshia Cole: My New Life, which premiered in November 2019.

In 2023, Cole competed in season ten of The Masked Singer as "Candelabra". She was eliminated during the Group C finals in "Soundtrack of My Life" alongside John Oates as "Anteater".

Shoe line with Steve Madden
In September 2013, Cole announced that she was teaming up with fashion designer Steve Madden to create her own shoe collection, specifically high heels, wedges, and boots. "I am super excited to collaborate with Steve Madden," stated Cole. "It's something I've wanted to do for a long time. I love his style and I think we came up with an amazing vibrant collection. We have something for every fashion diva!"

Personal life
In May 2009, Cole began dating former NBA player Daniel Gibson. The couple became engaged on January 1, 2010. They welcomed their first child, a son, on March 2, 2010. Following their wedding on May 21, 2011, the pair renewed their vows in Hawaii in September 2011. "My husband wanted me to have my dream wedding so he flew all of our family members here. He's giving me something I will never forget! Amazing," Cole said. The entire wedding weekend was filmed and aired on their BET reality TV series Keyshia and Daniel: Family First, in October 2012. On March 21, 2014, Cole announced during an interview that she and Gibson had broken up, but had not yet filed for divorce. In May 2016, she met her biological father, Virgil Hunter, after a paternity test confirmed their connection. In April 2017, Cole announced that she and Gibson were divorcing. On May 3, 2019, Cole announced that she was expecting her second child, a son, with her then-boyfriend Niko Khale. She welcomed her second son on August 1, 2019. On September 3, 2020, Cole announced on Instagram that she and Gibson were officially divorced. In October 2020, Cole and Khale ended their relationship. Cole's mother, Frankie Lons died on July 18, 2021. Her cause of death was revealed to have been a drug overdose.

Artistry
Cole possesses the vocal range of a soprano. Her voice has been described as having a "flexible range of R&B, the muscular punch of soul and the hard character of hip hop" and contains a "smoky flavor, and a husky texture." Cole's musical themes and lyrics touch upon the topics of empowerment, reflection, heartache and love. Her fifth studio album "Woman to Woman" (2012) was described by Ben Ratliff of The New York Times as a R&B almanac of shaky romance, with nearly every song a first-person narrative with gnarled details, endlessly recombining data about suspicion, jealousy, pride, punishment, self-respect, the led-up, the aftermath." The album's lyrics revolved around "emotionally painful romantic issues." Betty Wright listed Cole as one of the artists who she believed were "still holding the torch" for R&B music. Cole grew up listening to her mentor Tupac Shakur. She cites Mary J. Blige as one of her greatest musical inspirations, along with Faith Evans, Toni Braxton, Monica, Chanté Moore and Brandy.

Controversies
A feud between Cole and Lil' Mo began in August 2005 via the radio series Star and Buc Wild Morning Show. Mo was reported to have dismissed the vocal talent of a new crop of R&B performers, saying that they relied on dancing. Cole took offense and went to Dream Hotel in New York City, where she encountered Lil' Mo's manager Phil Thornton and a stylist, allegedly stating "You all are traitors. [Lil' Mo] is the enemy.". Lil' Mo shrugged off the incident, saying she was told that Cole was intoxicated at the time, which Cole denied.

On March 16, 2012, Cole came at Gucci Mane for the controversial song "Truth", on which Gucci rapped, "I did a song with Keyshia Cole and I know you still miss her. But Puff was f---ing her while you was falling in love with her." implying that, during the time of her rumored relationship with Young Jeezy, Cole was cheating on Jeezy with rap mogul and her "Last Night" collaborator Diddy. Cole stated on the radio, "Putting all ya trust in some of these 'Hood Rappers'... How you gonna be a G, and you spreading lies, to sell mix tapes! Where ya talent at. Dude ain't have to lie though! Could've kept me out of it."

In March 2013, Cole was criticized by urban media outlets for her Twitter critique of Beyoncé's "Bow Down/I Been On". This led to Lil' Mo and Cole exchanging hostile tweets over the next few days. Despite the exchanges, in May 2013, Mo said there was no beef between her and Cole, which led to the two exchanging hostile messages again via Instagram and Twitter.

Greek frigate Elli

Greek frigate Elli (F450) is the lead ship of the Greek Elli-class frigate of frigates and the third Hellenic Navy ship by that name. The class is based on the Royal Netherlands Navy's Kortenaer-class frigate and was built in a Dutch shipyard; however, unlike later members of its class in the Hellenic Navy, it was not originally in Dutch service, but was sold directly to Greece.

The Elli was built at the Koninklijke Maatschappij de Schelde in Vlissingen, Holland, along with the frigate Limnos as part of a commission for the two ships from the Greek government. Her maiden voyage was on 10 October 1981 under her first captain, Grigoris Demestihas. She arrived in Greece on 15 November that year.

The Elli took part in the Persian Gulf War from 1990–91, enforcing the UN resolution on Iraq in the neighborhood of the Red Sea.

Asia Pacific Airlines (Guam)

Asia Pacific Airlines is a cargo airline headquartered in Tamuning, Guam, United States. It operates cargo charter services from Guam and Honolulu. Its main base is Antonio B. Won Pat International Airport.

History
The airline was established on June 5, 1998, and started operations with the Boeing 727-200 on June 3, 1999. It was formed as Aero Micronesia, Inc. and is an affiliate company of the Tan Holdings Corporation. The primary aspect of the airline's operation was transport for the US Postal Service, and other cargo, throughout Micronesia, as well as the importation of fresh high grade tuna for transshipment to worldwide fish markets.

As of January 2015 the airline has begun the process of bringing the Boeing 757-200 into service as part of fleet modernization and expansion.

In February 2023, the US Federal Aviation Administration suspended the operating authority of the airline, after they "failed to produce records showing that the two individuals who provide proficiency checks for company pilots were properly trained and qualified for the past two years," making any approvals of the airline's pilots invalid. The grounding led to supply chain disruptions across Micronesia, particularly in the Marshall Islands, where the airline was the sole air cargo carrier. Mail disruptions and shortages of medical supplies were reported, leading to state of emergency being declared by President David Kabua. The airline resumed operations on May 5, 2023.

Destinations
Asia Pacific Airlines flies to the following destinations:

Current fleet
The Asia Pacific Airlines fleet consists of the following aircraft (as of December 2021):

Vamos

Vamos (Greek: Βάμος) is a small town and former municipality in the Chania regional unit, Crete, Greece. Since the 2011 local government reform "Kallikratis" it is a municipal unit, part of the municipality of Apokoronas, serving as its historical capital. It is situated on a small hill at an altitude of 190 m above sea level, about 25 km from Chania. In Vamos, one can find several restaurants, snack bars and shops in the village, as well as many public services, such as a fully equipped health center, schools, police station and the regional court for the regions of Apokoronas and Sfakia.

The village is said to have been founded by Arab invaders during the 8th century, which sought refuge in Crete after being expelled from Andalusia. The first official record of the name (Vamo/Vamu) is found on a map of 1577 made by Francesco Barozzi, and according to the Venetian census of 1583 it had 271 inhabitants. The village followed the fate of the rest of Western Crete when the Ottomans invaded the broader area of Apokoronas in 1646 and remained relatively small until the mid-19th century.

According to the Egyptian census of 1834, it is mentioned as Vamos, being inhabited by 30 Christian and 15 Muslim families. Due to its strategic position over the main road from Chania to Rethimno and Heraklion, the village became the seat of a municipality in 1881, and in 1866 Vamos was chosen by Savva Paşa as the capital of the Liva (District) of Sfakia. Within the next years, the village went through a period of increased development, which saw the construction of new public buildings with neoclassical elements, such as the Governorate (Konak/Seray), the Ottoman barracks, water tanks and schools, among which the famous Parthenagogio (Girls' School), which today functions as a municipal hostel. Most of the judicial, political, and military authorities of the broader area were seated in the village. Therefore it is often found in public documents of the era as Saraylıköy, which means "the village with the palace."

For exactly the same reason, the village repeatedly became the target of Christian revolutionaries during the numerous Cretan revolts of the 19th century. Many of its buildings suffered great damage during the revolt of 1878, which were restored by Mahmut Paşa in 1892. One of the most renown events, however, is the siege and fall of Vamos to the revolutionaries under Leonidas Malekakis (Papamalekos) during the revolt of 1895-6, an event that forced the Greek government to revise its policy on the Cretan Question and the European Powers to intervene decisively for its settlement. The result was a preliminary treaty between the revolutionaries and the Ottoman authorities in 1896, which was soon to be followed by the last revolt of 1897 and the withdrawal of the Ottoman army, allowing the creation of the Cretan State, a de facto independent state which remained typically under Ottoman suzerainty until the Balkan Wars of 1912-3, when it eventually united with Greece.

Right below the main square at the top of the hill, one can find the old quarter of Vamos. A group of locals decided to set up here Vamos SA, an enterprise devoted to preserving local heritage and customs, by encouraging a sustainable form of tourism. In this context, several old houses have been refurbished in order to provide accommodation for visitors, and within the next few years, a few tavernas showed up, an art gallery, some picturesque cafés, and a general store selling local products.

Vamos municipal unit
The municipal unit Vamos extends over 67.035 km2, and consists of 9 communities. The community Vamos extends over 10.479 km2 and includes the nearby village of Douliana. The municipal unit Vamos consists of the following communities (constituent villages in brackets):
 * Vamos (Vamos, Douliana)
 * Gavalochori (Gavalochori, Aspro)
 * Kaina (Kaina, Platanos)
 * Kalamitsi Alexandrou
 * Kefalas (Kefalas, Drapanos, Palailoni)
 * Kokkino Chorio
 * Xirosterni (Xirosterni, Litsarda)
 * Plaka (Plaka, Almyrida, Kampia)
 * Sellia (Sellia, Likotinarea, Souri)

Approximately 3,100 residents inhabit the municipal unit of Vamos.

The historical "Lambrakeion" High School of Vamos
The High School of Vamos was first established in 1901 by the authorities of the Cretan State, being one of the twenty Greek schools established during this era. Although it started with only three classes, it was soon obtained one more in 1911–1912, a fifth one in 1912–1913 and sixth the next year, thus becoming a complete high school. The existent building is the second building of the high school, and it was completed in 1936, with Sifakis being its director. It is located right above the main settlement of Vamos, at exactly the same place where the Ottoman Directorate (Konak) used to be. During World War II (1941–45) the building became a Nazi barracks and headquarters for the province of Apokoronas. In 1949, two more classes were built upon the donation of Dimitrios Lambrakis (ancestor of the Media-Tycoon Christos Lambrakis), and therefore his name was given to the high school, being known as "Lambrakio Gymnasio Vamou."

Adelphi Theatre (New York City)

The Adelphi Theatre (1934–1940 and 1944–1958), originally named the Craig Theatre, opened on December 24, 1928. The Adelphi was located at 152 West 54th Street in Manhattan, with 1,434 seats. The theater was taken over by the Federal Theater Project in 1934 and renamed the Adelphi. The theater was renamed the Radiant Center by The Royal Fraternity of Master Metaphysicians in 1940. It was then the Yiddish Arts Theater (1943), and renamed the Adelphi Theater on April 20, 1944, when it was acquired by The Shubert Organization.

It became a DuMont Television Network studio, known as the Adelphi Tele-Theatre in the 1950s. The "Classic 39" episodes of The Honeymooners were filmed in this facility by DuMont using their Electronicam system for broadcast on CBS later during the 1955–56 television season. The theater returned to legitimate use in 1957, was renamed the 54th Street Theater in 1958, and finally the George Abbott Theater in 1965. The building was demolished in 1970 for the New York Hilton Midtown hotel after hosting several expensive flops.

Some interiors were decorated with murals painted by Joseph Mortimer Lichtenauer. The artistic cycle was dismembered after its demolition.

Talk:Tube Bar prank calls

Prior Art section
The article seems to suggest that the coincidence of Mike Hunt proves this is the source for the Porky's gag. It may be, but that is no evidence; in some men's dorms when there were such things, it was routine when a lady caller asked for someone so named, to shout down the hall, for her benefit, the obscene version of the real name. And yeah, people do really get given those names. I also remember meeting a Charles ("Chuck"?) Farley, tho he didn't have the middle initial "U", AFAIK.

Anyway, my point is that there should be a lk to a joke names article (to acknowledge the prior art) which in turn should link to Monty Python and especially to Life of Brian. --Jerzy•t 03:22, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

Tube Bar Movie
Uhhhhhhhhhhhhh......... Why no mention of the film "Red", which uses these prank calls? Anyone remember the "Bite the curb" scene? This was popular at Virginia Tech in 1992. 68.167.161.182 (talk) 19:59, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

Tube Bar Demolition
It might be worth noting that the Tube Bar is no longer standing. In a visit to Journal Square in May 2009 there was only construction rubble in and fencing around the lot where the Tube Bar and other buildings used to stand. Signs posted around the empty lot imply that a new "One Journal Square" high rise tower will be built on the site. See also the 1 Journal Square article. According to "Brooklynfoo" the buildings were demolished starting around March 20, 2009. The demolition was finished by April 8, 2009 according to The Jersey Journal. 69.119.27.73 (talk) 01:36, 12 May 2009 (UTC)

Improved non-opionated introduction needed
"The Tube Bar prank calls are arguably the most famous series of prank calls ever recorded."

Obviously, this is based on opinion and an introduction referring to reliable and valid sources needs to be used. —Preceding unsigned comment added by KungFuMil (talk • contribs) 00:35, 28 May 2009 (UTC)

 * Concur with this, and have revised it to "legendary" which is cited. Ravensfire ( talk ) 18:10, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

Why no mention of examples in modern pop culture?
The Simpsons character Bart used to make these phone calls all the time to Moe, resulting in Moe becoming very angry and threatening Bart with all sorts of terrible things. Why no mention of this in the article? It seems as though this might be relevant as it could help bridge the gap between generations. Bowenj10 (talk) 19:04, 15 January 2010 (UTC)
 * The final paragraph of the "History" section already mentions this. --McGeddon (talk) 19:08, 15 January 2010 (UTC)

Trivia, lack of sources
I have removed some of the unverified information, including the long list of names called for--even if that were verified, it falls short of WP:TRIVIA. It's time that this article gets cleaned up and meets Wikipedia guidelines. Drmies (talk) 04:49, 21 August 2010 (UTC)

Copyright
Why doesn't the copyright belong to the bar owner who was tormented by the two pricks? Varlaam (talk) 16:35, 26 May 2012 (UTC).

 * That is probably a legal question IF it ever went to court. Jim Davidson and John Elmo copyrighted the calls with no mention of any of their callers. It is questionable as to how "legal" their copyright is...chances are we'll never find out. Tyros1972 (talk) 18:10, 26 May 2012 (UTC)

 * FYI for ref: If you or anyone wants to mention this in the article, see the US Copyright Office and look up the 4 copyrights I have found. SR0000183677, SR0000242448, SR0000399036, SRu001012224. Tyros1972 (talk) 18:28, 26 May 2012 (UTC)

 * Late to posting my thoughts on copyright surrounding this historic prank call tape. This is a fair question, but the copyright on the calls themselves would fall on the pranksters themselves. If the bar owner wanted to claim that the authors made profits off of the harassment of other, the bar owner would have a claim. Sadly, Red (the bar owner) died in 1983 and theses published recordings appeared at least 5 years after his death. As of now, John Elmo and Jim Davidson claim to be the original pranksters and have claimed copyright and I have little reason to personally doubt they are indeed the pranksters. And FWIW, the original pranks were simply passed around on dubbed cassette tapes back in the day with nobody claiming ownership or profit.

 * So yes, this is all murky territory copyright-wise. And if you feel bad for the bar owner, that would be fair. But in some other world where Red Deutsch was still alive, the most he could do is claim he was an unwilling participant in these recordings and make claims over the sale of CDs with his voice on them. Not much else. If you ask me in the year 2015, 100% nobody should be claiming copyright on this tape at this point and it should just be stored and distributed via someplace like the Internet Archive. I mean, who buys CDs anymore so that ship has passed. And people now share MP3s the exact same way people dubbed cassette tapes back in the day. Life’s too short. Just let the pranks be free. But hey, only my two cents as a fan and only my opinion. --SpyMagician (talk) 05:23, 1 June 2015 (UTC)

Legitimacy of the supposed “Official TUBE BAR Prank Calls” website
TL;DR: Note is being place here to simply state the obvious: Wikipedia is not self-promotional tool and the misuse of Wikipedia for such promotional purposes puts the deletion of valid content at risk. And this article in itself has been put at risk due to misuse/abuse of the page for self-promotional/commercial purposes. It needs to stop and editors need to be aware of the background here.

Here are more details: I’m posting this since I am a fan of the original Tube Bar tapes—predating any unofficial or even official release—and wanted to add my perspective for anyone else daring to tread into the odd politics of this article and the recordings themselves. Specifically the issue of the questionable legitimacy of the “Official TUBE BAR Prank Calls” website.

It’s my understanding that the website purporting to be the “official” Tube Bar website has no true affiliation to John Elmo and Jim Davidson (aka: the pranksters known as the “Bum Bar Bastards”) but is rather owned, run and managed by Edward Heldman III. Mr. Heldman is a person who I believe is a non-affiliated 3rd party who has attempted for years to distribute Tube Bar CDs and recordings of his own—under the “labels” T.A. Productions and TubeBarPrankCalls.com—using the concept of “derivative art” to skirt the true ownership of the material by John Elmo and Jim Davidson and—frankly—get away with selling his own versions of the recordings on CD and digital download. A quick glance at the content “TubeBarPrankCalls.com” shows the site to be nothing more than a commercial site which sells digital downloads and CDs connected to T.A. Productions and TubeBarPrankCalls.com. Heck, the site’s about page is clearly just a swipe of an earlier version of the Wikipedia page without any changes whatsoever; you would think the official pranksters would at least have their own/unique promotional copy.

Which is all to say, I myself am still confused as to who Edward Heldman III really is in his relationship with John Elmo and Jim Davidson, but this core Tube Bar article should be kept as Wiki Non-POV neutral as possible. And to be honest this whole article was at risk to be deleted at multiple points due to the fact it was mainly being used—abused?—by some to simply promote their “for sale” products. This article should be an authoritative source on the history and legacy of this prank tape and not a promotional page linking to commercial sites.

Any future editors coming here should be aware of the edits made by the user Tyros1972 (who I believe is Edward Heldman III) and the potential COI (conflict of interest) his edits might carry. Hopefully the nonsense he has engaged in here on Wikipedia—such as creating non-notable promotional articles/pages for his work—and the resulting deletion of those articles/pages have sent the message home.

Thank you. --SpyMagician (talk) 15:41, 3 June 2015 (UTC)

 * If there's some question over whether the site is "official" - if the only evidence to suggest it's the official site is the site's own word - then it seems fair to cut the link under WP:LINKSTOAVOID ("web pages that primarily exist to sell products or services"), since all it's doing is selling some MP3s. Perhaps User:Ruffles2016 could shed some light on confirming that the site is an official one, instead of blanking this thread. --McGeddon (talk) 08:45, 5 April 2016 (UTC)
