User talk:Mattderojas

A notice about editing user pages and vandalism Following the vandalizing incident by, I must ask that if you want to make any changes to my user pages (with the exception of template substitution and/or decategorization on the sandbox page), you MUST ask first on this talk page. Failure to do so will result in your edits being vandalism. Repeated incidents may result in you being reported and blocked.

I thank you for your understanding. --  M  (speak/spoken) 22:11, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

Others coming soon.

Sandbox
Hello, Mattderojas. Could you please modify User:Mattderojas/Sandbox so that it does not place the page in inappropriate categories, like Category:Possible copyright violations? Some user pages have copyright violations and so user pages in the category cannot be ignored. Thank you, Kjkolb 07:43, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

Hey, how do I do that? Mattderojas 00:00, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

 * I took care of it for you. I hope you don't mind. :-) First, I substituted the the templates by adding subst: to them, like . After saving, is replaced with the code the template is made with. Then, I removed the part of the code that put the page in the categories. Only certain templates should be substituted ordinarily. It reduces the server strain or something. It should say on the template page whether to substitute or not. -- Kjkolb 09:33, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

Strange things are happening
For some strange reason, I added the two links to non-existing pages.

 * World's Stupidest Internet Videos (a play on Spike TV's World's Most Amazing Videos), and
 * America's... (God knows what) (Don't ask! Seriously, don't ask! It's a variety show!)

Oddly enough, these TV programs don't actually exist. But they are candidates for programs on the XTV network (for crying out loud, another page that I have to create. I've been spending months on this one!)

Images removed from User:Mattderojas/Box1
I removed those images from that page because they are tagged as fair use image. You are not permitted to use them in your userspace, per terms of Fair use criteria item #9. Please do not re-add them. Thanks, --Durin 12:15, 5 June 2006 (UTC)

Understood. I removed a few boxes, and changed the image for one of them. Happy now? Mattderojas Mattderojas 22:34, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

And now for something completely out of whack
All right, who's been messing with my head? (no, not the userbox...) Mattderojas 14:16, 5 June 2006 (UTC)

Is it me, or am I expecting a cease-and-desist letter soon?
There are a few people who I have ticked off, and who are ticking me off. The last thing I need is being banned from the whole site just because I'm not following the rules.

All my user pages are being watched for those who might place it as an article for deletion, which really is stupid because who nominates user pages for deletion?

Sorry guys, I'm only trying to help here. I'm not trying to completely screw up WP. Anyone else who gets on my nerves will expect a pouncing-on. Hey, it's also an official Wikipedia policy. I don't want to yell at anyone, but I just want to maintain my pages. They're not supposed to be messed around or changed or nominated for deletion except ONLY WHEN NECESSARY!! (See example with Durin and the now STUPID userbox!)

Oh yeah, and what the heck are "Invariant Sections," "Front-Cover Texts," and "Back-Cover Texts"? This is why I multi-license my contributions!!

Time to hide back in my Koopa shell. Mattderojas 22:34, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

WKBS-TV (Philadelphia)
I see you've been involved with the problem over there regarding RMc's insistence on adding trivial information. Well, he's still doing it, and I've again contacted administrator Firsfron of Ronchester about this situation. It was Firsfron who agreed with us that the line was trivial, and removed it last night. Rollosmokes 17:15, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Let me see if I have this straight.

1) I add nine words to the WKBS-TV page; 2) Rollosmokes has a hairy conniption fit, insulting me in the process (a common reaction for this guy when someone dares edit "his" pages)); 3) I respond in kind, and 4) I get banned for "personal attacks"!

Boy, that's rich. Are you guys all on the same bowling team or something?

This has gone well beyong the WKBS-TV page; there's principle involved here, which I why I keep pursuing it.

I'm going to edit WKBS-TV one last time. The admins have a choice to make:

1) Leave it alone, or 2) Revert it yet again, which sends the message that if a user jumps up and down and waves his arms (and has the right friends), he can get his way.

Your choice, fellas. RMc 11:33, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

License tagging for Image:TV ARK new.png
Thanks for uploading Image:TV ARK new.png. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:
 * Image use policy
 * Image copyright tags

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Media copyright questions. 13:09, 25 December 2006 (UTC)

 * Added tag --  M  (speak/spoken) 17:02, 25 December 2006 (UTC)

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Sfcw color.png)
Thanks for uploading Image:Sfcw color.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

Image:IONTelevision.png
Hi Matt, I've added non-free use disputed to Image:IONTelevision.png. Every non-free image needs a separate, detailed and relevant rationale for each use, which means that this image needs three.

Non-free use disputed for Image:FlashVideo.png
Thanks for uploading Image:FlashVideo.png. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template.

Fair use rationale for Image:WFLX.png
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:WFLX.png. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too.

Fair use rationale for Image:Abc_stilltheone_77.png
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Abc_stilltheone_77.png. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template.

WPTV
I rewrote the WPTV article. I think it is organaized better. Let me know what you think and if there are any problems with it.

Image:VestronVideo.png
I have tagged Image:VestronVideo.png as no rationale, because it does not provide a fair use rationale.

Image copyright problem with Image:FrizQuadrata.png
Thank you for uploading Image:FrizQuadrata.png. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

The X-2 Package
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article The X-2 Package, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the  notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? B. Wolterding (talk) 15:13, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

Re: Image:Nfl-network-logo.png
The reason why the typeface is white in the version I assume you uploaded, is because on the NFL Network website, it is presented on a blue background, so therefore it would make no sense to produce the typeface in blue against a blue background because readers wouldn't be able to interpret it or it would be very hard to. That's the reason, not because they officially changed the logo, but just because their website has a blue background, many other organizations do they same thing on their website when the same sort of thing occurs, that doesn't mean they actually changed their logo tho. Again, on the NFL Network website, you scroll down a little on the main page, it showcases the current and correct logo, the one I replaced your logo with.

The correct one to use is the one I replaced your logo with. musimax. (talk) 00:47, 30 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Well no, there's more reasons why that logo you uploaded should not be used, but I was just responding to what you wrote, and as for the slight difference in the blue, it's so minimal that the one currently in the article could stay, if not, then how about changing the colour of the blue on the current logo to the one on the logo you uploaded?

Other reasons why your logo should not be used, it has the shaded lines around the edges of the text and football and it is clearly lesser quality then that of the current one; it is smaller therefore readers are less able to get an upclose detailed view of the logo and it is a .png file, the current logo is an .svg file, it is a better quality and crisper version. And svg files are to be used when available over any other file type. musimax. (talk) 01:36, 30 October 2008 (UTC)
 * It is not a newer version of the logo. There is no clear difference in the two to consider them to be separate logos. It has a few slight differences in it, you can pretty much type any logo into a Google image search and you will find the same logo but with tiny differences in them depending on the website. This is just another example of this, it is the same logo but with tiny differences in it, but in the end the are practically the same and the actual correct one to use is the logo that I replaced yours with. Your version is not a new and updated version, the logos are both the same, but the one I replaced yours with is a better representation of the logo and is the actual logo. If you can't understand that, there's nothing more I can do to convince you without regurgitating the same stuff over and over which I am not prepared to do here tonight. So, for the final time, it is not a newer version. musimax. (talk) 01:56, 30 October 2008 (UTC)

Message regarding your use of the No Multi License Template
In case you are not aware, the Wikimedia Foundation has proposed that the copyright licensing terms on the wikis operated by the WMF – including Wikipedia – be changed to include the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike (CC-BY-SA) license in addition to the current GNU Free Documentation License (GFDL) as allowed by version 1.3 of the GFDL. The community has approved this change with 75.8% in favor, and on June 15, 2009, the change will take effect. You currently have NoMultiLicense on your user or user talk page, which states that your edits are licensed under the GFDL only. On or before June 15, this template will be changed to reflect Wikipedia's new licensing terms. If you accept the licensing change, you do not need to do anything (and feel free to remove this message); if you do not accept it, we regret that you will no longer be able to contribute to the encyclopedia.

"Manual" page move
Hi. I just fixed the page move from WCFN to WCIX. You had copied and pasted the contents from one location to the other, and we can't do that. Due to our free licensing, it is vital that articles be kept together with their full histories, and cut-and-paste moves break that requirement. This is important because it's a legal requirement for Wikipedia. Also, the talk page was still at the old location, which is obviously not ideal.

In the future, when you want to move a page, please either use the "move" button, or if that doesn't work, then get help from an administrator who can delete the target page and make the move possible. This can be as simple as tagging the target page for speedy deletion, waiting for it to disappear, and then carrying out the move.

Thanks for understanding. -GTBacchus(talk) 20:21, 9 September 2011 (UTC)

Blackjack Lanza

John Mortl Lanzo (October 14, 1935 – December 8, 2021) was an American professional wrestler, better known by his ring name, Blackjack Lanza. Along with his long-term tag team partner, Blackjack Mulligan, Lanza was one-half of The Blackjacks: "black cowboy hat-wearing, cowboy boot-stomping, rugged hombres who drew money wherever they went".

From the 1960s to 1980s, Lanza wrestled for promotions such as the American Wrestling Association, World Wrestling Association, and the World Wide Wrestling Federation, winning the AWA World Tag Team Championship, WWA World Tag Team Championship, and WWWF World Tag Team Championship alongside Mulligan. He is a member of the WWE Hall of Fame and the Professional Wrestling Hall of Fame.

Early life
Lanza was born on October 14, 1935, to William Lanza and Louise Mortl, and attended the University of Minnesota and worked as a sociology teacher.

Early career (1961–1962)
Lanza, from Minneapolis, Minnesota, was trained by local promoter Verne Gagne and started his wrestling career in 1961. He wrestled a few matches for NWA Mid-America in Birmingham, Alabama, under the name "Joe Lanza". In 1962, he briefly held the NWA Southern Junior Heavyweight Championship.

St. Louis Wrestling Club (1962–1963, 1966–1978)
Lanza had a sporadic wrestling career with the St. Louis Wrestling Club from 1962 to 1963 and again from 1966 to 1978. In February 1969, he had a 60-minute draw against former NWA World Heavyweight Champion Gene Kiniski, solidifying his status as an "instant contender."

American Wrestling Association (1962–1979)
In mid-1962, Lanza returned to Minnesota, where he joined Gagne's American Wrestling Association as Jack Lanza. He teamed with Bobby Duncum and was managed by Bobby Heenan. During his time in the company, his gimmick was that of a Western cowboy. The duo won the AWA World Tag Team Championship on July 23, 1976. In the 1970s, Lanza and Mulligan teamed up to form The Blackjacks. Lanza was a main-eventer when the duo began teaming together. They were managed by Bobby Heenan.

Mid-Atlantic Championship Wrestling (1963)
In 1963, Lanza joined the Charlotte, North Carolina-based Mid-Atlantic Championship Wrestling promotion, wrestling as "Jack Lanza". He left the promotion the following year.

World Wrestling Association (1967–1972)
Lanza wrestled for the Indianapolis, Indiana-based World Wrestling Association from 1967 to 1972. Accompanied by Bobby Heenan, he defeated Wilbur Snyder for the WWA World Heavyweight Championship in September 1967. His reign lasted until August 1969, when he was defeated by Dick the Bruiser. In 1971, The Blackjacks began wrestling in the WWA. In November 1971, they defeated Paul Christy and Wilbur Snyder for the WWA World Tag Team Championship. Their reign lasted until September 1972, when they lost to The Crusher and Dick the Bruiser.

World Wide Wrestling Federation (1973, 1975)
Lanza debuted in the World Wide Wrestling Federation in mid-1973 as "Blackjack Lanza". His regular opponents included André the Giant, Chief Jay Strongbow, and Dean Ho. He left the promotion in December 1973. In 1975, they joined the WWWF. On August 26, 1975, The Blackjacks defeated Dominic DeNucci and Pat Barrett for the WWWF World Tag Team Championship. The match was a two-out-of-three falls match, and the Blackjacks won the match by winning the first and third falls. As part of his tenure in WWWF, Vince McMahon Sr. promised Lanza that he would receive one World singles title shot a month.

NWA Big Time Wrestling (1974–1975)
In January 1974, The Blackjacks joined the Dallas, Texas-based NWA Big Time Wrestling promotion. Later that month, they were named the NWA American Tag Team Champions. Their reign lasted until July 1974, when they were defeated by Ken Patera and Tex McKenzie. In December 1974, he won the vacant NWA American Heavyweight Championship. He lost the championship to Fritz Von Erich later that month.

Georgia Championship Wrestling (1979)
In 1979, Lanza wrestled for Georgia Championship Wrestling. He defeated Bob Armstrong for the NWA Georgia Television Championship in April, holding the championship until August 1979, when he was defeated by Ray Candy.

Late career (1979–1985)
After Georgia Championship Wrestling, Lanza was inactive from wrestling until 1983. He returned to AWA American Wrestling Association where he feuded with Bobby Heenan in bunkhouse matches defeating Heenan in all of them. That same year he reunited with Blackjack Mulligan working St. Louis and AWA. The Blackjacks broke up in 1984. He retired from wrestling in 1985 and worked for WWF as a road agent.

Personal life
Lanza married Barbara Jean Kalil on September 28, 1957, and they lived in Douglas County, Minnesota.

Death
On December 8, 2021, Jim Ross announced via Twitter that Lanza had died. He was 86 years old, and had been in poor health.

Talk:Jungian psychology

Merge with Analytical psychology
Why you remove the merge tag? Analytical psychology and Jungian psychology are synonyms. --pippo2001 23:00, 23 August 2005 (UTC)
 * moved to article page Paul foord 21:09, 20 January 2006 (UTC)

Archetypes
It may be just me, however, I find this article very hard to read due to the language, any chance someone can simplify it by changing a bit of the wording?

This comment is ridiculous: "something foreign to the highly rational, scientifically-oriented Western mind". I believe that Jung had high regard for scientific reasoning, and one of the biggest battles he fought during his professional career was the charge that his research and theories were somehow not scientific. When will people realize that true, deeply understood scientific thought does not preclude things like spirituality or the existence of a "collective unconscious" or even some type of hypernatural entity that might be described as "God". Einstein himself, one of the greatest (western) scientists of all time, was a deeply spiritual man who believed in God, albeit not in the form of an old man with a beard who punishes people for masturbating.

Medical basis for schizophrenia
The section's last paragraph seems garbled. Or maybe I don't have the psychology background? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Cdamama (talk • contribs) 06:26, 7 December 2006 (UTC).

Merge with Carl Jung
I put this tag on for several reasons: 1. Every other thinker (psychoanalysts in particular) have one page for their bio AND a summary of their theory. 2. There is already a basic description of his theory on his page. 3. Every concept on here that needs more explanation than it does or would on the bio page already has its own page.

it seems like there was support for this idea as opposed to the previous merge idea (see Carl Jung talk page), and it's probably more appropriate, so i thought i'd see where the discussion went. i also posted this on the Analytical psychology talk page. Acornwithwings 01:28, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

Rotating-wave approximation

The rotating-wave approximation is an approximation used in atom optics and magnetic resonance. In this approximation, terms in a Hamiltonian that oscillate rapidly are neglected. This is a valid approximation when the applied electromagnetic radiation is near resonance with an atomic transition, and the intensity is low. Explicitly, terms in the Hamiltonians that oscillate with frequencies $$\omega_L + \omega_0$$ are neglected, while terms that oscillate with frequencies $$\omega_L - \omega_0$$ are kept, where $$\omega_L$$ is the light frequency, and $$\omega_0$$ is a transition frequency.

The name of the approximation stems from the form of the Hamiltonian in the interaction picture, as shown below. By switching to this picture the evolution of an atom due to the corresponding atomic Hamiltonian is absorbed into the system ket, leaving only the evolution due to the interaction of the atom with the light field to consider. It is in this picture that the rapidly oscillating terms mentioned previously can be neglected. Since in some sense the interaction picture can be thought of as rotating with the system ket only that part of the electromagnetic wave that approximately co-rotates is kept; the counter-rotating component is discarded.

The rotating-wave approximation is closely related to, but different from, the secular approximation.

Mathematical formulation
For simplicity consider a two-level atomic system with ground and excited states $$|\text{g}\rangle$$ and $$|\text{e}\rangle$$, respectively (using the Dirac bracket notation). Let the energy difference between the states be $$\hbar\omega_0$$ so that $$\omega_0$$ is the transition frequency of the system. Then the unperturbed Hamiltonian of the atom can be written as

 * $$H_0 = \frac{\hbar\omega_0}{2}|\text{e}\rangle\langle\text{e}|-\frac{\hbar\omega_0}{2}|\text{g}\rangle\langle\text{g}|$$.

Suppose the atom experiences an external classical electric field of frequency $$\omega_L$$, given by $$\vec{E}(t) = \vec{E}_0 e^{-i\omega_Lt} +\vec{E}_0^* e^{i\omega_Lt}$$; e.g., a plane wave propagating in space. Then under the dipole approximation the interaction Hamiltonian between the atom and the electric field can be expressed as

 * $$H_1 = -\vec{d} \cdot \vec{E}$$,

where $$\vec{d}$$ is the dipole moment operator of the atom. The total Hamiltonian for the atom-light system is therefore $$H = H_0 + H_1.$$ The atom does not have a dipole moment when it is in an energy eigenstate, so $$\left\langle\text{e}\left|\vec{d}\right|\text{e}\right\rangle = \left\langle\text{g}\left|\vec{d}\right|\text{g}\right\rangle = 0.$$  This means that defining $$\vec{d}_\text{eg} \mathrel{:=} \left\langle\text{e}\left|\vec{d}\right|\text{g}\right\rangle$$ allows the dipole operator to be written as

 * $$\vec{d} = \vec{d}_\text{eg}|\text{e}\rangle\langle\text{g}| + \vec{d}_\text{eg}^*|\text{g}\rangle\langle\text{e}|$$

(with $$^*$$ denoting the complex conjugate). The interaction Hamiltonian can then be shown to be

 * $$H_1 =

-\hbar\left(\Omega e^{-i\omega_Lt} + \tilde{\Omega}e^{i\omega_Lt}\right)|\text{e}\rangle\langle\text{g}| -\hbar\left(\tilde{\Omega}^* e^{-i\omega_Lt} + \Omega^*e^{i\omega_Lt}\right)|\text{g}\rangle\langle\text{e}| $$

where $$\Omega = \hbar^{-1}\vec{d}_\text{eg} \cdot \vec{E}_0$$ is the Rabi frequency and $$\tilde{\Omega} \mathrel{:=} \hbar^{-1}\vec{d}_\text{eg} \cdot \vec{E}_0^*$$ is the counter-rotating frequency. To see why the $$\tilde{\Omega}$$ terms are called counter-rotating consider a unitary transformation to the interaction or Dirac picture where the transformed Hamiltonian $$H_{1,I}$$ is given by

 * $$H_{1,I} =

-\hbar\left(\Omega e^{-i\Delta \omega t} + \tilde{\Omega}e^{i(\omega_L + \omega_0)t}\right)|\text{e}\rangle\langle\text{g}| -\hbar\left(\tilde{\Omega}^* e^{-i(\omega_L + \omega_0)t} + \Omega^* e^{i\Delta \omega t}\right)|\text{g}\rangle\langle\text{e}|, $$

where $$\Delta \omega \mathrel{:=} \omega_L - \omega_0$$ is the detuning between the light field and the atom.

Making the approximation

This is the point at which the rotating wave approximation is made. The dipole approximation has been assumed, and for this to remain valid the electric field must be near resonance with the atomic transition. This means that $$\Delta \omega \ll \omega_L + \omega_0$$ and the complex exponentials multiplying $$\tilde{\Omega}$$ and $$\tilde{\Omega}^*$$ can be considered to be rapidly oscillating. Hence on any appreciable time scale, the oscillations will quickly average to 0. The rotating wave approximation is thus the claim that these terms may be neglected and thus the Hamiltonian can be written in the interaction picture as

 * $$H_{1,I}^{\text{RWA}} =

-\hbar\Omega e^{-i\Delta \omega t}|\text{e}\rangle\langle\text{g}| -\hbar\Omega^* e^{i\Delta \omega t}|\text{g}\rangle\langle\text{e}|. $$

Finally, transforming back into the Schrödinger picture, the Hamiltonian is given by

 * $$H^\text{RWA} =

\frac{\hbar\omega_0}{2}|\text{e}\rangle\langle\text{e}| - \frac{\hbar\omega_0}{2}|\text{g}\rangle\langle\text{g}| - \hbar\Omega e^{-i\omega_Lt}|\text{e}\rangle\langle\text{g}| - \hbar\Omega^* e^{i\omega_Lt}|\text{g}\rangle\langle\text{e}|. $$

Another criterion for rotating wave approximation is the weak coupling condition, that is, the Rabi frequency should be much less than the transition frequency.

At this point the rotating wave approximation is complete. A common first step beyond this is to remove the remaining time dependence in the Hamiltonian via another unitary transformation.

Derivation
Given the above definitions the interaction Hamiltonian is

 * $$\begin{align}

H_1 = -\vec{d}\cdot\vec{E} &= -\left(\vec{d}_\text{eg}|\text{e}\rangle\langle\text{g}| + \vec{d}_\text{eg}^*|\text{g}\rangle\langle\text{e}|\right) \cdot \left(\vec{E}_0 e^{-i\omega_Lt} + \vec{E}_0^* e^{i\omega_Lt}\right) \\ &= -\left(\vec{d}_\text{eg} \cdot \vec{E}_0 e^{-i\omega_Lt}        +\vec{d}_\text{eg} \cdot \vec{E}_0^* e^{i\omega_Lt}\right)|\text{e}\rangle\langle\text{g}| -\left(\vec{d}_\text{eg}^* \cdot \vec{E}_0 e^{-i\omega_Lt}        +\vec{d}_\text{eg}^* \cdot \vec{E}_0^* e^{i\omega_Lt}\right)|\text{g}\rangle\langle\text{e}| \\ &= -\hbar\left(\Omega e^{-i\omega_Lt} + \tilde{\Omega} e^{i\omega_Lt}\right)|\text{e}\rangle\langle\text{g}| -\hbar\left(\tilde{\Omega}^* e^{-i\omega_Lt} + \Omega^* e^{i\omega_Lt}\right)|\text{g}\rangle\langle\text{e}|, \end{align}$$

as stated. The next step is to find the Hamiltonian in the interaction picture, $$H_{1,I}$$. The required unitary transformation is

 * $$\begin{align}U & = e^{iH_0t/\hbar} \\

& = e^{i \omega_0 t/2 (|\text{e}\rangle \langle\text{e}| - |\text{g}\rangle \langle\text{g}|)} \\ & = \cos(\frac{\omega_0 t}{2})\left(|\text{e}\rangle \langle\text{e}| + |\text{g}\rangle \langle\text{g}|\right) + i \sin(\frac{\omega_0 t}{2}) \left(|\text{e}\rangle \langle\text{e}| - |\text{g}\rangle \langle\text{g}|\right) \\ & = e^{-i\omega_0 t/2}|\text{g}\rangle \langle\text{g}| + e^{i \omega_0 t/2} |\text{e}\rangle \langle\text{e}| \\ & = e^{-i\omega_0 t/2}\left(|\text{g}\rangle \langle\text{g}| + e^{i \omega_0 t} |\text{e}\rangle \langle\text{e}|\right) \end{align}$$,

where the 3rd step can be proved by using a Taylor series expansion, and using the orthogonality of the states $$|\text{g}\rangle$$ and $$|\text{e}\rangle$$. Note that a multiplication by an overall phase of $$e^{i \omega_0 t/2}$$ on a unitary operator does not affect the underlying physics, so in the further usages of $$U$$ we will neglect it. Applying $$U$$ gives:

 * $$\begin{align}

H_{1,I} &\equiv U H_1 U^\dagger \\ &= -\hbar\left(\Omega e^{-i\omega_Lt} + \tilde{\Omega}e^{i\omega_Lt}\right)e^{i\omega_0t}|\text{e}\rangle\langle\text{g}| -\hbar\left(\tilde{\Omega}^* e^{-i\omega_Lt} + \Omega^*e^{i\omega_Lt}\right)|\text{g}\rangle\langle\text{e}|e^{-i\omega_0t} \\ &= -\hbar\left(\Omega e^{-i\Delta \omega t} + \tilde{\Omega}e^{i(\omega_L + \omega_0)t}\right)|\text{e}\rangle\langle\text{g}| -\hbar\left(\tilde{\Omega}^*e^{-i(\omega_L + \omega_0)t} + \Omega^* e^{i\Delta \omega t}\right)|\text{g}\rangle\langle\text{e}|\. \end{align}$$

Now we apply the RWA by eliminating the counter-rotating terms as explained in the previous section:

H_{1,I}^{\text{RWA}} = -\hbar\Omega e^{-i\Delta\omega t}|\text{e}\rangle\langle\text{g}| + -\hbar\Omega^* e^{i \Delta\omega t}|\text{g}\rangle\langle\text{e}| $$

Finally, we transform the approximate Hamiltonian $$H_{1,I}^{\text{RWA}}$$ back to the Schrödinger picture:

 * $$\begin{align}

H_1^\text{RWA} &= U^\dagger H_{1,I}^{\text{RWA}} U \\ &= -\hbar\Omega e^{-i\Delta \omega t}e^{-i\omega_0 t}|\text{e}\rangle\langle\text{g}| -\hbar\Omega^* e^{i\Delta \omega t}|\text{g}\rangle\langle\text{e}|e^{i\omega_0t} \\ &= -\hbar\Omega e^{-i\omega_Lt}|\text{e}\rangle\langle\text{g}| -\hbar\Omega^* e^{i\omega_Lt}|\text{g}\rangle\langle\text{e}|. \end{align}$$

The atomic Hamiltonian was unaffected by the approximation, so the total Hamiltonian in the Schrödinger picture under the rotating wave approximation is

H^\text{RWA} = H_0 + H_1^\text{RWA} = \frac{\hbar\omega_0}{2}|\text{e}\rangle\langle\text{e}| - \frac{\hbar\omega_0}{2}|\text{g}\rangle\langle\text{g}| - \hbar\Omega e^{-i\omega_Lt}|\text{e}\rangle\langle\text{g}| - \hbar\Omega^*e^{i\omega_Lt}|\text{g}\rangle\langle\text{e}|. $$

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Collegiate.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Collegiate.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot (talk) 20:52, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Albert Lesage
A tag has been placed on Albert Lesage requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. D ARTH P ANDA duel 19:32, 30 October 2008 (UTC)

RCMP Security Service

The RCMP Security Service (Service de sécurité de la GRC) was a branch of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) that had responsibility for domestic intelligence and security in Canada. It was replaced by the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS) in 1984 on the recommendation of the McDonald Commission, which was called in the wake of major scandals during the 1970s.

History
The RCMP carried out extensive security service work since the force was reconstituted in 1920, when it merged with the Dominion Police and became the federal police agency solely responsible for national security. Between the wars, this work was overwhelmingly directed at the Communist Party, as well as labour unions and Marxists more generally. It was in 1946 that the RCMP's Intelligence Section was in charge of national security work.

In 1950, the RCMP's Special Branch was formally established to conduct its counterintelligence operations. Prior to that, the branch was a component of the RCMP's Criminal Investigation Branch, where political security operations and criminal investigations were not distinct before 1936. The first Special Branch class was held in 1953.

In 1962, the branch was renamed the Directorate of Security and Intelligence, and in 1970, it became the RCMP Security Service. During the 1960s, it targeted Quebec nationalists, particularly the militant Front de libération du Québec (FLQ).

As a result of illegal tactics, including illegal surveillance and vigilantism, used by the RCMP Security Service and the consequent scandals surrounding the RCMP, intelligence work was transferred to a new agency, CSIS in 1984 through the implementation of Bill C-9.

Legacy
The RCMP has again become involved in intelligence work, particularly related to counterterrorism, following the bombing of Air India Flight 182 in 1985 and the 9/11 attacks under the Security Offences Act.

Talk:ISO 9660

ECMA-119 vs. ISO 9660
The note "this standard is identical to ISO 9660 (but please be careful because it has several small incompatibilities with real-life iso images)" for ECMA-119 lacks proof or reference. What are the actual differences? I don't think there are any because the 2nd edition of ECMA-119 states that it is "technically identical with ISO 9660" (see Brief History). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.176.238.81 (talk • contribs) 20:39, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

 * I agree. Unless someone can quote differences that we can verify, this unspecific warning is no help to anyone. -- Tempel 19:09, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

 * Here's a minor one. In section 8.5, the table over the fields in a Supplementary Volume Descriptor contains some significant techical differences. ECMA-119 specifies several fields as 'a-characters' or 'd-characters' or 'd-characters, SEPARATOR 1, SEPARATOR 2', while ISO 9660 specifies these fields as using a1-characters or d1-characters correspondingly.

 * The text descriptions of the fields do specify 'a1' and 'd1', but someone who didn't double-check things might go with the table. -- Athulin (talk) 10:13, 1 July 2014 (UTC)

 * A major difference is, of course, the changes introduced in ISO 9660 Amendment 1 in 2013. The claim of 'technical identity' in ECMA-119 is therefore no longer correct. (Though it must be admitted it is a bit of a chore to refer to ISO 9660:1988/Amd.1:2013 to refer to the latest text.) Athulin (talk) 09:35, 28 December 2014 (UTC)

 * That difference has since disappeared, as ECMA-119 has been issued in a later version (rev. 3), covering also the Amendment 1 changes. If there remain any technical differences (except such minor differences that ISO refers to the ISO character code standards and ECMA refers to ECMAs code standards) they are almost certainly unintentional. Athulin (talk) 18:41, 27 October 2019 (UTC)

Misunderstanding of the Standard?
Is that something that should be included? I'm thinking of the 8+3 file name restriction that far too many people say is a restriction in ISO 9660, when it's either a restriction selected by a CD-ROM publisher, or a failure of an implementation to implement the standard correctly. I think 2.1 makes that clear: 'Level of Interchange' is something that applies to a CD-ROM, not to a subset of the standard. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Athulin (talk • contribs) 10:16, 1 January 2016 (UTC)

Applications
The lead indicates this is used for data exchange between different operating systems. I know it is used on CDROMs. What other media is this used on. I think this background should be in to the article and, scanning the lead and TOC, I don't see it there. ~Kvng (talk) 14:31, 10 November 2016 (UTC)

 * The ISO 9660 standard is formulated in a way that makes it independent of the carrier medium. While the original was intended for CD-ROM, there is no technical reasons to limit it to CD-ROM only.  That makes the question of other medium almost uninteresting: you can implement ISO-9660 on a floppy disk if you care to, without breaking the standard.

 * As to 'data exchange' ... that was not the only reason for the standard. perhaps not even the most important reason. Early on, High Sierra was regarded as a data publication standard (CD-ROMs are read-only).  Much of what to IT people seems strange in the standard, such as volume sets, are clearly targeted to the field of publication, particularly publication of serials.Athulin (talk) 19:04, 28 December 2016 (UTC)

 * To add to my previous comment, I'm more and more leaning to the idea that ISO 9660 was primarily intended for publication of technical documentation in serial form, or similar types of publication, like regulatory information. Examples of this type of publication is computer documentation, which in the 1980s typically took the form of dozens of binders, and heaps of printed pages which the customer was intended to insert in those binders, and remove when updates and corrections appeared some months later. Or when field service personnel were on-site, and needed to refer to some volumes that were sufficiently seldom used that keeping them updated was just not practical.  Technical infrastructure components also comes (or came) with similar forms of documentation: telephone exchange systems, power stations, railway carriages and motors, buses, air planes, etc.

 * In that kind of context, some of the restrictions present in ISO 9660, for example the one that foreign character sets (used in supplementary and enhanced volume descriptors, and in extended attribute records anywhere) may only be used after agreement between originator and recipient. In 'normal' settings that is simply not practical, but in a situation where the recipient is a customer to the originator, who also may produce the receiving software (file system driver, or separate reading application), it makes considerably better sense. 78.82.180.168 (talk) 05:42, 29 June 2020 (UTC)

Copyright issues
I am afraid the information on this page might be copyrighted. The International Standards Organisation owns all copyrights regarding ISO 9660, and redistribution of their $150 documentation is illegal. This page bypasses this by providing anyone with free information regarding CDs.

Please take this page down.

--  ApChrKey    Talk 23:21, 4 September 2020 (UTC)

 * Might be copyrighted? Copyright does not relate to information, it relates to form. The form that the copyright owner uses is what is copyrighted, not the information in it.  Thus, copies of pages, or direct quotations of text would be copyrighted, but paraphrases of the same information would not normally be. (Some copyright apply to information, but that is not relevant here.)

 * Please identify the parts that infringe copyright. That makes it easier to investigate or discuss your claim. Alternatively, identify your locus standi.

 * As for 'free information' ... ECMA 119 is almost entirely the same as ISO 9660, with only some minor technical difference of no practical importance. ECMA 119 is free already.  Athulin (talk) 11:20, 21 September 2020 (UTC)

File name character encoding in Rock Ridge?
As of this edit, said:

"Longer file names (up to 255 bytes) and fewer restrictions on allowed characters (support for lowercase, etc.) with the ISO-8859 or UTF-16 character set"

That edit added the "with the ISO-8859 or UTF-16 character set" part, along with the reference. (I cleaned it up a bit to say "with ISO/IEC 8859 or UTF-16 character sets".)

The reference says:

"Joliet uses UTF-16 coding while Rock Ridge uses ISO-8859 or UTF-16 based chars and allows 255 octets. Using UTF-8, Rock Ridge allows 85 Japanese characers or 255 US-ASCII chars."

It also says that "Rock Ridge became a IEEE standard around 1992.", although I have been unable to find it from standards.ieee.org. The IEEE P1282 draft version 1.12 claims that it was "Adopted 1994-07-08", but I couldn't find any 1282 standard with a search for 1282 on standards.ieee.org.

So if we use the 1.12 draft, it says:

 * 3.4 File Naming Conventions
 * In all fields defined in ISO 9660, the character set to be used shall be as specified in ISO 9660. The character set to be used in the System Use Entries defined herein shall depend upon whether the entries are recorded in a Directory Hierarchy (defined in ISO 9660:6.8.2) associated with a Primary Volume Descriptor or in one associated with a Supplementary Volume Descriptor.
 * 3.4.1 Primary Volume Descriptor File Naming Convention
 * Within a Directory Hierarchy identified by a Primary Volume Descriptor of an ISO 9660 volume, "SL" Component Content (see 4.1.3.1) and "NM" Name Content (see 4.1.4) shall be as defined in POSIX:2.2.2.32 and shall use the portable filename character set as defined in POSIX:2.2.2.60.
 * 3.4.2 Supplementary Volume Descriptor File Naming Convention
 * Within a Directory Hierarchy identified by a Supplementary Volume Descriptor of an ISO 9660 volume, the character set used in the System Use Entries defined for the RRIP shall be the coded graphic character sets identified by the escape sequences in the Supplementary Volume Descriptor (see ISO 9660:7.4.2).
 * 3.4.2 Supplementary Volume Descriptor File Naming Convention
 * Within a Directory Hierarchy identified by a Supplementary Volume Descriptor of an ISO 9660 volume, the character set used in the System Use Entries defined for the RRIP shall be the coded graphic character sets identified by the escape sequences in the Supplementary Volume Descriptor (see ISO 9660:7.4.2).

It appears that, if you're not lucky enough to own a printed version of IEEE Std 1003.1-1988, you're out of luck - my copy is either no longer in my possession or stashed away in a box in a storage unit, and all the searches I did online for 1003.1-1988 found the interpretations document, which is completely useless if I want to see what "POSIX:2.2.2.32" and "POSIX:2.2.2.60" are, so I'll just go with the current Single UNIX Specification.

The Portable Filename Character Set is A-Z. a-z, 0-9, ., _, and -. That's it - no ISO 8859/anything, no UTF-16, not UTF-8, nothing. So I'm not even seeing all of printable ASCII there, much less any non-ASCII characters from an ISO 8859 character set or from Unicode (whether encoded with UTF-16 or with UTF-8), for a Directory Hierarchy identified by a Primary Volume Descriptor of an ISO 9660 volume.

As for a Directory Hierarchy identified by a Supplementary Volume Descriptor of an ISO 9660 volume, section 7.4.2 of ISO 9660 says "The characters of the coded graphic character sets identified by the escape sequences in a Supplementary Volume Descriptor are referred to as c-characters." Section 8.5 "Supplementary Volume Descriptor" contains subsection 8.5.6 "Escape Sequences (BP 89 to 120)", which says:

 * This field shall specify one or more escape sequences according to ISO 2022 that designate the G0 graphic character set and, optionally, the G1 graphic character set to be used in an 8-bit environment according to ISO 2022 to interpret descriptor fields related to the Directory Hierarchy identified by this Volume Descriptor (see 7.4.4). If the G1 set is designated, it is implicitly invoked into columns 10 to 15 of the code table.
 * These escape sequences shall conform to ISO 2022, except that the ESCAPE character shall be omitted from each designating escape sequence when recorded in this field. The first or only escape sequence shall begin at the first byte of the field. Each successive escape sequence shall begin at the byte in the field immediately following the last byte of the preceding escape sequence. Any unused byte positions following the last sequence shall be set to (00).
 * If all the bytes of this field are set to (OO), it shall mean that the set of a l-characters is identical with the set of a-characters and that the set of dl-characters is identical with the set of d-characters. In this case both sets are coded according to ISO 646.
 * If all the bytes of this field are set to (OO), it shall mean that the set of a l-characters is identical with the set of a-characters and that the set of dl-characters is identical with the set of d-characters. In this case both sets are coded according to ISO 646.
 * If all the bytes of this field are set to (OO), it shall mean that the set of a l-characters is identical with the set of a-characters and that the set of dl-characters is identical with the set of d-characters. In this case both sets are coded according to ISO 646.

which would seem to indicate that *any* encoding supported by ISO/IEC 2022 can be used. There are several of them, including several "Right-hand Part of ... 8859/n" for various values of n - presumably those mean that the G1 set is the aforementioned 'Right-hand Part" with the G0 set being printable ASCII - in addition to "UTF-8 Level {1,2,3}" and "UTF-16 Level {1,2,3}".

So it sounds as if Rock Ridge could use any of that large set of encodings, including the Third supplementary set of Mosaic Characters/ Videotex and Facsimile; if the intent in the reference was to say that it can support the 8859/n encodings (and UTF-8?) in addition to UTF-16, that's true, but incomplete. Guy Harris (talk) 08:28, 7 April 2022 (UTC)

 * I guess you know better 😊 Seeaver (talk) 20:34, 8 April 2022 (UTC)

 * The reference to ISO-IR.pdf must be taken carefully. It is not restricted to escape character sequences that can be used in ISO 9660, but also includes other sequences.  ISO 9660 is restricted to those that can be used by ISO 2022, and this excludes those mentioned in ISO-IR 2.8 and subsections ... which is where various UTF-? and UCS-? code tables are mentioned.  ISO 9660 (as currently specified) does not allow Unicode.  (Quick check in ISO/IEC DIS 9660:2022 -- which makes looking for ISO 2022-related stuff a real pain -- does not show any changes on this ... basically 9.5.7 and 10.5.19.)
