Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Longhair

Longhair
final (50/0/0) ending 03:16 August 1, 2005 (UTC)

Longhair has been around since August 31, 2004; he's always around doing something to better the Wiki. I've run across him vandal fighting and welcoming new users; I believe he may be one of the most prolific welcomers around (except Redwolf24, of course). He has 12116 edits across all namespaces. If anyone deserves to be an admin, this is the guy. Essjay -·  Talk 03:34, July 25, 2005 (UTC)

 * Would just like to note, for those who might not follow the link below, that the arbitration case mentioned below was started by Longhair, it was not against Longhair, and the result was to ban the other user, with no sanctions or other condemnation of Longhair. Didn't want anyone to see "arbitration" and think the wrong thing.
 * I see large part of your contributions is adding categories: it is often better to use fewer categories than overcategorise, especially for biographies. Pavel Vozenilek 21:40, 25 July 2005 (UTC)

Questions for the candidate

A few generic questions to provide guidance for voters:
 * 1. What sysop chores, if any, would you anticipate helping with? (Please read the page about administrators and the administrators' reading list.)
 * A. Providing stronger opposition to persistant vandals is something that I've been lacking control of and I'd be happy to be able to assist more there. As I become more aware of the need for assistance with other admin functions I'll gladly help out where needed. -- Longhair | Talk 03:55, 25 July 2005 (UTC)
 * 2. Of your articles or contributions to Wikipedia, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?
 * A. Choosing a favourite article or contribution is like choosing the best child. From the bunch I nominate Robert Trimbole, the Anita Cobby murder and Remand. Whilst those articles still contain some holes, I regard them as being among my personal bests. -- Longhair | Talk 03:55, 25 July 2005 (UTC)
 * 3. Have you been in any conflicts over editing in the past or do you feel other users have caused you stress? How have you dealt with it and how will you deal with it in the future?
 * A. The only conflict that comes to mind is my run-in with Internodeuser, which led to my first and only Arbitration case. Throughout the conflict I remained calm, civil and saw the process through to the end without resorting to immaturity. -- Longhair | Talk 03:55, 25 July 2005 (UTC)

John Hamilton (Ontario politician)

John Hamilton (1802 – 10 October 1882) was a businessman, a political figure in Upper Canada and member of the Senate of Canada.

He was born in Queenston in 1802, the son of Robert Hamilton. He was educated in Queenston and Edinburgh, Scotland and first worked as a clerk in Montreal, Quebec. In 1824, with his stepbrother Robert, he established the Queenston Steamboat Company which operated a number of ships transporting goods on Lake Ontario. In 1831, he was appointed to the Legislative Council of Upper Canada for Queenston and, in 1841, he was re-appointed to its successor, the Legislative Council of the Province of Canada for Canada West. In the 1840s, due to increasing competition, he moved to Kingston, where he operated a business moving goods between Kingston and Montreal. In 1857, after his former competitors had gone bankrupt, he began operating on Lake Ontario again. In 1847, he became president of the Commercial Bank of the Midland District. Although his relationship with the bank was useful to his shipping business, his lack of attention to the bank's business may have contributed to its failure.

He was a co-founder of Queen's College at Kingston, later Queen's University, and became chairman of the board of trustees in 1842.

A Conservative, he was appointed to the Senate on 23 October 1867 by royal proclamation following the Canadian Confederation of 1867. He served in that capacity, representing the province of Ontario and Kingston until his death. He died at Kingston in 1882.

Talk:Breakdown (music)

Cleanup
How is this article confusing? Hyacinth 07:16, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Well, just read the opening sentence... PizzaMargherita 07:46, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

Perhaps this should be two articles: (1) the breakdown as a musical form and (2) the disco break, which is more of an editing technique than a musical feature. Anyhow, the musical form is certainly older; Bill Monroe recorded "Bluegrass Breakdown" in 1948. Grommel (talk) 15:55, 9 January 2014 (UTC)

Yes, I completely agree that the "disco break" section is at odds with the concept of a breakdown, and misleading. I am tempted just to delete the section, or try to spin it off to a new article. Madman (talk) 00:54, 19 August 2016 (UTC)

The Case for "Inverted" Breakdowns in Extreme Metal
In my mind, since the early days of Thrash metal, breakdowns are the relatively slow midsection of a fast song. An obvious case is Slayer's "Angel of Death", which probably has the most infamous breakdown in thrash history. Another obvious example is Metallica's "Master of Puppets".

What I came to realize, in the early 1990s, is that a particular subgenre of metal - Death-doom - inverted the breakdown formula. Bands from these subgenre played songs with very slow verses and choruses and then proceeded to play a relatively fast midsection. Here's a few examples:

 * My Dying Bride's classic "Sear Me" off their first full length, As the Flower Withers. "Sear Me" proceeds in typical ponderous fashion until 2:40. YouTube link:.
 * The opener from Anathema's debut album, Serenades - called "Lovelorn Rhapsody" - starting at 4:06. The YouTube link:.
 * Another Anathema song: the first track from the Pentecost III EP - "Kingdom" - starting at 7:27. Link:.

I'd also like to point out that Cathedral, an immediate predecessor to these bands, also used the inverted breakdown formula. Here's two examples:

 * "Comiserating the Celebration" from Forest of Equilibrium, beggining at 4:52. Link:.
 * "Frozen Rapture" from 1992's Soul Sacrifice EP, beggining at 3:50. Link:.

Fred Small (singer-songwriter)

Frederick Emerson Small (born November 6, 1952), known publicly as Fred Small, is an American singer-songwriter. He began his career as a lawyer and later became a Unitarian Universalist minister.

Small graduated from Yale University and the University of Michigan, from which he earned both a J.D. degree and a master's in environmental policy. His first position was as staff attorney for the Conservation Law Foundation.

His songs often make a political or ethical statement. Among his best-known songs are "Heart of the Appaloosa", "Everything Possible", "Peace Is", and "Cranes Over Hiroshima".

His debut album, Love's Gonna Carry Us (1981), featured Small singing and accompanying himself on guitar. As his fame and success increased, so too did the production level of his albums, as he included more instrumentation, and appearances by other artists, including instrumental and vocal backing by popular New England folk artists. Famous fiddlers, guitarists, and mandolin players alike became a part of Small's discography and helped Small increase his popularity.

After graduating from Harvard Divinity School, he became the minister of First Church Unitarian in Littleton, Massachusetts in 1996. On April 20, 2008, he was called as Senior Minister at First Parish in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Small resigned in September 2015 to devote his energies to climate advocacy. He is currently Minister for Climate Justice at the Arlington Street Church, Boston, and Director of Faith Outreach for Climate XChange, which advocates for carbon pricing legislation in Massachusetts.

Untitled
Moved article back to correct name from hornfel, previous move was in error. Hornfels is the correct and widely used term - it is the singular form (read the article). Vsmith 03:38, 25 July 2005 (UTC)

Non-foliated
Isn't hornfels non-foliated? In the picture it looks like it is foliated... -- Annonymus User 1000 (talk) 10:50, 9 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Hornfels are unlikely to be foliated, but what we're seeing in the image is primary lithological banding - the pale layers were sandstones and the dark layers shales. I've expanded the description of the image - I hope that helps. Mikenorton (talk) 12:16, 9 November 2014 (UTC)

Aggregate planning

Aggregate planning is a marketing activity that does an aggregate plan for the production process, in advance of 3 to 18 months, to give an idea to management as to what quantity of materials and other resources are to be procured and when, so that the total cost of operations of the organization is kept to the minimum over that period.

The quantity of outsourcing, subcontracting of items, overtime of labour, numbers to be hired and fired in each period and the amount of inventory to be held in stock and to be backlogged for each period are decided. All of these activities are done within the framework of the company ethics, policies, and long term commitment to the society, community and the country of operation.

Aggregate planning has certain pre-required inputs which are inevitable. They include:
 * Information about the resources and the facilities available.
 * Demand forecast for the period for which the planning has to be done.
 * Cost of various alternatives and resources. This includes cost of holding inventory, ordering cost, cost of production through various production alternatives like subcontracting, backordering and overtime.
 * Organizational policies regarding the usage of above alternatives.

"Aggregate Planning is concerned with matching supply and demand of output over the medium time range, up to approximately 12 months into the future. The term aggregate implies that the planning is done for a single overall measure of output or, at the most, a few aggregated product categories. The aim of aggregate planning is to set overall output levels in the near to medium future in the face of fluctuating or uncertain demands. Aggregate planning might seek to influence demand as well as supply.

Level plans

 * Use a constant workforce & produce similar quantities each time period
 * Use inventories and back-orders to absorb demand peaks & valleys
 * Use inventories in better way to absorb the peak of demand and valleys

Chase plans

 * Minimize finished good inventories by trying to keep pace with demand fluctuations
 * Matches demand varying either work force level or output rate

Hybrid Strategies

 * Build-up inventory ahead of rising demand and use back-orders to level extreme peaks
 * Layoff or furlough workers during lulls
 * Subcontract production or hire temporary workers to cover short-term peaks
 * Reassign workers to preventive maintenance during lulls

Problems related to Aggregate Planning
Smoothing
 * Smoothing refers to costs that result from changing production and workforce levels from one period to the next.

Bottleneck Problems
 * It is the inability of the system to respond to sudden changes in demand as a result of capacity restrictions.

Planning Horizon
 * The number of periods for which the demand is to be forecasted, and hence the number of periods for which workforce and inventory levels are to be determined, must be specified in advance.

Treatment of Demand Aggregate planning methodology requires the assumption that demand is known with certainty. This is simultaneously a weakness and a strength of the approach.

page needs some work
This page needs some work. Most of the text about the strip and its characters are copied from the comic strip's official website, as are the sketches. As it happens, I have copies of almost all of the books, and I might be able to make some contributions and edits. I'll see what can be done. --JohnDBuell | Talk 03:42, 25 July 2005 (UTC)
 * I noticed that as well and notified User:Dfantom in his talk page; verbatim descriptions could be at least borderline copyvio. He apparently tries to get permission for the sketches. (I do not have any of the books, but I do read the strip regularly). - Skysmith 09:04, 26 July 2005 (UTC)
 * The way things are looking with my schedule for the rest of the week, I don't think I'll be able to really add anything until I get back from a short vacation to visit relatives this coming weekend, so hopefully I can contribute next week, the week of August 1st. --JohnDBuell | Talk 19:55, 26 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Main body of article still needs work, but I've updated the book list with information from my own copies. --JohnDBuell | Talk 15:30, 12 August 2005 (UTC)
 * I've fleshed out some of the background information for the creation of the comic strip. Aside from Rico, I really have no idea where to find good biographical information about the other two co-founders of the comic. Still plenty more work to be done - main characters, recurring characters, and other situations would be a good place to go next. --JohnDBuell | Talk 13:21, 15 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Okay, short of having some more biographical background and some notes about recurring themes/situations (e.g. political satire a la Doonesbury) I think this is looking good. --JohnDBuell | Talk 15:10, 15 August 2005 (UTC)

References and Original Research
This article has no in-text references to verify its claims. Most of this article comes off as conjecture on the part of the author(s). Being able to verify claims would rectify this.

Furthermore sentences like this "Perhaps in the spirit of equality, neither character is portrayed as particularly sympathetic." are an example of both original research and an unverifiable claim. Both of which are inappropriate for an encyclopaedia. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 146.231.129.49 (talk) 11:40, 20 May 2010 (UTC)

I agree. Where do the authors of the strip state that Madam represents white people or that Eve represents black people as the author of this wiki article suggests? It comes of as racist banter on the part of the author of the wiki article, racist in the sense that the author of the wiki article is attributing racialistic characteristics to characters who are not neccessarily always raced. Spirit of equality?? I mean really, is Eve's stand where she sells things for R10 representative of black people? Spirit of equality relates to people, not pseudo-racist symbolism the author of this wiki article is suggesting. But if that author has a problem with this argument, I suggest they find a reference for their claims and I will concede that I am reading too much into this. If however s/he cannot furnish proof, then my argument holds true. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 41.247.228.70 (talk) 12:42, 12 June 2010 (UTC)

name of article
Shouldn't the name of this article be "Madam & Eve" with the & sign? Gryffindor 21:52, 19 April 2006 (UTC)

 * Actually, yes. --JohnDBuell 22:36, 19 April 2006 (UTC)

 * Support Gryffindor  15:10, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Done. — Nightst a  llion  (?) Seen this already? 06:39, 24 April 2006 (UTC)

other characters
This article dosent feature the tokoloshes, the "little aliens" or abigail (ediths twin sister). however, it features the parktown prawns, which arent really characters. The "little aliens" come to earth and have to decide whether the south africans hav developed as a species, if not they will destroy them. The tokoloshes are small creatures from african folklore, they try to take the characters away at night if they dont have bricks under their beds. Im a south african, and I find it easier to under stand (meallies,bakkie,robot.)T.Neo 19:42, 13 September 2007 (UTC)
 * added them Andreas  (T) 19:52, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

Thanks.T.Neo 08:28, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

What about madam's psyciatrist? T.Neo 10:51, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

 * Might be worth including him. Actually he is Gwen Anderson's second psychiatrist. The current one replaced an old white colleague who only appeared in one or two panels in a single strip. Valentinian T / C 15:16, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Not sure if the Millenium Bug is notable or not but I remember it as a somewhat recurring character. Valentinian T / C 15:20, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

I dont remember anything about the millenium bug as being a character, but it was featured in a strip or two. T.Neo 19:17, 7 October 2007 (UTC)

Among the most successful songs that he has co-written in his career are "Do Wah Diddy Diddy", "Da Doo Ron Ron", "Then He Kissed Me", "Be My Baby", "Chapel of Love", and "River Deep - Mountain High" (all written with his then-wife Ellie Greenwich and Phil Spector); "Leader of the Pack" (written with Greenwich and Shadow Morton); "Sugar, Sugar" (written with Andy Kim); "Without Us" (written with Tom Scott), and "I Honestly Love You" (written with Peter Allen).

Early career
Barry was born in Brooklyn to a Jewish family. His parents divorced when he was seven, and his mother moved him and his sister to Plainfield, New Jersey, where they resided for several years before returning to New York.

Chart success

In 1964, Leiber and Stoller brought Barry and Greenwich on board their new label, Red Bird Records, as songwriter-producers. Of Red Bird's first 20 releases, 15 hit the charts; all were written and/or produced by the Barry-Greenwich team, including "Chapel of Love", "People Say", and "Iko Iko" by The Dixie Cups, and "Remember (Walkin' in the Sand)" (co-produced by Artie Ripp) and "Leader of the Pack" by The Shangri-Las.

In late 1966, Barry was asked to produce tracks for the Monkees, a music group put together specifically as the stars of an NBC sitcom, also called The Monkees. Drafted by the show's musical supervisor, Don Kirshner, Barry brought with him a few tunes penned by Neil Diamond for the group to record. One among them, "I'm a Believer", under Barry's production, would sail up the U.S. charts to No. 1 and become one of the biggest-selling records of all time. The group also had a hit with another single composed by Diamond and produced by Barry, "A Little Bit Me, a Little Bit You". After Kirshner's dismissal from Colgems Records, however, Barry would not produce songs for the Monkees again until 1970's Changes, which contained many songs co-written by Barry, and their 1971 single Do It in the Name of Love.

Having been removed from the Monkees project, Kirshner became music supervisor for a new Saturday morning cartoon, The Archie Show, in 1968, and enlisted Barry as producer and main songwriter. During the next three years, Barry composed dozens of songs for the fictional Archies group, including the show's theme, "Everything's Archie", and the "Dance of the Week" (a staple of the show's first season). Barry had also recently founded his own label, Steed Records, and one of his most successful recording artists was Montreal native Andy Kim, who had hits with remakes of Barry's Ronettes tunes "Be My Baby" and "Baby, I Love You". Barry and Kim collaborated on several tunes for The Archies to record, including their best-known single, "Sugar, Sugar", which hit No. 1, became the RIAA Record of the Year for 1969, and earned the group a gold record.

In 1970, Barry wrote and produced singles and albums for Archies lead singer Ron Dante, Bobby Bloom ("Montego Bay"), and Robin McNamara ("Lay a Little Lovin' on Me"), among others. In addition, Barry penned his first music for motion pictures (Hello Down There (1969) and Where It's At) and wrote the music for and produced Tom Eyen's hit off-Broadway revue The Dirtiest Show in Town. In 1975 he produced "Ooh, I'm Satisfied" for the briefly successful mid-'70s pop singer and later session vocalist, Polly Cutter.

Production and film work
In 1971 Barry moved from New York to California, where he had a production and administration deal with A&M Records for several years. Between 1972 and 1975, he produced hit singles for Nino Tempo and April Stevens (together and separately) and the a cappella vocal group the Persuasions. In subsequent years he shifted his focus to television (writing the theme songs for One Day at a Time, The Jeffersons, and Family Ties) and movies (the score for 1980's The Idolmaker), although he continued his work in the pop music field. "I Honestly Love You", written by Barry with Peter Allen, became a 1974 No. 1 for Olivia Newton-John; and, in 1984, Jeffrey Osborne and Joyce Kennedy hit the Top 40 with another Barry composition, "The Last Time I Made Love", written with Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil.

During the 1970s and 1980s Barry also scored numerous hit songs on the country charts, among them "Out of Hand" by Gary Stewart, "Sayin' Hello, Sayin' I Love You, Sayin' Goodbye" by Jim Ed Brown and Helen Cornelius, "Lie to You for Your Love" by The Bellamy Brothers, a remake of "Chip Chip" (originally a 1962 Gene McDaniels pop smash) by Patsy Sledd, and "Walkin' in the Sun" by Glen Campbell.

In 1990, Barry co-produced the theme song for the television series based on Where's Waldo? with media executive Richard Goldsmith. Barry and Goldsmith would collaborate throughout the 90s on a number of projects, including children's albums based on The Babysitter's Club and Clifford the Big Red Dog, songs for the interstitial series Nounou Time, the Spanish language series Mi casita, theme songs for The Slow Norris and Someday School, and would executive produce the 1998 film Jack Frost.

In May 1991, Barry and Greenwich were inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame. In 2004, Rolling Stone's list of the 500 greatest rock songs included six Greenwich-Barry compositions, more than by any other non-performing songwriting team.

During the mid-1990s, Barry served as president of the National Academy of Songwriters, and in December 1998 he was a recipient of their Lifetime Achievement Award. In March 2000, Barry filmed a music special for the PBS television network, Chapel of Love: Jeff Barry and Friends. The show featured performances of Barry tunes by several of the artists who made them famous, including the Dixie Cups, the Crystals, Ronnie Spector, Andy Kim, Ray Peterson, and Ron Dante of the Archies.

In recent years, Barry has been involved in several projects, among them the stage musical "The Girl Who Would Be King", written by the husband-and-wife team of Prudence Fraser and Robert Sternin, best known for their writing and production work on the CBS series The Nanny. The musical had its official world premiere in Vero Beach, Florida.

In 2016, Barry composed songs for the musical theater show "Jambalaya the Musical" along with his production partner, Clarence Jey, a US Billboard and viral record producer. Jeff Barry was involved in part of the music in the Hallmark Channel movie titled "My Christmas Love".

In 2019, Barry and his writing partner Clarence Jey composed and wrote songs for Lego City Adventures, an animated television series, produced by The Lego Group, for Nickelodeon television.

Awards and honors
Barry and Greenwich were among the 2010 recipients of the Ahmet Ertegün Award from the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. As he was unable to attend the ceremony, Steven Van Zandt accepted the award on Barry's behalf. Jeff Barry and Ellie Greenwich were inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 1991.

Telethusa

Telethusa (Ancient Greek: Τελέθουσα) was the Cretan mother of Iphis by Ligdus in Greek mythology.

Mythology
Telethusa was told by her husband Ligdus that if she gave birth to a girl, the child would be put to death. But when the child was about to be born Telethusa had a vision in her dreams in which Isis, in the company of other Egyptian gods (Anubis, Bubastis, Apis, Harpocrates and Osiris), told her not to obey her husband's orders. Doing as the vision said, Telethusa then raised her daughter Iphis as a boy to spare her from Ligdus's wrath. Iphis was later transformed into a man by the Egyptian goddess Isis in order to marry her true love, the maiden Ianthe.

509th Heavy Panzer Battalion

The 509th Heavy Panzer Battalion ("schwere Panzerabteilung 509"; abbreviated: "s PzAbt 509") was a German heavy Panzer Abteilung (an independent battalion-sized unit), equipped with heavy tanks, during the Second World War.

History
The 509th was ordered formed on 9 September 1943, taking most of its personnel from Panzer-Regiment 204 of the disbanded 22nd Panzer Division. The battalion received forty-five Tiger Is. It was committed to action in Ukraine as a part of Army Group South. Reaching the Front in October 1943, the 509th saw action near Kirovograd and Krivoi Rog, and participated in Wehrmacht's retreat.

In early 1944, the 509th was involved in the Second Battle of Kiev and then retreated across Ukraine. In late May, the depleted 509th was pulled back for refitting. After receiving a full complement of Tiger 1s, the battalion was sent back to the front on 1 June 1944. On 22 June 1944, the Red Army launched Operation Bagration, and the 509th, attached to Army Group Centre, was in their line of advance. On 8 September 1944, the detachment lost sixteen Tigers in under 24 hours near Kielce, Poland.

In late September the battalion was pulled back to be equipped with Tiger IIs. After it had received forty-five new Tiger IIs in December 1944, the detachment was attached to IV SS Panzer Corps, which was preparing an attempt to relieve the encircled garrison of Budapest. Launched on 18 January 1945, the operation, codenamed Konrad III, was ultimately a failure. During the operation, the 509th had lost forty of its forty-five Tiger IIs, with ten being total losses.

The 509th was transferred to III Corps, to support Operation Frühlingserwachen in March, and retreating to Vienna. It took part in the Battle of Vienna in April, before retreating to the American lines. On 9 May 1945, the 509th surrendered to the U.S. Army near Linz.

Commanders

 * Hauptmann Hannibal von Lüttichau (? Aug 1943 - ? Nov 1943)
 * Hauptmann Hans-Jürgen Burmester (? Mar 1944 - ? Feb 1945)

Drexciya

Drexciya was an American electronic music duo from Detroit, Michigan, consisting of James Stinson (1969–2002 ) and Gerald Donald.

Career
The majority of Drexciya's releases were in the style of dance-floor oriented electro, punctuated with elements of retro and 1980s Detroit techno, with occasional excursions into the ambient and industrial genres. They had 3 releases on the highly influential Underground Resistance Detroit record label. Tracks were mostly centered around the Roland TR-808 drum machine, Casio CZ 5000 syntheszier, Korg Monopoly synthesizer, Roland D20 synthesizer, Kawai K1 synthesizer, and sometimes a Roland TR 909 drum machine.

In 1997, Drexciya released a compilation album, titled The Quest. The duo released three studio albums: Neptune's Lair (1999), Harnessed the Storm (2002), and Grava 4 (2002).

Drexciya, which eschewed media attention and its attendant focus on personality, developed around a nautical afrofuturist myth. The group revealed in the sleeve notes to their 1997 album The Quest that "Drexciya" was an underwater country populated by the unborn children of pregnant African women who were thrown off of slave ships; the babies had adapted to breathe underwater in their mothers' wombs. The myth was built partly on Paul Gilroy's The Black Atlantic: Modernity and Double Consciousness (1993), according to Kodwo Eshun.

Stinson died suddenly on 3 September 2002 of a heart condition. Gerald Donald continues to produce music under other names such as Dopplereffekt with To Nhan Le Thi and Japanese Telecom.

Legacy
In 2019, with support from Gerald Donald and Helen Stinson, the mother of James Stinson, visual artist Abu Qadim Haqq created The Book of Drexciya, Volume I (and later The Book of Drexciya, Volume II in 2021), which was inspired by the mythos of Drexciya’s work. The books chronicle the origins of Drexciya and the rise of their first ruler, Drexaha.

In 2023, "From the Deep: In the Wake of Drexciya", a multimedia exhibition by American photographer and contemporary artist Ayana V. Jackson opened at the National Museum of African Art. The exhibit took inspiration from the founding myth of Drexciya and directly featured music by the group.

Chengdu Shuangliu International Airport

Chengdu Shuangliu International Airport (traditionally as Chengdu Airport) is one of two international airports serving Chengdu, the capital of Sichuan province in Southwestern China. It mainly serves domestic flights around China.

Located about 16 km southwest of downtown Chengdu to the north of Shuangliu district, Shuangliu Airport is an important aviation hub for Western China. Shuangliu Airport is one of the two core hubs for Air China, the other being Beijing Capital International Airport. The airport is also the principal hub and headquarters for Sichuan Airlines and Chengdu Airlines. China Eastern Airlines, China Southern Airlines, Shenzhen Airlines, Lucky Air, and Tibet Airlines also have bases at Shuangliu Airport.

Shuangliu Airport was the third-busiest airport in the world and the second-busiest airport in China in 2020.

History
The airport, formerly named Shuangguisi Airport, opened as an auxiliary military airfield in 1938 during the Second Sino-Japanese War/World War II. At the time, its runway was only large enough for small biplanes. It was also where the Republic of China Air Force Polikarpov I-15 fighters of the 5th Pursuit Group were based for aerial defense of the Chengdu area against Imperial Japanese bomber raids;this following the Chinese retreat from Wuhan to Chungking (now Chongqing) as the new provisional capital in aftermath of the Battle of Wuhan against the Imperial Japanese onslaught. Civilian targets were indiscriminately bombed, and ace fighter pilot of the Chinese Air Force Major Wong Sun-shui, Captain Cen Zeliu and Lieutenant Lin Heng (younger brother of renowned architect and poet Lin Huiyin) flying in their I-15 fighter planes were all killed over Shuangliu air base as a result of battling against the most advanced fighter aircraft of the time; the Mitsubishi A6M "Zero" (Reisen) fighter, in defense of Chengdu on 14 March 1941.

When the U.S. was shocked into World War II with the Pearl Harbor attack, the airport became known as "Shwangliu Airfield" as it was later used by the United States Army Air Forces Fourteenth Air Force as part of the China Defensive Campaign (1942–1945). It was used as a fighter base by the 33d Fighter Group, which flew P-47 Thunderbolt fighter-bombers from the airport in 1944 to support Chinese ground forces, and also by reconnaissance units that operated camera-equipped P-38 Lightnings that located Japanese forces and provided intelligence to the fighter-bombers. The Americans closed their facilities at Shwangliu Airfield at the end of August 1945.

On 12 December 1956, the Shuangguisi Airport was put under civil aviation, which was then formally listed as a civil aviation airport and renamed Chengdu Shuangliu Airport. In 1957, the flights of Chengdu civil aviation were shifted to Shuangliu Airport from Guanghan Airport. The flight courses from Chengdu were thus opened to various cities within China including Beijing, Taiyuan, Xi'an, Chongqing, Kunming, Guiyang, and Nanchong. The airport went through several earlier expansions in 1959, 1967, 1983 and 1991 respectively.

Current status
A large-scale expansion was conducted on flight area and navigation area from 1994 to 2001. The runway was extended to 3600 m with Class 4E rating, allowing for larger jumbo jets including the Boeing 747-400. The newly built terminal building was incorporated with a three-parallel-porch design, accommodating an hourly capacity of 3,500 passengers during rush hours, while the previous terminal building was only designated for regional flights within Sichuan and Chongqing.

The airport is now an international civil airport with flights to more than 50 international destinations and over 170 domestic airports, and is a hub for Chengdu Airlines, Air China and Sichuan Airlines. It is linked to downtown Chengdu by the Airport Expressway, the Chengdu–Mianyang–Leshan intercity railway and the newly built Chengdu Metro line 10 which has stations in both terminals. KLM launched the first intercontinental air route from Chengdu, to Amsterdam, on 28 May 2006.

The construction of its second runway started from late 2008, and service commenced in December 2009. The completed new runway, 3,600 m in length and 60 m in width, upgraded the previous flight area rating from 4E to 4F, capable of handling the Airbus A380. The new Terminal 2 has started construction in June 2009; trial operations began on 28 July 2012 with limited airlines and was officially opened on 9 August 2012 for all domestic airlines other than Sichuan Airlines. T1 is split into Domestic and International wings, and retained all international flights from airlines within and outside China. The new terminal is twice the size of the current T1, and allows the airport to handle up to 50 million passengers annually.

On 9 June 2014, United Airlines began operating a nonstop service from San Francisco to Chengdu, connecting central China to the United States non-stop for the first time. Service to the US has since expanded, as Hainan Airlines now offers nonstop service from Chengdu to Los Angeles and began nonstop service to New York–JFK in October 2017. In addition, Sichuan Airlines and Air China have many international routes in this airport.

With the opening of Chengdu Tianfu Airport on 27 June 2021, it is planned for most international and cargo routes to be moved away from Shuangliu Airport, which is to mainly operate domestic flights going forward.

Other facilities
China Southwest Airlines once had its headquarters on the airport property.

Notable?
Is this notable? Is he known for anything other than the "Fucked Company" website and starting a small internet-ad company? Should the page be merged into the one on Fucked Company?

Animal Porn
It is rumored that there is a video floating around on the internet of pud and an unwilling female cow.

 * It appears thet the "pud cigar" image has been deleted. Do we have a suitable replacement or should this be removed from the page? Nisanu 18:47, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

 * Any idea why it was deleted? Seemed to be a publicity photo meant for these kinds of purposes.  Touchdown Turnaround 19:50, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

Okay, now we got a different Pud picture. Why, and why was the prior one removed? And does anyone care?

One Simple Question: Why are Kaplan's ventures into pornographic publishing not mentioned? In the great biographical schema of things, this would seem like a relevant piece of information about his achievements and or failures.

Rollergurl
Has there been any mention of Pud getting engaged to Rollergurl AKA?

Who asked this question? Why would anyone care?

This article is useless and 100% POV
BobGoatse 18:59, 10 February 2007 (UTC)I find this whole article to be completely useless. Philip Kaplan is famous for having abandoned FuckedCompany, and for having an outsider (Iggy Fanlo) take control of his company, not to mention his porn ventures and his countless failed business enterprises. This can be documented extensively via web articles and the like (ie - these are NOT unsubstantiated rumors). The fact that this article is protected seems to be only to protect his image. I bet pud doesn't want anyone to know about Privatelabelporn.com, or about the porn video where he's seen enjoying oral sex from a prostitute.

DRAGONFLY: Why did you delete this entry? Pud is an ex-pornographer and a real life failure. I can also document lots of articles where people mention that, after doing a Fuckedcompany site, all his buisness trials have been fucked companies themselves. IF you are indicative of the NPOV quality of wikipedia, this site isn't worth a thing.

Third-party observer: Please provide links to Pud's alleged failed business trials. Thanks.
 * Uh, there is AdBrite - would hardly call that a failure at this point. Philip is quite open about his lifestyle, history, and personal tastes - it is only a scandal if you think it is one.  He enjoys the notoriety perhaps but in his circles he is not a particularly controversial figure.  Wikidemo (talk) 19:50, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

Erskineville

Erskineville (previously known as Macdonaldtown) is a suburb in the Inner West of Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. It is located 6 kilometres south west of the Sydney central business district and is part of the local government area of the City of Sydney. Erskineville is a diverse suburb homing to a wide variety of ethnicity from its varying Southeast Europe and Aboriginal community. Erskineville is colloquially known as Erko.

Erskineville is bordered by the suburbs of Newtown to the west, Redfern to the north, St Peters to the south, and Alexandria to the east. The locality of Macdonaldtown sits over the north-west border.

Erskineville is a residential suburb. Erskineville Oval is located on the eastern border of the suburb.

History
The suburb was originally called Macdonaldtown after an earlier subdivision in 1846 in the south of Erskineville owned by Stephen Macdonald.

The area of Macdonaldtown/Erskineville was established as a residential and farming area in the early 19th century. Nicholas Devine, the first principal superintendent of convicts called his land Burren Farm, after a region of County Clare in his native Ireland. Burren Farm would later become parts of Newtown and Macdonaldtown (now Erskineville). Devine Street is named after Nicholas Devine and Burren street is named after his farm.

The streets around the early Macdonaldtown subdivision are named after relations of the Macdonald family - Amy, Flora, Eve, Coulson and Rochford. Knight Street is named for Henry Knight, one of the earliest brickmakers in the district and the first mayor of Macdonaldtown.

Erskineville is named after Erskine Villa, the home of Wesleyan minister, Reverend George Erskine, built in 1830. After changing owners a few times, the property was eventually left to the Church of England and became the rectory for the Holy Trinity Church at Macdonaldtown (it was demolished in 1961 after serving as the rectory for eighty years).

The area was first incorporated on 23 May 1872, with the name of the "Municipal District of Macdonald Town" (but was variously known as the "Borough of Macdonald Town" or the "Municipality of Macdonaldtown"). On 19 July 1872, the first council, consisting of six aldermen in one electorate, was elected (Charles Brandling Henderson, Henry Knight, James Bryan, Alexander Swanson, William Irwin and James Heighington), with Henry Knight elected as the first mayor at the first meeting on 23 July 1872.

In 1893 Macdonaldtown was renamed as Erskineville, when the Parliament of New South Wales passed the "Borough of Erskineville Naming Act, 1893", effecting the municipal name change. In the late nineteenth century, the inhabitants were originally market gardeners, though brick making and tanning also became dominant industries. The Victorian cottages and small rows of Victorian terraces that dominate the built form of the suburb were the homes of the workers in these industries, which explains their smallness: a four-metre wide terrace is large by Erskineville standards.

In the early twentieth century, manufacturing in the area diversified, and Erskineville became a resolutely working class inner city suburb. In 1938 the Erskineville Public Housing Scheme was inaugurated on the western end of Erskineville Park, as an early response by the NSW Government to the Housing Improvement Act 1937 towards the problem of slum clearance in the inner city. From the 1970s, Erskineville underwent gentrification with new residents attracted to the village atmosphere, public transport links and the proximity to the CBD. From the 19th century until the second half of the 20th century, the south-eastern section of Erskineville was taken up by large industrial uses. Bakewell Brothers brick and pottery works operated until 1956, and Metters Limited had a large factory that made items such as the "Kooka" stove operating from 1907 to 1974. Steelworks like McPherson’s and Hadfields Steel Works also operated until the 1970s. The site of these industrial works were identified since 1998 as a site for urban renewal, with the land east of the rail line, south of Ashmore Street and north of Coulson Street known as the "Ashmore Estate". The Ashmore Estate is currently identified for major residential redevelopment as part of the urban renewal process.

Trams
The Erskineville line opened as an electric double track tramway in 1909. It branched from tracks at Regent Street in Chippendale, and passed west along Meagher Street, then south into Abercombie Street. It followed Abercrombie Street south across the junction with Cleveland Street through Golden Grove, before swinging south into Golden Grove Street then right into Wilson Street. The line then passed under the railway lines at Burren Street, adjacent to the entrance to Macdonaldtown railway station. The line then became a single track loop passing up Burren Street to Erskineville Road, then west along Erskineville Road to Septimus Street, then Albert Street before rejoining the tracks at Burren Street. Services operated from Circular Quay using the Pitt and Castlereagh Street lines. The line south of Cleveland Street closed in 1940, with the northern section used by other services until its closure in 1958.

The Henderson Road line was a short line that branched from the Alexandria line tracks at the corner of Henderson and Mitchell Roads in Alexandria and passed along Henderson Road to Park Street in Erskineville, and later to Bridge Street adjacent to Erskineville railway station. Services operated from Circular Quay with the line opening to Park Street in 1906 and to Bridge Street in 1909. The line was an electrified single track throughout. The line was an early closure in 1933 and was replaced by a private bus service that no longer operates.

Trains and buses
Heavy rail was extended south from Central railway station to Erskineville between 1884 and 1893 via the Illawarra railway line. Today, Erskineville is served by the Bankstown Line of the Sydney Trains network. Newtown railway station, Macdonaldtown railway station and St Peters railway station also service the suburb and are within close distance from the centre of Erskineville.

Transdev John Holland operate a service from Marrickville Metro shopping centre to Bondi Junction through Erskineville.

 * A poster traced back to the Cicada 3301 online puzzle was in this suburb.

Ice Age: The Meltdown

Ice Age: The Meltdown (also known as Ice Age 2: The Meltdown) is a 2006 American animated adventure comedy film produced by Blue Sky Studios and distributed by 20th Century Fox. It is the sequel to Ice Age (2002) and the second installment in the Ice Age film series. The film was directed by Carlos Saldanha from a screenplay written by Peter Gaulke, Gerry Swallow, and Jim Hecht, and a story by Gaulke and Swallow. Ray Romano, John Leguizamo, Denis Leary, and Chris Wedge reprise their roles from the first Ice Age film, with newcomers Seann William Scott, Josh Peck, and Queen Latifah joining the cast. In the film, Manny, Sid, and Diego attempt to escape an impending flood, during which Manny finds love.

The film premiered in Belgium on March 1, 2006, and in the United States on March 31. Despite receiving mixed reviews from critics, it grossed $667 million worldwide, marking it the third highest-grossing film of 2006 and the highest-grossing animated film of 2006. Three more sequels were released: Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs in 2009, Ice Age: Continental Drift in 2012, and Ice Age: Collision Course in 2016.

Plot
Manny, Sid, and Diego live in a valley surrounded by a high ice wall on all sides. The trio discovers that the ice wall is actually a dam that is barely holding a reservoir that could flood the valley if it fails. A vulture tells them that there is a boat at the other end of the valley that may save them, but they must reach it in three days. A chunk of ice breaks off from the top of the dam, initiating their immediate evacuation. Manny is also struggling with the thought of possibly being the last mammoth alive and Diego is revealed to suffer from severe aquaphobia due to his inability to swim.

Meanwhile, Cretaceous, an ichthyosaur and Maelstrom, a pliosaur—both frozen since the Mesozoic era—escape due to melting ice and seek to eat all the mammals they can during the flood. On their journey to the boat, the trio meet Ellie, a mammoth who believes she is an opossum, and Crash and Eddie, two mischievous opossums whom Ellie believes to be her brothers. Sid invites them to join their journey to the boat, and Ellie accepts. After a dangerous encounter with Cretaceous and Maelstrom while crossing a pond, Sid tries to teach Diego how to swim, while Ellie realizes that she is a mammoth. Manny begins to fall in love with her, but denies his feelings at first because he feels like he is replacing his deceased wife and child. Despite this bonding moment with Manny, she distances herself from him when he suggests "saving their species". Ellie and Manny ultimately reconcile when they must co-operate to save the group when the ground cracks under their feet. Ellie begins to reciprocate Manny's feelings afterwards.

The herd takes a break for the night, and while the others are asleep, Sid is kidnapped by a tribe of mini-sloths who believe him to be the God of Fire and that sacrificing him by tossing him into a volcano is the only way to stop the flood; Sid narrowly escapes and reunites with the others as they wake up. After being harassed by vultures, the group finds the boat behind a field of hot geysers. Manny, Sid, and Diego separate from Ellie, Crash, and Eddie when the two mammoths argue about which route is safest.

Just as Manny, Sid, and Diego bypass the geysers, the ice dam fails, unleashing a flood upon the valley. Ellie, Crash, and Eddie, who took the safer yet longer way, are trapped inside a cave due to falling rocks. Crash and Eddie escape through a small hole and warn Manny, who rushes back to save Ellie. Crash and Eddie are taken by the current; Sid tries to save them, but is knocked unconscious on an ice block. Diego overcomes his fear of water to save Sid and the possums. Cretaceous and Maelstorm ambush Manny underwater, but he tricks them into dislodging a boulder, killing them and freeing Ellie at the same time. Manny and Ellie reunite with the others atop a boulder, but the water is still rising. Meanwhile, Scrat, after a series of misadventures to get back his acorn, climbs the adjacent glacial wall beside them and inadvertently creates a long crack when he punctures the ice. The crack widens into a gigantic fissure which splits open the wall and drains the floodwaters, saving everyone; in the process, Scrat falls within the fissure and is washed away.

Shortly after, Sid encounters the mini-sloth tribe again. Their leader suggests that Sid should join them, thinking he is the one that stopped the flood, but Diego refuses to let Sid go, saying that he is a vital part of their group. A group of mammoths later appear from the fissure, proving to everyone that mammoths are not really extinct. Manny initially lets Ellie go with the mammoth herd, but after some encouragement from Sid and Diego to move on from his past, he catches up to her, expressing his desire to stay with her. Manny, Sid, Diego, Ellie, Crash, and Eddie then venture out of the valley.

After falling into the fissure and nearly drowning, Scrat has a near death experience, entering a heaven full of acorns. Suddenly, he finds himself being "sucked back" just as he is about to reach a gigantic acorn. Scrat then discovers that he has been resuscitated by Sid. Scrat is enraged, believing that Sid stole his acorn, and proceeds to viciously attack him.

Production
After the release of Ice Age in March 2002, executive producer Chris Meledandri commented on the potential Ice Age sequel: "The success of Ice Age is something that gives us additional momentum. It's too early to say, but it's certainly something we'll explore." By June 2002, Blue Sky Studios was already working on the sequel. In 2003, Lori Forte, the producer of the first film, signed a multi-year deal with Fox Feature Films to develop and produce animated films, including a potential Ice Age sequel. During an interview with Denis Leary in July 2003, he said that he had expressed hope to reprise his role as Diego in the sequel: "I think there's a story – the people at Fox are working on one right now. I think they're talking about going back into the studios something around late Fall." In that same year, 2006 was reported as the planned release year, and by August 2004, its final release date, March 31, 2006, had been set.

Initially developed under the working title of Ice Age 2, it was renamed by June 2005 to Ice Age 2: The Meltdown, but for the film's final release in March 2006, the creators decided to remove the number 2, calling it Ice Age: The Meltdown. However, in the United Kingdom, Ireland, Mexico, and Australia, its title is promoted as Ice Age 2: The Meltdown. Also, most of the sponsors of the film had the 2 in their packaging after the name change (they however did edit the 2 out of their TV ads).

Carlos Saldanha, the director of the film, strove to make the characters' eyes appear alive and not mechanical. “You want the facial expressions to work. I wanted it to be so that if you looked into their eyes, you would know what they were thinking.” in his own words. The characters, despite being from the last movie, were remodeled for the sequel.

Soundtrack
The score is by John Powell; the soundtrack also features the song "Food Glorious Food" from the musical and film Oliver!. Powell composed brand new music for the film that replaced the theme songs from the previous film. Aram Khachaturian's Adagio from Spartacus is featured during Scrat's Heavenly vision. The track was released as a record, titled Ice Age: The Meltdown on March 28, 2006, by Varèse Sarabande Records.

Release
Ice Age: The Meltdown had its world premiere on March 19, 2006, at the Mann's Grauman Chinese Theater in Los Angeles, California. The film was re-released in 3D on October 13, 2014, in China only.

Marketing
As an additional marketing ploy a special "anti-cell" spot was created with Sid complaining to the audience about a ringing cellular phone. The same was done for Brother Bear, I, Robot, Kung Fu Panda, and Robots.

On Family Guy's episode "Sibling Rivalry", Scrat is shown trying to take three nuts out of the side of a glacier; Peter shows up and tries to stop him, admonishing the squirrel for stealing, which drives Scrat to subsequently attack Peter. The scene was rendered in 3D (Family Guy is normally drawn in 2D), and Scrat was voiced by Chris Wedge who voices him in the films. Fox aired promotions for the film throughout the evening. During the same evening of this cameo, Sid was hosting the entire FOX line-up, showing up in intermittent times between commercials.

Re-edited scenes of Ice Age: The Meltdown were shown in Airhead candy commercials on several kids' channels and programs, such as the Disney Channel, Nickelodeon, ABC Kids on ABC, and more. It shows, in part, that after Scrat defeats a school of piranha, he proudly displays an Airhead packet (replaced by an acorn in the actual film), when suddenly an eagle comes over and swipes it from him.

One of the posters for the film was a parody of an iPod advertisement, with "iAge" replacing "iPod" and an acorn replacing an iPod.

Home media
Ice Age: The Meltdown was released on Blu-ray Disc and DVD in North America on November 21, 2006, according to the official web store. They were released in the UK on October 23, 2006, and both include a new Scrat short, No Time for Nuts.

Box office
The film exceeded expectations by opening with an $68,033,544 in its first weekend. This was the second biggest opening for a non-summer, non-holiday release, after the $83,848,082 of The Passion of the Christ. The film set a record for the highest-grossing opening weekend in March, which lasted a year till it was surpassed by the $70,885,301 weekend of 300. The film grossed a total of $195,330,621 at United States and Canadian box offices, making it the first film in 2006 to pass the $100 million mark. The film has grossed $667,094,506 worldwide and it is the 66th highest-grossing film of all time. Ice Age: The Meltdown was the highest grossing animated film worldwide of 2006, but lost to Cars for being the highest grossing animated film in North America.

Chris Meledandri, then president of 20th Century Fox Animation, credited the film's successful performance to the studio's strength in global marketing and distribution, the diversity of the crew, and Saldanha's method of using images rather than words to solve creative problems. Meledandri cited the success of Saldanha's model as a main factor in his decision to leave 20th Century Fox and found Illumination Entertainment the following year.

Critical reception
Ice Age: The Meltdown received mixed reviews, with Rotten Tomatoes giving the film a "rotten" rating, with of reviews positive. The consensus statement reads: "Despite its impressive animation and the hilarious antics of the saber-toothed squirrel Scrat, Ice Age 2: The Meltdown comes up short on the storytelling front." Another review aggregator, Metacritic, calculated a score of 58, placing it at the high end of the site's "mixed or average reviews" category.

Neil Smith, writing for the BBC, gave the film four stars out of five, declaring it as "an improvement on the original", and praising the film's greater focus on Scrat and its environmentalist themes. Caroline Westbrook, writing in Empire magazine, gave the film three stars out of five, declaring that it had "plenty of laughs", but critiquing its plot as badly put together. Roger Ebert gave the film two-and-a-half stars out of four, stating "the first Ice Age movie more or less exhausted these characters and their world, and the meltdown doesn't add much." Kimberly Jones of the Austin Chronicle gave the film two stars out of five, calling it a "watered-down likeness" of the first film that lacked its "geniality", and critiquing its third act as "too scary".

Film critics generally agreed that the scenes focusing on the character of Scrat were the most entertaining parts of the movie, with Smith and Philip French of The Guardian both expressing this view.

CinemaScore polls conducted during the opening weekend, cinema audiences gave The Meltdown an average grade of "A" on an A+ to F scale.

Analysis
In an analysis of environmentalist themes in the film, Ellen E. Moore, a lecturer at the University of Washington Tacoma, found that while the film presents climate change as a serious issue that threatens the main characters, the film's vagueness around what is causing this undermines the scientific consensus that humans are causing climate change. Moore also found that the story contains numerous references to the biblical narrative of Noah's Ark, citing as evidence for this connection the fact that the animals largely travel either as pairs or as couples with children to the boat that is to save them. Moore ties these religious themes into what she perceives as the film's refusal to fully back anthropogenic climate change.

Video game
A tie-in video game was published by Vivendi Universal Games.
