MAY I KNOW WHY DID YOU DELETED OUR PAGE HERE IN WIKIPEDIA. THANKS!

Help desk
Hi Cyrius.

Do be careful not to bite the newbies when you're on the Help Desk. If you're going to get annoyed by silly questions, it's probably best to stay away entirely. To take the Esperanto question as an example, you might be better off phrasing your future replies as suggestions ("Try asking over at Wikipedia talk:Babel") rather than insinuations of incompetence ("Why didn't you try Wikipedia talk:Babel?") Implying that the editor in question is "silly" for not knowing to ask on the talk page there, or being unfamiliar with how policies, templates, and wikiprojects are created is also a tad harsh.

The editor in question did do the right thing—he wasn't sure how to go about something, and he asked for help at the Help Desk. TenOfAllTrades(talk) 16:44, 28 July 2005 (UTC)

 * No worries, just try to use a light hand at the Help Desk. TenOfAllTrades(talk) 18:23, 28 July 2005 (UTC)

Current drafts
What do you think of the two drafts I have at User:Golbez/sandbox? The colors still need some fiddling with. I was working with Draft 4 (w/o names) until I realized how iffy that got in pre-1978 lists, so I tried out Draft 5 with names, and it looks like it could be useful. Any comments? And does this appear to be at all useful? --Golbez 22:22, July 29, 2005 (UTC)

Hurricane season article updates
I've been updating your user page on the sentence where it says: 'Wikipedia has a little something on every season back to ____' so that it displays the latest year. You're okay with that, right?

Signpost spam
My apologies for the impersonal message, but you are one of a number of people who figure in recent events surrounding the deletion of VfD, a story about which will be in the upcoming The Wikipedia Signpost. A draft of the story is at User:Michael Snow/Deletion deletion. Please feel free to review it and point out any inaccuracies or misrepresentations you find. I would ask that rather than editing the story directly, if you could please direct any comments to the talk page. Thank you. --Michael Snow 23:33, 7 August 2005 (UTC)

ASINs
Hi, Cyrius. Sorry to bother you if you don't care about this...

You commented on the little WP:VIP fracas I had over deleting ASINs; I'm trying to start a discussion about this. If you have any particular opinions about it, could you note them at User:Shimgray/ASIN? I'm hoping the community can figure out what to do about this. Thanks, Shimgray 01:20, 9 August 2005 (UTC)

Hi Cyrius, just wanted to report ome vandalism going on at Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/Ancient empires and their roles. Someone changing delete votes to keep votes. Thanks! Hamster Sandwich 21:16, 9 August 2005 (UTC)

Texas template
I appologize ahead for clogging up your talk page with this.

Recently, User:Ed g2s keeps on changing the Texas template to a plain version and won't explain why. I need you guys to support me to keep the Texas template that has been active.

Templates removed for space by Cyrius.

I want you guys to have some input and decide which one is best for Texas. Like I said, I support the colorful template, but Ed g2s has been reverting it without explaination and has threatened to block me if I revert again to the colorful one. I think the colorful one is more aesthetic looking. Ed g2s doesn't seem to think so and keeps on erasing it to a plain version. Also, he's not even from Texas, he's from the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. Let's have a vote on this on Template talk:Texas. Thank you for everyone's time. – UH Collegian 19:41, 10 August 2005 (UTC)

Ain't that the truth?
Man, is it ever good to hear from you! Missed you!!! Jeez, I've had this adminship only a few days. I've read the guidelines, tried to follow the examples of other admins and look what I get for my trouble. I never even heard of NoPuzzleStranger before last week. Anyway, it's nice to hear from you again. I may need to bend your ear so as not to make these errors again. - Lucky 6.9 01:08, 13 August 2005 (UTC)

You're right. New kid in the corner office, I guess. See, I was going by the "extremely short articles without content" criterion. Is there something I'm missing here? Is this such a big deal? We've spent more time arguing over a few keystrokes than the people who made them spent in the first place. Also, if this continues with that certain user I mentioned, I may consider an RfC. I don't mind a little extra scrutiny, but I don't like smarmy comments. BTW, thanks for sticking up for me. - Lucky 6.9 01:32, 13 August 2005 (UTC)

Images for Sorcerer Hunters
Ive been working on the Sorcerer Hunters article for some time, its my pet project and I want to improve it.

I was wondering about Images, if I get somone to scan the cover of one of the books, may I post it? And if so, what notes would I need to add? Im very confused on this...

Your user page
Cyrius, someone did something weird to your user page. I had to do a manual revert, because Wikipedia refuses to show me a diff page for it. Very strange.... Func( t, c, @,) 17:08, 18 August 2005 (UTC)

My apoligies on the protection, Cyrius. Someone was going after you in a big way. Func( t, c, @,) 02:17, 19 August 2005 (UTC)

Another User has twice deleted your vote on Votes for deletion/Star Trek and pedophilia. The first time I reverted and warned him, the second time I reverted and blocked him for 24 hours. You may want to keep track of what's going on there. Zoe 04:18, August 21, 2005 (UTC)

Another anon User has now come along and reverted three other VfD votes of yours -- specifically just yours. You should check your recent votes and verify they haven't been vandalized. Zoe 08:35, August 21, 2005 (UTC)

Dangerous Predictions
I was cruising along and happened over to User talk:E. Brown and noticed you comments several months ago about what would be a "perfect storm". You know, sometimes being right can be scary.

take care of your use of completly inapropriate
thanks Tobias Conradi (Talk) 20:17, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

furthermore I think you used admin power in this conflict. This probably was ok. But from now on don't do this. All references in the language pages that Netoholic touched against the will of the mayor editors of the true infobox are now restored. So his private template is not in use in any article anymore. Plz tell Netoholic what talk page are for and not me. Tobias Conradi (Talk) 20:21, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

youu arrogant guy. What gives you the right to abuse your amdmin power here? Tobias Conradi (Talk) 20:28, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

Tobias Conradi (Talk) 20:31, 6 January 2006 (UTC)
 * you did not answer the question
 * i did not attack another user

 * you still did not answer the question to what gives you the right to abuse your admin powers. Tobias Conradi (Talk) 20:41, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

Stop abusing your admin power
Tobias Conradi (Talk) 20:29, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

you help the view of one party = and you use your admin rights to do so. i.e. you abuse it. Why did you move it back, now that there are no article refs? if dab does not belong here, than fine, make it a redirect to the true template not to the private version of one user. Tobias Conradi (Talk) 20:37, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

you received your admin rights to work for the community, for consensuses. Not to work for what you think is nice. Tobias Conradi (Talk) 20:39, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

I told you it could be a redirect if dab is inapropriate. BTW you could have told this in the first place that dab in template space is inapropriate in your opinion. Why did you engage on the side of Netoholic? Tobias Conradi (Talk) 20:47, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

Let the template be moved to XYZ_new or XYZ_css. We had a discussion about moving Template:Language to Template:Infobox Language - a more standard name. Then Netoholic stepped in and created his version in hidden and also introducing it in several pages. In the long run he wanted to delete the original template thus deleting all edit history. Now I cannot move to XYZ_new -> because you abuse your admin power, i.e. you use it without any vote by the community about moving back. Tobias Conradi (Talk)

the dab thing is settled. so what? BTW if you think dab is silly it is your point of view - is there any policy? a part from dab, why do you block the redirect solution? Of course you act on the side of Netoholic, unwanted or wanted. He made very anoying edits in lots of language articles. He can play in his user space or with the XYZ_new but not with what would be the standard name for the language infobox. Now this is blocking the move of the true template to the standard name. Tobias Conradi (Talk) 20:58, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

replace true by whatever you want. you know which template I am refering to. So here is the text for you again. From only pointing to my mistakes I see you are not really open to the possibilty you made mistakes. maybe concentrate on your abuse. So here the text:

Did you prevent Template:Infobox Language from beeing moved, after you moved it the seceond time? If so, by which rule? Tobias Conradi (Talk) 15:39, 7 January 2006 (UTC)

Template:Infobox Language issues
Hi, Cyrius! Tobias Conradi informally asked me to mediate the issues surrounding the (Infobox) (L/l)anguage template. I agreed to look into the matter, and so far compiled a brief summary, available here. If you could review it and leave a comment if necessary, that'd be much appreciated. Thanks!—Ëzhiki (erinaceus amurensis) 20:26, 9 January 2006 (UTC)

Thank you Cyrius, I see what you mean. Tobias agreed to file a WP:RM for the template, so I trust he will no longer attempt to move the template himself until that goes (or does not go) through; and definitely not until we discuss the whole situation (here or elsewhere). Do you mind unprotecting it for now? I can, of course, do it myself, but I think it'll only be fair to let you do it. Again, thanks.—Ëzhiki (erinaceus amurensis) 20:48, 9 January 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for providing your comments. I drafted a proposed solution for you and other involved parties to review. If you accept it, please indicate so below the proposed solution section. If you do not, please explain your grievances there. Thank you!—Ëzhiki (erinaceus amurensis) 16:37, 10 January 2006 (UTC)

Votes for Deletion - Clock Crew
As an experienced member of the Internet Community, having owned a computer for over 9 years, and frequently hopping between hundreds of various internet communities, sites and forums over the years, I would say that the Clock Crew is indeed notable on the popular flash portal, Newgrounds.com. While, you may have never been to the website, or have ever even heard of it, knowing that you are apparently an old goon and a huge bureacratic jerk - you fail to realize that in fact - yes - in fact - that the Internet has a culture of it's own indepedent of whatever Classical music or balets that you listen to or watch. In fact, I'd testify that "All your base are belong to us" is millions times more hilarious than "[The Importance of Being Earnest]]" - And probably more culturally significant.

Newgrounds.com is a significant staple of that culture, and is one of the most popular flash websites on the Internet for original flash submissions and content - especially with younger kids and teens. Thus their slogan - "Problems of the Future, Today!".

Here is the one of the two sole Keep (and the only sensible vote mind you!) vote, written by an unknown user, I can't find his IP from the history pages of the delete page.

''* Keep: Anyone been to ClockCrew.net recently? The Clock Crew is still very much alive and it has always been a phenomenon. Considering there are still Clocks posting on Newgrounds today, that the Clocks have influenced the creation of many groups and crazes, and that Wikipedia has documented far lesser known fads, I think this is a piece of history that should remain in the archives.''

Wikipedia should be used a little more constructively, not destructively. It's always - always - debatable as to what is important and isn't. And I think that the Wikipedia audience and authorship is skewed more towards the academic/nerd crowd, so therefore, they're going to biased with all their professionalism bullshit, no? And I think that the essence of this very bullshit is why you guys swiftly declared by democracy the destruction of this page.

Hey, who needs book-burning?!?!?! We can vote out the books from our libraries!!!! This is a swift request to bring back the article in question, openly adressed to all who voted to delete the article. Reply to me on my talk page.--Mofomojo 03:26, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

Ok, I'll admit the photo's for batson I thought I could use under fair use, but the site I set up for Vicksburg Fire Department was all me. I've been working on the VFD for 17 years and I have intimate knowledge of all the workings of the dept. and all the photo's were taken by me.....so why would you delete it?

And about Blair E. Batson, should I take a few photos of my own and state the same facts in my own words? I work there also by the way. Help me understand. thanks, Majorjc 03:11, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

Ok, I put the copyright statement on Talk:Vicksburg Fire Department and I also put one on Talk:Blair E. Batson Hospital for Children.

I am no wikipedia guru. and I dont' know how to contact yyou.

you deleted this artice:

Lemme tell you. Your job shoul dbe to improve the articles, not delete them. This article did not have formatting, so you should have done it. There is less matter, the matter would increase once people start contributing to it. This Game called "A3" is highly popular only in Asian countries. For us its 1000 times better than crappy World of Warcraft. None of us does have high wiki skills to edit all the way to the perfection.

Only is the article is there we can perfect out with time.

But you blatantly deleted the article!!

Stop playing God!!

Deleting pictures
A large portion of your contributions appear to be deleting fair-use pictures. Of what use is it to remove, say, the only picture of a cover of a newspaper on an article about the newspaper? Or the only picture of a telescope on an article on the telescope? As a reader of articles, I would not consider it an improvement to remove pictures with no replacements. --Merceris 21:39, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

Is the cover picture on New york times permissable? How is this different that what you removed? How would removing all copyrighted images of the New York Times improve the article? How can the images be retrieved from deletion since only admins can do that? --Merceris 23:40, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

Please restore the picture removed from AsianWeek. The use of a cover picture is similar to that used with New York Times "Cover art: Cover art from various items, for identification and critical commentary (not for identification without critical commentary). --Merceris 01:55, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

question about where to post an idea....
Hi,

I am sorry to bother you, but I don't really understand the posting etiquette, and I would like to post my idea/request. I checked in the pump section, and didn't see it there anywhere.

I think it would only be one line of code to check 'talk' submissions to make sure they have the 4 tildas at the end, and if not then add them. The reason I request that is that there have been times where I would like to go to someone's talk page and either give them a lead about a question they asked, or ask a question that may only partially pertain to the original post, but they didn't sign it! So I can't find out who it is. When that happens the only option is to post there, and if it isn't particularly relivant, I don't want to do that:)

What do you think? And where/how should I put that request?

thanks -isabelle Isabelle Hakala 04:39, 19 April 2007 (UTC)

Thanks
Hi, I wanted to thank you for your work on the New London School explosion article, where you covered a tragical subject efficiently and well. Your turns of prose are ornate yet appropriate, which is a pleasure to see. Of course there's something wrong with me since you did said work in 2005, but what the hell. --Kizor 19:23, 21 April 2007 (UTC)

Update: I delted my IP if that is Okay with you guys. Anyways Pat battle is a very popular person in the NY area and I can't see the harm of it being on Wikipedia?

 * Delete. NN.  44 Google hits.  No claim to notablilty in article, other than he's on TV and has a funny name.  --A D Monroe III 03:18, 22 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Week Keep This needs a wickedly major clean up. The Opie and Anthony radio program is national, so perhaps some Opie and Anthony fan, assuming they have the IQ to work a computer, get on the internet, and find Wikipedia would want to try and figure out who this Pat Battle is. FunkyChicken! 03:28, July 22, 2005 (UTC)
 * Change vote to Keep as it was cleaned up a majorly and due to the fact that she won an Emmy. FunkyChicken! 05:57, July 22, 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep if notable in NYC and environs. Kappa 03:57, 22 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep I have edited the article into something coherent and Wikipedia-like, categorized it and stubbed it. This will give those radio listeners who don't know who she is context, and TV viewers throughout the Americas who watch WNBC some biographical information which has the potential to be added to later. NYTVGuy 04:00, 22 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. The edit by NYTVGuy looks good. Further expansion would, of course, look even better. Aerion//talk 04:34, 22 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep The article is not the same when it was started and has improved greatly. I have crossed paths with Pat a few times professionally and she is one of the best reporters out there by covering her beat very well. Plus she is a very nice person and has great on-air skills, as evidenced recently when she was hounded by some Opie and Anthony fans while doing a stand-up live shot in New Jersey. She is one of the better anchors and reporters in the entire NYC/NJ area and she got an Emmy this year! Now off to add some stuff to the article! UncleFloyd 04:36, 22 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. Winning a New York Emmy makes her notable enough for mine. Capitalistroadster 05:04, 22 July 2005 (UTC)

 * Comment She is not in Bumblesnort, Montana, she is in New York which is the biggest televison market in the country. Her station is also seen in many places outside of New York, including Latin America, the Carribean, and in places in the US there is no NBC affiliate. Plus she is a person referenced on a national radio show, so that means she has more notablity than ths sports guy from Bumblesnort. NYTVGuy 15:39, 22 July 2005 (UTC)

Ehjeh Ascher Ehjeh

Ehjeh Ascher Ehjeh (Hebrew: אהיה אשר אהיה; "I am that I am") is the first EP by Sopor Aeternus & the Ensemble of Shadows, and was released in 1995 as a companion to the album Todeswunsch - Sous le soleil de Saturne. Only 3,000 copies were pressed. The title of the EP is the response God gave to Moses when He was asked for His name, as seen in the Bible (Exodus 3:14.) The cover painting is a detail of Saint Jerome Writing by Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio.

The EP contains three songs featured on Todeswunsch - Sous le soleil de Saturne stripped of their backing tracks, bookended by the new song "anima" and a demo recording of "Tanz der Grausamkeit". "anima" began the recurring theme of sexual re-orientation in Anna-Varney Cantodea's lyrics, evident in the concluding line: "My true self is female how could I ever doubt..."

Ehjeh Ascher Ehjeh was re-released alongside Voyager - The Jugglers of Jusa and the demo tape Es reiten die Toten so schnell... for the first time as part of the rarities box set Like a Corpse Standing in Desperation, due to costly prices for cheap copies of the EP sold on eBay.

Harry Dexter White
Hi Roger. It's important to remember that no one at Wikipedia has ownership of an article; it's a public encyclopedia that anyone can edit; if you dislike having articles you have contributed to edited mercilessly, you may not enjoy yourself here. With that being said, you have every right to dispute information you feel is inaccurate in an article. Also, you should really add new text to talk pages at the bottom of the page, not the top. People will expect new comments to be added at the bottom; noone is likely to see your comment way up here. Also, when making comments please sign them by typing four tildes ~. It makes it a lot easier to sort out who's said what. · Katefan0(scribble) 02:10, July 22, 2005 (UTC)

Dissociated press

Dissociated press is a parody generator (a computer program that generates nonsensical text). The generated text is based on another text using the Markov chain technique. The name is a play on "Associated Press" and the psychological term dissociation (although word salad is more typical of conditions like aphasia and schizophrenia – which is, however, frequently confused with dissociative identity disorder by laypeople).

An implementation of the algorithm is available in Emacs. Another implementation is available as a Perl module in CPAN, Games::Dissociate.

The algorithm
The algorithm starts by printing a number of consecutive words (or letters) from the source text. Then it searches the source text for an occurrence of the few last words or letters printed out so far. If multiple occurrences are found, it picks a random one, and proceeds with printing the text following the chosen occurrence. After a predetermined length of text is printed out, the search procedure is repeated for the newly printed ending.

Considering that words and phrases tend to appear in specific grammatical contexts, the resulting text usually seems correct grammatically, and if the source text is uniform in style, the result appears to be of similar style and subject, and takes some effort on the reader's side to recognize as not genuine. Still, the randomness of the assembly process deprives it of any logical flow - the loosely related parts are connected in a nonsensical way, creating a humorously abstract, random result.

Examples
Here is a short example of word-based Dissociated Press applied to the Jargon File:
 * wart: n. A small, crocky feature that sticks out of an array (C has no checks for this). This is relatively benign and easy to spot if the phrase is bent so as to be not worth paying attention to the medium in question.

Here is a short example of letter-based Dissociated Press applied to the same source:
 * window sysIWYG: n. A bit was named aften /bee´t@/ prefer to use the other guy's re, especially in every cast a chuckle on neithout getting into useful informash speech makes removing a featuring a move or usage actual abstractionsidered interj. Indeed spectace logic or problem!

History
The dissociated press algorithm is described in HAKMEM (1972) Item #176. The name "dissociated press" is first known to have been associated with the Emacs implementation.

Brian Hayes discussed a Travesty algorithm in Scientific American in November 1983. The article provided a garbled William Faulkner passage: "When he got on the table, he come in. He never come out of my own pocket as a measure of protecting the company against riot and bloodshed. And when he said. 'You tell me a bus ticket, let alone write out no case histories. Then the law come back with a knife!'"

Hugh Kenner and Joseph O'Rourke of Johns Hopkins University discussed their frequency table-based Travesty generator for microcomputers in BYTE in November 1984. The article included the Turbo Pascal source for two versions of the generator, one using Hayes' algorithm and another using Claude Shannon's Hellbat algorithm. Murray Lesser offered a compiled BASIC version in the magazine in July 1985, in September 1985 Peter Wayner offered a version that used tree data structures instead of frequency tables, and in December 1985 Neil J. Rubenking offered a version written in Turbo Pascal that stored frequency information in a B-tree.

Jackie Wright

John Wright (24 September 1904 – 11 January 1989), credited professionally as Jackie Wright, also nicknamed Little Jackie and Uncle Jackie, was a Northern Irish comedian.

He is best known for being the bald-headed sidekick of Benny Hill on his television programme for fifteen years. Wright's diminutive stature – he was only 4 ft tall – and Northern Irish accent became assets to the comedy.

Biography
Born in Belfast, the eighth of twelve children born to George and Agnes ( Finlay) Wright, Jackie first worked as a car body assembler, even working in the United States for Cadillac. In the early 1930s, when the Great Depression took hold, Wright returned to Belfast and then began working in the field of entertainment, first as a musician and then as a supporting comedian.

He did not enter television until the 1960s, when Hill discovered him and persuaded him to join his troupe. At the time, Hill was ending his stint with the BBC, and starting a 20-year relationship with Thames Television. Hill usually referred to him as "Little Jackie" or "our little Donny Osmond" on the programme. In many of the show's trademark accelerated-motion scenes, Hill would often pat Wright's bald head rapidly, the motion being accompanied by dubbed-in smacking sounds. Actress Suzy Mandel claimed that "Jackie Wright was a chain smoker and he would often hide his cigarette in his mouth or behind his back during scenes. In fact, you could often see a little plume of smoke rising behind him if you looked close enough. Benny would slap his head to fan the smoke away."

Wright also appeared on the short-lived 1973 programme Whoops Baghdad starring Frankie Howerd, and had a small role in the musical comedy film Three for All in 1975. He gained a cult following when edited-down versions of the Benny Hill programmes began airing in syndication in the US in the late 1970s.

Death
Wright left the show in 1983 owing to poor health, although previously unaired footage of him in sketches filmed in previous years was incorporated into new Benny Hill shows up to 1985. Five and a half years later, he died at the age of 84 in a Belfast hospital after battling a long, undisclosed illness. At the time of his death, Benny Hill remarked, "He was a lovely little fella... I'm saddened beyond words."

Walter Aston, 1st Lord Aston of Forfar

Walter Aston, 1st Lord Aston of Forfar KB (baptised 9 July 1584 – 13 August 1639) was an English courtier and diplomat.

Life
Aston was born in Staffordshire, England, about 1584; he was a son of Sir Edward Aston of Tixall and his second wife Anne Lucy Barnes of Charlecote Park, daughter of Sir Thomas Lucy.

Upon his father's death on 1 February 1597, Edward Coke, the Attorney General, was appointed his guardian, by Lord Burghley, master of the Court of Wards.

In 1603, at the coronation of King James I of England, Aston was created a Knight of the Bath at which Michael Drayton the poet acted as his esquire (Aston had become his patron and, between 1602 and 1607, Drayton dedicated five of his works to Sir Walter). In 1611, after paying a fee of £1095, Sir Walter was created Baronet of Tixall. In 1618, he was appointed steward of the honour of Tutbury by James I.

In 1622, Sir Walter was sent to Madrid as the resident ambassador to the Spanish court to negotiate a marriage between Charles, the Prince of Wales, and the Infanta Maria Anna of Spain and also provisions for joint naval operations to patrol and suppress piracy.

The Prince of Wales (the future Charles I of England), accompanied by the Duke of Buckingham, arrived at the Spanish court in 1623 unannounced: his overtures to the Infanta were rejected and so the marriage proposal fell through.

Despite the failure of Aston's mission, for his good service to Charles (in opposing the opinions of the ambassador John, Earl of Bristol), Charles was grateful to him and once he became King helped Sir Walter both socially and financially. Charles pardoned Sir Walter for recusancy (while in Spain he had converted to Catholicism in 1623): this allowed him to serve in local government and in 1631 he was made a commissioner for Warwickshire to enforce a fine upon gentry who failed to appear at Charles's coronation to receive a knighthood. Sir Walter claimed that his expenses in Spain had been ruinous, and cost him £14,000. To make amends Charles arranged that he be elevated to the Scottish peerage on 28 November 1627, as Baron Forfar in county Angus, and gave him a bond of £1000 to buy land in Scotland. Charles also appointed him "keeper of the king's mulberry garden" at St James's with an annual income of £60. He also arranged an annual pension of £50 for Sir Walter and the same for his wife. Just over a year later in December 1628 "a warrant was issued to prepare a bill for a privy seal to pay out of the exchequer £14,000 to cancel his debt".

This largesse did not totally satisfy Lord Forfar who grumbled to Secretary Conway that it would have been better if the barony had been in recognition of "the ancient house of Tixall".

Lord Forfar returned as envoy to Spain in 1636, and although the dispute over the restoration of the Palatinate to the new Elector Palatine (the Winter King having died) remained intractable, Lord Forfar gave assistance to twenty-seven lawsuits involving English merchants in Spanish courts. His health failed, and he returned to England in the spring (March–May) 1638, but did not recover and died on 13 August 1639. He was buried in St Mary's Church, Stafford. He was succeeded by his son Walter Aston, 2nd Lord Aston of Forfar.

Family
Walter Aston's father died in 1597, leaving him with Attorney-General Sir Edward Coke as his legal guardian. Aston married Anne Barnes in 1600 without his guardian's permission; Coke subsequently had the marriage dissolved.

In 1607 Coke gave permission for Aston to marry Gertrude Sadler (b. c. 1582-7), only daughter of Sir Thomas Sadler of Standon and his second wife Gertrude Markham; Gertrude was the granddaughter of the leading Elizabethan statesman Sir Ralph Sadler. They had several children:
 * Walter, who died in infancy.
 * Walter, who became the 2nd Lord Aston. The Astons were Roman Catholic, and Walter's son and grandson practised that faith with little attempt at concealment during the worst severities of the Penal Laws, and even during the Popish Plot hysteria.
 * Herbert, baptised at Chelsea, 16 January 1614, married Catherine, sister of Sir John Thimbleby, of Ingham, Lincolnshire, and was buried at Colton, in Staffordshire, 9 January 1689, at 75.
 * John, who died in infancy.
 * Thomas, who died in infancy.
 * Gertrude, who died in infancy.
 * Honor, baptised at Tottenham, 17 July 1610, died at Vittoria, Spain, during her father's embassy, and was buried at St. Martin's-in-the-Fields, London.
 * Frances, baptised at Chelsea, 16 April 1612, married Sir William Peshall, of Canwell in Staffordshire.

Exhaustion of remedies

The doctrine of exhaustion of remedies prevents a litigant from seeking a remedy in a new court or jurisdiction until all claims or remedies have been exhausted (pursued as fully as possible) in the original one. The doctrine was originally created by case law based on the principles of comity.

In the United States, exhaustion of remedies is applied extensively in administrative law. Many cases are handled first by independent agencies of the United States government which have primary responsibility for cases involving the statutes or regulations which the agency administers.

A person's specific rights and duties depend on the federal statute involved, but here is an outline of how the doctrine works in practice. "Exhaustion of administrative remedies" requires a person to first go to the agency which administers the statute; this process usually involves filing a petition, then going to a hearing, and finally using the agency's internal appeal process. Once the agency's own procedures are finished, or "exhausted", then the aggrieved person can file a complaint in a federal court. But the doctrine of exhaustion of remedies prevents parties from seeking relief in the courts first.

The same process is required under the laws of many, if not all, states.

Exhaustion of remedies frequently affects cases of habeas corpus. Federal law, for example, prevents a petitioner from seeking federal relief where the state claims have not yet been exhausted. Generally, the exhaustion requirement permits state courts a "...meaningful opportunity to consider the allegations of legal error."

The issue of exhaustion of remedies in a criminal law case was before the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit in Harvey v. Horan.

Walter Aston, 2nd Lord Aston of Forfar

Walter Aston, 2nd Lord Aston of Forfar (6 April 1609 – 23 April 1678) was the second and eldest surviving son of Walter Aston, 1st Lord Aston of Forfar, and Gertrude Sadleir, daughter of Sir Thomas Sadleir of Standon, Hertfordshire, and his second wife Gertrude Markham. Lady Aston was the granddaughter of the noted Elizabethan statesman Sir Ralph Sadler.

Biography
In 1639, he succeeded his father as Lord Aston of Forfar in the peerage of Scotland, and, in 1661, at the death of his maternal uncle Ralph Sadleir, he inherited the lordship of Standon and other estates in Hertfordshire, England. His principal seat was Tixall in Staffordshire.

Lord Aston was a staunch Royalist during the English Civil War. He was present at the Siege of Lichfield in 1643 and the surrender of Oxford; King Charles I expressed his regret at not being able to reward him as he deserved. After the failure of the Royalist cause, he was required to compound his estates and live in private.

He married, in 1629, to Lady Mary Weston, daughter of Richard Weston, 1st Earl of Portland, Lord High Treasurer of England, and his first wife Elizabeth Pyncheon. He was an ardent Roman Catholic (his father was a convert to Catholicism who raised all his children in that faith, and his father-in-law was also a Catholic convert) and was the effective leader of the large Catholic community in Staffordshire, although he was unwilling to admit his faith publicly. When he was charged with recusancy in 1675 he wrote indignantly (and quite untruthfully) to the Secretary of State stating that "he never went to Mass or joined in any worship particular to the Church of Rome ". He also stated that the local Justices of the Peace, "my eminent neighbours", all assured him that they had no suspicions as to his faith "and that I was no such man". No further action was taken against him.

"The munificent Lord Aston" was extremely popular locally, and a thousand mourners are said to have attended his funeral: it is notable that no attempt was made to conceal the celebration of Catholic rites at the funeral, even though many of the mourners must have been Protestants. He died on 23 April 1678, and was succeeded by his eldest son Walter Aston, 3rd Lord Aston of Forfar, who inherited his father's role as protector of the Staffordshire Catholic community, and narrowly avoided becoming one of the martyrs of the Popish Plot, as did his younger brother, William. Kenyon p.157

He was buried at St. Mary's Church, Stafford. His widow did not long survive him: according to her son-in-law Sir John Southcote (who married her daughter Elizabeth), "she grew melancholy and lost her wits, keeping almost perpetual silence and refusing nourishment".

They had four other daughters, Gertrude ( a nun), Mary, Frances, who married Sir Edward Gage, 1st Baronet, and Anne, who married Henry Somerset of Pauntley Court, a grandson of Henry Somerset, 1st Marquess of Worcester; and two younger sons Thomas and William.

The New Guy

The New Guy is a 2002 American teen comedy film directed by Ed Decter, written by David Kendall and starring DJ Qualls and Eliza Dushku.

The film tells the story of high school loser Dizzy Harrison (Qualls) who gets himself expelled so that he can move schools and reinvent himself. Learning how to be cool from a prison inmate, he renames himself Gil Harris and is quick to make new friends and soon gains respect from jocks and geeks alike. He begins dating popular girl Danielle (Dushku) and unites a once-divided school, also greatly improving its football team. Eventually, Gil has to face his demons from his old school when they face each other in a football game. The film received generally negative reviews, but was a modest box office success.

Plot
Prison inmate Luther speaks directly to the camera in the opening, telling the story of Dizzy Gillespie Harrison, an 18-year-old nerdy high school senior in Austin, Texas. Dizzy is friends with Nora, Kirk, and Glen, who together started a funk rock band called "Suburban Funk" and are addicted to video games. After the school librarian accidentally gives him a penile fracture, Dizzy becomes despondent. He acts recklessly and is temporarily sent to prison, where he meets Luther. He then resolves to get himself expelled from his high school so that he can attend a new one and attain a better social status there. After numerous attempts, he is successfully expelled from his high school, Rocky Creek.

He enrolls at East Highland High and head cheerleader Danielle welcomes the newcomer to school. Her friend Courtney invites Dizzy to a party and through a mishap, he gives her the impression that he has blown her off. Using a photo given to him by the prison inmates and help from his old friends, Dizzy manages to escape the party with his reputation intact. Upon returning home, however, he finds his father has sold their house and quit work to supervise him, which results in them living in a trailer.

Danielle asks Dizzy to encourage the school to go to see the football team play; he, referencing General Patton and Braveheart, gives an impassioned speech to the downtrodden team, inspiring them to win their first game in years. He is soon enlisted by the coach and principal to plan the school's homecoming dance, and becomes imbued with school spirit, shedding his bad boy image. Danielle breaks up with Conner and starts a relationship with Dizzy.

However, Dizzy and Gil are fast becoming too big for one body. When Nora berates Dizzy for becoming the same person he once hated, he uses his newfound popularity to confront Conner. Dizzy and Danielle spur the students to reunite, and the lines dividing the different cliques are broken.

With a new philosophy, the school football team wins more games and bullying becomes a thing of the past. Reaching the state championship, where they play Rocky Creek, Dizzy's antics on the sideline cost Rocky Creek the game.

After Rocky Creek's loss to East Highland, Barclay, Rocky Creek's running back and one of Dizzy's former tormentors, slowly starts realizing who Gil is, as East Highland High celebrates their victory. At school the next day, while East Highland still celebrates, Barclay confronts and attempts to fight Dizzy, but before he can do anything, he is attacked by the entire student body. After the attack, Conner helps Barclay up from the ground, telling him he wants to know what he knows about Dizzy.

The homecoming dance, which Dizzy's funk band is supposed to play, is crashed by the students of Rocky Creek. Barclay and Conner, who have joined forces to set a trap for Dizzy, play an embarrassing video of the librarian incident. However, Luther and the other inmates arrive to save Dizzy, tying up the two bullies. Nora admits longstanding feelings for Glen, and Danielle reveals to Dizzy that she was also not popular while growing up and ditched her old friends once she gained popularity later on due to desperately wanting to fit in. She forgives him for hiding who he was, and they kiss.

Luther ends the film, and the man he is talking to is revealed to be David Hasselhoff. In a mid-credits scene, Dizzy and Danielle mount a horse and ride off into the sunset together.

Cast

 * Cameo appearances

Production
The film was shot in Austin and around Austin (San Marcos, Elgin, and Del Valle) utilized Texas State University, Driskell Hotel, and an FYE at Lakeline Mall between October 23, 2000, to January 12, 2001.

Unrated version
In the 92-minute unrated cut, Dizzy appears to be a "child of divorce." He once had a mother named Beth Anne but she left the family while Dizzy was doing his "godfather of soul" routine. Miss Kiki Pierce talks about Dizzy's excessive masturbation and becomes his stepmother in the uncensored version (unlike the PG-13 version).

According to the storyline in the uncensored version, Gil Harris had apparently murdered a guy in Rhode Island before being sent off to prison while no back story was made for the name in the theatrical version.

Reception
Rotten Tomatoes gives the film a score of 7% based on 99 reviews, with an average rating of 3.30/10. The consensus reads: "Incoherent, silly, and unoriginal, The New Guy offers up the same old teen gross-out comedy cliches." On Metacritic, the film has a 24% rating, indicating "generally unfavorable reviews" based on reviews from 23 critics.

The film grossed $31,167,388 worldwide against a $13 million production budget.

Fighter Maker

Fighter Maker (格闘ツクール) is a series of games for PlayStation consoles and Microsoft Windows. It features a robust character creation system, letting players even create animations. There are two versions of the games, Fighter Maker (FM series) and 2D Fighter Maker (2DFM series).

Fighter Maker
Part of Agetec Inc.'s Designer Series, Fighter Maker is 3D-based and allows users to create custom moves for their fighters.

The music for the game was composed by the U.K. band INTELLIGENTSIA, who also created the in-game FX; MIRAI, one of the band's 2 members, is a playable character in the game.

The first FM game is also known for having one licensed character, Street Fighter EXs Skullomania, complete with the original move list.

Reception
The game received average reviews according to the review aggregation website GameRankings. IGN said, "when you actually put the character into the game, controls are pretty tight and solid", and concluded, "Fighter Maker is one of the most unique software packages on the PlayStation. I'm guessing we're going to see a ton of websites dedicated to characters gamers have created, uploaded with the handy-dandy DexDrive. The competition between friends is going to be fierce. Who can create the coolest, most utilitarian character in the game?" GameRevolution gave it a mixed review, a few weeks before the game was released Stateside. In Japan, Famitsu gave it a score of 25 out of 40.

Fighter Maker 2
Fighter Maker 2 (FM2) for the PS2 was another entry in the Designer Series from Agetec Inc. It is similar to the original, but with more advancements in character design, movement, and attacks.

Reception
Fighter Maker 2 received more mixed reviews than the original according to the review aggregation website Metacritic.

2D Fighter Maker 95
2D Fighter Maker 95 (FM95) was released for Windows prior to ASCII's departure from gaming. Unlike its PlayStation counterparts, this version focused on 2D-style gameplay, allowing the user to create and import their own characters, sounds and graphics into the engine, allowing for far more flexibility and range than the PS versions. The program was pirated and fan translated to English and released on the Internet, where it found a large following amongst dojin game makers and the M.U.G.E.N. community.

2D Fighter Maker 2nd
2D Fighter Maker 2nd (FM2K or 2DK) was released by ASCII's successor company, Enterbrain. An update to the original version, FM2K allowed for a greater amount of expansion and extension than FM95, revising much of the original engine to allow more options while adding a menu-based system for clarity. As with the previous version, it became wildly popular amongst the dojin communities in Japan. Again, piracy and a fan translation followed, though the second version has yet to meet with the success of the first, primarily due to the large amount of M.U.G.E.N. communities already in operation as well as the incomplete translation of the FM2K software and documentation. A re-translation of this engine was created by WindowsLogic Productions in August 2022 and posted on the Internet Archive.

2D Fighter Maker 2nd EXA
It was announced at Japan Amusement Expo (JAEPO) 2019 that Kadokawa had exclusively licensed the 2D Fighter Maker 2nd engine to exA-Arcadia. In order to use it for arcades, exA-Arcadia re-developed the engine from scratch to use hardware rendering instead of the software rendering of the original version. New features that were not possible before have been added: handling of coins & credits, multiple language support, transitioning between single player and VS games, CPU vs CPU demos, 16:9 widescreen, full screen display and 0.3 frames input latency. This version of the tool is only available for exA-Arcadia developers.

Fourth Street Live!

Fourth Street Live! is a 350000 sqft entertainment and retail complex located on 4th Street, between Liberty and Muhammad Ali Boulevard, in Downtown Louisville, Kentucky. It is owned and was developed by the Cordish Company; it was designed by Louisville architects, Bravura Corporation. Fourth Street Live! first opened to the public on June 1, 2004, and all stores were completed for the grand opening on October 30, 2004. City planners hoped that the district would attract further commercial business development while providing an attractive entertainment venue for the city's hotel and tourist business as well as the local population.

Traffic on 4th Street through the complex is closed and covered for large public gatherings such as music concerts and other events.

Background
Fourth Street Live! began as a downtown revitalization project to redesign and modernize the former Louisville Galleria, a similar but unsuccessful project opened in the early 1980s with the same goals of revitalizing downtown. The Galleria, in turn, had been built on the site of the River City Mall, which opened in 1973, also with similar goals of revitalizing downtown. Fourth Street itself had long been the main shopping and entertainment destination in Downtown Louisville.

The idea of turning Fourth Street into a pedestrian mall actually dates back to 1943, when mayor Wilson W. Wyatt suggested the idea. Proposals were drafted over the years but funding for the $1.5 million River City Mall project was not secured until 1971. The mall originally stretched all the way from Liberty to Broadway, and was initially successful, but over the years vehicular traffic was slowly reintroduced and the mall scaled back.

Tenant changes

On February 16, 2007, the Louisville Convention & Visitors Bureau opened its new Visitor Information Center at the North entrance to Fourth Street Live. The new center totals nearly 3000 sqft, and includes two permanent exhibits, where visitors can learn about the stories of two of Kentucky's most famous icons: Kentucky Bourbon and Colonel Harland Sanders, founder of Kentucky Fried Chicken. The center will also supply information to outside passersby via a high-tech video wall that will run video on different cultural events and attractions.

Expansion
On May 8, 2017, the Cordish Company announced that it will expand the district with the addition of Spark Louisville, a new collaborative workspace coming in 2018.

Events
Some events held at Fourth Street Live! in the past have included national acts in concert, such as Kid Rock, 3 Doors Down, O.A.R., Sister Hazel, VHS or Beta, Goo Goo Dolls, Tracy Lawrence, Jason Michael Carroll, Jake Owen, Jason Aldean, Eric Church, Clay Walker, Three Dog Night, Phil Vassar, Buddy Jewell, Emerson Drive, Finger Eleven, The Marshall Tucker Band, Little Texas, Blue October, Shiny Toy Guns, Gavin DeGraw, Violent Femmes, Gretchen Wilson, Justin Bieber and many others.

The University of Louisville's annual "Run for the L of It" 5K begins and ends at Fourth Street Live. Also, the finish line of the Louisville Ironman Triathlon, which debuted in 2007, is located at Fourth Street Live. The Venue also holds annual events celebrating the Kentucky Derby and was the "Cup Village" when Louisville hosted the 2008 Ryder Cup and often holds pep rallies and celebrations for the University of Louisville's athletic teams including for the teams that made the 2005 Final Four, 2007 Orange Bowl, and the 2007 College World Series. During the Summer, Fourth Street Live hosts Summer Concert Series, which is a series of concerts featuring top national acts. A Mardi Gras parade, Halloween trick-or-treating, and a New Year's Eve celebration are other annual events which are popular at the venue.

The venue will also be part of the city's annual holiday season extravaganza, Holiday in the City.

Wide Angle (TV program)

Wide Angle is an American documentary television program produced by Thirteen/WNET New York for broadcast on PBS and for worldwide distribution. The weekly one-hour program covered international current affairs and was last hosted by veteran journalist Aaron Brown. Wide Angle began broadcasting on PBS in 2002, and aimed to expand the awareness and understanding of Americans about the changing world in which they live. It was the only documentary program on American television devoted exclusively to reporting in-depth on international issues. Following its eighth and final season it was nominated for a 2010 International Documentary Association Continuing Series award.

Production
Wide Angle programs consist of long-form, character-driven documentaries exploring pressing international issues through human stories, often followed by an interview with a foreign policy expert to connect the films’ themes to American concerns. The program completed its eighth season in 2009, and in that time it had produced more than 60 films in over 50 countries.

Wide Angle also produced a companion website, still extant, and additional educational materials for each film. The program's website includes background information on the issues from the films, interactive features, exclusive video and audio, and full streaming versions of many programs. Additional educational materials are distributed to high schools and colleges. In 2006, Wide Angle's online Window into Global History project earned the Goldman Sachs Foundation's Prize for Excellence in International Education.

Previous anchors for the program include Bill Moyers, former Assistant Secretary of State James Rubin, Mishal Husain, and Daljit Dhaliwal. Previous interview guests include Senator Hillary Clinton, UN Deputy Secretary-General Mark Malloch Brown, Mexico’s former Foreign Minister Jorge Castañeda, former Ugandan government minister Betty Oyella Bigombe, Nobel Prize Laureates Joseph E. Stiglitz and Amartya Sen, WHO Director-General Margaret Chan, Women for Women International CEO Zainab Salbi, New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristof, writer Arundhati Roy and former U.S. Secretaries of State George Mitchell and James A. Baker III.

Episodes
The July 2002 pilot episode "Saddam’s Ultimate Solution" was hosted by former Assistant Secretary of State and chief State Department spokesman James Rubin. It focused on Saddam Hussein’s biological and chemical weapons and the wider threat they imply. In a host interview broadcast immediately following the episode, resident fellow at the American Enterprise Institute Richard Perle stated that "the thing that is brought home so clearly in this film is the connection among terrorist organizations now implicating Saddam Hussein directly with Al Qaeda".

Reception
Wide Angle programs have won numerous awards, including an Emmy Award, the Sigma Delta Chi Award, the Chicago International Television Hugo award, the Gabriel Award, several top awards from the South Asian Journalists Association (SAJA), citations from the Overseas Press Club, and 22 Cine Golden Eagle awards.

The New York Times had a mixed review of the first program "Saddam’s Ultimate Solution", especially concerning the interview of Richard Perle by host James Rubin: "Mr. Perle offers an argument rather than analysis when he says an American operation in Iraq will be 'quicker and easier than many people think,' a matter of weeks not months. Mr. Rubin questions what he calls this 'optimistic scenario,' but because it's not his role to take a position, the Perle interview is the lopsided half of a debate. Still, in a television landscape where network news is dominated by tiny sound bites and cable by shouting heads, Wide Angle had a distinct and valuable place."

Focal Point
In December 2008, Wide Angle launched, Focal Point, a new online-exclusive documentary program. Like Wide Angle, Focal Point offers a deeper understanding of forces shaping the world today through compelling human stories, with Focal Point providing a venue for shorter, less formal pieces.

In the first episode of Focal Point, "From Jihad to Rehab", Canadian journalist Nancy Durham reports from a rehabilitation center in Saudi Arabia, where art therapy and religious re-education are being used to reform militant jihadists.

Talk:Vito LoGrasso

Wearing a dress in public
He certainly wears a dress on the way to the venues. This is certainly original research, but he got out of a car and asked me directions to the MTS Centre on the day of the last Smackdown house show in Winnipeg. Teh Shingen 04:31, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Hmm ... it's probably easier for him if he doesn't have to change into his wrestling outfit at the arena. And wearing it in the car doesn't count as 'in public', per se. -UK-Logician-2006
 * Well, considering he got out of the car, and came up to me and talked to me, and other people saw, it's public enough for me. Teh Shingen 15:43, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

That's pretty cool that a wrestler came up to you. You should have got to know him, maybe looked up that skirt of his 65.31.99.71 08:59, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

~freewikii~ Since Vito won the DSW title, doesn't it mean that he belongs to the DSW roster now?

 * One would assume.«»bd(talk stalk) 18:46, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Not exactly. It was a gimmick & he didn't want to break Kayfabe so he wore the dress everywhere, rather than be seen in public without it on (thus break Kayfabe or the illusion of the gimmick). It used to be common that wrestlers would live their gimmick until the 90's when the wrestling newsgroups & later, wrestling websites became commonplace and protecting the business was no longer needed.--Hndsmepete 03:16, 22 July 2007 (UTC)

Down Your Way

Down Your Way was a BBC radio series which ran from 29 December 1946 to 1992, originally on the Home Service, later on BBC Radio 4, usually being broadcast on Sunday afternoons. It visited towns and villages around the United Kingdom, spoke to residents and played their choice of music.

It was initially hosted by Stewart MacPherson, who presented the first twelve shows, but in 1947, after brief hosting spells by Lionel Gamlin and Wynford Vaughan-Thomas, Richard Dimbleby took over its presentation until 1955, then Franklin Engelmann until his death in 1972 when Brian Johnston took over until 1987. In 1975, despite then being the second most popular programme on radio, it was taken off the air as an 'economy measure'. It was subsequently reinstated, after a storm of popular protest.

From 1987 until its demise in 1992 it had a different celebrity host every week, who would visit a place of significance in their own lives – effectively turning it into 'Down My Way' and blending it into the then-emerging celebrity culture.

Its well-remembered signature tune was "Horse Guards, Whitehall" by Haydn Wood.

In the early 1980s the show was satirised on The Kenny Everett Television Show as "Up Your Way", a saccharine television version presented by "Verity Treacle". In 1984, it was parodied by Radio Active as "Round Your Parts".
