Intertransversarii

The intertransversarii are small muscles placed between the transverse processes of the vertebrae.

Cervical
In the cervical region they are best developed, consisting of rounded muscular and tendinous fasciculi, and are placed in pairs, passing between the anterior and the posterior tubercles respectively of the transverse processes of two contiguous vertebrae, and separated from one another by an anterior primary division of the cervical nerve, which lies in the groove between them.
 * The muscles connecting the anterior tubercles are termed the anterior intertransversarii.
 * Those between the posterior tubercles are termed the posterior intertransversarii.

Both sets are supplied by the anterior rami of the spinal nerves.

There are seven pairs of these muscles, the first pair being between the atlas and axis, and the last pair between the seventh cervical and first thoracic vertebræ.

Thoracic
In the thoracic region they are present between the transverse processes of the lower three thoracic vertebrae, and between the transverse processes of the last thoracic and the first lumbar. These are called the  thoracic intertransversarii and are supplied by the posterior rami of the spinal nerves.

Lumbar
In the lumbar region they are arranged in pairs, on either side of the vertebral column,
 * one set occupying the entire interspace between the transverse processes of the lumbar vertebrae, are the lateral lumbar intertransversarii.
 * the other set, the medial lumbar intertransversarii, passing from the accessory process of one vertebra to the mammillary of the vertebra below.

The intertransversarii laterales are supplied by the anterior rami, and the intertransversarii mediales by the posterior rami of the spinal nerves.

Function
They contribute little to no movement on their own, but they stabilize adjoining vertebrae allowing more effective action from other muscle groups.

Uniflite

Uniflite (United Boat Builders) was founded in Bellingham, Washington, by Art Nordtvedt in October 1957. Although the company is best remembered as a maker of recreational powerboats, its initial products were small fiberglass runabouts. The company also supplied river patrol craft to the US Navy Patrol Boat - River between 1965 and 1972 for use in the Vietnam War.

Uniflite was acquired by Chris-Craft Boats in 1984 who continued to build the boats under their brand until they ceased production in 1989.

After the company's demise, Art's son, Gary Nordtvedt, went on to found Norstar Boats.

History
Uniflite (United Boat Builders) was started in Bellingham, WA, by Art "Papa" Nordtvedt in October 1957.

The first Uniflite boat an all fiberglass 17' outboard. Uniflite soon added a 14', an 18' and a 20' outboard and inboard/outboard boats, followed by a 25' express cruiser followed by a 31' and a 34' boat. Uniflite was the only boat builder exclusively using fire-retardant resins in the production of pleasure boats.

In January 1959, the plant and office moved into the old plywood plant in Fairhaven, Washington (in Bellingham). This became Uniflite's permanent home.

In 1962, Uniflite became a public company trading on the New York Stock Exchange, thus becoming eligible for Navy contracts.

In 1965, the Navy awarded Uniflite with a contract to build Patrol Boat, Rivers (PBRs). The PBRs were powered by twin Detroit 6V53 diesel engines with water jets and they cruised between 25 and 31 knots. There were approximately 718 PBRs built, at least 418 of which were built by Uniflite. At the height of production two PBRs were rolling off the assembly line along with one 36' landing craft each day. In addition to the Navy contracts, in the 1960s and early 1970s Uniflite had numerous other military contract building 14' and 50' boats: patrol craft, landing craft, and personnel boats. Uniflite also built commercial fishing boats, and sailboats besides the more widely recognized pleasure boats.

In 1977, Uniflite acquired boat molds from Pacemaker Boat Co. Pacemaker Boat company was founded in 1949 by Charles Platt (C.P.) Leek in New Jersey from his company C.P. Leek & Sons, Inc. who also later established Egg Harbor boat company. It was at this time that Uniflite started a second Uniflite plant in Swansboro, North Carolina.

In 1980, a fire almost totally destroyed the Uniflite plant in Bellingham. However, since they had molds in Swansboro, NC, they were able to continue production of their boats.

In 1984, Uniflite was acquired by Chris Craft for $10 per share. Chris Craft built many of the identical boats under the Chris Craft label until they stopped production in 1989.

Cyriacus of Ancona

Cyriacus of Ancona or Ciriaco de' Pizzicolli (31 July 1391 – 1452) was a restlessly itinerant Italian humanist and antiquarian who came from a prominent family of merchants in Ancona, a maritime republic on the Adriatic. He has been called the Father of Archaeology:

"Cyriac of Ancona was the most enterprising and prolific recorder of Greek and Roman antiquities, particularly inscriptions, in the fifteenth century, and the general accuracy of his records entitles him to be called the founding father of modern classical archeology."

Life
Unlike many library antiquarians, Cyriacus traveled at first for his family's ventures, then to satisfy his own curiosity, all around the Eastern Mediterranean, noting down his archaeological discoveries in his day-book, Commentaria, that eventually filled seven volumes. He made numerous voyages in Southern Italy, Dalmatia and Epirus and into the Morea, to Egypt, to Chios, Rhodes and Beirut, to Anatolia and Constantinople, during which he wrote detailed descriptions of monuments and ancient remains, illustrated by his drawings.

His detailed on-site observations, particularly in lands of the Ottoman Empire, make him one of the precursors of modern archaeology. His accuracy as a meticulous epigrapher was praised by Giovanni Battista de Rossi.

His years in Rome studying Latin are commemorated by his drawings of many of the monuments and antiquities of ancient Rome. In Constantinople he studied Greek. He enjoyed the patronage of Eugenius IV, who had been Papal legate in the March of Ancona from 1420 to 1422, Cosimo de' Medici, and the Visconti of Milan. He was in Siena at the court of Sigismund, and when Sigismund came to Rome for his coronation as Emperor, Cyriacus was his guide among Rome's antiquities. Two years later in 1435, Cyriacus was back exploring in Greece and Egypt.

He was probably the first traveler who recognized the importance of the ruins of Eretria. On 5 April 1436, he described and sketched a plan of the ancient city walls, indicating the position of the theatre and the fortifications of the acropolis and mentioning the existence of inscriptions. He collected a great store of inscriptions, manuscripts, and other antiquities. Through a drawing made for Cyriacus, the appearance of the Column of Justinian is recorded for us, before it was dismantled by the Ottomans. He returned in 1426 after having visited Rhodes, Beirut, Damascus, Cyprus, Mytilene, Thessalonica, and other places.

Pushed by a strong curiosity, he also bought a great number of documents which he used to write six volumes of Commentarii ("Commentaries"). The ravages of time have been unkind to Cyriacus's lifework, which he never published, but which fortunately circulated in manuscript and in copies of his drawings; the Commentarii were lost in the 1514 fire of the library of Alessandro Sforza and Costanza Varano in Pesaro. A series of Pizzicolli's manuscripts about Ancona was destroyed during a fire of the city's archives in 1532.

He retired to Cremona, where he died in 1452, according to the Trotti manuscript, now held in the Biblioteca Ambrosiana in Milan. Long after his death, some surviving texts were printed: Epigrammata reperta per Illyricum a Kyriaco Anconitano (Rome, 1664), Cyriaci Anconitani nova fragmenta notis illustrata, (Pesaro, 1763) and Itinerarium (Florence, 1742).

James Patrick Kelly (born April 11, 1951 in Mineola, New York) is an American science fiction author who has won both the Hugo Award and the Nebula Award.

Biography
Kelly made his first fiction sale in 1975. He graduated magna cum laude from the University of Notre Dame in 1972, with a B.A. in English Literature. After graduating from college, he worked as a full-time proposal writer until 1977. He attended the Clarion Workshop twice, once in 1974 and again in 1976.

Throughout the 1980s, he and his friend John Kessel became involved in the humanist/cyberpunk debate. While Kessel and Kelly were both humanists, Kelly also wrote several cyberpunk-like stories, such as "The Prisoner of Chillon" (1985) and "Rat" (1986). His story "Solstice" (1985) was published in Bruce Sterling's anthology Mirrorshades: The Cyberpunk Anthology.

Kelly has been awarded several of science fiction's highest honors. He won the Hugo Award for his novelette "Think Like a Dinosaur (1995) and again for his novelette 1016 to 1 (1999). Most recently, his 2005 novella, Burn, won the 2006 Nebula Award. Other stories have won the Asimov's Reader Poll and the SF Chronicle Award. He is frequently on the final ballot for the Nebula Award, the Locus Poll Award and the Theodore Sturgeon Memorial Award.

He is currently on the Popular Fiction faculty for the Stonecoast MFA Program in Creative Writing at the University of Southern Maine. He also frequently teaches and participates in science fiction workshops, such as Clarion and the Sycamore Hill Writer's Workshop. He has served on the New Hampshire State Council on the Arts since 1998 and chaired the council in 2004.

He is a frequent contributor to Asimov's Science Fiction and for the past several years has contributed a non-fiction column to Asimov's, "On the Net." He has had a story in the June issue of Asimov's for the past twenty years. In addition to his writing, Kelly has recently turned his hand to editing (with John Kessel), with several reprint anthologies: Feeling Very Strange: The Slipstream Anthology, Rewired: The Post-Cyberpunk Anthology and The Secret History of Science Fiction. Through these anthologies, Kelly and Kessel have brought together a wide spectrum of both traditional genre authors and authors who are considered to be more mainstream, including Don DeLillo, George Saunders, Jonathan Lethem, Aimee Bender, Michael Chabon and Steven Millhauser.

Talk:Bloody Tears

Untitled

 * The music's also in Dawn of Sorrow, as a bonus track on the Sound Test. Anyone know who composed it?

Regarding the different versions of Bloody Tears

 * Does anybody know if Kenichi Matsubara did the tune to Haunted Castle or to Castlevania II: Simon's Quest first?

 * Haunted Castle comes first, according to the GameFAQs Castlevania Series Music FAQ (just search for any Cv game and it'll show up). ~GMH ''[[User Talk:Glenn Magus Harvey|talk to me]] 04:45, 15 November 2005 (UTC)

 * Apparently the GameFAQs page is wrong. Apparently according to people who have asked the relevant devs at konami, it was first used in CV2 on FDS(late 1987?), then LATER was it used on Haunted castle and CV2 NES (both 1988). The haunted castle stage 3 where it was used has a painting on it which is crying blood, and people incorrectly assume this is where the name of the song comes from. That painting was put there by the devs as a REFERENCE TO THE SONG. Lord Nightmare (talk) 23:30, 21 August 2008 (UTC)

Regarding the composers
The VG Museum states that "T. Sound Team" consists of (???), (???), Sanoppi & Metal Yuki. Four composers? Any info on them?
 * Does anybody know who made the music to Dracula X: Rondo of Blood?

 * Does anybody know who made the music to Akumajo Dracula? The VG Museum credits the sound design to Shin Chan, Jigokuokusama Iisuka & Deur Shibata. That's good and all, but sound design might mean that two of them only made sound effects, for all that I know.

Before someone deletes it...
Bloody Tears WAS used briefly in CV64. The first time is at the beginning of level 2 and at the end of level 3. Buzda 04:19, 11 February 2006 (UTC)

typo!!!!!!!
Epilogue

Putnam died in Brooklyn, Connecticut ten years later in 1790 and was buried in an above-ground tomb in the Brooklyn town cemetery. Within a few years, however, the site became so overrun with hero-worshipping, that the badly-mutilated marble marker was removed for safe keeping to the Capitol Building in Hartford.

In 1888, Putnam’s remain were removed from the Brooklyn cemetry and placed in a sarcophagus built into the foundation of a monument, newly erected on a plot of ground near the Brooklyn town green.--Fibulator 13:51, 22 August 2005 (UTC)

'''Hi Fibulator, won't it be easier if you just key in the missing "s"? PM Poon

He was captured by the Caughnawaga Indians during a New York State campaign, and was saved from being roasted alive, after being bound to a tree, only by the last-minute intervention of a French officer. This was a typical ploy of French officers in that position. They would allow the natives to torture all the noncoms to death while the officer was made to watch. Then when it was the officers turn, the French officer would negotiate a release. If a deal was made, the officer go home, raise the money and would send the Frenchman his negotiated fee. Officers were more likely to produce a nice ransom and could be trusted to send the money.

There is no mention of Put's ride in Greenwich except for the painting depicting the ride. That is a great shame because that event really distilled the man in a nut shell.

Israel an old married man escorts a young widow to a ball. It is likely spies sent word to NYC that Putnan would be unavailable that night. The troops departed at about the time it would take to ride to King's Bridge and quickly get ready. Troops leave King's Bridge at 11 PM and arrive in Greenwich by 10 AM. The troops were detected by scouting parties in New Rochelle about half way in their journey. That would have been about 2 or 3 AM. It is likely while some stayed to observe they must have sent word back to Greenwich but the commanding officer was now where to be found. Israel left the ball with his escort then disappeared. Israel shows up at about 9 or 10. His men are poorly prepared for the attack and everything is in disarray. This is quite deplorable. However, the old portly man proves his metal! After almost being captured by the British and escapes by galloping down a cliff with steps cut into the side he makes great decisions. None of the British dare follow the reckless old man. After he escapes he makes no more mistakes and makes the most of what he has. The British burn some whale boats and some salt works and declare a victory. Putnam fights and falls back preserving his troops and waits for reinforcements then counter attacks. Tyron has already left town knowing that soon he will be out manned. Tyron is also careful not to lose troops without cause. Putnam's troops catch looters that stayed too long so we know Tyron left more quickly than his victory statement implied. Putnam rightly claims he drove the British out of Greenwich with no real losses of men or materials. Militarily it was a draw but both sides claim victory. Putnam man was very inconsistent. Oldtimer

Jewish
He has such a Jewish name. Has there ever been any research done into this? Maybe they were Jews and converted... Putnam certainly sounds a little Jewishy...or I'm just crazy. It'd be interesting to know that there was a Jewish general in the Revolution, even if his family had converted.--Metallurgist (talk) 20:07, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
 * No, Israel Putnam came from a family who were among the original Puritan settlers in colonial Massachusetts. Pastor Theo (talk) 01:12, 26 February 2009 (UTC)

 * The Puritans and other Protestants through much of the 19th century used many names from the Old Testament, part of their thinking that they had a relation to the Jews and early years of Christianity. I have relatives from an 1805 Sussex family with given names of Samuel, Joseph, Rachael, and Jesse, among others. These had been handed down for generations. As noted, such names are very obvious in New England.Parkwells (talk) 17:56, 1 June 2015 (UTC)

Plow
Putnam left his plow in the field to serve in the Revolutionary War. This story is strikingly similar to that of Cincinnatus, a man who was quite revered by Putnam's contemporaries. I feel that this point is worth mentioning as perhaps Putnam's action was inspired by Cincinnatus'. I would also like to point out that there are at least two plows in existence, one at Putnam Memorial State Park and the other at the Hartford Armory.Tommyborsh (talk) 20:22, 11 August 2016 (UTC)

Talk:Battle of Salamanca

Untitled
This article lacks context. What larger war was this battle a part of? What were three foreign countries doing fighting on Spanish soil? Why are Spanish troops only mentioned for their failure to guard an escape route (and who were they supposed to be guarding it from)? I'm lost! ThePedanticPrick 01:46, 22 July 2005 (UTC)

Are you still lost? The info box or whatever it's called does now say it was in the Peninsular war. L0ngpar1sh (talk) 20:21, 24 August 2011 (UTC)

Creating the Opportunity
I'd like to take issue with the third para, which says: "...Marmont and his deputy commander General Bonet were wounded by shrapnel in the first few minutes of firing. The French command confusion may have been decisive in creating the opportunity, which Wellington successfully seized..." Surely that is speculation.

Due to downsizing my Peninsular books have gone, but more than one attests that in out-marching the allies the French column became extended. Wellington watched this happening and as he & the staff finished lunch, Wellington snapped his telescope shut and said something like "That will do!" and launched his attack. No cannon fire would yet have started so Marmont & Bonet could not yet have been wounded. L0ngpar1sh (talk) 20:21, 24 August 2011 (UTC)l0ngpar1sh

What?
A Sharpe book as a reference?? O_O —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.57.126.37 (talk) 02:52, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

Clausel
Perphaps Clausel should be added in the Commanders list as he became the de facto commander of the French army when Marmont was injured.--Willski72 (talk) 20:03, 16 May 2009 (UTC)

Where
I am absolutely lost in this description of the battle. It says that the British were seen to the West of the French, but the map seems to show the main British force to the East. How did the British get between the two wings of the French? It is not at all clear which are the "long" and "short" sides of the "L", and in the description of the various attacks, we have no idea of where they are. Then the French "streamed away": but which way? And where was the important Alba de Tormes bridge?

The contemporary map is interesting, but you can't read the detail

Baska436 (talk) 11:36, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

 * Contemporary map is wrong. The landscape is imaginary and all the phases of the battle are drawn one over the other. I will try to clarify.--Igor21 (talk) 14:45, 9 February 2010 (UTC)

Where?
Well, the top of the map isn't the North direction, indeed there's a small arrow at the top left of the map marking the North. The orientation of this map is W-NW approx.

The anglo-portuguese didn't manage to get between de french wings, I believe there are depicted two diferent instants at the battle, before and after the british attacked Clausel's left wing

The way to Alba de Tormes is the way that exits the map at the left bottom corner.

By the way, the list of commander casualties is incomplete, Le Marchant died leading his last cavalry charge as shows the text in the article, and General Beresford was wounded in his chest during Clausel's central counterattack.

The offcier on the horse is Sir Edward Packenham not Wellington.--Igor21 (talk) 14:47, 9 February 2010 (UTC)

Decisive victory claim
I believe that it is incorrect to call this battle a 'decisive' victory. Moreover, I see that no source is quoted to back this claim. While, I agree that Salamanca-Arapiles was a major victory, with significant strategic consequences, I think that none of the prerequisites of a decisive victory were achieved. Such a victory would require the battle to put an end to the campaign or the war, or at least destroy the enemy's force to such extent that its military capacity and will to continue fighting would be shaken beyond repair. This was not the case, as war continued to rage for another 2 years. Wellington's occupation of Madrid was a major political victory, but occupying a capital is not necessarily the hallmark of decisive victories, nor its prerequisite. Think of Napoleon's victories at Eckmuhl or Ratisbon and his subsequent occupation of Vienna. Moreover, Wellington's occupation of Madrid almost ended up in disaster on 13 November 1812, near Salamanca when he was almost surrounded by superior forces under Jean-de-Dieu Soult and escape was only possible due a sudden torrential rain, which made pursuit impossible. This manoeuvre exposed the weakness of the Allied position in the Peninsula. So, unless someone can quote a few solid sources to back this claim, I am going to remove the word 'decisive' from the infobox.--Alexandru Demian (talk) 08:20, 2 June 2011 (UTC)

This old chestnut comes up on every notable battle page at one point or another. Many historians have named it as 'decisive', for one of these, and a fully credible source, Richard Holmes (military historian) says it was decisive.Gaius Octavius Princeps (talk) 22:29, 11 January 2012 (UTC)

Sharpe
While I appreciate the Sharpe reference (Bernard Cornwell's fictional rifleman) I'm not sure he was leading riflemen at the battle as the article says. 87.147.168.189 (talk) 12:12, 10 September 2022 (UTC)

Losses in the battle
There is a very strange spread of French casualties, with some reports of 12,000, some of 13,000, some of 14,000, some of 15,000, some of 17,000. What do you think it could be due to? It is surprising that the French side in these numbers from the first (12,000) to the last counts only killed, wounded and prisoners of war, but not missing. It seems to me personally that Bodart, f.e., also accounts marching and combat-vanguard/rearguard losses for the whole Salamanca campaign before the siege of Burgos began, but ignores British losses in this regard.

Llorente

The surname Llorente (or Lorente) is derived from the Latin name Laurentius (Lorenzo in Spanish). This surname scattered over almost the entire Iberian Peninsula due to the reconquest, has an Aragonese origin recorded under different forms: Lorien, Lorient (sobrarbesa place names), Lorent or Llorent (forms in medieval Aragonese Ebro Valley). Because Castilian became increasingly important, the surnames came to be pronounced with an -e at the end.

Sword hunt

Several times in Japanese history, the new ruler sought to ensure his position by calling a sword hunt (刀狩). Armies would scour the entire country, confiscating the weapons of all potential enemies of the new regime. In this manner, the new ruler sought to ensure that no one could take the country by force as he had just done. The most famous sword hunt was ordered by Toyotomi Hideyoshi in 1588.

Sword hunts in the Sengoku period
Most men wore swords from the Heian period until the Sengoku period in Japan. Oda Nobunaga sought an end to this practice, and ordered the seizure of swords and a variety of other weapons from civilians, in particular the Ikkō-ikki peasant-monk leagues which sought to overthrow samurai rule.

In 1588, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, having become kampaku or "imperial regent", ordered a new sword hunt; Hideyoshi, like Oda, sought to solidify separations in the class structure, denying commoners weapons while allowing them to the nobility, the samurai class. In addition, Toyotomi's sword hunt, like Oda's, was intended to prevent peasant uprisings and to deny weapons to his adversaries. This hunt may have been inspired by a peasant uprising in Higo Province the year prior, but also served to disarm the sōhei of Mount Kōya and Tōnomine. Toyotomi claimed that the confiscated weapons would be melted down and used to create a giant image of the Buddha for the Asuka-dera monastery in Nara.

"Taikō's Sword Hunt", as it came to be called, was accompanied by a number of other edicts, including the Expulsion Edict of 1590, by which Toyotomi sought to establish a census and expel from villages any newcomers who arrived in or after 1590. The chief goal of this was to place a check on the threat posed by rōnin, masterless wandering samurai who had the potential not only for crime and violence in general, but for banding together to overthrow Toyotomi rule. Hideyoshi, like most of this period, believed in rule by edict, paying little or no attention to legal principles.

Sword control in Edo period
The Tokugawa shogunate did not confiscate swords from farmers and townspeople, who could continue to wear daisho until 1683. Many would keep wearing wakizashi on a daily basis after then. After the middle of the 18th century, they were still worn during special events such as travel, weddings, and funerals. This lasted until the Meiji Restoration.

Also, peasants were not prohibited from owning weapons. For example, during the Bunsei era (1818–1830 CE), the Shogunate investigated the weapons owned by farmers in the Kantō region. As a result, many weapons such as spears, long swords, swords, and naga-wakizashi were confirmed. However, the shogunate did not confiscate these weapons, only ordering the peasants not to go out with them and to report them if they were lost.

Sword ban in the Meiji Restoration
The Meiji Restoration of the 1860s was the beginning of a period of major modernization and Westernization. In 1871, extensive reforms were passed and executed, abolishing the han system and thus ending feudalism and the class system.

In 1876, samurai were banned from carrying daishō. Peasants and townspeople were banned from carrying wakizashi. A standing army was created, as was a police force. This "sword hunt" only prohibited civilians from wearing swords and going out, not the possession of weapons.

Sword hunt after World War 2
In 1946, Japanese civilians were made to forfeit their swords by Supreme Commander for the Allied Powers. The number of swords forfeited was over three million. This is the first time that Japanese peasants were disarmed completely.

Today, Japan has a Sword and Firearms Law which, much like gun control laws around the world, governs the possession and use of weapons in public. The purchase and ownership of certain swords within Japan is legal if they are properly registered, though the import and export of such items is tightly controlled, particularly in the case of items that might be labeled as national or cultural artifacts. Swords that are not produced by licensed smiths (including all machine-made swords) are prohibited for individuals. Japanese military swords are legal in Japan if they were made with traditional materials and methods, as swords produced by such methods are not seen only as weapons but also as works of art. Swords produced by mass production methods are seen solely as weapons and are thus illegal.

Grimsaem

Grimsaem Animation Co. Ltd., Seoul, Korea ((주)그림샘 애니메이션) was an animation studio located in South Korea. It is a division of Sunwoo Entertainment. Grimsaem creates feature-length work for Nickelodeon, and has worked on the Fox TV series Family Guy, animating the full first and third seasons of the show.

Information
Grimsaem is also known as Sunwoo Entertainment due to being spun off of the Sunwoo after years of success. The company was established in the year of 1979, and it is known to be a South Korean animation studio. It is claimed that the studio had been around since the year of 1974 though. They began by working with South Korean productions, but they eventually moved to work with Disney about ten years later. Now they are considered to be one of the more popular overseas animation studios. Once Sunwoo became successful, the new and different companies that were born from it included Anivision, Sunwoo Digital, and of course Grimseam. In addition to working along with Disney, Sunwoo and its smaller studios have also worked for Universal, Cookie Jar Entertainment, 20th Century Fox, and Nickelodeon in the years following. In the year of 2000, all of the companies that were broken away from Sunwoo ended back up in the Sunwoo Entertainment studio.

Sim RPG Maker

Sim RPG Maker (シミューレーションRPGツクール) is a series of tactical role-playing game software and spin-off of the long-running RPG Maker series, although the name is not a direct translation of the original name which would be "Simulation RPG Maker".

Releases
There have been two versions of Sim RPG Maker in 1998. A Windows version was released on May 29, in Japan only. A console version was released on September 17, for the Sega Saturn and Sony PlayStation in Japan only by ASCII.

Gameplay
Simulation RPG Maker 95 was released a year after RPG Maker 95 and allowed the user to create tactical games similar to the Fire Emblem series. While Sim RPG Maker 95 retained the user friendly layout and design of RPG Maker 95 it required a basic understanding of the program to properly use.

This style of game is classified as a tactical RPG similar to Final Fantasy Tactics, Fire Emblem, and Ogre Battle.

The program is somewhat limited and inflexible in comparison to other RPG Makers. It comes with a run-time package (RTP) with built-in graphics for animations. Custom graphics can be added, but this is more difficult than in other programs from the RPG Maker series. Graphics are limited to 256 colors, which can cause distortion if two graphics with differing pallets are used on the same map. Files must follow a strict naming convention using letters to designate the type of file, followed by numbers to differentiate the file. For example, a walking graphic for a character class using picture ID 007, could be named CA03_007. The first two letters, "CA", correspond to "character animation". The first set of numerical digits correspond to the animation slot used in the animation editor, slot 03. The final set of numerical digits correspond to the picture ID being used, 007. One advantage Sim RPG Maker has over others in the series is that it does not require the installation of the RTP to run a game created by the program. Only the installation of the game is necessary, but the graphics can only come in BMP file format, creating larger file sizes than the other RPG Maker programs.

A game typically involves several maps, each with a starting event or cutscene, the main battle, and an ending cutscene. In between maps, players can be sent to the camp, where they may purchase items, switch out party members, change equipment, or check stats of characters. Maps can be designed with different objectives in mind. The most common objective is defeating all enemies or a specific boss character. In addition, players may have to survive a set number of rounds, move past a specified location, or prevent specified characters from dying. Some maps may even be used strictly for cutscenes, with no battles taking place. Maps are progressed through linearly, but it is possible to send the player to maps out of order, enabling multiple/alternate storyline forks. It is also possible to send the player to a previous map.

Emanuel de Witte

Emanuel de Witte (1617–1692) was a Dutch perspective painter. In contrast to Pieter Jansz Saenredam, who emphasized architectural accuracy, De Witte was more concerned with the atmosphere of his interiors. Though few in number, de Witte also produced genre paintings.

Life
De Witte was born in Alkmaar and learned geometry from his father a schoolmaster. He joined the local Guild of St Luke in 1636. After a stay in Rotterdam, he moved to Delft and studied with Evert van Aelst. In 1651 de Witte settled in Amsterdam where his first wife, Geerje Arents, died in 1655. He then married a 23-year-old orphan, Lysbeth van der Plas, who exercised a bad influence on de Witte's adolescent daughter. In December 1659 both were arrested for theft from a neighbour. Lysbeth, pregnant, had to leave the city for a period of six years; she lived outside the city walls and died in 1663.

Following the arrest of his wife and child, de Witte was forced to indenture himself to the Amsterdam notary and art dealer Joris de Wijs, surrendering all of his work in exchange for room, board, and 800 guilders annually. De Witte broke the contract, was sued by the dealer, and forced to indenture himself further as a result. Several patrons provided de Witte with support, but these relations did not work out well, for he tended to shout at his clients and at people watching him at work in churches. Records tell of his gambling habit and a fight with Gerard de Lairesse. Around 1688 he moved in with Hendrick van Streeck, in exchange for training him as a painter of church interiors. According to Arnold Houbraken, after an argument about the rent, de Witte hanged himself from a canal bridge in Amsterdam in 1692. The rope broke and de Witte drowned. Because the canal froze that night, his corpse was not found until eleven weeks later.

De Witte initially painted portraits as well as mythological and religious scenes. After his move from Delft to Amsterdam in 1651, de Witte specialized more and more in representing church interiors, and also he painted the old church in Amsterdam from almost every corner. He sometimes combined aspects of different churches to depict interiors of ideal churches, populating them with churchgoers, sometimes accompanied by a dog. De Witte's excellent sense of composition combined with his use of light created a powerful sense of space. According to Walter Liedtke, de Witt's "main interest was the space itself – its light, color, sheer extent, and mood – not the architecture for its own sake"; the careful arrangement of light serves to "intensify the sensation of being within a great but at the same time sheltered space."

Talk:Data Distribution Service

Other publish/subscribe systems
i haven't understood the difference between OMG's Data Distribution Service and other publish/subscribe system, such as gryphon, siena, adn so on.

who can give a survey of comparing DDS and other pub/sub middleware?

thanks.

 * DDS is standard, the others (Siena, Mercury, Spread etc) are not. NDDS is an commercial implementation of DDS used by Department of Defense and others. The QoS part is also important.

The question is larger than simply that one (OMG DDS) is a standard and the others are not. Publish-Subscribe comes in various 'flavors' (Topic-based, Content-based, Type-based) and within them various ways to implement each. OMG DDS is based on the "Data-Centric Publish Subscribe" model where, in order to make it amenable for use in embedded and/or real-time environments, Topics are defined in accordance with a data model (think relational) and associated in various clearly defined ways with a Quality of Service (QoS). These QoS attributes define the offered (or expected) behavior of a publication (or subscription).

Note that the product from RTI is no longer called NDDS but "RTI DDS"; the name "NDDS" is reserved for their product that pre-dates (but which helped form the basis of, along with THALES SPLICE) the OMG DDS spec. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.29.43.2 (talk) 15:16, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

The answer is somewhat misleading, HLA (High Level Architecture) is an IEEE standard for a Publish/Subscribe middleware too. There are differences between HLA and DDS, but they are not particularly significant. HLA is targeted more towards the Modeling and Simulation community, while DDS is targeted towards a broader community. Careful examination will show that HLA can do things that DDS can't, and DDS can do things that HLA can't. However, missing features on both sides can be added by users by changes to the object model. --63.139.25.250 (talk) 13:54, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

 * One of the notable absences is Asian company "DDS" products. Rather than me listing some that I know about, perhaps the Asian DDS community should be solicited to add their content. 2001:558:6017:18E:DD02:57C1:43CD:4CEF (talk) 18:12, 23 January 2023 (UTC)

These words
''Data Distribution Service for Real-time Systems (DDS) is a specification of a publish/subscribe middleware for distributed systems created in response to the need to standardize a data-centric publish-subscribe programming model for distributed systems. ''
 * Data-centric? Programming model? Please explain. Thanks, --Abdull (talk) 19:25, 24 August 2008 (UTC)

Marshalling vs. Serialization

History
The recent edit by MrOllie I believe is incorrect, the original shows where the created product exists today. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ChrisLloydPT (talk • contribs) 16:09, 31 October 2012 (UTC)
 * The history section is about who created the standard, not about their products or what companies currently have business interests in them. - MrOllie (talk) 16:22, 31 October 2012 (UTC)
 * The History section is misleading from its very first sentences, by erroneously conflating two uses of the word "specification." There is an international DDS standard specification which was created by the OMG and its member companies, not solely by any one company/team of companies. Multiple corporate and non-corporate member parties participated in that process. A pair of them contributed much more to the DDS standard than the other parties did, because they had previously been working on such a commercial product (as noted), and the other parties respected that work. Readers of this article are thus unknowingly exposed either to corporate marketing information, or to inadvertently misleading English. 2001:558:6017:18E:DD02:57C1:43CD:4CEF (talk) 18:41, 23 January 2023 (UTC)

Merge and move?
Real-Time Publish-Subscribe (RTPS) Protocol is a badly-named article that has never had any independent sources, so does not meet notability guidelines. It needs to be either deleted or merged to this one. We generally do not have separate articles on system and their protocols unless they are independently notable and each meet requires for a stand-alone non-stub article. I vote merge here and remove the duplication and wordiness. Also this one seems to describe one particular data distribution service, not the general concept. So should have been kept in upper case. English capitalizes proper nouns. Publish–subscribe pattern is probably the closest to the generic concept. W Nowicki (talk) 17:35, 8 November 2013 (UTC)

The result of the proposal was moved. --BDD (talk) 18:13, 19 November 2013 (UTC)

Florida State Road 52

State Road 52 (SR 52) is the major east–west road through northern Pasco County, Florida. The road begins in Bayonet Point at US 19 (SR 55), passes south of San Antonio and St. Leo, and terminates on the south side of Dade City at US 98 and US 301.

Route description
SR 52 exists primarily as a six-lane commercial strip between US 19 and Moon Lake Road. In 2007, the road was widened to six lanes between Moon Lake Road and SR 589 (Suncoast Parkway), but most of the development taking place here has been residential so far. On the Southeast corner of the Suncoast Parkway interchange are a Florida State Police barracks and a Florida Division of Forestry fire tower. The road narrows down to four lanes and then two as it enters Fivay Junction and approaches Shady Hills Road before crossing the Pithlachascotee River. As the road runs along the north side of some agricultural land, it eventually meets with a railroad crossing and then passes a sawmill before encountering US 41 (SR 45) at a section of Pasco County which is known as Gowers Corner. Plans to widen SR 52 near US 41 include the realignment of both roads.

East of US 41 is a community known as the Pilot Country Estates Airport, where residents have their private airplanes. Beyond that, most of the features surrounding SR 52 consist of fledgling farmland and little lakes. At least one other gated community exists east of this point. Other sites along this segment include the Dirt Devil's Speedway and a concrete factory on the southwest corner of CR 583 (Ehren Cutoff). A winery was established at some point in the early 21st Century, and a model aviation club existed in one of two locations along this road segment.

After a pair of bridges over two dry creeks, SR 52 encounters Bellamy Brothers Boulevard (CR 581 North), which leads drivers north through farms and woods before entering the Brooksville. Meanwhile, SR 52 climbs a hill and then drops before approaching the Pasco County Juvenile Detention Center. Almost immediately, the road enters the unincorporated hamlet of Pasco as it crosses a former railroad right-of-way that once ran from St. Petersburg to Trilby. The interchange with I-75 (exit 285) is easily visible before reaching the former grade crossing, but not without approaching a gated community and two truck stops.

Immediately after the I-75 interchange, SR 52 passes by an industrial park and Recreational Vehicle dealership. Continuing east, SR 52 bisects the Mirada development before intersecting CR 577 (Curley Road) immediately south of San Antonio. Continuing east south of St. Leo, SR 52 curves northeast to avoid Williams Cemetery before intersecting with CR 579 (Prospect Road) on the southeast side of the town. Continuing east from this intersection as Clinton Avenue, SR 52 then proceeds to curve back southeast before curving back east again through the small residential community of Lake Pasadena Heights and Clinton Heights before terminating at an intersection with US 98 and US 301 on the south side of Dade City.

History
Former segments of SR 52, have included Roth Lane, in Saint Leo, and North 21st Street and Lock Street in Dade City.

To address recent growth in Pasco County, SR 52 was realigned onto a 7 mi, four-lane, divided highway alignment south of the previous winding two-lane highway alignment through San Antonio and St. Leo, between I-75 and US 98 and US 301. It opened to traffic on February 17, 2023, costing $82 million. The former alignment was transferred to Pasco County as County Road 52 (CR 52).

Related routes
County Road 52 Alternate (CR 52 Alt) is the bannered route of SR 52 south of Dade City. It began at an intersection with CR 579 on the southeast corner of St. Leo just south of the intersection with the former alignment of SR 52 and ran east along Clinton Street through the communities of Lake Pasadena Heights and Clinton Heights before encountering the intersection with US 98 and US 301 on the south side of Dade City. The route continues east of there just outside of the city limits and terminates at CR 35 Alternate (Old Lakeland Highway).

The segment between CR 579 and US 98-301 was incorporated into SR 52 following its realignment on February 17, 2023. The segment east of US 98-301 still exists.

County Road 52 (CR 52) is a county route of SR 52 between west of San Antonio and Dade City. It is a former alignment of SR 52 before its realignment to a 7 mi four-lane divided highway segment to the south. It begins at an intersection with SR 52 west of its intersection with Mirada Boulevard, diverging to the northeast. It then proceeds to run east through San Antonio and St. Leo before running northeast and entering Dade City, where it turns north and becomes 21st Street, before turning right onto Meridian Avenue and running east through Downtown Dade City before terminating at an intersection with US 98 and US 301.

Bad Boy (Larry Williams song)

"Bad Boy" is a song written and recorded by American R&B musician Larry Williams. Specialty Records released it as a single in 1958, but it failed to reach the U.S. Billboard charts. However, music journalist Stephen Thomas Erlewine calls it one of Williams's "genuine rock & roll classics" and notes its popularity among 1960s British Invasion groups, such as the Beatles.

Original song
Williams was among the early rhythm and blues artists to adapt his style to the new rock and roll sound. The lyrics reflect a teenage sensibility: "He's a guy who causes trouble in the classroom, puts chewing gum in little girls' hair, and doesn't want to go to school to learn to read and write", according to critic Richie Unterberger. Musically, he calls it: "rather conventional if energetic early rock'n'roll, sounding like a more pop-oriented Little Richard, as Williams was wont to do. He made it more effective than a common generic early rock'n'roll tune, however, with some start-stop tempos, devious blues-rock guitar, spoken comic 'he's a... bad boy' interjections after lines in the verse, and exaggerated whoops and, most memorably, falsetto commands 'Now Junior, behave yourself!'." Music writer Gene Sculatti compares it to Williams's earlier song "Dizzy, Miss Lizzy", but with backup vocals more like the Coasters "Charlie Brown" and the Everly Brothers "Bird Dog", both Billboard chart hits.

Personnel
The song was recorded at Radio Recorders in Hollywood, California, on August 14, 1958, by:
 * Larry Williams – vocals, piano
 * René Hall – guitar
 * Ted Brinson – bass
 * Earl Palmer – drums
 * Jewell Grant – baritone sax
 * Plas Johnson – tenor sax

The Beatles version
"Bad Boy" is one of several Larry Williams songs the English rock band the Beatles recorded during their career. They recorded it on May 10, 1965, (Williams' birthday), along with Williams' "Dizzy, Miss Lizzy," and it was originally intended solely for release in North America. "Bad Boy" was first released on the American album Beatles VI in June 1965, while "Dizzy, Miss Lizzy" appeared on the British Help! album in August of that year. "Bad Boy" was eventually released in the UK on the compilation album A Collection of Beatles Oldies, in December 1966; it was later released worldwide on the 1988 compilation album Past Masters, Volume One, as well as its 2009 reissue, Past Masters, which combines both volumes.

The song was released as the title track of an EP in Sweden together with "Norwegian Wood (This Bird Has Flown)", "I'm Looking Through You" and "In My Life". This EP sold so well that "Bad Boy" reached numbers seven on the country's sales chart, Kvällstoppen and five on the radio chart Tio i Topp in December 1966.

Chin Kung AM (淨空; pinyin: Jìngkōng; 13 March 1927 – 26 July 2022) was a Chinese Buddhist monk and scholar from the Mahayana tradition. He was the founder of the Corporate Body of the Buddha Educational Foundation, an organization based on the teachings of Pure Land Buddhism. He was known for his teaching of Pure Land Buddhism and work in promoting inter-faith harmony in Australia and the Asia-Pacific region.

Early life
He was born in Lujiang County, Anhui, China as Hsu Yeh-hong (徐業鴻, Xú Yèhóng), and received some classical Confucian education from a tutor in his hometown. At the age of ten, he moved with his family to Fujian where his father was posted as a chief secretary for the country government. When the Second Sino-Japanese War erupted, Hsu's father joined the National Revolutionary Army. Due to the disruptions of war, which he described as 'unsettling and traumatic', he had to hike with other schoolchildren further inland to Guizhou province in the southwest to avoid battlefront areas. He studied at the National Third Kuichou High School during the Second World War, and then at Nanking First Municipal High School following the war. His formal secular education ended in 1947, when his father died, depriving the family of their only breadwinner.

In 1949, after the communist victory in the Chinese Civil War, he moved to Taiwan and spent thirteen years as a clerk at the Shihchien Institute, a training institution for military officers, studying Buddhism and Philosophy in his spare time under the guidance of Professor Fang Tung-mei (方東美), Changkya Khutukhtu (章嘉呼圖克圖 a master in Mongolian Buddhism), and lay teacher Lee Ping-nan (李炳南). He entered the monastic life in 1959, and was ordained at Lintzi Temple at Yuanshan in Taipei, Taiwan. It was then that he received the dharma name of Chin Kung, meaning "pure emptiness". He started studying under Lee Ping-nan in Taizhong in 1958 and trained under him for ten years. At the time, there was an oversupply of monks in Taipei, due to an influx of refugees from mainland China, and there was not enough positions in temples for them. Furthermore, associates of Lee were viewed unfavourably by the establishment, as lay dharma teacher Lee was frowned upon for intruding into what was seen as the domain of ordained monks.

Establishment
Chin Kung was unsuccessful in finding a temple in Taipei, so in 1966, he accepted the offer of lay supporter Han Ying, and moved into her family home for 17 years. Han helped Chin Kung by renting venues for him to give dharma talks, and he also travelled to the south of the island to give teachings, including at Buddhist institutions run by Hsing Yun. Chin Kung also taught at the Chinese Culture University from 1975 to 1980. In 1979, with the help of Han, Chin Kung set up the Hwa Dzan Buddhist Library in Taipei, allowing him a stable physical base for his activities. From the late 1970s on, Chin Kung's international profile increased, and he received requests to travel to Singapore, Hong Kong, the US and Malaysia among other places to give Buddhist teachings, and in the process, set up like-minded local Buddhist groups. In 1997, after Han's death, he relocated his base to Singapore, where he was patronised by businessman and lay Buddhist organiser Li Muyuan, before relocating to Australia in 2002.

Teaching and writing
Chin Kung became well known for using modern technology to spread the Buddha's teachings. Starting in the 1970s, his lectures were recorded on audio, videotapes, and then later on CDs and DVDs and the internet for wide distribution in many temples, where they can be freely passed on, at a time when Buddhist teachings were not readily available in electronic formats. In 2003, a lay disciple named Chen Caiqiong founded Hwazan TV, a cable channel that broadcasts Chin Kung's teachings 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

He is known for in-depth exposition series on many core Mahayana texts, such as the Avatamsaka Sutra (Flower Adornment Sutra), Surangama Sutra, Lotus Sutra (Dharma Flower Sutra), Diamond Sutra, Platform Sutra (Sutra of the Sixth Patriarch Huineng), and Infinite Life Sutra. Since the 1960s, he has been known for his attention to detail in delivering his teachings, rather than building temples. Even in his late 80s, was giving dharma talks for four hours a day. His teaching style comprised focusing on one sutra at a time, and explaining it verse by verse, covering a few passages in each lecture, meaning that a complete lecture series on any given sutra can take several months or more than a year. According to Chinese Buddhism researcher Sun Yafei, Chin Kung has "an exceptional ability to communicate doctrinal points [in] language comprehensible even to people with little education" and credits his "skillful use of ... life experience ... to hold the attention of the audience, and lends his messages persuasive power."

Chin Kung was also known to study the teachings of other philosophical and religious traditions, and was known for emphasising the philosophy of "kindness, fraternity, sincerity, and humility". Since the late 1990s, Chin Kung organised and participated in interfaith forums across the globe, emphasising the importance of education and exhorting religious teachers to set an example by practicing the teachings of the sages and saints in their daily lives, and humbly learning from other religions.

Chin Kung founded and led the Hwa Dzan Society of Propagating Teachings, Hwa Dzan Monastery, Hwa Dzan Buddhist Library, Hwa Dzan Lecture Hall, and The Corporate Body of the Buddha Educational Foundation (1984 ). He sponsored the printing and the distribution of Buddhist texts worldwide, as well as portraits and pictures of various Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, free of charge. As of 2005, he had organised the printing and dissemination of over three million texts and more than a million portraits of Buddhist figures. In his later years, Chin Kung emphasized the Infinite Life Sutra and the Pure Land cultivation method of Buddha recitation, mainly featuring the recitation of Amitābha Buddha's name.

Partly due to his use of technology, he was widely recognised in his adopted homeland of Taiwan and was a frequent presence on television stations such as Hwadzan Television.

He resided in Australia for many years and was based in the regional city of Toowoomba, near the Queensland state capital of Brisbane. In 2001, he established the present form of the Pure Land Learning College Association (originally formed in Taiwan in 1984) in Toowoomba, Australia, to further propagate Buddhism and train Buddhist monks and nuns, and had started (as of 2005) 15 Pure Land Learning Centres across the world. He supported the Buddhist Educational Foundation at the University of Sydney and sponsored the Institution for Peace and Conflict Resolution at the University of Queensland. He also travelled many times to Hong Kong, Singapore, mainland China, to teach Mahayana Buddhism.

In 2016, he worked with the British government and the University of Wales Trinity Saint David to promote study in Sinology in order to revitalize the teaching of the ancient sages of China.

Achievements
In 2002, Chin Kung he was awarded an honorary professorship from the University of Queensland and an honorary doctorate from Griffith University, both in Brisbane, Australia. In December 2003, he was appointed the Honorary Founding Patron of the Australian Centre for Peace and Conflict Studies at the University of Queensland. In April 2004, he was awarded an honorary doctorate by the University of Southern Queensland. In June 2004, he was awarded an honorary doctorate of Syarif Hidayatullan State Islamic University, Jakarta, in Indonesia.

In June 2005, the Most Venerable Chin Kung was appointed a Member of the Order of Australia in the General Division. He was recognised for "service to the Buddhist community in Queensland, particularly through the promotion of Buddhism and the fostering of interfaith activities between diverse ethnic groups, and to the community through support for educational and health institutions".

In September 2017, the "Association of Chin Kung's Friends at UNESCO" was established at the UNESCO Headquarters in Paris, aiming to "promote religious unity, restore religious education, and promote traditional culture".

Understanding of Buddhism
Chin Kung categorized Buddhism in practice into four different types. First, traditional Buddhism, the teachings of Buddha Shakyamuni, which is very rare in our days. Second, religious Buddhism, which does not represent the real Buddhism but has become recognized by the society, as temples nowadays no longer practice intense teachings and meditation as they once did. Third, academic Buddhist studies as taught in many universities today, where Buddhism is treated purely as a philosophy. This is not comprehensive as the dharma covers everything essential to human beings. Finally, the total degeneration of Buddhism into a cult, which came into being in the late 20th century, and does great harm to society. Chin Kung tried to correct these misunderstandings and lead the public back to the original form of Buddhism as taught by Sakyamuni Buddha.

Death
After 62 years of expounding Buddhism, Chin Kung retired from teaching in 2021 and resigned from all of his positions in April 2022. He passed away at the age of 95 on 26 July 2022 in Tainan, Taiwan.

FC Tom Tomsk

FC Tom Tomsk (Футбольный клуб Томь Томск) was a Russian professional football club, based in the Siberian city of Tomsk. The team played in Trud Stadium (Tomsk) before dissolving in 2022.

History
The team was previously named Burevestnik (1957), Tomich (1958, 1961–1963), Sibelektromotor (1959–1960), Torpedo (1964–1967, 1974–1978), Tomles (1968–1973) and Manometr (1979–1987). The club is currently named after the river of Tom, where Tomsk is located.

In the 1990s the team acquired a number of players that would help them begin their ascent out of the Russian Second Division. Viktor Sebelev, Valery Konovalov and Ruslan Akhidzhak were key players of the early part of the decade with Sergei Ageyev, Vyacheslav Vishnevskiy and Dmitry Kudinov strengthening the team as they made a run on the division championship. In 1996, the team finished 2nd in the division, just falling short of promotion to the Russian First Division. In 1997, Tomsk finally achieved a significant goal when they advanced to the First Division with a strong season.

Following promotion, the team acquired a number of new players including Sergei Zhukov, Andrei Talalaev and Mikhail Murashov to help keep the team in the First Division. However, Tomsk suffered a blow when their newly privatised sponsor, Eastern Oil Company (VNK) pulled out and left the team with no sponsor. At this point, advancement was a pipe dream with survival in the tougher division becoming a priority. It was at this point that the team also had to upgrade their stadium to new standards of the league.

The team played middling football for several years until the arrival of a new sponsor brought in much-needed funds and allowed the team to acquire new players and begin to compete. Third-place finishes in 2002 and 2003 left the team just short of promotion. However, the 2004 season brought new joy and Tomsk finished second in the division, earning promotion to the Russian Premier League for the 2005 season. The 2005 season saw Tomsk survive their first year in top-flight football with a 10th-place finish. In 2006, the team improved its position slightly with an 8th-place finish but in 2007, the club slipped to an 11th-place finish.

The former jersey sponsor Tomskneft, a local subsidiary of Yukos, has recently been sold to new investors. Today, the team is sponsored by the regional authorities.

The club's directors disclosed that the club needed to raise funds or it would go out of business due to debts of 200 million roubles in June 2009.

At the end of the 2018–19 season, they qualified for the Premier League promotion play-offs, but lost to FC Ufa with an aggregate score of 1–2.

In the 2020–21 Russian Football National League, Tom finished in the relegation zone, but remained in the league because two other clubs were disqualified for separate reasons.

Tom failed to receive the license for the 2022–23 FNL season and announced they will apply for the third-tier Russian Football National League 2 license. The FNL2 license was subsequently denied as well due to lack of financial guarantees.

Club records
Largest Margin of Victory — Dynamo Yakutsk – 9–1 (1995), FC Sakhalin Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk – 8–0 (1993), PFC Spartak Nalchik 8–0 (1998)

Largest Margin of Defeat – FC Dynamo Barnaul 0–7 (1962)

All time Leading Scorer – 🇷🇺 Viktor Sebelev – 83 goals in 287 matches (1989–2004)

Most goals in a season – 🇷🇺 Ruslan Akhidzhak – 18 goals in 21 matches (1994), 🇷🇺 Denis Kiselyov – 18 goals in 37 matches (2004)

Reserve squad
A farm club FC Tom-2 Tomsk began competing professionally in the third-tier Russian Professional Football League in the 2014–15 season. The team was dissolved after the 2015–16 season.

Hayes Carll

Joshua Hayes Carll (born January 9, 1976), known professionally as Hayes Carll, is a singer-songwriter. A native of The Woodlands, Texas, his style of roots-oriented songwriting has been noted for its plainspoken poetry and sarcastic humor.

Career
After releasing his debut album, Flowers & Liquor, in 2002, Carll was voted Best New Act by the Houston Press. Since then he's been compared to other Texas songwriters, including Townes Van Zandt, who he said "ruined me and saved me at the same time." He released his second album, Little Rock, in 2004. Produced by R.S. Field, Little Rock was the first self-released album to reach No. 1 on the Americana Chart. Carll signed with Lost Highway records in 2006 and released his next album, Trouble in Mind, in 2008. It was ranked No. 60 of the year by The Village Voice. "She Left Me For Jesus," which appeared on Trouble in Mind, was the Americana Music Association Song of the Year 2008. Four songs by Carll appeared in the 2010 film Country Strong, three of which also appeared on the film's second soundtrack album, Country Strong: More Music from the Motion Picture.

KMAG YOYO & Other American Stories was released in 2011. KMAG YOYO is military slang for "Kiss my ass, guys, you're on your own." It received a nomination for Best Album by the Americana Music Association in 2011, and Spin voted it No. 3 in the category of "Best Country/Americana". American Songwriter voted the song "Another Like You" the No. 1 song of 2011, and the album No. 6. Rolling Stone ranked "KMAG YOYO" at No. 46 of best singles of 2011, and the album No. 47 on their list of "50 Country Albums Every Rock Fan Should Own." After KMAG's success, Carll left Lost Highway Records. In 2015 he went into the studio with producer Joe Henry to record Lovers and Leavers and then released the album in April 2016 on his own Highway 87 Records to great critical acclaim.

Carll was nominated for a Grammy Award in 2016, Best Country Song, for "Chances Are". In 2019, he released his sixth album, What It Is, on Dualtone Records. He re-recorded many of his songs, including duets with Ray Wylie Hubbard and his wife, Allison Moorer, for 2020's Alone Together Sessions. His latest album, You Get It All, was released on October 29, 2021 on Dualtone Records.

Symbols in written logic
What's the name for the symbols in written logic that look just like this? Should this article link to them? Tzarius 01:53, 22 July 2005 (UTC)

 * Do you refer to the 3-dots meaning "therefore" [∴] and its partner "because" ]∵] --Mdwyer 16:54, 2005 August 31 (UTC)

This site has reasonable seeming references indicating that the inverted asterism has nothing to do with "because". http://members.aol.com/jeff570/set.html

Upside down
What's the name of the upside-down asterism? I would propose the name Msiretsa. --Abdull 13:39, 19 August 2005 (UTC)

 * Um... yeah. I do not see a unicode entry for the upside down version. Why IS it upside down? I'm going to replace it on the article so it at least looks a little more uniform --Mdwyer 16:54, 2005 August 31 (UTC)
 * I think this would be a proposed character in Unicode. 46.130.144.210 (talk) 20:31, 18 September 2016 (UTC)
 * It is an inverted asterism'. All the best: Rich Farmbrough'' 14:56, 24 March 2024 (UTC).

 * Eight days too soon? Or just ? 𝕁𝕄𝔽 (talk) 15:09, 24 March 2024 (UTC) I withdraw. I see that Wikisource even has a template for it. --𝕁𝕄𝔽 (talk) 16:53, 24 March 2024 (UTC)

Ambiguity
The article is ambiguous about whether asterisms separate subchapters, divisions smaller than subchapters, or both. — Hippietrail 17:58, 27 December 2005 (UTC)

Asterism Usage
Nowadays, which fonts contain the asterism? DaemonDivinus 23:11, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

Example?
Can somebody add an example to this page? it needs one, it's sort of hard to see what it's supposed to do. --Awiseman 04:53, 1 November 2006 (UTC)
 * As far as I understand, something like this:
 * He got hit and was knocked unconscious...
 * He woke up in a dark alley...
 * I've seen the *** version used in a few books I've read. Most notably by Wilbur Smith - 62.20.157.245 19:38, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
 * I've seen the *** version used in a few books I've read. Most notably by Wilbur Smith - 62.20.157.245 19:38, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

 * A classic 1922 example of asterisms in use has been added as an image. Note that this example also provides an instance of the asterism being obsolete: later editions of the work (not counting facsimiles), of which there are several, all use different symbols for section breaks.Choor monster (talk) 19:38, 21 October 2012 (UTC)

Forest
removed the following text:
 * It should not be confused with the similar-looking Chinese character 森, meaning "forest", composed of three "tree" radicals 木 in the same formation.

Edit summary was (When will you ever be able to confuse this with a Chinese Character?)

After reading about the Japanese versions of Animal Crossing games, for one. --Damian Yerrick (talk | stalk) 06:51, 17 June 2007 (UTC)

 * Why would anoyone think there was an asterism in the Animal Crossing article? One would have to be rather dense to confuse the two. Do Asterisms exist in Chinese Script? Because of it's obscure status in Roman script, I doubt it. So then, where would you possible encounter both to confuse them? It isn't as if someone would assume that sort of thing. It was really quite unnecessary. JRNorbergé 07:16, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

What do you call an asterism rotated by -30 degrees?
There's a character I see in books a century old and older that is three equal spaced dots (not asterisks) with the first two dots horizontally† aligned and the third dot to the right of the first two and equidistant from both.

Obviously I can't draw it here because I can't find any code or character name for it.

Whatever it is, it should be mentioned on this page as a cross reference similarly to therefore and because. ZoneAlarm5 (talk) 17:19, 16 May 2009 (UTC)

†May be you mean vertically aligned? The way you describe it here is not compatible with Euclidean geometry, I think.. Plus the character you describe consists of dots, and probably resembles therefore sign or because sign. (sorry for the dagger, I do not know how to insert an asterisk without being transformed to bullet)

About the origin of the name
I think this word comes from the word αστερισμός (Asterismōs, constellation in Greek), rather than directly from αστήρ (astēr, star), for obvious reasons having to do with the number of the stars included in the symbol. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mkaravel (talk • contribs) 22:39, 13 December 2011 (UTC)

Inconsistency between article:Asterism and Article:Therefore sign
In the Asterism article, is says that it should not be interpreted as the therefore sign. However therefore sign states: "The therefore sign is sometimes used as a substitute for an asterism ⁂." Does anyone have an idea of how to solve this inconsistency between the the two articles? Textaural (talk) 01:32, 19 April 2014 (UTC)

Image needed
An image of an asterism is needed for those who don't have it in their font (eg me on chrome on android)

I know there's the book page, but there should be a single asterism early on.

md 178.167.254.169 (talk) 11:16, 12 July 2015 (UTC)

This should be an article for Dinkus.
Asterisms are a type of Dinkus - so this article should be about Dinkuses, with a section inside it for Asterisms. But instead, it's currently an article about Asterisms with a section about Dinkuses. DrAnonymous (talk) 02:56, 20 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Yes, I agree. Your logic seems inescapable. But let's see if anyone dissents. --John Maynard Friedman (talk) 18:01, 20 August 2021 (UTC)
 * I started to reformat the article in preparation for a swap but quickly realised that there is a problem. Yes, an asterism is a type of dinkus but it has other uses too. So 'asterism' really does need its own article. So the next question is this: does Dinkus need its own article? Will it ever amount to more than three lines? --John Maynard Friedman (talk) 14:25, 21 August 2021 (UTC)
 * It doesn't make sense to me for Dinkus to be a part of this article, it really should be its own article. Tadfafty (talk) 18:11, 22 September 2021 (UTC)
 * The process is described at Splitting. I had already considered doing it but concluded that it wouldn't be worth the effort for two tiny stubs. But if you are so inclined, go right ahead. --John Maynard Friedman (talk) 19:53, 22 September 2021 (UTC)

William Powell (Canadian politician)

William Powell (1907–1992) was Mayor of Hamilton, Canada, from 1981 to 1982.

Born in St. Helen's, Lancashire, England, his family emigrated to Canada in 1911. While his family returned to England, Powell came to Hamilton in 1921, and eventually found work at Stelco, a steel company based in Hamilton.

In 1958, he ran as the Co-operative Commonwealth Federation candidate in Hamilton East. He placed third with 21.6% of the vote, losing to incumbent Quinto Martini, a Progressive Conservative. Two years later, he was elected as an alderman in Ward 4. He served in this post until 1970. During his time as alderman, he also retired from his work at Stelco.

In 1970, he ran for a seat on the Board of Control, but was unsuccessful. Following his defeat, he assumed the Chairmanship of the Hamilton Region Conservation Authority and stayed in that position for a decade.

In 1980, he defeated incumbent mayor, Jack MacDonald. He served until 1982, when he was defeated by Bob Morrow.

In 1985, he was appointed as alderman for Ward 3 in order to fill a vacancy.
