Classical High School

Classical High School, founded in 1843, is a public magnet school in the Providence School District, in Providence, Rhode Island. It was originally an all-male school but has since become co-ed. Classical's motto is Certare, Petere, Reperire, Neque Cedere, a Latin translation of the famous phrase taken from Tennyson's poem "Ulysses", "To Strive, to Seek, to Find, and Not to Yield". It has been rated "High Performing and Sustaining" by its performance in 2005 on the New Standards Reference Exam, placing third in the state. The school also made Newsweek's America's Best High Schools of 2012 with a 99% graduation rate, 95% college bound, an average SAT score of 1578, and an average AP score of 2.8. Classical High School stands roughly at the intersection of the Federal Hill, West End, and Upper South Providence neighborhoods.

Architecture

Classical High School's current building was finished in 1970 and is one of few buildings in the area created in the Brutalist architectural style. The original school buildings had become outdated by the 1950s and after several fires and years of study, the city launched a competition for a new education complex in 1963. The winning design was by noted local architects Harkness & Geddes in collaboration with Walter Gropius, who founded The Architects Collaborative (TAC), the famous Boston architectural firm.

William McKenzie Woodward, a well-known architectural historian and staff member of the Rhode Island Historical Preservation & Heritage Commission, does not agree aesthetically with the building, going so far as to write in his Guide to Providence Architecture, "It's no wonder Modernism has gotten such a bad reputation in Rhode Island because it smells very bad there." In 1986 McKenzie had however admitted in his survey for the Preservation Commission that "The new complex, the first of its kind in Providence built to serve a stable rather than expanding population, was well received as an ample and functional facility." Quoting John Ware Lincoln, then chairman of the Division of Design at Rhode Island School of Design as having noted: "The new Classical buildings are fine architecture, by the old standards, but they are also exemplary of the new concept of the architect as an environmental planner, working with social and civic sciences, demography, transportation engineering, building technologies, and, in this case, education philosophy."

The previous building, designed by Martin & Hall, was a yellow brick building with a peaked roof (under which was the study hall). It was considerably smaller and was bounded by Pond Street, which was consumed in the creation of the new campus. When the old building was razed the yellow bricks were sold to students and alumni.

Increased equity
Hi there. I noticed you contributed an article for which your edit summary claimed the source "Windows on Humanity” by Conrad Phillip Kottak". I have redirected the article to Distribution of wealth for a few reasons. One, I fear you have copied the text from Kottak verbatim, which is a copyright problem even if you say where you got it. Two, I'm not sure that "increased equity" is a term that needs an encyclopedia article. Is it a common term people use, or is it a term invented by Kottak? If it is a neologism, it is probably not appropriate for an article. If you think I was wrong to redirect the article, or think there's a better place to redirect to, let me know, or edit the article yourself if you'd prefer.

Your original contributions could probably be used at Distribution of wealth, which is pretty sparse for such an important topic. NickelShoe 19:41, 29 December 2005 (UTC)

Your articles
Hello Etv, Im Moe Epsilon. I saw where you created the article Eric Langley-Athletic Trainer. Someone has put it up for speedy deletion according to Wikipedias policy. DO NOT create articles that of are that low of quality. Also dont create articles just so there isnt a red link. Something else I wanted to point out was the way you red linked something. You created an article called Eric Langley-Athletic Trainer, instead of that, call it Eric Langley. If you have any questions you can contact me with them. — M o e   ε  21:32, 2 September 2005 (UTC)

I took it upon myself to recreate the Eric Langley article. — M o e   ε  21:50, 2 September 2005 (UTC)

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 Etv. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Etv~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.

Talk:World domination (disambiguation)

/Archive 1 /Archive 2

List of crossovers in fiction
Uses term, with link! --Ludvikus (talk) 01:53, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

World domination, in politics

 * Hegemony, predominant influence exercised by one nation over others.
 * Hyperpower, a state that is militarily, economically and technologically dominant on the world stage.
 * Superpower, a state with a leading position in the international system and the ability to influence events and its own interests and project power on a worldwide scale to protect those interests.
 * That "original research. --Ludvikus (talk) 03:17, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

Reword politics
I reworded the politics descriptions to more closely match the articles they refer to. Also archived old discussions--Work permit (talk) 07:27, 19 January 2010 (UTC)

Summit (game),
I deleted Summit entry. The title of the game is not world domination. It is just a game whose theme is world domination. --Work permit (talk) 02:57, 12 February 2010 (UTC)

A note regarding disambiguation "standards"
Yes, it's good that you wish to make disambiguations consistent throughout the site... but removing the content of this page defeats its purpose, and it might as well be nominated for deletion if it MUST be strict to the definition. WP:IAR applies here. The page as it is serves the purpose of a non-existant unsourceable World domination article. It's closer to a disambiguation than not, so it was classed as one (As it serves to point users to the correct article). Besides this, there is a good consensus to leave the page as is. -  ʄɭoʏɗiaɲ  τ ¢  15:26, 21 February 2010 (UTC)

 * I'll add that MOS-DAB is a guideline, not a policy. Certainly MOS-DAB should generally be followed on a disambig page. But this particular page has a unique history as can be seen by the active discussions in the archives page.--Work permit (talk) 01:25, 22 February 2010 (UTC)

A guideline is for a solid reason. And that there is no wikipedia article "world domination" is also for a reason. These reasons were voiced by wikipedia community. I don't see any reason to bend these reasons for your wants. - Altenmann >t 00:00, 23 February 2010 (UTC)

 * There is no article because it's hard to find a piece of literature which describes the term. It exists, but until then, this is a disambiguation page as well as providing links to terms that discuss the topic at hand. The guideline is for a solid reason, but exceptions exist. Instead of insisting on following it to a tee, take note of the needs of readers searching 'world domination'. -  ʄɭoʏɗiaɲ  τ ¢  00:59, 23 February 2010 (UTC)

I think we'd all agree that consensus policy "dominates" any guideline (sorry for the poor pun). Shall we open a new wp:rfc? Perhaps a bit more structured then the last one? I think we all agree with Altenmann's observation that the sections he deleted don't belong on a DAB per MOS-DAB. If the only reason to keep these sections in the DAB, in violation of guidelines is possible confusion caused by the articles that link to this page, then I am willing to change those links to the appropriate article and leave this page as a "strict" dab page. I actually started doing that a while back when consensus on this DAB was first being formed. If the extended DAB is the best compromise between a strict DAB and edit wars, I'm fine with having an extended DAB.--Work permit (talk) 02:42, 23 February 2010 (UTC)

 * Reasoned consensus on a talk page can certainly lead to the occasional exception to a guideline. The banner at the top of WP:MOSDAB says: This guideline is a part of the English Wikipedia's Manual of Style. Use common sense in applying it; it will have occasional exceptions. Please ensure that any edits to this page reflect consensus. older ≠ wiser 03:11, 23 February 2010 (UTC)

 * I tried to meet both goals: applying the guidelines to help readers who are looking for one of the ambiguously-titled articles, and also listing the other articles that are related to the concept of "world domination". If this is acceptable to everyone, I might also suggest moving the page to "World Domination" (capital-d) to reflect to most common ambiguous title. If it's not acceptable, I'd recommend splitting the page into a disambiguation page (listing the ambguously-titled articles) and a list article List of multi-nation authorities or somesuch. -- JHunterJ (talk) 11:58, 23 February 2010 (UTC)
 * The solution implemented by JHunterJ is in the right direction. - Altenmann >t 19:49, 24 February 2010 (UTC)
 * I agree with Altenmann. While a strict reading of MOS-DAB would lead one to conclude that these entries don't belong in the See also section, I think it works better to put the items there rather then the main section.  It will cause less confusion to typical DAB users.  In addition, I suppose the terms listed could be confused with World domination, in which case we would be in compliance with guidelines.  Weak argument, made stronger by  Altenmann's deletion of Imperialism and Empire.  --Work permit (talk) 01:51, 25 February 2010 (UTC)

 * "Occasional exceptions" are in the standard header for MOS pages. Exceptions are related to style, not to content. DAB pages have very specific content and purpose. They are technical pages similar to redirects, categories, lists, etc. While it is allowable (but quite hard, I must say) to tweak their layout, tweaking with their main purpose is bad thing:it defeats the purpose of introducing special kinds of pages. - Altenmann >t 19:57, 24 February 2010 (UTC)

 * Conquer the World used to redirect to this page, then was changed to a link to the micropose. Risk (game) or La Conquête du Monde (French for "conquer the world"),  and Conquer the World, (a compilation of strategy games by Microprose) used to be in the "main" section of this page.  I just changed the the "conquer the world" page to a DAB, put the two board games in the main section of that article and a see also link to this one--Work permit (talk) 02:27, 25 February 2010 (UTC)

 * I found when I was changing links in articles from World domination to one of the others on the list, hegemony tended to be the one I linked to the most. So I could argue that Hegemony belongs on the list more then superpower.  But I'm fine either way.  I'm also fine with removing superpower from the current list--Work permit (talk) 02:54, 25 February 2010 (UTC).

Draft:World domination is underway.
A draft is underway at Draft:World domination to replace the current disambiguation page with an article on the broad concept. Cheers! bd2412 T 14:19, 30 January 2014 (UTC)

Dendralene

A dendralene is a discrete acyclic cross-conjugated polyene. The simplest dendralene is buta-1,3-diene (1) or [2]dendralene followed by [3]dendralene (2), [4]dendralene (3) and [5]dendralene (4) and so forth. [2]dendralene (butadiene) is the only one not cross-conjugated.

 * [[Image:Dendralenes general.svg|Meet the dendralenes]]

The name dendralene is pulled together from the words dendrimer, linear and alkene. The higher dendralenes are of scientific interest because they open up a large array of new organic compounds from a relatively simple precursor especially by Diels-Alder chemistry. Their cyclic counterparts are aptly called radialenes.

Synthesis
Vinylbutadiene ([3]dendralene) was first prepared in 1955 by pyrolysis of a triacetate:
 * Vinyl butadiene synthesis Baily 1955.svg

This compound reacts with two equivalents of maleic anhydride in a tandem DA reaction:
 * Reaction vinylbutadiene maleic anhydride.svg

With benzoquinone the reaction product was a linear polymer.

Several syntheses of substituted [3]dendralenes have been reported, one via an allene, one via a Horner–Wadsworth–Emmons reaction, one via a cross-coupling reaction and one from an allylic carbonate.

One synthetic route to [4]dendralene starts from chloroprene. This compound is converted to a Grignard reagent by action of magnesium metal which is then reacted with copper(I) chloride to an organocopper intermediate which is in turn dimerized using copper(II) chloride in an oxidative coupling reaction to give the butadiene dimer called [4]dendralene.

 * [[Image:4-dendralene.svg|[4]dendralene synthetic scheme from chloroprene]]

The gas-phase molecular structure of [4]dendralene has been reported

The [8]-dendralene compound was reported in 2009:
 * [[Image:8-dendralene.svg|[8]-dendralene synthesis]]

in a successive Kumada–Tamao–Corriu coupling and Negishi coupling.

A series of [9] to [12]-dendralenes has been reported in 2016

Properties
Even-membered dendralenes (e.g. [6]dendralene, [8]dendralene) tend to behave as chains of decoupled and isolated diene units. The ultraviolet absorption maxima equal that of butadiene itself. The dendralenes with an odd number of alkene units are more reactive due to the presence of favorable s-cis diene conformations and Diels-Alder reactions take place more easily with a preference for the termini.

Reactions
With simple dienophiles, dendralenes can give quick access to complex molecules in Diels-Alder reactions. Several reaction schemes have been reported

[4]dendralene shows a tandem Diels-Alder reaction with the dienophile N-methyl-maleimide (NMM). Complete site selectivity is possible with the addition of the Lewis acid methyldichloroaluminium. With one set of premixing and 2 equivalents of NMM, the central diene group is targeted to the monoadduct 3. With another set and a larger amount of dienophile, the terminal groups react and the reaction proceeds from the monoadduct to the trisadducts 2 and 2b.

One reaction variation is cyclopropanation to a compound class called ivyanes with a reported synthesis in a Simmons–Smith reaction (diethyl zinc / trifluoroacetic acid) of the first 6 members. These 1,1-oligocyclopropanes are stable (except when exposed to acids) and have a large heat of combustion with [6]ivyane exceeding that of cubane. The oligocyclopropane chains adopt a helical conformation. For [3]dendralene a photochemical cyclisation reaction has been reported

Derivatives
A bicyclic [4]dendralene compound has been reported.

Swarm (Marvel Comics)

Swarm is a supervillain appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. The character's entire body is composed of bees, and is mainly featured as an enemy of Spider-Man.

Publication history
Swarm first appeared in The Champions #14 (July 1977). He was created by Bill Mantlo and John Byrne.

Fictional character biography
Fritz von Meyer was born in Leipzig, Germany and became one of Adolf Hitler's top scientists specializing in toxicology and melittology. Escaping capture after World War II, he was a beekeeper or apiarist in South America and discovered a colony of mutated bees. Intrigued by their intelligence and passive nature, von Meyer attempted to enslave the queen bee but failed and the bees devoured him, leaving only his skeleton. The bees' unique qualities caused von Meyer's consciousness to be absorbed into them, allowing him to manipulate the hive to do his will while his skeletal remains are inside the swarm itself. His consciousness merged with the hive to the extent that they are one being, calling himself/themselves "Swarm".

Swarm battled the Champions. After being defeated, Swarm resurfaced to battle Spider-Man. In the first of many fights, Spider-Man prevailed against him when the web-slinger's costume was dosed in a new type of insecticide that hurt the bees if they got too close. Swarm lost his/their skeleton in this battle but returned to fight again (no longer having the skeleton but still possessing von Meyer's consciousness), first teaming with Kraven the Hunter against Iceman and Firestar, then against Spider-Man, but feedback from a weapon fired by the Rhino caused Swarm's bee body to disperse temporarily.

Swarm next appears when a Super-Collider from Rand Industries is activated and called his/their attention. Swarm decides mankind should be exterminated so insects can rule the world. Doctor Druid convinced Swarm that mankind will exterminate themselves and the age of insects can begin. Eventually, Swarm was tired of waiting and returned to New York, after a psychic wave generated by Onslaught disrupted the psychic field that bonded him and the bees together. He forced a group of scientists investigating energy fields to help him not only restore his original field, but expand it to grant him control of every bee on Earth. As New York City is invaded by bees, the Scarlet Spider tracked the bees to their destination and — taking advantage of the fact that the swarms' instinctive memory of Raid caused the bees to automatically flinch away from Spider-Man — infiltrated the building to contact the scientists. By claiming that the scientists' equipment is having trouble broadcasting a sufficiently powerful signal through the dome of bees, Scarlet Spider is able to trick Swarm into allowing a device's construction designed to negate the vibrational frequency that the bees create to allow themselves to fly, presenting it as a means of boosting the existing signal's power. With the bees now grounded, Scarlet Spider subsequently recovers the queen of Swarm's hive and leaves the authorities' care, reasoning Swarm won't be a future threat without her.

Now back with an internal skeleton, Swarm felt that the criminal organization Pride's fall allowed access to their former territory, specifically Los Angeles. However, he/they are defeated by the Los Angeles' protector Runaways when his/their body of bees' mental link is disrupted by electrical blasts.

Swarm regained control over his colony and joins the Chameleon's Exterminators to kill their shared enemy now that Peter Parker's true identity is revealed. Swarm attacks Mary Jane Watson but the latter sprays Swarm with water while a co-worker smashes Swarm's skeleton, but the bees reformed around the skeleton as Stark Industries' bodyguards take him/them away.

When Alyosha Kravinoff began collecting a zoo of animal-themed superhumans, Swarm is in one of the cages. He fought Gargoyle as the Punisher passes them and escaped.

Swarm next turns up in Denver, Colorado, having amassed enough bees to become giant-sized. The Thunderbolts face him/them unsuccessfully until Venom devours Swarm's bones. Norman Osborn speculated this is a minor inconvenience that shouldn't prevent Swarm's return.

Swarm next turns up in Buenos Aires, having his intelligence again. He fought the Mighty Avengers by creating 'avatars' made of bees. Hank Pym, Stature and Amadeus Cho place an inhibitor collar on the queen bees which caused Swarm's intelligence to somehow disperse.

He was briefly seen trying to launch an attack of the Jean Grey School for Higher Learning only to be almost instantly thwarted by the X-Men's Krakoa, the Bamfs, and Doop.

Swarm later formed his own incarnation of the Sinister Six with 8-Ball, Delilah, Killer Shrike, Melter and Squid. They attack Spider-Man and the students of the Jean Grey School for Higher Learning. Swarm gets dispersed by Hellion which caused the other members to surrender.

Swarm later attacked New York but was defeated by Squirrel Girl and her ally Koi Boi covering him with water and turning bags full of his constituent bees in to the police.

Swarm later appeared as a member of the Hateful Hexad alongside Bearboarguy, Gibbon, Ox, Squid and White Rabbit. During the disastrous battle against Spider-Man and Deadpool, the battle is crashed by Itsy Bitsy.

Swarm relocates to Florida, where he encounters Macrothrax and his minions who are also sentient insect colonies in humanoid form, accidentally created by the invention behind him. He ends up joining forces with Ant-Man and taking a liking to the latter.

Powers and abilities
Fritz von Meyer is a composite being of thousand bees driven by his human intelligence. He is also technically intangible, as well as his body's an aggregate of tiny forms. As Swarm, he can fly through the air, assume any shape or size at will, and mentally influence other bee's actions (the full range may extend over a hundred yards in radius). At this end, Swarm seemed capable of controlling a mutant bee queen and through her countless drones. He even has exhibited a limited amount of super strength. As von Meyer, he possesses expertise in beekeeping, robotics, and toxicology.

Marvel Fairy Tales
In the second issue of the Spider-Man line of Marvel Fairy Tales (an adaptation of the legend of Anansi), an alternate version of Swarm appears as the stories' main villain, the Yellow and purple spider.

Marvel Adventures
Swarm recently appeared and fought Spider-Man in Marvel Adventures. He/they supposedly wanted to take over the world (or at least kill a few jocks), but it looked like he/they just wanted some ice cream.

Ultimate Marvel
The Ultimate Marvel equivalent of Swarm is Petra Laskov, a Syrian female mutant also known as the Insect Queen, and the Red-Wasp.

Marvel Noir
The Marvel Noir universe's equivalent is Madame Sturm, a Nazi scientist. She finds the same Spider-God totem behind Peter Parker's powers which she uses to mutate herself into a bee god and calls herself Madame Swarm. She is defeated when Spider-Man Noir lures her towards a Nazi blimp that Spider-Man blows up with the Venom sting.

Television

 * An original incarnation of Swarm appears in a self-titled episode of Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends, voiced by Al Fann. This version is a beehive irradiated by a fallen meteorite's energy, gaining sentience as well as the ability to increase other bees' size and mutate humans into insect hybrid drones. Swarm attempts to spread its hive mind throughout the universe until Spider-Man, Firestar, and Iceman intervene and launch the meteorite into space to reverse Swarm's effects.
 * An original incarnation of Swarm, Michael Tan, appears in Ultimate Spider-Man, voiced by Eric Bauza in his self-titled episode and Drake Bell in "Sandman Returns". This version is a disgruntled Stark Industries employee who built a device to control technology, only for it to fuse him with Spider-Man's spider-tracer at the molecular level, granting him the ability to control a swarm of self-replicating nanobots and assimilate technology.
 * Swarm appears in Marvel Super Hero Adventures, voiced by Ian James Corlett.
 * An original incarnation of Swarm, Jefferson Davis, appears in Spider-Man, voiced by Alex Désert. This version utilizes purple nanotech bees that grant him a solid form and have mind-controlling stingers.

Video games

 * Swarm appears as an unlockable playable character in Marvel Strike Force. This version is a member of the Sinister Six.

Miscellaneous

 * Swarm appears in Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark, portrayed by Gerald Avery. This version was originally an Oscorp scientist before he was manipulated into becoming Swarm by the Green Goblin and joining his Sinister Six.
 * The Symbiotic Warfare Anthophila Restraining Model (S.W.A.R.M.) appears in Spider-Man: City at War.

Reception
In August 2009, TIME listed Swarm as one of the "Top 10 Oddest Marvel Characters".

Swarm was ranked #29 on a listing of Marvel Comics' monster characters in 2015.

We're Outta Here!

We're Outta Here! is the fourth live album by the American punk band the Ramones. It was released on November 18, 1997, through Eagle Rock Records.

Background
The album was recorded for Billboard Live at The Palace in Los Angeles, California on August 6, 1996, when the Ramones performed their final concert. The show featured several special guests, including former band member Dee Dee Ramone, as well as members of bands who were influenced by the Ramones such as Lemmy from Motörhead, Eddie Vedder from Pearl Jam, Tim Armstrong and Lars Frederiksen of Rancid, and Chris Cornell and Ben Shepherd of Soundgarden. We're Outta Here! is the only album by the Ramones to receive a Parental Advisory sticker, due to vocalist Joey Ramone shouting out profanities during or in between songs.

Personnel
Ramones

1994 or 2004?
The main body of the article, from which I just pulled all the information for the infobox I just added, says the bridge was completed in 2004. However, it's got category "Bridges completed in 1994". So, who is correct? References? - Denimadept (talk) 20:31, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

Gaelic Park

Gaelic Park (Páirc na nGael ) is a multi-purpose outdoor athletics facility, located at West 240th Street and Broadway in the Kingsbridge neighborhood of the Bronx in New York City, New York, United States. Since 1926 the grounds has been used as the venue for Gaelic games in New York, and since its purchase by Manhattan College in 1991 it has hosted numerous American college athletic events.

Located just west of Broadway and south and west of Van Cortlandt Park in the northernmost part of the Bronx just south of the city border with Westchester County, Gaelic Park was purchased in 1926 by the Gaelic Athletic Association of Greater New York. It has been given a few different names over time including Innisfail Park, but since the 1950s it has gone by its current name, Gaelic Park, a reflection of the park's decidedly Irish flavor. The park includes a playing field and dance hall. In addition to hurling and football matches, a number of other sporting events take place at Gaelic Park. There are also concerts and dances that feature Irish music both old and new.

History
Gaelic Park was bought by the Gaelic Athletic Association of Greater New York (GAA) in 1926. It started off as a very rough pitch that served as a social center for the many Irish immigrants to The Bronx. With the absence of film centers and other entertainment complexes, hurling at the park was the main entertainment.

The GAA ran the park for about 10 years until it was forced into bankruptcy, after which the city took over the land. The property was then leased again in 1941 to John "Kerry" O’Donnell, who with the help of his family and friends ran the park, dance hall, and tavern. For several years, it was called "Croke Park" after the main GAA stadium in Dublin.

In 1947, John "Lefty" Devine became the public address announcer and the play by play announcer for Gaelic Park. He did both jobs for at least 18 years until 1965. Devine was born in New York. His father was born in Newmarket-upon-Fergus, County Clare and his mother was born in Mullinahone, County Tipperary. In 1965, it took Mr. Devine about 6 hours to announce the 5 games played there each Sunday. Mr. Devine was the play by play announcer at the Polo Grounds in a Gaelic football match of Meath vs New York.

In 1964, Robert F Kennedy attended a game at Gaelic Park. He addressed the crowd with a microphone. Jokingly, he said to the crowd "Every morning before breakfast my children say 'Up Wexford.'" His paternal grandparents were from New Ross, County Wexford.

As of 1965, Gaelic Park had a capacity of 12,000 people.

The Grateful Dead performed in Gaelic Park on August 26, 1971, to a crowd of 15,000 fans. It would be the last time the band would perform in their original quintet configuration of Jerry, Phil, Pig, Billy and Bobby. Other major bands of the 1970's played here as well, e.g., Chicago, Edgar and Johnny Winter, the J Geils band, and several others.

The park was taken over by Manhattan College in 1991. The college has kept up the traditions of Gaelic Park, as well as doing some significant renovations, and now also uses it for home games of lacrosse, rugby, soccer, and softball.

In early 2007, a $3 million renovation of Gaelic Park began. FieldTurf was laid out to replace the natural pitch, which made it more durable for both American and Gaelic sports. In addition, facilities for softball were improved, and the installation of stadium lighting made night games possible.

In April 2019, the banquet hall of Gaelic Park was torn down and replaced with support from the GAA, the Irish Department of Foreign Affairs, and other donations and sponsors.

New York did not compete in the 2020 and 2021 Connacht Senior Football Championship (a precursor to the 2020 and 2021 Senior All Ireland Football Championships) due to Covid-19 travel restrictions, but returned to competition in 2022 with a first round home game at Gaelic Park against Sligo on Sunday April 17. On April 8, 2023 New York enjoyed their first Connacht championship win at Gaelic Park, beating after a penalty shootout.

Rugby
The first known rugby game was the final game of the Cambridge Vandals north American tour in 1933. The Vandals with a team including several internationals from the United Kingdom prevailed with a late score to maintain their unbeaten record in all eight games played.

Cheikh Touré

Cheikhou Tidiane Touré (born January 25, 1970) is a Senegal-born French athlete who specialised in the long jump. He retired after the 2003 season.

His best international performance came in the 1997 World Championships, where he finished 7th.

His personal best jump was 8.46, a result he achieved in Bad Langensalza on June 15, 1997. As this happened before he became a French national, the result was an African record which stood for over twelve years. Ignisious Gaisah of Ghana jumped 8.51 m at the 2006 African Championships in Athletics, but as the tail wind was too strong (+3.7 m/s) the result could not become a new record. On July 4, 2009, Godfrey Khotso Mokoena of South Africa jumped 8.50 m in Madrid setting a new record.

Stanley Rogers Resor

Stanley Rogers Resor (December 5, 1917 – April 17, 2012) was an American lawyer, military officer, and government official.

Early life and education
Born in New York City, he was the son of Helen Lansdowne Resor and Stanley B. Resor (pronounced REE-zor), president of the J. W. Thompson advertising agency and one of the originators of the modern advertising industry. While still a teenager he changed his name from Stanley Burnet Resor Jr. to Stanley Rogers Resor.

After attending the Groton School, Resor attended Yale University, where he was tapped to join Scroll and Key. He graduated in 1939 and went on to Yale Law School where he was a contemporary of Sargent Shriver (also a member of Scroll and Key), Gerald Ford, and Cyrus Vance (who preceded him as Secretary of the Army and himself was a member of Scroll and Key and in the same year at Yale). Resor's education was interrupted by service as an Army officer in World War II (1942–1946), where he was awarded the Silver Star, Bronze Star, and the Purple Heart.

Career
After the war, Resor went to work on Wall Street, and was made partner in the prominent Debevoise & Plimpton law firm. In 1965 during the Vietnam War, President Lyndon Johnson appointed him Secretary of the Army and he remained in the position under President Richard Nixon until 1971. In 1984, he was awarded the United States Military Academy's Sylvanus Thayer Award.

During the 1970s he served as US ambassador to the MBFR (mutual and balanced force reduction) talks in Vienna, held between NATO and the Warsaw Pact. Over time he grew critical of U.S. policy regarding nuclear weapons, and was a member of and spokesperson for the Arms Control Association of America in 1997 when it protested NATO expansion into Eastern Europe based on concerns about the reaction of the Russian government to perceived encroachment by NATO. He returned to Debevoise & Plimpton after he left government service and retired in 1991.

Personal life
Resor married Jane Pillsbury of the Pillsbury family in 1942 in a ceremony attended by John F. Kennedy and Cyrus Vance. They had seven sons. After Jane's death in 1994 he married Louise Mead Resor in 1999.

Sho shogi

Shō shōgi (小将棋 'small chess') is a 16th-century form of shogi (Japanese chess), and the immediate predecessor of the modern game. It was played on a 9×9 board with the same setup as in modern shogi, except that an extra piece stood in front of the king: a 'drunk elephant' that promoted into a prince, which is effectively a second king. While 9×9 may not seem 'small', it was smaller than the other shogi variants prevalent at the time, which were the 12×12 chu shogi and 15×15 dai shogi. According to the Sho Shōgi Zushiki, the drunk elephant was eliminated by the Emperor Go-Nara (reigned 1526–1557), and it is assumed that the drop rule was introduced at about the same time, giving rise to shogi as we know it today.

Objective
The objective of the game is to capture your opponent's king and crown prince (if present) or all other pieces.

Game equipment
Two players, Black and White (or 先手 sente and 後手 gote), play on a board ruled into a grid of 9 ranks (rows) by 9 files (columns). The squares are undifferentiated by marking or color.

Each player has a set of 21 wedge-shaped pieces, of slightly different sizes. From largest to smallest (most to least powerful) they are:

 * 1 king
 * 1 drunken elephant
 * 1 rook
 * 1 bishop
 * 2 gold generals
 * 2 silver generals
 * 2 knights
 * 2 lances
 * 9 pawns

Most of the English names were chosen to correspond to rough equivalents in Western chess, rather than as translations of the Japanese names.

Each piece has its name in the form of two kanji written on its face. On the reverse side of some pieces are two other characters, often in a different color (commonly red instead of black); this reverse side is turned up to indicate that the piece has been promoted during play. The pieces of the two sides do not differ in color, but instead each piece is shaped like a wedge, and faces forward, toward the opposing side. This shows who controls the piece during play.

Table of pieces
Listed here are the pieces of the game with their Japanese representation:

English speakers sometimes refer to promoted bishops as horses and promoted rooks as dragons, after their Japanese names, and generally use the Japanese name tokin for promoted pawns. Silver generals and gold generals are commonly referred to simply as silvers and golds.

The characters inscribed on the backs of the pieces to indicate promoted rank may be in red ink, and are usually cursive. The characters on the backs of the pieces that promote to gold generals are cursive versions of 金 'gold', becoming more cursive (more abbreviated) as the value of the original piece decreases. These abbreviated characters have these equivalents in print: 全 for promoted silver, 今 for promoted knight, 仝 for promoted lance, and 个 for promoted pawn (tokin). Another convention has abbreviated versions of the original characters, with a reduced number of strokes: 圭 for promoted knight, 杏 for promoted lance, with promoted silver the same 全 as above, and と for tokin.

Setup
Each side places his pieces in the positions shown below, pointing toward the opponent.

 * In the rank nearest the player:
 * The king is placed in the center file.
 * The two gold generals are placed in the adjacent files to the king.
 * The two silver generals are placed adjacent to each gold general.
 * The two knights are placed adjacent to each silver general.
 * The two lances are placed in the corners, adjacent to each knight.

That is, the first rank is |L|N|S|G|K|G|S|N|L|.

 * In the second rank, each player places:
 * The bishop in the same file as the knight on the player's left.
 * The rook in the same file as the knight on the player's right.
 * The drunken elephant in the same file as the king.
 * In the third rank, the nine pawns are placed one in each file.

Game play
The players alternate making a move, with Black moving first. (The traditional chess terms 'black' and 'white' are used to differentiate the sides during discussion of the game in English, but are not literally descriptive. In Japanese, the side moving first is referred to as 先手 sente, and the second player is referred to as 後手 gote.) A move consists of moving a single piece on the board and potentially promoting that piece or displacing (capturing) an opposing piece. Each of these options is detailed below.

Movement and capture
An opposing piece is captured by displacement: That is, if a piece moves to a square occupied by an opposing piece, the opposing piece is displaced and removed from the board. A piece cannot move to a square occupied by a friendly piece (meaning another piece controlled by the moving player).

Each piece on the game moves in a characteristic pattern. Pieces move either orthogonally (that is, forward, backward, left, or right, in the direction of one of the arms of a plus sign, +), or diagonally (in the direction of one of the arms of a multiplication sign, ×). The knight is an exception in that it does not move in a straight line.

If a lance or pawn, pieces that cannot retreat or move aside, advances across the board until it can no longer move, it must promote.

Some pieces are capable of several kinds of movement, with the type of movement most often depending on the direction in which they move. The movement categories are:

Step movers
Some pieces move only one square at a time. (If a friendly piece occupies an adjacent square, the moving piece may not move in that direction; if an opposing piece is there, it may be displaced and captured.)

The step movers are the king, drunken elephant, gold general, silver general and the 9 pawns on each side.

Jumping piece
The knight can jump; that is, it can pass over any intervening piece, whether friend or foe, with no effect on either.

Ranging piece
The bishop and rook can move any number of empty squares along a straight line, limited only by the edge of the board. If an opposing piece intervenes, it may be captured by moving to that square and removing it from the board. A ranging piece must stop where it captures, and cannot bypass a piece that is in its way. If a friendly piece intervenes, the moving piece is limited to a distance that stops short of the intervening piece; if the friendly piece is adjacent, it cannot move in that direction at all.

Promotion
A player's promotion zone consists of the three farthest ranks, at the original line of the opponent's pawns and beyond (that is, the opponent's territory at setup). If a piece crosses the board within the promotion zone, including moves into, out of, or wholly within the zone, then that player may choose to promote the piece at the end of the turn. Promotion is effected by turning the piece over after it moves, revealing the name of its promoted rank.

Promoting a piece has the effect of changing how that piece moves until it is removed from the board. Each piece promotes as follows:

 * A king or a gold general cannot promote, nor can pieces which are already promoted.
 * A silver general, knight, lance or pawn, when promoted, loses its normal movement and gains the movement of a gold general.
 * A drunken elephant, bishop or rook, when promoted, keeps its normal movement and gains the ability to move one square in any direction (like a king). This means the bishop is now able to reach any square on the board, given enough moves.

If a pawn, knight or lance reaches the farthest rank, it must be promoted, since it would otherwise have no legal move on subsequent turns.

Individual pieces
Below are diagrams indicating each piece's movement. Pieces are paired with their promotion. Pieces with a grey heading start out in the game; those with a blue heading only appear on the board after promotion. Betza's funny notation has been included in brackets for easier reference.

Check and mate
When a player makes a move such that the opponent's king or crown prince could be captured on the following move, the move is said to give check to the king or crown prince; the king or crown prince is said to be in check. If a player's king or crown prince (sole one in play) is in check and no legal move by that player will get the king or crown prince out of check, the checking move is also mate, and can effectively win the game.

A player is not allowed to give perpetual check.

Game end
A player who captures the opponent's king and crown prince (if present) wins the game, as does a player who captures everything else, leaving a "bare" (or lone) king or crown prince. In practice this rarely happens, as a player will resign when checkmated, as otherwise when loss is inevitable.

A player who makes an illegal move loses immediately. (This rule may be relaxed in casual games.)

There is one other possible (but fairly uncommon) ways for a game to end: repetition (千日手 sennichite). If the same position occurs four times with the same player to play, then the game is no contest. (Recall, however, the prohibition against perpetual check.)

Game notation
The method used in English-language texts to express shogi moves was established by George Hodges in 1976. It is derived from the algebraic notation used for chess, but differs in several respects.

A typical example is P-8f. The first letter represents the piece moved: P = pawn, L = lance, N = knight, S = silver, G = gold, B = bishop, R = rook, DE = drunken elephant, K = king. Promoted pieces have a + added in front of the letter. e.g., +P for a tokin (promoted pawn). The designation of the piece is followed by a symbol indicating the type of move: - for an ordinary move and x for a capture. Next is the designation for the square on which the piece lands. This consists of a number representing the file and a lowercase letter representing the rank, with 1a being the top right corner (as seen from Black's point of view) and 9i being the bottom left corner. (This method of designating squares is based on Japanese convention, which, however, uses Japanese numerals instead of letters. For example, the square 2c is denoted by 2三 in Japanese.)

If a move entitles the player to promote the piece, then a + is added to the end to signify that the promotion was taken, or an = to indicate that it was declined. For example, Nx7c= indicates a knight capturing on 7c without promoting.

In cases where the above notation would be ambiguous, the designation of the start square is added after the designation for the piece in order to make clear which piece is meant.

Moves are commonly numbered as in chess. For example, the start of a game might look like this: 1. P-7f  P-3d 2. P-2f  G-3b 3. P-2e  Bx8h+ 4. Sx8h  S-2b

Niagara Falls station (Ontario)

Niagara Falls station is a railway station in Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada. It is served by the Maple Leaf train between Toronto and New York City and is the terminus of GO Transit's Lakeshore West line towards Toronto. The Gothic Revival station building, which was built in 1879 by the Great Western Railway, is a designated heritage railway station. It is also listed on the Canadian Register of Historic Places.

History
The Victorian Gothic Revival style station was built as the terminus for Great Western Railway (1879–1882) and Grand Trunk Railway (1882–1923). During the period, it was the busiest and the grandest station owned by the railway. The station was renovated in 1951, and the east wing, once housing a restaurant, was partially demolished in 1967. It was acquired by CN Rail for passenger service from 1923 until the 1970s, since when it has been used by Via Rail Canada and more recently by GO Transit since 2009.

In 2012, as a result of federal funding cuts Via Rail Corridor trips between Toronto and Niagara Falls were discontinued, leaving only the single daily Via/Amtrak Maple Leaf service between Toronto and New York. In October 2012, the ticket agent was eliminated, replaced by an automated kiosk.

GO Transit operated summer 'excursion' trains to Niagara Falls on weekends and holidays in 2009 and 2010, making them permanently recurring in 2011. Starting in January 2019, it also began operating a single weekday train trip to and from Niagara Falls. In September 2019, the formerly summer-only weekend train service was extended year-round.

GO Transit was expected to expand full-time rail service along the Niagara Branch to Niagara Falls by 2023 and with it upgrades to the station.

Services
On weekdays, the station is served by three daily round trips on the GO Transit Lakeshore West line, departing toward Toronto in the morning, afternoon and evening. On weekends the station is served by three daily trains in each direction, departing toward Toronto in the afternoon and evening. At all times, GO Transit bus route 12 operates hourly to Burlington GO Station, where it connects to regular train service to Toronto.

Amtrak and Via Rail Canada jointly operate the Maple Leaf train service between Toronto and New York City. The service uses Amtrak rolling stock, but ticketing is shared, and Via crew operates the train along all Canadian stops until it reaches the station where Amtrak crew takes over the operation. The station was served once daily in each direction until March 2020, when Maple Leaf service within Canada was suspended indefinitely as part of a closure of the Canada–United States border to non-essential travel in response to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic. Trains from New York City were truncated to Niagara Falls, New York. Full service between New York City and Toronto resumed on July 27, 2022.

Customs
There are no US preclearance facilities at the station for the Maple Leaf train since both it and its sister station in Niagara Falls, New York, are located along the Canada-US border. Therefore, passengers arriving from the US will be inspected by Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) officers at the station. Passengers leaving for the US will be processed by Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officers at the Niagara Falls, New York, station on the other side of the Whirlpool Rapids Bridge.

In January 2020, US Senator Chuck Schumer of New York urged the CBSA to open a preclearance facility in the newer Niagara Falls, New York station as one of Canada’s first preclearance operations to improve what he described as an "unpleasant" Canadian inspection experience in the current open-air and uncovered location. In response, the CBSA said it would not commit to a timeline to open any preclearance facilities in the US.

Niagara Falls Transit Terminal
The Niagara Falls Transit Terminal is located directly across Bridge Street from the railway station and serves as the main local, regional and intercity bus terminal for the area. Unlike the train station, the transit terminal is owned and operated by the city of Niagara Falls, Ontario.

Unnatural Acts (radio series)

Unnatural Acts was a BBC radio comedy series written by, and starring, Jeremy Hardy and Kit Hollerbach (who, at the time, were married) as "The Hardys" with Paul B Davies and Caroline Leddy as "Paul and Caroline". Two series were made in 1987 and 1988, with the third renamed At Home With The Hardys and broadcast in 1990. Further script input was from Pete Sinclair. The show was played as a straight sitcom but with considerable surreal elements. Much humour was had from Hollerbach's exaggeratedly American reactions to English life.

The title of the third series may have been a play on the 1950s BBC radio series Life With The Lyons, which also starred a real married couple as themselves.

It was produced and directed by David Tyler.

Reuben Baetz

Reuben Conrad Baetz (May 9, 1923 – October 28, 1996) was a Canadian politician. He served in the Legislative Assembly of Ontario from 1977 to 1987, and was a cabinet minister in the governments of Bill Davis and Frank Miller. Baetz was a member of the Progressive Conservative Party.

Background
Baetz was born in Chesley, Ontario. His father was a Lutheran minister, and Baetz remained a Lutheran throughout his life. He was educated at Wilfrid Laurier University (then Waterloo Lutheran Seminary, affiliated with the University of Western Ontario), Columbia University in New York, and the University of Toronto. He became a social worker and assisted in the reconstruction of Germany and Hungary after World War II. Before entering provincial politics, he was a member of the Ontario Economic Council, the Canada Manpower and Immigration Council and the Canadian Association of Social Workers. He led the Canadian Council of Social Development from 1963 to 1977.

Politics
He was elected to the Ontario legislature in the 1977 provincial election, defeating Liberal Bill Roberts by 5,373 votes in Ottawa West. He entered Bill Davis's cabinet on January 21, 1978 as Minister of Energy, and was named Minister of Culture and Recreation on August 18, 1978.

Baetz was easily re-elected in the 1981 election, and was named as Minister of Tourism and Recreation on February 13, 1982. He supported Roy McMurtry to succeed Davis as party leader in January 1985. When Frank Miller replaced Davis a premier of Ontario on February 8, 1985, he named Baetz as Provincial Secretary for Justice. He was again re-elected in the 1985 election, defeating Liberal candidate Alex Cullen by 2,948 votes.

At the provincial level, Miller's Conservatives were reduced to a fragile minority government in the 1985 election. Baetz was appointed as Minister of Intergovernmental Affairs on May 17, 1985, but accomplished little in this portfolio before the Conservatives were defeated in the house in June 1985. In opposition, he served as his party's critic for Intergovernmental Affairs, Child Care and Social Policy. He did not seek re-election in 1987.

Later life
Baetz died on October 28, 1996. The Ontario legislative paid tribute to Baetz on November 4, 1996. The members who spoke remembered him as having a dignified, gentlemanly presence in the assembly.

Welcome
Hey there, . Welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you enjoy being a Wikipedian and decide to stay! Here are a few good links for newcomers (or "oldcomers" for reference):

By the way, you should sign and date your comments on talk and vote pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~. Three tildes (~~~) produces just your name. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome!

Great, just what we need around this place... more 777 people. :) Cheers. --Lord Voldemort (Dark Mark) 20:44, 2 September 2005 (UTC)

Fellow Salopian!
Hello there fellow Salopian! Thank you for creating various articles about local stuff. Can I ask that you add in future the Shropshire category thing at the bottom of each page you create (well, the ones that are about Shropshire)? To do so, put Category:Shropshire in between the internal link boxes (aka a wikilink) at the bottom of the page's editing text. It just helps pool all the hundreds of articles about Shropshire together!

Keep up the good work! David 17:01, 5 September 2005 (UTC)

Battlefield
I usually reply in the other person's talk page as that way they will get a message saying that they have a new message (if you get what I mean). I don't think there is a rule.

See the Battlefield, Shropshire page and link in the Battlefield Enterprise Park article in from there. Try to create two individual articles for the village and the enterprise park.

You will find that Shropshire already has a huge number of articles - have a browse around the Shropshire categories (there are many more, branching off from the main category).

Non-free and unsourced images
Hi there. I've just looked through the images that you've uploaded, and many of them seem to have been uploaded under a mistaken understanding of the Image use policy. Please, review that policy. Also, keep in mind that FreeFoto is a minefield for Wikipedia. The images there are not public domain, they are released under a non-commercial use only license, which Wikipedia cannot take advantage of because down-stream users of Wikipedia images are commercial.

Thank you for contributing, and I hope that you continue to do so, as you become more familiar with the policies of the site! -Harmil 15:37, 6 September 2005 (UTC)

 * First off, I want to be clear here. I haven't requested deletion of any images you've uploaded with one exception, and that one was just a duplicate. I've added the nosource tag, but that gives you plenty of time to decide what to do. I would suggest one of the following actions:
 * Remove the images from the articles that link to them and provide external links (i.e. in the External links section) to the site that hosts the images.
 * Or, you could take picutures to replace the images, upload them and change any articles to point to your new images (try to avoid uploading under the same name).
 * Or, you could seek out the original authors and request permission for the images to be used under a license like the CC-BY-SA-2.5 or the GFDL.
 * I'm just going through tons of images (yours included) and sorting out the licensing status. I'm not making any judgements about you or your contributions beyond that technical detail. I know that it's frustrating to not be able to just use images that are out there on the Web, but Wikipedia needs to be able to offer its images to users of the Wikipedia site and its down-stream sites without fear of legal action.
 * Thank you again, and happy editing! -Harmil 15:51, 6 September 2005 (UTC)

Shuts and passages
Hi there - not Wikipedia related, but very much Shrewsbury related! Have a read of the following article about the new move by the County Council to add 20 of the shuts and passages in the town centre to the rights of way map.

It's an important moment in getting many of the town's shuts and passages the protection they deserve. Would be most excellent if you could chip in with a letter of support or so. David (talk) 21:12, 1 July 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Image:Central trains logo.gif
A tag has been placed on Image:Central trains logo.gif requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section I8 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is available as a bit-for-bit identical copy on the Wikimedia Commons under the same name, or all references to the image on Wikipedia have been updated to point to the title used at Commons.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on  explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. --Th e DJ (talk • contribs) 15:00, 9 July 2008 (UTC)

Shrewsbury
Seeing that you are one of the major contributors, this is a quick note to let you know that I have done some additions, mainly in terms of photos. In particular for your interests, I have added a paragraph about the Railway Station for its architectural interest. I think it can be described as mock Tudor but I am not well enough qualified in architecture to post such a claim on Wikipedia. You may like to copy that to your article on Shrewsbury railway station, but please leave it on the Shrewsbury article since it is of interest there. (I have found on someone's talk page a device for adding a new topic without clumsy edit of the whole Talk Page - feel free to copy it from my Talk Page.)
