Talk:Upstairs, Downstairs (1971 TV series)

Hagiography
Leaving to one side the fact that this article is far too long, given that this is just a television series, it has the character of a hagiography and needs to be toned down. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.79.153.6 (talk) 07:23, 31 July 2022 (UTC)

Jean Marsh "wrote series"
"...wrote much of the series," says an ignorant somebody. She *wrote* none of it. She only did the series format, and acted in it. Steve from updown.org.uk 2A02:C7D:C62D:B00:F8FB:383B:189E:6260 (talk) 17:17, 14 October 2018 (UTC)

Maude spelling
It's spelt differently in the article. Maude vs Maud. Should settle on one or other for consistency. She is almost always down as "Roberts", but I have some paperwork for "House Divided" and it's with the "e". Sambda (talk) 03:45, 25 May 2009 (UTC)

Job descriptions of Edward, Frederick and Alfred in 2nd table
Seems odd that they are described as "servant", as that is really a catch-all word. Would be better to put them down as footmen/valet/under-butler as appropriate - "servant" tells us the obvious, and all the other servants have their positions given (e.g. parlourmaid etc). Also Pearce should also really be down as coachman as well as chauffeur. Sambda (talk) 03:30, 25 May 2009 (UTC)

Cleanup
Needs cleanup. Several erroneous 'facts' added; inconsistency about regular cast vs. recurring characters. Quill 22:39, 21 July 2005 (UTC)

 * I will continue to tidy this page up as much as time allows me. I intend to create a page for each the main characters, a project I've already started. I also want to finish the List of Upstairs, Downstairs characters page. I also think that due to the popularity and length of the programme it would warrant a page on each episode, which I am happy to do. This would cut down the excessivley long and confusing current "Story" as much of this info would be on the individual pages. If anyone has any comments to make etc please let me know. I would really like some more photos on the page (especially on character pages), there are some good photos on www.updown.org.uk, but I'm no specialist on copyright. --UpDown 21:40, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

Could the anonymous user please fact check?
It would be nice if the enthusiastic anonymous user (and we do appreciate your enthusiasm) who keeps adding to this article would fact check material, or add notes that they were not sure of parenthetically; a non-visible note can be added in this manner: (Shows up when you click the edit this page tab) Otherwise, there’s so much cleanup to do over material that has already been copyedited.

Corrected story summery sentence about Thomas and Sarah having never married. They in fact did marry and were spun of to their own short-lived series "Thomas and Sarah" (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0137328/). -- Jango Davis 13:12, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Uh, no they weren't, I've seen their short-lived series. He promised he'd marry her, he didn't say when. They got into a bunch of hilarious scrapes, but the no-marriage thing is clearly highlighted throughout especially in the episode There Is A Happy Land, Sarah tells Thomas she's pregnant (to stop them from going to America), and Thomas finds out that she's not, and he tells everyone in the town that they are currently living in that they are not married at a dinner party to pay her back (by embarrassing her). Sergeant   Snopake  16:33, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

Ruby
'was replaced with Ruby, a hardworking young woman with minor mental disabilities' - hardworking? Ruby? Her constant cry seemed to be 'My arm's getting tired, Mrs. Bridges.' And I don't think she had minor mental disabillities, either. She could be intelligent enough when she wanted to be. Ruby once said, as quoted in the article (I don't think it's exact, though), 'They'll not last long and I'll get the guesthouse'. She had it all sewn up. It seemed, to me at least, it was her constant lazyness that annoyed Mrs. Bridges so. Sergeant  Snopake  14:26, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

 * Actually it was Edward who complained his arm was getting too tired after turning the crank handle on an ice cream machine. I don't believe Ruby ever said anything about fatigued arms. Mapjc (talk) 01:20, 6 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Nonsense. She complained quite a lot about being tired. However, that doesn't mean she was lazy, as she was worked mercilessly. 'Minor mental disabilities' is just plain nonsense. She wasn't Mensa material, but by no means as stupid as is stated.

I'm too tense
What's the story with the Story section? The first half of it's in the past tense and the rest in the present. Clarityfiend 08:19, 15 September 2006 (UTC)

 * I have attempted to change it all so it is all in the past tense. --UpDown 09:16, 15 September 2006 (UTC)

Infobox
I have removed Patsy Smart from the infobox because the infobox should only have the main cast in, otherwise this box would be very, very long. Joan Benham and Raymond Huntley appeared in more episodes than her, so if we put Smart in, they would have to be in as well; and then it would be far too long. Also, Smart was normally only a minor character (except in two episodes). --UpDown 13:07, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

Timescale
I have been enjoying this series on ITV4, but have noticed the immense timespan covered in the series. It begins before King Edward VII dies, but stretches on till the 1930s. But none of the characters really get any older.

Did the writers acknowledge the passing of the years on the characters, or are the like The Simpsons, always the same age no matter what the year? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.246.71.166 (talk) 16:33, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
 * It is set from 1903 to 1930. They did age to an extent, notice James' hair gets grey in the later episodes. Early episodes have comments regarding their age, but the later episodes tend to ignore this. It just about works out to be realistic, but had they gone on any longer it wouldn't have been! --UpDown 09:20, 8 November 2007 (UTC)

Hazels Death
Hazel dies, aged 32, Is her age true ?

In the German Version - and on the homepage http://www.updown.org.uk - you can't get this information. --AndreaMimi (talk) 18:22, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

 * The "homepage" is not that, its an unofficial fan website, which actually gives very little character detail. I'm fairly sure 32 is mentioned in the programme, and will revert the removal. Also I think "from series 3" sounds better than "series 3 to 5".--UpDown (talk) 07:05, 2 September 2008 (UTC)

 * Don't think Hazel's age was directly mentioned in the programme. The nearest we get to it is in "A Family Secret" where H says she met Patrick O'Connor when she was 19.  She also says she married him in spring 1902. Since "AFS" was set in autumn 1912, then I think that makes her *at least* 29 in that episode (if they got married immediately after meeting), so *at least* 35 in November 1918 (when she dies).  (Someone else double-check that maths, please!) Sambda (talk) 03:12, 25 May 2009 (UTC)

Ok, I have to belive, that 32 is mentioned in the programme. But I can't remember the detail, when I saw "Upstairs Downstairs" on a German Programm three years ago.

Have you ressourches, like another website or a book ?

"series 3 to 5" is the better form, I think. It's good to find the same way for all persons. --AndreaMimi (talk) 16:27, 2 September 2008 (UTC)

 * Don't need a website or book, the programme is reference itself. I think "from series 3" is better, otherwise it suggests perhaps they left earlier in series 5, like when we put "series 1 to 2".--UpDown (talk) 18:00, 2 September 2008 (UTC)

Its good for the articles here in the Wikipedia, that you put ressourches there.

So, I can belive your information or not. ;)

I change the form about the seasons and the persons in a good form. For example, we can put them in a table ? Then it will look better. --AndreaMimi (talk) 15:28, 4 September 2008 (UTC)

 * Yes a table is not a bad idea.--UpDown (talk) 07:20, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

Ok, I'll do my best with the dates and a table. I wish you a nice weekend. --AndreaMimi (talk) 16:30, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

Hazel was 30 the year she married James, 1912. If you take what her father says literally in the show, she had been married 10 years before in 1902 when she was 20 to a verbally abusive man. If I have my math right 10 + 20 = 30, 1902 + 10 = 1912, 1912 - 30 = 1882, 1918 - 1882 = 36. 36 her age at death.

Actually that isn't a screenshot/grab, if you want to be pedantic. I did the logo for my site (www.updown.org.uk) and it's a mock-up/reconstruction of the logo, not the original.

Incorrect Story Summary
The story summary for the first two seasons is very incorrect, particularly pertaining to James and Sarah. James did not force himself on Sarah after he found the servants drinking, he simply embarrassed her and ripped her dress, after which she left Eaton Place. Some time later, James and Elizabeth found Sarah, ill and destitute in the east end of London while they were volunteering at a Whitechapel soup kitchen. Elizabeth brought her home and she stayed in service once again at Eaton Place until she was duped into being an accomplice for a dishonest friend of James' and his valet. She got out of that mess somehow and began performing as an actress. James began visiting her at the theatre, they began an affair, and then she became pregnant. Mapjc (talk) 15:02, 29 March 2008 (UTC) The current story summary states in season 1 that James got Sarah pregnant and was banished to India. Whilst factually correct, I'd suggest either reworking the line to the second season storyline heading or appending (in the second season) to where it now only says "later". — Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.46.34.31 (talk) 20:50, 7 March 2021 (UTC)

Original inspiration
I know there were a number of people approached to give background information on this show, specifically those who had lived 'downstairs' and could give a perspective on servant life. I don't know who the final choice was, but I think this would be a good point to include in the article if anyone knows the person/persons that should be credited. Sky83 (talk) 17:20, 26 May 2008 (UTC)

External Link removed
The following external link: *Upstairs, Downstairs at the BBC was removed cos it linked straight to the BBC News website. I think the link's expired or whatever; if I have time I'll try and find a replaceable link etc or if anyone can find the original BBC page, that'd be cool. londonsista | Prod  02:00, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

Tables
You have nothing to work there and you don't see the tables, that I built. What's about them ? Are the right or not ?

'''Neve remove my comment's again. That's not your job.''' --AndreaMimi (talk) 14:49, 12 September 2008 (UTC)

 * The tables are not right. Please read up on the correct syntax, and do not insert them again in their current form Mayalld (talk) 15:06, 12 September 2008 (UTC)

Now, the tables are right. I gave my best. It was a very hard work.

Thank you for your help, Mayalld. You are very nice. --AndreaMimi (talk) 10:47, 16 September 2008 (UTC)

Miss Roberts
Why is she listed under "upstairs"? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sambda (talk • contribs) 22:16, 2 October 2008 (UTC)

BBC series
Now the BBC have released details about a new series, including a photo gallery of stills taken in Leamington Spa, is it appropriate to rename this series by year or by production company and create a new article about the BBC series, which obviously will have its own cast, production and other details. Photomonkey (talk) 01:29, 1 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Personally I think we should follow what editors did with the Doctor Who article, which was to keep the 'classic' series with the 'new' series. Obviously it will require a lot of work, but it is the same show... Iamthedoctor2009 (talk) 16:06, 22 November 2010 (UTC)

Title format
Why is there a comma in the title throughout the article? None of the DVD sets show a comma in the title. 184.100.67.169 (talk) 06:23, 13 December 2010 (UTC)
 * There shouldn't be a comma in the title. Propose to remove. FunkyCanute (talk) 13:21, 11 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Try Googling "comma" and "upstairs downstairs" and it's clear that the comma is generally seen as being part of the original title, even if the on-screen caption doesn't include it. Contemporary TV listings and reviews certainly include the comma, and it is, after all, correct punctuation for what the title is actually saying, i.e. one thing, then something else in contrast, like "north, south." Nick Cooper (talk) 13:58, 11 February 2011 (UTC)
 * That the comma isn't on the artwork is a function of the layout, with one word below the other. This two-tiered layout makes a comma redundant. But it doesn't mean that the comma isn't part of the title when written out in one line Ericoides (talk) 11:10, 26 June 2012 (UTC)

New titles
I updated the title screen shot on the Infobox and this was reverted because the old title screen shot was used on more episodes - this formula isn't used on any other articles. As an encyclopedia we have to keep things up to date, and as such I feel the new titles should be used in the Infobox. Iamthedoctor2009 (talk) 22:13, 28 December 2010 (UTC)
 * There were 68 episodes of the LWT series, and just three from the BBC. It is grossly disproportionate to not only flip the lead image emphasis to a tiny minority of the total episodes, but also to totally remove the original titles, as you did. Nick Cooper (talk) 22:26, 28 December 2010 (UTC)

Ended
My recent edits to show the series as 'ended' have been reverted to give the impression that it is ongoing. With no further episodes scheduled, this makes no sense. Andy Mabbett (User: Pigsonthewing ); Andy's talk; Andy's edits 01:25, 30 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Indeed. However, Marker10 appears to believe that the Christmas special series heralds a new upcoming series. As of today, the BBC has made no such announcement nor made any indication that further episodes are in the offing. FunkyCanute (talk) 16:49, 30 December 2010 (UTC)

The BBC have not annouced it has ended they may commission another series sometime in the future. If you can find a BBC source stating it has ended then i'll stop changing it back. --Marker10 (talk) 17:10, 30 December 2010 (UTC)

 * We don't have to prove a negative. If no annoucement has been made about further episodes, we cannot automatically assume that there will be any. Nick Cooper (talk) 17:22, 30 December 2010 (UTC)

Well give the BBC a chance its only been 2 days since the Specials finished airing.--Marker10 (talk) 17:26, 30 December 2010 (UTC)

There being no evidence that a further series is scheduled, I propose that Marker10's edits in this regard be reverted. Andy Mabbett (User: Pigsonthewing ); Andy's talk; Andy's edits 21:15, 30 December 2010 (UTC)

Series, not special
Marker10, will you please stop trying to claim the recent series as "specials" - a term which normally denotes a single one-off programme. It is clearly a multi-episodic series. Nick Cooper (talk) 17:54, 30 December 2010 (UTC)

 * Why are they called Christmas Specials then and why were they not aired weekly if it's a series?n--Marker10 (talk) 18:00, 30 December 2010 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Marker10 (talk • contribs) 17:57, 30 December 2010 (UTC)

 * This BBC press release clearly describes it as, "a new series of Upstairs Downstairs," and also a "serial," but nowhere uses the words "Christmas specials." I am therefore reverting your spurious and very esoteric opinion. Nick Cooper (talk) 18:06, 30 December 2010 (UTC)

Confusing Storyline about Rose
In the Christmas specials, Rose claimed she received the tea set from her late employer - Lord Bellamy. However, as Lady Bellamy's personal maid, she would still have served for Lady Bellamy, after Richard's death, instead of running her own business. Am I the only one who noticed this? --Reverend Edward Brain, D.D. (talk) 20:03, 18 May 2011 (UTC)

Comma
Why are we spelling the title with a comma? It isn't used in either iteration of the titles, and certainly secondary material relating to the BBC series does not use it. So why is it there? U-Mos (talk) 11:44, 10 January 2012 (UTC)
 * John Hawkesworth's novelizations have it with the comma, on both the title page and each individual page. ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots→ 12:02, 10 January 2012 (UTC)
 * It seems to me that the only source that matters is the title card for the show, and there's no comma there for the original series. I think the article should be titled without the comma. Z57N (talk) 00:55, 9 October 2012 (UTC)

Split discussion
Looking it this page, as well as the sources relating to the new series, it seems to me that it would be sensible to have a seperate article for each iteration. Notwithstanding the time gap between series 5 of the original show and the relaunch, I have not seen any source that refers to the 2010 episodes as "series six" (as the lead does here currently) over a "re-launch" or similar. Also, the almost entirely new cast and situation in the re-launch makes plot summaries very difficult. The characters pages are already seperate, and it seems to work well there. On a minor point, following from my query above it does seem that the orignal series uses a comma in its title, but the re-launch does not in any source I have seen (including BBC press releases), hence the title suggestions I have entered of Upstairs, Downstairs (1971 TV series) and Upstairs Downstairs (2010 TV series). Upstairs Downstairs/Upstairs, Downstairs would be a disambiguation page to both articles. U-Mos (talk) 19:55, 14 January 2012 (UTC)

I note the reference Rose makes to my late master Lord Bellamy - my understanding is that late was a servant's way of referring to a former employer and does not necessarily mean that Richard had died. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.105.73.64 (talk) 01:18, 22 January 2012 (UTC)

Upstairs, Downstairs (1971 TV series) → Upstairs, Downstairs – This is really an attempt to decide what to do with the base title Upstairs, Downstairs. This article's current form was created as part of a split in January 2012; material on the 2010 sequel series was moved to Upstairs Downstairs (2010 TV series) and material on the 70s series was moved to the present title. However, the base title was left redirecting here, which should not be happening per WP:CRITERIA. Either this article is the primary topic, in which case it should be at the base name, or it's not, and the base name should redirect to the dab page Upstairs Downstairs. The latter option will require fixing hundreds of incoming links, nearly all of which intend the 70s series. A third option would be (re)creating a WP:DABCONCEPT article, as some combination of the two related TV series is clearly what the vast majority of readers are searching for. If you oppose the move, please indicate what you think should be done with the base title Upstairs, Downstairs. Relisted.

 * No move; just change the redirect: We have a dab page at "Upstairs Downstairs". Relying on the presence of a comma to distinguish the topic from the dab page is too confusing. And we just closed a move request here a few days ago with a plan to leave this article where it is – it would be nice to leave that question alone for a while. I suggest for the article to stay where it is, and to redirect "Upstairs, Downstairs" to the dab page. Notice also that the logo for the show as it appears in the article doesn't even include the comma. But if we really want to consider the 1971 show "primary", we should at least move the dab page to "Upstairs Downstairs (disambiguation)" so the difference between them is more than a comma. —BarrelProof (talk) 01:38, 18 September 2013 (UTC)

Rendering, not document
Intro includes the following:

 * The series stands as a document of the social and technological changes that occurred between 1903 and 1930.

Because the show is fiction (albeit with references to historical events), "document" seems the wrong word. "Rendering" seems better.108.36.82.122 (talk) 19:17, 21 May 2014 (UTC)

Cavalcade
At http://www.nytimes.com/movies/movie/8678/Cavalcade/overview, there is a link to the original New York Times review of the 1933 movie Cavalcade, based on Noel Coward’s 1931 play of that name. A paragraph-long "review summary" that’s posted beneath the said link includes a parenthetical remark that is obviously not from the original review:

 * [T]he incidents and characterizations in Cavalcade are very, very close to those seen in the popular 1970s BBC series Upstairs, Downstairs[.]

Maybe that was written by Hal Erickson, who is listed as the author of the Review Summary.

The intro to Wikipedia’s above-linked article about the Coward play includes, without footnote, the following:

 * [T]he 1970s Television series Upstairs, Downstairs was based on the play.

Being unfamiliar with all of these works—the play, the movie, and the TV series—I personally can’t remark on any alleged similarity between Coward’s show and Upstairs, Downstairs. I see no reference to any such similarity in this Wikipedia article (about Upstairs, Downstairs). Have the creators of Upstairs, Downstairs ever spoken of it?108.36.82.122 (talk) 20:05, 21 May 2014 (UTC)

'Media in Cardiff' Navbox
I've just noticed the Media in Cardiff navbox is pinned to the bottom of Upstairs, Downstairs (1971 TV series) when it has nothing to do with Cardiff, as it was produced in London.

Only the Upstairs Downstairs (2010 TV series) was produced in Cardiff, and is the one correctly listed in the box.

So how are navboxes added to the bottom of pages and how can they be removed? Danstarr69 (talk) 06:26, 30 May 2018 (UTC)

First Major LWT Colour Production?
In the article is the line "Upstairs, Downstairs was one of the first major colour productions to be made by LWT." with a citation. I would just like to get clarification as to whether or not it was one of the first at their new studios, or if it was one of the first colour productions? If it is the latter, they were already producing colour series - see "Doctor In The House" from 1969 - unless that series was produced for LWT and not by LWT.

Also, it should be pointed out somewhere in this long article that the series set a model for many later tv series and films: it almost created the genre of "English upper-class family and servants drama" in its modern form. Downton Abbey, Gosford Park, The Remains of the Day, even the wave of Jane Austen movies and tv adaptations were all clearly influenced by it. 195.67.149.175 (talk) 10:18, 21 November 2018 (UTC)

Text relating to Richard Bellamy's peerage
I have moved the text "Richard is elevated to the House of Lords as Viscount Bellamy of Haversham in the New Year Honours List of 1917." from the section "Fifth series, set in 1919–1930" to the section "Fourth series, set in 1914–1918". Just to explain, I think it is clear from the text that this event takes place during the earlier period, and in fact the episode in which he becomes a peer is "Another Year" which is the 9th episode of the 4th series, so the text clearly belongs in that section, not the section covering the fifth series.

List of storms named Ione

The name Ione has been used for one tropical cyclone in the Atlantic Ocean, three tropical cyclones in the Eastern Pacific Ocean, and one tropical cyclone in the Western Pacific Ocean. It was used in the Atlantic before the formal naming system was instituted, and in the Pacific on the old four-year lists. The name Ione was retired in the Atlantic after 1955; this was before the formal lists were created, so it was not replaced with any particular name.

Atlantic:
 * Hurricane Ione (1955) – struck North Carolina

Eastern Pacific:
 * Tropical Storm Ione (1966)
 * Tropical Storm Ione 1 (1970)
 * Tropical Storm Ione 2 (1970)
 * Hurricane Ione (1974)

Western Pacific:
 * Typhoon Ione (1948) (T4821) – made a landfall in Japan

Francis H. Kimball

Francis Hatch Kimball (September 24, 1845 – December 20, 1919) was an American architect practicing in New York City, best known for his work on skyscrapers in lower Manhattan and terra-cotta ornamentation. He was an associate with the firm Kimball & Thompson. His work includes the Empire Building, Manhattan Life Insurance Building, and Casino Theatre. All but one of Kimball's works were in the United States.

Life
Kimball was born in Kennebunk, Maine. He went on to study architecture in England. In 1879 he joined forces with Thomas Wisedell, with whom he designed the 1882 Casino Theatre on Broadway, and other projects. Wisedell died in 1884. Kimball practiced independently until 1892, when he formed Kimball & Thompson with G. Kramer Thompson. That partnership ended in 1898.

Kimball's Victorian Gothic Catholic Apostolic Church in New York City (1897) was praised by influential architectural critic Montgomery Schuyler as there being "no more scholarly Gothic work in New York." Kimball was also a pioneer in the use of ornamental terra-cotta in the United States, evident on the Corbin Building; on a striking row of townhouses that he designed at 133–143 West 122nd Street in Harlem; and on the Montauk Club in Park Slope, Brooklyn. Contemporaries described Kimball as the "father of the skyscraper".

A 1917 article in The New York Times noted his bankruptcy. Kimball died in 1919 in New York City and buried at Linwood Cemetery in Haverhill, Essex County, Massachusetts.

Multicast DNS

In computer networking, the multicast DNS (mDNS) protocol resolves hostnames to IP addresses within small networks that do not include a local name server. It is a zero-configuration service, using essentially the same programming interfaces, packet formats and operating semantics as unicast Domain Name System (DNS). It was designed to work as either a stand-alone protocol or compatible with standard DNS servers. It uses IP multicast User Datagram Protocol (UDP) packets and is implemented by the Apple Bonjour and open-source Avahi software packages, included in most Linux distributions. Although the Windows 10 implementation was limited to discovering networked printers, subsequent releases resolved hostnames as well. mDNS can work in conjunction with DNS Service Discovery (DNS-SD), a companion zero-configuration networking technique specified separately in.

History
Multicast DNS was first proposed by Bill Woodcock and Bill Manning in the IETF in 2000, and was eventually published as standards-track by Stuart Cheshire and Marc Krochmal thirteen years later.

Protocol overview
When an mDNS client needs to resolve a hostname, it sends an IP multicast query message that asks the host having that name to identify itself. That target machine then multicasts a message that includes its IP address. All machines in that subnet can then use that information to update their mDNS caches. Any host can relinquish its claim to a name by sending a response packet with a time to live (TTL) equal to zero.

By default, mDNS exclusively resolves hostnames ending with the  top-level domain. This can cause problems if  includes hosts that do not implement mDNS but that can be found via a conventional unicast DNS server. Resolving such conflicts requires network-configuration changes that mDNS was designed to avoid.

Packet structure
An mDNS message is a multicast UDP packet sent using the following addressing:
 * IPv4 address or IPv6 address
 * UDP port 5353
 * When using Ethernet frames, the standard IP multicast MAC address (for IPv4) or  (for IPv6)

The payload structure is based on the unicast DNS packet format, consisting of two parts—the header and the data.

The header is identical to that found in unicast DNS, as are the sub-sections in the data part: queries, answers, authoritative-nameservers, and additional records. The number of records in each sub-section matches the value of the corresponding *COUNT field in the header.

Queries
The wire format for records in the query section is slightly modified from that in unicast DNS, adding the single-bit UNICAST-RESPONSE field.

As in unicast DNS, the QNAME field consists of a series of length/value sub-fields called labels. Each label represents one of the dot-separated substrings in a fully qualified domain name (FQDN). The list is terminated by either a single null-byte representing the root of the DNS, or by a byte with the two high-order bits set (value 192) to signal an indirect pointer to another location in the message. This is known as name compression in RFC 6762.

The UNICAST-RESPONSE field is used to minimize unnecessary broadcasts on the network: if the bit is set, responders SHOULD send a directed-unicast response directly to the inquiring node rather than broadcasting the response to the entire network.

The QCLASS field is identical to that found in unicast DNS.

Resource Records
All records in the answers, authoritative-nameservers, and additional records sections have the same format and are collectively known as Resource Records (RR).

Resource Records in mDNS also have a slightly modified general format compared to unicast DNS:

The CACHE-FLUSH bit is used to instruct neighbor nodes that the record should overwrite, rather than be appended onto, any existing cached entries for this RRNAME and RRTYPE.

The formats of the RDATA fields are the same as those found in unicast DNS. However, DNS Service Discovery (DNS-SD), the most common use-case for mDNS, specifies slight modifications to some of their formats (notably TXT records).

Centene Stadium (Great Falls, Montana)

Centene Stadium is a stadium in the western United States, located in Great Falls, Montana. It is named for the Centene Corporation. which paid for the naming rights to the stadium. Primarily a baseball park, it is the home field of the Great Falls Voyagers independent minor league baseball team.

Built 84.63568579835744 years ago in 1940, it has a seating capacity of 4,000, a picnic area, and a barbecue area. Field dimensions are 335 ft to right field, 328 ft to left field, 415 ft to center field, and 368 ft to each power alley. Aligned northeast (home plate to second base), the elevation of the natural grass field is approximately 3400 ft above sea level.

Just southeast of the Black Eagle Dam on the Missouri River, the baseball park is owned by the city and leased to the Great Falls Baseball Club, Inc., a non-profit organization. In exchange for maintaining the park and updates, the city requires that the three local high school (American Legion affiliated) teams be allowed to practice and play in the stadium as long as it does not interfere with the operations of the Voyagers.

The three American Legion teams that play in the park are the Great Falls Chargers AA, Chargers A, and Chargers B. The previous names of these teams where the Stallions, Electrics, and Chargers; the programs merged into one organization, thus the new name.

Gaelic Grounds

The Gaelic Grounds, known for sponsorship reasons as the TUS Gaelic Grounds, is the principal GAA stadium in the Irish city of Limerick, home to the Limerick hurling and football teams. It has a capacity of 44,023.

History
9 October 1926 saw first steps taken towards creating the Limerick Gaelic Grounds as a GAA stadium of note. A farm containing 12 acre was purchased at Coolraine on the Ennis Road for development as a sporting grounds. Two years later the new grounds officially opened with two junior hurling games. The first big effort to raise funds for the development of the grounds was in 1932, with the establishment of a development committee, whose remit was to level the pitch, providing sideline seating and erect a boundary wall. The 1950s saw crowds of up to 50,000 attending games in the grounds. 1958 saw a new stand being built at Páirc na nGael – it was the Old Hogan Stand from Croke Park. A record paid attendance of 61,174 witnessed the Munster hurling final between Cork and Tipperary at the stadium in 1961 and it is estimated that another 10,000 spectators piled in without paying after the gates were broken down.

In 1979, a major decision was taken to update the grounds completely. It took three years before plans were drawn up for a new stand and in 1986, planning permission was granted by Limerick Corporation for the Mick Mackey Stand. The updated stand was completed in 1988, just in time for the Munster hurling final. In 2004, the biggest rejuvenation of the stadium was completed with the opening of the new uncovered 12,000 seater stand along with two new terraces behind both goals at a cost of €12 million. This brought the capacity of the Gaelic Grounds to 49,866.

The stadium has also hosted a game in the International Rules Series between Australia and Ireland. The hybrid game was played outside Croke Park for only the second time on Irish soil, with Pearse Stadium in Galway the other previous host. In 2014, the stadium played host to the All Ireland SFC semi-final replay between Mayo and Kerry, the first time in over thirty years a semi-final of the SFC was played outside Croke Park

In 2019, Limerick GAA and Limerick Institute of Technology (LIT) entered a major partnership agreement, the first of its kind in Ireland, which included the renaming of the stadium as LIT Gaelic Grounds. The partnership included elements such as a scholarship scheme, student internships and shared facilities.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, Gaelic Grounds was used as a drive-through test centre.

American football
The Gaelic Grounds has hosted two American college football games, called the Wild Geese Classic. The first Wild Geese Classic was in 1991 between Fordham and Holy Cross for the Ram-Crusader Cup.

Phoenix (band)

Phoenix is a French indie rock band from Versailles, formed in 1995. Their line-up, which has remained unchanged since their formation, comprises Thomas Mars (lead vocals, drums, percussion), Deck d'Arcy (bass, keyboards, backing vocals), Christian Mazzalai (guitar, backing vocals) and Laurent Brancowitz (guitar, keyboards, backing vocals). Thomas Hedlund has been the band's session and live drummer since 2005.

The band's sound has been primarily described as indie pop,   synth-pop,   pop rock,   and new wave. They have released seven studio albums, to date, with their fourth album, Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix, becoming a major breakthrough success in 2009. Featuring the singles "1901" and "Lisztomania", the album won a Grammy Award for Best Alternative Music Album. With the release of the band's fifth album, Bankrupt! (2013), the band headlined Coachella and Primavera Sound. The album was a commercial success, debuting at number 3 on the French Albums Chart and number 4 on the Billboard 200.

The band's Italo disco-influenced sixth studio album, Ti Amo, was released in 2017 and featured songs that celebrated the band's "European, Latin roots". The band's seventh studio album, Alpha Zulu (2022), was recorded within the Louvre Palace during the COVID-19 pandemic, and was inspired by the death of the band's longtime producer, friend and mentor Philippe Zdar.

Formation and early years
Phoenix was conceived in the 1990s when vocalist Thomas Mars, bassist Deck d'Arcy, and guitarist Chris Mazzalai, who were all friends in school, started playing together as a "garage band" based out of Mars's house in Versailles. In 1995, Laurent Brancowitz, Mazzalai's older brother, permanently joined the band on guitar after the end of Darlin', a short-lived band that Brancowitz had formed with Thomas Bangalter and Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo, who would later form electronic duo Daft Punk. Two years later the band took on the name Phoenix and pressed 500 copies of a single on their own label, Ghettoblaster. Shortly after, they were signed to the Paris-based Source Records. Phoenix quickly became well acquainted with labelmates Air when they acted as their backing band on several UK TV appearances.

United, Alphabetical, and Live! Thirty Days Ago (2000–2004)
Phoenix began releasing singles in 1999, the first of these being "Heatwave" and "Party Time", the latter of which would eventually appear on their debut album, United. The single "Too Young" was released on 22 May 2000, along with remixes of the track by Zoot Woman and Le Knight Club. "Too Young" was the band's first single to chart, reaching No. 97 in France and No. 148 in the UK. The band's debut album, United, was released on 12 June 2000. It featured the singles "Party Time" and "Too Young", with "If I Ever Feel Better" being announced as the third single from the album on 22 January 2001, and charting in several countries, reaching No. 12 in France and No. 4 in Italy. United received positive reviews, although the band did not reach mainstream success. "Too Young" was included on the soundtrack for the movie Lost in Translation (which was directed by Mars' future wife, Sofia Coppola), as well as in the movie Shallow Hal.

Shortly after the release of United, Phoenix began work on a second album, recording in 2003 and 2004 and releasing the singles "Run Run Run" and "Everything Is Everything" in 2004. The band's second album, Alphabetical, was released on 22 March 2004 and saw the band reach more mainstream success, with both singles reaching some alternative rock airplay charts. French fashion designer Hedi Slimane commissioned a special mix of their song "Victim of the Crime", taken from Alphabetical, as the soundtrack to one of his runway shows for Dior Homme.

Following Alphabetical, the band toured three continents, playing 150 dates. This tour was followed up with a live album, Live! Thirty Days Ago, released only thirty days after the end of the tour.

It's Never Been Like That and Kitsuné Tabloid (2005–2009)
After their Alphabetical tour, Phoenix spent time in Berlin during the summer of 2005, making use of Planet Roc studios to produce their third album. On 8 May 2006, the band released the lead single from the album, titled "Long Distance Call". American band Paramore would go on to perform a cover of the song live on Taratata, a French TV show. Phoenix's third studio album, titled It's Never Been Like That, was released on 15 May 2006. It was the first to feature Thomas Hedlund on drums.

To promote the release of the album, Phoenix toured the United States and Europe in 2006. The album charted in several countries, reaching even greater success than Alphabetical, although it still did not chart in much of North America. It's Never Been Like That was re-released in Mexico later that year, with the so-called "tour edition" featuring four bonus tracks recorded live in Oslo from the tour. On 11 September 2006, the track "Consolation Prizes" was announced to be the second single from It's Never Been Like That.

Phoenix curated a compilation album for French electronic music record and fashion label Kitsuné. It was released on 23 March 2009, and includes music by Elvis Costello, Roxy Music, Kiss, Lou Reed and others.

Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix (2009–2011)
In early 2009, around the time of the release of the Phoenix's compilation album for Kitsuné, it was announced that the band would be returning with a new album titled Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix, which would be released on 25 May 2009. The album was recorded in Paris, and was co-produced and mixed by Philippe Zdar of Cassius. "1901", a tribute to early Paris, was released on 23 February 2009 on the band's website as a free download. Due to extremely positive reviews, the song was then issued as a retail single and aired for the first time on Australian radio station Triple J. In June 2009, after the release of the album, Phoenix first appeared on the cover of the 62nd issue of The FADER publication. As the album's popularity rapidly grew, "Lisztomania" and "Lasso" were issued as the second and third singles from Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix.

As it became apparent that "1901" was Phoenix's biggest success yet, the song was performed live on several TV shows and began to appear everywhere. "1901" was featured in the US during Super Bowl XLV in a Green Bay Packers montage, and was also performed on Saturday Night Live along with "Too Young" and "Lisztomania" on 4 April. Phoenix also performed "Lisztomania" on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, "Girlfriend" on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson, and "1901" on the Late Show with David Letterman, Jimmy Kimmel Live! and The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien.

Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix won Best Alternative Music Album at the 2009 Grammy Awards on 31 January 2010. Shortly afterwards, "1901" hit No. 1 on the Billboard Alternative Songs chart. The album was the first Phoenix album to be certified gold and appeared on numerous "Best of" lists at the end of 2010, including Rolling Stone magazine. In addition, "1901" and "Lisztomania" were certified platinum and gold, respectively.

Following the album's release, Phoenix appeared at various major music festivals, including the Austin City Limits Music Festival in Texas in 2009, Coachella Music Festival in Indio, California in 2010, the 2010 Bonnaroo Music Festival in Manchester, Tennessee, the Southside Festival and Hurricane Festival in Germany, the 2010 Lollapalooza, the Mile High Music Festival, Outside Lands Music and Arts Festival in San Francisco, California, Rock Werchter 2010 in Belgium, and the 2010 Reading and Leeds Festivals. On 20 October 2010, French electronic music group Daft Punk, composing of guitarist Christian Mazzalai's childhood friends Thomas Bangalter and Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo, made a special appearance for their show in Madison Square Garden.

AllMusic, a review website, commented favourably on the release of the album. "Beyond containing the band's best, most efficient songwriting, the album also stands apart from the first three studio albums by projecting a cool punch that is unforced," a reviewer commented. Vocalist Thomas Mars, described as "more bright-eyed and youthful than ever", is more prominent in these songs, harmonising with the instruments. "Maybe they've just hit their stride," the reviewer said.

Phoenix are the subject of a documentary From a Mess to the Masses that documents their 2009–10 tour in support of Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix. The film was directed by Antoine Wagner and Francisco Soriano—Wagner was also responsible for directing the "Lisztomania" music video. The title of the documentary is a lyrical excerpt from "Lisztomania" and the total running time is 52 minutes. From a Mess to the Masses premiered in Germany and France on the Arte television network on 13 October 2011.

Bankrupt! (2011–2015)
On 5 April 2011, the band posted a blog update on their website entitled "Songwriting..." with CCTV stills of the band working in a studio. The band said that the album would be a departure from the pop sounds of Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix, and they were trying to create something more experimental. The same year, vocalist Thomas Mars married American screenwriter and director Sofia Coppola, whom he had met while producing the soundtrack to The Virgin Suicides in 1999.

On 16 January 2012, the band had completed four songs for the fifth album and it was scheduled for a late summer 2012 release, with an autumn tour. Daniel Glass, the founder of Glassnote Records, stated in relation to the material, "It's very hard to beat Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix, but this could be revolutionary." The webpage was updated to display the words Pluviôse, Thermidor and Vendémiaire. Pluviôse, Thermidor and Vendémiaire are three of the months of the French Republican Calendar (also known as the Revolutionary Calendar ).

On 16 January 2013 Bankrupt! was announced as the title of the fifth album. The cover depicts a color drawing of a peach next to a peach slice, with a pink flower and two green leaves; the track listing included song titles such as the title track, "S.O.S. in Bel Air", "Bourgeois", and "Oblique City".

A schedule of the music festivals that Phoenix performed at in support of the new album was announced and headline positions were confirmed for Germany's Rock am Ring and Rock im Park Festivals, Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, Primavera Sound, and Lollapalooza. The band also appeared at the Beale Street Music Festival in Memphis, Tennessee, and appeared alongside acts such as Beyoncé and Nine Inch Nails at the "Made in America" festival during Labor Day weekend in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

On 18 February 2013, the band released "Entertainment", the first single from the album. A music video for the song, directed by Patrick Daughters, was released on 7 March 2013. On 28 March, Phoenix started their 2013 tour in Vancouver, British Columbia, at the Queen Elizabeth Theatre and performed their first concert in two years—the show's set list included "Sunskrupt!", a song that combines "Bankrupt!" and "Love Like a Sunset". Phoenix performed on American television during the next month—on 6 April, Phoenix was the musical guest on Saturday Night Live and performed "Entertainment" and "Trying to Be Cool/Drakkar Noir"; on 18 April 2013, the band repeated the two-song set list on Jimmy Kimmel Live!.

On 22 April 2013, Phoenix played a London show at Shepherd's Bush Empire on the day that Bankrupt! was released. In a review of the performance, music writer Josh Holliday declared: "And along with peace, love and understanding, what the world needs now is a band we can all believe in as one. That band is Phoenix." On 6 May 2013, Phoenix were taped for the thirty-ninth season of live music television series Austin City Limits (ACL) at Moody Theatre in Austin, Texas. Terry Likona, executive producer of the show, announced that Phoenix would co-headline the two-weekend Austin City Limits Music Festival in October 2013, alongside other big acts such as Kings of Leon, Wilco, and Depeche Mode.

In media articles on Bankrupt! after the album's release, Mars provided insight into the circumstances that influenced the creation of the band's fifth album: "At that time, we started talking about success and not music. I guess it was time to protect ourselves and focus on music again." Mars made reference to the period of intensive public attention that occurred in the wake of the Grammy Award-winning Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix, Phoenix's first record to achieve gold certification.

Mars also reflected on the benefits of the band's belated success: "We're lucky that we didn't have a hit single for a while, so when we play live, people are not expecting just one song, and we don't tour as a greatest hits band, which can be sad, I'm sure." In a more general sense, Mars also emphasized the importance of the live setting for Phoenix and its relationship to studio work: "I guess we're perfectionists in the way that when we make an album, we know it's going to last. It's important that it's exactly how we want it to be. But when the record is done, it's all about imperfection. It's all about playing live."

Phoenix also used the Harrison 4032 solid-state recording console, the same console used on Michael Jackson's Thriller, to mix Bankrupt!. The console was purchased on eBay and shipped to Paris. Bankrupt! debuted at number 4 on the American Billboard 200 albums chart and a Phoenix world tour was completed over a large part of 2013.

Phoenix appeared in the 2015 Netflix special A Very Murray Christmas, directed by Mars' wife Sofia Coppola. The group performed a cover of The Beach Boys' "Alone on Christmas Day", with Bill Murray providing backing vocals.

Ti Amo (2016–2019)
In November 2016, Phoenix changed their social media themes to a television holding screen image. They also announced a series of festival appearances in Spain and France. On 4 January 2017, it was announced that they would be in a headlining spot at Governors Ball in New York City the first weekend of June, which would be their first show since 2014. In March they announced two warm-up shows on 22 and 23 April in Antwerp, Belgium.

On 1 March 2017, Phoenix again updated social media, teasing new music with a 30-second clip, and announcing multiple tour dates. By 24 April 2017, the band had announced that their sixth album, Ti Amo, would be released on 9 June 2017. Three days later, on 27 April 2017, the band released the album's first single, "J-Boy" (an acronym for "Just Because of You"). This was followed by the release of the title track, "Ti Amo", on 18 May 2017 and the single "Goodbye Soleil" on 2 June 2017, a week before the album's release. Phoenix toured worldwide to promote the release of Ti Amo.

The band performed residency shows in Paris, New York City, Los Angeles, Tokyo, and Mexico City titled, "A Very Speciale Night with Phoenix". It featured exclusive merchandise, Phoenix vending machine, gelato (food selection varied at shows), discoteca after party, live music, special guests, and Phoenix sake.

In 2017, Phoenix collaborated with Tatenokawa, Inc., a brewery from Yamagata Prefecture, Japan, as a tribute for their late friend Toshiro Kuroda, a Japanese restaurateur who ran a store in Paris called Workshop Isse which offered food and sake from Japan. This store was on the ground floor of Christian Mazzalai's apartment building, which is how he became friends with Kuroda. During the band's Japan tour while promoting Bankrupt!, Kuroda took the band to visit sake breweries in Japan, one of which was Tatenokawa, Inc.

Phoenix and Tatenokawa, Inc. created Phoenix Sake Collection, which features Tatenokawa Phoenix (also referred to as Rainbow Label) and Sparkling sake. The Sparking sake was created to commemorate the band's 20th anniversary. The collection also featured limited-edition brews: Tatenokawa Junmai Daiginjo, Kaze no Mori Junmai Daiginjo (from Nara Prefecture), and Sohomare Junmai Ginjo (from Tochigi Prefecture). The bottles were wrapped in a hand-dyed washcloth featuring illustrations of the band and sake logo. A portion of the sales were donated to the Japanese Red Cross.

In 2019, Phoenix released the biography Liberté, Egalité, Phoenix!, written by Laura Snapes.

Alpha Zulu (2020–present)
On 19 August 2020, the band released "Identical" for Sofia Coppola's film On the Rocks. It topped the Billboard Adult Alternative Airplay chart in November 2020.

Phoenix began recording their seventh album Alpha Zulu during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 at the Musée des Arts décoratifs, a studio located within the Louvre Palace in Paris. Brancowitz said the band "felt it would be a fantastic adventure to create something out of nothing", with Mazzalai revealing that they wrote "almost all" of Alpha Zulu within the first 10 days. The album was inspired by Philippe Zdar of the band Cassius, who produced three of Phoenix's albums and died in 2019.

On 27 May 2022, the band announced the lead single "Alpha Zulu", which was released on 1 June. "Alpha Zulu" topped the US Adult Alternative Airplay chart in August for two weeks. The band began the Alpha Zulu tour on 6 September in St. Paul, Minnesota. The next day, Phoenix released "Tonight" featuring Vampire Weekend's Ezra Koenig. It was the band’s first song with a guest vocalist. It would also top the US Adult Alternative Airplay chart, this time for seven weeks. The album Alpha Zulu was released on 4 November 2022. On 16 March 2023, Phoenix released a remix of "After Midnight" that featured American singer-songwriter Clairo.

Phoenix toured with Beck on the Summer Odyssey tour throughout August and September 2023, featuring stops such as the Kia Forum in Los Angeles, the Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Colorado and Madison Square Garden in New York City.

On 17 November 2023, Phoenix released a remix of "Artefact" that featured Mexican singer León Larregui.

Non-standard units
Humans have always been able to measure things even before the systemisation of measurement by comparing one item to another. This is still widely practiced today, although the comparisons obviously change. Some of these non-standard measurement units, sometimes found in books etc., include:
 * A ton of TNT, and its multiples the kiloton, the megaton and the gigaton. Often used in stating the power of very energetic events such as explosions and volcanic events and earthquakes and asteroid impacts. A gram of TNT as a unit of energy has been defined as 1000 thermochemical calories = roughly 4184 joules.
 * The Hiroshima atom bomb. Its force is often used in the public media and popular books as a unit of energy. (Its yield was roughly 13 kilotons.)
 * The weight of an elephant. It is often used as a unit of weight in popular books about very big animals such as dinosaurs. This unit needs to be defined, as the real weight of elephants varies much with age and sex and species.

Systems of measurement in the ancient world
Prior to the global adoption of the metric system many different systems of measurement had been in use. Many of these were related to some extent or other. Often they were based on the dimensions of the human body and were effectively a standardisation of previously used measures.

In the History of measurement many of the units that we have records of, or at least the ones that have been used in Europe and around the Mediterranean are variations on older systems originating in the Ancient Near East and Egypt.

Ancient systems of measurement

 * Mesopotamian
 * Egyptian Based on Mesopotamian, developed around 3000BC. Cubit was intl standard
 * Persian based on mesopotamian, first persian empire c650BC
 * Greek Derived from egyptian and Mesopotamian and Persian
 * Roman Based on Greek, also egyptian influences
 * Hebrew very similar to babylonian system. whatever that is.

Mediæval measurements
Medieval measures can be categorized by ever expanding commercial, political and religious spheres of influence.

Eastern European
In Eastern Europe traditional standards of measure were predominantly of Greek origin
 * Polish system
 * Romanian system
 * Russian system
 * Tatar system

Western and Northern European
In Western and Northern Europe traditional standards of measure were predominantly of Roman origin
 * Spanish system
 * French system
 * English system
 * Scottish system
 * Finnish system
 * Danish system
 * Norwegian system
 * Swedish system
 * German system
 * Dutch system

Unrelated Historical systems of measurement

 * The Arabic system developed from the Persian system.
 * Indus Valley developed c2600BC
 * Vedic Used in Vedic civilisation (began around 1000BC), still used today in Hinduism and Jainism
 * Chinese Used since 13thC BC, still used today, though adapted to fit metric system.
 * Japanese Developed from the Chinese System, officially adopted 701BC

Imperial and US customary units
Both the Imperial units and US customary units derive from earlier English units. Imperial units were mostly used in the British Commonwealth (Commonwealth of Nations) and the former British Empire. They are still used to some extent but have now been mostly replaced by the metric system. US customary units are the main system of measurement in the United States however some steps towards metrication have been made. The metric system is prefered in certain fields such as science, medicine and technology.

These two systems are closely related. Units of length and area (the inch, foot, yard, mile, acre, etc.) are identical except for surveying purposes. Units of mass and weight differ for units larger than a pound (lb). The Imperial system uses a stone of 14 lb., a long hundredweight of 112 lb. and a long ton of 2240 lb. The stone is not used in the US and the hundredweights and tons are short being 100 lb. and 2000 lb. respectively.

Where these systems most notably differ is in their respective units of volume. A US fluid ounce (fl. oz.) is slightly larger than its Imperial equivalent (the former being approximately 29.6 ml and the latter 28.4 ml). However, as there are 16 US fl. oz. to a US pint as opposed to the 20 Imperial fl. oz. per Imperial pint these pints are quite different in volume. The same is true of quarts, gallons, etc. Six US gallons are a little less than five Imperial gallons.

The metric system
Metric systems of units have evolved since the adoption of the first well-defined system in France in 1791. During this evolution the use of these systems spread throughout the world, first to the non-English-speaking countries, and more recently to the English speaking countries.

Multiples and submultiples of metric units are related by powers of ten; the names for these are formed with prefixes. This relationship is compatible with the decimal system of numbers and it contributes greatly to the convenience of metric units.

In the early metric system there were two fundamental or base units, the metre and the kilogram, for length and mass. The other units of length and mass, and all units of area, volume, and compound units such as density were derived from these two fundamental units.

Mesures usuelles (French for customary measurements) were a system of measurement introduced to act as compromise between the metric system and traditional measurements. It was used in France from 1812 to 1939. Similar proposals to metrify the English system of measurement have been put forth but never officially adopted.

A number of variations on the metric system have been in use. These include gravitational systems, the centimetre-gram-second systems (cgs) useful in science, the metre-tonne-second system (mts) once used in the USSR and the metre-kilogram-second system of units (mks) most commonly used today.

The current international standard metric system is the International System of Units (Système international d'unités or SI) It is an mks system based on the metre, kilogram and second as well as the Kelvin, Ampere, candela, and mole.

The SI includes two classes of units which are defined and agreed internationally. The first of these classes are the seven SI base units for length, mass, time, temperature, electric current, luminous intensity and amount of substance. The second of these are the SI derived units. These derived units are defined in terms of the seven base units. All other quantities (e.g. work, force, power) are expressed in terms of SI derived units.

Natural units
The above systems of units are based on arbitrary unit values, formalised as standards. Some unit values occur naturally in Science. Systems of units based on these are called Natural units. The following are examples of these system of natural units.

 * Planck units
 * Geometrized units

Atomic units
Atomic units (au) are a convenient system of units of measurement used in atomic physics, particularly for describing the properties of electrons. The atomic units have been chosen such that the fundamental electron properties are all equal to one atomic unit.

Currency
For main article see currency

A unit of measurement that applies to money is called a unit of account. This is normally a currency issued by a country or a fraction thereof. The most frequently used currencies in the world today are the US dollar (and US cent (1/100 of a dollar)) and the Euro (and Eurocent).

Kindrick Legion Field

Kindrick Legion Field is a baseball park located in Helena, Montana which serves as the home field of three American Legion teams: the Senators, Reps, and Independents. It was previously the home ballpark of the Helena Brewers Minor League Baseball team who left after the 2018 season. The stadium was built in 1932 and holds 2,100 people.

Formerly called Legion Park, and later Memorial Park Field, the name of the ballpark was changed in the mid-1970s to Kindrick Legion Field in honor of longtime American Legion supporter Ace Kindrick.

City officials are considering the best future use for the field after the departure of the Helena Brewers: continue with just American Legion ball or seek to add a team from the collegiate summer Expedition League.

Jeremy Coney

Jeremy Vernon Coney (born 21 June 1952) is a former New Zealand cricketer and current cricket commentator. An all-rounder, between 1974 and 1987 he played 52 Test matches and 88 One Day Internationals (ODIs) for New Zealand, of which he was captain in 15 Tests and 25 ODIs.

International career
Coney was one of New Zealand's most successful batsmen, at least by average, and he made 16 fifties, but centuries often eluded him and he had to wait nine years to make his first – by that time, he had turned 31. He only lost one Test series as captain, against Pakistan away, and he became a Wisden Cricketer of the Year in 1984.

Coney was the captain who in 1986, after the England wicketkeeper Bruce French was injured by a Hadlee bouncer, allowed Bob Taylor to leave the sponsor's tent and play as a substitute. New Zealand won that series with the bowling of Richard Hadlee only slightly more potent than the captaincy of Coney. His medium-pace bowling was often used in ODIs, where it yielded 54 wickets, including four for 46 against Sri Lanka in 1985.

Beyond cricket
During his playing days, Coney's height, reach, and reactions as a slip fieldsman, earned him the nickname "The Mantis". He wrote Playing Mantis: An Autobiography in 1986. Along with John Parker and Bryan Waddle, he wrote The Wonderful Days of Summer in 1993.

In the 1986 Queen's Birthday Honours, Coney was appointed a Member of the Order of the British Empire, for services to cricket. In 1990, he was awarded the New Zealand 1990 Commemoration Medal.

In 2001 he made a television documentary series, The Mantis and the Cricket: Tales from the Tours, which looked back on New Zealand's cricket history, using interviews with former players and historical footage. The first part follows the 1937 New Zealand Cricket team which toured England with interviews of Walter Hadlee, Merv Wallace, Jack Kerr and Lindsay Weir.

He now lives in south Oxfordshire and works as a commentator/summariser for Sky TV and Test Match Special, where he is noted for his regular use of the word "parsimonious". Coney is trained as a stage lighting designer; in 2008 he lit I Found My Horn, a solo play which has enjoyed runs at the Tristan Bates and the Hampstead theatres.

Chad Oliver

Symmes Chadwick Oliver (30 March 1928 – 9 August 1993) was an American anthropologist and science fiction and Western writer. He was born in Cincinnati, Ohio. His father was a surgeon and his mother a nurse. When he was young he had rheumatic fever and as a result spent considerable time at home, a time during which he became interested in science fiction. He spent most of his life in Austin, Texas where he was twice chairman of the department of anthropology of the University of Texas. He was also one of the founders of the Turkey City Writer's Workshop. He first attended the university in 1946 as a student and, apart from a brief sojourn to UCLA to obtain his Ph.D., he remained there in some capacity until his death, 47 years later.

He first had a story published in 1950. His science fiction is generally classified as anthropological science fiction because he often used insights from his professional work to inform his fictional writing.

An avid fly fisherman, Professor Oliver supported the Guadalupe River Chapter of Trout Unlimited and the cold water fishery downstream from Canyon Dam. Numerous scenes in his writings made reference to actions and experiences related to fishing in moving water (e.g. wading a river in "Shores of Another Sea").

Mike Lansing Field

Mike Lansing Field is a stadium in Casper, Wyoming. It is primarily used for baseball. It was the home field of the Casper Ghosts minor league baseball team from 2002 to 2011, of the Casper Cutthroats summer-collegiate baseball team from 2012 to 2014, and of the Casper Horseheads of Independence League Baseball from 2018 to 2022. It is home to the Casper Oilers American Legion Baseball team, and the Casper Spuds of Independence League Baseball. It was built in 2002 and holds 2,500 people. The field is named after Wyoming native and former Major League second baseman Mike Lansing. A career .271 hitter, Lansing played nine years in the majors for the Montreal Expos, Colorado Rockies and Boston Red Sox.

Lansing Field was one of the ten ballparks included in a 2010 USA Today article about "10 great places for a baseball pilgrimage", which noted the highly "intimate" character of the park due to its unusual combination of a small grandstand and surrounding "wide-open space" at its location on the banks of the North Platte River. The ballpark's souvenir shop was known to visiting baseball fans for sales of the team's unusual glow-in-the-dark cap. Mike Lansing Field replaced a sports complex/park known locally as Crossroads. It is located just south of the Casper Events Center across Poplar Street from the Casper Planetarium.

Ruby Tuesday (song)

"Ruby Tuesday" is a song by English rock band the Rolling Stones, released in January 1967. The song became the band's fourth number-one hit in the United States and reached number three in the United Kingdom as a double A-side with "Let's Spend the Night Together". The song was included in the American version of Between the Buttons (in the UK, singles were often excluded from studio albums).

Rolling Stone magazine ranked the song number 310 on their list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time.

Composition and recording
The Rolling Stones recorded "Ruby Tuesday" around November 1966 at Olympic Studios, during the sessions for their album Between the Buttons. The song was produced by Andrew Loog Oldham. Brian Jones plays a countermelody on an alto recorder, while the double bass was played jointly by bassist Bill Wyman and guitarist Keith Richards; Wyman did the fingerings while Richards bowed the instrument.

Richards explained that the lyrics are about Linda Keith, his girlfriend in the mid-1960s:

"That's a wonderful song," Mick Jagger told Jann Wenner in 1995. "It's just a nice melody, really. And a lovely lyric. Neither of which I wrote, but I always enjoy singing it." Wyman states in Rolling with the Stones that the lyrics were completely written by Richards with help from Jones on the musical composition. However, Marianne Faithfull recalls it differently; according to her, Jones presented an early version of this melody to the rest of the Rolling Stones. According to Victor Bockris, Richards came up with the basic track and the words and finished the song with Jones in the studio.

Cash Box described the single as a "smooth ballad a la baroque."

Release
"Ruby Tuesday" was released as the B-side to "Let's Spend the Night Together" in January 1967. Due to the controversial nature of the A-side's lyrics, "Ruby Tuesday" earned more airplay and ended up charting higher in the US. The song topped the American Billboard Hot 100 chart, while reaching number three in the UK's Record Retailer chart, which listed "Let's Spend The Night Together"/"Ruby Tuesday" as a double A-side.

"Ruby Tuesday" was included on the US version of the 1967 album Between the Buttons, while being left out of the British edition, as was common practice with singles in the UK at that time. That summer, the song appeared on the US compilation album Flowers. Due to its success, the song became a staple of the band's compilations, being included on Through the Past, Darkly (Big Hits Vol. 2) (1969), Hot Rocks 1964–1971 (1971), Rolled Gold (1975), and 30 Greatest Hits (1977), and, in mono, on Singles Collection: The London Years (1989).

Personnel
According to authors Philippe Margotin and Jean-Michel Guesdon, except where noted:

The Rolling Stones
 * Mick Jagger – vocals, tambourine
 * Keith Richards – acoustic guitar, double bass (bowing)
 * Brian Jones – alto recorder, backing vocals, piano
 * Bill Wyman – double bass (fingering), bass guitar
 * Charlie Watts – drums

Additional musician
 * Jack Nitzsche – piano

Live version
"Ruby Tuesday" was first played live on Brian Jones' last concert tour The Rolling Stones European Tour 1967. The next time was on the Steel Wheels/Urban Jungle Tour in 1989/1990. A concert rendition from this tour was featured on the band's 1991 live album Flashpoint and released as a single. This live version was recorded in Japan in 1990 and can be seen on the video release Live at the Tokyo Dome. The B-side was "Play with Fire (live)" recorded in 1989 but not included on the Flashpoint album.
