The Call (American TV program)

The Call is an American television business news program which aired on CNBC between 11 am to 12 noon ET weekdays from August 2007 to October 2011. Previous programs shown in the same time slot were The Money Wheel with Ted David and Martha MacCallum and Market Watch and Morning Call. The Call offered a clear focus on real-time market coverage at the heart of the trading day.

About the program
Until July 19, 2007, CNBC aired Morning Call from 10AM to 12 noon ET weekdays. The next day, CNBC replaced the first hour of the two-hour program with an expanded Squawk on the Street, due in part to Liz Claman's departure from the network (she joined the Fox Business Network three months later). The program was completely revamped on July 23, 2007, and renamed The Call on August 7, 2007, with Dylan Ratigan and Trish Regan serving as interim anchors. Ratigan (live from the New York Stock Exchange), Regan and Melissa Francis were appointed permanent co-anchors as of October 8, 2007. In addition to the aforementioned July 2007 revamp, the anchors were joined on set by a guest contributor, very similar to Squawk Box.

Dylan Ratigan left The Call in late 2008 as he was replaced with Larry Kudlow. Melissa Francis and Trish Regan both remained on the program, with Francis anchoring alongside Kudlow at the network's Englewood Cliffs studio and Regan anchoring at the NYSE. Ratigan ultimately left CNBC altogether in March 2009. Trish Regan departed from CNBC 2 years later (March 2011). Amanda Drury (formerly of CNBC Asia) replaced Regan as co-host until she left for Street Signs in mid-2011.

Regular reporters included Bob Pisani (NYSE), Scott Wapner (NASDAQ), Sharon Epperson (NYMEX), Rick Santelli (Chicago), Steve Liesman, David Faber and Brian Shactman.

Segments

 * Here's The Call On...: The appropriately titled first segment of the show (discontinued since October 2007) looks at the morning's business headlines.
 * The Bond Report: Rick Santelli reports from Chicago with a look at the United States Bond market.
 * Your Best Trades Now: A guest joins the show with the anchors and a guest contributor to talk about what his/her best stock picks are right now.
 * Stocks To Watch: In this segment, we look at the United States stocks making news.
 * MSNBC News Update: News headlines from MSNBC. Seen shortly after the bottom of the hour.
 * 2 Hours Into the Trading Day...: An update on the U.S. stock markets after the first 2 hours of trading. Seen at the start of the program's second half-hour.
 * CNBC.com Blog Watch: Seen during the program's second half-hour with a look at the key business stories blogged by CNBC reporters, such as Jim Goldman ("Tech Check"), Mike Huckman ("Pharma's Market"), Diana Olick ("Realty Check") and Darren Rovell ("Sports Biz").
 * The Journal Report: Seen on Mondays with a reporter from The Wall Street Journal. This segment was discontinued at the end of 2007.
 * Seidman Speaks: CNBC's chief commentator Bill Seidman made guest appearances and answered viewers' Email questions. This segment was seen on Thursdays, but was discontinued after Seidman's death in 2009.
 * Mutual Fund Pick and Pan of the Week: Seen on Fridays with Christine Benz of Morningstar.
 * West Coast Call: A guest from the West Coast joins the program, similar to the "West Coast Wake Up" segment on Squawk on the Street.
 * The Last Call: The last segment of the program.

Quote
"America is open for business coast-to-coast." This was the opening phrase used at the start of the show just before the opening title sequence.

CNBC Asia
On June 14, 2010, CNBC Asia debuted their own version of The Call. That program was anchored by Bernard Lo in Hong Kong, and ended on March 28, 2014.

Cancellation
The United States version of The Call was cancelled October 14, 2011, and was replaced 3 days later by the newly expanded third hour of Squawk on the Street.

State segment spinoffs
I have long been contemplating cleaning up this article a bit by creating separate sections for three of the state segments (the MA section is really too short to need a separate article IMO). I'd like to begin, at least, with the New York segment with which I am most familiar. Does anyone have any objections? Daniel Case (talk) 06:41, 8 January 2009 (UTC)

 * If the state article can be detailed sufficiently, particularly its history, that might be a good idea. I would prefer not to split out only for the sake of splitting out, particularly when the main article is in bad shape. The Massachusetts portion should be combined with the Connecticut one as their histories are linked. --Polaron | Talk 17:09, 8 January 2009 (UTC)

 * There's a lot of detail that can be used. I actually think splitting out would help us clean this up a bit ... there are a number of random grafs of very NY-specific info and history that would be better in a state-specific article. Will be doing now. Daniel Case (talk) 18:15, 9 January 2009 (UTC)

 * This is a great source for Patterson I-84 info. –Juliancolton Tropical Cyclone  18:22, 9 January 2009 (UTC)

I-84 toll-free in New York
The extra details about I-190 don't make sense in this article, perhaps they could move to the NY State Thruway Authority article.

 * "In the early 1990s, maintenance responsibility for I-84 in New York was transferred to the New York State Thruway Authority and the monies for that purpose came from existing tolls on I-190 in downtown Buffalo, more than 300 miles (480 km) away. On Monday, October 30, 2006, the Thruway Authority voted to return maintenance costs to NYSDOT and the tolls in Buffalo were discontinued. The I-190 tolls were considered to be one of the principal causes of highway congestion in Buffalo.[2]"

rhyre (talk) 09:28, 1 June 2010 (UTC)

 * The I-190 toll removal and the Thruway Authority maintenance transfers are already covered in detail in the New York State Thruway and Interstate 84 in New York articles, so it probably doesn't need to be mentioned here. –  T M F 16:32, 1 June 2010 (UTC)

Founders Bridge
I was looking at a map of Hartford and it really looks like at one point the main route through was over the Founders Bridge since that makes a straight shot. It appears that at some point the route was realigned north, with the original route being replaced with Bushnell Park and Pearl Street. Did that happen when it was i-84 or did it it happen before that (when it was just US 6)? --Mblumber (talk) 01:32, 26 July 2011 (UTC)

PA Reconstruction
I'm far too tired to write about this right now, but I remember going down I-84 in PA this summer and noticing that the entire westbound section was missing from Exit 53 to 34 (we were crossed over into the EB lanes). Apparently there's some reconstruction going on. Should this be mentioned in the article? --Ipeters61 (talk) 06:02, 6 December 2014 (UTC)

 * Feel free to add it.  Dough 48  72  06:08, 6 December 2014 (UTC)

Distribution link
I don’t normally edit Wikipedia but I just noticed an error that I figured I would try to report. In the New York section, there’s a link to an article about distribution, but it seems to link to a definition that’s not applicable. I’m actually unsure if the correct definition even has an article. --Treyhazard2001 (talk) 05:53, 7 April 2022 (UTC)

 * IMHO, that entire sentence can be removed. It adds very little to the article. Regarding the specific words distribution triangle, when I read that, I thought of something much more compact, such as what is at the East Los Angeles Interchange. So if you want to keep the sentence, but reword it, I wouldn't even use the word distributor, because in my mind it's not. I'd just say something like the three freeways that serve this part of New York form a triangle in the region. Dave (talk) 18:49, 7 April 2022 (UTC)

 * I've revised the sentence in question. –Fredddie™ 20:51, 7 April 2022 (UTC)

Georg Lurich

Georg Lurich (22 April 1876 – 20 January 1920) was an Estonian Greco-Roman wrestler and strongman of the early 20th century. Lurich was also the trainer of Estonian wrestlers and weightlifters Georg Hackenschmidt and Aleksander Aberg.

Early life
Born Georg Luri on 22 April 1876 in the village of Väike-Maarja in Viru County, Russian Empire (now Lääne-Viru County, Estonia), he was a second youngest of six children born to shopkeeper Jüri Luri and Julie (née Rute). Although ethnically Estonian, his family later altered their surname to Lurich after changing religious congregations from a Lutheran Estonian congregation to a predominantly ethnic Baltic German congregation. Lurich's family believed members of the German congregation had better opportunities to educate their children in town schools. Although they changed their surname, Georg suffered physical and mental persecution from his mostly Baltic German fellow schoolmates. This situation was the main reason why he began training his body. He studied information from German-language books in order to learn how to train. Lurich began participating in sporting activities at an early age.

After graduating from Peter's Modern School in Tallinn (today, Tallinn Secondary School of Science) in 1894, he travelled to St. Petersburg, Russia where he practised weightlifting and wrestling under the supervision of Polish athletics coach Dr. Władysław Krajewski. Lurich performed in St. Petersburg's summer gardens, competed with local wrestlers and made various lifting demonstrations together with fellow strongman Gustav Boesberg. His popularity convinced him to pursue a career in as a professional athlete.

Lurich became the first Estonian to set world weightlifting records. The Estonian public eagerly attended his matches and Lurich's popularity in his homeland soared. From 1897 to 1898, Lurich toured Estonia and his successes helped popularize athletics in Estonia; dozens of athletic clubs were established. In 1896, Lurich befriended an 18-year-old fellow countryman by the name of George Hackenschmidt and began to train the young man. Hackenschmidt would later go on to make a name for himself in weightlifting and wrestling.

Travel abroad and death
Prior to World War I, Lurich, along with friend and fellow Estonian wrestler Aleksander Aberg travelled to the United States to perform for American audiences. Lurich competed in freestyle wrestling matches in the United States between 1913 and 1917. Lurich wrestled American world wrestling champion and title holder Frank Gotch in Kansas City in 1913, but lost what would be Gotch's final match.

After returning home via Japan, China and Russia in 1917, they arrived in Estonia in the autumn. They participated in a wrestling tournament in the capital city of Tallinn that remained unfinished due to the approach of German troops. The two athletes went to Saint Petersburg and on to southern Russia. The Russian Civil War meant an end to work in Saint Petersburg and Moscow. Conditions seemed better in the southern region, which was controlled by the White Army. However, the war spread and the men had to flee further inside Russia. They became stranded in a far corner of southern Russia in the village of Armavir. Their initial aim was to leave Russia across the Black Sea by boat.

Things took a dramatic turn in Armavir at the beginning of 1920. The fighting reached them, the town changed hands several times, many civilians perished, and there were many funerals. A warm winter brought about an epidemic of typhoid fever. Due to the war, medical aid was difficult to obtain. Lurich fell ill first and died on 20 January 1920. Aberg had also become infected with typhus, but managed to overcome the illness. However, he rushed his recovery, caught pneumonia, and died on 15 February 1920. The wrestlers were buried in one grave in the Armavir German cemetery.

Legacy
Following Georg Lurich's death on 20 January 1920 at the age of 43, many Estonians began embellishing his accomplishments with such voracity that Lurich's legend took on an almost mythological light. Folk tales abounded in rural Estonia and continue to years after Lurich's death. The following excerpt is an example of a Georg Lurich folk tale that has become popular amongst residents of Väike-Maarja, Estonia and was transcribed by Estonian author Kalle Voolaid:

"One hot and sunny summer day Lurich had been sitting on a hill slope in Väike-Maarja and when the heat was becoming too much for him, he ran down into the valley to freshen himself up with cool spring water. While running he hit his foot against a rock and fell on all fours on the stone. Then he stood up, went to the spring, put his feet and hands in the spring and washed with spring water. That is where he got the great strength, he had taken that rock against which he had hit his foot, and played with it as if it were a potato. That rock is said to be still there on the edge of Väike-Maarja memorial hill, covered with moss."

In 1912, Estonian sculptor Amandus Adamson cast a bronze statue of Lurich titled "Champion" which won the 1912 Paris Olympic artist contest. Lurich was also the inspirational model for a plaster of Paris sculpture by Adamson titled "Kalevipoeg at the Gates of Hell" (Estonian: "Kalevipoeg põrgu väravas") in 1922.

Lurich remains one of the most beloved figures in Estonia to this day. Large tour groups now visit Lurich's memorial stone in Väike-Maarja on Aia Street. The international Georg Lurich Memorial in Greco-Roman wrestling is held annually in Estonia from 1956. On 22 April 2018, Lurich's statue was opened in Väike-Maarja.

I think the word "some" should be added to the beginning of the sentence: Weevils are destructive to crops.

With 60,000 species, there are probably a lot of weevils that never bother a soul.

One could look into this.

Why was this moved from Weevil? Virtually all the incoming links to that page are for the beetles. 213.249.235.86 13:55, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

Something needs fixin'
Ugh. I didn't realize the weevil was a plant. :-) For some reason the Rhynchophora link on the Malpighiaceae page is redirecting here. Do we need a disambiguation page - or is there an error on one of the pages? Thanks! --RMann 18:10, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

Taxonomic consistency
This page should go by the work as G. Kuschel (1995) as the main guide to weevil taxonomy. This is also what the phylogeny section in the main page goes by. Therefore, Apionidae should not be included as a family, as they are now a subfamily of Brentidae. Also, the seed weevils bruchidae are actually in the 'leaf beetle' group Chrysomelidae, see Bruchinae. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Lauriec (talk • contribs) 22:36, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

What's a Weevil?
While this page does contain much information about weevils, it doesn't make clear (to me, anyway) what a weevil actually is. The taxonomy section informs the reader how to distinguish the different subfamilies of weevil, and the introduction gives a few examples of weevils, great, but nowhere does it tell the reader how to distinguish a weevil from anything else, exactly. Having no knowledge on the subject, I am unqualified to put in this info myself, but I'm hoping someone else can do it. Thanks Granolanifa (talk) 17:57, 15 August 2010 (UTC)
 * I know, it doesn't even mention the weevils' defining characteristic: that snout.Zhoulikan (talk) 05:10, 18 March 2011 (UTC)

What is the geographic range of weevils? The article could use a note about that. — O'Dea (talk) 04:05, 26 July 2011 (UTC)

 * Seconded. I came here here looking for the range. The article is silent on such important information. Thanks Mercy11 (talk) 19:42, 1 May 2014 (UTC)

Obrienidae?
We have one red link to Obrienidae. Can anyone solve this suspicious weevil family name, possible that a fossil one?--Estopedist1 (talk) 19:16, 30 June 2021 (UTC)

 * Where do you see this red link? There is no such link on the Weevil page. Dyanega (talk) 21:16, 30 June 2021 (UTC)
 * I think may be looking at incoming links?  Obrienidae is mentioned on Beetle and Evolution of insects as a possible weevil, though its a rather enigmatic and little understood family from the Triassic-Jurassic.  The type paper (Zherichin V.V., Gratshev V.G. 1993. Obrieniidae, fam. nov., the oldest Mesozoic weevils (Coleoptera, Curculionoidea). Paleontological Journal 27(1A): 50-69.) and most major papers that discuss it are in Russian with little to no English language translation, making information sparse.
 * As it stands †Obrieniidae Zherikhin & Gratshev,1993 is known from the Ladinian - Carnian Madygen Formation, the Norian - Rhaetian Tologoy Formation, and the ?Oxfordian Karabastau Formation, all of Kyrgyzstan per the checklist of Mesozoic weevils. There are two subfamilies Obrieniinae (Obrienia & Guillermia) and Kararhynchinae (Tribe Kenderlykanini (Madygenorhynchus, Kenderlyka) Tribe Kararhynchini (Kararhynchus).-- Kev  min  § 18:26, 1 July 2021 (UTC)
 * As a note, per the WP:Paleo guidelines, the Family, subfamily and Tribes should be covered at the family article, while the lowest level articles should stop at genus, with coverage of the species there.-- Kev min  § 18:46, 1 July 2021 (UTC)
 * As an additional note, the correct and accepted speling appears to be Obrieniidae, while Obrienidae is an orthographic variant in lesser usage.-- Kev min  § 15:22, 3 July 2021 (UTC)

Weevil
Weevils are beetles belonging to the superfamily Curculionoidea, known for their elongated snouts. They are usually small, less than 6 mm (1⁄4 in) in length, and herbivorous. Approximately 97,000 species of weevils are known. They belong to several families, with most of them in the family Curculionidae (the true weevils). Some other beetles, although not closely related, bear the name "weevil", such as the biscuit weevil (Stegobium paniceum), which belongs to the family Ptinidae. 112.213.213.205 (talk) 12:11, 9 December 2021 (UTC)

Illustrations
There are two media illustrations on the page which are correctly tagged with the copyright status and relevant to the topic; however, the captions are a bit too general. I think including a greater variety of illustrations or the beetle in different environments may be more helpful to understand what physical traits are characteristic to the Weevil.(talk) 15:35, 08 February 2024 (UTC)

Lanfang Republic

The Lanfang Republic (, Pha̍k-fa-sṳ: Làn-fông Khiung-fò-koet), also known as Lanfang Company, was a kongsi federation in Western Borneo. It was established by a Hakka Chinese named Low Lan Pak in 1777 until it was ended by Dutch occupation in 1884.

Arrival of the Chinese
The sultans of Western Borneo, including Sambas, Sukadana, and Landak all imported Chinese laborers in the 18th century to work in gold or tin mines. A number of mining companies enjoyed some political autonomy, but Lanfang is the best known thanks to a history written by Yap Siong-yoen, the son-in-law of the last kapitan of the Lanfang Company, which was translated into Dutch in 1885, and J.J.M. de Groot, a Dutch Sinologist who recorded Lanfang's history with the help of its last President, Liu Asheng. None of the other Chinese mining organization in western Kalimantan left written accounts; the records of the others were documented by Dutch sinologists.

Rule of Low Lan Pak
The founding father of the Lanfang Kongsi was Low Fong Pak (羅芳伯), who hailed from Meizhou in Guangdong Province. Chinese settlers have long lived on Borneo, with most engaging in trading and mining. They formed their own companies, among which was the Southern Company headed by Low.

Low established the Lanfang Company in 1777 (with its capital in Mandor), and it quickly emerged as the leading government in the region. The settlers subsequently elected Low as their inaugural leader. At the beginning of the Low's leadership, he knew they wouldn't survive long on a land surrounded by Western colonizers. To seek protection, Low insisted on claiming Lanfang Republic as a company to seek asylum from the Qing empire. Unfortunately, the Qianlong Emperor didn't accept Low's proposal of becoming the Qing Empire's tributary state but accepted the trade agreement. After Low received the official response from Qianlong, he promptly showcased it as evidence of loyalty to the Qing Empire. This action effectively intimidated the Dutch, forcing them to cease their hostile activities against the Lanfang Republic temporarily. After Low secured the Lanfang Republic's future, he implemented many democratic principles, including the idea that all matters of state must involve the consultation of the republic's citizenry. The Republic did not have a standing military, but had a defense ministry that administered a national militia based on conscription. During peacetime, the populace mostly engaged in farming, production, trading, and mining. Lanfang's administrative divisions included three tiers (province, prefecture, and county) with the people electing leaders for all levels. Lanfang was allied with Sultan Abdurrahman of the Pontianak Sultanate.

Low served as head of state until his death in 1795. Afterwards, Lanfang members elected Jiang Wubo (江戊伯) as their next president. Lanfang citizens elected a total of twelve leaders, who helped improve agricultural techniques, expand mine production, develop cultural education, and organize military training.

Dutch conquest
In the mid-to-late 19th century, the Chinese Qing Empire weakened substantially. Thus, the Lanfang Company's vigorous development suffered from the eventual expansion of the Dutch. The Mandor community waged a tenacious resistance, but ultimately failed due to poor weaponry. Lin Ah Sin was the last leader of Lanfang. Many of Lanfang's citizens and their descendants made their way to Sumatra or Singapore. The three campaigns waged by the Dutch East Indies Army against the Lanfang Company: This last one resulted in the subjugation of the Chinese and the loss of autonomy.
 * Expedition to the West Coast of Borneo (1822–24)
 * Expedition against the Chinese in Montrado (1850–54)
 * Chinese uprising in Mandor, Borneo (1884–85)

Wary of Qing intervention, the Dutch did not openly annex the lands controlled by the Lanfang Company, and created another puppet regime. It was not until 1912, when the Qing Dynasty collapsed, that the Dutch proclaimed their occupation.

Road to Sunday

Road to Sunday was a cancelled American football video game that was developed by San Diego Studio and would have been published by Sony Computer Entertainment for the PlayStation 2 and the PlayStation Portable. Despite a trailer being released for the game in July 2005, Road to Sunday was cancelled. Some of the game's idea were similar to the later released Blitz: The League series.

History
The game would have been a successor to the NFL GameDay series. Sony no longer had the rights to use NFL Teams or Players in video games after Electronic Arts acquired an exclusive NFL video game license in December 2004.

Plot
Road to Sunday would have revolved around Blake Doogan, who inherits a pro football team after his father is killed in a suspicious explosion while in Jamaica. Later, Blake learns that his father borrowed large sums of money from a Jamaican kingpin to purchase the professional football team the Los Angeles Show, and Doogan's father's debt is now his debt.

Gameplay
The gameplay would have followed Blake, his friend/sidekick Harry and seven other football players as they attempted to successful in football in order to generate enough money to pay off the kingpin and win a fictional football league championship. The on-the-field football experience is best characterized as mission-based football, done through the introduction of a new gameplay experience, Position Specific Gameplay (PSG). Players not only compete on the gridiron, but also gain exposure to an underworld of questionable characters, gambling, and an underground fighting league ran by the corrupt Jamaican kingpin. These off-field exploitations will drive the storyline as well as increase players’ abilities to perform in future missions and impact the outcome of future football games.

Please excuse my previous statements- I understand that you are doing the best that you can to adhere to the standards that Wikipedia has set. I also know that this project would be a massive mess of abstract data if those policies were not in place, and strictly enforced.

What I believe should be taken into consideration though, is that the Internet does not record enough information that is due a notable status. My uncle (Herbert Wilkins) is clearly notable. But because of his low profile, and insider status, not much has been released in "publicity" structure.

My reasons for initiating inclusions to Wikipedia are simply to create an "educational presence" for members of my family that have not been noted by other "educational" mediums. My background is also "notable" in that I have had special relationships with historical figures in the finance and music industries.

My personal intention is to administer to this information, and help with the massive linking work that is associated with it. What I am asking is the time to do so, and an open perspective to what is deemed as notable, and historical. William H. Wilkins III- 07.22.05- 1:24 pm/est historical. William H. Wilkins III- 07.22.05- 1:24 pm/est

 * Do you have any proof of this company's holdings being notable or famous? The founders?  The current owner?  Wikipedia is not for creating a presence, on;ly reporting on existing presences.

You can modify your signature to display ~GMH but still link to your user page. Click on "preferences" on the top of a Wikipedia page, then modify the text in the signature box to read ~GMH then turn on "use raw signature".

Democratic-Farmer-Labor
Dear Sir, I'm interested to know how you see affiliation to this party, how it interacts with the national Democratic Party, and just your general thoughts on it. Do they have their own policies, for either Minnesota or the United Statess as a whole, or is it just a local name for the national party? Basically, since I'm British, but have family in the US (both Democrats and Republicans), I'm interested to know how the party works and how you feel as a member of it. Nick Kerr 24 July, 2005 at 15:48 (GMT)
 * The Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party (DFL) was formed when the Minnesota Democratic Party merged with the Farmer-Labor Party in 1948. Both parties were progressive (left/center-left) with the Democratic Party being more urban and Roman Catholic and the Farmer-Labor Party being more rural and Lutheran/other Protestant. They merged as they were splitting the non-Republican vote. The Democratic Party in Minnesota was more of a third/smaller party. Since the merger, the name DFL has been kept to remember the history and legacy of the party in Minnesota. The DFL is the state affiliate of the Democratic National Committee (the nationwide Democratic party) and sends delegates to the national convention. However, traditionally the Minnesota DFL has been further left then the rest of the Democratic Party. Under Minnesota law, party affiliation is private data and you do not register to vote by political party. You need only declare your party affiliation if you attend your local precinct caucus (in Minnesota used for party endorsement and election of statewide party officials) or if you serve as an election judge (the Election Day officials who administer the election at the precinct). Incidentially the Democratic party in North Dakota also has a different name, it is the North Dakota Democratic NPL Party and it was also formed from a merger. If this doesnt answer your questions, let me know. EdwinHJ | Talk 21:32, 24 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Thank you very much. I tend to have a more hemoganised view of US politics (as would be seen at a national level), with at best knowing something about slight regional variations, but rarely down to the state level. Interesting to know that a state level political system still exists. Are the opposition straight Republicans or do they offer some localised variation? Nick Kerr 25 July, 2005 at 11:12 (GMT)
 * The Republican Party of Minnesota (GOP) has become more conservative in recent years. Traditionally, the GOP in Minnesota was more moderate or socially progressive and fiscally cautious. This was best illustrated in recent years by former Minnesota governor Arne Carlson who, as a Republican, was a bit of a tightwad on some things and in fact vetoed more legislation and spending than all of the previous governors combined. (The Minnesota Constitution grants the governor line-item veto which allows him/her to veto specific appropriations without vetoing the entire bill, unlike the US president who must approve or reject an entire spending bill.)  However, Gov. Carlson signed the amendments to the Minnesota Human Rights Act that added gay, lesbian and transgendered people to the categories of minorities protected under the law from housing, job and public accomidations discrimination. He worked for MinnesotaCare which is a health insurance program for lower-income people and children who lack other private insurance. He consistantly supported funding increases for public education, both "K-12" (elementary and secondary) and the University of Minnesota and the Minnesota State Colleges and University System MnSCU. So the Minnesota GOP had a more progressive reputation. In the 1970s, in order to distance themselves from the Watergate fiasco and the national party, the Minnesota Republican Party changed its name to the "Independent-Republican Party" or I-R. This designation lasted until 1995 when they changed their name back to the old form and dropped the "Independent" moniker. Many say this signaled the new more conservative position of the party. Gov. Pawlenty, the current governor, is much more to the right than Gov. Carlson was. So indeed the Minnesota GOP, like the Minnesota DFL, has had a traditionally somewhat different identity than the national party. EdwinHJ | Talk 15:29, 25 July 2005 (UTC)

My response to the question was intended to humorous which is why I prefaced my signature with ";-)". The reason for my "humorous" response is that historically, questions about RMN.

Welcome to the ever growing group of naive and ignorant Wikipedians
Well, I guess you are just one more of Mario Roering's pets. You should research a bit on the things you revert before doing your dirty work for Mario Roering? But I guess you don't care, exactly as anyone else Mario Roering has convinced to do his dirty work. We have said this on many occasions. Mario Roering does not care about the truth, the facts or anything else. He only cares about smearing the name of Tosa sensei, Genseiryu, The Genseiryu Karate-do International Federation, our European representative, Peter Lee sensei of Denmark and a lot of other people not willing to accept Mario Roering's lies. As soon as one lie is proven as such, Mario Roering's simply makes up a hole bunch of other lies. He will never stop I guess. So we won't either. The fact is, as long as Wikipedians (such as yourself) believe his lies and has no will whatsoever to research the things he lie to you about (i.e. reverting texts, thus promoting his lies once again), we will not stop reverting either. We are a team of instructors and members of the Genseiryu Karate-do International Federation who will not accept these actions by Mario Roering. We are a group (or team if you like) that is growing steadily with members of Holland, Japan and Denmark so far). If you or other people here at Wikipedia believe all these texts (or articles with reverts, additions, deletions, edits etc.) to come from one person, just using different IPs, then please be aware that such is not the case. One person writes these messages (the text which you are reading now) because we want one person to speak the policy of our aim. That is all. As long as you or anyone else is helping Mario Roering in his task - as you have just done - we will simply keep fighting as long as it takes. We simply will not accept this behaviour by Mario Roering. If you have no empathy as to the real issue here, then you certainly have been given too much power here at Wikipedia. That power should be taken away from you promptly, as you don't seem to be able to govern that power for the greater good. Stop reverting the texts, stop helping Mario Roering, because as long as you do that, you simply degrade yourself to yet another of his accomplices. Well, I hope you are better than that, but so far you have shown only capable of being Mario Roering's puppet. The idea of Wikipedia is good, don't get us wrong, but the idea is kind of handicapped, when Wikipedia (at least in this case) host nothing but lies, fiction and deflamatory contents all written by Mario Roering. It is a pity that Mario Roering simply keeps destroying that otherwise kind of good idea that is Wikipedia. And it certainly still is astonishing, that Wikipedia has not yet had the will to enforce any concequence whatsoever onto Mario Roering. It is unbelievable indeed. Maybe if some Nazi started writing some text about the holocaust never having taken place, then you would also help him and revert whatever he told you to? This is a long and ongoing conflict, if you cannot fathom what it is all about, then but out. You are not helping anyone. Talk to Jeremy, Splash and a lot of others who have followed this from the "beginning". We don't read or reply to anything written on any talkpage. Conveying the researched truth and the facts of GENSEIRYU is our only concern. No time is wasted on anything else here at Wikipedia.

 * Sorry I am reacting before the others, please feel free to remove it to a more suitable place according wikipedia rules. I am not aware if I am allowed to do like this. I did it here because I wanted to respond to some specified points.

 * First of all I am very curious about that growing team of instructors. Are they certified by the danish or dutch Karate Federation? Do they have any instructor license different than then the one handed by Mr. Tosa. I am very curious what their policy is so far. Their big team just started to be dishonest and slandering people. And now the big team can't win so they start holding their breath like small children, not reacting to anything in a civilized way only like this trying to hurt Mario. It doesn't work so far. He is still standing and more and more people are giving him personal emails to back him up.

 * We never insulted Mr. Tosa. We are different then Peter Lee, we just don't care about him. We disagree with some of his viewpoints and that is all. I am very sure he would never tolerate the behaviour of this guy Peter Lee.

 * About the reaction from Peter Lee. It is always one person that reacts and he is the man. Just check the IP adresses you see they all lead to the same part in Denmark. Besides that this his trade mark very clear his writing style. But this is his way insulting and then continue another way by acting as if somebody else is writing to back him up. Same like his own userpage telling a lot of good thinks about himself as if somebody else is writing and after he was exposed he deletes it. He should read his own dojo kun (dojo rules) and should behave accordingly. At least he is behaving according one rule: "Be concious of shame" and he is now hiding in shame, please keep hiding.--DavidR 18:16, 27 August 2005 (UTC)

 * WTF, I read it twice and I still can't figure it out. hydnjo talk 22:07, 21 August 2005 (UTC)

 * Well, I do understand the point of the text a little bit, but then again, I kind of know this guy, this Peter Lee... This kind of talk is the only kind of talk he can come up with. I'd say: Don't pay any attention to it (to the insults), don't let him get to you. He is an absolute nobody and he tries to be somebody by shouting around a lot and waving his fake black belt... If somebody doesn't agree with him, he calls him all kinds of names. This boy is so damn intelligent, we should all fall down on our knees and thank God for sending him down... Truth is, we do have all kinds of evidence to show who he really is. Want to see? Sent me an email and I will sent everything you need/want... Didn't want to let it come that far, but since this dumb, arrogant, self-centered moron is now comparing me with a Nazi... I have had it with his insults and name slandering!!! And yes, please do talk with Jeremy and Splash... But there are more people, for example Waerth... Good luck! -- Mario R 00:11:57, 2005-08-22 (UTC)

 * Jeesh. Why is this happening on your talk page. Am I going to be a target next just because I wrote to you? ;-) hydnjo talk 00:16, 22 August 2005 (UTC)

 * Don't be afraid Hydnjo, as long as you don't revert any of Peter Lee's "edits" at Genseiryu or WGKF, he will NOT come to your talk page to tell you how ignorant and naive you are... ;-) Regards, Mario R 00:27:02, 2005-08-22 (UTC)

 * I really wandered into a minefield here and didn't mean to! I give up! :-)
 * EdwinHJ | Talk 01:17, 22 August 2005 (UTC)

 * Looks like plenty of others are already rv'ing you to death. If you Mario, have a problem with me, then take it up on my talk page and not here thank you. And I'll rv anything inappropriate, from you or from anyone else. Sorry EdwinHJ that this is happening to you, I have no clue as to why. hydnjo talk 01:46, 22 August 2005 (UTC)

 * I think you totally misunderstood the message Hydnjo... That's the problem with written messages, you can't look at somebody's eyes! I even made a smiley ;-) to show I was joking! What I meant was that only if you would attack Peter Lee (i.e. revert his "edits"), he would attack you back, saying "you are ignorant and naive" (as he has done many times with other Wikipedians!)... This was just a conditional statement about Peter Lee, I would never do this myself!!! I don't even know you, so why would I?!? Sorry you misunderstood the message... Gotta be more careful with my jokes...
 * BTW, you are making a BIG mistake saying that "plenty of others" are rv'ing me to death. This is all coming from one single person with a dynamic ip address... Ask JeremyA!! Again, my apologies for the misunderstanding. I hope you now understand I hold absolute nothing against you, Edwin, Splash, nor anybody else on Wikipedia, besides this Peter Lee... Regards, -- Mario R 10:17:47, 2005-08-22 (UTC)

 * Posted on Mario Roering's talk page.
 * I'm begging your pardon. I was totally off base having hastily mis read your statement at EdwinHJ's. I have also been mistaken while making a humorous comment and I know how that made me feel. I apologize to you for my harsh comments. hydnjo talk 16:27, 22 August 2005 (UTC)

Lets start over
Sorry bout that, I really have no idea where that came from, Anyway, I love your choice of TV programs and I hope we can come up with something to better L&O:EIU. ;-) hydnjo talk 02:14, 22 August 2005 (UTC)
 * BTW this is your talk page so if you want to delete any of the goings-on up above, just go ahead and delete it. If you need any help doing that please just ask. Regards, hydnjo talk 02:34, 22 August 2005 (UTC)

Congrats on 2000 edits!
I wanted to congratulate you on your 2000 edits. But you have to remember, there was no edit "0", so you have to wait until you have 2001 edits... :) -- MicahMN | μ 00:58, 24 August 2005 (UTC)

helpful hint
Thanks for watching our for Ip vandals. A hint that will reduce server load on wikipedia and is very simple is to add "subst:" before the name of the template you are adding to a page. Example will insert the actual text of the  template to the page instead of just linking to the template to load the text when the page is loaded/refreshed. This is a simple thing to do that really can help wikipedia. Thanks! EdwinHJ | Talk 20:24, 18 September 2005 (UTC)

 * Thanks; I'll do that. Thue | talk 08:44, 19 September 2005 (UTC)

Indpt-Repub.
Wow. I've seen Independent, Independent's, and Independence Parties, but i never dreamt...! Thanks for the correction.

Avoiding, in another spot, piping to the nat'l party was a good step, but still IMO it looks too much like an error. Is there reason to rule out (the admittedly unusual step of) making Minnesota Independent-Republican Party or Independent-Republican Party of Minnesota into an "almost-redirect" that mentions Republican Party of Minnesota in the first line, and restricts its content to pretty much what you say abt it above in yr DFL section? (Clearly i don't need to argue to you that RP of M should tell the full story of the IRP in sequence between the two periods of the RP name.) IMO it is worth an extra click to avoid the confusion of those who are sure (mistakenly, as with me) that the hist of the RPM is too straightforward to be worth reading. This should be sufficient justification for MIRP to be a very short article, and since its history is over, it should involve an additional insignificant maint burden.

But in any case, thanks again. --Jerzy•t 18:56, 26 September 2005 (UTC)

Image:Voting box clipart.gif
Can you provide an explicit source for this image to verify that it is public domain? I figure you didn't make it yourself, from the current choice of tag, so it'd be good to ensure we can definitely use the image. I've added {nosource} to it, which gives 7 days before it becomes a speedy. Thanks. -Splash talk 19:10, 24 November 2005 (UTC)

Reverting vandalism
Hey there. Thanks for the heads-up on the vandalism on car bomb. In future, all you have to do to revert vandalism is to go the the article's "History" page, click on the datestamp of the earlier (un-vandalized) version, click "Edit this page" at the top (you will get a message about editing an out-of-date version), and click "Save" at the bottom. This is especially good for articles with lots of vandalism throughout.

The whole process is described in more detail at Revert.

Best, JHCC (talk) 19:45, 12 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Thank you, that is exactly the process I followed when reverting the article. EdwinHJ | Talk 19:47, 12 December 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for letting me know. I will do that in future. Cheers. AnnH (talk) 00:43, 15 December 2005 (UTC)

Martin Luther and the Jews
Isolani, could you do me a favor and look in on the Talk page of Martin Luther and the Jews? I'm trying to keep this page balanced and accurate. It is proving very difficult, since I'm the sole Lutheran voice here at the moment. Would you examine my posts and tell me if I'm crazy or unreasonable? --CTSWyneken 02:24, 15 December 2005 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:927449 20050422 screen001.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:927449 20050422 screen001.jpg.
