Talk:Confessionalism (religion)

Definition
Vardion, this definition is essentially one of fundamentalism - definitely more narrow than the confessing movement in the mainline churches, and probably more narrow than the evangelical link as well. I am therefore removing these links, at least for the time being. Pollinator 02:52, August 21, 2005 (UTC)

 * I don't really know much about the confessing movement, and so simply assumed that they were linked to confessionalism as I understood it. Sorry for my error. Perhaps you could add something to this article to explain what the differences are? -- Vardion 03:05, 21 August 2005 (UTC)

Possible source

 * Quote from "Lutherans of New York" https://archive.org/details/lutheransofnewyo00wenn p. 41
 * "The tide of confessionalism which had been rising
 * in Europe for half a century touched America in the
 * forties [1840s] and reached a high water mark during the
 * period under review [1866-1900]. The question of subscription
 * to the symbols of the Book of Concord became the
 * chief subject of discussion among our theologians."

Confessionalism in Christianity
The entire article is already about Confessionalism in Christianity, so I changed the intext title in the lead to "Confessionalism in Christianity" to be more accurate about what is actually stated in the article. I hope someone changes the official title to match and create a different article for Religious Confessionalism in a general sense. 66.44.114.72 (talk) 21:28, 30 January 2023 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

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

Talk:WSTR-TV

Untitled
It might be useful if, in the history section, someone could put the years when the station changed its call letters and network affiliations. -- Grev -- Talk 02:53, August 21, 2005 (UTC)

Star Tower
Does this station broadcast from Star Tower? If I recall correctly, the signage at the tower's base is similar to WSTR's old "Star 64" logo. – Minh Nguyễn (talk, contribs) 07:07, 27 March 2006 (UTC)

Former logos
It doesn't make much sense to have a "gallery" containing just two logos – fair use images to boot. Besides, this isn't Wikimedia Commons; Wikipedia articles contain images to illustrate text, not the other way around. – Minh Nguyễn (talk, contribs) 06:45, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

MyNetworkTV affiliation
Akmarch gave this blog post as a source in stating that WSTR will drop its MyNetworkTV affiliation. I think the blogger misread this Enquirer article:

 * My Network TV said it will essentially get out of the business of presenting original programming except for professional wrestling, a sign of how the economy is hurting the television business.

 * The network, seen on WSTR-TV (Channel 64) here, was created in 2006 for stations after the old WB and UPN networks combined to form the CW. It is owned by News Corp., parent company for Fox Broadcasting, Fox News, FX and MySpace.

 * Jon Lawhead, Channel 64 general manager, declined to comment about how his station's programming would change.

 * "We don't yet fully know what it entails. We should know something in the next day or two," Lawhead said.

As you can see, the article was reporting on MyNetworkTV, not WSTR in particular. They just asked the station for a reaction. So I'm removing Akmarch's addition.

– Minh Nguyễn (talk, contribs) 21:06, 24 February 2009 (UTC)

W22DE/W66AQ
I'm not sure if W22DE (former W66AQ) in Dayton is broadcasting on any channel now that WCPO has moved to RF 22. When it was broadcasting post-digital transition, it was a simulcast of WRGT 45.2 "MyTV Dayton", not a satellite of WSTR.

Based on a mistaken reading of a poorly worded website, another Wikipedia user has associated W22DE with WWRD-LP in Dayton. It definitely shouldn't be there, although I'm not totally comfortable with associating it with WSTR. It would appear it's still considered a translator for WSTR. Does anyone have any idea what plans Sinclair has or had for W22DE. It probably should be referenced somewhere. Perhaps at WRGT? Chaswmsday (talk) 20:07, 21 December 2010 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Chaswmsday (talk • contribs) 20:01, 21 December 2010 (UTC)

DTV transition date
Article claims that all Sinclair stations shut down their analog signals on the original DTV transition date, February 17, 2009. WTTE in Columbus, OH did. However, others transitioned on the later date, June 12, 2009, e.g. Columbus' WSYX and Dayton's WRGT-TV. Dayton's WKEF maintained analog nightlight service for two weeks after June 12. --Chaswmsday (talk) 13:13, 17 March 2011 (UTC)

W22DE - 2013 License Renewal
According to the 2013 License Renewal Appication filed with the FCC, W22DE is still on the air. (See Section V, Question 2a.) They have not filed for a construction permit to convert the station to digital. Just an educated guess, but I'm guessing that Sinclair continues to operate the translator in order to interfere with the WCPO signal, blocking the WCPO signal and making WKEF the default ABC affiliate where the signal is blocked. And I am also assuming that they can legally continue to broadcast because this is an analog signal much like analog and digital signals would run into each other during the period leading to transition to DTV Only signals?

Again, these are just educated guesses, but an application stating to the FCC that your signal is still on means that your signal is still on!

Here is the license renewal application:

Dawson Community Airport

Dawson Community Airport is five miles northwest of Glendive, in Dawson County, Montana, United States. The airport has one airline, subsidized by the Essential Air Service program.

The Federal Aviation Administration says this airport had 211 passenger boardings (enplanements) in calendar year 2008, 243 in 2009 and 427 in 2010. The National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2011–2015 categorized it as a general aviation airport (the commercial service category requires at least 2,500 enplanements per year).

History
The airport opened around 1970, replacing the airport on the east side of the river just north of I-94. Northwest Airlines served Glendive from about 1933 until 1936 as one of multiple stops on a route between Seattle and Chicago. Frontier Airlines started flights to the old airport in 1954; its Twin Otters stopped flying out of the new airport in 1980.

Scheduled air service temporarily ceased on March 8, 2008, when Big Sky Airlines ended operations in bankruptcy. Great Lakes Airlines was given USDOT approval to take over Essential Air Service (EAS) and flights began in 2009. Service is currently provided under EAS contract by Cape Air.

Facilities
Dawson Community Airport covers 413 acres (167 ha) at an elevation of 2,458 feet (749 m). It has two asphalt runways: 12/30 is 5,704 by 100 feet (1,739 x 30 m) and 2/20 is 3,002 by 60 feet (915 x 18 m).

In the year ending June 5, 2019, the airport had 5,880 aircraft operations, averaging 113 per week: 52% air taxi, 47% general aviation, and <1% military. 14 aircraft were then based at the airport, all single-engine.

Colville National Forest

The Colville National Forest is a U.S. National Forest located in northeastern Washington state. It is bordered on the west by the Okanogan–Wenatchee National Forest and the Kaniksu National Forest to the east. The forest also borders Little Pend Oreille National Wildlife Refuge and the Lake Roosevelt National Recreation Area.

As of October 2020, the Colville National Forest now includes the Tonasket Ranger District, which was previously part of the Okanogan–Wenatchee National Forest.

Geography
The forest encompasses a mountainous area consisting of the Kettle River and Selkirk mountain ranges, and the upper reaches of the Columbia River. The mountain ranges and forest are located mostly within the Columbia Mountains, which are part of the western foothills of the Rocky Mountains.

The forest has a total area of 1.5 million acres. A 1993 Forest Service study estimated that the extent of old growth in the Forest was 212488 acre. In descending order of forestland area it is located in parts of Ferry, Pend Oreille, Okanogan, Stevens counties. The forest headquarters is located in Colville, Washington. There are local ranger district offices located in Kettle Falls, Metaline Falls, Newport, Republic, and Tonasket. Most of the Salmo-Priest Wilderness lies within the forest, while its southeastern portion extends into Kaniksu National Forest. With the inclusion of the Tonasket Ranger District, portions of the Pasayten Wilderness are within the forest.

Fauna
Wildlife include grizzly and black bears, wolf packs, bighorn sheep, cougars, bald eagles, Canada lynx, moose, beavers, loons, and up until recently, the last remaining herd of caribou in the lower 48 US states.

Other protected areas
The Pacific Northwest National Scenic Trail passes through the Colville National Forest. It enters the forest on the east side within the Salmo-Priest Wilderness, crosses the Pend Oreille River at Boundary Dam, passes through Leadpoint and Northport, then traverses the Kettle Range and exits the Colville near Republic. The Sullivan Lake Trail, designated a National Recreation Trail in 1978, runs 4.3 miles between two campgrounds in the forest.

Why is this not the southernmost point of European Union??? Even France has more southern territories such as the Kerguelen islands.11:42, 19 June 2016 (UTC)Asilah1981 (talk)
 * The Falkland Islands, the Kerguelen islands and a lot of other remote places connected to member countries, are not part of the European Union. The European Union directives and regulations are not valid there. French Guiana, Réunion and a few more remote areas are part of the European Union mainly because they are part of the main member countries without any local independence.

Territories
Why does the list under the header "Including overseas territories" exclude Territories like Terres arctiques et australes françaises that are marked as Territories on the map? Are there two different definitions of territories, or is the list wrong, or the header wrong? 90.163.229.233 (talk) 19:36, 20 March 2019 (UTC)

Untitled
The following comment was added to the article. I moved it here

If you read The Frontiersman it will tell you that Simon Kenton didn't steal the cannon but that he and his partner tipped over the canoe carrying the cannon across the Ohio River on Birds march out of the Kentucky lands, next time read the book before commenting on it being legit or not.

--Blue Tie 13:13, 12 February 2007 (UTC)

the two cannon brought by the british were hidden by them {See note 44}-Kenton did not capture one See note # 43 see http://www.walthertree.com/BritishInvasionofKentucky.html — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.49.242.65 (talk) 14:44, 10 August 2014 (UTC)

Eckert
It it wasn't for Eckert hardly anyone would know of this history, but everyobody likes to take their jabs at him because a few facts might be jumbled. There's bound to be some discrepancies in a work like the Frontiersmen, but to focus on them strikes me as petty.

Ouray City Hall and Walsh Library

The Ouray City Hall and Walsh Library are a pair of buildings in downtown Ouray, Colorado, United States. Located on 6th Avenue between 3rd and 4th Streets, they are together listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

History
Constructed in 1900, the city hall was built as a miniature replica of Independence Hall in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Thomas Walsh, founder of the Camp Bird Mine, donated a library which occupied the second floor. The structure burned down in January 1950. It was listed on the Register in 1975. A restoration effort in 1976 as part of the city of Ouray Centennial failed, but another restoration effort led by then-mayor Bill Fries (C.W. McCall) succeeded in restoring the historic facade in 1988.

Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne and Chicago Railway

The Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne and Chicago Railway was a major part of the Pennsylvania Railroad system, extending the PRR west from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, via Fort Wayne, Indiana, to Chicago, Illinois. It included the current Norfolk Southern-owned Fort Wayne Line east of Crestline, Ohio, to Pittsburgh, and the Fort Wayne Secondary, owned by CSX, from Crestline west to Tolleston in Gary, Indiana. CSX leased its entire portion in 2004 to the Chicago, Fort Wayne and Eastern Railroad (CFE). The remaining portion of the line from Tolleston into Chicago is now part of the Norfolk Southern's Chicago District, with a small portion of the original PFW&C trackage abandoned in favor of the parallel lines of former competitors which are now part of the modern NS system.

History
The Ohio and Pennsylvania Railroad was chartered in Ohio on February 24 and in Pennsylvania on April 11, 1848, to build from Allegheny City (annexed by Pittsburgh in 1907) west to Crestline, Ohio, on the Cleveland, Columbus and Cincinnati Railroad. It was organized on June 15 with William Robinson Jr. as president, and construction began on July 4, 1849. The first section, from Allegheny City west to New Brighton, opened July 30, 1851. Extensions opened to New Galilee on October 22 and Enon Valley November 19. On November 27, 1851, a section between Salem and Alliance, Ohio, was completed, not yet connected to the rest. On December 8, the east section was extended west to East Palestine, Ohio, with a stagecoach transfer provided for through travel. Further sections opened January 3, 1852, west to Columbiana, and on January 6 the gap between Columbiana and Salem was filled. In conjunction with the Cleveland and Pittsburgh Railroad, connecting at Alliance, a through line was provided between Cleveland and Pittsburgh. On March 11, 1852, an extension west to Massillon was opened with an excursion. On August 10, 1852, a further extension from Massillon west to Wooster opened. The line west to Mansfield was finished April 8, 1853, and the full line to Crestline opened April 11. With this it formed part of a through line to Cincinnati via the Cleveland, Columbus and Cincinnati Railroad.

Work began on August 16, 1854, on the Fort Wayne Railroad Bridge over the Allegheny River to extend the O&P into Pittsburgh to connect with the Pennsylvania Railroad. The bridge opened September 22, 1857, with a temporary station at Penn Street and Tenth Street.

The Ohio and Indiana Railroad was chartered in Ohio on March 26, 1850, and in Indiana on January 15, 1851, to extend the line west to Fort Wayne, Indiana. It was organized July 4, 1850, and work began in February 1852. Some of the capital was gained from a merger with the Great Western Railroad of Ohio in 1851. On August 26, 1853, the line opened from Crestline west to Bucyrus, and a continuation west to Forest opened in early January 1854. On June 10 the line opened west to Delphos, and on October 31 the full line to Fort Wayne was completed, opening the next day.

The Fort Wayne and Chicago Railroad was chartered in Indiana on May 11, 1852, and organized September 14, 1852, as a further extension west to Chicago. It was chartered February 5, 1853, in Illinois. The first section opened in February 1856 from Fort Wayne to Columbia City.

On July 26, 1856, the Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne and Chicago Rail Road was formed as a consolidation of the Fort Wayne and Chicago, Ohio and Indiana, and Ohio and Pennsylvania Railroads. Extensions opened west to Warsaw September 28, Plymouth November 10, Englewood, Illinois (south of Chicago) on November 29, 1858, and Van Buren Street in Chicago on December 25, 1858. On January 1, 1859, trains started running to Chicago, with a terminal at the future location of Union Station. The part west of Plymouth was built with rails removed from the New Portage Railroad.

From the early days, the Pennsylvania Railroad (PRR) had been involved with the project, supplying funds. Once the Fort Wayne Railroad Bridge at Pittsburgh was finished in 1857, trains began to run through from Philadelphia. In 1858 the PFW&C began using the first Union Station in Pittsburgh, shared with the PRR.

On July 1, 1859, the PFW&C defaulted on its debts, and was sold at foreclosure on October 24, 1861. It was reorganized as the Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne and Chicago Railway February 26, 1862.

On July 1, 1865, the PFW&C leased the New Castle and Beaver Valley Railroad, giving it a branch from Homewood, Pennsylvania north to New Castle. The Lawrence Railroad, branching west from Lawrence Junction on the NC&BV to Youngstown, Ohio, was leased on June 27, 1869. On June 1, 1887, the Lawrence Railroad became part of the Youngstown, Lawrence and Pittsburgh Railroad, which on August 1 merged into the PRR's Pittsburgh, Youngstown and Ashtabula Railroad, and on January 9, 1906, that merged with the New Castle and Beaver Valley to form the Pittsburgh, Youngstown and Ashtabula Railway, still leased to the PRR.

The PFW&C bought the Cleveland, Zanesville and Cincinnati Railroad by deed on July 1, 1865, making it its Akron Branch. The line ran from Hudson, Ohio, on the Cleveland and Pittsburgh Railroad south through Akron, crossing the PFW&C at Orrville and continuing to Millersburg. In 1868 a short 3.5 mile (5.5 km) extension to the south was built, and on November 4, 1869, the PFW&C sold the line to the Pittsburgh, Mt. Vernon, Columbus and London Railroad. That company later became part of the PRR's Cleveland, Akron and Cincinnati Railway.

On May 22, 1869, the PFW&C leased the Massillon and Cleveland Railroad, giving it a short branch from Massillon north to the Akron Branch at Clinton.

On July 1, 1869, the PRR leased the PFW&C and began operating it directly, but on April 1, 1871, the PFW&C was transferred to the newly formed Pennsylvania Company. On December 1, 1871, the Pennsylvania Company leased the Cleveland and Pittsburgh Railroad. Since January 25, 1860, the C&P had been operated jointly by itself and by the PFW&C, providing a branch of the PFW&C from Rochester, Pennsylvania, west and north, crossing the PFW&C at Alliance, Ohio, and continuing to Cleveland.

Operation was transferred back to the Pennsylvania Railroad from the Pennsylvania Company on January 1, 1918.

On February 1, 1968, the PRR was merged into Penn Central. The PFW&C stayed separate, filing for bankruptcy on July 14, 1973, over three years after Penn Central's 1970 bankruptcy. On April 1, 1976, the PFW&C became part of Conrail. Conrail downgraded the line, preferring other parallel lines. On June 2, 1994, the Norfolk Southern Railway bought 18 miles (29 km) from Gary to Valparaiso, which had been out of service since 1991, for $1.4 million. They soon bought 61 more miles (98 km), from Valparaiso east to Warsaw, and acquired trackage rights east to Fort Wayne.

With the August 22, 1998, breakup of Conrail, the line was split at Crestline, Ohio. West of Crestline, including the section that had been owned by Norfolk Southern since 1994, went to CSX Transportation, along with the intersecting Cleveland, Cincinnati, Chicago and St. Louis Railway (better known as the Big Four, a part of the New York Central Railroad system until 1968). Tracks east of Crestline went to Norfolk Southern, which also obtained trackage rights west of that Ohio city.

At the western end of the route, the original PFW&C line has been abandoned from Buffington (an area of far northwestern Gary, Indiana, abutting East Chicago) northwest for a little over four miles to Whiting, Indiana; at both of these locations there are connections to the parallel tracks of the old Lake Shore and Michigan Southern Railway (New York Central Railroad). Northwest of Whiting, the LS&MS itself disappears, and the present-day line goes back to using the old PFW&C tracks, which run the rest of the way into Chicago, carrying both Norfolk Southern freight trains and several Amtrak passenger services.

On August 1, 2004, the Chicago Fort Wayne and Eastern Railroad, a new short line owned by RailAmerica, leased the western part of the line, from Crestline, Ohio, west to the Gary, Indiana, neighborhood of Tolleston, from CSX. It also obtained overhead trackage rights along the formerly out-of-service line from Tolleston, at the junction with the old Michigan Central Railroad (now CSX), northwest to Clarke Junction (also in Gary, just north of the Gary-Chicago International Airport), and then west along the former Baltimore and Ohio Chicago Terminal Railroad (now CSX) to Blue Island, Illinois. Norfolk Southern continues to own the line east of Crestline, Ohio, as well as the part west of Whiting, IN.

New Alliance Records

New Alliance Records was an independent record label founded by American musicians D. Boon and Mike Watt (of The Minutemen) and longtime friend and associate Martin Tamburovich. They were inspired by the example of their friends in southern California band Black Flag who had earlier formed SST Records. The existence of SST led Watt to understand, according to a 1987 interview he gave to Musician magazine, how easy it was to get a record made: "All you had to do was pay the record plant man."

The label's first release was the 1980 various-artist compilation Cracks in the Sidewalk, which included tracks by the Minutemen, Black Flag, and Saccharine Trust. Other early releases on New Alliance included Hüsker Dü's first album Land Speed Record and the Minutemen's second-ever release, the seven-inch EP Joy. Eventually the label grew to nurture the early career of the Descendents, issue additional compilation albums (Chunks and Mighty Feeble), and release other recordings by the Minutemen (The Politics of Time), Secret Hate (Vegetables Dancing), and Hüsker Dü (the In a Free Land EP). The label also showcased a number of post-punk bands from the South Bay area of southern California, notably Slovenly, Phantom Opera, and Invisiblechains.

After D. Boon's car-accident death in 1985 and the increasingly busier schedule of Watt's post-Minutemen band Firehose, Watt and Tamburovich sold New Alliance to SST in 1987. Greg Ginn, SST's owner and Black Flag's guitarist, proceeded to transfer all of the Minutemen and Descendents back catalog and Hüsker Dü's Land Speed Record to SST and turned New Alliance into a subsidiary label of SST that concentrated on more adventurous and non-mainstream records, including jazz, instrumental, poetry, and spoken-word releases. New Alliance also released the debut single of Ciccone Youth and material from The Coachmen, both of which were Sonic Youth-related projects.

New Alliance ceased its operations in 1998 in order to save money. Its back-catalog has been deleted, its releases are no longer available through SST Records, and there is no mention of the label or its artists on SST's website.

Label co-founder Tamburovich died of a bacterial infection in 2003.

Rapp Records founder Rad Ramsey & Martin Tamburovich reactivated New Alliance in 2000 as a Rapp Records sublabel. It also brought back its back-catalog. This time it was specialized for Rap, Rock & Reissuing its old material. However, in 2006, SST filed a case against Rapp & forced Ramsey to close down New Alliance.

There's no real sourced critical commentary about this particular screenshot in the relevant section so the context required for non-free use by WP:NFCC is lacking; moreover, the fact that the station is part of the Univision network is something that can be sufficiently understood by text alone and doesn't require that reader see this particular station ID to be understood; in other words, removing the file from the section wouldn't be detrimental to the reader's understanding in any way."

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the file's talk page.

Please consider addressing the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and files for discussion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

America's Shock Past
Yikes. An attack page on a whole people. Wikipedia is not a propaganda machine (Author wrote "This article highlights the true reasons behind the USA's constant threat to the global world. Oil."). Even the title is POV. Much of this stuff is unrelated (compare rape rates to bombings). As for the bombings, we already have a List of U.S. military history events. Any redirect of this, to anything, would be POV and arbitrary. CanadianCaesar 03:07, 21 August 2005 (UTC)

I think this article needs to be cleaned up a lot, but not deleted.  Some things in America's past may be shameful, but it shouldn't just be ignored.  --TheKoG 03:43, 21 August 2005 (UTC)

Yerecoin, Western Australia

Yerecoin is a small town located in the Wheatbelt region of Western Australia, in the Shire of Victoria Plains,156 km north-northeast of the state capital, Perth.

The surrounding areas produce wheat and other cereal crops. The town is a receival site for the CBH Group.

History
Yerecoin was the Aboriginal name for a nearby well, first recorded by a surveyor in 1879. It was first established as a railway station on a new line north from Toodyay, which was approved in 1914 and was extended from Bolgart to Calingiri in 1917 and further to Piawaning (10 km north of Yerecoin) in 1919. The surrounding land was owned by the Midland Railway Company, and was not subdivided by the company until 1925. The company also set aside 200 acre for a townsite at Yerecoin, but the land was sold to one owner, and development of the townsite area was slow. A school was opened in 1927, and was followed by other community buildings. The town was gazetted in 1966.

Ebrahim Maka

Ebrahim Suleman Maka (5 March 1922 – 7 November 1994) was a wicket-keeper who represented India in Test cricket. He was born in Daman, at the time part of Portuguese India.

Maka appeared at a time when the Indian cricket had many wicket-keepers of nearly the same class. His first appearance was in the fourth Test against Pakistan in 1952–53. The selectors had already tried out Probir Sen, Nana Joshi and Vijay Rajindernath as wicket-keepers in the previous Tests and Maka himself was replaced for the fifth Test.

His other Test was in West Indies in the same season when he was understudy to Joshi. While batting he had two bones of his right hand broken by fast bowler Frank King. Vijay Manjrekar substituted for him and effected a stumping.

Maka came from a poor family. His father was a cargo ship captain who earned Rs.150 a month and had to take care of a family of ten which lived near Crawford Market in Bombay.

Mint Car

"Mint Car" is a song by English rock band the Cure, released as the second single from their tenth studio album Wild Mood Swings in June 1996. It reached the top 20 in Finland and Iceland and peaked at number 31 on the UK Singles Chart.

Background
Robert Smith has stated in an interview that he thought this song was better than the British top-10 hit "Friday I'm in Love". Smith said, "it was the single, and I thought it was a better song than 'Friday'. But it did absolutely nothing because we weren't the band at that time. The zeitgeist wasn't right. It taught me that sometimes there's a tipping point, and if you're the band, you're the band, even if you don't want to be, and there's nothing you can do about it."

Release
Released on 17 June 1996, the song reached number 31 on the UK Singles Chart and number 14 on the Billboard Modern Rock Tracks chart. The single includes two remixes of the song, as well as three songs not available on the album. The "Busker's Mix" includes the acoustic guitar parts but omits electric guitar tracks. The "Electric Mix" contains the electric guitar parts, but leaves out the acoustic guitar. All of the B-sides, except the remixes, would go on to appear in the 2004 box set Join the Dots.

Track listings
All tracks were written by Robert Smith, Simon Gallup, Perry Bamonte, Jason Cooper, and Roger O'Donnell.

Equitable PCI Bank

Equitable PCI Bank, Inc. (🇵🇸) was one of the largest banks in the Philippines, being the third-largest bank in terms of assets. It was the largest bank before it was overtaken by Metrobank in 1995. It is the result of the merger of Equitable Banking Corporation and Philippine Commercial International Bank or PCIBank. It was known for a wide range of services from savings to insurance and, through its wholly owned subsidiary Equitable Card Network, was the largest Philippine credit card issuer. The bank merged with Banco de Oro Universal Bank in early 2007, and is now branded as BDO as its new identity as part of the new Banco de Oro Unibank, Inc.

Equitable PCI Bank history
The shares of the Lopez and Gokongwei families were sold to the SSS and GSIS, which acquired 78% of PCI Bank shares that were bought by the Go-Led Equitable Banking Corporation. They merged in 1999 and were approved by the Bangko Sentral and other agencies that had created the third largest Philippine bank, with Equitable as the survivor of the merger. The name Equitable PCI Bank was adopted. Head offices at the former PCI Bank Towers I and II were renamed to the Equitable PCI Bank Towers I and II, and the Equitable Banking Corporation Binondo Center and at the Equitable Banking Corporation Tower, also in Makati.

The bank played an important role in the impeachment trial of the former president Joseph Estrada. The bank produced fifteen witnesses (along with nine banks: Citibank, Philippine Savings Bank, Bank of the Philippine Islands, Security Bank, Land Bank of the Philippines, Urban Bank, Export and Industry Bank, Asia United Bank and Keppel Bank) to prove that the 'Jose Velarde' account was owned by Estrada (which also invested on the merger of the Equitable Banking Corporation and then the Lopez-Gokongwei led Philippine Commercial International Bank).

On August 5, 2005, the SM Group of Companies and Banco de Oro Universal Bank announced that they have purchased a 24.76% stake of Equitable PCI from the Go family (Equitable Banking Corporation), the family that founded the bank, along with a 10% stake in Equitable CardNetwork. Subsequent acquisitions by Banco de Oro enabled it to gain a 34% share in the bank.

On January 6, 2006, Banco de Oro Universal Bank submitted a merger offer to the bank, with Banco de Oro as the surviving entity. Under the proposed offer, Banco de Oro would swap 1.6 of its shares for every 1 share of Equitable-PCI (The merger occurred, but BDO Shareholders were to swap 1.8 BDO shares for every EPCI share). As a second option, Banco de Oro also offered to base the swap ratio on the book values of both banks to be assessed by an independent accounting firm using international accounting standards. With the success of this merger, Banco de Oro became the second largest bank, with assets of P613 billion, after the current industry leader, Metropolitan Bank and Trust Company, with assets of more than P641.5 billion. The merger demoted the Bank of the Philippine Islands to third place, with P582 billion in assets. BDO has since surpassed Metrobank in asset, loan and deposit sizes to become the largest lender in the Philippines.

Equitable Bank history
On June 17, 1950, Equitable Banking Corporation was founded by Go Kim Pah as the first commercial bank in the Philippines, licensed by the newly formed Central Bank of the Philippines (now Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas). Other commercial banks like Bank of the Philippine Islands were formed and licensed during the Spanish or American regimes. However, it was not until 1955 that Equitable opened its first branch in Divisoria.

In 1958, Equitable established the only direct telex service between the Philippines and Japan at the time, with initial messages exchanged between Equitable and Chase Manhattan Bank of Tokyo.

On August 15, 1963, Equitable established its first branch outside the Philippines in Hong Kong and only International Branch, the first time a Philippine bank opened a branch in the city. Two years later, on March 26, 1965, Equitable opened its first provincial branch in Cebu City. By 1972, Equitable emerged as the country's premier bank.

In 1989, Equitable turned its credit card department into a wholly owned subsidiary, Equitable CardNetwork. With three other banks, namely Far East Bank and Trust Company (since merged with BPI), Philippine National Bank and United Coconut Planters Bank, it formed Megalink, then the Philippines' largest ATM network.

On July 27, 1996, Equitable Savings Bank was established as Equitable's savings bank arm. Equitable listed on the Philippine Stock Exchange on April 3, 1997, and in 1999.

In 1977, the bank received its foreign currency license from the BSP and in 1980, issued its first credit cards under the VISA (credit card) and Visa brand. In 1987, Equitable became a universal bank and was appointed the clearing house of the Makati Stock Exchange, now the Philippine Stock Exchange.

PCIBank history
PCIBank has a diverse and unique history. It was established in July 1938 as the Philippine Commercial Industrial Bank, with its head office in Dasmariñas Street, Binondo, Manila. In 1966, it moved its head office to the corner of T.M. Kalaw and A. Mabini Streets (building now demolished). In 1976, it merged with the Philippine Bank of Commerce and Merchants Banking Corporation, creating then the largest branch network. This tripartite merger transformed PCIBank into one of the largest financial institutions in the country.

The 1980s was a very significant decade in the bank; in 1982 it officially decided to adopt the history of the Philippine Bank of Commerce (PBC), resulting in it becoming the first Filipino-owned private commercial bank in the country. It established its ExpressPadala Center in Ermita, and pioneered the remittance business in the country. In 1983, it decided to change the "I" in PCIBank from "Industrial" to "International", to reflect the wide foreign office network of the bank. In 1985, it merged with the Insular Bank of Asia and America.

In 1987, John Gokongwei bought shares in the bank, becoming the second largest stockholder. He appointed Rafael Buenaventura to head PCIBank as President and CEO.

PCI Bank has won a string of "Bank of the Year" awards from the editors of Euromoney and Asiamoney. The bank has also been cited for its export financing, specialized lending and consumer finance activities by the Philippine Export and Foreign Loan Guarantee Corporation, the Development Bank of the Philippines, and the Home Insurance and Guaranty Corporation.

Addressing the various needs of its customers, PCI Bank set up subsidiaries to provide services ranging from leasing, investment banking and stock market transactions to credit cards, consumer loans, insurance, and overseas remittances.

The 1980s proved hard for the Lopezes because all of their businesses were seized by President Marcos. To this day The Romualdez-Lopez dispute case still remains at court. Also in the 1980s, when Gokongwei entered PCIBank, he also owned Far East Bank and Trust Co, and talks of a merger surfaced which would have created the largest bank in the Philippines.

In 1991, PCIBank formed BancNet along with Security Bank, Chinabank, RCBC, Allied Bank (merged with PNB), Metrobank, International Corporate Bank (now part of UnionBank) and Citytrust Savings Bank. BancNet was also the brainchild of one of PCIBank's senior officers, Ramon Arceo Jr., the Senior Vice President.

The PCIBank Group also had three companies/subsidiaries listed at the Philippine Stock Exchange, namely the mother bank itself (PSE:PCI); Bankard, now an affiliate of RCBC (PSE:BKD); and PCI Leasing and Finance (PSE:PCIL), now named BDO Leasing and Finance (PSE:BLFI).

Ownership
Before merging with Banco de Oro:
 * PCD Nominee Corporation: 2.31%
 * Go Family: 24.76%
 * Government Service Insurance System (Philippines): 12.7%
 * Social Security System: 29%
 * Trans Middle East Philippines Equities: 7.13% (the company of former Chairman Martin Romualdez)
 * Shoemart: 2.15%
 * EBC Investments: 10.48%
 * Public stock: 6.81%

After SM Investments Corporation bought the majority stake:
 * SM Investments Corporation: 85.6%
 * Trans Middle East Philippines Equities: 7.13% (the company of former Chairman Martin Romualdez)

Competition
Equitable PCI Bank's main competitors included Metrobank, Bank of the Philippine Islands (BPI), Landbank and Philippine National Bank (PNB).

Firsts
It is a member of both leading ATM networks in the Philippines; Equitable Bank's Megalink of which it is a founding member and PCIBank's BancNet of which it is the BancNet Operator along with Metrobank and RCBC.

Calingiri, Western Australia

Calingiri is a town located north-east of Perth, near New Norcia in Western Australia. It is in the Shire of Victoria Plains.

The town derives its name from Calingiri Waterhole, the name of which was first recorded by a surveyor in 1903. The settlement was first proposed in 1914. By the time the town was gazetted in 1917 it was variously spelt as Calingtry, Kalingiri, The Washpool, Kalingary, Calingarra, Calingtry, Calingiry, Kalingiry and finally Calingiri.

The main industry in town is wheat farming with the town being a Cooperative Bulk Handling grain receival site.

The Calingiri earthquake, March 1970
The Calingiri earthquake of March 1970 was at the time one of only five known Australian recorded earthquakes to cause surface faulting. It was thought to be related to the 1968 Meckering earthquake, but a direct connection was not made at the time.

 * Date of occurrence: 10 March 1970
 * Time: 	17:15 UTC (03:15 local time)
 * Latitude: 	31.11 South (+/- 10 km)
 * Longitude: 	116.46 East (+/- 10 km)
 * Magnitude:	5.9
 * Intensity: VI (Strong)

Environment
An 800 sqkm tract of land around the town has been classified as an Important Bird Area because it supports up to 20 breeding pairs of the endangered Carnaby's Black-Cockatoo.

One of the local reserves near the Calingiri townsite was named after Rica Erickson.

Marienfeld

Marienfeld is a large (2.6 km2 / 640 acres) grassy field on the reclaimed site of a former open-pit lignite mine about 20 km south-west of Cologne Cathedral in the city of Cologne, Germany, straddling the towns of Frechen and Kerpen. The mine area was named Marienfeld (German: Mary's Field) and landscaped in order to serve as the site of the Catholic Church's 20th World Youth Day in 2005.

Overview
Preparations for the World Youth Day began in September 2004. A 10-m (33-ft) Pope Hill (German: Papsthügel) was constructed since April 2005, so Pope Benedict XVI could be visible amidst an estimated 1 to 2 million visitors when he presided over the festival's concluding Sunday Mass on August 21, 2005. An altar was built at the top of the hill, which was christened the Mountain of the 70 Nations by Cardinal Meisner, because little pieces of earth were brought from church delegates of 70 different countries. The hill was built by Bilfinger Berger AG, which poured over 80,000 m3 (2.8 million cu. ft) of earth carried in around 200 trucks per day.

The name Marienfeld is derived from a Pietà sculpted in 1420 from French limestone that has been a destination for pilgrims seeking to venerate the Virgin Mary for centuries. The sculpture has moved numerous times. It was first placed in a chapel at a location around 1 km from the present Marienfeld, then near the town of Grefrath. It was moved in 1730 by the nuns from the nearby convent of Bottenbroich to the parish church of Bottenbroich, the Church of the Assumption of Mary (St. Maria Himmelfahrt), an old church (built between 1479 and 1484) located in part of what is now Marienfeld. In 1948, the church was demolished, partly due to heavy damage sustained during World War II and partly as part of the resettlement of the town of Bottenbroich to make way for an open-pit lignite mine being opened on the site. The parishes of Bottenbroich and Grefrath were combined, and the Pietà was moved to a new parish church in Grefrath, built in 1949. However, Grefrath itself was gradually resettled between 1952 and 1965 to make way for the expansion of the lignite mine, so the Pietà was moved again in 1963 to its present location at the parish church of Frechen-Grefrath (2 km from Marienfeld), where it remains on display.

The area used for the World Youth day celebrations should not be confused with the town of Marienfeld in the Gutersloh district of Germany, where the Portugal national football team stayed and which was used as a training area for the team during the 2006 FIFA World Cup and chosen again by it as its base for the UEFA Euro 2024.

Also, I would like to see if the text of the article itself meets the Wikipedia's copyright policy (I know where the source for that article is located. I think somebody had managed to extract information from the metro.net website. thanks.

Recommendation: Merge Articles
I recommend we merge the two wiki articles Metro Local and List of current Metro Local routes. They contain almost the same information.

I'm not sure we even need one article, given that the information is easily available (with minimal research effort) on Metro's website [http:\\metro.net], a website which is kept current by a staff.

Service change premature edits
@PuppyCatBree I've noticed that you've made changes effective as of mid-December in late October/early November. These changes seem extremely premature. I think it would be okay to add a note that this route will be changing in the future, but fully changing or deleting now seems too soon. I might also suggest using the "show by date" template which would allow you to input the information now, and have it autoswap the day of the service change. I'd ask that you please revert your premature changes. RickyCourtney (talk) 17:33, 4 November 2022 (UTC)

@RickyCourtney, I know where we are getting this information. The five Service Council meetings. My South Bay council actually confirmed that Line 550 will be discontinued with Limes 205 and 246 replacing portions of the soon-to-be-former Line 550. Proof: https://docs.google.com/gview?url=http%3A%2F%2Fmedia.metro.net%2Fboard%2FAgendas%2F2022%2F11_november%2F20221103asba.pdf&embedded=true

 * @PuppyCatBree I'm not saying that the information is incorrect. The key phrase there is "soon-to-be-former" -- the line exists today -- and will for another 30+ days. So it seems premature that the route is already missing from this page. RickyCourtney (talk) 00:09, 5 November 2022 (UTC)

Merge proposal
I propose merging Metro Rapid into Los Angeles Metro Bus. I think that it does not make sense to have Metro Rapid have its own article, since it is not really a distinct system from Metro Bus; it is just a few lines which are more express service than bus rapid transit that do not really exist separately from the rest of the Metro Bus system. Furthermore, the Metro Rapid page even defers to the main Metro Bus article and lacks a lot of proper sourcing other than the sources for the services; a lot of this info is duplicated already on the main Metro Bus article already. Any relevant and useful information like history and background about Metro Rapid could easily be trimmed down with proper sourcing and summarized in the Metro Bus article. Does anyone else want to share their opinions on this? --OrdinaryScarlett (talk) 06:13, 15 November 2023 (UTC)

 * Furthermore, perhaps even, this article could be repurposed into a list article of all the transit routes (Metro Bus, Metro Local, Metro Rail, and Metro Busway) like for example the article List of transit routes in Minneapolis–Saint Paul. After all, this article is already pretty much a list article in and of itself. --OrdinaryScarlett (talk) 06:43, 15 November 2023 (UTC)
 * I support folding the Metro Rapid page into Los Angeles Metro Bus page. When the Metro Rapid page was created, it made a lot more sense to have it as a standalone page. But with Metro largely abandoning the brand it no longer does. However, I don't support a omnibus "List of routes" article. RickyCourtney (talk) 22:46, 15 November 2023 (UTC)
 * If you're making a merge proposal you should tag both articles to get some actual feedback.
 * as for the proposal, it's not the worst idea. Metro Rapid was intended to be a lot more than it turned out to be, and so I'm not sure it really needs an entire separate article. There's only four routes. They can easily be covered by a section in the list of routes, with some intro text to describe the in that section.
 * Conversely, though, New York's Select Bus Service, which is comparable in nature, does have its own article. oknazevad (talk) 15:46, 24 November 2023 (UTC)

Recommendation:Ridership column
I recommend that a ridership column be added for the transit routes. There is a website that has the ridership stats for all the routes. Ex696 (talk) 03:44, 28 March 2024 (UTC)

2005 comment
267K is WAY too big--should be broken up, probably by letter range. Also redlinks for trailer parks, etc. seem like newcomer-biting VFD-bait. Niteowlneils 03:12, 21 August 2005 (UTC)
