Constitution of Haiti

The Constitution of Haiti (Constitution d'Haïti, Konstitisyon Ayiti) was modeled after the constitutions of the United States, Poland and France. The latest version of the document was approved by Parliament in March 2011 and came into effect on June 20, 2012.

History
A total of 22 constitutions have been promulgated throughout Haiti's history, before the first constitution, a colonial constitution was promulgated under the short-lived government of then-Governor-General in 1801 Toussaint Louverture, who had become one of the leaders of the revolutionary forces in the Haitian Revolution.

 * First Constitution of Hayti as a free country promulgated by Jacques I.
 * Constitution of 1806, for the southern Republic of Haiti, written largely by Alexandre Pétion.
 * Constitution of 1807 formalized a northern State of Haiti with Christophe as its President for Life and a small appointed Council of State, composed primarily of generals. Banned divorce and public exercise of any religion other than Catholicism, and suspended operation of the constitution at any location attended by the army. Unusual in its omission of any prohibition against white ownership of land.
 * Constitution of 1811 for the northern State of Haiti, establishing a hereditary monarchy under Christophe. Again, prohibition against white ownership of land was omitted.
 * Revision of the Haitian Constitution of 1806 (1816). Created a bicameral legislature of a House of Representatives ("composed of Three Members for the Capital of the Republic, of Two for the Capital of each Department, and of One Member for each Commune") and a Senate, established Pétion as President for Life, restricted the legislature to only consider bills proposed by the president, and provided for laws by presidential order, except for taxation. The Senate was no longer directly elected, but selected by the lower house from a list of nominees provided by the president. This constitution also provided automatic Haitian citizenship to any black, Indian, or person of mixed race who resided in the nation for more than a year.
 * Constitution of 1843 under Charles Rivière-Hérard.
 * Constitution of 1816 restored by Jean-Baptiste Riché.
 * Constitution of 1846, under Jean-Baptiste Riché.
 * Constitution of 1849. Re-established Haïti as an empire under Faustin I.
 * Constitution of 1874 under Michel Domingue. Granted the executive had the power to dissolve the Chambers and to establish a Council of State to aid the Government. Power was given to the president for one year to change the judges and magistrates.
 * Constitution of 1867
 * Constitution of 1874
 * Constitution of 1879
 * Constitution of 1888
 * Constitution of 1889
 * Constitution of 1902
 * Constitution of 1918, acclaimed by U.S.-backed plebiscite: 98,225 for, 769 against.
 * Constitution of 1932
 * Constitution of 1935. Anti-democratic. Allowed Sténio Vincent broad powers, including the ability to succeed himself.
 * Constitution of 1932 reinstated (1942.)
 * Constitution of 1946, Nov. 22. Constitution of Dumarsais Estime. Heinl, p. 552.
 * Constitution of 1950. Enfranchised women.
 * Constitution of 1957.
 * Constitution of 1964. Established François Duvalier as President for Life. Established a unicameral Legislature of 58 deputies.
 * Constitution of 1983
 * Constitution of 1987. Banned dual citizenship, effectively restricting Haitian-Americans (such as Samir Mourra and Dumarsais Simeus) from running for president in Haiti. Was ratified in March 1987, but it was completely suspended from June 1988 to March 1989 and was only fully reinstated in October 1994.
 * Constitution of 2012. Currently in force. Re-legalizes dual citizenship, allows for Haitians living abroad to own land and run for Haitian political office (except for offices of president, prime minister, senator or member of the lower house of Parliament). Also demands the establishment of a permanent constitutional court to resolve disputes between Parliament and the executive, a new permanent electoral council to replace the provisional CEP, and that 30 percent of government jobs be held by women.

Benny Benjamin

William "Benny" Benjamin (July 25, 1925 – April 20, 1969), nicknamed Papa Zita, was an American musician, most notable as the primary drummer for the Motown Records studio band The Funk Brothers. He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2003 and was named the eleventh best drummer of all time by Rolling Stone magazine in 2016.

Life and career
Benjamin was a native of Birmingham, Alabama. He originally learned to play drums in the style of the big band jazz groups in the 1940s.

In 1958, He was Motown's first studio drummer, where he was noted for his dynamic style. Several Motown record producers, including Berry Gordy, refused to work on any recording sessions unless Benjamin was the drummer and James Jamerson was the bassist. The Beatles singled out Benjamin's drumming style upon meeting Gordy in the UK. Among the Motown songs he performed on are early hits such as "Money (That's What I Want)" by Barrett Strong, "Shop Around" by The Miracles and "Do You Love Me" by The Contours; as well as later hits such as "Get Ready" and "My Girl" by The Temptations, "Uptight (Everything's Alright)" by Stevie Wonder, "I Heard It Through the Grapevine" by Gladys Knight & the Pips, and "Going to a Go-Go" by The Miracles.

Benjamin was influenced by the work of drummers Buddy Rich and Tito Puente. He recorded with a studio set composed of Ludwig, Slingerland, Rogers and Gretsch components and probably Zildjian cymbals.

By the late 1960s, Benjamin struggled with drug and alcohol addiction, and the fellow Funk Brothers Uriel Jones and Richard "Pistol" Allen increasingly recorded more of the drum tracks for the studio's releases. He died on April 20, 1969, of a stroke at age 43.

Talk:UMD

UMD is Sony
Ok give it a few weeks and 99% of people searching for "UMD" will want the disc. So how about redirecting UMD to the disc and creating a disambiguation page for the others?

Well I'm gonna do it anyway. Deano 17:41, 31 August 2005 (UTC)

There's no point directing UMD to the disambiguation page. There's a link to the disamb page from the disc article. 99% of people want the disc. Majority rules.

Deano 17:41, 31 August 2005 (UTC)
 * That's absurd. UMD has stood for these universities for decades and in one case ("umd.edu") is a domain name for one of these universities.  Additionally, the Google-test shows UMD should not redirect to the disc:
 * umd "university of maryland" - 1,890,000 hits
 * umd "university of minnesota" - 114,000 hits
 * umd "university of michigan" - 105,000 hits
 * umd "universal media disc" - 50,600 hits
 * Fairly unscientific, but that doesn't change the fact universal media disc comes in dead last with less than half the next nearest number of references. There's your majority rule. -Howardjp 17:45, 31 August 2005 (UTC)

okay we'll wait 2 months once the PSP is launched in Europe. Or just wait and look at the Wiki stats - I guarentee the vast majority of people searching for "UMD" will want the disc. Or just wait until someone else does exactly what I did, because there is no reason not to. It is typical American arrogance that makes Yanks think that a global product that has sold more than 5 million times over in less than 6 months is going to be searched for less that some universities no one knows/cares about. But fine, have it your way.

Deano 19:39, 31 August 2005 (UTC)
 * It is typical youthful arrogance think that makes teenagers think a game specification that was obsolete half an hour before they were born has more relevance than cultural institutions that are older than their republican governments. Universal media disc will be dead before this year's entering class graduates.  It should be a disamiguation page.  -Howardjp 00:05, 1 September 2005 (UTC)

Firstly, would you expect someone who searches for DVD or CD to have to go through a disambiguation page? No, because it is more than a shortform, it is the name of the format. The same applies for UMD. It is more than an abbreviation - it is the actual product. Look at a PSP - they don't say "Universal Media Disc" on them ANYWHERE. It says "UMD". The universities are ABBREVIATIONS. Someone searching for an abbreviation that has the same letters as an ACTUAL PRODUCT NAME should not be bothered about having to click ONE MORE TIME to get there.

Go to CD. Notice how it ends up at "Compact Disc". Strange... now correct me if I'm wrong (I realise American's don't appreciate the fact that other countries exist), but a COUNTRY is more important than some university. Right? So don't you think it's strange that the internationally recognised symbol for the Democratic Rep of Congo - one of the most important countries in the world, leave alone Africa, is trumped by a "specification that was obsolete half an hour before I was born"...

Could it be that something whose acronym name is equal to its long-form trumps a country? Surely on that basis, some university doesn't stand a chance? Oh no wait, America is all powerful and so an American university must be more important...

Deano 10:59, 1 September 2005 (UTC)
 * I know Eurotrash likes to think Americans are stupid, but at least we write in coherent sentences. Please read your posts back to yourself before submitting; it will save me time trying to figure out what you are saying.  But back to the point, CD absolutely should go to a disambiguation page.  More importantly than the Congo, CD is also an abbreviation for a certificate of deposit (time deposits for those of you in less civilized parts of the world).  The CD move was controversial there.  But that's not my high-horse today.  Perhaps tomorrow.  DVD is a more interesting case.  There's no DVD disambiguation page.  According to Wikipedia, DVD doesn't mean anything else, therefore I do not think that is important to disambiguate. -Howardjp 13:28, 1 September 2005 (UTC)

 * What part don't you understand? It makes perfect sense to me... and what is 'Eurotrash'?  It's quite worrying that you can't understand English and yet claim to know what is best in terms of avoiding ambiguity.  And get over your "long-term" solution - wiki is free to edit, when UMDs cease to exist then someone will change it back.  When the disc is in its heyday, why not take advantage of the fact?

 * Deano 14:52, 1 September 2005 (UTC)

 * Since your numbers are obviously falsified:
 * UMD "University of Maryland" - 2,140,000 hits
 * UMD "Universal Media Disc" - 52,400 hits
 * Wait, that's probably not what you mean. Let's do that with search only in Canada:
 * UMD "University of Maryland" - 7,150 hits
 * UMD "Universal Media Disc" - 785 hits
 * Wow, even in Canada, UMD means an American university. -Howardjp 15:10, 1 September 2005 (UTC)
 * You removed the numbers you posted while I was writing my post. Here they are, for posterity:
 * And also, just to prove it is Americanism taking the world for granted, do a home search on Google CANADA (as in the big country next to you) for UMD.
 * UMD "Universal Media Disc" - 58,300 hits
 * UMD "University of Maryland" - 8,670 hits
 * I dread to think what the others would be like if you claim Maryland is the most famous... that is 670% more hits for the global version of UMD.
 * Deano 14:52, 1 September 2005 (UTC)
 * hmm well try this http://www.google.ca/search?hl=en&q=umd+universal+media+disc&meta=cr%3DcountryCA and this http://www.google.ca/search?hl=en&q=umd+university+of+maryland&meta=cr%3DcountryCA. Falsified my arse.
 * Two links to the same place, showing 58,300 of which 139 pages are unique. -Howardjp 15:20, 1 September 2005 (UTC)

That Deano chap is right Howard. I don't appreciate you treating all Americans as though we're idiots Deano - true many are, but its is an unfair stereotype. However, I agree with what you have said and I think, as a 50 year old, I do not qualify as a 'teenager'. But UMD is the future and it is the disc. It is perfectly satisfactory to follow the redirect if you want the university.

192.193.245.11 11:26, 1 September 2005 (UTC)

He isn't. Wikipedia standards require most common use with respect to name. According to any reasonable interpretation of those standards, combined with the Google data above, this should redirect to University of Maryland, College Park. But over time, UMD will reference the media standard more and more. But that usage will peak and die within a few years. Linking this to a disambiguation page is the only long-term reasonable, and more importantly, sustainable approach to this. -Howardjp 13:28, 1 September 2005 (UTC)

UMD is not Sony
Another reason not to redirect to Universal Media Disc: Of the more than two million pages on Wikipedia, only two link to UMD. Of those, one is the list of TLAs, and the other is someone's talk page (and Wikipedia standards do not apply there). The most important reason to redirect an abbreviation is for other articles that linked indiscriminately. That is clearly not the case here. -Howardjp 15:25, 1 September 2005 (UTC)

 * The most important reason to redirect is for simplicity and practicality. And neither are lost for the majority if you redirect UMD to Universal Media Disc.  I'm fedup with your petty arguments but believe me, plenty of people in the next few weeks will come and change it without posting on the discussion.

 * Oh yeah and I corrected that link. I don't know where you got that 139 figure from (falsified?), but the stats don't lie.
 * Deano 16:10, 1 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Not falsified, go click out on page 20 provided by Google, this time I get 116 unique pages:
 * In order to show you the most relevant results, we have omitted some entries very similar to the 116 already displayed. If you like, you can repeat the search with the omitted results included.
 * But regardless, my arguments are not petty. Petty is throwing out racist comments about Americans.  At that point, you lost any right to be taken seriously.  And even if you should be taken seriously, it doesn't change the fact that you damage the value of the encyclopedia by hijacking a page providing useful information. -Howardjp 16:23, 1 September 2005 (UTC)

You think that's racist? Mate you should try being black and then see what racism is. Don't even think about talking to me about someone being racist toward you - you'd never understand. What I said is the view shared by the vast majority of the world. Why don't you leave the media fortress of the USA and see what other people think of its inhabitants. Its not racism, it is what we have seen of you.

And as for "damaging the value of the encyclopedia", I prefer to listen to what the encyclopedia itself has to say on the matter - see Be Bold - than listen to petty,, arrogant Americans. Bye bye. Deano 18:03, 1 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Tell me, do you dish our anti-American hatred on all Wikipages, or am I just special? No wonder Americans hate you.  I hate you.  But you had to piss me off first.  But if the vast majority of the world feels as you do, all you've done is say the vast majority of the world are a bunch of racist assholes.  Given the history of the world, this is not surprising.  Racism is, historically, Europe's  most influential export.  -Howardjp 22:34, 1 September 2005 (UTC)

"Historically" lots of things are true. I don't deal with what happened in the past, otherwise I would still hate Germans. I deal with the present, and America is the most racist country in the world. It is also the most bigotted. Seriously, I have been there, I know. If you leave your country and come to some proper civilisation, you will realise why. Deano 10:42, 2 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Since you've now proven my point, I'm done with you. -Howardjp 12:30, 2 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Yep. 69.143.236.33 06:07, 15 October 2007 (UTC)

Why was the link to Universal Media Disc removed from this disambigous page? UMD is quite obviously an acronym for this product. --92.225.89.73 (talk) 19:28, 31 August 2012 (UTC)

That's Life (song)

"That's Life" is a popular song written by Dean Kay and Kelly Gordon and first recorded in 1963 by Marion Montgomery. The song has an uplifting message that, despite the ups and downs in life, one should not give up but keep positive, because soon one will be "back on top."

The most famous version is by Frank Sinatra, released on his 1966 album of the same name. Sinatra recorded the song after hearing an earlier recording of it by O.C. Smith; the song proved successful and reached the fourth spot on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart. Following the success of Sinatra's version, it was subsequently recorded by a number of artists including Aretha Franklin, James Booker, Shirley Bassey, James Brown, Van Morrison, David Lee Roth, Michael Bolton, Michael Bublé, Russell Watson, Deana Martin and Holt McCallany. Sinatra's version appeared in the 1993 film A Bronx Tale, the 1995 film Casper, the 2019 film Joker, the 2004 video game Tony Hawk's Underground 2, 1996 Commercial From Toyota in South Africa, as well as the sixth season finale of Brooklyn Nine-Nine, while a cover by Bono was on the soundtrack of The Good Thief (2002).

Background
Marion Montgomery was signed to Capitol Records after being discovered by singer Peggy Lee. Montgomery recorded "That's Life", written by Dean Kay and Kelly Gordon, in 1963. It was released the same year, but failed to chart.

Frank Sinatra version
While "That's Life" was first recorded by Marion Montgomery, the song came to the attention of Frank Sinatra when he heard O.C. Smith's chart-climbing version in his car in 1965. He stopped the car, called his daughter Nancy and told her to find the publisher of the song because he wanted to record it; she did. Sinatra first performed the song on his television special A Man and His Music – Part II in 1966, with an arrangement by Nelson Riddle.

The recorded version, made on July 25, 1966 at United Recording, Hollywood, was arranged and conducted by Ernie Freeman and produced by Jimmy Bowen. The trio had previously worked together earlier in 1966 on "Strangers in the Night", which got Sinatra the Grammy Award for Best Male Vocal. For "That's Life", the background singers were the vocal contractor and singer B.J. Baker, along with Gwen Johnson and Jackie Ward. 40 first-chair musicians were also assembled for Sinatra's recording including Glen Campbell and many of the members of the Wrecking Crew. Sinatra took two passes at the song. He ended the first take with, "Oh yeah." Bowen asked him to perform it again, which annoyed 'one take' Sinatra – resulting in the biting performance Bowen was looking for - which Sinatra tagged with the defiant, "My, My." LA session player Mike Melvoin performed the Hammond organ solo on the recording.

Bowen's vision for the rest of the album was to mirror "That's Life" onto the other songs so they all sounded similar, rather than fill it with what he viewed as typical Sinatra-style songs. This was as a result of his work on the Strangers in the Night album, where Bowen felt that the titular single did not match the rest of the album, which was more of a classic Sinatra sound. So for the That's Life album, the other album tracks had similar brass accompaniments.

Both the album and the song proved major successes for Sinatra. The song was a number-four hit on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart and reached number one on the Easy Listening chart for three weeks in December 1966/January 1967. In Canada, the song reached number three. Sinatra's recording of "That's Life" was later used in the 1993 film A Bronx Tale alongside his recording of "Same Old Song and Dance". It was also featured in the 2004 video game Tony Hawk's Underground 2, and also plays during the game's credits. The song was also in the 1988 film License to Drive, a scene where the main character puts clown makeup on and the final scene of the 2019 film Joker, and during the final scene of the final episode of the sixth season of the NBC television comedy series Brooklyn Nine-Nine.

Other versions
Although the O.C. Smith version had proved successful in areas such Detroit and Los Angeles, it was not until Sinatra's cover of it went high in the charts that the earlier version was released nationally. As well as the Smith release, "That's Life" was recorded on several albums following Sinatra's success with it, including the Aretha Franklin album Aretha Arrives, in addition to recordings by The Temptations, Shirley Bassey, and James Brown. Brown recorded the song for his 1968 album Live at the Apollo, Volume II. Brown's studio-recorded version appeared on the soundtrack for the 1999 film EDtv. The Peddlers recorded a version in 1969 which was released on a single. Former Van Halen frontman, David Lee Roth, released a version and video, in 1986, for his first solo LP Eat 'Em and Smile. Deana Martin also recorded "That's Life" on her 2016 released album, Swing Street.
 * 1960s to 1970s
 * 1980s to 2000s

This was not the only occasion when the song appeared on a film's soundtrack. In 2002, a recording by Bono and composed by Elliot Goldenthal appeared on the soundtrack for The Good Thief. The song was also covered in "Opening Night", a second-season episode of the American television series Smash, by Katharine McPhee and Megan Hilty. Vik Sahay performed the song on an episode of Preacher.

I really like the article. I moved it here only to create the Tanya article as a "stand-alone" - since so many articles point there. I have one question: what is the source of the S. H. Kook and S. K. Mirsky data? Fintor 17:10, 31 August 2005 (UTC)

The Tanya is an important work to Chabad. Not to hasidim in general. Many hasidim don't even touch it. 210.84.40.154 00:02, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

Kristen Gilbert

Kristen Heather Gilbert ( Strickland; born November 13, 1967) is an American serial killer and former nurse who was convicted of four murders and two attempted murders of patients admitted to the Veterans Affairs Medical Center (VAMC) in Northampton, Massachusetts. She induced cardiac arrest in patients by injecting their intravenous therapy bags with lethal doses of epinephrine, commonly known as adrenaline, which is an untraceable heart stimulant. She would then respond to the coded emergency, often resuscitating the patients herself. Prosecutors said Gilbert was on duty for about half of the 350 deaths that occurred at the hospital from when she started working there in 1989, and that the odds of this merely being a coincidence was 1 in 100 million. However, her only confirmed victims were Stanley Jagodowski, Henry Hudon, Kenneth Cutting, and Edward Skwira.

Early life
Gilbert was born Kristen Heather Strickland in Fall River, Massachusetts, on November 13, 1967, the elder of Richard and Claudia Strickland's two daughters. Richard was an electronics executive, while Claudia was a homemaker and part-time teacher. As she entered her teenage years, friends and family noticed that she had a habit of lying. She had a history of faking suicide attempts to manipulate people. According to court records, she had made violent threats against others since she was a teenager.

Gilbert graduated from Groton-Dunstable Regional High School in Groton, Massachusetts. In 1986, she enrolled at Bridgewater State College in Bridgewater, Massachusetts. After a fake suicide attempt, she was ordered into psychiatric treatment by Bridgewater State College officials. Because of this, in 1987, she transferred to Mount Wachusett Community College in Gardner, Massachusetts and then to Greenfield Community College in Greenfield, Massachusetts. She graduated from the latter with a nursing diploma, becoming a registered nurse in 1988. Later that year, she married Glenn Gilbert.

Career and murders
In 1989, Gilbert joined the staff of the Veterans Affairs Medical Center in Northampton. She was featured in the magazine VA Practitioner in April 1990. Although other nurses noticed a high number of deaths on Gilbert's watch, they passed it off and jokingly called her "The Angel of Death." In 1996, however, three nurses reported their concern about an increase in cardiac arrest deaths and a decrease in the supply of epinephrine, and an investigation ensued. Gilbert telephoned in a bomb threat to attempt to derail the investigation.

Gilbert left the hospital in 1996 amid a hospital investigation into the many suspicious patient deaths that occurred during her shifts. That fall, Gilbert checked herself into psychiatric hospitals seven times, staying between one and ten days each time. In January 1998, Gilbert stood trial for calling in a bomb threat to the Northampton VAMC to retaliate against coworkers and former boyfriend James Perrault (who also worked at the hospital) for their participation in the investigation. In April 1998, Gilbert was convicted of that crime.

VA hospital staff members speculated that Gilbert may have been responsible for 350 or more deaths and more than 300 medical emergencies. The prosecutor in her case, Assistant US Attorney William M. Welch II, asserted that Gilbert used these emergency situations to gain the attention of then-boyfriend Perrault, a VA police officer – hospital rules required that hospital police be present at any medical emergency. Perrault testified against her, saying that she confessed at least one murder to him by phone while she was hospitalized in a psychiatric ward. Defense attorney David P. Hoose claimed reasonable doubt based on a lack of direct evidence.

William Boutelle, a psychiatrist who served as chief of staff at the Northampton VAMC, has theorized that she created emergency medical crisis situations to display her proficiency as a nurse. At the trial, prosecutors said she used a large kitchen knife in an assault in Greenfield, Massachusetts in January or February 1988. Prosecutors said she tried twice to murder a person by poison in November 1995. Prosecutors said that Gilbert tried to poison a patient at the VA hospital on January 28, 1996, and that she caused a medical emergency by removing a patient's breathing tube at the VA hospital on January 30, 1994.

Prosecutors said that Gilbert abandoned a patient undergoing cardiac arrest on November 9, 1995, and then asked another nurse to accompany her on a check of patients. Prosecutors said she waited until her colleague independently spotted the patient's difficulty before raising an alarm. Gilbert forced an untrained colleague to use cardiac defibrillation paddles on a patient during a medical emergency on November 17, 1995, by refusing to use the equipment herself. Prosecutors said Gilbert threatened the life of at least one person verbally and physically in July 1996. While working as a home health aide before becoming a registered nurse and about eight years before her VAMC crimes, Gilbert deliberately scalded a mentally handicapped child with hot bath water.

On March 14, 2001, a federal jury convicted Gilbert on three counts of first-degree murder, one count of second-degree murder and two counts of attempted murder. Though Massachusetts does not have capital punishment, her crimes were committed on federal property and thus subject to the death penalty. Prosecutors, in an attempt to secure a penalty of death, sought to admit evidence of aggravating factors during the penalty phase, including Gilbert's 1998 conviction for the bomb threat; the defense introduced evidence of mitigating factors, including the well-being of Gilbert's two children.

On March 26, 2001, the jury recommended a sentence of life imprisonment. On March 27, the judge formally sentenced Gilbert to four consecutive life terms without the possibility of parole, plus 20 years. She was transferred from a prison for women in Framingham, Massachusetts to FMC Carswell in Fort Worth, Texas, where she has remained ever since.

In July 2003, Gilbert dropped her federal appeal for a new trial after a new US Supreme Court ruling that would have allowed prosecutors to pursue the death penalty upon retrial.

Personal life
Gilbert had two sons with Glenn Gilbert before they divorced in 1998. At the time of her arrest, she lived in Setauket, New York.

When Knighthood Was in Flower (novel)

When Knighthood Was in Flower is the debut novel of American author Charles Major written under the pseudonym, Edwin Caskoden. It was first published by The Bobbs-Merrill Company (then the Bowen-Merrill Company) in 1898 and proved an enormous success.

According to the New York Times, in its third year on the market the book was still selling so well that it was #9 on the list of bestselling novels in the United States for 1900.

The book spawned an entire industry of historical romantic novels and films.

Playwright Paul Kester's play adaptation premiered on Broadway at the Criterion Theatre on January 14, 1901. Starring the actress Julia Marlowe as Mary Tudor, it was a popular and financial success both in New York and subsequently on national tour. Roselle Knott successfully succeeded Julia Marlowe in the part of Mary Tudor. It is Roselle Knott whose photo portrait appears as the frontispiece in the book shown on this page. There is also another photograph of Knott further into the book. It was subsequently revived on Broadway in 1904. By 1907 When Knighthood Was in Flower was still being printed by the reprint publisher, Grosset & Dunlap, when the film rights were sold to Biograph Studios.

It was sometimes known by the title When Knights Were Bold and should not be confused with the 1906 play When Knights Were Bold which also inspired several film adaptations.

Plot summary
Set during the Tudor period of English history, When Knighthood Was in Flower tells the tribulations of Mary Tudor, a younger sister of Henry VIII of England who has fallen in love with a commoner. However, for political reasons, King Henry has arranged for her to wed King Louis XII of France and demands his sister put the House of Tudor first, threatening, "You will marry France and I will give you a wedding present – Charles Brandon's head!"

1908 adaptation
Although no film copy of the film exists, the book is believed to have been adapted to a 1908 motion picture of the same name or under the title When Knights Were Bold  by D. W. Griffith and directed by Wallace McCutcheon.

1922 adaptation
The 1922 version is most remembered as the vehicle for Marion Davies financed by William Randolph Hearst and his company Cosmopolitan Productions. Directed by Robert Vignola and starring Hearst's mistress Marion Davies and Forrest Stanley, it was a big-budget silent film.

1953 adaptation
In 1953, Major's book was remade by Walt Disney with the title The Sword and the Rose in the United States, but released with the original title in the United Kingdom. This version was adapted for the screen by American Lawrence Edward Watkin, but was filmed in the United Kingdom. Directed by Ken Annakin with a British and French cast, it starred Richard Todd and Glynis Johns. In 1955, the film was broadcast on the Disneyland television show in two parts under the original book title When Knighthood Was in Flower.

Giovanni Padovani

Giovanni Padovani (or Paduani) (b. c. 1512) was an Italian mathematician and astronomer. He lived in Verona and was a student of Pietro Pitati. He published a number of esteemed treatises on various astronomical and mathematical subjects, the most well-known of which was a treatise on the sundial called Opus de compositione et usu multiformium horologiorum solarium, pro diversis mundi regionibus, idq(ue) ubique locorum tam in superficie plana horizontali quam murali quoruscumqu(ue) exposita sit, pertractans (Venice, 1570). An expanded and re-written version came out in 1582.

This manual includes instructions for the manufacture and laying out of mural (vertical) and horizontal sundials; contains extensive tables of declinations for various latitudes with both occidental and oriental examples; and provides instructions for the calculation of latitudes. This last section includes a description of a sundial calibrated for the measurement of unequal hours, such as those used in the ecclesiastic calendar, which foresaw twelve hours of light and twelve of dark, which was subject to severe seasonal variations.

John Aaron

John W. Aaron (born 1943) is a former NASA engineer and was a flight controller during the Apollo program. He is widely credited with saving the Apollo 12 mission when it was struck by lightning soon after launch, and also played an important role during the Apollo 13 crisis.

Early life
John Aaron was born in Wellington, Texas, and grew up in rural Western Oklahoma near Vinson, one of the youngest of a family of seven children. His mother was a minister, and his father was a cattle rancher. After spending a year attending Bethany Nazarene College, he transferred to Southwestern Oklahoma State University, from which he graduated in 1964 with a Bachelor of Science degree in Physics. Although he had intended to teach and ranch after graduating from college, he applied for a job with NASA on the recommendation of a friend.

Gemini
When he arrived at NASA, Aaron was trained as an EECOM, a flight controller with specific responsibility for the electrical, environmental and communications systems on board the spacecraft. By January 19, 1965, when the unmanned Gemini 2 was launched, he was already working in Mission Control as Chief EECOM Officer, which he did through 1967.

Apollo
Aaron pivoted his work as Chief EECOM Officer of the Command and Service Module to the Apollo program in 1967 where he continued through 1969. In 1969 he moved on to serve as Section Head, Electrical Power, Electrical & Instrumentation Systems Section, a position he held for 4 years.

Apollo 12
On November 14, 1969, Aaron was on shift for the launch of Apollo 12. Thirty-six seconds after liftoff, the spacecraft was struck by lightning, causing a power surge. Instruments began to malfunction and telemetry data became garbled. The flight director, Gerry Griffin, expected that he would have to abort the mission. However, Aaron realized that he had previously seen this odd pattern of telemetry.

A year before the flight, Aaron observed a test at Kennedy Space Center and noticed some unusual telemetry readings. On his own initiative, he traced this anomaly back to the obscure Signal Conditioning Electronics (SCE) system, and became one of the few flight controllers who was familiar with the system and its operations. For the case that first drew his attention to the system, normal readings could be restored by putting the SCE on its auxiliary setting, which meant that it would operate even with low-voltage conditions.

Aaron surmised that this setting would also return the Apollo 12 telemetry to normal. When he made the call to the Flight Director, "Flight, EECOM. Try SCE to Aux", most of his mission control colleagues had no idea what he was talking about. Both the flight director and the CAPCOM Gerald P. Carr asked him to repeat the recommendation. Aaron repeated himself and Carr responded "What the hell's that?" Yet he relayed the order to the crew: "Apollo 12, Houston. Try SCE to auxiliary." Dick Gordon, a ground expert on the CSM as well as the Apollo 12 command module pilot, was familiar with both the location and the function of the SCE switch, and instructed Alan Bean to flip it to aux. Telemetry was immediately restored, allowing the mission to continue. This earned Aaron the lasting respect of his colleagues, who declared that he was a "steely-eyed missile man".

Apollo 13
Aaron was off duty when the Apollo 13 explosion occurred, but was quickly called to Mission Control to assist in the rescue and recovery effort. Flight Director Gene Kranz put Aaron in charge of the power supply budget. He was allowed to veto the ideas of other engineers, particularly when they affected the power usage of the modules. He was in charge of rationing the spacecraft's power during the return flight and, with help from grounded Apollo 13 crew member Ken Mattingly, devised an innovative power up sequence that allowed the Command Module to re-enter safely while operating on limited battery power.

Contrary to existing procedures, he ordered the instrumentation system, which included telemetry, visibility, and the transmitters for communications, to be turned on last, just before reentry, rather than first. The call was a calculated risk. Without the instrumentation system, the crew and controllers would not know for certain if the cold startup had been successful until the last possible moment before reentry. However without the change, the capsule would have exhausted its battery supply before splashdown. The procedure was a success, and the crew was recovered safely.

Later career
After the Apollo Lunar Surface program ended, Aaron remained at NASA in the Spacecraft Software Division rising through the ranks of technical assistant to the chief in 1973 to assistant chief in 1979 before taking on the role of chief 1981–1984.

Beginning in 1984, he worked on Space Station Freedom project becoming manager of Johnson Space Center's space station projects office during 1989. On February 12, 1993, he was forced to resign from the job after Texas Senator Robert Krueger blamed him for $500 million of overspending on the station project.

Aaron became a manager in Johnson Space Center's Engineering Directorate in 1993, and stayed in the directorate until his retirement from NASA in 2000.

In film
Aaron was portrayed by actor Loren Dean in the 1995 movie Apollo 13. Aaron was also played by John Travis in the 1998 mini-series From the Earth to the Moon. He was interviewed in the PBS documentary Apollo 13: To the Edge and Back, and in two History Channel documentaries about Mission Control, Failure Is Not an Option and Beyond the Moon: Failure Is Not an Option 2.

The 2015 science fiction film The Martian contains a reference to the "steely-eyed missile man" title bestowed on Aaron, as does the Legends of Tomorrow second-season episode "Moonshot".

In 2017, Aaron appeared in David Fairhead's documentary Mission Control: The Unsung Heroes of Apollo.

R504 Kolyma Highway

The R504 Kolyma Highway (Федеральная автомобильная дорога «Колыма», Federal'naya Avtomobil'naya Doroga «Kolyma», "Federal Automobile Highway 'Kolyma'"), part of the M56 route, is a road through the Russian Far East. It connects Magadan with the town of Nizhny Bestyakh, located on the eastern bank of the Lena River, opposite of Yakutsk. At Nizhny Bestyakh the Kolyma Highway connects to the Lena Highway.

The Kolyma Highway is colloquially known as the Road of Bones (Russian: Дорога Костей Doróga Kostéy). Locally, the road is known as the Kolyma Route (Russian: Колымская трасса Kolýmskaya trássa).

History

The Dalstroy construction directorate built the Kolyma Highway during the Soviet Union's Stalinist era. Inmates of the Sevvostlag labour camp started the first stretch in 1932, and construction continued with the use of gulag labour until 1953.

The road is treated as a memorial by some, as the bones of the estimated 250,0001,000,000 imprisoned labourers who died while constructing it were allegedly laid beneath or around the road, although documented sources have yet to confirm this through further evidence. As the road is built on permafrost, the popular rumor spread through western and dissident accounts is that interment into the fabric of the road was deemed more practical than digging new holes to bury the bodies of the dead.

Present
In 2008, the road was granted Federal Road status and is now a frequently maintained all-weather gravel road.

When the road was upgraded, the route was changed to bypass the section from Kyubeme to Kadykchan via Tomtor, and instead pass from Kyubeme to Kadykchan via a more northern route through the town of Ust-Nera. The old 420 km section via Tomtor was largely unmaintained; the 200 km section between Tomtor and Kadykchan was completely abandoned. This section is known as the Old Summer Road, and has fallen into disrepair, with washed-out bridges and sections of road reclaimed by streams in summer. During winter, frozen rivers may assist river crossings. Old Summer Road remains one of the great challenges for adventuring motorcyclists and 4WDers.

The area is extremely cold during the winter. The town of Oymyakon, approximately 100 km from the highway, is believed to be the coldest inhabited place on earth. The average low temperature in Oymyakon in January is −50°C. In 2020, a teenage motorist froze to death by following Google Maps directions to use the shorter but abandoned section of the road via Tomtor, on which his car broke down, and his surviving travel mate lost most of his limbs due to frostbite.

Route
There is also a scenic shortcut from Magadan to Susuman via Ust-Omchug called the Tenkinskaya Trassa, which receives a lot less heavy traffic than the main section of the M56 between Magadan and Susuman.

Distances: Yakutsk to Khandyga 380 km, on to Kyubeme 320 km, to Kadykchan (via Tomtor) 420 km, Kadykchan to Susuman 90 km, Susuman to Magadan 630 km. From Kyubeme to Kadykchan north via Ust-Nera (the new, maintained section) is about 650 km.

As of the summer of 2010, the Old Summer Road via Tomtor was still passable to motorcycles and 4×4s.

Road to Chukotka
The Anadyr Highway project from the Kolyma Highway to Anadyr in Chukotka passes Omsukchan, Omolon, and Ilirney with branch roads to Bilibino and Egvekinot, involving construction of 1800 km of road. The construction of the first 50 kilometers of the road started in 2012.

As of 2021, Ross and Justin Davidson at New York are the only classical music critics who write regularly for a general-interest American magazine.

The music critic Edward Rothstein has said that Ross tries "to restore critical vigour by loosening the boundaries isolating the classical tradition from the world of politics and popular culture". Ross maintains a popular classical music blog, The Rest is Noise, which the musicologist Lars Helgert called "among the most highly regarded web resources for classical music criticism".

His first book, The Rest Is Noise: Listening to the Twentieth Century, a cultural history of music since 1900, was released in the U.S. in 2007 by Farrar, Straus and Giroux and in the U.K. in 2008. The book received widespread critical praise in the U.S., garnering a National Book Critics Circle Award, a spot on The New York Times list of the ten best books of 2007, and a finalist citation for the Pulitzer Prize in general nonfiction. It was also shortlisted for the 2008 Samuel Johnson Prize for nonfiction. His second book, Listen to This, was released in the U.S. in September 2010 by Farrar, Straus and Giroux and was published in the U.K. in November 2010. In September 2020, his third book, Wagnerism, came out.

Ross married director Jonathan Lisecki in Canada in 2006. He is now based in New York City, living in Chelsea, Manhattan.

Awards and honors
Ross has received a MacArthur Fellowship (2008), three ASCAP Deems Taylor Awards for music writing, and a Holtzbrinck fellowship at the American Academy in Berlin. In 2012 he received the Belmont Prize for Contemporary Music at the pèlerinages Art Festival in Weimar. In 2016, he was awarded the Champion of New Music award by the American Composers Forum.

Please stop adding nonsense to Wikipedia. It is considered vandalism. If you were just trying to experiment, then use the sandbox instead. Thank you. Wikibofh 17:14, August 31, 2005 (UTC)

Please stop. If you continue to vandalize pages, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. This is pure vandalism Wikibofh 17:28, August 31, 2005 (UTC)

The above test messages are incorrect. I made a mistake doing reverts and was going to the wrong version. Siegfried was cleaning them up, and I was reading it as him adding it back. He's correct. Sorry about the confusion, my fault. Wikibofh 17:41, August 31, 2005 (UTC)

Oh, and since no one has done this, how about:

File source problem with File:LilyPhoto1.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:LilyPhoto1.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear.

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Soulhouse. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Soulhouse~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 03:06, 20 March 2015 (UTC)

Renamed
 This account has been renamed as part of single-user login finalisation. If you own this account you can |log in using your previous username and password for more information. If you do not like this account's new name, you can choose your own using this form after logging in: . -- Keegan (WMF) (talk) 19:05, 22 April 2015 (UTC)

Talk:Rheocord

This word came up when we were adding entries from the Nuttall Encyclopedia. A Rheocord is apparently an obsolete scientific instrument. As Rick Boatright puts it:

"The Nuttall definition of this and of Rheometry is hoplessly out of date. The term, as used in Nuttall refers to Rheostats, commonly now called Potentiometers, which are variable resisters to and is, essentially a mechanisms for measuring voltage. Rheometry now refers to the measurement of shear stress and displacement in materials. The older name is utterly deprecated... Rick Boatright 02:59, 31 August 2005 (UTC)" (from Nuttall_Encyclopedia_topics/19)

Image:MaiaChi.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:MaiaChi.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a free image could reasonably be found or created. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:
 * 1) Go to the image description page and edit it to add
 * 2) On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on [ this link]. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. – Quadell (talk) (random) 22:42, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
