Talk:Toblerone

Owner/Manufacturer
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wrigley_Company

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kraft_Foods#Brands

Between those three pages, who actually owns and makes Toblerone and what should it say on the page? I'll post this on Krafts page as well because its probably more travelled.

Swiss Chalet
Swiss Chalet content was added by User:Auric The Rad, a Canadian. Changed "North America" to "Canada". Most people in the United States have never heard of Swiss Chalet, but many are familiar with Toblerone. According to their website, they only have three restaurants in the states, all in New York. --Viriditas | Talk 02:18, 25 July 2005 (UTC)

Patent, Trademark and Einstein
The pdf patent offered doesn't have Einstein's name on it. THe toberone.com it comes from says: "The TOBLERONE brand is registered with the Federal Institute for Intellectual Property in Bern, and shortly thereafter TOBLERONE becomes the first patented milk chocolate with almonds and honey. The physicist Albert Einstein, barely thirty years old, is employed at the Institute. A few years later, he will become famous for his theory of relativity." It doesn't say Einstein approved it. Therefore, probably not true. Besides his specialty was electromechanical devives. GangofOne 07:47, 5 March 2006 (UTC)

A few thoughts on this:

1. Toblerone has some problems with present/past tense.

2. The person who today (19Feb07) changed patented to trademarked probably is wrong because it says earlier in the article (as well as the quote above) that the machinery and process were patented. So I'm going to revert it, but will let others sink their teeth into this more deeply. (Sorry, couldn't resist.) Bellagio99 23:33, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

Kudos
A damn fine chocolate bar, I must say. -71.49.163.77 03:23, 30 August 2006 (UTC).

 * For a mid-priced commercial bar yes. But have you tried Leonidas (Belgian) or Stubbe (Ottawa-Toronto)? Bellagio99 23:33, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

No of peaks
I must dispute the number of peaks in the 35g bar.

I bought a multipack of 4 in the UK today and it certainly only had 8 peaks. :)

Wonder if it differs between countries? This was a yellow standard one btw :)

 * Could it be that the UK is being diddled of a Toblerone peak? Or, if the weight is the same, does this mean that Toblerone peaks in the UK are larger than those abroad? Given that Toblerone is from Switzerland, there must be an official document that outlines all the dimensional standards of a bar, with angles and volume etc. -Ashley Pomeroy (talk) 17:42, 16 September 2008 (UTC)

Moreover, there is also a single peak version (in a foil wrapper) which seems to be given out in hotels and such like. I don't know about the official documentation of toblerones though. I doubt the Swiss would go that far. Qualalol (talk) 13:49, 27 February 2010 (UTC)

Piccy
On a more serious note, the photograph in the article is very good; and perhaps because of this it seems to have been nicked by these people here. -Ashley Pomeroy (talk) 17:42, 16 September 2008 (UTC)

170g bar
The bars I buy from my local store are 170g and have 11 peaks.

I haven't edited the main page as I'm not entirely sure how to add this info and don't want to risk damaging the page. If you need proof I can post a picture!

Swiss - US
Toblerone is undoubtedly a Swiss brand as it existed for about 80 years before being bought by a US company, and was very well known throughout the world long before becoming US owned, and that Mondeléz is a US company is already prominently mentioned in the lede of the article, so please stop the silly, and very chauvinistic, edit-war that is going on. Thomas.W talk 17:21, 25 August 2015 (UTC)
 * In addition to that Mondeléz themselves describe Toblerone as "a Swiss chocolate bar" (http://www.mondelezinternational.com/brand-family ; scroll down a bit and click on the Toblerone logo). Thomas.W talk 17:31, 25 August 2015 (UTC)

 * Thanks for your "considered" response (pls refrain from it, if you like to be addressed politely in the future, yourself)! – Nevertheless, though it is obvious that Toblerone used to be a Swiss brand for a quite a long period, as you said, the "the Swiss brand Toblerone" does imply that this Swiss attribute is still true, even nowadays. But I am not so sure this is still valid. What kind of definition would you apply so that you seriously can claim it is currently a Swiss brand? The past (yes), the presence (no), the owner (no), the origin of the ingredients (questionable), the production costs paid by (hardly), ... or what? Currently (since 2010) the Swiss parliament discusses this issue, in order to be able to declare who has the right to claim their products to be Swiss labeled. And it is obviously not an easy task! But since the owner of Toblerone has been an US-american since 1990, you cannot easily claim that it is still a Swiss brand. It used to be, but I doubt it still is. So therefore I prefer not to claim it explicitly!

 * BTW: Of course they like it to market as Swiss product, especially as a Swiss chocolate, since this is a very strong attribute, valid millions of dollars, of course. -- ZH8000 (talk) 17:44, 25 August 2015 (UTC)

 * Established brands/companies don't change nationality just because the stocks in the company change owners. Chrysler is still a US brand even though it's owned by an Italian company (Fiat), Volvo is still a Swedish brand even though their owners are Chinese (Geely), and Toblerone is still a Swiss brand even though their owners are American (Mondeléz). It's as simple as that. Thomas.W talk 17:51, 25 August 2015 (UTC)

 * A much too simply approach, IMHO, but that is not the question here, what I or you think. The encylopadic approach of WP is NOT WP:OR, nor personal opinions. Your given examples may be "correct", but that does not imply it is correct for Toblerone, also. Again, Mondalez very much likes it to claim it as a Swiss product, as you proved just previously by yourself, but self-declaration is neither a valid WP policy (see: WP:SOAP). So, despite your own claim (not valid as such according WP policies), and despite their own claim (neither valid according WP policies) I do not have an independent statement that Toblerone is  still  a Swiss product! Therefore, I prefer to remove this explicit, not independently cited claim. -- ZH8000 (talk) 18:02, 25 August 2015 (UTC)

 * It's not just my opinion, it's established praxis here on en-WP (check the page history on articles like Land Rover and others). And there's no need for an independent reference for Toblerone being a Swiss brand, we'll take Mondeléz' word for it (see WP:SPS, self-published sources, including the company's own website, are allowed as references as long as an article isn't mainly based on such sources; so it's properly sourced...). Thomas.W talk 18:12, 25 August 2015 (UTC)

 * We do not talk about the whole article, but about one single statement (Swissness), so your last argument is irrelevant. So it is only source on one single reference by the owner itself, and stays still only a claim by the owner. Therefore it is not properly sourced. -- ZH8000 (talk) 18:22, 25 August 2015 (UTC)

 * And PLEASE, read at least the document of the previousy given link about Swissness before we proceed about this subject. thx. -- ZH8000 (talk) 18:30, 25 August 2015 (UTC)

 * No, we do not talk about "Swissness", we talk about Toblerone being a Swiss brand, a fact that is as properly sourced as it can be. And it's not about labelling Toblerone as Swiss in order to make it seem better or more exclusive than it is, if that was the case Mondeléz would describe Milka as a Swiss brand too, but they don't, they describe it as a European brand. Besides, A) it's been a long time since people in other countries were impressed by things being Swiss, and saw that as a stamp of quality, and B) the document you linked to is totally irrelevant since this is the English language Wikipedia, a US organisation governed by US laws, not Swiss laws. Thomas.W talk 18:34, 25 August 2015 (UTC)

LOL, who is the chauvinist now? Of course it is about the Swissness of the Toblerone product, nothing else, actually. What else does the adjective Swiss refer to!??? - If you do not ike it: just leave it away! And your A) and B) points are totally irrelevant for this discussion, as far as irrelevant as any arbitrarily chosen statement can be. And the only authority to define Swissness is only and obviously the Swiss government, anything else is just pure arrogant chauvinism. And, LOL, tell your assumptions about the English WP to be an ALL-US-american item and nothing else, to all other people speaking English on this worl! I am happy to learn about their thoughts. LOL. – You are concious how rediculous your arguments became in the mean time, don't you!?? :-)) -- ZH8000 (talk) 18:54, 25 August 2015 (UTC)
 * You're free to have whatever opinion you want about me, just as I am free to have whatever opinion I want of you. But this isn't about me or you, it's about Toblerone being referred to as a Swiss brand by Mondeléz, with a proper reference. And your attempts to remove that statement are chauvinistic, since you obviously feel that having an American owner doesn't make Toblerone Swiss enough to "deserve the honour of being called a Swiss brand". As if that was more of an honour than being labelled as a brand of any of a number of other countries. Thomas.W talk 19:03, 25 August 2015 (UTC)

 * LOL, you are a funny guy. Young man, I never ever said such a thing and I will never say such stupid statements. These are solely your own uber-interpreted products of your obviously misleaded, free -floating imagination. But I, however, would very much prefer a serious, adult discussion, but it looks like you are not able to. So therefore I will escalate it repsectively. I wish you better, more serious arguments and more peace in yourself for the future. So long. -- ZH8000 (talk) 19:11, 25 August 2015 (UTC)
 * "Young man"? I am with all probability older than you, with more real life experience than you, so your childish attempts to patronise me make you look silly, not me. Thomas.W talk 19:16, 25 August 2015 (UTC)

Toblerone line and trademark
The "Cultural impact" section begins "It has been suggested that the distinct pyramidal shape of the bar lent its name to the Toblerone line, a series of anti-tank emplacements prevalent in Switzerland's border areas. However, the Toblerone brand was trademarked in 1909, at the Swiss Federal Institute of Intellectual Property in Bern."

What has the first sentence to to with the second? Since the Toblerone line was built in WWII, more than 30 years after the trademark date, the "however" makes no sense. Perhaps the person who wrote the second sentence didn't quite know what "lent its name to" means? Or am I missing something?

Unless anyone sees reasons not to, I suggest we remove "It has been suggested that" from the first sentence, and the entire second sentence, which only repeats information given earlier. --ChasFink (talk) 17:53, 15 December 2016 (UTC)

The "Toblerone line" has had a recent resurrection with the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022 where they have been nick-named "cope pyramids" as they have basically no real effect to how a modern war is fought. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jcldude (talk • contribs) 16:59, 22 November 2022 (UTC)

Deletion of last item in the 'Cultural' section
I deleted the last item in the cultural section which detailed a private individual's custom order.

References in Infinite Jest
If I can be bothered I'll add it myself later, but re: Toblerone's cultural impact there are passing references to it in David Foster Wallace's Infinite Jest - the earliest and most relevant example is that Toblerone is the main vice of a Saudi Prince who eats so much of the stuff he needs a medical attaché to regularly attend to his yeasty microbiome. 49.184.178.216 (talk) 21:48, 25 December 2021 (UTC)

Billy Newton-Davis

Billy Newton-Davis (born April 26, 1951, in Cleveland, Ohio, United States) is an American-Canadian R&B, jazz and gospel singer and songwriter.

Biography
Newton-Davis grew up in Shaker Heights, Ohio, a suburb of Cleveland. He was one of two lead singers in a local soul band called The Illusions. After working as a singer and dancer on Broadway, he moved to Toronto, Ontario in 1980.

Shibuichi

Shibuichi (四分一) is a historically Japanese copper alloy, a member of the irogane class, which is patinated into a range of subtle greys and muted shades of blue, green, and brown, through the use of niiro processes, involving the rokushō compound.

Naming
Shibuichi means "one-fourth" in Japanese, and indicates the standard formulation of one part silver to three parts copper, though this may vary considerably according to the desired effect. Several major variants of the alloy have specific names, as detailed below. In addition, the metal in general, and especially the paler shades, may be named rogin.

Composition
Aside from the basic 25% silver to 75% copper mix, combinations as divergent as 5% silver to 95% copper are also marketed as "shibuichi". A wide range of colours can be achieved using the whole range of alloy compositions, even above 50% silver, e.g. 90% copper and 10% silver for a dark grey and down to 70% copper and 30% silver for lighter greys.

Kuro-Shibuichi (Kin-IchibuSashi)

Kuro is black in Japanese and kuro-shibuichi is different from other variants in the table, being a mixture of shibuichi (~40%) and shakudō (~60%) with around 1% of gold (proportions could be, for example, 9.9% silver, 87.3% copper, and 2.8% gold). Kuro-shibuichi will develop a black patina which is different from the black patina of shakudo.

It is a common misconception that both copper and silver oxides form, but in fact a detailed study has shown that only copper oxides are formed on the copper rich regions of the material's microstructure, while the silver rich regions are left largely untouched.

History
The first official mention of the material is from the early 18th century, in documents from the State Mint, though it is believed to have existed before that. For most of its history, shibuichi was mostly used to ornament various fittings for Japanese swords until the Meiji reforms, when most swordmakers began to make purely decorative objects instead. The material is often used in mokume-gane combinations. Similar alloys have been used elsewhere but the use of shibuichi to achieve different colored patinas appears to have remained nearly unknown outside Japan, until recent interest from artisans in the West.

Victoria, Newfoundland and Labrador

Victoria is a landlocked town on the Avalon Peninsula in Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada, located approximately midway on the Bay de Verde Peninsula portion of the Avalon Peninsula.

Geography
Victoria, located on Route 70, is often referred to as the "crossroads to Trinity and Conception Bays." Victoria may have been named after the Queen.

Towns and communities nearby
Dotted around Victoria and surrounding areas are small fishing communities that were established due to the proximity of each community to the fishing grounds. Locally, Victoria goes by many nicknames, including "The Village" and "The Savage Hollar", although the use of these names has decreased in recent years. Among the communities within 15-minutes' driving distance from Victoria are:
 * Perry's Cove
 * Salmon Cove
 * Freshwater
 * Carbonear
 * Bristol's Hope

19th century

 * 1817 – Victoria is being used as a source of lumber and firewood.
 * 1800s – Many residents of Victoria sign on for the Labrador Fishery with merchants in Carbonear, Harbour Grace and Northern Bay.

20th century

 * 1900s (early) – Other people find employment in lumbering, the railway and mining at Bell Island and Cape Breton.
 * 1905 – An electric power station is running in the community.
 * 1916 — Railway service on the Bay de Verde Branch Line is opened.
 * 1921 – Sawmills are affected when a forest fire destroys much of the timber in the area. Nicholas Powell and Reuben, William and Nicholas Clarke are the merchants in Victoria.

Guittard Chocolate Company

The Guittard Chocolate Company is an American-based chocolate maker which produces couverture chocolate, using original formulas and traditional French methods. The company was founded in 1868 and is headquartered in Burlingame, California. It is the oldest continuously family-owned chocolate company in the United States, having been family-owned for more than four generations.

History
Guittard Chocolate was founded by Etienne "Eddy" Guittard (1838–1899), who immigrated to the United States from Tournus, France, in the 1850s during the California Gold Rush. He brought French chocolates with him, which he traded for supplies. After trying without success for three years to strike gold in the Sierra, he returned to San Francisco, where shopkeepers with whom he had earlier traded his chocolate convinced him to become a chocolate maker. He then returned to Paris, saved money to buy the equipment he needed, before returning to San Francisco and opening his business at 405 Sansome Street on the San Francisco waterfront. Initially, he also sold items such as tea, coffee, and spices alongside his chocolate.

Horace C. Guittard, Étienne's son, was in charge when the 1906 San Francisco earthquake destroyed the city. In the aftermath of the quake, a new plant was built on Commercial Street. The company expanded in 1921 and 1936 onto property on Main Street south of Market.

In 1954, Guittard sold its property to the city so that Embarcadero Freeway could be built. The company relocated to a 75000 sqft facility at the corner of Guittard and Rollins road in Burlingame, California, where it is still located today.

Gary Guittard began working full-time at the company in 1975. He replaced Horace A. Guittard (his father) in 1989, becoming president and CEO.

Products
The company produces cocoa, chocolate syrup, milk chocolate balls and eggs, baking chips, as well as mints and mint wafers. 85% of Guittard's clients are food industry professionals, while 15% are pastry chefs. Customers include See's Candies, Rocky Mountain Chocolate, Kellogg's, Baskin-Robbins, Recchiuti Confections, Garrison Confections, Williams Sonoma, and Nation's Giant Hamburgers The company also sells to chef Donald Wressel and has recently developed a variety of chocolate bars specifically designed for amateur bakers.

Tonnage and poundage

Tonnage and poundage were English duties and taxes first levied in Edward II's reign on every tun (cask) of imported wine, which came mostly from Spain and Portugal, and on every pound weight of merchandise exported or imported. Traditionally tonnage and poundage was granted by Parliament to the king for life, but this practice did not continue into the reign of Charles I. Tonnage and poundage were swept away by the Customs and Excise Act 1787.

History
Introduced in the 14th century, tonnage was a duty upon all wines imported in addition to prisage and butlerage, while poundage was a duty imposed ad valorem at the rate of twelve pence in the pound on all merchandise imported or exported. The duties were levied at first by agreement with merchants (poundage in 1302, tonnage in 1347), then granted by Parliament in 1373, at first for a limited period only. They were considered to be imposed for the defence of the realm. From the reign of Henry VI they were usually granted for life.

Charles I's first parliament, known as the Useless Parliament, broke with tradition and granted the king tonnage and poundage for a year rather than life out of concern over the manner in which the tonnage and poundage's life grant of 1604 had been used by James I to justify impositions, which were additional duties imposed on certain items. This restriction was seen as a provocative step by Parliament as it was one of the King's main sources of revenue, and Parliament intended the one-year limit to curb Charles' autonomy by forcing him to request money from Parliament every year thereafter. Although the House of Commons passed this bill, George Villiers, 1st Duke of Buckingham led a successful effort in the House of Lords to block it. As a result, Parliament granted Charles no tonnage and poundage rights at all, which, combined with Parliament's efforts to impeach the Duke of Buckingham, led to Charles' first parliament being dissolved.

Charles, however, continued to collect unauthorised tonnage and poundage duties, and this action became a chief complaint of Charles' failed parliament of 1629. When Charles moved to adjourn the parliament, members held the speaker, John Finch, in his seat until three resolutions could be read, one of which declared anyone who paid unauthorised tonnage and poundage to be a betrayer and enemy of England.

Impact
Charles I's levying of tonnage and poundage without parliamentary sanction continued to be one of the complaints of his Long Parliament. The refusal of and subsequent disputes about tonnage and poundage rights is seen as one of the many events bearing responsibility for the English Civil War.

After the Restoration they were granted to Charles II and his two successors for life. By acts of Queen Anne and George I the duties were made perpetual, and mortgaged for the public debt. In 1787 they were finally abolished by the Customs Consolidation Act, and other modes of obtaining revenue substituted.

Master Keaton

Master Keaton (MASTERキートン) is a Japanese manga series created by Hokusei Katsushika, Naoki Urasawa, and Takashi Nagasaki. It was serialized in Big Comic Original from 1988 to 1994, with its 144 chapters collected into 18 tankōbon volumes by Shogakukan. In North America, Viz Media licensed the manga for English release.

An anime adaptation was created by Madhouse, with 24 episodes airing from 1998 to 1999 in Japan on Nippon Television. An additional 15 episodes were created and released as original video animations (OVAs), bringing the total to 39 episodes. The anime and OVA series were dubbed into English and released in North America by Pioneer Entertainment from 2003 to 2004. Naoki Urasawa and Takashi Nagasaki created a sequel to the series, titled Master Keaton Remaster. Set 20 years after the original series ended, it ran in Big Comic Original from 2012 to 2014 and was collected into a single volume.

By 2014, Master Keaton had over 20 million copies in circulation, making it one of the best-selling manga series of all time.

Plot
The story revolves around Taichi Hiraga-Keaton, the son of Japanese zoologist Taihei Hiraga and well-born Englishwoman Patricia Keaton. Keaton's parents separated when he was five, and young Taichi moved back to England with his mother. As an adult, he studied archeology at Oxford University, in part under the tutelage of Professor Yuri Scott. At Oxford, Keaton met and later married his wife, who was a mathematics student at Somerville College. The couple years later divorced, with Keaton leaving his five-year-old daughter Yuriko in her mother's care. After leaving Oxford, Keaton joined the British Army and became a member of the SAS, holding the post of survival instructor and seeing combat in the Falklands War and as one of the team members that responded to the Iranian Embassy siege. His combat training serves him in good stead as an insurance investigator for the prestigious Lloyd's of London where he is known for his abilities and his unorthodox methods of investigation. In addition to his work for Lloyd's, Keaton and his friend Daniel O'Connell operate their own insurance investigation agency headquartered in London. Even though Keaton is extremely successful as an insurance investigator, his dream is to continue his archaeological research into the possible origins of an ancient European civilization in the Danube river basin.

Production
There is controversy over who wrote the stories for Master Keaton. Hokusei Katsushika is a pseudonym of manga story writer Hajime Kimura, who was also a co-writer of Golgo 13. Originally, Katsushika created the series' story, while Naoki Urasawa did the artwork. However, after Katsushika died of cancer in December 2004, Urasawa claimed in a May 2005 interview with Shūkan Bunshun that Katsushika eventually stopped work as a story writer due to a personal conflict with him, after which Urasawa alone created both story and art. Because of this, Urasawa demanded that Katsushika's name appear smaller than his on the manga's covers. Manga story writer Kariya Tetsu, who was a close friend of Katsushika and an influential figure at Shogakukan, opposed this action vehemently, which resulted in the discontinuation of the further publication of the manga by July 2005. In 2019, Urasawa said that he had the ideas for the characters and Master Keaton was very much based on that. He was also going to write the manga in addition to illustrating it, but because he was already writing Yawara!, the editorial team was concerned about a young artist being able to create both. They brought in story writers, but the stories they proposed did not match Urasawa's vision. So instead meetings were held to create stories for the manga. But eventually the editors changed, and these "intimate" meetings were no longer possible. This is when Urasawa took the lead on writing the stories. He said that for the last two volumes, it is fair to say he came up with the stories alone.

Jason Thompson reported that Viz Media considered translating Master Keaton for release in North America in the 1990s, but were "scared off" by the low sales of their release of Urasawa's earlier work, Pineapple Army.

Urasawa and Takashi Nagasaki began the sequel Master Keaton Remaster (MASTERキートン Reマスター) in 2012. When asked why he went back to a series after so many years, Urasawa stated it was because with the original series he had a hard time making the story he wanted due to contractual obligation, and because people affected by the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami said they had enjoyed the series, so he wanted to do something for them.

Manga
Master Keaton was serialized in Big Comic Original from 1988 to 1994. The 144 chapters were collected into 18 tankōbon volumes by Shogakukan between November 1988 and August 1994. A kanzenban edition of the series, including color pages, was published in 12 volumes between August 30, 2011, and June 29, 2012. During its initial magazine run and tankōbon release, Hokusei Katsushika was credited as its writer and Naoki Urasawa as its illustrator. The kanzenban reissue co-credits Katsushika and Takashi Nagasaki as the writers for the first five volumes, while Katsushika and Urasawa are co-credited as the writers from volumes six on. From 1989 to 1993, Katsushika and Urasawa serialized Keaton Animal Files (キートン動物記) in special issues of Big Comic Original. The 14 chapters were collected into one tankōbon volume on March 28, 1995, which sees their original two-colored artwork turned into four-colors.

Naoki Urasawa and Takashi Nagasaki created a sequel to the series, titled Master Keaton Remaster. It was published irregularly in Big Comic Original from March 19, 2012, to August 20, 2014. The chapters were collected into a single volume on November 28, 2014, with a deluxe edition including the full color pages from the magazine run released the same day.

In 2014, Viz Media licensed Master Keaton for release in North America. Viz Media published the 12-volume kanzenban edition from December 16, 2014, to September 19, 2017.

Anime
An anime adaptation covering a portion of the manga's select chapters aired from October 6, 1998, to March 30, 1999, in Japan on Nippon TV. The series was produced by Madhouse, Nippon Television, Shōgakukan and VAP and directed by Masayuki Kojima, with Tatsuhiko Urahata handling series composition, Kitarō Kōsaka designing the characters and Kuniaki Haishima composing the music. Originally consisting of 24 episodes, an additional 15 episodes were created and released as original video animations from June 21, 1999, to June 21, 2000, bringing the total to 39 episodes. The anime is narrated by Keaton Yamada.

The opening theme "Railtown" is by Kuniaki Haishima. The ending theme for episodes 1–13 is "Eternal Wind" by Blüe, "Tameiki" (ため息) by Kneuklid Romance for episodes 14–26, and "From Beginning" by Kuniaki Haishima for episodes 27–39. New ending themes were used for the anime's 2007 rebroadcast; "Tsuki to Kimi to Boku no Kankei" (月と君と僕の関係) by Kneuklid Romance for episodes 1–13 and "Eber" by Blüe for episodes 14–24.

The anime and OVAs were licensed in North America by Pioneer Entertainment (later named Geneon), with an English dub produced by The Ocean Group. They released eight DVDs from June 10, 2003, to August 10, 2004.

Manga
By November 2014, Master Keaton had over 20 million copies in circulation. On TV Asahi's Manga Sōsenkyo 2021 poll, in which 150,000 people voted for their top 100 manga series, Master Keaton ranked #49. Viz Media's release of Master Keaton was nominated in the "Best U.S. Edition of International Material—Asia" category two years in a row at the 2015 and 2016 Eisner Awards. The series was also included on the Young Adult Library Services Association's 2016 list of Great Graphic Novels for Teens.

Mark Sammut of Comic Book Resources praised Master Keaton as an "exhilarating adventure series" that "tackles weighty themes while generally maintaining an accessible tone through its endearing cast of characters and episodic nature." Jason Thompson called it a solid action-adventure series, whose "somewhat old-fashioned structure" reminded him of Golgo 13. Otaku USA's Joseph Luster claimed that with the series, Urasawa, Katsushika and Nagasaki "[weave] a gripping tale of intrigue that bubbles and boils along with the best thrillers out there." He strongly praised Urasawa's art; "Story beats and transitions are confidently executed, and there's just the right amount of exposition peppered in to make it all seem natural." Luster felt that Master Keaton had the potential to appeal to a wider audience than most manga available in English. In a review of the first English volume for Anime News Network, Rebecca Silverman called the premise of the book fascinating and its stories well-told, but felt the episodic nature of the chapters took away from its overall strength. She described the title character as "a bit like a dorkier Indiana Jones, hiding his badassery under a bad haircut and wrinkled suit" and cited him as a reason to read the series. Silverman speculated that Master Keaton is for mature readers looking for something more serious, as the "motivations of the characters is just as, if not more, important to the plot as the actual events themselves, and even though Urasawa's art is clear and clean, this is not a book you read quickly."

Anime
Hiromi Hasegawa of Ex.org called the anime adaptation's faithfulness to the manga very good; "it has succeeded in capturing the atmosphere of the original and conveying that in a different media. But on the other hand, when watching the show it feels as if I'm reading a manga that moves and talks." They described the episodes, which often take place in Europe, as ranging from murder mysteries to anti-terrorist activities with occasional archaeological/zoological or family interests. Hasegawa noted that each episode has at least one action scene, but explained that these serve as plot devices rather than focal points as the show's plot is "intensely dialogue-oriented." Although Hasegawa praised the art as beautiful and detailed, they had complaints with fluctuations in the animation quality. Hasegawa finished their review by recommending Master Keaton to mature audiences with more sophisticated tastes, and said they learned "quite a bit about political, historical, and ethnic situations in Europe as well as interesting theories in Archaeology or military techniques and weaponry" from the series.

Reviewing the anime for Anime News Network, Zac Bertschy described Master Keaton as a cross between a Tom Clancy novel and Matlock that defies all the conventions of anime and is clearly aimed at older audience. Although calling the stories unique and interesting, he stated that the show never becomes gripping because they teeter "between exciting". Bertschy found the animation to be "competent but nothing special" and the English dub to be "a little on the silly side."

Springfield–Branson National Airport

Springfield–Branson National Airport (formerly Springfield–Greene County Airport, Springfield Municipal Airport, and Springfield–Branson Regional Airport) is 5 mi northwest of Springfield, Missouri, in Greene County, United States. The airport has non-stop flights to fourteen U.S. cities.

History
The airport opened as the Springfield–Greene County Airport on July 2, 1945, following bond issues of $350,000 in 1942 and $150,000 in 1945 to build the airport. It replaced the Springfield Park and Airport on East Division Street (which now operates as Downtown Airport). Springfield Park was the former McCluer Flying Field, which opened in 1925 and was purchased by the city in 1928; it had scheduled service by American Airlines and Transcontinental and Western. The airlines pulled out in the Great Depression.

The airport was renamed the Springfield Municipal Airport after the city and the county disagreed on funding.

American Airlines began scheduled flights to the new airport in 1945–46; it pulled out in 1963. Chicago and Southern arrived in 1948 and Ozark in 1951; the first scheduled jets were Ozark DC-9s in 1966. A new terminal opened in October 1964, paid for by a 1960 $600,000 bond issue.

In 1992, the airport was renamed the Springfield–Branson Regional Airport, capitalizing on the sudden rise of the Branson tourist industry; the airport is northwest of Springfield, and Branson is more than 50 mi southeast of the airport. In that same year, the community of Lakeview, renamed itself Branson West." Branson has not said anything formal about the airport's running.

In May 2006, ground was broken for a new terminal and it was announced the airport would be renamed Springfield–Branson National Airport. The new Midfield Terminal opened on May 6, 2009, designed by Reynolds, Smith & Hills. The terminal was renamed in December 2022 to honor retiring U.S. Senator Roy Blunt, who had represented Springfield in the House of Representatives from 1997 to 2011.

The airport hit one million passengers for the first time in 2018.

Accidents and incidents

 * At 10:36 pm on March 20, 1955, American Airlines Flight 711 crashed more than a mile north of the airport. Eleven of 32 passengers died, along with the stewardess and copilot. The federal investigation blamed pilot error misjudging the altitude. It is the only fatal accident on airport property.

Facilities
The airport covers 2,750 acre and has two runways: 14/32, asphalt/concrete, 8,000 x; and 2/20, concrete, 7,003 x.

In the year ending December 31, 2021 the airport had 47,565 aircraft operations, average 130 per day: 44% general aviation, 27% air taxi, 6% military and 22% airline. 142 aircraft at that time were based at this airport: 87 single-engine, 10 multi-engine, 33 jet, 2 helicopters, and 10 military.

An Army National Guard unit is based at Springfield–Branson, the 35th combat aviation brigade, detachment 3 company 1 of the 185th aviation regiment. "The 35th Combat Aviation Brigade deploys to an area of responsibility to provide command, control, staff planning and supervision of combat aviation brigade operations. The brigade's units fly a combination of AH-64A Apache attack helicopters, OH-58 Kiowa observation helicopters and UH-60 Blackhawk utility helicopters. It also has a detachment of two C-23 Sherpa cargo airplanes and a C-12 transport airplane."

Financial data
The strongest area of income for SGF is from non-aeronautical revenue activities including parking and rental cars. This is followed by fuel sales, terminal fees and landing fees. Parking income has been the strongest for the past year and has followed enplanement trends with a drop in revenues in FY 2008, and increasing again in FY 2010, with the highest level to date at more than $2.5 million.

Personnel is the largest expenditure for the airport: this major operating expense is increasing per year and remains the highest by a very large margin. Additionally, an expense that sticks out is a sharp increase in contractual series between FY 2011 and FY 2012.

Hence, fanfiction, fanmaps, etc. are not appropriate encyclopedic fare unless some context other than fans (e.g. getting on the 6 o'clock news for being scary), it is inappropriate content.

Wikipedia:Peer review/Fauna of Australia/archive1

Fauna of Australia
I've rewritten this article from a list to probably the only article on Wikipeida that comprehensively covers the diversity of fauna from one country. I'm looking for comments about the text, is there anything confusing, or that you though would be mentioned and isn't; and also for comments about the balance of topics covered. Thanks. --nixie 02:33, 25 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Well yes, that first sentence threw me a bit. When it says, "including over 83% of mammals, 89% of reptiles, 90% of fish and 93% of amphibians", does that mean 83% of mammals, &c., native to Australia? Or 83% of mammals, &c., world-wide? You may want to split off the part of the sentence that begins with "including" and clarify to what it applies. Otherwise it's a good-looking article. Thanks. :) — RJH 14:26, 25 July 2005 (UTC)
 * RJH is right about that phrase; maybe "many Australian animals are found nowhere else including over 83% of the country's mammals, 89% of its reptiles, 90% of its fish and 93% of its amphibians"? Even that's not right (presumably), because it's probably talking about number of species, not population.  Also, it's bad form to use summary style for an article that doesn't exist (Natural history of Australia).  The article also needs a thorough copyedit -- there are fragments and other structure/punctuation errors throughout. --Spangineer  (háblame)  17:30, July 25, 2005 (UTC)
 * Just noticed the last sentence of =Invertebrates= section: "Australian lobsters do not have claws." That sounds bad, just tacking it on like that.  Is there a notable australian crab lobster species that could be discussed, to which could be added the phrase "this lobster, like all australian lobsters, does not have claws". --Spangineer  (háblame)  17:34, July 25, 2005 (UTC)

I've cleared up the problem with the lead, and copyedited the bulk of the article, although I'm sure other editors will pick up more errors. The summary style link is there since I intend to have that article up in the next few days. Thanks. --nixie 03:12, 26 July 2005 (UTC)

 * I like it a lot. But -
 * "Many" of the animals are found nowhere else? 83-93% is a "most".
 * Estimates of endemism of the inverts would be nice (if available)
 * Since most of the inverebrates are unknown there isn't a general estimate, the best I've found is 90% of mollusca and 90% of insecta, and unknown for all the other groups, I'll include the known ones in the text, and the fact that they're mostly unknown :)
 * The last line of the "Origins..." section - "The establishment of the fauna and speciation was effected by the flora, which in turn was shaped by the climate and the old and nutrient poor soil, by selection and by population genetics." - this seems like an overly general statement about evolution as a whole, and the "and by population genetics" seems like an afterthought takced on.
 * In the "Mammals" section, the statement "Australia has been inhabited by humans since the Pleistocene (20,000-50,000 years before present) during that period the Australian megafauna, which included giant marsupials, and an unknown number of mammals became extinct due to human activites and climate change." is a little long, and would probably be better split into two.
 * "The Thylacine, commonly known as the Tasmanian Tiger, was the last living specimen of the family Thylacinidae, however it is believed to be extinct after systematic annihilation by the European settlers of Australia." - I think that "systematic annihilation" is a tad strong for something that is only "believed to be extinct" - annihilation is total, and the extinction history is probably a little more complicated than that.
 * In the "Placental mammals" section, "Other domestic species have escaped and over time have produced wild populations.... Only three species of placental mammal were introduced to Australia by accident..." These statements appera to contradict each other, since "escape" is "accidental".
 * "Birds" - third paragraph, sentance starts with "23 species..." - should be "Twenty-three species..." since you don't start sentaces with numbers.
 * "Fish" - do Australian fish belong to freshwater families, or do they belong to marine clades? If available, this would be interesting.
 * Guettarda 15:06, 28 July 2005 (UTC)

 * I struck out the complete points so I can keep track, I'm still working on some of the trickier points.--nixie 11:59, 31 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Fishes are done.--nixie 12:56, 31 July 2005 (UTC)

What does this sentence mean: "After the Miocene, fauna of Asian origin could have become established in Australia."? Does it mean Asiatic fauna possibly became established in Australia or does it mean they had the opportunity to?--Cyberjunkie | Talk 12:54, 31 July 2005 (UTC)

 * It means both. I got rid of the could--nixie 12:56, 31 July 2005 (UTC)

Jeremy Camp

Jeremy Thomas Camp (born January 12, 1978) is an American contemporary Christian singer and songwriter from Lafayette, Indiana. He has released eleven albums, four of them RIAA-certified as Gold, and two live albums. Camp's original music is a mixture of ballads and up-tempo songs with rock influence. He has won five GMA Dove Awards, has been nominated for three American Music Awards, and was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Pop/Contemporary Gospel Album in 2010 for his album, Speaking Louder Than Before. I Still Believe, a film based on Camp's first marriage, was released in 2020, with Camp being played by New Zealand actor KJ Apa.

Early life
Jeremy Camp was born in Lafayette, Indiana. His father Tom, the pastor at Harvest Chapel (associated with Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa), taught him how to play guitar. He studied theology at Calvary Chapel Bible College in Murrieta, California, and graduated with a degree. After his studies, he was ordained minister. After one of the worship leaders heard him play in the kitchen of the school, he urged Camp to become a part of the worship team. Soon, he led worship and played all over Southern California.

2000s
His first independent album, Burden Me, was released in 2000. In 2002, he produced his first label album, Stay, with BEC Recordings.

Camp has scored 32 No. 1 hits on Christian Radio across all formats (Contemporary Hit Radio, Hot AC, Rock, and Inspirational Charts). His album Beyond Measure contributed six back-to-back No. 1 hits, including the track "Let It Fade", which held the No 1. spot for 10 weeks on AC Radio. His first single was "Understand". He has made ten music videos: "Understand", "Walk by Faith", "Take You Back", "Tonight", "Give You Glory", "Let It Fade", "I Am Willing" (a song that was not included on any of his albums), "Speaking Louder Than Before", "The Way", and "Reckless".

Camp scored Christian music top spots for "Take You Back" and "Lay Down My Pride". He also was voted the Best Male Artist in the 2005 Reader's Choice Music Awards in the Christianity Today magazine. Camp was also ASCAP 2005 Songwriter of the Year and won the Dove Award for the Male Vocalist of the Year for the second consecutive year. In 2005, he recorded the song "Open Up Your Eyes" for the compilation release Music Inspired by the Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, a September 2005 album which contained original songs written by various Christian artists for the 2005 film The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe. Camp closed the year with both Stay and Carried Me: the Worship Project being RIAA-certified as Gold.

Camp earned the top honors at the Twenty-Eighth Annual ASCAP Music Awards, winning the Songwriter of the Year award ("Take You Back" and "This Man"). "Take You Back" also earned him the Song of the Year award. Camp won two 2006 CCM Reader's Choice Awards, for Favorite Artist and Favorite Male Artist. He took part in the Dove award for Special Event Album of the Year, which went to Music Inspired by The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. He released a special edition of his hit album, Restored. Four new songs were included on Restored: The Deluxe Gold Edition as well as a letter to his fans.

Camp went back into the studio to record Beyond Measure in early 2006 and was released on October 31, 2006. Camp is also credited as producer for his wife's album, Don't Wait, which was released in September 2006. "Tonight", the first single from the album Beyond Measure, was released in mid-August and eventually hit No. 1 on Christian contemporary hit radio. It was the eleventh most-played single on HR stations in 2007. "Give Me Jesus", the third single off Beyond Measure made it into the top 5 on Inspirational radio. The fourth single, "Give You Glory", debuted on Jewish AJ radio at No. 16. His song "Let It Fade" was the seventh most-played song on HR radio in 2007. That year he also released a two-disc (CD and DVD) for his concert tour "Live Unplugged" recorded in Franklin, Tennessee.

His song "No Matter What" was the fourth most-played song on R&R magazine's Christian CHR chart for 2008. He also came out with his new studio album Speaking Louder Than Before, containing the hit lead single "There Will Be a Day". On November 17, 2009, Camp released another live album: Jeremy Camp Live. This album featured songs from all of Camp's previous albums. His Speaking Louder Than Before received his first Grammy nomination.

2010s
Beyond Measure was certified as Gold by the RIAA. The worship album We Cry Out was released on August 24, 2010. Camp was also a judge for the 10th annual Independent Music Awards to support independent artists' careers.

On May 20, 2011, Camp released his first book, I Still Believe. The book is about Camp's life, illuminating his childhood, the death of his first wife, and where he believes God has brought him.

Reckless was released on February 12, 2013. This was Camp's first studio album since 2008, when he released Speaking Louder Than Before. The first single released from the album was the title track, "Reckless". A video accompanied the single in February 2013. "Reckless" was followed by his second single, "My God", which reached number 5 on the Christian Songs Chart. He also released an acoustic video of "My God" to his Vevo Channel in 2013.

Camp released his ninth studio album, I Will Follow, on February 3, 2015. The album's lead single, "He Knows", was released in September 2014.

Camp released his tenth studio album, The Answer, on October 6, 2017. The album's lead single, "Word of Life", was released in June 2017.

Camp released his eleventh studio album, The Story's Not Over, on September 20, 2019. The album's lead single was "Dead Man Walking".

Personal life
Camp and his first wife, Melissa Lynn Henning-Camp (b. October 7, 1979), were married on October 21, 2000. She was diagnosed with ovarian cancer and died on February 5, 2001, when he was 23 and she was 21. Some of his early songs reflect the emotional ordeal of her illness. "I Still Believe" was the first song he wrote after her passing. "Walk by Faith" was written during their honeymoon. A film based on Camp's romance with Melissa, I Still Believe, was released in March 2020, with Camp's role being played by KJ Apa and the role of Melissa being played by Britt Robertson.

On December 15, 2003, he married Adrienne Liesching, former frontwoman for The Benjamin Gate. They have three children.

In March 2024, Camp underwent heart surgery to treat atrial fibrillation.

Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/2005-07-25/LinuxFund donation

Wikipedia will be the beneficiary of a new revenue stream in the near future, as it was included among the recipients of donations announced last week by the open source nonprofit group LinuxFund.

As reported on Friday, LinuxFund will be supporting Wikipedia with a donation of $6,000 over the next year. The announcement marks a renewal of activity by the fund, which had trouble staying on track after the departure of its executive director, but was still bringing in revenue. New Executive Director David Mandel indicated that he was working to catch up on paperwork, and that the group planned to support additional projects in the future.

LinuxFund runs a program to market a Linux credit card and receives a percentage of purchases made by cardholders. The credit card is provided in conjunction with MBNA, a financial services company, in what is known as an "affinity card" program. The money received by LinuxFund is supposed to be redistributed to open source projects.

Wikimedia Foundation Press Officer Elisabeth Bauer told NewsForge, "Like most donations, the money will therefore be used to cover hardware and bandwidth costs, and possibly software development work necessary to provide Wikimedia's free services to the public."

The other projects for which LinuxFund announced donations are the Debian Project and the freenode IRC network. Freenode, which hosts a number of IRC channels related to Wikipedia, had recently been running its own fundraising drive. Some people, however, objected to the fact that a portion of those funds would go toward the salary of its director, Rob Levin.

The potential for this donation to be a part of the Wikimedia Foundation's regular funding will help with planning for the project, according to Bauer. The contributions will be paid out over a one-year time period, and Mandel indicated that the projects will be reviewed annually.

Camp (2003 film)

Camp is a 2003 American musical comedy drama film written and directed by Todd Graff about an upstate New York performing arts summer camp. The film is based on Graff's own experiences at a similar camp called Stagedoor Manor, where many scenes of the film were filmed.

Camp was released in the United States on July 25, 2003, by IFC Films. The film received generally positive reviews from critics.

Plot
The film centers on the experiences of several teenagers at Camp Ovation, a summer theatre camp. Shy Ellen Lucas greets her friend Michael Flores, a gay teenager who was violently beaten by his classmates after showing up to his junior prom in drag. Nerdy Fritzi Wagner attempts to befriend icy Jill Simmons, but ends up toting her luggage instead. Returning camper Jenna Malloran laments that her parents forced her to have her jaw wired shut in order to lose weight. The campers are surprised by the arrival of Vlad Baumann, a handsome new camper who is, as a staff member marvels, "an honest-to-god straight boy." The camp enlists a guest counselor for the summer: composer Bert Hanley, whose play "The Children's Crusade" was a one-hit wonder many years earlier. Frustrated with his lack of recent success, he is now a grumpy alcoholic.

Vlad and Ellen flirt a bit after rehearsal one day. Soon afterward, Vlad is seduced by Jill, who later makes cruel cracks at Ellen for her weight and her inexperience with boys. Feeling guilty, Vlad comforts Ellen and the two begin to inch toward a relationship.

After Fritzi is caught washing Jill's underwear, Jill expresses her disgust with Fritzi and kicks her out of the cabin. Enraged, Fritzi sabotages Jill's next performance and takes her place mid-song, revealing her previously hidden talent.

Vlad convinces Michael to invite his parents to his next play. When they fail to show, Michael flees the stage mid-performance. Vlad reveals to Michael that he has his own hidden problem: Vlad has Obsessive Compulsive Disorder and must take medication to make life bearable.

Hanley gets into a drunken rage and tells the campers that theater will only make them bitter and lonely like himself. Vlad finds a trove of music that Hanley has written over the years but not released. During a rehearsal for the camp's benefit performance, Vlad and the campers sing one of Hanley's songs. Hanley's heart is lifted and his disposition changes.

Shortly before the benefit, Michael sleeps with Dee, Ellen's roommate, out of frustration about his unrequited crush on Vlad. Vlad and Dee end up making out on Dee's bed, and Ellen walks in on them. She runs off, hurt, and refuses to talk to Vlad.

The night of the benefit concert arrives, and the campers are starstruck as famed composer Stephen Sondheim is in attendance. The dressing room atmosphere is tense, and gets even more awkward when Vlad's girlfriend Julie shows up to see him. Fritzi sabotages Jill's makeup, causing her to break out in boils. Jill attacks her, injuring her, and both are unfit to go onstage. To replace her, Bert cuts the wires on Jenna's mouth, allowing her to sing a powerful song directed to her parents in the audience, telling them to accept her as she is.

The benefit is a hit, but Vlad, Michael, and Ellen are still arguing. Vlad admits that he is an "attention junkie" and attempts to please everyone in order to gain their good favor. Vlad explains that he still cares about Ellen and that his girlfriend Julie had just broken up with him. After another apology, Ellen forgives him, and the three go swimming.

The movie notably features a song co-written by Michael Gore, who had previously won the Academy Award For Best Original Song and the Academy Award For Best Original Score (both from the 1980 film, Fame).

The album Camp (Music from the Motion Picture) was released on the Decca/UMG label in 2003. It comprises 14 tracks:

A book with the sheet music was also published.

Box office
In the opening weekend, the film made $54,294. It came in ranking at #45, showing at only 3 theaters in the United States and averaging $18,098. The film's widest release took place in the UK where it showed in 116 theaters. It ran for 12 weeks and closed on October 16, 2003. It has grossed $1,629,862 since 2003.

It is number 96 in the genre of gay/lesbian independent films, 78 for yearly PG-13 movies for 2003, and ranked 198 for the year 2003.

Critical response
On Rotten Tomatoes, the film has a 64% approval rating, based on 107 reviews with an average rating of 5.93/10. The website's critical consensus states: "Campy comedy that squeaks by on its charms." On Metacritic, which uses a weighted average of critics' reviews, the film has a score of 55 out of 100 based on 32 reviews, indicating "mixed or average reviews".

Margaret A. McGurk of The Cincinnati Enquirer says "Like the prodigies on screen, Camp powers through its imperfections, with irresistible results." C.W. Nevius of the San Francisco Chronicle said in his review, "There is lots of music and a genuine showstopper when Jenna sings 'Here's Where I Stand' with such emotion that even her hardheaded dad gets the message." In Newsweek, David Ansen wrote, "Camp may not be as slick as Fame, but it's twice as funny and loads more honest."

Award nominations
Camp received nominations for the following awards:
 * 2004, Artios Award for Best Casting for Feature Film, Independent, Bernard Telsey
 * 2004, Independent Spirit Award for Best Debut Performance, Anna Kendrick

 * 2003, Grand Jury Prize for Dramatic at the Sundance Film Festival, Todd Graff

Sequel
Todd Graff promoted an Indiegogo campaign in 2015 to fund a sequel. Rather than treat the original as a previous year at Camp Ovation, the plot would frame Camp as a movie filmed on the campgrounds.
