Tony Mortimer

Anthony Michael Mortimer (born 21 October 1970) is a British singer, songwriter and record producer from London. He is a former member of the boy band East 17, who were originally active from 1991 to 1997 and sold over 20 million records worldwide. Mortimer wrote the band's only number-one single, "Stay Another Day".

Career
Mortimer was a member of the 1990s boy band East 17, and was the band's primary songwriter. With East 17, Mortimer had seven top ten singles and four hit albums on the UK Singles Chart and UK Albums Chart respectively between 1992 and 1997. He turned to songwriting when the group disbanded in 1997, due to negative media coverage after fellow member Brian Harvey said that he had taken 12 ecstasy tablets in one night. In 1998, Mortimer's East 17 bandmates briefly re-formed the group without him, and released two singles as E-17. They disbanded again the following year.

During his time in East 17, Mortimer wrote the Childliners "The Gift of Christmas" which was a charity single featuring other popular chart acts at the time such as MN8, Backstreet Boys, Peter Andre, Boyzone and Dannii Minogue among others.

In 2010, East 17 re-formed as a three piece (minus former lead singer, Brian Harvey) and were seeking a new lead singer, a position filled in 2011 by Blair Dreelan. They released the single "Secret of My Life" from the projected album Recharged but Dreelan left the band due to a contractual obligation not to contribute to East 17, while he was still connected with his previous musical group. The band scrapped the album and in 2012 released the newly recorded, Dark Light, with Mortimer in place as the lead vocalist. The group toured Europe throughout 2011 and in early 2012. In June 2012 they returned to Australia for the first time in over 15 years. Two singles were released from Dark Light; "I Can't Get You Off my Mind" and "Friday Night", whilst a third single, "Counting Clouds", was due for release in July 2012.

Mortimer has continued as a record producer since 1997, from his studio in Essex, as well as recording his own songs including the single "N Toxyc 8".

Mortimer has also managed bands, including girl group Urban Angel, whose members included Roxanne Pallett, who wrote some of the group's songs. The band broke up after Pallett won a role in ITV soap opera Emmerdale.

Mortimer appeared on Never Mind the Buzzcocks in Season 19 on Episode 3. He competed in the BBC's Winter Wipeout series in March 2012 and finished second, ahead of former Coronation Street star Steven Arnold, but behind the winner Eddie "The Eagle" Edwards.

In December 2012, Mortimer appeared as a panellist on Channel 5 show The Wright Stuff and again in June 2013. on 17 June 2013 he released his debut solo album Songs from the Suitcase. In early 2014, Mortimer departed from East 17 to focus more on his solo career. In December 2019, Mortimer released a re-recorded version of ‘Stay Another Day’ with the Waltham Forest Youth Choir, to raise money for mental health charity CALM.

Personal life
Mortimer has two daughters with his partner Tracey. The award-winning lyrics of his song, "Stay Another Day", were inspired by the death of his brother, Ollie, by suicide. It starts with the entry of Deborah by Jon and Vangelis. In October 2000, Mortimer was chosen as one of four pall bearers at the funeral of gangster Reggie Kray.

Talk:Sudan I

Untitled
If someone has the time and could search for it, I know I read an article about exactly how much of that sauce you would have to consume before the amount matches what was given to the laboratory animals that got cancer. I think it was in the vincinity of 800 liters.

I looked at a couple of the pubmed article abstracts (PMID: 15766589, PMID: 7548728 (#s 1&13)), and both call Sudan I a carcinogen, not a possible carcinogen. Should the article be changed to reflect that scientists consider it a known carcinogen? Also, they explain that it acts by binding with DNA. I've no idea how concentrated it needs to be; it's the colorant that's toxic, so how concentrated it is in a given sauce could vary greatly - it was a minor ingredient in a minor ingredient in a minor ingredient in a minor ingredient in one sauce, yet far more concentrated in others. Also, "concentrated it needs to be" for what? A 50% death rate? ( LD50) - Elvey 15:42, 2 May 2006 (UTC)

Carcinogenity
If there is proof for a substance to be actually carcinongenic, how come it is in IARC category 3? Their "3" is for everything where there is no conclusive proof, starting with clean drinking water and apples. Actual carcinogenic substances go to categories 2 (proven risk), or 1 (clear and present danger).

The article is confusing in this regard. Is there proof? And if there is none, and IARC category 3 applies, which other report caused the bans? --Jwilkes (talk) 21:32, 10 March 2023 (UTC)

Media coverage
Hi. The "food scare" section claims that the fact that it was not banned until very recently was not mentioned. It definitely was, at least in some TV news bulletins. It did not affect the slant of the reporting though.Pete9804 14:22, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

Rauma-class missile boat

The Rauma-class missile boats (Rauma-luokan ohjusvene) are a class of missile boat in use by the Finnish Navy.

It is the predecessor of the Hamina-class missile boats. The ships were constructed at the Rauma shipyard (initially by Hollming and after the merger Finnyards) in Rauma, Finland. All the ships have their home port in Pansio.

All four vessels underwent a 70 million EUR modernization program at the Western Shipyard in Teijo. The program includes the installation of a new version of the 9LV225 control and command system made by SAAB (the Mk.3 has been replaced by a Mk.4), the replacement of the Mistral SAM missiles with a MASS decoy system. The MASS system also replaces the Philax chaff and IR flares, the Thales Matilda radar warning system, and the six 103 mm rails for rocket illuminants, that were previously fitted. The sonar and ASW systems are being completely renewed (the previous Simrad ST 240 has been replaced by a ST2400). The modernization programme began late in 2010 with all four vessels expected to be ready by autumn 2013. The first vessel, Naantali, was handed over to the Finnish Navy in May 2013. The modernization will allow the vessels to be operational into the 2020s.

The vessels were previously armed with a sextuple Mistral SAM launcher, which could be replaced by a Sako twin-barrel 23 mm/87 anti-aircraft cannon (a modified version of the ZU-23-2). Additionally the vessels had a portable Mistral SAM launcher pad that could be mounted on the ship's deck, or on land, in order to protect them when moored.

After modernization in 2010-2013 the SAM system was replaced by a MASS launcher.

On 18 February 2015, the Finnish media reported that the Rauma class has been banned from use after fatigue damage was discovered in the vessels' hull.

The vessels were repaired and back in operation by 2016. They are planned to be retired from service when the new Pohjanmaa-class corvettes enter service in the late 2020s.

Talk:Bradford-on-Avon

Requested move
The town's name does not have hyphens (See town council website for proof). However, un-hyphened version exsists as a re-direct. Tompw 12:32, 28 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Support. Philip Baird Shearer 19:24, 1 September 2005 (UTC)
 * No Support I'm not convinced that the Town Council web site is correct. Convincing counter-proofs are that Ordnancy Survey uses hyphens, as does every physical road sign pointing to the place.
 * Please sign your comments with four tildes (the ~ symbol). Also, it's a bit late now. Tompw 19:03, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
 * I think it should have hyphens (the Ordnance Survey is good enough evidence), but to save the possibility of constant changes back and forth, I have simply made reference to the hyphenated spelling in the article's opening line. Carbonix 02:56, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

This article has been renamed after the result of a move request.

Bearfield
Until just now there was a redirect from Bearfield to Bradford on Avon, although no mention of the word "Bearfield" in the article. It was created in 2014 with the edit summary "Bearfield is the local name for part of the north-western side of Bradford-on-Avon, and is the name of an independent church in that part of this Wiltshire town." There is an entry for "Bearfield" in List of places in Wiltshire, but no mention of it in List of United Kingdom locations: Bea-Bem. I've created a new redirect from Bearfield, Wiltshire to Bradford on Avon, and used it in the "list of places in Wiltshire". If there should be a mention of "Bearfield" in this article, please add it. If the whole thing is fictional or non-notable, please remove the various mentions of it, and turn the new Bearfield dab page into a redirect to the American township. Thanks.

Requested move 3 August 2018

 * The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: Moved. No explicit opposition after a week of listing — Amakuru (talk) 15:13, 10 August 2018 (UTC)

Bradford on Avon → Bradford-on-Avon – This is the name of both the town and its CP. Britannica also has it at Bradford-on-Avon.  Crouch, Swale  ( talk ) 09:47, 3 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Government legislation uses the hyphens as do some of the sources in the article but the parish and county councils and local newspaper don't. I'm not sure if either of the names is more commonly used than the other. Peter James (talk) 22:12, 3 August 2018 (UTC)

 * The above discussion is preserved as an archive of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on this talk page or in a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

Hyphens or not?
The page was moved from "Bradford-on-Avon" to "Bradford on Avon" in 2005. It was moved back again in 2018 after a correct "Requested Move" discussion. The town's name in the text needs to match that in the title (except within quotes). Please don't change the text to disagree with the title. If you feel really strongly about it, set up another formal Requested Move and come with good arguments to support your case. Pam D  14:02, 12 September 2018 (UTC)
 * I agree, the 2005 RM appeared to have a lack of consensus for move, I'm not sure if it is correct that the railway added hyphens incorrectly but it has been shown that third party sources such as OS and Britannica use hyphens (WP:UCN), so I think a new RM should indeed be made if we want to change it back.  Crouch, Swale  ( talk ) 14:38, 12 September 2018 (UTC) OK I see that it was closed with 1 support but later 2 people said that it should have hyphens.  Crouch, Swale  ( talk )  20:45, 5 October 2018 (UTC)
 * Railway station names do not have to match the names of the community. The use of hyphens in the station name does not change what the name of the Town is. Tom pw (talk) 16:44, 3 October 2018 (UTC)
 * Seems reasonable. If someone had come to the above RM with a reason not to hyphenate, we would have looked at it and decided whether it was legit. Since they didn't, they should come forth and provide such evidence in a new RM of they feel strongly about it. Edit warring the text is not the solution. — Amakuru (talk) 14:59, 12 September 2018 (UTC)
 * The page is now semi-protected, which should calm things down for a while. Pam  D  16:12, 12 September 2018 (UTC)
 * I wish I'd known about the proposed move... the Town Council uses no hyphens. The County uses no hyphens (see here), mostly (see here). The national government uses both (shown here). The Town Council tweeted the hyphens got added by the Post Office. Only the Ordnance Survey use hyphens (town, civil parish, which are essentially the same 'place') - but do people know whether this is meant to be the authority or reflect people's usage? I don't want to do a requsted move until I get a sense about all the pieces of evidence out there. Does anyone have any evidence either way they'd like to add? Tom pw  (talk) 16:44, 3 October 2018 (UTC)
 * I'd recommend filing a new RM, as there doesn't appear to be clear consensus on which title is the best.  Crouch, Swale  ( talk ) 17:03, 3 October 2018 (UTC)
 * Thanks, I probably will. I'd like to give everyone a chance to weigh in with any evidence either way. I'll give it a week. 19:48, 5 October 2018 (UTC)

Great Ireland

Great Ireland (Old Norse: Írland hit mikla or Írland it mikla), also known as White Men's Land (Hvítramannaland), and in Latin similarly as Hibernia Major and Albania, was a land said by various Norsemen to be located near Vinland. In one report, in the Saga of Eric the Red, some skrælingar captured in Markland described the people in what was supposedly White Men's Land, to have been "dressed in white garments, uttered loud cries, bore long poles, and wore fringes." Another report identifies it with the Albani people, with "hair and skin as white as snow."

Scholars and writers disagree on the nature of the land, from either being treated as a myth based on faded knowledge of lands in the western ocean, to theories on actually locating it somewhere in North America.

Mythical origins
Celtic folklore tells of a mythical land across the western ocean often referred to as the Celtic Otherworld, also known as Annwn or Avalon, among other names. The Byzantine scholar Procopius of Caesarea described the Otherworld of the ancient Gauls and said it was located west of Britain.

Plutarch (1st cent.), in a chapter from the Moralia called 'Concerning the Face Which Appears in the Orb of the Moon', describes a land called Ogygia that was five days sail from Britain and that the Celtic natives also knew of three other lands equal distance from Ogygia and from each other in the direction of the setting sun including a 'Great Continent' and 'Land of Cronus' and from the ancient era until the early Christian historical era, geographers referred to the waters beyond Iceland as the ‘Cronian Sea’.

Irish documents called ‘Immrama’ from the 6th and 7th centuries supposedly record the adventures of Irish priests in the western ocean, while other folkloric stories tell of the Atlantic voyages of Saint Brendan and King Arthur, often considered mythical. Gerardus Mercator refers to a Jacob Cnoyen, who had learned that eight men returned to Norway from an expedition to the Arctic islands in 1364, in a letter to John Dee (1577), stating specifically that the eight men who came to Norway in 1364 were not survivors of a recent expedition, but descended from the colonists who had settled the distant lands several generations earlier and claimed to be descendants of King Arthur's expedition.

The following is a translation taken from Mercator's 1569 polar map: "'we have taken [the Arctic geography] from the Itinerium of Jacobus Cnoyen of the Hague, who makes some citations from the Gesta of Arthur of Britain; however, the greater and most important part he learned from a certain priest at the court of the king of Norway in 1364. He was descended in the fifth generation from those whom Arthur had sent to inhabit these lands, and he related that in the year 1360 a certain Minorite, an Englishman from Oxford, a mathematician, went to those islands; and leaving them, advanced still farther by magic arts and mapped out all and measured them by an astrolabe in practically the subjoined figure, as we have learned from Jacobus. The four canals there pictured he said flow with such current to the inner whirlpool, that if vessels once enter they cannot be driven back by wind.'"

Landnámabók
According to the Landnámabók, Ari Marsson discovered the land six days' sailing west of Ireland. This journey is thought to have occurred around the year 983. "Their son was Ari, who drifted to White Men's Land, which some people call Greater Ireland. It lies in the ocean to westward, near Vineland the Good, said to be a six-day sail west from Ireland. Ari couldn't get away, and was baptized there. This story was first told by Hrafn Limerick-Farer who spent a long time at Limerick in Ireland. Thorkel Gellisson quoted some Icelanders who had heard Earl Thorfinn of Orkney say that Ari had been recognized in White Man's Land, and couldn't get away from there, but was thought very highly of."

Annals of Greenland
The Annals of Greenland, an 11th-century Norse chronicle, says: "Next to Vinland the Good and a little beyond lies Albania, which is Hvitramannaland. Thither formerly were sailings from Ireland. Irishmen and Icelanders recognized Ari, son of Mar and Thorkatla from Reykjaness, of whom no tidings have been received for a long time and who became a chieftain of the land."

Saga of Eric the Red
White Men's Land is also mentioned in the Saga of Eric the Red, where it is related that the inhabitants of Markland speak of it to Thorfinn Karlsefni. "Now, when they sailed from Vinland, they had a southern wind, and reached Markland, and found five Skrælingar; one was a bearded man, two were women, two children. Karlsefni's people caught the children, but the others escaped and sunk down into the earth. And they took the children with them, and taught them their speech, and they were baptized. The children called their mother Vætilldi, and their father Uvægi. They said that kings ruled over the land of the Skrælingar, one of whom was called Avalldamon, and the other Valldidida. They said also that there were no houses, and the people lived in caves or holes. They said, moreover, that there was a land on the other side over against their land, and the people there were dressed in white garments, uttered loud cries, bore long poles, and wore fringes. This was supposed to be Hvitramannaland (White Man's Land). Then came they to Greenland, and remained with Eirik the Red during the winter."

Eyrbyggja saga
In the Eyrbyggja saga, Gudleif Gudlaugson with his crew had attempted to sail from Dublin to Iceland, but was instead driven out to sea, "first west and then south-west, well out of sight of land". They finally arrived in a land; they did not know where, but it seemed great. Later, the inhabitants of the land came to meet them, and the Norse thought they seemed to speak Irish. Soon, hundreds of these people came to attack and capture the Norsemen, and marched them inland to a court to be tried and sentenced. The Norse then understood that these people wanted either to kill or to enslave them, but were soon saved by the intervention of an Icelandic-speaking leader-figure who lived among the people. He started asking detailed questions about people in Borgarfjord and Breidafjord in Iceland, and gave the Norse some items to pass on to specific people there. He also claimed that Gudleif had been lucky to arrive at the place, because "this is a big country and the harbours are few and far between". Although the man did not want to reveal his own identity (reportedly to keep his "kinsmen and blood-brothers" from getting in trouble by trying to visit him), the Norse later took him to have been Bjorn the Breidavik-Champion, who had been exiled from Iceland some thirty years earlier.

The described circumstances in this report have led some to connect it with Great Ireland, although the Eyrbyggja saga does not make this explicit identification. The voyage is thought to have taken place in 1029.

12th century Norman Sicily
In the 12th century, in Norman Sicily (where the Normans probably brought the belief with them from Scandinavia), the Arab geographer al-Idrisi in his famous Tabula Rogeriana mentioned Irlandah-al-Kabirah (Great Ireland). According to him, "from the extremity of Iceland to that of Great Ireland," the sailing time was "one day." Although historians note that both al-Idrisi and the Norse tend to understate distances, the only location this reference is thought to have possibly pointed to, must likely have been in Greenland.

Hauksbók
The Hauksbók states that the inhabitants of Hvítramannaland were albani, meaning people with white hair and skin.

16th-century Iceland
In a 16th-century Icelandic text, a chart had apparently been made of the land; "Sir Erlend Thordson had obtained from abroad the geographical chart of that Albania, or land of the White men, which is situated opposite Vinland the good, of which mention has been before made in this little book, and which the merchants formerly called Hibernia Major or Great Ireland, and lies, as has been said, to the west of Ireland proper. This chart had held accurately all those tracts of land, and the boundaries of Markland, Einfœtingjaland, and little Helluland, together with Greenland, to the west of it, where apparently begins the good Terra Florida."

Location hypotheses
Kirsten Seaver identified the land as a fabled country, which had arisen on the background of the faded knowledge of lands in the far western ocean by Icelanders.

Carl Christian Rafn positioned Great Ireland in Chesapeake Bay. Rafn based his identification on Shawnee Amerindian legends of a race described as "white men who used iron instruments". These legends he connected to the description of the inhabitants of Greater Ireland as being white people who carried poles.

Other sources place Great Ireland in Newfoundland, Canada. Author Farley Mowat proposed that Great Ireland was on the western shore of Newfoundland, in the vicinity of St.George's Bay, and was populated by Papar who had fled first Iceland and then Greenland escaping Norse invaders.

More recent research agrees with the early assessment already proposed by Fridtjof Nansen in 1911 and sees Hvítramannaland as a purely mythological country based on a Norse reception of Irish geographical myths during the Viking Age.

Al-Fatiha Foundation

The Al-Fatiha Foundation was an organization which advanced the civil, political, and legal rights of LGBTQ+ Muslims. It was founded in 1997 by Faisal Alam, a Pakistani American LGBTQ+ rights activist, and was registered as a nonprofit organization in the United States until 2011.

History

Alam founded Al-Fatiha in November 1997. The organization grew out of an internet listserve for questioning Muslims from 25 countries, and by October 1998 had developed numerous in-person chapters. At its height, Al-Fatiha had 14 chapters in the United States, as well as offices in England, Canada, Spain, Turkey, and South Africa.

The name "Al-Fatiha" means "the Opening." It is also the name of the first chapter of the Qur'an. In the beginning of that chapter ('surah'), God is described as compassionate and merciful; the organization's founders believe that these attributes characterize Islam, rather than hatred and homophobia. Each year, Al-Fatiha hosted an international membership retreat and conference. Early conferences took place in Boston, New York, London and San Francisco in the late 1990s and early 2000s, and focused on issues such as the reconciliation of religion and sexual orientation. The last Al-Fatiha conference was held in 2005 in Atlanta, Georgia.

Fatwa
In 2001, Al-Muhajiroun, an international organization seeking the establishment of a global Islamic caliphate, issued a fatwa declaring that all members of Al-Fatiha were murtadd, or apostates, and condemning them to death. Because of the threat and coming from conservative societies, many members of the foundation's site still prefer to be anonymous so as to protect their identity while continuing a tradition of secrecy.

Challenges
While Al-Fatiha worked to combat homophobia within Muslim communities, it also felt it faced the challenge of seeking to avoid provoking an Islamophobic reaction among non-Muslims.

After the organization's founder, Faisal Alam, stepped down, subsequent leaders failed to sustain the organization. It began a process of legal dissolution in 2011.

Mama (American TV series)

Mama is a weekly CBS Television comedy-drama series that ran from July 1, 1949 until March 17, 1957. The series was based on the 1943 novel Mama's Bank Account by Kathryn Forbes, which was also adapted for the John Van Druten play (1944) and the subsequent film I Remember Mama (1948). It told the ongoing story of a loving Norwegian family living in San Francisco in the 1910s as seen through the eyes of the elder daughter, Katrin Hansen (Rosemary Rice). At the start of each episode, Katrin would be shown looking through the pages of the family album, with the opening narration:

"This old album makes me remember so many things in the past. San Francisco and the house on Steiner Street where I was born. It brings back memories of my cousins, aunts and uncles; all the boys and girls I grew up with. And I remember my family as we were then. My big brother Nels, my little sister Dagmar, and of course, Papa. But most of all, when I look back to those days so long ago, most of all, I remember ... Mama."

The show was originally broadcast live from CBS Studio 41 above the 42nd Street waiting room in Manhattan's Grand Central Terminal and was sponsored by Maxwell House and Post Cereal.

Characters and story
In addition to veteran stage actress Peggy Wood in the title role of Marta Hansen and Rosemary Rice as Katrin, the cast included Judson Laire as Papa and Dick Van Patten as brother Nels. The youngest child, Dagmar, was portrayed by Robin Morgan (who later became a radical feminist activist and poet) and then by Toni Campbell after Morgan left the show. Also featured were Ruth Gates (as Aunt Jenny), Carl Frank, Alice Frost, Malcolm Keen, Roland Winters, Kevin Coughlin and Patty McCormack. Gates was the only member of the cast to have played her role in the original Broadway production in 1944.

The series was different from the play and film in that there were only three children instead of four, with the character of daughter Christine being eliminated. Also, Mama had two sisters instead of three, consisting of Jenny and, occasionally, Trina – Sigrid was never seen or referred to. The character of Mama's Uncle Chris (played by Roland Winters) made a few appearances on the program, but the character of Mr. Hyde was deleted from the series. However, in a 1957 episode, "The Seventh Age", a character was featured with a different name - Mr. Carlysle (played by actor Bramwell Fletcher) - who was very similar to Mr. Hyde, in that he was a kind man, although a down and out, penniless, aging actor whom the Hansens took in as a boarder.

Although earlier incarnations of I Remember Mama had focused primarily on the relationship between Marta and Katrin, the television series typically dealt with a specific family member's problem and eventually drew the whole family into helping with its resolution.

The program aired live, and kinescope recordings were prepared for West Coast broadcasts. The popularity and high ratings of Mama prompted a national re-release of the I Remember Mama film in 1956. In some theaters, this reissue included a stage presentation of "Dish Night", a recreation of the dinnerware giveaways theaters held during the 1930s to attract ticket-buyers.

From its premiere in 1949 to 1956, Mama proved to be not only a ratings winner for CBS, but it also became a Friday night tradition when millions of families across America (including children already dressed for bed) gathered around the television set at 8:00PM to tune into another episode of the Hansen family.

From live to film
By the end of the 1955–56 season, even though the ratings for Mama were still respectable, viewership had decreased; Maxwell House, who co-sponsored the show, complained that not enough viewers were buying their coffee. This complaint led to CBS's cancellation of the show in July 1956. Carol Irwin, the show's producer, urged viewers to write the network demanding a return of the show. As a result, 175,000 letters poured into CBS, and the network immediately renewed the show. Unfortunately, with the prime-time schedule already filled, CBS scheduled Mama at 5:00pm on Sunday afternoons beginning December 16, 1956. This time, 26 episodes were filmed. The entire cast was reunited with the exception of actress Robin Morgan, who had portrayed the youngest daughter Dagmar beginning in 1950. Morgan opted not to continue with the role, wanting to pursue writing rather than acting. So, when Mama returned to CBS in December, 1956, the role of Dagmar was played by actress Toni Campbell. However, because of its less-than-desirable new time slot, Mama's ratings plummeted to the point of ultimately terminating its run three months later in March 1957, with several episodes left unaired.

Nevertheless, after eight years of playing Marta Hansen, Peggy Wood was honored with her first Emmy nomination as best actress in a drama series. Her first nomination was for her work on Mama during the 1952–1953 television season. (The series itself was nominated in 1951 for Best Dramatic Show.) It was during this season that the orchestral accordionist John Serry Sr. collaborated with Peggy Wood on the show. Even though she did not win on the night of the 1956–57 Emmy Awards, in admiration for the long-running success of Mama and the great affection the public felt for Wood, the Television Academy asked her to present the last award of the evening: Best Single Program of the Year, which went to Playhouse 90's Requiem for a Heavyweight.

In the fall of 1957, the complete 1956–57 filmed season of Mama aired on New York's WPIX-TV Channel 11. However, as the live (kinescoped) episodes are largely lost, Mama is unfamiliar to later generations of viewers. The aforementioned 26 filmed episodes from the last season of the show have occasionally been screened on public access stations.

In 1985, the Museum of Broadcasting in New York City presented a retrospective of Mama by arranging screenings of several of the live television broadcasts (1949–56), which had been donated by various sources, as well as a seminar featuring the three actors who played the Hansen children - Rosemary Rice (Katrin), Dick Van Patten (Nels), Robin Morgan (Dagmar) - and longtime director, Ralph Nelson. The Museum also discovered all 26 episodes of the filmed season of Mama (1956–57) in a CBS storage facility in New Jersey; not only did these episodes become part of the screening exhibition, but they were also added to the Museum's collection. Rice donated several kinescopes she kept from the show for the exhibition.

The opening and closing musical pieces were the "Holberg Suite" and "The Last Spring" by the Norwegian composer Edvard Grieg. Director-producer Ralph Nelson, himself of Norwegian descent, went on to direct the film Lilies of the Field.

Awards
The series received three Emmy nominations: one in 1951 for Best Dramatic Show and two for Peggy Wood's performance in 1953 and 1957.

Ratings
Mama was one of the first TV sitcoms to consistently finish in the Nielsen ratings' top 30 after they were instituted in the 1950–1951 season:

 * 1) 1950–1951: #10
 * 2) 1951–1952: #11
 * 3) 1952–1953: #18
 * 4) 1953–1954: #26

In the 1954–1955 seasons and afterward, Mama was not in the top 30 and its ratings data are not available.

Brompton Road

Brompton Road is a street located in the southern part from Knightsbridge and in the eastern part from Brompton in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea and partly the City of Westminster in London.

It starts from Knightsbridge Underground station and runs south-west through an extremely wealthy residential area until it reaches Egerton Gardens and the area to the east of South Kensington Underground station. It ends at what is popularly known as Brompton Cross, becoming Fulham Road, home of Chelsea Football Club.

There are 5-star hotels and many top restaurants and shops along the road. One of the most famous department stores in the world, Harrods, is located near the eastern end. Another major landmark along the road is the Church of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, commonly known as the Brompton Oratory. The Embassy of Uruguay is located at no. 150.

Brompton Road Underground station was halfway between Knightsbridge and South Kensington stations on the Piccadilly line, just east of the Brompton Oratory. It closed on 30 July 1934 due to a lack of traffic and following the opening of new entrances at Knightsbridge station.

Brompton Road is sometimes confused with Old Brompton Road which lies further to the west in South Kensington.

In the 1980s, a bomb unexpectedly went off just outside of Harrod's. A police man and some shoppers were killed. The IRA claimed responsibility, and that the bombing was unintended.

Scatology (album)

Scatology is the debut studio album by English experimental music group Coil. It was recorded at various studios in London during 1984 and produced by the band along with JG Thirlwell; the album features a prominent appearance of Stephen Thrower, who subsequently became an official member of Coil starting with the group's following album, Horse Rotorvator. Despite its title, the album focuses on alchemy, mainly an idea of turning base matter into gold. The record contains a wide array of cultural references, including to people such as Marquis de Sade, Alfred Jarry, Salvador Dalí, Charles Manson, and others.

Scatology was first released in 1985 (with a 1984 copyright date) on LP, by Force & Form and K.422 (Some Bizzare Records sublabel). It was reissued by Force & Form in 1988 on CD and later by Threshold House in 2001. Scatology’s sole single featured the extended remix of "Panic" with a cover version of "Tainted Love" on its B-side. Mainly positively received by critics, Scatology is considered to be one of Coil's essential releases, and moreover of the 1980s industrial scene.

Background and recording
Work on Scatology began in May 1984, soon after the release of Coil's debut EP How to Destroy Angels. Early on, a track entitled "The Sewage Worker's Birthday Party" was recorded during sessions of the abovementioned EP.

Recording sessions were held at Wave Studios, Aosis Studios and Bar Maldoror (all situated in London). Several tracks during these sessions were recorded, but were not released or metamorphosed into other tracks. The core duo of the band, including Peter Christopherson and John Balance, was extended with an appearance of J. G. Thirlwell of Foetus and Stephen Thrower, the latter of whom met Coil for the first time in August 1984.

Packaging
Different editions of the album featured a variety of packaging designs. For the original LP release, the initial black sun design was covered by a postcard with a motif of a swirling staircase known as the "Anal Staircase". The second edition had the "Sexual Architecture" postcard pasted on a random selection of copies with uncovered ones revealing the original black sun design.

The 1988 CD edition featured artwork depicting a naked pair of buttocks enclosed by an upside-down cross, with the original black sun underneath, seemingly inspired by Man Ray's Monument to Sade photography; the 2001 reissue features a revised artwork from the 1988 edition, with a slogan, "Stevo, Pay Us What You Owe Us!", referencing the band's dispute with Stevo Pearce.

COBISS

COBISS (short for Co-operative Online Bibliographic System and Services) is an organizational model of joining libraries into a national library information system with shared cataloguing, the COBIB union bibliographic catalogue database and local bibliographic databases of participating libraries, the COLIB database on libraries, the CONOR authority database, and with a number of other functions.

History
In 1987, a shared cataloguing system was adopted by the Association of the Yugoslav National Libraries as a common ground for the library information system and the system of scientific and technological information of Yugoslavia. In 1991, IZUM promoted COBISS as an upgrade of the shared cataloguing system. At that time, the same acronym started to be used also for the related software. As a result of Yugoslavia's disintegration, the libraries outside Slovenia resigned from the membership in the shared cataloguing system, although almost all of them later on gradually renewed the collaboration with IZUM, and are at present building their own autonomous information systems based on the COBISS platform with shared cataloguing in the COBISS.net network. The agreement on the establishment of the COBISS.net network and the free exchange of bibliographic records between the autonomous library information systems of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, North Macedonia, Slovenia, and Serbia, was signed in 2003. In 2006, the aforementioned agreement was also signed in the name of Bulgarian libraries by the Bulgarian National Library.

Old Brompton Road

Old Brompton Road is a major street in the South Kensington district of The Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, London.

It starts from South Kensington Underground station and runs south-west, through a mainly residential area, until it reaches West Brompton and the area around Earl's Court tube station. It runs through the SW5 and SW7 postcodes.

There are several 5-star hotels and upmarket shops along the road. One of the most famous auction houses in the world, Christie's, was located near the eastern end of the road at number 85.

The Coleherne pub (now The Pembroke ), located at number 261, became well known for being the stalking ground for three serial killers, Dennis Nilsen, Michael Lupo and Colin Ireland. It is also mentioned in the song 'Hanging Around' by The Stranglers, as well as in Armistead Maupin's Tales of the City book Babycakes.

Another landmark of the road is the Troubadour which has been a cultural hub for over fifty years. The coffee-house above, now a restaurant, has hosted the founding of Private Eye and the writing of many books, while the club below has been a venue for Bob Dylan and Adele.

The Drayton Arms is a Grade II listed pub and theatre at number 153.

The most famous resident was Diana, Princess of Wales before her 1981 engagement and subsequent marriage to Charles, Prince of Wales. She shared a flat with three others before subsequently moving on to Clarence House.

The road is sometimes confused with Brompton Road which lies further to the east, in the Brompton area of London, in the part better known as "Knightsbridge".

Enrico Arrigoni

Enrico Arrigoni (pseudonym: Frank Brand) (February 20, 1894 Pozzuolo Martesana, Province of Milan – December 7, 1986 New York City) was an Italian American individualist anarchist, a lathe operator, house painter, bricklayer, dramatist and political activist influenced by the work of Max Stirner.

Life and activism
He took the pseudonym "Brand" from a fictional character in one of Henrik Ibsen´s plays. In the 1910s, he became involved in anarchist and anti-war activism around Milan. From the 1910s until the 1920s, he participated in anarchist activities and popular uprisings in various countries including Switzerland, Germany, Hungary, Argentina and Cuba.

He lived from the 1920s onwards in New York City, and there he edited the individualist anarchist eclectic journal Eresia in 1928. He also wrote for other American anarchist publications such as L' Adunata dei refrattari, Cultura Obrera, Controcorrente and Intessa Libertaria. During the Spanish Civil War, he went to fight with the anarchists but was imprisoned and was helped in his release by Emma Goldman. Afterwards, Arrigoni became a longtime member of the Libertarian Book Club in New York City. He lived in the US as an illegal immigrant.

During the 1960s, he helped Cuban anarchists who were suffering the repression of the recently established Fidel Castro´s Marxist-Leninist regime. Along with the exiled Cuban anarchist Manuel Ferro, they "began a campaign in Italy itself...They turned to the most important Italian anarchist periodical, Umanità Nova (“New Humanity”), the official publication of the Federazione Anarchica Italiana, with the idea of counterbalancing the undeniable influence of L’Adunata in the Italian-American anarchist community, and more especially of responding to a series of pro-Cuban Revolution articles published in that weekly by Armando Borghi. Umanità Nova refused to publish Ferro's articles (translated by Arrigoni), saying that they didn't want to create a polemic. At that point, Arrigoni accused them of being in the pay of the Communists, and they eventually published Ferro's responses to Borghi. A few months later, Borghi — ignoring the points raised by Ferro — published a new defense of Castroism in L’Adunata, but Umanità Nova refused to publish Ferro's response to it." Arrigoni also translated articles written by Ferro which were published in the anarchist press of France, Italy, Mexico, and Argentina. According to Ferro, “In the majority of our milieus [these articles] were received with displeasure,” owing to the “enthusiasm” with which the Cuban Revolution had been received in them. But in other cases, anarchists rallied to the Cuban libertarian cause. Reconstruir (“To Reconstruct”) in Buenos Aires, whose publishing house, Colectivo, fully identified with the Cuban anarchists, published all of Ferro's works."

He died in New York City when he was 92 years old on December 7, 1986.

American anarchist writer Hakim Bey in 1991 talked about Arrigoni in this way: "Like the Italian Stirnerites (who influenced us through our late friend Enrico Arrigoni) we support all anti-authoritarian currents, despite their apparent contradictions."

Written works

 * The totalitarian nightmare (1975)
 * The lunacy of the Superman (1977)
 * Adventures in the country of the monoliths (1981)
 * Freedom: my dream First published by the Libertarian Book Club in 1937, reprinted by Western World Press in 1986, and LBC Books (Little Black Cart), March 2012.

Big Trak

BIG TRAK / bigtrak is a programmable toy electric vehicle created by Milton Bradley in 1979, resembling a futuristic Sci-Fi tank / utility vehicle. The original Big Trak was a six-wheeled (two-wheel drive) tank with a front-mounted blue "photon beam" headlamp, and a keypad on top. The toy could remember up to 16 commands, which it then executed in sequence. There also was an optional cargo trailer accessory, with the UK version being white to match its colour scheme; once hooked to the Bigtrak, this trailer could be programmed to dump its payload.

In 2010, BIG TRAK was relaunched in the form of a slightly modified replica (cosmetically very similar to the original UK bigtrak), produced under licence by Zeon Ltd. There is also a small dedicated Internet community who have reverse engineered the BIG TRAK and the Texas Instruments TMS1000 microcontroller inside it.

The original Milton Bradley US and UK versions
The US and UK/European versions were noticeably different. The US version was moulded in gray plastic and labelled "BIG TRAK", while the UK version was white and labelled "bigtrak" with a different keypad.

The US version had Revision C, D, and E motherboards, while the UK/European had Revision L and so on.

The Soviet Lunokhod and Planetokhod
In the Soviet Union, a clone was made under "Elektronika IM-11" designation. The early production version was named Lunokhod after the Lunokhod programme. It featured an obstruction sensor disguised as a plastic front bumper, which would stop the program when the toy got stuck. However, there was no provision for an accessory, and its motion sensor was based on a cheaper reed switch instead of an opto-isolator. A later version, named "Planetokhod," additionally featured a shootable rotor blade as an accessory, LED head and rear lamps, and the on/off switch was relocated to the rear side. A Soviet popular science journal Nauka i Zhizn published a detailed article on the IM-11.

The Zeon Ltd replica
In 2010, Zeon Ltd released a replica of the original toy. The colour and graphic scheme are based on the UK version and all stickers have been redrawn as a direct copy of the original artwork. However, the replica differs in several ways from the original. 1) The circular hatch on the original was removable, to allow access to the 9v battery powering the electronics. On the replica, this hatch is fixed shut as the 9v battery is no longer used. 2) The main electronics circuit board is completely different, with surface-mount components and a different processor chip and software. 3) Motor rotation is detected by rotating magnets fitted to the motors, and hall-effect detectors on the circuit board - the original used optical detectors. 4) The original used an incandescent light bulb; the replica uses an LED. 5) The original used 4 x 'D' cell batteries and a 9v PP3 battery; the replica just uses 3 x 'D' cells. Since the initial release of the replica, a second version has been introduced, the differences being in the test program and the power switch. Version 1 has a single-position power switch, either on or off, whereas version 2 has a 3-position power switch, centre off, forward for use on carpets, back for use on smooth floors. This affects the stall-detection in the electronics, as the original version seems to have been designed to run on smooth floors, and easily stalls when attempting to turn on carpet. The test program for version 1 runs the unit forwards, pauses, then runs backwards; in version 2, the model runs forward, then turns 180 degrees, runs forward again, then backs up a little.

The Bigtrak Rover
A new model, the Bigtrak Rover, is scheduled for release by Zeon Ltd in late 2014. This model is based on the Junior chassis. "Robotics go back to the future with the retro looks of smash-hit 80s toy Bigtrak working together with high-tech smartphone technology. Now you can have your very own mini Bigtrak robot controlled by your smart device. Rover's on-board camera streams live video from his field of view, directly to your computer, tablet or phone. Bigtrak Rover uses contactless technology to go exploring. He will go forwards, backwards and spin both clockwise and anti-clockwise. Cones are included for orienteering fun. Bigtrak Rover can be controlled by simply downloading a free App from the App Store or Android Marketplace and then follows commands from your iPhone, Android device, PC, Mac or tablet. Bigtrak Rover does not draw any power from your smartphone, and does not require Bluetooth or Wi-Fi connectivity."

The Bigtrak XTR
The Bigtrak XTR was intended for release in 2012 but has not yet launched. It is an updated version of Bigtrak, its form based on the Bigtrak Jr with the 'cockpit' modified to be much smaller and streamlined. It can be controlled remotely using a computer, iOS, or Android device. The controls for the iOS / Android version allow for either tilting control or touch control.

A foldable tray hides and protects the keypad from accidental input. The tray also functions as a cargo area that can detect an object placed on it. The Bigtrak XTR has two ports for optional accessories, one on the top and one on the front. The accessories are: Camera (XTRcam), computer communication module (XTRCom) that also allows another accessory to be plugged to it, light (LightBar), Infrared emitter (IRGun), and projectiles (XTRMissile). The camera can track an object.

The Dubreq desktop version, Bigtrak Jr
Dubreq Ltd under license from Zeon Ltd has released a 190mm long desktop version of the Bigtrak toy called "Bigtrak Jr". Like the original Bigtrak from the 1970s, it has an active accessory port for accessories including a rocket launcher (as an active accessory) and a drinks can carrier (as a passive accessory).

Power
The original Big Trak uses a 9 volt battery to power its microcontroller, while the 4 D cell batteries are used to power its electric motors. This electrical isolation helps prevent any electrical noise from the motor, speaker, and lamp from resetting or interfering with the microcontroller. The re-release Zeon version uses only 3 D cell batteries to power both its microcontroller and electric motors, while the Bigtrak Jr version only needs 3 AA batteries to power both its microcontroller and electric motors.

The original optional cargo trailer uses a single D cell battery to power its electrical motor, both for driving and dumping operations, while the optional rocket launcher accessory for the Bigtrak Jr uses 3 AA batteries.

Programming the Big Trak
Various commands can be given, such as: "go forward 5 lengths", "pause", "turn 15 minutes right (90 Degrees)", "fire phaser", and so on. There is also a "repeat" instruction allowing simple loop to be performed, but the language is not Turing complete, lacking branching instructions; its programming also resembles the principles of turtle graphics from Logo programming language.

The Big Trak also lacks any sort of sensor input other than the wheel sensors, though recent re-released versions do have the ability to accept optional external input.

Programmable keypad
There were no LED displays or ways to display program instructions, beyond actually running the program, which was done by pressing "GO". Each command inputted will be added next to the previous command inputted, allowing the operator to build a list of commands up to 16 commands.

All programming to BigTrak was done through the keypad shown here:
 * Forward/Backwards: Move forward or backwards in units of body length
 * Left/Right: Turn left or right in units of roughly 1/60th of a full rotation
 * HOLD: Pause in 1/10 of second time units (UK version; P: Pause)
 * FIRE: Fire the light bulb "laser" (UK; Photon Symbol)
 * CLR: Clear the program (UK; CM: Clear Memory)
 * CLS: Clear Last Step (UK; CE: Clear Entry)
 * RPT: Repeat a number of steps (primitive loop) (UK; x2: Repeat key)
 * TEST: Run short test program
 * CK: Check last instruction (UK; Tick symbol)
 * Out: Dump optional trailer accessory
 * In: Reserved for future expansion (UK; missing. Disabled or not implemented on most if not all BigTraks)

In and Out commands
The Bigtrak is capable of communicating with an optional accessory. It uses an electrical 3.5 mm jack for its communication. Older bigger Bigtrak can also use a Bigtrak Jr optional accessory with an adaptor. However the newer Bigtrak XTR uses a different type of communication port, therefore it is not compatible with any previous Bigtrak accessory.

The Out command is used in the 1970s/1980s Bigtrack to dump the cargo on its optional cargo trailer accessory. While in the modern 2010s Bigtrack, it is used to do things such as shooting missiles.

However, the hardware on the late 1970s and early 1980s Bigtraks does not seem to be capable of processing any In command.

Computer control
In 1981 Steve Ciarcia published in his BYTE column "Ciarcia's Circuit Cellar" an article on controlling Big Trak with a personal computer and radio interface, turning it into a home robot.

Meanwhile, in the 2000s and 2010s, many people have hacked the Bigtrak by allowing it to be controlled with modern microcontrollers such as the Arduino, or even a single board Personal Computer such as the Raspberry Pi. The Bigtrak XTR is capable of being fitted with a communication module to wirelessly communicate with a computer.

Big Trak in psychological research
In the early 1980s, the psychology of science community led by the laboratory of David Klahr at Carnegie Mellon University adopted the Big Trak as a research vehicle for the study of Instructionless learning, Scientific discovery, View application, Cognitive development, and Dual Space Search.

Reception
Games magazine included Big Trak in their "Top 100 Games of 1981", finding it a "great challenge is to program Big Trak to run through an obstacle course, without pacing off the distances".

Lawsuit
In Episode 827 Act One of This American Life, Peter Ocko tells the story of coming up with the idea of Big Trak when his father worked at Milton Bradley, and then the lawsuit they filed against Milton Bradley.

Hull York Medical School

Hull York Medical School (HYMS) is a medical school in England which took its first intake of students in 2003. It was opened as a part of the British Government's attempts to train more doctors, along with Brighton and Sussex Medical School, Peninsula Medical School and University of East Anglia Medical School.

History
The early history of medical education in Hull and York goes back to the three following institutions: Hull Medical School (1831), York Medical Society (1832) and the York Medical School (1834). Notable doctors associated with the York school included John Hughlings Jackson (in whose honour the modern medical school building at the University of York is named), Daniel Hack Tuke, Thomas Laycock (physiologist), James Atkinson (surgeon), and Sir Jonathan Hutchinson. It is thought that the York school closed in the 1860s.

The founding of a medical school as part of the University of Hull was considered in the Report of the Royal Commission on Medical Education 1965–68 (Todd Report) (published 1968), but the idea was not thought viable until the Humber Bridge was completed, as it would enable students to travel to placements in South Lincolnshire.

Teaching
The medical school has 156 places for 2018 and receives around 1,200 applications each year. Of the successful applicants each year, half are based at the University of Hull and the other half are based at the University of York for the first two years of their course. In 2017, the medical school was ranked 17th in the UK by The Guardian University Subject Guide and 17th by the Complete University Guide 2018. For 2019 these rankings fell to 30th and 26th respectively.

applicants are required to sit the UCAT admissions test.

Students spend the two years in phase one at their academic bases (either Hull or York). Phase two consists of rotation around York, Hull, Scunthorpe, Grimsby, Scarborough and Northallerton/Middlesbrough. In the final year of the course (phase three), students essentially take on the role of a 'junior' pre-registration house officer and are also able to carry out an 'elective' period overseas. This is a common feature in most UK medical curricula. The school's first international students began their studies in September 2006.

Hull York Medical School course uses problem-based learning. There is an emphasis on early and sustained clinical experience in General Practices, hospitals and community settings.

The medical school allows students to intercalate a BSc or master's degree in various subjects, such as anatomy, biology and ethics.

The medical degree curriculum is five years long and on completion students graduate with an MB BS degree (Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery).

Campuses, NHS Trusts and Hospitals
Hull York Medical School is based at two university sites, the University of Hull and University of York, and is partnered with 3 Acute NHS Trusts and 3 Mental Health Trusts.

The Man on the Roof

The Man on the Roof (Mannen på taket) is a 1976 Swedish police procedural-thriller film directed by Bo Widerberg. It is based on the 1971 novel The Abominable Man by Maj Sjöwall and Per Wahlöö. The film stars Carl-Gustaf Lindstedt, Sven Wollter, Thomas Hellberg and Håkan Serner.

Widerberg's direction was inspired by the 1971 American film The French Connection, and Widerberg would make one more crime film in 1984: The Man from Majorca.

The film won two Guldbagge Awards in 1977, for Best Film and Best Actor (Håkan Serner).

Plot
A veteran Swedish policeman named Stig Nyman is brutally murdered, bludgeoned and eviscerated with a bayonet while being treated for a secret illness at a Stockholm hospital. The investigation that follows is led by pragmatic veteran Martin Beck and uninspiring detective Einar Rönn. It turns out that the murdered man was known among colleagues for abusing his police privileges and brutalizing civilians. Although his colleagues generally disliked Nyman and had been aware of his behavior, the police force's esprit de corps had suppressed complaints about him and prevented any reprisals.

The investigation proceeds, and finally Beck and his team find a trail that leads to the murderer, who turns out to be an ex-policeman named Eriksson. Eriksson's wife Marja had diabetes and went out to buy insulin before passing out from her illness; Nyman found her unconscious on the street and instead of bringing in medical treatment, had her arrested for public intoxication and placed in a holding cell. She fell into a coma and died, and Eriksson blamed the police for the tragedy. Now, some years later, he has become a social misfit and the authorities are in the process of removing his daughter Malin from his custody.

As Beck and his team close in on Eriksson he climbs up on the roof of the apartment building where he lives in central Stockholm, bringing with him both an automatic rifle and a sharpshooter's rifle. He starts to fire at any policeman and police vehicle he can spot, killing one uniformed officer and seriously wounding another. The two cops who are in the middle of Eriksson's rampage are Dets. Kollberg (a married husband who has a progressive approach to his job) and Larsson (a macho hothead who doesn't like Kollberg specifically or the top Stockholm PD brass in general but who is a tough and smart cop). Larsson suffers a non-fatal wound from shrapnel hit by one of Eriksson's shots, and they get out of the area by disguising themselves as doctors.

When the police commissioner decides to bring in the anti-terrorist units, including two police helicopters, Eriksson shoots up one of the helicopters such that it crashes on a crowded plaza, Odenplan, near the building where he resides. Beck tries an individual initiative, climbing to the roof on a flimsy external ladder, but is shot in the chest, left severely injured and bleeding on a ledge leading to the roof until Kollberg bravely rescues him and gets him to a safe apartment along the building's facade. A group that includes Larsson, Hult (a stone-faced officer who was one of the few members of the force who was close friends to Nyman, and who resolves to avenge his death), special operations soldiers and a civilian volunteer with his own firearms on hand use explosives to blast to the roof where Eriksson is hiding. He stops them and is about to shoot Larsson when the civilian fires a shot that slams into Eriksson's shoulder and leaves him disabled. Hult rages towards Eriksson but only hits him once in the face before he's pulled away by other officers who arrest the sniper. Larsson tells the civilian he let him take the shot because a cop shooting another cop would be a whole other problem set, and bluntly says the civilian will have to answer questions about the unlicensed gun he had on hand. Eriksson is left staring into the sky as the movie ends.

 * Gunnel Wadner as Mrs. Beck

Production
The actor Carl-Gustaf Lindstedt was picked for the part as the policeman Beck after Wideberg had seen him with a serious face in a talk show not knowing he was on air. Previously, Lindstedt was mostly known for roles in comedy films.

Filming took place between 11 December 1975 and 30 April 1976, using a budget of 3.9 million SEK. Bo Widerberg didn't like the fake theater blood so pigs blood was used.

Reception
The critics were very positive and especially praised the dialogue. Around 750,000 people attended the film in Sweden, making it the most successful film produced by the Swedish Film Institute until Fanny and Alexander was released in 1982. The film was selected as the Swedish entry for the Best Foreign Language Film at the 50th Academy Awards, but was not accepted as a nominee.

SSV Ulm 1846

SSV Ulm 1846 FUSSBALL e.V., commonly known as SSV Ulm 1846 or SSV Ulm, is a German football club based in Ulm, Baden-Württemberg. SSV Ulm 1846 FUSSBALL was formed on 7 March 2009 as new independent club through the separation of the football department from the present-day multi-sports club SSV Ulm 1846 e.V. The club will play in 2. Bundesliga in the 2024-25 season after promotion from 3. Liga in 2023–24, finishing first place.

The club's greatest success has been promotion to the Bundesliga in 1998–99, where it played for just one season. Ulm has also spent eight seasons in the 2. Bundesliga between 1979–80 and 2000–01.

History
The older of the two predecessor sides was founded on 12 April 1846 as Turnerbund Ulm. They had an on-again, off-again relationship with Turnverein Ulm through the 1850s. The football department became independent in 1926 as Ulmer Rasensport Verein and in 1939 would merge with Ulmer Fußball Verein, and their old clubmates in TB Ulm and TV Ulm, to form TSG Ulm 1846. In 1968, RSVgg Ulm became part of TSG Ulm 1846.

1. Schwimm- und Sportverein Ulm was formed in 1928.

TSG Ulm 1846
The football department of Turnerbund Ulm became independent in 1926 as Ulmer Rasensportverein and in 1939 would merge with Ulmer Fußballverein, and their old club mates in TB Ulm and TV Ulm, to form TSG Ulm 1846. Throughout this time the club played in local competition before joining the Gauliga Württemberg, one of sixteen top flight divisions formed in the 1933 reorganisation of German football under the Third Reich, for the 1939–40 season. The club played there until the end of World War II. After the war they began play in the 2. Oberliga Süd (II) and did well enough to make occasional advances to the Oberliga Süd (I) for short stays before falling back again. In 1963, with the formation of the Bundesliga, Germany's new top-flight professional league, TSG Ulm 1846 found itself in the Regionalliga Süd (II) for a couple of seasons before slipping to tier III and IV level play. In 1968, RSVgg Ulm became part of TSG Ulm 1846.

1. SSV Ulm
1. Spiel- und Sportverein Ulm was formed in 1928 and, after two seasons in the Bezirksliga Bayern, joined the Gauliga Württemberg in 1933, well before their future partner, where they earned just mid-table finishes. After the war and leading up to their union with TSG 1846, they played as a third or fourth division side. Finally, in 1970, 1. SSV Ulm merged with TSG 1846 to form SSV Ulm 1846.

SSV Ulm 1846
At the time of the merger. both clubs were playing football in the tier III Amateurliga Württemberg and would continue to do so for a nearly a decade. In 1980, the combined side advanced to the 2. Bundesliga Süd and would spend six of the next ten years playing at that level where, except for a fifth-place finish in 1982, their results were well down the table. After another decade in the level III Amateur Oberliga Baden-Württemberg and Regionalliga Süd, 1846 made an unexpected breakthrough after just one season in the 2. Bundesliga with a third-place finish that led to the club's promotion to the top-flight Bundesliga for the 1999–2000 season. Even though the issue was not decided until the last day of the season, Ulm could do no better than a sixteenth-place finish and returned to the second division. The 2000–01 season was an unqualified disaster for the club: they could manage only another sixteenth-place finish and were sent back down to the Regionalliga Süd (III). They were then denied a licence over the chaotic state of their finances which plunged the club down to the fifth tier Verbandsliga Württemberg. Afterwards Ulm worked their way back, to the Oberliga Baden-Württemberg (IV) in 2002, and the Regionalliga in 2008.

SSV Ulm 1846 Fußball
Following the 2009 European football betting scandal, the club released three allegedly involved players, Davor Kraljević, Marijo Marinović and Dinko Radojević. In January 2011, the club was declared insolvent, and the results of the 2010–11 season were declared void. The club was relegated to the Oberliga Baden-Württemberg but immediately won the 2011–12 title, finishing nine points clear of second-placed VfR Mannheim and earning promotion to the new Regionalliga Südwest.

In May 2014, SSV Ulm 1846 was once again close to insolvency, for the third time in 13 years, requiring €420,000 in financial support before the end of the month to ensure survival. The club eventually entered administration and was relegated back to the Oberliga. After two seasons, SSV Ulm 1846 was promoted to the Regionalliga in May 2016.

On 28 May 2023, SSV Ulm 1846 secured promotion to 3. Liga for the first time from 2023 to 2024, after defeating Barockstadt Fulda-Lehnerz 5–0 and becoming champion of the Regionalliga Südwest.

On 4 May 2024, SSV Ulm 1846 were crowned 3. Liga champions and earned back-to-back promotion to 2. Bundesliga for the 2024–25 season and the first time since 2000–01 season, after defeating Viktoria Köln 2–0.

The recent season-by-season performance of the club:

 * With the introduction of the Regionalligas in 1994 and the 3. Liga in 2008 as the new third tier, below the 2. Bundesliga, all leagues below dropped one tier. In 2012, the number of Regionalligas was increased from three to five with all Regionalliga Süd clubs except the Bavarian ones entering the new Regionalliga Südwest.

Fans and controversies
In the fanscene there are right-wing extremist tendencies and right-wing hooligans. In May 2019, several extremists attacked a Roma family. Four of the perpetrators had connections to the SSV Ulm fan scene. Despite a trial, the perpetrators were initially not banned from the stadium, which is why the club's management was heavily criticized by the Central Council of German Sinti and Roma.

"To ignore this inhuman crime simply stunned us. Imagine if the same incident had occurred against the Jewish minority, then different measures would have been taken by the club's management. The Holocaust clearly also includes the annihilation of half a million Sinti and Roma in Nazi occupied Europe. And the responsibility of a club management must be the same here." - Romani Rose, chairman, Central Council of German Sinti and Roma.

In addition, there are group photos on which, among other things, the Nazi salute is shown.

After his defeat in 1871 by John Thomas Grange, he ran for the Lennox seat in the Canadian House of Commons in 1872 as an independent, losing to Richard John Cartwright, formerly a Conservative, now a Liberal. In 1878, he campaigned on behalf of Cartwright. Stevenson died in Napanee, Ontario in 1884.

Linguaphile and Web Developer at (and graduate from) the University of North Texas, exchanged at Kansai Gaidai University in Hirakata, Japan. Started tinkering around while bored at work, and joined after doing a major overhaul of Air France Flight 296. That's me... 68.185.205.73.

Contributions
Air France Flight 296 - read every account of every civil aviation accident in history while trying to overcome my fear of flying before my flight to Japan. (It worked.) The story of this flight struck me, so I overhauled it to tell the story.

Vicomte de Rochambeau - ugly, but it's there. I dunno why... I wasn't particularly interested in the article, I just wanted it to not be stuck on to the end of Comte de Rochambeau.

Solanum brevicaule - I was reading the history of potatoes, noticed that they kept referring to "Solanum brevicaule complex," but there was no article for it. Now there is.

 * Hello, I've expanded the lead a bit further. Please feel free to tinker with it if you wish! I might have been close to accepting it in its earlier form but the previous reviewer is very experienced and I would trust their judgement on the issue. A lead should briefly summarise the major points of the article and more detail and references contained within the 'body'. Cheers. Eagleash (talk) 21:01, 16 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Also, it would be beneficial if the page contained the date of death, which should be the opening statement in the lead (after the Japanese translation in the form {1900–XXXX) (with an endash) with the place of birth shown separately. Eagleash (talk) 21:07, 16 December 2018 (UTC)

Breast euphemisms
Simply list of slang euphemisms. No real content. JLaTondre 13:04, 28 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete (changed from Reserved). And no pictures. It is also now blanked which meant a trawl thourgh history, all this must be here somewhere already, surely, I've not trawled slang so unsure where it would be.
 * I'm happy with TLE's def here, unless anyone wants to points to a word there we haven't already got that fits "In some special cases an article about an essential piece of slang may be appropriate". Alf 18:57, 28 August 2005 (UTC)
 * And there's still no pictures.Alf 18:59, 28 August 2005 (UTC)

 * Comment - It looks as if the article may be unencyclopedic. However, it was blanked because the user who nominated it for Vfd blanked it. I find the blanking and implying it was already blanked to be rather dubious. --Mysidia (talk) 15:58, 28 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Sorry, the blanking was a mistake on my part. I'm more used to CV than VfD. Thanks for correcting that. If you're refering to my comment of "No real content" as "implying it was already blanked" that was not my intent. A list of slang terms has no real content that is suitable for an enclopedia. Real content might be history, a discussion of the language evolution along with sexual morals, etc... JLaTondre 17:25, 28 August 2005 (UTC)

 * Delete The fact that it's a list of slang, rather than an entry for a single piece of slang, does not change the fact that it violates WP:NOT Sec. 1.2.3's clear and appropriate prohibition on trying to make articles that are slang or idiom usage guides. For that matter, Sec. 1.2.2 is "No lists of such definitions" in reference to WP:NOT A Dictionary.  The Literate Engineer 16:03, 28 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge with Body parts slang. Al 16:08, August 28, 2005 (UTC)

 * might seem less stupid, if a few of these , were used every so often

 * Delete. These are not euphemisms, they're slang terms. I also wonder how many of these have any currecy at all and how many were made up for this little project. Denni ☯ 19:20, 2005 August 28 (UTC)
 * Delete. Obscure slang. Andrew pmk | Talk 21:49, 28 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete like aspirins on an ironing board.  ral  315  17:42, August 29, 2005 (UTC)

 * Wiktionary? 132.205.3.20 21:05, 29 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Redirect and possibly merge to body parts slang. -Sean Curtin 01:19, August 30, 2005 (UTC)
