Talk:(Don't Fear) The Reaper

5:26 (Full version)?
I have looked for a "full version" that is 5:26 everywhere. I have looked in AllMusic; I searched all streams available in Tidal and in Apple Music; I didn't find anything resembling that length on Discogs - even the elusive 12" UK single doesn't have it, and I could not find something that closely resembles 5:26 on Youtube (other than longer "Live" versions, but that doesn't apply for a "Full" version IMHO). Is it possible to tell me where this version is to be found?

The only version I found of 5:26 is a version ripped off by Multitracks in Youtube, where the ending seems a little bit longer. But even some of the parts don't sound the same at all than the official version. I'd take this with a grain of salt. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.231.123.2 (talk) 14:09, 12 May 2016 (UTC)

Ninja Sex Party's Version
Ninja Sex Party, an American musical comedy duo, covered the song on their 2019 album Under The Covers Vol III

Since there is a Covers heading in the article, it should probably be added. After all, the article itself has a wikipedia page ( Under the Covers, Vol. III ) and all the songs are listed there and linked to all of the song pages, including this one.

Under the Covers, Vol. III Charts for reference:

Cover en espanol occurs at least twice in "The Belko Experiment," one being end credits. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 73.88.59.121 (talk) 08:39, 18 March 2021 (UTC)

It's clearly a suicide-advocacy song.
The lyrics are written from the perspective of a psychotic young man, stridently attempting to cajole his girlfriend to join him in a suicide pact. ("Come on, baby…")

The article acknowledges the "Romeo and Juliet are together in eternity" lyric, but omits critical context: soon thereafter, the song expresses admiration for those who are dying. "We can be like they are." Suicide is painted in idealized gothic romance terms: candles flicker out; "he" (the Reaper) appears; and when the act of suicide is complete, the deceased gain the glorious ability "to fly."

Naturally, songwriter Dharma would deny that the song advocates suicide, and has denied it – reminiscent of rappers who become more mature later in life, and regret their former glorification of gang violence. Dharma's denial is not credible.

Chris Collingwood's commentary charitably calls the song "a sad ballad about a man who wants to die with his true love before their love is spoiled by earthly things." A "man who wants to die with his true love" is, by definition, a person suffering from suicide pact ideation. If Wikipedia editors truly believe the song is not about suicide, Collingwood's thoughts should be expunged as inaccurate.

Finally, note that the band chose to call itself a "cult." Destructive cults (e.g. Peoples Temple, Heaven's Gate) are notorious for convincing their members to commit suicide.

The whole tone of the article needs to change. Wikipedia is not a place to deny the existence of blatant suicide advocacy. 2601:281:D47F:AE60:48FF:BCE0:F701:9FAD (talk) 05:47, 9 August 2021 (UTC)

 * That's just your opinion - unless you can find any reliable sources taking the same view. Ghmyrtle (talk) 07:10, 9 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Really? That the Romeo and Juliet reference is closely followed by "we can be like they are" is a matter of opinion, not fact? That the deceased are repeatedly said to gain the ability "to fly" is opinion, not fact?  Um, no… not unless LyricFind is publishing falsified lyrics. (Google deems LyricFind to be a reliable source.) 2601:281:D47F:AE60:48FF:BCE0:F701:9FAD (talk) 15:28, 9 August 2021 (UTC)
 * "Advocacy" is a strong word, especially in relation to suicide. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence, beyond the mere fact of the lyrics. DonIago (talk) 16:23, 9 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Let's try a different word then. The song is clearly about a man trying to talk his female partner into a suicide pact, and Dharma used elements of gothic romance to glamorize such behavior.  While he may not explicitly advocate such behavior, he should have known that the song would push many people further down the road of suicidal ideation – in some cases, all the way to the committing of suicide.  It is impossible to know how many suicides the song has contributed to, but given that hundreds of millions of people have been exposed to its powerful lyrics, the number is certainly not zero. – the IP formerly known as 2601:281:D47F:AE60:48FF:BCE0:F701:9FAD 2601:281:D47F:AE60:6049:4AD2:452E:FD46 (talk) 14:56, 18 August 2021 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure what specific change(s) you're suggesting we make to the article here. DonIago (talk) 16:49, 18 August 2021 (UTC)

 * See also WP:SYNTHESIS - we don't allow it - and bear in mind that the lyricist has explicitly denied any suicide links - "It frankly never occurred to me that the suicide aspect of their story would be plugged in to people’s take on ‘Reaper,’ making it an advertisement for suicide....". So, we can report any reliably-sourced controversy, but certainly not claim that the song advocates suicide.   Ghmyrtle (talk) 19:49, 9 August 2021 (UTC)

 * Slow down. You claim that thy lyricist "denied any suicide links," and then, amazingly, you use a Roeser/Dharma quote that explicitly acknowledges a link between the song and a suicidal couple!  "the suicide aspect of their story".  If the song has zero links to suicide, Dharma would not be able to acknowledge "the suicide aspect of their story."  Thank you for helping to make my case.
 * I already covered the fact that Dharma denied that the song advocates suicide. If a rapper who glorified gang violence later denied that he glorified gang violence, would you find that credible?  I hope you are not that gullible.  Perhaps your personal affinity for the song is clouding your judgement on this.  (There's no doubt that musically, it's a good song.  Try to separate that from what the lyrics are objectively saying.)
 * Chris Collingwood says the song is "about a man who wants to die with his true love," and "a man who wants to die" is by definition a suicidal person. If you truly believe that the song has no "suicide links," i.e., it's not  about a man who wants to die, you should delete Collingwood's analysis at once due to its blatant inaccuracy.  – the IP formerly known as 2601:281:D47F:AE60:48FF:BCE0:F701:9FAD 2601:281:D47F:AE60:6049:4AD2:452E:FD46 (talk) 14:56, 18 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Collingwood's comments are just that - commentary. There's no particular reason to either include or exclude them.  But if Roeser says it's not about suicide - let alone "advocating" it - we have no authority for claiming that it is.  Roeser said:"I was thinking about my own mortality. I wrote the guitar riff, the first two lines of lyric sprung into my head, then the rest of it came as I formed a story about a love affair that transcends death. I was thinking about my wife, and that maybe we’d get together after I was gone.... The second verse is the one that’s caused all the trouble all these years. ‘Valentine’ is a metaphor for mortal love. ‘Romeo and Juliet’ I used as an example of a couple who had faith to take their love elsewhere when they weren’t permitted the freedom to love here and now. What I meant was, they’re in eternity cause they had the faith to believe in the possibility. It frankly never occurred to me that the suicide aspect of their story would be plugged in to people’s take on ‘Reaper,’ making it an advertisement for suicide."  And, per WP:NPA, you should never make assumptions about any other editor's motivations.  Thanks.  Ghmyrtle (talk) 15:14, 18 August 2021 (UTC)

Movie that was just like the song
There was an old black and white movie that was just like the end of the song. There used to be a youtube video where the movie was actually synched to the song, but that's gotten taken down. It seems relevant. The whole thing about the curtains blowing, the dying woman (she's on a couch in a high rise, maybe NYC 1920s?) and death comes, and they fly away, and she looks back and smiles at her boyfriend and says something. Surely this is relevant to the song? 2003:CD:EF04:396B:89D3:A84D:1D66:4FED (talk) 21:09, 27 November 2023 (UTC)

Assem Jarrah

Assem Omar Jarrah (عاصم جراح, ‘Āsim Jarrāḥ; born 1962 in Lebanon) is conflictingly reported as either the great-uncle or distant cousin of Ziad Jarrah, one of the hijackers of the September 11 attacks. His work permit was found in the smouldering remains of United Airlines Flight 93 along with Ziad's charred passport.

Jarrah enrolled in Hamburg University in 1982.

In autumn 1985 he signed up for pharmacy in University of Greifswald (East Germany) and graduated in 1990. Later he became a manager with the Lebanon division of Fresenius (company). His work included the sale of chemical and medical equipment to national governments.

In the 1980s, Assem had served with Libyan Intelligence, and worked alongside Abu Nidal, before aligning himself with Stasi where he was codenamed Karsten Berg.

He disappeared in July 2001, after claiming that he was returning to Lebanon - and resurfaced after the attacks, claiming that he was going to sue Der Spiegel for libel, for their report that he had worked with Intelligence agencies.

Timbau

The timbau or Brazilian timbal is a membranophone instrument derived from the caxambu drum, usually played with both hands. Slightly conical and of varying sizes, it is usually light in weight and made of lacquered wood or metal (usually aluminum) with a tunable nylon head. It is in the shape of an ice cream cone with the top and the point cut off.

The drum is most often found in Bahia, originating in Salvador, Bahia, and is used mainly to play Afro-Brazilian rhythms, such as axé and samba-reggae. It is played in a similar manner to the atabaque, a hand drum of which one version was brought to Brazil in slavery and is used in Candomblé rituals. In the 1980s, a musical/social movement was organized to bring the timbal to popular music.

The timbal is designed to play loud, rapid phrases and solos with powerful slaps. The sound of the timbal varies from a clear, well-defined, high tone to a strong, deep bass. The timbal is available in different lengths; a greater length produces a deeper bass.

Geotextile

Geotextiles are versatile permeable fabrics that, when used in conjunction with soil, can effectively perform multiple functions, including separation, filtration, reinforcement, protection, and drainage. Typically crafted from polypropylene or polyester, geotextile fabrics are available in two primary forms: woven, which resembles traditional mail bag sacking, and nonwoven, which resembles felt.

Geotextile composites have been introduced and products such as geogrids and meshes have been developed. Geotextiles are durable and are able to soften a fall. Overall, these materials are referred to as geosynthetics and each configuration—geonets, geosynthetic clay liners, geogrids, geotextile tubes, and others—can yield benefits in geotechnical and environmental engineering design.

History
Geotextiles were originally intended to be a substitute for granular soil filters. Geotextiles can also be referred to as filter fabrics. In the 1950s, R.J. Barrett began working using geotextiles behind precast concrete seawalls, under precast concrete erosion control blocks, beneath large stone riprap, and in other erosion control situations. He used different styles of woven monofilament fabrics, all characterized by a relatively high percentage open area (varying from 6 to 30%). He discussed the need for both adequate permeability and soil retention, along with adequate fabric strength and proper elongation and tone setting for geotextile use in filtration situations.

Applications

Geotextiles and related products have many applications and currently support many civil engineering applications including roads, airfields, railroads, embankments, retaining structures, reservoirs, canals, dams, bank protection, coastal engineering and construction site silt fences or to form a geotextile tube. Geotextiles can also serve as components of other geosynthetics such as the reinforcing material in a bituminous geomembrane. Usually geotextiles are placed at the tension surface to strengthen the soil. Geotextiles are also used for sand dune armoring to protect upland coastal property from storm surge, wave action and flooding. A large sand-filled container (SFC) within the dune system prevents storm erosion from proceeding beyond the SFC. Using a sloped unit rather than a single tube eliminates damaging scour.

Erosion control manuals comment on the effectiveness of sloped, stepped shapes in mitigating shoreline erosion damage from storms. Geotextile sand-filled units provide a "soft" armoring solution for upland property protection. Geotextiles are used as matting to stabilize flow in stream channels and swales.

Geotextiles can improve soil strength at a lower cost than conventional soil nailing. In addition, geotextiles allow planting on steep slopes, further securing the slope.

Geotextiles have been used to protect the fossil hominid footprints of Laetoli in Tanzania from erosion, rain, and tree roots.

In building demolition, geotextile fabrics in combination with steel wire fencing can contain explosive debris.

Coir (coconut fiber) geotextiles are popular for erosion control, slope stabilization and bioengineering, due to the fabric's substantial mechanical strength. Coir geotextiles last approximately 3 to 5 years depending on the fabric weight. The product degrades into humus, enriching the soil.

Glacial retreat
Geotextiles with reflective properties are often used in protecting the melting glaciers. In north Italy, they use Geotextiles to cover the glaciers for protection from the Sun. The reflective properties of the geotextile reflect the sun away from the melting glacier in order to slow the process. However, this process has proven to be more expensive than effective.

Design methods
While many possible design methods or combinations of methods are available to the geotextile designer, the ultimate decision for a particular application usually takes one of three directions: design by cost and availability, design by specification, or design by function. Extensive literature on design methods for geotextiles has been published in the peer reviewed journal Geotextiles and Geomembranes.

Requirements
Geotextiles are needed for specific requirements, just as anything else in the world. Some of these requirements consist of polymers composed of a minimum of 85% by weight poly-propylene, polyesters, polyamides, polyolefins, and polyethylene.

Moods of Marvin Gaye

Moods of Marvin Gaye is the seventh studio album by Marvin Gaye, released on the Tamla label in 1966.

The album was the result of a plan to establish Gaye as a strong album-oriented artist as well as a hit maker. Gaye was still uncomfortable with performing strictly R&B and had begun work on a standards album around this time after meeting musician Bobby Scott. However, the sessions were unsuccessful and he would successfully complete a standards album only in his later years (released posthumously as Vulnerable in 1997). For the time being, Gaye was winning more fans and had become a crossover teen idol. Six songs from Moods of Marvin Gaye were released as singles: impressively, all reached the Top 40 on the R&B singles chart and four of them reached the Top 40 on the Pop Singles Chart, a rare feat for a solo R&B artist even at that time.

Gaye also scored his first two #1 R&B singles, "I'll Be Doggone" and "Ain't That Peculiar", both co-written by Gaye's friend, Berry Gordy's right-hand man Smokey Robinson.

Personnel

 * Marvin Gaye - lead vocals
 * The Andantes - backing vocals (all of side 1; side 2, tracks 8-10)
 * The Miracles - additional backing vocals (on "I'll Be Doggone")
 * The Spinners - backing vocals (on "Hey Diddle Diddle")
 * Marv Tarplin - guitar (side 1, tracks 1, 3, 5 and 6)
 * The Funk Brothers - instrumentation

Talk:Silligum Diaboli

The song is actually called SIGILLUM DIABOLI, not what this page is titled. Also, it was NOT on 666 WAYS TO LOVE, as the song on there and the demo is called STIGMATA DIABOLI, which is largely different to SIGILLUM. Finally, it is not called 666 WAYS TO LOVE: PROLOGUE TO TRAGEDY. It's just called "666 Ways To Love: Prologue". I would edit the main page myself, but with the title as "Silligum" and not the correct version, it loses consistency.

Here's the right information though:

Stigmata Diaboli was on the Demo Tape. Stigmata Diaboli was on "666 Ways To Love: Prologue" AND also on a rare German 10-track version of "Greatest Love Songs Vol.666".

Sigillum Diaboli, however, was on the Limited Editions, US and German versions of "Razorblade Romance".

If it's "Silligum", it makes no sense because "Stigmata" and "Sigillum" are all to do with the Devil.

Can someone please change all this?

Eddie Carroll

Eddie Carroll (September 5, 1933 – April 6, 2010) was a Canadian actor, who is best known as the third performer to provide the voice for Jiminy Cricket, a role he played for over 35 years.

Career
In Canada, Carroll studied at the Orion theater with fellow student Robert Goulet. After moving to Hollywood in 1956 to work for NBC as a writer and producer, living as a resident alien in the United States, he was drafted into the US Army. He performed with the Armed Forces Radio Service and the 6th Army Chorus. In 1959, he took the professional name Eddie Carroll. In 1960 Carroll released a comedy album, "On Fraternity Row." In 1962, he co-wrote the song "How Is Julie?" which was recorded by The Lettermen. Starting in the early 1960s, Carroll appeared in numerous television programs and commercials. In 1970, he and business partner Jamie Farr developed and syndicated a sports-talk program, "Man to Man", through MGM Television, and not long after a Saturday morning animated series for Hanna-Barbera, The Amazing Chan and the Chan Clan.

Carroll took over the role of Jiminy Cricket for Walt Disney Productions in 1973 after the death of original voice actor Cliff Edwards in 1971, and a brief stint by Clarence Nash. From 1983 until his death in 2010, he traveled with two one-man shows portraying comedian Jack Benny: "A Small Eternity with Jack Benny" and "Jack Benny: Laughter in Bloom." From 1995 to 1996, Carroll toured with a production of The Odd Couple. In later years, he attended numerous conventions and gatherings for both Disney fans and devotees of old-time radio.

Eddie Carroll was sometimes billed as Eddy Carroll. He is not to be confused with British big band musician Eddie Carroll.

Personal life and death
Carroll married his wife Carolyn Springer on April 7, 1963; together they had two children, Tina and Leland.

On April 6, 2010, Carroll died from a brain tumor at the Motion Picture & Television Country House and Hospital in Woodland Hills, California, at the age of 76, just one day before his 47th wedding anniversary.

Never, Neverland

Never, Neverland is the second album by heavy metal band Annihilator. It was released on September 12, 1990, under the label Roadrunner. The album was re-released twice: in 1998 with three demo tracks as bonus tracks and again on September 9, 2003, in a two-disc compilation set along with Alice in Hell, entitled Alice in Hell/Never Neverland (as part of Roadrunner Records Two from the Vault series).

Reception
Nick Griffiths of Select gave the album a two-out-of-five rating, and described it as a "patchwork of half-fulfilled promises, it threatens more than it delivers." He noted that "only when the lead axe spits caterwauling speedplay and the thrash rhythm do Annihilator finally wash their true colours in public" and that "elsewhere there's a tendency to steer into formularised ruts, escaping occasionally like on the ghoulish riffs of 'Sixes and Sevens'."

Alex Henderson of AllMusic gave the album 4.5 stars out of 5, calling it "one of 1990's strongest metal releases".

Claud Severn

Sir Claud Severn (Chinese Translated Name: 施勳) (1869–1933) was a British colonial administrator. Severn joined the colonial civil service in British Malaya in 1894 and worked under the Governor of the Straits Settlements. In 1912, he became Colonial Secretary of Hong Kong and remained in the post until 1925. During this period, Severn governed Hong Kong twice as acting administrator during transition periods between Governors.

Early life
Sir Claud Severn was born on 9 September 1869 in Adelaide, South Australia, to Walter Severn (1830－1904) (at one time British Consul in Rome ) and Mary Dalrymple Fergusson (1845-1916). His mother was the daughter of Sir Charles Dalrymple Fergusson, 5th Baronet.

Severn went to St Peter's College, Adelaide and studied Latin and chemistry at the University of Adelaide. He later graduated from Selwyn College, Cambridge with a BA in 1890 and MA in 1913.

Colonial service
Having joined the Foreign Service in 1891 as a temporary library clerk, Severn was appointed, in 1894, private secretary to Sir Charles B H Mitchell, then Governor of the Straits Settlements. After a period of 17 years in the colonial administration of the Federated Malay States including four years as private secretary to Governor Sir John Anderson, he was appointed Colonial Secretary in Hong Kong, leading the administration under Governor Sir Frederick Lugard. He was acting governor of Hong Kong for just over a year during a transition between governors from 1918 to 1919. It was 1918 when he entertained the visiting George Morrison, the highly influential Political Advisor to the President of the Chinese Republic, who related that the appointment of the "Buffoon of Hong Kong" was "one of the jokes of our time".

In 1920, at 50, he married Margaret Annie Bullock, the daughter of Thomas Lowndes Bullock who from 1899 was Professor of Chinese at the University of Oxford, and they had two sons and a daughter.

Both Severn and Governor Sir Reginald Stubbs retired in 1925, victims of the general strike which all but destroyed Hong Kong that year and for which they were criticised by James Jamieson, British Consul General in Canton. Jamieson saw them as out of touch and out of date, unable to converse in Chinese and ignorant of republican China.

Later life
After his service in Hong Kong, Severn departed for Britain and died at the Old Rectory, Ewelme, near Oxford, on 8 April 1933.

Memory
Severn Road, which is located on Mount Gough in Hong Kong, was named after him.

Violin Concerto No. 2 (Wieniawski)

Violin Concerto No. 2 in D minor, Op. 22, by the Polish violin virtuoso, Henryk Wieniawski, may have been started in 1856, but the first performance did not take place until November 27, 1862, when he played it in St. Petersburg with Anton Rubinstein conducting. It was published in 1879, inscribed to his dear friend Pablo de Sarasate.

Written during the relatively stable period of Wieniawski's residence in St Petersburg, the second Violin Concerto in D minor, op.22 is generally considered as his finest work. Richly melodic and highly idiomatic the work balances the elements of style dispassionately and serenely. Wieniawski first played the work in St Petersburg on 27 November 1862 under the baton of Anton Rubinstein.

The second violin concerto remains one of the most popular violin concertos of the Romantic era, memorable for its lush and moving melodies and harmonies.

Structure
The work is in three movements: 1. Allegro moderato in D minor/F major
 * Both main elements of the first movement, its sombre, restless first subject, and its lyrical pendant (begun by a solo horn) are discussed freely and subject to dazzling embellishments by the solo violin. This movement includes a demanding variety of technique, including upbow staccato, chromatic glissandi, double stops, arpeggios, sixths, octaves, thirds, chromatic scales, and artificial harmonics, not to mention a myriad of bowing techniques. The beat is based on a 4/4 or common time. The first movement uses a half-sonata form where the orchestral coda after the exposition transitions into the second movement instead of a development section.

2. Romance: Andante non troppo in B-flat major
 * The slow movement, a Romance, follows without a break. It is based on a lilting tune in 12/8 time and rises to an impassioned central climax.
 * Orchesterwerke Romantik Themen.pdf

3. Allegro con fuoco – Allegro moderato (à la Zingara) in D minor/D major
 * A rhapsodic passage marked Allegro con fuoco and mainly a solo cadenza, leads to the finale, a dashing rondo in the Gypsy style, which quotes the first movement's subsidiary theme in the course of its second and third episodes. The final movement implements a 2/4 time, which allows the violinists to emphasize certain notes in the beginning of some measures.
 * Orchesterwerke Romantik Themen.pdf

Instrumentation
The concerto is scored for solo violin and an orchestra consisting of 2 flutes, 2 oboes, 2 clarinets, 2 bassoons, 2 horns, 2 trumpets, 3 trombones (alto, tenor and bass), timpani, and strings.

Edward Higham

Edward Henry Higham (26 July 1846 – 20 April 1885) was a Member of the Western Australian Legislative Council from 1880 to 1884.

Life
The son of a baker, Edward Higham was born in Brackley, Northamptonshire, England (one source says Oxfordshire ) on 26 July 1846. In 1853 his family emigrated to Western Australia, settling in Fremantle and opening a bakery and confectionery shop. After the death of his father, Higham left school in 1859 to help his mother, Mary Higham run the shop. By 1870 his mother had created a second business – M. Higham and Sons, selling clothing and furnishing – and Edward became a partner in the firm.

From 1870 on, Higham became increasingly involved in public life. In 1871 he became the chairman of the Fremantle Roads Board at a meeting at his mother's house. This committee was to become important in time and is seen today as the start of the City of Cockburn. From 1872 to 1876 he served on the Fremantle Town Council, and in 1873 he became a founding member of the Fremantle Chamber of Commerce. He was chairman of the Fremantle Building Society for ten years from 1875, and a member of the Fremantle Board of Education in 1876. From 1878 until 1882, Higham against served on the Fremantle Town Council, becoming its chairman in 1883. On 10 February 1880, Edward Higham became a Member of the Western Australian Legislative Council, holding the seat of Fremantle until 21 October 1884.

In April 1880, Higham married Alice Glyde, daughter of George Glyde and later wife of William Pearse. They had three sons and a daughter. Higham died at Fremantle on 20 April 1885. Edward Higham is distantly related to the British actor and explorer Tim Higham, also known as Tim FitzHigham FRSA, FRGS.

Dan Empfield

Dan Empfield (born 1957) is an American entrepreneur in the world of multisport, creator of the triathlon wetsuit in 1987, and the triathlon-specific racing bike in 1989. The original designs were manufactured by the Quintana Roo, which he founded in 1987.

Empfield sold Quintana Roo in 1995 to Saucony and managed that company's bicycle division until June 1999. He left to start the popular on-line triathlon news and commentary web site Slowtwitch.com, which he owned and managed from 1999 to 2022.

His FIST-based protocol of road and triathlon bicycle fitting was the first among today's dynamic bike fit protocols, and he coined the bicycle geometry terms "stack" and "reach" - corresponding, respectively, to the vertical and horizontal distance between the bottom bracket center and head-tube top; these terms helped normalize bike geometries across manufacturers.

Today, Empfield remains an editor-at-large at slowtwitch.com.

Empfield has been inducted into the Triathlete Magazine Hall of Fame (2004) and the USA Triathlon Hall of Fame (2014), has received the World Open Water Swimming Association's (WOWSA) lifetime achievement award (2010), and was named by Inside Triathlon as one of the ten most influential people in United States triathlon for 2012 and 2013. He received Interbike’s Triathlon Industry Leader of the Year award in 2014. He is a former board member of USA Triathlon.

Heiðar Helguson

Heiðar Helguson (born 22 August 1977) is an Icelandic former professional footballer who played as a striker.

Heiðar started his career in the Icelandic league system, with UMFS Dalvík and Þróttur. Following a one-season spell in Norway with Lillestrøm SK, Heiðar moved to England to play for Watford in 1999, with Lillestrøm receiving a transfer fee of £1.5 million. The English media anglicised his name to Heidar when he joined Watford – it is by this given name that he is commonly known in England.

Although Watford were relegated from the Premier League during his first season at the club, Heiðar was a prolific goalscorer, finishing as the team's top scorer in the 1999–2000, 2002–03 and 2004–05 seasons, before being sold to Fulham in 2005. He played Premier League for them between 2005 and 2007, and Bolton until 2009, before transferring to Championship side QPR in 2009. After a return to Watford on loan in the 2009–10 season, Heiðar played regularly for QPR in 2010–11, as they secured promotion to the Premier League as champions. In QPR's first Premier League season since 1995–96, Heiðar finished as the team's top scorer, helping them to secure Premier League survival on the last day of the 2011–12 season. He subsequently joined Cardiff City.

Heiðar played and scored for his country at under-19 and under-21 levels, before making his debut for the senior team in 1999. He earned 55 caps for Iceland, scoring 13 goals, before retiring from international football in 2011.

Early career
Heiðar was born in Akureyri, in northern Iceland. He joined his first club, UMFS Dalvík, at the age of eight in 1985. He spent a further eight years in the club's development squads, progressing through the different youth team age brackets (Under-10s, Under-12s, Under-15s, etc.) and debuting for the club's reserves whilst he was still only 13. He was handed his first team debut in 1993 when he was 15 years old. He scored five goals in 11 league appearances before his performances earned him a transfer to Þróttur in 1994, aged 16.

In three seasons, Heiðar scored 31 goals in 54 league appearances for Þróttur, his performances generating interest from several European clubs.

Lillestrøm
Heiðar arrived at Lillestrøm in the autumn of 1998. He made his first team debut in October, curiously wearing number 1 on his shirt. The next season Heiðar became one of the great surprises in Norwegian football when he scored sixteen league goals. In his debut season for Lillestrøm, he had managed only two goals. Heiðar was a very popular player, and even had his own fan-club named "The Helgusonsons".

Watford

Heiðar was signed by Watford manager Graham Taylor midway through the 1999–2000 season for a club record £1.5m. Brought in to boost the struggling club's striking department, Heiðar had a good debut at home to Liverpool, where he played well. Heiðar scored in his first game. He later picked up the display of the season award for this goal-scoring debut. He scored five more times that season. His goals were not enough to keep Watford up, and the Hertfordshire club were relegated after only one year in the Premier League.

Back in the First Division, Heiðar was part of a Watford team that was undefeated for the first 15 games of the season, topping the league. However, when the team's form slumped in late 2000, Heiðar suffered a crisis of confidence – one of several during his first few years at Watford – and was well below his best for a large amount of that campaign. At the end of the season Taylor retired and was replaced by Gianluca Vialli, who used Heiðar as a wing back.

With Ray Lewington in charge for the 2002–03 season, Heiðar showed a marked improvement. Although still prone to injury (he did not start the season until late September), he finished the season Watford's top goal scorer with 13, including goals in Watford's run to the FA Cup semi-Finals. In 2003–04 injury kept Heiðar out of most of the first half of the season. On his return he put in some notable performances, the most notable being his leading of the line against Chelsea in the FA Cup.

2004–05 was Heiðar's best season in a Watford shirt. Relatively free of injury, he scored 20 goals and picked up the "Goal of the Season," "Display of the Season" and "Player of the Season" awards at the end of season awards ceremony. Inevitably, his goal tally brought about interest from Premier League clubs and with Watford needing money, the offer from Fulham was accepted.

Fulham
Heiðar signed for Fulham on 27 June 2005 and was largely confined to the bench at the beginning of the campaign. He scored his first goal for Fulham in the 5–4 League Cup victory over Lincoln. The front pair of Heiðar and Brian McBride caused trouble to the best defences in the Premier League. Heiðar scored against Chelsea (penalty), Aston Villa (penalty), West Ham (open play – left foot) and Manchester United (open play – header), a double in a 6–1 win over West Brom, Bolton Wanderers (header as a result of a free kick) and against Middlesbrough (penalty). For the start of the 2006–07 season he was moved from No. 10 to No. 9 at Fulham.

Bolton Wanderers
On 20 July 2007 it was announced that Heiðar was leaving Fulham to join Bolton Wanderers for an undisclosed fee, as part of manager Sammy Lee's squad restructuring. Heiðar reportedly signed a three-year contract with the Trotters, having been forced to consider his options following the signings of David Healy and Diomansy Kamara.

He made his Bolton debut as a substitute for the injured Kevin Davies on 11 August 2007 with Wanderers already trailing to Newcastle United. Four days later he returned to Fulham for the first time since leaving and got on the scoresheet in a 2–1 Bolton defeat.

It was the end of January 2008 by the time Heiðar got any more playing time, but his return was welcome with Bolton desperately short of firepower having sold Nicolas Anelka to Chelsea earlier on that month. His first appearance back in the team was a goalless draw against old club Fulham where he came off the substitutes bench for the last eight minutes of the game. He scored his first goal for Bolton since coming back from injury four days later against Reading in a 2–0 win.

Bolton confirmed in May 2008 that they had sent Heiðar over to Belgium for more surgery in order to have him back for pre-season training.

Queens Park Rangers

On 20 November, it was announced that Heiðar had joined Queens Park Rangers on an emergency loan until the end of January 2009. However, the loan did not go through until the following Friday.

After failing to score on his debut against Wolverhampton Wanderers and in his second match against Sheffield Wednesday, Heiðar scored once against Plymouth Argyle and braces against both Preston North End and Blackpool to bag himself five goals in his first ten games. On 2 January, the deal was made permanent for an undisclosed fee.

After spending a nearly a season out on loan to Watford, Heiðar returned to QPR. After regaining his place in the starting XI, scoring 13 goals as Rangers won the Championship in the 2010–11 season including a late winner against London rivals Crystal Palace at Loftus Road. Heiðar featured regularly under Neil Warnock for QPR in the Premier League, Heiðar became a Rangers legend by scoring the winning goal from a penalty in a 1–0 victory against arch rivals Chelsea. This was QPR's first win over Chelsea in over 15 years. He then went on to score two goals against Stoke in a 3–2 victory away from home. He headed in a sublime goal, whilst the other goal was a tap in.

On 3 December 2011, he managed to equal the Queens Park Rangers record for most goals at home in a row. He scored with a header in a 1–1 draw with West Bromwich Albion.

Despite missing most of the second half of the season with a groin injury, Heiðar finished as QPR's top goalscorer for the 2011–12 season with nine goals in all competitions. These goals proved crucial as Rangers avoided relegation on the final day of the season despite a 3–2 defeat away to Champions Manchester City.

Return to Watford
On 15 September 2009, Watford successfully acquired the services of Heiðar, on a three-month loan from Queens Park Rangers, meaning the player returned to the club who he played for between 2000 and 2005. He made an immediate impact on his return, assisting one and scoring a brace during his substitute appearance against Leicester City, before being substituted due to injury. He made his fourth appearance of his loan spell at Vicarage Road against Scunthorpe United, scoring his fourth and fifth goal. Whilst the original loan spell ended on 28 December, there was constant speculation about the player resigning for the club on loan. On 11 January, both clubs confirmed that the loan deal was to be extended until the end of the season.

Cardiff City
On 2 August 2012, Heiðar signed for Cardiff City on a one-year deal for an undisclosed fee and was given the number 22 shirt. Heiðar scored his first goal for Cardiff in a pre-season friendly against Bournemouth and his second came from the spot against Northampton Town in the League Cup on 14 August. He scored his first league goal in a Cardiff shirt in the Severnside derby on 25 August in a 4–2 loss. He then went on to score a brace against Ipswich Town, which kept Cardiff top of the table. Heiðar collected further goals for City at both Nottingham Forest and Charlton Athletic and at home against Hull City. Despite helping Cardiff secure promotion to the Premier League, Heiðar left the club when his contract expired at the end of the season.

Skautafélag Reykjavíkur
In May 2015, Heiðar signed with Skautafélag Reykjavíkur. He appeared in two games for SR, netting one goal.

International career
Heiðar made his debut for Iceland in an April 1999 friendly match against Malta, coming on as a substitute for Ríkharður Daðason, and as of October 2010 has earned 52 caps, scoring 12 goals. He was top scorer in the 2004 FA Summer Tournament with 3 goals. After playing in a friendly against Spain in August 2006, a long spell outside the national team followed during which Heiðar announced his retirement from international football, in June 2007.

On 28 August 2008, Heiðar announced his return to international football and was immediately selected in the Icelandic team to face Norway and Scotland a few days later. He scored a goal against Norway in the world cup qualifier as the match ended 2–2.

Dunrobin, Ontario

Dunrobin is a community in West Carleton-March Ward in the City of Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. It is located about 35 kilometres northwest of Downtown Ottawa. Dunrobin lies within a valley, nestled between the Ottawa River and the Carp escarpment, and is located at 45.18° latitude and 75.55° longitude. Dunrobin is located on the former boundary between West Carleton Township and Kanata (formerly March Township). Dunrobin was amalgamated with the city of Ottawa in 2000. Dunrobin is expanding steadily with a current population of about 1,000 people.

The Dunrobin Community Association defines the community boundaries as Murphy Sideroad, Constance Lake Road and Berry Sideroad on the south, the Ottawa River to the east, a line following Limestone Road to Kinburn Sideroad to Stonecrest Road to Thomas A. Dolan Parkway to Marchhurst Road on the west, and on the north by a line following Kilmaurs Sideroad to Woodkilton Road to Kinburn Sideroad to Constance Creek.

Dunrobin was settled in the 19th century at the corner of Dunrobin Road and Thomas A. Dolan Parkway. The town centre comprises a community centre with outdoor recreation facilities and a number of small businesses. While originally started as an agricultural community it now serves mostly as a focal point within a larger community that has a mixed population of farmers, commuters who work in Kanata and Ottawa-Gatineau, cottagers and pensioners. Some nearby points of interest include Fitzroy Provincial Park, Constance Bay and the Diefenbunker museum.

Dunrobin took its name from Dunrobin Castle near Golspie, Scotland.

On September 21, 2018, a high-end EF3 tornado struck the community, damaging or destroying 60 buildings and seriously injuring three people.

CBN (AM)

CBN (640 kHz) is a public AM radio station in St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. It carries a news, talk and information format and is the local Radio One station of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation.

CBN transmits 10,000 watts, and is a Class A station broadcasting on a clear-channel frequency, shared with KFI in Los Angeles, the dominant station on 640 AM. CBN uses a non-directional antenna located off Thorburn Road near Exit 44 of the Outer Ring Road on the Trans-Canada Highway. With its non-directional signal and low dial frequency, CBN can be heard by day around most of Southeastern Newfoundland. At night, it can be picked up across much of the eastern half of North America with a good radio, but is strongest in Atlantic Canada and Eastern Quebec.

CBN programming is also heard in St. John's on CBN-1-FM on 88.5 MHz. For listeners who have trouble picking up CBN 640's signal clearly in the downtown area, this "nested rebroadcaster" provides an alternative. CBN-1-FM has an effective radiated power (ERP) of 3,162 watts. This station is not to be confused with CBN-FM on 106.9 MHz, which carries the CBC Music network, or its rebroadcaster CBN-FM-1 on 90.7 MHz in Grand Falls-Windsor.

History
The station began broadcasting at 8 p.m. on November 14, 1932 as VONF (Voice Of NewFoundland), broadcasting on 1195 kHz, and was owned and operated by the Dominion Broadcasting Company, a subsidiary of the Avalon Telephone Company (a predecessor of Bell Aliant). In 1934, it merged with a former competitor, VOGY 840, which had also launched in 1932. The VONF call sign was retained.

On March 13, 1939, the Dominion Broadcasting Company was absorbed by the Broadcasting Corporation of Newfoundland, the pre-Confederation public broadcaster, as its first radio station. The frequency was eventually changed to its current 640 AM.

BCN was absorbed by the CBC on March 31, 1949 when Newfoundland joined Canada. The call sign was then changed to CBN.

CBN used to operate 10,000-watt rebroadcaster CBNM in Marystown on 740 AM (previously 570), but this station was converted to 90.3 FM in the 1980s.

CBN is currently the largest Radio One station in eastern Canada that is still located on the AM band, along with CBY in Corner Brook, which also operates at 10,000 watts and has clear channel designation.

Until April 27, 2007, CBN's operations were located on 342 Duckworth Street. Those operations are currently located on 95 University Avenue, where the television operations are also based.

Local programming
The station's local shows include The St. John's Morning Show, The Signal with Adam Walsh, On The Go with Krissy Holmes, The Broadcast with Paula Gale, and Weekend AM with Heather Barrett.

The province's other five Radio One stations (CBG Gander, CBT-FM Grand Falls-Windsor, CBY Corner Brook, CFGB-FM Happy Valley-Goose Bay and CBDQ-FM Labrador City) simulcast most of CBN's local programming during Radio One's local programming blocks. However, some of these Newfoundland and Labrador CBC stations have their own morning show or share one with another station.

One of VONF's most popular shows in the 1930s and 1940s was The Barrelman, hosted by future Premier Joey Smallwood.

Shortwave relay
Beginning in 1939, VONF operated a shortwave relay for remote areas of Newfoundland using the call sign VONG and operating on a frequency of 9.47 MHz (later 9.48, both in the 31-meter band). A second frequency of 5.98 MHz (later 5.97, both in the 49-meter band) was launched using the call sign VONH.

Eventually, VONG left the air and only VONH remained. The call sign changed to CBNX in 1949 when the AM station became CBN. The frequency was changed to 6.16 MHz in 1963. In 1965, the call sign was changed to CKZN, recognizing that, technically, the CB call sign prefix was assigned to Chile on an international basis.

In 1989, the shortwave relay began to rebroadcast CFGB-FM in Happy Valley-Goose Bay, part-time as well as CBN. Eventually, in 1994, the station no longer relayed CBN, and became a full-time rebroadcaster of CFGB-FM. Most of Newfoundland had reliable AM or FM reception by that time, so the relay's main use was now limited to the remote areas of Labrador.

Rebroadcasters
CBN has the following rebroadcasters:

CBND was used by a former low-power AM rebroadcasting transmitter in Flower's Cove, which had operated at 790 kHz in 1972 to rebroadcast the programming of CBN. In 1968, CBND was approved to move from 600 to 920 kHz according to the Canadian Communications Foundation's CBN website. Its unknown when CBND signed on and when it left the air, however, there's a CBND-FM currently operating at 105.1 MHz in Postville which rebroadcasts CFGB-FM Happy Valley-Goose Bay.

CIBB-FM rebroadcasts programming of CBN, although it is owned by the Burgeo Broadcasting System.

In March 2016, The CBC made the decision to put a nested rebroadcaster in St. John's. It would broadcast at 88.5 MHz with an ERP of 3,612 Watts. On July 5 of the same year, the station went on-air for testing. On August 1, 2016, the CRTC approved the decision to put a nested rebroadcaster in St. John's. CBN-1-FM began broadcasting on October 28, 2016.

Talk:Diadematidae

HI - a basic table listing biological taxonomy isn't real useful - could you try to make it more of an article and not jsut a data sheet? I've noticed this comment getting made on some of the other pages you have created as well. Regards Manning 02:14, July 21, 2005 (UTC)

Thank you for your suggestion. Of course that I don't agree with your stattement that a table listing biological taxa is no useful. You can pick informations among several books and all of them have taxonomical lists about the described species.Is a very usefull way to understand the taxonomical position of each species. Realy worst is the fact that one can't have a complete taxa description about a specific group withouth having to read several authors and compare them, for finaly conclude in which direction to go. All I'm presenting is a simple way to have species taxonomy in a simple and comprehensive way. This is complete diferent from Wikipedia Tree of Life and of course can be linked to that project, assuming that you can find in W. Tree of Life no more than a few species.As for the description I assume that W. Tree of Life is the correct place for explain each species. You can also see another list of taxonomical clasifications in Shark taxonomy specialy in Shark taxonomy Order Hexanchiformes and so far I didn't received any indication of no useful lists.If you saw some of that information, please let me know because as I've not seen I would like to answer.Tank you--JPPINTO 00:45, 23 July 2005 (UTC)

Wikipedia talk:Requests for comment/Pastorrussell

First set of comments
I suggest this be taken to the RfC Talk page - Tearlach 21:40, 20 July 2005 (UTC)

I have attempted numerous times to discuss the matter with "Konrad West", but this gentleman refuses to cooperate. As you can see from my posts, I have been kind, generous, and attempted compromise numerous times. Instead of working with me, he has chosen to go on a campaign which is unfortunately misleading users into believing he is extremely neutral and only wishing to do the right thing. In reality when he has made alterations, they have been biased toward JWs and not by any means neutral. If neutrality is what we are attempting to work towards, then let's work together to reach that goal. I'm in favor of it, not opposed to it! It's not going to happen while Konrad is advertising the issue as though this poor little article is being injured by mean little me. It would be inappropriate to attach the name of "Jehovah's Witnesses" to an article about Pastor Russell in the introduction. If it is to be mentioned at all, it should be in a different part of the article. In fact, it is already mentioned in the Death and Aftermath section, which is where it belongs in a documentary article. If you believe the article is unfairly supportive of a Bible Student view, please consider the fact that there is nothing mentioned about Bible Students until the very same location in the article. Why this entire situation has even happened is beyond me. I have bent over backwards trying to work with this man, but he has done great injury to the situation by creating what is, or has been, going to result in an editing war. As a side point, just because a certain statement is made in an other resource does not mean such formulas or words should be used here. Many, if not all, encyclopedia entries were made by Jehovah's Witnesses at the request of the encyclopedia's editor, not knowing that there was another significant group who would disagree with certain claims. In fact, actions such as those have resulted in Bible Students publishing and circulating the booklet "Pastor Russell not the founder of Jehovah's Witnesses". The booklet goes into detail about the 1917-1931 split of 75% of the membership, and the current activities of the organization which go entirely contrary to the life and ministry of Pastor Russell. So, again, I propose that we work together on this article, discuss how certain things should look, and decide together what is acceptable to all, not just Konrad, who wants it to be pro JW (which is proven by his comments and past edits). Thank you for your time. PastorRussell 16:37, 20 July 2005 (UTC)

Konrad West is not the only user who has had issues with the article. So has Tearlach, who has no apparent interest in the Jehovah's Witnesses, and is primarily an unpaid public servant of the Wiki community. So has Robert McClenon, who is not a Protestant. You write: "As you can see from my posts, I have been kind, generous, and attempted compromise numerous times." I agree othat you have been kind. Whether you have been generous is a POV. You have attempted what you consider to be compromise, but Wikipedia has its own standards of compromise. "If you do not want your writing to be edited mercilessly and redistributed at will, do not submit it. "  You have disregarded Wikipedia policy by removing NPOV tags that had been put on the article 5 times in 24 hours, which violates the 3-Revert Rule. You also violated Wikipedia by asserting that Bible Students have control of the article. No user/editor of Wikipedia has control of an article.

You write: "I propose that we work together on this article, discuss how certain things should look, and decide together what is acceptable to all, not just Konrad". I agree, and not just you or Bible Students. In order for the article to be acceptable to all, you will have to work with others, just as others will have to work with you.

You could start by filling in a few vital issues to identify Pastor Russell's importance. The article states that he found that there were major errors in contemporary Protestant doctrine. What did he see as those errors? That is, how did his theology or interpretation of Scripture differ from that of other Protestant ministers of the time? The article states that he had a profound influence on Protestantism. What denominations did he influence? For instance, if he was previously affiliated with the Presbyterian Church and the Congregational Church, did he influence them, or did his influence consist primarily in the formation of new denominations? Can you provide a primary or secondary source for the extent of the sales of his works? Robert McClenon 19:45, 20 July 2005 (UTC)

The users who disagree came in only after Konrad West began his crusade. Prior to that only one disagreement occurred, which was worked out. Then he came in and refused to work with me, and arbitrarily started editing and added an NVOP. The points you raise about Pastor Russell's importance, views on doctrine, etc... were in the original article, but removed because they were considered contrary to neutrality! This working in circles, and not accomplishing anything. I will return those sections in order to satisfy your queries, but someone else will complain it violates neutrality. So, we are now between a rock and a hard place. Nobody is working with each other, we are all tearing each other apart. Wikipedia states that BEFORE adding an NVOP all editing STOP and and discussion begin. That process was violated by Konrad West, and from that point on we have had nothing but trouble. My intent is for this article to be agreeable to all, but that requires sound, and intelligent discussion, including pointing out where the neutrality and POV areas are, and discussing an alternative wording. Then, we can put in our two cents and suggest that it is agreeable, or not, and then propose another wording, etc... etc... That is the way this should work. So far it hasn't gone that way. Let's try to work together. PastorRussell 20:20, 20 July 2005 (UTC)

 * In response, Pastorrussell, when I first visited this page I checked the history and saw that the NPOV dispute tag had been added by some users and then removed by you. In the history of the talk page it is clear that I was not the first user to have concerns about the neutrality. In fact, you had discussions with such users. I earlier listed for your benefit 5 users who had previously said the article wasn't neutral (see Talk:Charles_Taze_Russell) --K. 23:40, 20 July 2005 (UTC)

 * This discussion really ought to be in the Talk page for the RfC.

 * One fundamental: I suggest all material going in, by any editor, has a cited source. I also suggest scrapping the whole article and starting again minus the assumption that the biography on your website is a canonical source about which we can quibble about phraseology - along with an unconditional agreement that the Bible Students don't 'own' or have charge of the article.

 * On the issue of affiliation, you might be interested in the saga of a recent similar dispute about the Philippine church Iglesia ni Cristo (INC), of which I caught the tail-end. The INC were in doctrinal dispute with another church, the Bereans, and the exasperating thing was, if you made any edit that didn't agree with the INC view, suddenly you were accused of being a Berean (even if you obvious hailed from the other side of the world and were ludicrously unlikely to be a member of a Philippine church). In short, assume good faith: many editors are not part of your religious feud.

 * On that basis, I give you two more examples:

 * Russell, Charles Taze, 1852–1916, founder of the movement whose followers are known as Russellites, as Bible Students, and (since 1931) as Jehovah's Witnesses - The Columbia Electronic Encyclopedia, 6th ed.

 * Russell, Charles Taze. U.S. religious leader who founded the International Bible Students Association, the forerunner of the Jehovah's Witnesses - Britannica Concise Encyclopedia. 2005

 * So we have three major mainstream reference sources that view Russell's organisations as precursor to the JWs. This view should be represented up front. Tearlach 21:13, 20 July 2005 (UTC)

All of them written by Jehovah's Witnesses of the Editorial Committee. As a result, they are biased. Please research the matter further and you will see that encyclopedia references are wrong to use here, and do not apply. PastorRussell 19:47, 20 July 2005 (UTC)

 * Encylopedias are generally excellent sources, as they are almost invariably well-researched and written by authorities on their respective subjects. You have many times stated that you have "original documents" which tell a different story about Russell, so it would really be much more productive if you shared them. For anyone to take seriously your suggestions that two respected encyclopedias are wrong you need to provide sources, not just tell people to research further. --K. 06:42, 21 July 2005 (UTC)

In that case, please add language explaining how the Jehovah's Witnesses have misrepresented the teachings of Pastor Russell.

Please do not remove any more NPOV banners. That really does violate Wikipedia policy. There is a consensus, whether for right or for wrong, that the article is not neutral.

The major problem that I see is that you have violated a basic rule on revert wars. There is a consensus that the article is not neutral. You think that it is. The rest of us, including non-Protestants, think that it is. It does not matter to me whether Russell was a heretic. I think that he was, and he had the right to be a heretic under the First Amendment. I think that the Jehovah's Witnesses are heretics, and they have that right under the First Amendment. There is dispute as to the teachings of Pastor Russell.

DO NOT remove the NPOV banner again.

We are trying to discuss the issue with you. You need to discuss it with some of us. Robert McClenon 02:29, 21 July 2005 (UTC)

What is a "Pove troll"
Can you provide a definition or link? See: Internet troll and Troll Stirling Newberry 19:57, 23 July 2005 (UTC)
 * So it's a troll whose activity is directed at pushing a POV? Tearlach 20:06, 23 July 2005 (UTC)

Yes, because not all POV Warriors are, in fact, trolls. Stirling Newberry 22:17, 23 July 2005 (UTC)

A difficult issue
A distinterested observer, completely. I'm basically ignorant about the article's subject, JW, and other aspects of this dispute. That said, I'm becoming a dedicated Wikipedian, and what I see here troubles me. Here are some comments.
 * No one who is a partisan should edit an article from an advocacy point of view.
 * Wikipedians take a dim view of statements that mainstream encyclopedias or other factual sources are unqualified to be cited because the persons who prepared them are known advocates for a hostile POV.
 * NPOV tags should NEVER be removed without broad consensus.
 * I agree. This has happened often enough that I think it should become a policy. Robert McClenon 11:12, 1 August 2005 (UTC)

 * An encyclopedia article about a man you admire or revere is bound to be disappointing to you in some small or even large way. As much as I wish not to discourage anyone from participating, if you are such a devotee of a particular religion or movement, and you are constantly battling other editors because you don't want them to touch an article based on your own private sources, you should probably heave a sigh, leave Wikipedia, devote your energies to producing advocacy web pages.
 * A dispute about which group is the true descendant of a founder of a movement occurs with almost all such movements; see Ayn Rand and Objectivism for one example. While it's important to use NPOV language when discussing opposing groups, you can't expect to remove discussion of how a certain group is related to the original founder's group or movement. Even if the founder says explicitly, "that group is not to be considered descended from my movement" the group may in fact claim it. Sometimes two such groups spend a lot of energy discrediting each other. Wikipedia articles don't award "true follower" status to just one group when the other also has valid claims.
 * Finally, I think the article is just too long. It should be a biographical sketch, not the definitive discussion of every relevant idea. Maybe compromise could be easier by the removal of entire sections.

Good luck to all. DavidH 06:24, August 1, 2005 (UTC)

Bor, South Sudan

Bor is a historic city in the Bor region of Jonglei State, located in the central region of South Sudan. It has also served as the headquarters of Jonglei state. The city is situated on the east side of the White Nile (Bahr al Jabal River) at the southern extent of the sudd, South Sudan's vast central wetlands.

History
Bor is located on the eastern bank of White Nile River, a site where an ivory trading depot was established in the 1860s. It grew into a regional hub of the ivory trade during the late nineteenth century. In 1874, Charles George Gordon established a government station there under the Turkiyah Government. In the early years of the Anglo-Egyptian Sudan, Bor was a "wooding station" for steamers travelling along the White Nile (Bahr al Jabal River). In 1905, Bor was established as the headquarters of the Bor District.

Bor became an administrative centre under the Anglo-Egyptian Sudan (1899–1956) for the Dinka Bor people. Bor is the epicenter of the Second Sudanese Civil War. 105 Battalion led by Alier Nhialmangardit staged a revolt against the oppressive Khartoum government in Malual-Chaat a garrison in Town of Bor, in May 1983, leading to the birth of the Sudan People's Liberation Movement and Sudan People's Liberation Army (SPLM/SPLA). Bor was also the scene of the 1991 Bor massacre, where thousands of civilians were killed by Riek Machar’s army of loyal tribesmen. Eventually South Sudan became independent on 9 July 2011 following 22 years of liberation struggle.

Bor is of historical importance to the people of South Sudan. It was in Malek, a small settlement about 19 km south of Bor, that one of the first modern Christian missions in present-day South Sudan was established by Archibald Shaw in 1906. Bor became the first area to host a Church Missionary Society station in 1906.

Malek was turned into a missionary stronghold in the Upper Nile Region. Shaw opened the first primary school in Malek. This school produced the first indigenous Anglican bishop to be consecrated in Dinkaland, Rt. Rev. Daniel Deng Atong, followed the Nikonora Achiek Deng Ariir. Daniel Deng Atong became the first to be baptized in Bor.

Bor was an epicenter of the start of the Second Sudanese Civil War. In Malual-Chaat barrack, statues of liberators and destroyed weapons are conserved and exhibited at historical heritage site.

Following the 2013 South Sudanese coup d'état attempt, Bor was contested in several weeks of combat between the national army and rebels led by Riek Machar due to its influential status on national affairs. A portion of the Nuer White Army joined the fighting as well.

In 2016, Bor was designated as the seat of Bor Municipality. The same order sub-divided the former Bor County into five smaller counties, each containing a single payam. These new counties were Bor South County (Kolnyang payam), Bor East County (Anyidi Payam), Bor Central county (Makuach Payam), Bor West County (Baidit Payam), and Bor North County (Jalle Payam).

Geography
Bor is the second most developed city, in central South Sudan, approximately 190 km, by road, north of Juba, the capital and largest city in the country. The town is located on the east bank of the White Nile.

Climate
Köppen-Geiger climate classification system classifies its climate as tropical wet and dry (Aw).

Climate Change In Bor
“The effects of climate change in South Sudan have led to unusually intense rains: flood waters have forced people from their homes, leaving them without sufficient food and water,” says Caroline Sekyewa, IRC country director in South Sudan.Apr 10, 2023

Population
The 2024 population of Bor is estimated by the United Nations agency’s Statistics to be 727,583.

Economy
The economy depends on agricultural products, fishing, livestock and foreign investments in different sectors. Bor has the highest number of livestock (cattle, goats and sheep) in the country. Bor is the second largest economy in the country, with Juba being the first as it is the centre of businesses and government. Prior to 2013 civil war, Bor was the fastest growing city in the country. Kenyan Commercial Bank(KCB) still maintains it’s branch.

Education
Bor city has one the best primary and secondary schools in the country. Both in primary and secondary national examinations, students and schools from Bor rank among the highest nationally. The John Garang Memorial University of Science and Technology, one of the leading public universities in the country, is located in Bor. The university is named after John Garang de Mabior a former leader of Sudan People Liberation Army/Movement(SPLA). Garang was a guerrilla leader fighting in Southern Sudan against Khartoum governments for what he termed as “New Sudan” under the SPLA/M umbrella. The Comprehensive Peace Agreement in 2005 was signed under his leadership, an event which paved way for the independence of South Sudan in July 2011 when Southern Sudan voted for separation from the North during the referendum.

Cathedral
Bor is also the seat of Bor Diocese in the Episcopal Church of Sudan.

Transportation
Bor is also served by Bor Airport, in addition to river traffic on the White Nile and three major roads that lead out of town.

ARC collaborated with the government to build a multi-million dollar highway from Juba to Bor, Making Bor the only city connected to national capital with a paved road. It's believed to be the longest dual carriage highway in the central and Eastern Africa.

Thomas Southorn

Sir Wilfrid Thomas Southorn (4 August 1879 – 15 March 1957) (Chinese Translated Name: 修頓, Old Translated Name:蕭敦), known as Tom, was a British colonial administrator, spending the large part of his career in Ceylon (now Sri Lanka) before serving as Colonial Secretary of Hong Kong, then Governor of The Gambia.

Education
He was educated at Warwick School and Corpus Christi College, Oxford.

Colonial service career
He had joined the Ceylon Civil Service in 1903, and was appointed Additional Assistant Colonial Secretary in 1909, Principal Assistant Colonial Secretary in 1920, and Principal Collector of Customs and Chairman of the Post Commission in 1923.

He was the Colonial Secretary of Hong Kong from 1925 to 1936 and served as Acting Administrator of the colony from February to March 1930 and from May to September 1935, and then in November the same year, at either end of the tenure of Sir William Peel as governor. His official (summer) residence was Mountain Lodge.

In 1936, he was made Governor of the Gambia, notably describing the colony as "a geographical and economic absurdity". He left The Gambia in March 1942.

Personal life
In 1921 he married author Bella Sidney Woolf (1877–1960), whom he met through her (later) more famous brother Leonard Woolf, when the two men were colleagues in Ceylon. In 1904, then a humble 'Office Assistant', Southorn had met Leonard Woolf on his arrival in Ceylon from England.

Legacy
Southorn Playground in Wan Chai, Hong Kong was named for him in 1934, while he was Colonial Secretary. Also bearing his name are the associated Southorn Stadium and adjacent Southorn Centre.
