Air Suspension option needs to be added to US spec first generation legacy
I have a japanese built USDM 1990 Legacy Wagon LS which originally had the ride height adjustable air suspension installed. I have since removed all air suspension components except the dash button and retrofitted standard MacPherson strut type suspension. The original system had both manual height adjustment using the dash button but also reduced ride height based on vehicle speed. It was nearly exactly the same system as available on the XT6. Ciper (talk) 06:16, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

Chile isn't right hand driven
The article said "perhaps because all three (Japan, New Zealand, Chile) are right-hand drive markets" to explain why this model had been released on those markets before than others. I'm aware of Chile is a Left-Hand drive market.

The Legacy isn't 4WD, it's AWD
n/t

 * Yup I've changed it to AWD. 4wd typically implies that the car can either be manually changed between 2wd and 4wd or the car has a "hi" and "lo" setting. awd on the other hand is almost always the preferred term for permanent power to 2 wheels without any settings like that. subaru uses the term "awd" themselves. finally in other countries (eg australia) the term "4wd" is the term used to mean "SUV". awd is less confusing.

Front Engined or Mid Engined?
Considering the Subaru boxer engine is mounted between the front wheel and axle... shouldn't it be considered mid-engined? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.158.39.139 (talk) 07:49, 7 October 2007 (UTC)
 * No, the engine is mounted ahead of the front axle. Have a look at any of the cut-away illustrations on Subaru's web sites. Paul Fisher 01:04, 31 October 2007 (UTC)

 * At best it would be up for FMR layout consideration, but I doubt it would even meet that criteria. Ayocee 03:56, 31 October 2007 (UTC)

Left or right? Twin - turbo

 * Turbocharged versions continued to be available in most non-US markets. Speciality touring and racing versions were available in Japan, as well as the DOHC 2 liter twin sequential turbocharged version on both the sedan and wagon. The twin turbo can only be installed on left-hand drive vehicles because the turbo on the left side interferes with both the brake master cylinder and steering linkage, among other things.

There is an internal inconsistency in this paragraph. If the vehicle is left-hand drive, then the master cylender and steering linkage will be on the left. But Japan is a right-hand-drive country. Paul Fisher (talk) 09:17, 28 November 2007 (UTC)

Fuel Economy info doesn't display in infobox
On the first generation, the information has been added and it appears to be coded correctly, but for some reason, it won't display. Any Ideas?(Dddike (talk) 10:17, 9 January 2008 (UTC))
 * Fuel economy is not supported by that infobox see Template:Infobox automobile or Template:Infobox Automobile generation it must be written on the main article. Those infoboxes cant be any larger. — Typ932T  21:12, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

Center differential not a viscous coupling
The Subaru manual transmission uses a true gear type viscous limited slip center differential, not a simple viscous coupling. The secondary shaft in the transmission is hollow with the pinion shaft extending through it to the center diff. It provides a 50/50 torque balance under acceleration and deceleration up to the point of wheel slip, then the VLSD begins to send more torque to the wheels with more traction.

And BTW, Subaru used the term “Full Time 4WD” through 1991, before changing to “AWD” in 1992 (USDM). There were no changes between these EJ transmissions, it was just a marketing thing.

 * For advise on mechanical matters, try using Subaru Fan Club websites. There are multiple sites than can offer suggestions. Wikipedia, unfortunately, is just an encyclopedia that describes the vehicle, but doesn't offer suggestions for repair. WP:NOTHOWTO (Regushee (talk) 15:35, 13 July 2008 (UTC))

Merger
Please see the poll on Talk:Subaru Outback regarding the merger and weigh in your opinion. MarcusHookPa (talk) 18:27, 17 May 2012 (UTC)

Due to the similarities between both the Subaru Legacy and Subaru Outback, I believe the Outback article should be merged with the Legacy article (and its generational sub-articles).

Listed below is my rationale:
 * The Outback is little more than a Legacy with a slightly higher ground clearance, unique wheels, plastic body add-ons (flared wheel arches and door cladding) and a different badge. Both models share the all-wheel drive layout and even the same sedan and wagon body styles.
 * Since the vehicles are so similar, content duplication is inevitable.
 * Generational changes are released simultaneously for both Legacy and Outback.
 * In Japan the Outback was originally a trim level of the Legacy, designated "Legacy Grand Wagon" and later renamed "Legacy Lancaster".

OSX (talk • contributions) 11:25, 13 May 2010 (UTC)

 * No objection from me. swa  q  15:40, 13 May 2010 (UTC)

 * Due to the increase in information about the Legacy and Outback (I accept the verdict guilty as charged) I don't think this would be a bad idea at all. Most of the specific information about the Outback could be added to the generation breakdown pages so that the information won't get lost and mentions to the Outback could be added to the main Legacy page. Or maybe something else. I've noticed at [hit stats] that the Legacy averages about 900 "views" a day, and the Outback about 600 a day. (Regushee (talk) 15:23, 14 May 2010 (UTC))

I think no need to merge the Subaru Legacy and Subaru Outback pages. Although the Outback is based on the Legacy, they have different characters. Legacy is very popular in Japan, and there are many limited editions offered there. The Outback is a crossover wagon, an alternative to SUV. It's popular in the USA and Australia. Basically I am agree with rational reason written above, but I think people who search for Legacy are more car-enthusiast than Outback searchers. (User:Celica21gtfour) —Preceding undated comment added 03:13, 15 May 2010 (UTC).

 * I don't really have a dog in this fight, but while I can understand the intention, I see a couple of practical problems to merging them:
 * Even allowing for the removal of duplicated info, Subaru Outback is 51k, while Subaru Legacy is 33k (and it's already been split into generational articles). Looking at it from the opposite perspective, if the two pages were already merged, I think I'd be happy to split them just to relieve some of the bloat.
 * I think it would be inconsistent to have Subaru Outback as a redirect, yet leave Subaru Baja as a standalone article—it seems to just be a Legacy/Outback pick-up truck. But that means yet more merging, and more bloat...
 * According to its own page, the Outback "saved the company" (although I don't know quite how US-centric the statement is; it may only refer to the American division). That's a reasonable claim of significance on its own.
 * The two cars' generations don't match up, making navigation a wee bit tricky. A reader types in "Subaru Outback", gets redirected to the Legacy page, and then sees links telling him to go to one of the various sub-articles. That's a hop or two too many for my liking.
 * Subaru themselves treat it as a standalone vehicle on their various regional websites. This is also true of third-party car sites (in the UK) like Parkers, Auto Trader, etc.
 * All these wee points make me more sanguine about retaining the status quo. My concerns might be totally unfounded—there might be a perfectly decent article about both to be written—but without seeing it, I'm inclined to think they're better kept apart. Although as I said, I don't have strong feelings on the matter, even though I may becoming a Legacy owner in the near future... --DeLarge (talk) 20:51, 21 May 2010 (UTC)

 * Addendum: just to cloud the issue further, we don't seem to have a consistent approach with existing precedents, at least from what I can see after a cursory glance at similar vehicles from other manufacturers. The Audi A6 allroad quattro (with a name suggestive of it being merely a variant of the A6) is a standalone article, while the more distinctly branded Volvo XC70 merely redirects to the Volvo V70 page. Strangely, though, the saloon/sedan variants (Volvo S70) are separated from the wagon/estate. Yeesh. Strike that last bit, the Volvo vehicle line seems a little more complicated than I first thought, and probably should be described separately. --DeLarge (talk) 11:07, 25 May 2010 (UTC)

Subaru treats them as different vehicles, and the Outback Sport is not a Legacy-derived vehicle. The Legacy page is unwieldy enough as it is, thanks to one certain contributor and will be a clusterbomb of irrelevant information if the two are merged. Keep the pages separate.--A Second Man in Motion (talk) 04:29, 15 June 2010 (UTC)

I feel they should stay separate, especially since the Outback wagon completely split off from the Legacy sedan in 2008. So what if the Outback is heavily based on the Legacy? The Forester is heavily based on the Impreza, but that's a separate model line. Also, the Outback Sport should be included in the Outback article as well, and separated from the Impreza, in my opinion.fahrer4184 (talk) 21:48, 26 August 2010 (UTC)

 * The merging of the Outback article into this one is proving to be very awkward, and the fear of bloat seems to be resulting in the diminishing of information for Outback specific trim lines. Another issue is the misalignment of platform generations ( e.g. BE/BH, BL/BP, etc) to model years depending on the market in which the car is sold. In North America, the generation is at least one model year later than represented in the article. For example, an Outback owner in North America with a model year 2004 (BH) would be confused by this article referring to their car as 1999 - 2003. End consumers in most parts of the world know model years, NOT platform designations. In markets where the Outback is treated as its own model, the generation numeration alignment is also off, as the Outback in North America starts with Legacy Generation 2, but is referred to as Outback Generation 1. If these articles must be merged, a better care for preservation of information depth should be considered. 76.14.240.12 (talk) 18:40, 17 April 2012 (UTC)

 * As far as I know, the Outback sections in the Legacy articles are the same as before. Please re-instate any missing content if anything was accidentally excluded in the mergers.

 * Most of the world does not use model years, essentially only North America does. The rest of the world uses calendar years, so the article uses both calendar years and model codes. Since Japan is the home market, it is fair to use the years that apply for that market so bias between Europe and America is avoided. Most markets use the same years as Japan. However, North American models have sometimes been delayed as they are produced in a different factory in Indiana. Even before the Outback was merged with the Legacy page, the Legacy article still avoided US model years.

 * Since North American versions of foreign cars are often quite different to the versions sold elsewhere, I think it is important to mention these differences in a section dedicated to North America. I don't believe an article on a Japanese car sold in similar form globally should revolve around an altered version sold in another market. The Japanese model is the base car—that is; the North American version was modified to meet regulations and consumer preferences for that market. Conversely, the Chrysler Voyager article should revolve around the North American version of that model since that is the original market. The altered version sold in Europe and Australia should not be given priority, but should be detailed in a subsection highlighting any relevant changes.

 * As you pointed out, there is the slightly annoying issue of mis-aligned generations, but this can be overcome, but it really is a minor issue. OSX (talk • contributions) 07:53, 18 April 2012 (UTC)

 * For the generational sections in this article, and perhaps any other article about an automobile model, it might serve better to remove the range of years from the section headers. This would remove the issue of various markets differing years of availability. In the fields where the details of a generation are given, in this article and the generations' own articles, you could include year spans for each given market. This would put the information in a better context that is regionally agnostic. Its also important to note that 'model year' may or may not be concurrent with a calendar year, and doesn't change the disparity from market to market. The only absolute and agnostic separation of generations is the platform designation.

 * As for the contention that the 'home market' is the focus for the content of the article, as the 'home market' is considered Japan in this case, wouldn't the Japanese Wikipedia be a better place to represent the Japan-centric view of the model? The primarily English speaking markets for the vehicle don't have consistent model year availability, so the years being stated in the English language article don't objectively represent all markets. When the same vehicle is made in more than one nation and market of the world, does the model even have a specific 'home market'? Does the country of origin for the brand, and not the vehicle mandate the 'home market'? See how tying year designations to 'home market' and making them a prominent feature can become a compounding source of confusion? Perhaps it would be better to shift that emphasis as I suggested above, and keep the agnostic information of the platform designation as the focus? 76.14.240.12 (talk) 07:57, 19 April 2012 (UTC)

Jassic dialect

Jassic (digoran æzvak (hypotesis); jász), also known as Yassic, is an extinct dialect of the Ossetian language once spoken in Hungary, named after the Jasz people, a nomadic tribe that settled in Hungary in the 13th century.

History
The Jasz (Jassic) people came to Hungary together with the Cumans, chased by the Mongols. They were admitted by the Hungarian king Béla IV, hoping that they would assist in fighting against a Mongol-Tatar invasion. But shortly after their entry, the relationship worsened dramatically between the Hungarian nobility and the Cumanian-Jassic tribes and they left the country. After the end of the Mongol-Tatar occupation they returned and were settled in the central part of the Hungarian Plain.

Initially, their main occupation was animal husbandry. During the next two centuries they were assimilated into the Hungarian population and their language disappeared, but they preserved their Jassic identity and their regional autonomy until 1876. Over a dozen settlements in Central Hungary (e.g. Jászberény, Jászárokszállás, and Jászfényszaru) still bear their name. The historical, ethnographical and geographical region of Jászság, as well as of the modern Jász-Nagykun-Szolnok County, are among the many place names linked to them. The name of the city of Iași in Romania may also derive from the name of the people.

The only literary record of the Jassic language was found in the 1950s in the Hungarian National Széchényi Library. It is a one-page glossary containing 34 words mainly related to products of agriculture (types of grain, cattle, etc.) probably compiled for fiscal or mercantile purposes. The glossary was interpreted with the help of Ossetian analogues from the Digor dialect. (Németh 1959)

Jamie Waylett

Jamie Michael Waylett (born 21 July 1989) is a British former actor. His only film role to date is that of Vincent Crabbe in six of the eight Harry Potter films. In 2012, he was imprisoned for two years for his participation in the 2011 England riots.

Early life
Waylett was born in Kilburn, London, the fifth of six children born to Alan Waylett (born 1958) and Theresa Waylett (née De Freitas, born 1958). He lives in Camden, London. At the age of nine, he was hit by a car; he was expected to die or suffer severe brain damage, but surprised doctors by recovering full mental faculties.

Career
While Waylett was a student at Emmanuel Primary School, his photograph was taken as part of a general auditioning process for the Harry Potter films. Initially considered for the part of Dudley Dursley, he was cast as Vincent Crabbe after an audition in front of director Chris Columbus.

In August 2009, his Harry Potter co-star Joshua Herdman announced that Waylett would not return for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 1, or for the final film in the series, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2.

On 7 April 2009, Waylett and a friend were pulled over by police. The officers then searched their vehicle, finding a knife and eight bags of cannabis. Images on a camera led police to Waylett's mother's house, where additional cannabis plants were discovered being grown. Waylett was charged a month later for possession of the drug. He appeared in court on 16 July and pleaded guilty to growing the plants in his mother's home, but claimed that they were for his personal use and not for distribution. On 21 July, he was sentenced to 120 hours of community service. He had previously been accused of using cocaine in October 2006.

On 14 October 2011, Waylett was arrested for his participation in the August London riots. The Metropolitan Police charged him with "violent disorder, having an article with intent to destroy or damage property, and receiving stolen goods". He was specifically accused of possessing a Molotov cocktail while looting a pharmacy in Chalk Farm, London. He was also charged with growing cannabis after police found fifteen plants during a search of his home. On 20 March 2012, he was sentenced to two years in prison for taking part in the riots.

Josh Herdman

Joshua Colin M. Herdman (born 9 September 1987) is an English actor and mixed martial artist, best known for playing Gregory Goyle in the Harry Potter film series.

Early life
Herdman was born in Hampton, London. He is the son of actor and former professional rugby league player Martin Herdman and Jessica Herdman and the youngest of the four brothers. He was educated at Orleans Park School.

Josh and his father Martin Herdman were involved in a motorcycle accident at 2:30 pm on the afternoon of 15 September 2015 on Staines Road, Hounslow while navigating a small roundabout. Their motorcycle skidded on oil and the two were thrown off, knocked unconscious and sustained injuries. Both were left waiting with police, who arrived shortly after the accident, for an ambulance for approximately 90 minutes after the accident. The police were reportedly unable to take them to a hospital in their cars due to the two men's injuries and a supposed lack of insurance coverage if something were to happen while en route. At some point, another ambulance had stopped and passed by but was unable to attend to them possibly because it had been full or was attending to another emergency. Eventually an ambulance arrived at 3:59 pm almost an hour and a half after the accident as other ambulances had been diverted to higher priority calls. They were taken to West Middlesex University Hospital. Martin Herdman suffered a torn ligament on his ankle and additional cuts and bruises.

Career
Herdman started acting when he was about seven years old; his father found him an agent. At age 13, he was cast as Gregory Goyle, a sidekick of villain Draco Malfoy, in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (2001). Over the next decade, he returned as Goyle in all seven sequels. He was originally considered for the role of Dudley Dursley, Harry's spoiled cousin, but it went to Harry Melling.

Herdman appeared as Righteous in the 2018 film Robin Hood, alongside Taron Egerton, Jamie Foxx and Jamie Dornan.

After five years of practising jiujitsu, Herdman began his MMA career on 23 April 2016 in Romford with a decision win over Janusz Walachowski. He said, "I chose MMA because I love the sport. It's raw, exciting and unpredictable. I find it more interesting than boxing although I appreciate the beauty and art in boxing. It also made sense to move onto MMA because of my jujitsu training. I would like a few amateur fights first to get me started and see where it goes from there, who knows?"

Hi Themalau - there are a lot of different stub types. theyre all listed at WP:WSS/ST. if youre mainly working on african articles then a lot of the ones youll need are on Africa-related regional notice board (which you might like to check out anyway!).

greetings, DRC
Hi, I am pleased to see we have someone from the Congo contributing articles on the topic. I have been working on articles pertaining to it for several months now, but admittedly my knowledge is limited and information about DRC is difficult to obtain right now due to the situation there. I noticed you've added some info on the recent referendum, I have also done this and that info can be found here, but you may be more update to date on this than i am. Anyway, welcome and let me know if you need any help. --Gozar 03:20, 22 December 2005 (UTC)

 * A question, though, regarding the new flag of the DR Congo: Are you sure the version used will be the one with the larger star [[Image:Flag of Congo Kinshasa 1963.svg|20px]] and not the one with the smaller star [[Image:Flag of Congo Kinshasa 1966.svg|20px]] more recently in use? Thanks! — Nightst a  llion  (?) 09:23, 18 February 2006 (UTC)

Ville / City
Mbote Themalau,

C'est moi qui ai bossé sur la version française de toute la structure administrative. Bien de s'y mettre aussi en anglais, mais pour l'infobox, le terme ville n'est pas bon. "Ville" (which can be translated by "city") a une définition légale en DRC (voir ma remarque sur Talk:Banana, Democratic Republic of the Congo). "Ville" correspond plus à "City", et mais peut aussi être traduit par "town" (qui n'a pas vraiment d'équivalent en français autre que "ville"; peut être "bourg" ou "bourgade", mais ça ne s'utilise plus), qui conviendrait mieux à un endroit tel que Banana par exemple. En français, j'essaie de mettre territoire, ou localité quand il s'agit de la zone urbaine (en général nommée "cité" en DRC).

Il me semble qu'il vaudrait mieux reprendre la structure légale de la version française, sinon on va plus rien y comprendre sur la version anglaise.

Regards,

Vberger 12:04, 17 February 2006 (UTC)

 * I am quite impressed with the amount of knowledge you have on the Congo. I wish I could know more about you. I mean your take on some of the topics, and the fact that you speak Wallon, make me think that you are probably a "noko", but I would like to know more.
 * Themalau 07:56, 18 February 2006 (UTC)

 * A mondele ! In fact most of my knowledge comes from various sources on the web.

 * Well, I am just quite bilingual in French and English, plus not far in Dutch and Walloon. For the rest, as I live in a city with 30% percents of people from various nationalities (Liège, Belgium), 30 kiliometers from the Netherlands (10 minutes with the motorway), 50 from Germany (25 minutes), 70 from Luxemburg (...) and 100 from France, it is not too hard to have some culture and a linguistic culture.

 * For Congo, I was born in Zambia, and I worked for 9 monthes in Kinshasa in 2003 for an international NGO as the Administrative Manager. I'll try to come back there as an international observer for the elections. You also seem to be far away from your mother land...

 * It is not easy in fact to translate some french words in english for Congo. For exemple, "City" is "Ville" and not "Cité", which is only a town in a territory, or historicaly, the congolese part of the main cities.

 * Vberger 08:32, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
 * A bit late here, but isn't Cité as in Cité indigène called a township in English? --moyogo 15:06, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

duplicate articles
Hi Themalau, I have merged over the information in Democratic Republic of the Congo (new) on administrative divisons to Democratic Republic of the Congo and deleted the duplicate article. If there was something else in that article that you wanted to merge over, please tell me and I will recreate it as a subpage of your user space. Also, I have merge the page histories of Ituri with the modifed cut-and-paste you created at Ituri Province. Both of these cases deal with creation of articles on duplicate subjects, which are considered very bad. If you wish to move content under a new title, please use the "move" tab at the top of your screen. If there are other edits duplicate articles that you have created, please inform me of what they are and I will assist in cleaning it up. Thanks, BanyanTree 16:07, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

Since Political parties of the Democratic Republic of the Congo has translated the names, I wasn't too keen to do it, but the most important parties from the list at Élection législative congolaise de juillet 2006 should probably be added. ---moyogo 21:23, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

Bonjour!
J'ai une petite question. C'est écrit sur ta page d'utilisateur que tu as le français comme langue maternelle. Comment est-ce possible? Est-ce que c'est fréquent en Afrique? Bonne Journée! Aaker 14:38, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Non ce n'est pas frequent en Afrique. D'ailleurs j'ai moi meme un accent Congolais en Francais. Mais j'ai appris le Francais avant mes langues Congolaises (Lingala, Kikongo, etc), et je n'ai jamais reellement appris a ecrire dans ces langues jusqu'il y a de cela3 ou 4 ans seulement. Ainsi, le Francais est ma langue maternelle... par defaut. C'est la langue que je parle, et probablement ecris le mieux (quoique le fait de vivre aux USA me force a ecrire le plus souvent en anglais, donc les fautes de grammaire apparaissent maintenant dans les 2 langues :)). Mais pour la grande majorite des fricains, la langue dans laquelle ils sont le plus confortable, est une langue Africaine. Merci de la visiste!Themalau 11:54, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

Invite to the African Destubathon
Hi. You may be interested in participating in the African Destubathon which starts on October 15. Africa currently has over 37,000 stubs and badly needs a quality improvement editathon/contest to flesh out basic stubs. There are proposed substantial prizes to give to editors who do the most geography, wildlife and women articles, and planned smaller prizes for doing to most destubs for each of the 53 African countries, so should be enjoyable! Even if contests aren't your thing we would be grateful if you could consider destubbing a few African articles during the drive to help the cause and help reduce the massive 37,000 + stub count, of which many are rated high importance (think Regions of countries etc). If you're interested in competing or just loosely contributing, whether it's a river in Malawi, a Nigerian footballer, or a South African civil rights activist, please add your name to the Contestants/participants section. Diversity of work from a lot of people will make this that bit more special. For those of you who signed up to the North African contest, that will hopefully be held in the new year.

It won the 1995 Hugo Award for Best Novelette, Locus Award and HOMer Award and the 1994 Nebula Award for Best Novelette, and was nominated for the Theodore Sturgeon award for best short fiction. The novelette was expanded into a novel and made into an eponymous film.

Plot
A single man who writes science fiction books and screenplays for a living, adopts a son who claims he is from Mars. The adoptive father comes to be intrigued by the possibility his son might really be a Martian. Ultimately, the father realizes that he loves his son whether or not he is a Martian. The son uses a magical "Martian wish" to be a human so he can remain with his father.

Background
The story is based on the author's own experiences as a single adoptive parent, with most of the key moments drawn from actual events.

The main difference between the story and Gerrold's own experience is that Gerrold's son, Sean Friedman, never actually believed he was a Martian; the Martian identity was simply a game that the two of them played. The initial idea for the story actually came from the author overhearing another adoptive parent remark that her daughter had told her teacher that she [the adoptive daughter] was really a Martian. Although nothing specifically science fictional occurs in the story, Gerrold makes suggestive hints.

David Gerrold was out about his homosexuality when he adopted his son. In the novelette, the sexuality of the protagonist is not disclosed although the novel identifies him as gay. In the feature film, the protagonist was a straight widower (with a female love interest), causing criticism from the LGBT community.

International Association of Teachers of English as a Foreign Language

International Association of Teachers of English as a Foreign Language (IATEFL) is an organisation in the field of English language learning and teaching. It is based in Britain and was founded in 1967 as ATEFL (it became ‘International’ in 1970), by W. R. (Bill) Lee, who also served as the organisation's first Chairman until 1984.

IATEFL works primarily to develop networks amongst related institutions and individuals involved in language education as it is relevant to the English language. This includes classroom teachers, administrators of language programmes, teacher trainers/educators, writers and publishers, language assessors and examination bodies, and researchers, for example in applied linguistics. The renowned British linguist David Crystal was patron of IATEFL from the mid 1960s until 2023. He was followed as patron/matron by Jan Blake.

IATEFL holds an annual conference in the spring, with key speakers and individual papers, workshops and symposia. Membership is approximately 4000, spread through more than 100 countries. The primary activities for IATEFL members throughout the year are centred on Special Interest Groups (SIGs), which hold various types of meetings, conferences and webinars, and publish newsletters. In addition to these, there is a bimonthly magazine for the whole organisation, IATEFL Voices.

Officers are elected on a regular basis, with a professional staff performing logistics and promotional tasks throughout the year. Membership meets yearly at the Annual General Meeting (AGM) at the main conference.

Armored Car Robbery

Armored Car Robbery is a 1950 American film noir starring Charles McGraw, Adele Jergens, and William Talman.

Directed by Richard Fleischer, Armored Car Robbery is a heist movie, which tells the story of a well-planned robbery of cash from an armored car when it stops at a sports stadium. The theft goes awry and a tough Los Angeles cop sets off in determined pursuit of the culprits.

Plot
In Los Angeles criminal mastermind Dave Purvis devises a scheme to rob an armored car on its last pickup of the day. He recruits scuffling Benny McBride, who brings in fellow low-level professional crooks Al Mapes and Ace Foster to complete the gang.

Benny needs money to feed his hopeless plan to win his wife Yvonne back, a gorgeous blonde stripteaser who lost interest in him and is seeing another man. Unbeknownst to him, it is Purvis.

The robbery at minor league Wrigley Field begins as planned but goes wrong when a passing police patrol car intervenes. Purvis kills one of its officers and the gang makes its getaway. Lt. Jim Cordell, the dead cop’s partner, takes it upon himself to bring the killer to justice, and throws himself into the case, brusquely treating rookie replacement Danny Ryan.

In the hail of gunfire Benny was badly wounded. When he demands medical attention - and his share of the loot - he’s shot dead by Pervis. Mapes sews dissent when Purvis insists he’s going to give Benny’s cut to his widow, correctly deducing they’re a thing. Foster is then killed by the police as the three attempt escape.

Mapes and Purvis get away separately, with Purvis still holding all the loot. Mapes tries to meet Yvonne at the burlesque where she works, seeking a lead on Purvis. The waiting police intercept him, arrest him, and learn Purvis' identity.

Ryan goes undercover disguised as Mapes, whom Yvonne has never met. Purvis alerts her, and captures Ryan; he is shot and severely wounded while attempting to flee, but manages to inform Lt. Cordell that Purvis and Yvonne are leaving the country by chartered airplane from Los Angeles Metropolitan Airport.

Lt. Cordell and his team corner the couple there. Purvis is run over by a landing plane as he tries to escape across the runway. The money is recovered. As Ryan heals from his wound he is accepted by Cordell as a worthy partner.

Cast

 * Charles McGraw as Lieutenant Jim Cordell
 * Adele Jergens as Yvonne LeDoux
 * William Talman as Dave Purvis
 * Douglas Fowley as Benny McBride
 * Steve Brodie as Al Mapes
 * Don McGuire as Detective Danny Ryan
 * James Flavin as Lieutenant Phillips
 * Gene Evans as William 'Ace' Foster

Production
The film was based on a story by Charles Pete and Richard Carroll about a $500,000 robbery, based on a 1934 robbery at Rubel Ice Company. Originally called Gravesend Bay it was sold to RKO in March 1949. Robert Ryan was meant to play the rookie cop.

The studio retitled it Code No 3.

In August 1949 Earl Felton was assigned to write the script. Herman Schlom was producer and Richard Fleischer was to direct.

Charles McGraw was cast in December 1949.

The film was filmed on location in Los Angeles, California over 16 days. Locations include Wrigley Field and the Metropolitan Airport.

Critical response
Variety magazine gave the film a mixed review, calling it an okay film, and wrote, "RKO has concocted an okay cops-and-robbers melodrama ...[and] McGraw, Don McGuire and James Flavin, as cops, do very well. Talman and his cohorts put plenty of color into their heavy assignments. Adele Jergens attracts as a stripteaser and Talman's romantic interest".

Time Out Film Guide review lauded the film and called it "a model of its time". They wrote, "Almost documentary in its account of the heist that goes wrong and the police procedures that are set in motion, making excellent use of LA locations, it relies on superb high contrast lighting to meld reality into the characteristic noir look".

According to American studies and film professor, Bob Porfirio, Armored Car Robbery possesses the "film noir visual style" of the many RKO crime and suspense films of the early 1950s, such as: high-contrast photography integrating studio and location shooting, expressionistic lighting, deep focus, and haunting music (by Roy Webb).

Film critic Roger Fristoe believed director Richard Fleischer pushed the boundaries of the Motion Picture Production Code. One edict was, "Methods of crime shall not be explicitly presented or detailed in a manner calculated to...inspire imitation." Armored Car Robbery, however, had a blunt title, explicit violence and a detailed account of the planning and execution of the crime. As such, even though the criminals are caught, Armored Car Robbery tested the waters and helped set the stage for other films noir and heist films like The Killing (1956), which shares some similarities.

Home media
Warner Bros. released the film on DVD on July 13, 2010, in its Film Noir Classic Collection, Vol. 5.

Has been shown on the Turner Classic Movies show 'Noir Alley' with Eddie Muller.

Net gun

A net gun is a non-lethal weapon designed to fire a net which entangles the target. Net guns have a long history of being used to capture wildlife, stray dogs and even aircraft. A net gun that can subdue humans, and recently, Quadcopters have also been developed.

History
The net gun was invented by New Zealander Colin Brown in 1969 when he tried to sell the police a net gun to capture robbers. His invention took off in the 70s but was only successful in subduing wildlife and dogs until recently when a net gun designed for law enforcement use was invented.

Tonal (mythology)

Tonal is a concept within the study of Mesoamerican religion, myth, folklore and anthropology. It is a belief found in many indigenous Mesoamerican cultures that a person upon being born acquires a close spiritual link to an animal, a link that lasts throughout the lives of both creatures. The person shows signs of whatever the animal's situation, to include scratches and bruises if the animal gets in fights, or illness if the animal is ill. It is in this way similar to the concept of Totem.

Etymology
The word comes from the Nahuatl word tonalli, meaning "day" or "daysign". In the Aztec belief system the day of a person's birth calculated in the Tonalpohualli would determine the nature of the person – each day was associated with an animal which could have a strong or weak aspect. The person born on the day of for example "the dog" would then have the strong or weak aspect of the dog. In Nahuatl the word Tonalli was used to refer both to a day and to the animal related to that day. In Mayan belief the concept of an animal companion of a person was referred to as "Way". The modern Mixe people refer to it as Ts'ok. The Jakaltek Maya people of Concepcion Huista, Guatemala call it yixomal ispiẍan nax, meaning "soul bearer".

Studies
The study of tonalism was initiated by archaeologist, linguist and ethnologist Daniel Garrison Brinton who published a treatise called "Nagualism: A Study in Native-American Folklore and History" which chronicled historical interpretations of the word and those who practiced nagualism in Mexico in 1894. He identified the different beliefs associated with tonalism in some modern Mexican communities such as the Mixe, the Nahuas, the Zapotecs and Mixtecs. Precursors of these practices extend to ancient indigenous civilizations such as Nahua, Olmec and Toltec civilizations.

China Mountain Zhang

China Mountain Zhang is a 1992 science fiction novel by American writer Maureen F. McHugh. The novel is made up of several stories loosely intertwined.

Title
The novel's title derives from the name of the protagonist, a young gay man of mixed Chinese and Hispanic ancestry who goes by the name Rafael Zhang in non-Chinese contexts and Zhang Zhongshan in Chinese contexts. His Chinese given name, "Zhongshan", is written with the characters that have the primary meanings "center" and "mountain"; the Mandarin name for China also begins with the character meaning "center" or "middle". Thus, "China Mountain" is an alternate reading of his Chinese given name. As the novel explains, "Zhongshan" was one of the given names used by the Chinese revolutionary leader Sun Yat-sen, for whom the character is named.

Plot summary
The main story involves a man's maturation in a future dominated by China, where the United States has undergone a Second Great Depression, a Communist revolution and then a "Cleansing Winds Campaign" that resembled the Chinese Cultural Revolution. His personal evolution is paralleled in four interwoven side stories following characters progressing from outsiderdom to finding places in society.

Allusions/references to actual history, geography and current science
The backdrop is a 22nd-century in which the Chinese Communist regime dominates the world. The novel is slightly unusual for science fiction in that none of the characters cause any significant change in the world around them; nor does it use any standard science fiction tropes.

The New York Times said of the book when it first appeared: "A first novel this good gives every reader a chance to share in the pleasure of discovery; to my mind, Ms. McHugh's achievement recalls the best work of Samuel R. Delany and Kim Stanley Robinson without being in the least derivative."

Connections to other works
McHugh's short story "Protection" is set in the same future history as China Mountain Zhang, detailing the experiences of a petty criminal in a "Reform Through Labor" camp in Kansas under the future Communist system.

Awards and nominations
The novel was nominated for the Hugo Award for Best Novel and Nebula Award for Best Novel and won a Lambda Literary Award, the Locus Award for Best First Novel, and the James Tiptree, Jr. Award.

Korean studies

Korean studies is an academic discipline that focuses on the study of Korea, which includes the Republic of Korea, the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, and diasporic Korean populations. Areas commonly included under this rubric include Korean history, Korean culture, Korean literature, Korean art, Korean music, Korean language and linguistics, Korean sociology and anthropology, Korean politics, Korean economics, Korean folklore, Korean ethnomusicology and increasingly study of Korean popular culture. It may be compared to other area studies disciplines, such as American studies and Chinese studies. Korean studies is sometimes included within a broader regional area of focus including "East Asian studies".

The term Korean studies first began to be used in the 1940s, but did not attain widespread currency until South Korea rose to economic prominence in the 1970s. In 1991, the South Korean government established the Korea Foundation to promote Korean studies around the world.

Korean studies was originally an area of study conceived of and defined by non-Koreans. Korean scholars of Korea tend to see themselves as linguists, sociologists, and historians, but not as "Koreanists" unless they have received at least some of their education outside Korea and are academically active (for example publishing and attending conferences)in languages other than Korean (most Korean studies publications are in English but there is also a significant amount of Korean Studies activity in other European languages), or work outside Korean academia. In the mid-2000s, Korean universities pushing for more classes taught in English began to hire foreign-trained Koreanists of Korean and non-Korean origin to teach classes. This was often geared towards foreigners in Korean graduate schools. There are now graduate school programs in Korean Studies (mostly active at the MA level) in most of the major Korean universities. BA programs in Korean Studies have now been opened at two Korean universities. The BA programs are distinctive in that they have few foreign students.

 * The Academy of Korean Studies (한국학중앙연구원, AKS) est.1978
 * The Korea Research Foundation (한국학술진흥재단, KRF) est.1981
 * The Korea Foundation (한국국제교류재단) est.1991.
 * The Advanced Center for Korean Studies (한국국학진흥원, ACKS) est.1995.

Debates in the Field
What exactly Korean Studies is, who is teaching it, who is learning, and what should be taught continues to be debated.

There has been a small series of works debating Korean Studies published in academic journals. A sort of historical overview by Charles Armstrong titled "Development and Directions of Korean Studies in the United States" comes strongly from Armstrong's perspective teaching history at Columbia University, as his work: "Focusing on the discipline of history, ... traces the emergence of Korean Studies in the 1950s, the evolution of the field and the changing backgrounds of American scholars working on Korea in the 1960s to 1980s, and the rapid growth of Korean Studies since the early 1990s." Another historian, Andre Schmid published an early contribution to the debate in 2008, challenging the ways that English academia was pushing or shaping the directions of Korean Studies. Schmid explained, "In the unequal global cultural arena where English still dominates, the direction of Korean Studies in the United States disproportionately shapes international representations of Korean culture." University of Berkeley Sociologist John Lie contributed two pieces to the debate, the more recent of which challenged the Korean Studies, claiming "senior Koreanists seem rather content with their progress, telling their followers bizarre tales from the field and seeking to reproduce the archaic and mistaken Harvard East Asia paradigm." Lie discusses the weaknesses he sees in this paradigm for the remainder of the essay. In 2018 CedarBough T Saeji published an article in Acta Koreana bringing in the perspective of teaching Korean Studies in Korea, focusing on "1) the struggle to escape the nation-state boundaries implied in the habitual terminology, particularly when teaching in the ROK, where the country is unmarked (한국,“Han’guk”), the Democratic People's Republic of Korea is marked (북한,“Pukhan”), and the diaspora is rarely mentioned at all; 2) the implications of the expansion of Korean Studies as a major within the ROK; 3) in-class navigations of Korean national pride, the trap of Korean uniqueness and (self-)orientalization and attitudes toward the West."

Talk:Korean studies

growing pains, difficulties with funding, direction
Perhaps somebody can give their opinion. I think the article could use a historical section. Korean Studies began to expand in the mid-1990s and large Chaebol invested a substantial amount of money toward the creation of academic programmes outside of Korea and funded professors chairs, etc. However, the growth in Korean Studies that comes out of the mid-1990s was hopelessly biased toward 'the Korean problem', modern politics, modern industrialization, 'miracle-on the-Han', etc at the expense of important topics such as Buddhist and religious studies, archaeology, women's studies, and others. Also, many of the new or expanded academic programmes devloped in strange ways that are counter to the spirit of university learning and research. Bitter misunderstandings of what Korean Studies is/should do have developed between Korean Studies academics and local Korean overseas communities.

The IMF 시대 ushered in a difficult time for Korean Studies, and I don't really see that the discipline has fully recovered. Large Korean multinational corporations that used to give generously to Korean Studies had to sharply curtail such activities. I think that the KF's budget was significantly slashed. There have been a number of problems in overseas universities related to the continued funding (e.g. Durham University is a high profile case). In fact, there are more clouds on the horizon. The government of Noh Mu-hyeon made a stunning announcement in 2005 that it intended to move the Korea Foundation offices to far-off JEJU-DO. I wonder what impact this will have on Korean Studies because the KF is the main funding agency.

Finally, it seems that there isn't been much of a long-term plan on how to develop Korean Studies as a viable discipline. The KF and AKS are wonderful organisations. They do an excellent job with their facilities and resources, but they cannot do everything. It seems to me that some big-wig in the central government of Roh Tae-woo had a vision of a Korean Studies that could rival Japanese Studies and spread knowledge about Korean Civilization across the globe. This is a desirable thing for all of us, but it seems to me that the planning stopped there. Large Korean multinational corporations need to reinvest in Korean Studies, but they need to hold the money back until some firm plans are made about how to do things right and in a sustainable fashion. One of the ways to do things right is to re-define what is meant by Korean Studies so that a wider variety of academic pursuits are included and feel welcome.

I have only mentioned a few challenges here. Some of my opinions are in conflict with NPOV but please tell me if you think any of this stuff should be included in the article. Mumun 17:20, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
