Joe Trohman

Joseph Mark Trohman (born September 1, 1984) is an American musician. He is best known as the lead guitarist and backing vocalist of the American rock band Fall Out Boy, as well as the lead guitarist for heavy metal supergroup the Damned Things. Fall Out Boy began in 2001 as Trohman and Pete Wentz's side project from the hardcore punk scene they were involved with, and the band has scored four number one albums on the US Billboard 200, as well as numerous platinum and multi platinum singles in the US and abroad.

After a five-year hiatus, Fall Out Boy announced a comeback with a new album, tour, and single in February 2013. Since then, the band has released four full-length albums, along with two EPs, a remix album, and a second greatest-hits compilation.

Early life
The son of a cardiologist, Trohman was born in Hollywood, Florida. He was raised in South Russell, Ohio, before his family moved to the Chicago area. His family is Jewish, although he noted to JVibe, "I think we were more Jewish culturally than we were religiously because after my brother's bar mitzvah, we stopped going to synagogue entirely." Trohman attended New Trier High School in Winnetka, Illinois, and played bass with fellow Fall Out Boy band member Pete Wentz in a band called Arma Angelus.

Musical career
Trohman became involved with the Chicago hardcore punk scene, with his first band being Voices Still Heard he formed with friends. At the age of fifteen he taught himself how to play guitar, and at age sixteen, he joined local band Arma Angelus and spent a summer touring as the group's bassist. He developed a friendship with the group's singer, Pete Wentz, and the pair discussed forming a more melodic band influenced by groups such as Green Day. Trohman then met Patrick Stump in a Borders bookstore, and recruited him to join the band, which was subsequently named Fall Out Boy.

With bassist Pete Wentz as Fall Out Boy's primary lyricist and vocalist Patrick Stump as the primary composer, Fall Out Boy reached mainstream success with its major label debut, From Under the Cork Tree. Released in 2005 by Island Records, the album debuted on the US Billboard 200 at No. 9, won several awards and achieved triple platinum status after selling more than 3.5 million albums in the United States. The album spawned two top 10 hits; "Sugar, We're Goin Down" which reached No. 8 on the Billboard Hot 100 and has sold more than 4.5 million copies in the US as of 2019, as well as "Dance, Dance" which peaked at No. 9 and certified triple platinum. To support the album, the band headlined tours around the world in 2005 and 2006.

In 2007, the band released the follow-up album Infinity on High, to major chart success, debuting No. 1 on the Billboard 200 with first week sales of 260,000. The album was certified platinum one month after its release. Infinity on High's lead single, "This Ain't a Scene, It's an Arms Race", reached No. 1 on the defunct-Pop 100, No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100, and later certified platinum. The second single, "Thnks fr th Mmrs", sold more than 2 million copies in the US.

In 2008, the band released their fifth studio album, Folie à Deux which debuted at No. 8 on the Billboard 200 with 150,000 first week sales and was later certified gold. The band opened for Blink-182's 2009 reunion tour and shortly released their first greatest hits compilation album, Believers Never Die - Greatest Hits in November 2009 before announcing an indefinite hiatus. Patrick Stump embarked on a solo career and Pete Wentz created the DJ duo Black Cards. Trohman and his Fall Out Boy bandmate Andy Hurley started a new band, the Damned Things, with Anthrax members Scott Ian and Rob Caggiano and Every Time I Die vocalist Keith Buckley and bassist Josh Newton. They released their debut album in 2010, Ironiclast. Afterwards, Trohman began work on a new band with Newton and Rob Smith, With Knives, releasing their debut EP, Schadenfreude on April 17, 2012.

On February 4, 2013, Fall Out Boy unexpectedly announced their return with their first single in three years, My Songs Know What You Did in the Dark (Light Em Up), the announcement of a new album, Save Rock and Roll, and dates for a new headlining tour. April 12 of the same year brought the release of Save Rock And Roll. The band played their first show in over three years on the night of February 4 in Chicago. Save Rock and Roll peaked at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, selling 154,000 copies in its first week, and becoming the band's 4th consecutive top 10 album. The band toured heavily throughout 2013 and 2014 on the album, selling out arenas worldwide with bands like Paramore and Panic! at the Disco. In October 2013, they released an EP titled PAX AM Days, which was an homage to the classic punk music the band grew up on. The entire EP was recorded in two days with producer Ryan Adams at the PAX AM Studios in Los Angeles.

Their sixth album American Beauty/American Psycho was released in January 2015, preceded by the Four-Times-Platinum top 10 single Centuries. The album's second single, Uma Thurman, was released to mainstream radio on April 14, 2015, and peaked at 22 on the Billboard Hot 100, and was certified Double-Platinum. The third single from American Beauty/American Psycho, Irresistible, also landed on the Billboard Hot 100 and peaked at number 48, while also later being certified platinum in the US. On October 14, 2014, Immortals was released as a single, later to be featured on the Disney movie it was written for, Big Hero 6. The song went on to be added as the tenth track on American Beauty/American Psycho. On October 30, 2015, Fall Out Boy released an album of remixes titled Make America Psycho Again, featuring artists such as Wiz Khalifa, Azealia Banks, and Migos.

In April 2017, Fall Out Boy released Young and Menace, the lead single for their seventh studio album, Mania. The original release date for Mania was set in September 2017, but was pushed back in August of that same year due to the fact that, according to a tweet from lead singer Patrick Stump, "The album just really [wasn't] ready, and it felt very rushed". Mania was officially released on January 19, 2018, and debuted at number one on the Billboard 200, making it the band's third consecutive number one album, and fourth chart-topping debut overall. Despite the fact that the album had not yet been released, the band embarked on the Mania Tour in the fall of 2017, a worldwide tour spanning the end of 2017 and into fall of 2018. This tour included a date at Wrigley Field in the band's hometown of Chicago, marking a milestone in their career as their first headline show at a stadium.

In 2017, Trohman guest starred, with his bandmates, in Cartoon Network's Teen Titans Go! playing himself in the first, third and fourth parts of "The Night Begins to Shine". Their cover of the title song from the special was commercially released.

On August 23, 2018, Fall Out Boy surprise-released their third EP, Lake Effect Kid, which the band describes as their "love letter" to their hometown of Chicago. A demo version of the title track was previously featured on the band's 2008 mixtape Welcome to the New Administration.

In April 2019, the Damned Things released their second album, High Crimes, almost nine years after the release of their debut album, Ironiclast.

On September 10, 2019, Fall Out Boy released Dear Future Self (Hands Up) as a single off of their second greatest hits album, Greatest Hits: Believers Never Die – Volume Two, released on November 15, 2019. The same day, the band announced their co-headlining tour with Green Day and Weezer, The Hella Mega Tour, scheduled to begin in spring of 2020. Due to the Covid-19 Pandemic, all North American dates were rescheduled to the summer of 2021, European dates were rescheduled to the summer of 2022, and Asian and Oceania dates were cancelled.

On January 18, 2023, the same day as the announcement of Fall Out Boy's eighth album, So Much (for) Stardust, Trohman announced on social media that he would be taking a break from the band to focus on his mental health. He returned to the band in May 2023.

Equipment
Trohman collects guitars, and has his own Signature guitar made by Squier Guitars by Fender, the Joe Trohman Telecaster. He currently plays Fender Telecasters, and Fender Stratocaster in studio or live. He had previously used Washburn guitars and a Gibson SG.

Personal life
Trohman is married to Marie Trohman and the couple have two daughters together, Ruby and Zayda Mae.

Trohman's house in Chicago was featured in a 2007 episode of MTV Cribs.

Trohman created an animated series in 2020 called Mondo Trasho 3042 on YouTube. The ten-episode series is about a fictional band in the titular year of 3042. The show's intro explains '“We’re Mondo Trasho. We’re a band. We should break up.”

Trohman has always been open about his struggles with his mental health, specifically how he has dealt with his depression, OCD, and Impostor syndrome throughout his life. On March 10, 2021, Trohman announced his podcast I Hate Myself, in partnership with Heavy Metal Magazine and Seth Green. The first episode aired a week later, on March 17, 2021. Each episode of the podcast features a guest who joins Trohman and Green to speak about their mental health. I Hate Myself currently has one season with six episodes, although Trohman and Green have hinted at the possibility of airing new episodes eventually. Notable guests on I Hate Myself include Emma Chamberlain, George C. Romero, and Ryan Simpkins.

In March 2022, the first issue of The Axe, a comic written by Trohman and Brian Posehn and illustrated by Scott Koblish, was released in Heavy Metal Magazine. The Axe is a horror-comedy story about three teenagers who steal a cursed guitar, opening up a portal to Sheol, an alternate dimension.

Trohman's memoir, None of This Rocks, was released on September 13, 2022. Trohman embarked on a 4-stop book tour supporting None of This Rocks beginning September 13, 2022, in Brooklyn, New York, and ending on September 20, 2022, in Los Angeles, California.

In November 2023, the first issue of Holy Roller, a comic written by Trohman, Rick Remender, Andy Samberg and illustrated by Roland Boschi, was released and published by Image Comics. Holy Roller about a pro bowler who is forced to quit his dream job and return to his hometown, which he soon discovers has been overrun by Neo-Nazis, leading him to become a trick bowling ball-wielding Jewish superhero.

Detroit City Council
Is there a reason on the city council chart near the bottom of the page you didn't order the new districts from 1-7 (plus the two at-large seats)? At first, I thought maybe you were doing it alphabetically, but you didn't even do it that way. What's the reasoning behind putting Cushingberry first, for instance? I'm not sure I'm understanding how this was organized. --Criticalthinker (talk) 11:51, 12 June 2015 (UTC)

Several of the existing council members were reelected and I kept those in the columns which they were previously. I can go back and see if realigning prior term information so it flows by district is possible. --Stephen "Fuzzytek" Boyle (talk) 12:21, 12 June 2015 (UTC)

Talk:Cleavage (breasts)

Only men like cleavage?
"In many cultures, though not all, men typically derive erotic pleasure from the visible display of cleavage." I don't know from personal experience (being a cis male) but I hear that lesbians and bi women also find cleavage attractive. One must also consider nonbinary people. IAmNitpicking (talk) 02:24, 9 October 2021 (UTC)
 * The article doesn't imply otherwise, but the size of the male population is much, much larger than those other groups, so that will have much more social consequences and it makes sense to focus on that. We also have to stick to what the sources say and emphasize matters in the way they do. Crossroads -talk- 03:50, 9 October 2021 (UTC)

This is another feminist derived article that likes to put men down for being men, I wish this would stop. ZL3XD (talk) 10:31, 19 August 2022 (UTC)

Splitting proposal
In February 2021 an editor proposed that the section Cleavage (breasts) be split into a separate page called Cleavage enhancement. The discussion appears to have been archived at Talk:Cleavage (breasts)/Archive 2 without reaching consensus. However, the split notice remains in the article. I propose that we remove it. Polly Tunnel (talk) 12:17, 16 March 2022 (UTC)

✅ as no objections raised. Polly Tunnel (talk) 14:10, 6 April 2022 (UTC)

who's titties are these?
the headless photo at the top of the page is uncredited beyond that it is from flickr and without copyright. it is possible that the model might not want to have her titties on top of the Wikipedia page for cleavage. There is also a bit of an element of antisemitisim to the framing of this, as the picture is of her holding a text in hebrew, and farther down the page, there is a picture of a Muslim woman playing chess who is allowed both her modesty, and her identity.

Would it be possible for somebody to draw something? (perhaps a diagram, indicating what, exactly, is the cleavage) I realize this is a contentious topic. 38.103.136.34 (talk) 23:05, 20 April 2023 (UTC)

 * I'm not sure what they actual issue is here. If a model isn't identifiable without credit then it stands to reason she wouldn't object as doing so she would have to identify herself going against the reason for her objection.
 * I also don't know where the antisemitism comes from. I can't even make out the text let alone that it is Hebrew but maybe it just looks Hebrew because it is so garbled and out of focus. But assuming this is true there is an assumption that women want their modesty preserved when this is more a cultural prescript. In many countries that aren't Islamic you'll find a lot of Muslim women that don't follow these prescripts as well as Jewish women today blend in with the surrounding cultures and I've found a lot of them that will even be pictured naked so if they don't preserve their own modesty I can't see how the connection is made that it's antisemitic.

Kapit

Kapit is a town and the capital of Kapit District in Kapit Division, Sarawak, Malaysia on the south bank of the Rajang River. The district comprises 15,595.6 square kilometres and as of 2020, it has a population of 65,800.

Kapit is accessible by boat (slightly more than 2 hours from Sibu by express boat), light aircraft, and most recently by road. Reaching Kapit by car and bus from Sibu takes about 1 hour 30 minutes or about 1 hour from Song. It is the vibrant commercial and social center for the middle Rajang River catering to the longhouse communities and timber camps. It is an excellent base for exploring nearby longhouses or for arranging trips to the Upper Rejang and Balleh Rivers.

History
During the reign of Rajah Charles Brooke, a "Fort Kapit" was built in Kapit in 1880 to prevent the Iban from migrating up-river and attacking Orang Ulu settlements. With the security provided by the fort, the area surrounding the fort was settled by Hoklo (Hokkien) Chinese in 1880, additional Hakka Chinese immigrants arrived in 1906, and Fuzhou Chinese in 1919. The Hokkiens worked as labourers while the Hakkas worked as farmers before venturing into businesses. Hock Leong Tieng Temple was built by the Chinese in 1889. Tai San Ten Association was formed in 1935 to serve the interests of Hokkiens and Hakkas. In 1924, a peace treaty was signed between the Iban and the Orang Ulu people at Fort Kapit, thus ending the hostilities between the two tribes permanently. In 1925, "Fort Kapit" was renamed as Fort Sylvia, after the wife of Rajah Vyner Brooke, Rani Sylvia Brooke. The fort had withstood floods in 1887, 1934, 1961 and 1983. On 28 January 1934, Kapit experienced the most severe flood in history with water level as high as 162 ft.

In 1941, at the time of the Japanese occupation, Kapit only had two rows of 37 shophouses. The town was completely destroyed by allied bombing during the war.

On 15 February 1962, 51 elected Iban chiefs had a meeting in Kapit to discuss the terms and proposals of the formation of federation of Malaysia, before the Cobbold Commission came to Kapit to assess the people's sentiment there. The meeting produced 13 resolutions that agreed to the formation of Malaysia as long as the resolutions were fulfilled.

Kapit was upgraded into a division on 2 April 1973.

Government
Built in 1880, Fort Sylvia once housed the Kapit district office and a magistrate court. After 1973, it housed the Kapit Divisional Office.

Geography
Kapit is located 140 km upriver from Sibu along the Rajang River.

Climate
Kapit has a tropical rainforest climate (Af) with heavy to very heavy rainfall year-round.

Demographics
Immaculate Conception Church was first established in Kapit in 1882. The church celebrated its 130th anniversary in 2012. Kapit is home to many races like Iban, Chinese, Malay, Bidayuh, Kenyah, Kayan, and Melanau. People in Kapit may be Christian, Muslim, Buddhist, or other religions.

Transport
Kapit is reachable by express boats from Sibu plying the Rajang river. Kapit is also reachable through one hour ride by express boats from Song. Kapit river transport is served by the Kapit express boat terminal. As car transportation has been open to public, express boats became a risk to operate, as customer no longer opt express boats as their main transportation, which could see the demise of local express boat industry in the future.

As of October 2020, Sibu-Kapit road has been open to public, although it is not complete yet. It is accessible by car and takes around 1 hour and 30 minutes to reach there. As road need further refinement for completion, the road is subject to daily opening schedule, which is three times a day. Its opening times are 6.00–7.30 am, 12.00–1.30 pm and 5.00–9.00 pm. It is scheduled to fully operate by 1 December 2020, but due to frequent road travel usage by local, the road completion experienced delay, also factoring the safety of road environment by the working contractor.

As of December 2021, the road finally completed, with the full completion of Yong River Twin Bridge No.1 and No.2. Express bus shuttle service to and fro Sibu and Kapit available less than a month, on New Year 2022, after the road completion.

While the main road, connecting Sibu and Kapit, has completed, the main problem due to lack of available alternative road previously not faced in Kapit is congestion in peak hours, making it harder for motorists to have a smooth and consistent journey. In anticipation of such cases, federal government announced an alternative road would be built at some point, although as of April 2022, there's still no word regarding the project.

Alphabet Order
According to me,

Uttarakhand

Uttar Pradesh

Both these states should be in this order. Not in the order of the list.

PROOF

'Uttar' is common in both but then there is 'a' in uttarakhand and 'p' in uttar pradesh. So UTTARAKHAND should be first.

SinDizzy

SinDizzy was a Christian metal band co-founded by former Stryper members Oz Fox and Tim Gaines. The band was founded in the mid-1990s after Stryper had disbanded. Its members included young drummer John Bocanegra and lead guitarist Bobby MacNeil. Bass player Tim Gaines described their sound as "a cross between [the] Stone Temple Pilots and Nirvana".

History
SinDizzy released their debut self-produced album, He's Not Dead, in 1998. The album sold well among the Christian metal fans, especially Stryper fans. However, it did not gather any mainstream success. The band played in several festivals in the United States. Notorious among these was a summer rock festival in Puerto Rico, where former frontman of Stryper, Michael Sweet, joined Sin Dizzy on stage in front of 11,000 and performed several Stryper hit songs.

Bassist Tim Gaines left the band in 2000 to continue working with his wife's musical career. Kevin Walt immediately replaced Gaines as SinDizzy's bass player. Plans for the recording of a future album were put on hold following the reunion of Stryper in 2003.

On November 28, 2008, SinDizzy re-released He's Not Dead (All Night Long) on Girder Records with all new artwork, liner notes and more, although the release was never authorized by Tim Gaines, who holds the rights to the SinDizzy name.

Guitarist Bobby MacNeil died in early 2013.

Eyes Without a Face (film)

Eyes Without a Face (Les Yeux sans visage) is a 1960 French-language horror film directed by Georges Franju. The film stars Pierre Brasseur and Alida Valli. Based on the novel of the same name by Jean Redon, it revolves around a plastic surgeon who is determined to perform a face transplant on his daughter, who was disfigured in a car accident. During the film's production, consideration was given to the standards of European censors by minimizing gore. Although Eyes Without a Face was cleared by censors, its release in Europe caused controversy. Critical reaction ranged from praise to disgust.

In the United States, an edited and dubbed version of the film, titled The Horror Chamber of Dr. Faustus, was released by Lopert Pictures in 1962 as a double feature with The Manster. The film's initial critical reception was not overtly positive, but subsequent theatrical and home video re-releases improved its reputation. Modern critics praise Eyes Without a Face for its poetic nature as well as for being an influence on other filmmakers.

Plot
Outside Paris, a woman dumps a corpse in the river. The body is identified by Dr. Génessier as his daughter Christiane, who was reported missing after an automobile accident disfigured her face.

In reality, Christiane still lives in Dr. Génessier's mansion next to his private clinic, guarded by German Shepherds and other large dogs. The body (which was disposed of by his assistant Louise) belongs to a young woman whose face skin Dr. Génessier removed and unsuccessfully attempted to graft onto his daughter.

After her father leaves with promises to restore her face, Christiane, wearing a mask to cover her disfigurement, calls her fiancé Jacques Vernon, Dr. Génessier's assistant, but hangs up without saying a word.

Génessier's next victim was Edna Grüber. He and Louise carry a sedated Edna to the lab to prepare her for surgery, secretly watched by Christiane. Later, he removes Edna's face skin and successfully grafts it onto Christiane's face. The heavily bandaged and faceless Edna attempts to escape but falls to her death from an upstairs window. After disposing of Edna's corpse, Génessier notices the new tissue is rejected within days and Christiane has to wear the mask again. She phones Jacques and says his name, but Louise interrupts the call.

Jacques informs the police, who have been investigating the disappearance of young women with similar facial characteristics. Jacques realizes one of the girls looks like Louise. Inspector Parot instructs Paulette Mérodon (recently arrested for shoplifting) to check herself into Génessier's clinic. Soon after, Paulette is picked up by Louise and delivered to Dr. Génessier. Before he begins surgery on Paulette, the police arrive.

While the doctor talks with the police, Christiane, disenchanted with her father's immoral experiments, while slowly losing her mind from guilt and isolation, decides to act. She frees Paulette and murders Louise by stabbing her in the neck. She also frees the dogs and doves that her father uses for experiments. Dr. Génessier dismisses the police (who readily accept his explanations) and returns to his lab. There, a newly acquired German Shepherd attacks him, inciting the other dogs to follow suit, mauling him to death. Christiane, unmoved by his death, strolls out into the woods outside with a dove in her hands.

Cast

 * Pierre Brasseur as Doctor Génessier, a physician and father of Christiane. Génessier experiments on his pet dogs and performs heterograft surgeries on women to try and restore the face of his daughter Christiane. Brasseur previously worked with director Georges Franju in the drama, La Tête contre les murs (1958), again in a leading role playing a doctor.
 * Alida Valli as Louise, a woman who is Génessier's assistant, kidnaps young women, assists him in the laboratory and acts as a surrogate mother to Christiane. Louise aids Génessier partly because of his help in restoring her damaged face in events that happened before the events of the film.
 * Juliette Mayniel as Edna Grüber, a young woman who becomes a victim of Doctor Génessier's experiments after being befriended by Louise in Paris. Edna is the first woman whose face is successfully transplanted to Christiane. While recovering from the surgery, she attacks Louise and then leaps from a window at Génessier's home and dies.
 * Alexandre Rignault as Inspector Parot, a police inspector investigating the disappearances of Génessier's victims. Parot ultimately discovers that all of the missing girls have similar features.
 * Béatrice Altariba as Paulette Mérodon, a young woman who is taken into police custody after being caught shoplifting. Due to a resemblance with the women Génessier has kidnapped, she is informed by Parot that the charges against her will be dropped if she checks into Génessier's clinic. She is subsequently released and kidnapped to have her face transplanted, but is saved by Christiane before Génessier is able to perform surgery on her.
 * François Guérin as Jacques Vernon, a student of Génessier and Christiane's fiancé. Jacques is unaware of Doctor Génessier's criminal activity and believes Christiane is dead. After receiving a phone call from Christiane, he helps the police in investigating the crime.
 * Édith Scob as Christiane Génessier, Doctor Génessier's daughter. Christiane's face was damaged in a car accident caused by her father. For most of the film, her face is covered by a stiff mask that resembles her face before the accident. Like Brasseur, Scob was also cast by Franju in La Tête Contre les Murs, but in a minor role. Scob later worked with Franju on four other films.

Production
At the time, modern horror films had not been attempted by French film makers until producer Jules Borkon decided to tap into the horror market. Borkon bought the rights to the Redon novel and offered the directorial role to one of the founders of Cinémathèque Française, Franju, who was directing his first non-documentary feature La Tête contre les murs (1958). Franju had grown up during the French silent-film era when filmmakers such as Georges Méliès and Louis Feuillade were making fantastique-themed films, and he relished the opportunity to contribute to the genre. Franju felt the story was not a horror film; rather, he described his vision of the film as one of "anguish... it's a quieter mood than horror... more internal, more penetrating. It's horror in homeopathic doses."

To avoid problems with European censors, Borkon cautioned Franju not to include too much blood (which would upset French censors), refrain from showing animals getting tortured (which would upset English censors) and leave out mad-scientist characters (which would upset German censors). All three of these were part of the novel, presenting a challenge to find the right tone for presenting these story elements in the film. First, working with Claude Sautet who was also serving as first assistant director and who laid out the preliminary screenplay, Franju hired the writing team of Boileau-Narcejac (Pierre Boileau and Thomas Narcejac) who had written novels adapted as Henri-Georges Clouzot's Les Diaboliques (1955) and Alfred Hitchcock's Vertigo (1958). The writers shifted the novel's focus from Doctor Génessier's character to that of his daughter, Christiane; this shift revealed the doctor's character in a more positive and understandable light and helped to avoid the censorship restrictions.

For his production staff, Franju enlisted people with whom he had previously worked on earlier projects. Cinematographer Eugen Schüfftan, best remembered for developing the Schüfftan process, was chosen to render the visuals of the film. Schüfftan had worked with Franju on La Tête Contre les Murs (1958). Film historian David Kalat called Shüfftan "the ideal choice to illustrate Franju's nightmares". French composer Maurice Jarre created the haunting score for the film. Jarre had also previously worked with Franju on his film La Tête Contre les Murs (1958). Modern critics have observed the film's two imposing musical themes, a jaunty carnival-esque waltz (featured while Louise picks up young women for Doctor Génessier) and a lighter, sadder piece for Christiane.

Soundtrack
In February 2005, the French soundtrack record label Play Time released the soundtrack on compact disc along with other soundtracks performed by Jarre. This also includes soundtracks from other Franju films including La Tête contre les Murs and Thérèse Desqueyroux.

Release

Eyes Without a Face completed filming in 1959, and was premiered in Paris on 2 March 1960. Although it passed through the European censors, the film caused controversy on its release in Europe. The French news magazine L'Express commented that the audience "dropped like flies" during the heterografting scene. During the film's showing at the 1960 Edinburgh Film Festival, seven audience members fainted, to which director Franju responded, "Now I know why Scotsmen wear skirts."

American version
For the American release in 1962, the film was edited, dubbed into English, and re-titled The Horror Chamber of Dr. Faustus; distributor Lopert Pictures, a division of United Artists that specialized in arthouse and foreign releases, released the film on a double bill with The Manster (1959). Edits in the Dr. Faustus version removed parts of the heterografting scene as well as scenes showing Doctor Génessier's more human side, such as his loving care for a small child at his clinic. Lopert Pictures recognized the artistic merit of the film, and played up that element in promotion with an advertisement quoting the London Observer's positive statements about the film and mentioned its showing at the Edinburgh Film Festival. This was in contrast to their presentation of The Manster, which mainly focused on its carny show qualities with its "two-headed monster" and "Invasion from outer space by two-headed creature killer". Eyes Without a Face had a very limited initial run and there was little commentary from the American mainstream press.

Reception
On the film's initial release, the French critics' general response was moderate, ranging from mild enthusiasm to general disdain or disappointment, claiming it to be either a repetition of German expressionism or simply a disappointment of the director's leap from documentary filmmaker to a genre film-maker claiming the film to be in a "minor genre, quite unworthy of his abilities". Franju responded to these comments claiming the film was his attempt to get the minor genre to be taken seriously. In England, Isabel Quigly, film critic for The Spectator, called it "the sickest film since I started film criticism", while a reviewer who admitted that she liked the film was nearly fired. A review in Variety was negative, noting specifically that the "stilted acting, asides to explain characters and motivations, and a repetition of effects lose the initial impact" and an "unclear progression and plodding direction give [the film] an old-fashioned air". The English Monthly Film Bulletin was of the opinion that "when a director as distinguished as Georges Franju makes a horror film...one cannot but feel tempted to search for symbols, an allegory, layers, or interpretation. Unhappily there is practically nothing in this inept work to offer any encouragement for doing so." The review said there was "a strange and poetic opening" and Schuftan's "haunting camerawork allies itself perfectly to Maurice Jarre's obsessive score" while" Brasseur and Valli were "sadly wasted" and that they "do what they can with almost non-existent characters".

Eyes Without a Face received a theatrical re-release in September 1986 in conjunction with retrospectives at the National Film Theatre in London and at the Cinémathèque Française for the film archive's 50th anniversary in France. As Franju was the archive's co-founder, the Cinémathèque Française celebrated by presenting the director's back catalogue. With the renewed interest, the film's critical reputation began to be re-evaluated. French critics' response to the film was significantly more positive than it was on its original release, with former editor-in-chief of Cahiers du cinéma Serge Daney calling the film "a marvel".

The film was re-released in its original and uncut form to American theaters on 31 October 2003. On Rotten Tomatoes, Eyes Without a Face has an approval rating of 97% from 61 reviews, with an average rating of 8.4/10. The critic consensus says "A horrific tale of guilt and obsession, Eyes Without a Face is just as chilling and poetic today as it was when it was first released". Metacritic reports that the film has a weighted average of 90 out of 100, indicating "universal acclaim" The reviewers commented on the film's poetic nature and noted the strong influence of French poet and filmmaker Jean Cocteau. Jonathan Rosenbaum of the Chicago Reader praised the film, referring to it as "absurd and as beautiful as a fairy tale". J. Hoberman of The Village Voice declared the film "a masterpiece of poetic horror and tactful, tactile brutality". The Encyclopedia of Horror Films agreed with the assertion of Cocteau's influence, stating that "Franju invests [the film] with a weird poetry in which the influence of Cocteau is unmistakable". David Edelstein, writing for Slate, commented that "the storyline is your standard obsessed-mad-doctor saga, one step above a Poverty Row Bela Lugosi feature ... [b]ut it's Lugosi by way of Cocteau and Ionesco". In the 2010s, Time Out polled authors, directors, actors and critics who had worked in the horror genre to vote for their top horror films. Time Out placed Eyes Without a Face at number 34 on the top 100.

Home media
Eyes Without a Face was released on VHS on 9 January 2001 by Kino Video and on DVD on 19 October 2004 by the Criterion Collection. The DVD also contains Georges Franju's first documentary Blood of the Beasts (1949), a depiction of a French slaughterhouse. A Region 2 release of Eyes Without a Face was released on 21 April 2008 by Second Sight Films. A Region 4 edition of the film was released on 2 July 2007 by Umbrella Entertainment. The disc also included Franju's documentary Blood of the Beasts. In 2013, the Criterion Collection released the film on Blu-ray, this time transferred directly from the camera negative.

Legacy
The film has influenced other European films since its initial release. Spanish director Jesús Franco created films throughout his career that were influenced by the film. Franco's first such film was the Spanish/French co-production Gritos en la noche (1962). Franco's version of the story concerns the efforts of a mad surgeon, Dr. Orloff, to reconstruct the face of his disfigured daughter Melissa. Inspector Edgar Tanner investigates Orloff using his girlfriend, Wanda Bronsky, as an undercover spy. Franco followed the film with several sequels to Gritos en la noche. He made one more film strongly influenced by the Franju film, Faceless (1988). Faceless has a similar plot involving beautiful women who are abducted by Dr. Flamand's (Helmut Berger) female assistant and kept hostage. The doctor uses the skin of the women to perform plastic surgery on his disfigured sister, but the experiments leave the victims mutilated and dead. The Italian film Atom Age Vampire (1961) was also influenced by Eyes Without a Face with a doctor attempting to take the faces of other women to repair his daughter's face. These homages are seen in the plot line of a police lieutenant who is investigating the circumstances behind the death of a young girl whose body has scars around the eyes. The lieutenant's investigation eventually leads him to a plastic surgery clinic, a similar plot motivation to Eyes Without a Face. The British film Corruption (1968), starring Peter Cushing, adds a new variation to the theme: a surgeon tries to restore his fiancée's beauty by repeatedly treating her with fluids extracted from the pituitary glands of murdered female victims. Spanish director Pedro Almodóvar has stated his film The Skin I Live In (2011), which features a mad scientist who performs skin grafts and surgeries on an unwilling victim, was heavily influenced by Eyes Without a Face.

American film director John Carpenter has suggested that the film inspired the idea of a featureless mask for the Michael Myers character in the slasher film series Halloween. Carpenter recalls that the film crew "didn't have any money to make a mask. It was originally written the way you see it, in other words, it's a pale mask with human features, almost featureless. I don't know why I wrote that down, why Debra [Hill] and I decided on that, maybe it was because of an old movie called Eyes Without a Face."

DVD film reviews have suggested the film influenced director John Woo; critics have compared the graphic detail of the face transplant scene in Woo's action film Face/Off (1997) to the face transplant scene in Eyes Without a Face. Another resemblance is Woo's use of white doves in his films that is similar to the character Christiane's dove-laden escape in the film's finale.

In 2001, on VH1 Storytellers, singer Billy Idol cited the film as giving him the idea for his song "Eyes Without a Face". The song, which has the film's French title ("Les yeux sans visage") as a recurring line in the chorus, takes the father-daughter relationship from the film and recasts it as the deteriorated relationship between the narrator and his lover. The song became Idol's first top-10 hit in the U.S.

Imran series

The Imran Series (Urdu عمران سیریز) is an Urdu spy fiction novel series created by Pakistani writer Ibn-e-Safi. Ali Imran is the pivotal character, a comical secret agent who controls the secret service as X-2 but appears to work as a normal member of the secret service. Except for a handful of people, no one knows his status as the chief of the service.

The first book of the Imran series, Khaufnaak Imarat (The House of Fear) or (The Terrifying Building), (recently translated and published as The House of Fear by Random House, India) was published in October 1955. In early books Imran appears as a solo detective, but in the ninth book, Dhuaen ki Tehreer (The Scribbling in Smoke), he is portrayed as the chief of Secret Service as X-2.

Humour, mystery, suspense, psychology is the essence of Ibn-e-Safi books. Ibn-e-Safi wrote 120 books of Imran Series and 125 books of Jasoosi Dunya “Detective World” 'Fareedi Hameed Series'. Before creating the Imran Series in August 1955, Ibn-e-Safi created Jasoosi Dunya ‘The Detective World’ 'Fareedi Hameed Series' in March 1952 and continued to write until his death in 1980.

Ibn-e-Safi created Imran Series and Jasoosi Duniya “Spy World 'Fareedi Hameed Series' and he is the best Imran Series writer. Both series created by him reached the peak of popularity. His character are famous in subcontinent and internationally. More than two hundred fake writers of Imran Series such as N Safi, Najma Safi, Naghma Safi, Aban Safi, H Iqbal, S Qureshi, MA Rahat, Azhar Kaleem, Mazhar Kaleem, Safdar Shaheen etc. used the popularity of Imran Series and Jasoosi Duniya for themselves.

Overview
Following the footsteps of the first best-selling series, Jasoosi Dunya, this series features Ali Imran – a playful, yet deceiving personality. He is a bright young Oxford graduate with MSc and PhD degrees in chemistry. His comical and apparently incompetent persona hides his identity as head of a secret service. This series has been widely acclaimed for its high literary quality and strong character development.

Imran Series explains the workings of a country's secret service that operates from the capital of the country (supposed by many to be Karachi in Pakistan which was the capital when initial Imran Series novels were written. Although Ibn-e-Safi was careful to never explicitly state this, villains often refer to the country as the "one from South Asia"). The Secret Service is administered by the Secretary of Internal Affairs, Sir Sultan, who offers Imran the position as its head after getting personal help from him in Raat ka Shahzadah (The Prince of Night – #8).

Ali Imran
Ali Imran is a pivotal character in Imran Series. Handsome and bright, the young-man holds MSc, and PhD degrees from Oxford University and has extraordinary sex appeal. He always appears comical and moronic, using these features to camouflage himself as one of the stupidest men. Always shown acting stupid, insane, and funny, he keeps the readers in hysterics at his every action. He never reveals his true side to anyone. He usually dresses eccentrically; for example, a pink coat, a light green shirt, a yellow necktie, white pants, and a purple flat hat with a red rose in it is his typical apparel. Ibne Safi refers to this as Imran's "Technicolor Outfit."

Imran is son of Amma Bi and Mr. Abdul-ur-Rahman, director general of the Central Intelligence Bureau and as being from Genghis Khan's bloodline, he has Mongol lineage. He resides in an apartment with his two most trusted assistants: Sulaiman, the cook, and Joseph Mugunda, his bodyguard. He is, most of the time, seen driving a two-seater sports car.

Imran purposefully keeps multi facets to his personality. As Imran—Ali Imran—he acts as an opportunist who can turn either a police informer or a blackmailer as the situation demands. A perfect cover to his profession. His other most significant personality facet is the Chief of the Secret Services: X-2. Only three other characters know his secret: Sir Sultan, Secretary of the Ministry of Internal Affairs; “Black Zero,” or Tahir, who acts as X-2 in Imran’s absence; and Roshi, a long time friend and a trusted partner. The other two personalities Imran assumes now and then are the Prince of Dhump, a warlord of a fictitious state known as Dhump, and Rana Tahavvar Ali Sandooqui, a wealthy landlord and businessman.

Imran works as a normal member of the Secret Service and none of the other members had a slightest clue of his being their chief officer. These agents usually laugh him off and sneer at him, but as X-2, they really dread him. Imran's favourite agent is Safder Saeed. Imran has perfected the art of dodging bullets. It is called "Sing Art," which he learns from an international Chinese criminal, Sing Hee. Imran calls him Uncle Sing (Chacha Sing) and in return, Sing Hee refers him as nephew. His another old time foe is T3B, Theresia Bumble-Bee of Bohemia. Theresia has a great crush on him but Imran hardly pay heed to her rather jeer at her sentiments.

He, like Col. Ahmad Kamal Faridi, has impregnable character vis-à-vis women. Due to his naive appearance and innocent looks, women are smitten with him, but he usually gives them a cold shoulder.

Other characters
One of Ibn-e-Safi's distinguished writing qualities include formation and development of characters. He has established characters in such a fashion that they appear to be real and materialised. And, Imran Series has a range of diverse, colourful, and sentient characters.

X-2, the chief of the secret service, in fact is Ali Imran (sometimes played by Tahir aka Black Zero). The members of the X-2's team are: Juliana Fitzwater, Safdar Saeed, Tanveer Ashraf, Khawar, Chauhan, Nomani, Siddeeque, Zafar ul Mulk, Jameson, and Nimi. Sir Sultan, Secretary of the Ministry of foreign affairs,

is Imran or X-2's boss. Roshni, an Anglo-Burmese girl, is Imran's long time friend; she was Imran's working partner for sometime, but later left him.

Captain Fayyaz is the Superintendent of the Central Intelligence Bureau. Not very sharp or intelligent, he with the help of Imran is able to solve numerous cases, which resulted in his promotions.

Imran resides in a flat with his cook, Sulaiman, Sulaiman's wife, Gul-Rukh and the Central African bodyguard, Joseph Mugunda.

Imran's family includes his father Karam Rahman (also mentioned as Abdul Rahman in initial books), Director General of Central Intelligence Bureau, mother Amma Bi, and sister Suraiya. Suraiya marries Dr. Shahid in the books, Adha Teetar and Adha Batair.

In series written by Ibn-E-Safi, One of a biggest foe of Imran was Tsung Hi, a chinese criminal who on certain occasions favored Imran by not killing him or harming him and vice versa. He was described as a tall, very thin man with glowing eyes full of energy. Imran considered him one of his worthy adversary and vice versa. Tsung Hi was a master in martial art as well as a very intelligent individual. He knew a very lesser known art of deceiving bullets from a very close range which Imran was able to learn from him in their first encounter in London during his study in Oxford. He joyfully calls Imran Bhatija (son of one's brother) meaning nephew in return to which Imran used to call him chacha meaning uncle.

Headquarters of the Secret Service
Daanish Manzil was the initial headquarters of the Secret Services. It, however, was exposed thus destroyed in one of the adventures (see Sugarbank trilogy) and the Secret Services was forced to shift its headquarters to a new building called "Psycho Mansion," which operates under the semblance of a psychiatric clinic. Till Safi's last book "Psycho Mansion" maintains its status of being the headquarters. The members of the Secret Service, from time to time, also use another building, the mansion of "Rana Palace," as a hideout and operations centre.

Plagiarism
During 1960–1963, while Ibn-e-Safi was suffering from schizophrenia, many amateur writers started posing themselves as Ibn-e-Safi and produced third class copies of his work, distorting the character of not only Ali Imran, but also of Colonel Faridi and Captain Hameed. These acts of vandalism were reported by Ibn-e-Safi himself in the preface of Daidh Matwaalay (One and a Half Amused – #42), the book he returned with after his recovery. Some writers and publishers still continue to write on Safi's characters, much to the annoyance of many fans. Safi used to mention fans' complaints sometimes in the prefaces, and mocked the fake publishers and writers in his own witty style.

During Ibn-e-Safi's life, many writers started writing on his characters illegally, and many wrtiers continued to write even after Ibn Safi's death, such as MA Rahat, S Qureshi, Mazhar Kaleem, Safdar Shaheen, MA Peerzada, Mushtaq Ahmed Qureshi, MS Qadri, Zaheer Ahmed (Author), Jahanzeb Aziz, Ibn-e-Rahat, Ali Nawazish, Irshad Alaser Jaferi, Syed Ali Hassan Gillani etc. Ayne Safi (N Safi), MA Sajid, Ibne Kaleem, Nasir Javed, Azhar Kaleem, Humayun Iqbal, writes books in the series, and has introduced many new characters in the series.

MA Rahat died on 24 April 2017. Ibn-e-Kaleem died on 12 March 2017. Mazhar Kaleem died on 26 May 2018. Some fans of Ibn-e-Safi dismiss many fake Imran Series writers books, arguing that they distorted the original 'feel' of the series, and that he deformed the key characteristics of many characters, including Ali Imran. Nevertheless.

Rieku ja Raiku

Rieku ja Raiku is a Finnish comic strip.

The strip originally started as a parody of an earlier comic called Kieku ja Kaiku, and takes obvious inspiration from it. Kieku ja Kaiku was an educational children's comic strip about two anthropomorphic young roosters. One of them, called Kaiku, would usually do something foolish, and the other, called Kieku, would then look after him, giving an educational message to the young readers. The comic's dialogue was all in poetic verse.

Rieku ja Raiku is aimed at a more mature audience. It is drawn in a more cartoony and less realistic style. The characters, Rieku and Raiku, are nondescript adult male birds, whose adventures mainly concern going out to bars to drink booze and try to pick up female birds. The poetic verse of the dialogue has been faithfully preserved, but it doesn't have educational messages any more. The strip is published in a couple of magazines aimed at young adults and middle-agers.

The Revs

The Revs are an indie rock band from Kilcar, County Donegal in Ireland. The group consisted of three childhood friends: Rory Gallagher (named after the famous blues guitarist Rory Gallagher and who had previously released the album 20th Century at the age of 18) on bass guitar and vocals, John McIntyre (guitar, vocals) and Michael O' Donnell (drums, percussion).

History
The Revs formed on the eve of the 2000 millennium with an aim to "change the face of Irish music".

The Revs released their debut "Sonictonic" in 2002, a live album recorded at Temple Bar Music Centre in Dublin (Now the Button Factory). Early on, the band's music courted controversy with its attacks on manufactured pop; for example, the group's single "Louis Walsh" targeted Louis Walsh (the svengali behind Westlife and Boyzone amongst others).

They followed this up with the stand-alone singles "Tuesday, Monday" and "Loaded" before the debut studio album Suck in February 2003. This album (recorded in Trackmix Studios, Clonsilla, Dublin) entered the charts gaining them many new fans, as well as pleasing the ones who had assembled en masse due to their constant touring across Ireland and the UK. The songs are an eclectic mix of punk rock, surf guitars, pop-rock and indie, similar to Pixies, Radiohead and Muse, with paranoid lyrics (influenced by Bill Hicks) expressing their conflicting love and distaste with the world.They were voted 3rd in the Hot Press readers poll behind U2 and The Frames in 2003. They are one of the few Irish bands to ever play in Slane Castle. In March 2004, they had a top 30 hit in Australia with the single "Death of a Dj". They embarked on a short two-week coast to coast tour and received rave reviews from the Australian music press.

Taking a lengthy break during which they decided upon a change of direction, wrote dozens of songs and roadtested them in small venues around Ireland, they returned in November 2004 with a sample of the music that was to come: a new single "Broken?", backed with "Ode to Saint Susie, Patron Saint Of Supermarkets". They now sounded more like The Flaming Lips, Big Star or The Smiths, with their love of Radiohead still shining through, and this release confused the public who had dismissed them. During the months that opened up 2005, they recorded their third album, The Revs, in Malmö, Sweden, with Tore Johansson–the producer behind Franz Ferdinand and The Cardigans.

This LP was released on 14 October 2005, following the single "Time Slippin'" in September. Despite being their most critically acclaimed release to date, it was their least commercially successful album in Ireland. A successful European tour of Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium and France followed in 2006, alongside the well received European release of The Revs. Two songs from the band's self-titled album - "Take It All Back" and "Streets" - appeared on the soundtrack of the blockbuster movie P.S. I Love You.

In January 2007, Gallagher announced on the band's official forum that the Revs were taking a break of "indefinite" length. In July 2007, the band played a short tour of Ireland, believed to have been their last.

From 2001 to 2006 The Revs had released 3 albums, 7 singles and 2 EPs.

Rory Gallagher released a solo album in September 2008 called God Bless The Big Bang. It received some great press reaction in Ireland with Hotpress magazine declaring it a "Triumphant return, 4 Stars" but it failed to chart. However the industry response helped him to gain the support slot for Britpop/mod legends Ocean Colour Scene on their 2009 comeback tour.

In 2010, Gallagher had a strange online hit which was in a fact a leaked comedy demo recording called "Ryanair Blues". It broke through to national daytime radio in Ireland in November 2010 and went to number 1 in the download charts the following day as it was released for free. It did not feature on his forthcoming solo album, released in 2012.

Gallagher then released four new singles to iTunes in 2011 under the name of "Rory and the Island". They all charted in the top 30 in Ireland, with "Colours" reaching number 8. Gallagher played solo acoustic gigs at most of the top Irish festivals that summer 2011 including the Electric Picnic.

Rory and the island had another iTunes top ten hit in June 2012 with "Boys in Green 2012" a song for the Rep. of Ireland football team recorded with Sharon Shannon for the European championships, It featured as a bonus track on the limited edition of the album "Auntie Depressant and Uncle Hope" released a fortnight later. Rory and the island had a massive cult hit with Jimmy's Winning Matches in late 2012 written in support of the Donegal football team in the All-Ireland Senior Football Championship.

John McIntyre and his wife Zoe Conway received rave reviews for their new recordings and live gigs in traditional Irish music in late 2012.

Rory and the island released an EP called "dingo rush" in 2013, it featured a track called " mad dog coll " which was shortlisted as song of the year by IMRO. it reached number 19 on iTunes ireland in FEB 2013. Rory and the island released an album " Watching the Sun going down" in jan 2016, Five singles from the album charted on iTunes ireland, with " Peace, Love and Ringo Starr" going into the top 20 again. all 3 albums were remastered and released on Spotify the same year.

The Revs played a re-union show in Whelans in Dublin in August 2017. It was a sell out show which led to the band being approached to play a second show.

Albums

 * SonicTonic (2002) - highest chart position No. 5
 * Suck (2003) - highest chart position No.3
 * The Revs (2005) - highest chart position No. 25

On Vandalism

 * Vandalism actually seems to potentially become more significant and a more serious problem under this system -- it might happen less often, but it would be harder for users to deal with quickly: if vandals use many sockpuppets (possibly other trolls by proxy) to vote up vandalized versions; there is a risk they would game the system. Under the current system, they have no technical measures that they can put on their side (to hide under)

 * Not all reverts are bad. Not all improvements are bad; under a rating system it would be difficult for readers to find the best version.  Suppose 100 people had voted on version 4, then you make a bugfix, version 5... those 100 people are gone, how are you going to convince people to dig into the history and find the better version to rate it up.

 * How do you handle ties between the ratings of two versions? Newest wins? At least with the reversion model, editors are able to make changes that matter effective quickly.

 * What about historical improvements being buried in vandalism? Surely people will not be convinced to scour deep into article history looking for versions they should vote for and trying to decide which set of changes is best --- the decision would be a potentially complex one, especially since people would be encouraged to edit the 'presentation' version instead of the latest: this has the potential to create many change conflicts which could be hard to merge in the end.

 * Counter to the principle WP:NOT. The version of the article should reflect an appropriate consensus so as to be as neutral as possible. --Mysidia (talk) 16:37, 19 August 2005 (UTC)

utterly useless proposal. If I add information to the article, I want to add it to the article, not to the version that happens to be 'featured' today only to be gone tomorrow.

Maine State House

The Maine State House in Augusta, Maine, is the state capitol of the State of Maine. The building was completed in 1832, one year after Augusta became the capital of Maine. Built using Maine granite, the State House was based on the design of the Massachusetts State House (Maine was formerly part of Massachusetts, and became a separate state in 1820).

Governor Janet Mills and the Maine Legislature convene at the State House.

History

When Maine separated from Massachusetts and became a state in 1820, a number of cities and towns sought the honor of becoming the state capital. The principal aspirants were Portland, Brunswick, Hallowell, Waterville, Belfast, Wiscasset, and Augusta. The first capital of Maine was Portland, but it moved to Augusta because of its more central location. The Legislature passed and Governor Samuel E. Smith signed the bill establishing Augusta as the capital in 1832.

After careful consideration of various sites on both sides of the river, the governor and the Commissions chose a 34 acre lot for the Maine State House and extending from the old Hallowell road to the Kennebec River. The building was designed by the renowned architect Charles Bulfinch of Boston, and in its original form resembles his Massachusetts State House.

About 150 ft in length, including the central portion with columns and cupola and two wings extending north and south, the building's cornerstone was laid on July 4, 1829, amid impressive Masonic ceremonies. Construction was of granite from Hallowell quarries and took three years to complete. The cost of the building was originally estimated to be $80,000, but when completed, expenditures of the building, furnishings and grounds amounted to $135,000, of which $11,500 was contributed by the city of Augusta. The Maine Legislature held its first session in the new state Capitol on January 4, 1832.

The interior of the Capitol was remodeled in 1852 and again in 1860 to provide additional room for state departments. In 1890–1891, a large three-story wing was added to the rear of the building to accommodate the State Library and to provide more office space for departments. Major remodeling of the Capitol during 1909–1910 established the present-day appearance of the building. It was enlarged according to designs by G. Henri Desmond, necessitating the demolition of almost all the old buildings save the front and rear walls. While the noble Bulfinch front was preserved, the length of the building was doubled to 300 ft by extending the north and south wings. A dome rising to a height of 185 ft was built to replace the original cupola.

A gilt copper statue of Minerva, the draped female figure of Wisdom, by William Clark Noble of Gardiner, surmounted the dome. The House of Representatives occupies the third and fourth floors of the north wing and the Senate chambers occupy similar quarters in the south wing.

The governor's office is located in renovated space on the second floor at the rear of the central portion of the Capitol along with the Hall of Flags and the law library. The governor's office overlooks the massive, granite State Office Building located to the west of the State House. A recently renovated tunnel connects the State House and the State Office Building. The tunnel houses several Maine wildlife scenes. A side tunnel leads to a cold war fallout shelter, large enough to house the Maine senate, house and various other officials and aides. Construction of the shelter started on May 5, 1983, under the pretense of renovation; completed September 3, 1985, and it has been fully stocked and staffed ever since.

At the south side of the Capitol grounds, the Maine State Library, Maine State Museum and Maine State Archives are housed in a modern building.

Throughout the building are portraits of governors and other men and women who have served Maine throughout its history as a province and a state.

To the north, across from the State House, is the Executive Mansion, more commonly known as The Blaine House, which Harriet Blaine Beale presented to the state in 1919.

The State House was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973, for its importance in the history of the state, and for its architecture. It is the only known work of Charles Bulfinch for which a complete set of architectural drawings has survived.

On August 15, 2022, a large metal object traveling at a high rate of speed crashed onto the Capitol grounds, narrowly missing a Maine Capitol Police employee. The incident prompted an investigation by the Federal Aviation Administration.

2014 dome replacement
The Maine Legislature's Legislative Council authorized the replacement of the copper sheath of the dome, which was long past its intended 75-year lifespan when it was installed in 1909–1910. The copper was pockmarked with hail damage and corrosion, with some holes in it as large as a dime. The eight-month project commenced in March 2014 and completed in October. The dome appears exactly the same as prior to renovations, with the exception of the color; it will appear brown for approximately 35 years until the copper oxidizes to a green once again. The statue of Minerva was also re-gilded and repaired by EverGreene Architectural Arts. The cost of $1.2 million was paid from a Legislative Council account. The replacement of the copper was completed October 1, with some minor work lasting until November. Legislative leaders placed a time capsule in the dome, containing a book of Maine laws, a legislative handbook, the September 30 issue of the Kennebec Journal, some of the old copper, and personal items from the legislators.

The Legislative Council debated what to do with the old copper roof once it was removed from the dome. The contract for the project originally called for the State to have salvage rights for 500 sqft of the old copper and the contractor to have rights to the remainder, which has an estimated value of $15,000. It had been suggested that the State may want to keep more of the copper in order to do more with it. Democratic Assistant Senate Majority Leader Anne Haskell has suggested that at least some of the copper could be sold or auctioned to Mainers who might want a memento of the building, such as former state workers or legislators. She also suggested some sort of contest could be held among artists for using the copper, perhaps as part of the State's "one percent for art" program. Republican Senate Minority Leader Michael Thibodeau stated his support for some sort of artistic use of the copper but expressed concern about how the copper would be stored, storage costs, and security.

On September 24, the Council decided to purchase the 6,500 sqft of old copper from the contractor and will make some into souvenirs and sell about 600 sqft to artists for the making of art and the remainder will be scrapped. It is conservatively expected that the portion sold to artists will bring approximately $12,250 to the State, while the making of souvenirs will cost about $3,600. Legislative leaders believe the State could make more money than estimated.

Talk:Parasitology

Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Thai, Asian Parasitology
Just a primer on the obvious issues involved in transpacific parasitology:

In Asia, insects are a much broader category than in Europe and America. Nematoda, platyhelminthes, and arthropoda as a whole are included under the insect radical in the dictionary.

Hexapoda is an important concept in translating between these two cultures' ideas of entomology and parasitology. Indeed, hexapoda has a separate word, which is used in the name of the capital of Yunnan, in the south of China, the city of Kunming, the first syllable, "Kun".

South China is contiguous with North China, so all manner of parasites have been more or less tracked to the north. There is no separation from the tropical parasitical world as in Europe, with its strict separation from Africa and the Mideast. Since this civilization grew up as a temperate-tropic contiguous entity, it is perfectly conscious of the worst parasites in a way that Europe and America are only now coming to be, with European presence in South Africa, South America, Australia, The Raj, etc. One could say that in general terms Asia has much more experience with parasitology than Europe/America.

Search:Dongting Lake at a major peer review site yields very many results. This lake, a short distance south of the major city of Wuhan in mid-China is an important center of schistosomiasis research.

This geographic and cultural contiguousity of course is why one takes one's shoes off indoors, as far north as Hokkaido. And, why going barefoot is more or less verboten, again as far north as Hokkaido. And, why if one drops food on the floor, it is instantly discarded, no exceptions, no rinsing in the sink. These parameters are incredibly strict. If one simply "parses" the word insect, one can see that it consists of a Chinese or Asian stepping on something. It couldn't be a simpler word.

Of course the word dragon, and all the attention focused on the dragon, as known in the West from seeing Dragons in the lunar new year parades, and in Dragon Boat racing, has everything to do with parasitology. The climax of the Dragon Parade typically consists of the Dragon eventually succumbing to hunger and eating an orange.

Under the insect radical one not only finds hexapoda, arthropoda including arachnids, scorpions, shrimp, millipedes, and others, one also finds, strangely enough, badgers, snakes, oysters, clams, eggs and rainbows. It is a bit mysterious.--McDogm 16:38, 19 August 2005 (UTC)

Parasitic worms
`'mikka (t) 19:02, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Can someone expand rather simplistic articles Helminthology and parasitic worm?
 * What about nemathelminthes (nematode + helminth)? Is it the same as Nematomorpha?

Micro vs. macro parasitology
Is it normal to divide parasitology into micro and macro divisitions? And if so, where's the line drawn? --David Munch (talk) 14:59, 18 March 2009 (UTC)
