Panic/Tainted Love

"Panic" and "Tainted Love" are songs recorded by British experimental music band Coil. These were released in 1985 through Some Bizzare in the UK and Wax Trax! Records in the US respectively, as the band's first single, and the sole one from their 1984 debut studio album, Scatology. Originally released on twelve-inch vinyl discs, the single was regarded as the first AIDS benefit release, and has been reissued several times on compact discs.

"Panic", co-written and co-produced by the band with JG Thirlwell, is the second track on Scatology, and explores the theme of an initiatory approach to experience, as well as the using of fear; its remixed version is featured on the single's A-side. "Tainted Love", originally written by Ed Cobb and popularly known after its recording by new wave duo Soft Cell, was included as the B-side, having been drastically re-arranged to reflect HIV/AIDS epidemic, emerged in the early 1980s. The music video for "Tainted Love", directed by the band's member Peter Christopherson and featuring Marc Almond, has caused a minor controversy during its release, and has been purchased by the Museum of Modern Art.

"Panic"
"Panic" was written by John Balance, Peter Christopherson, and J. G. Thirlwell. It is four minutes and twenty-one seconds long, and is the second track on both vinyl and compact disc versions of Scatology. Musically, the song contains use of guitar feedback, rhythmic drum machine parts and Balance's "feral" vocal styling. The song ends with a vocal outro chanting, "The only thing to fear is fear itself".

The liner notes of Scatology feature an extended commentary on the song, allegedly written by John Balance. According to Balance, "Panic" is intended to be "about the deliberate nurture of states of mind usually regarded as dangerous and insane," and is also about "using a fear as a key [...] to crystallize and inspire." Balance also writes about a so-called "murder in reverse" that means "performing [...] psychic surgery - in order to restore the whole being." Liner notes for the single feature the similar text, and so does A Coil Magazine which was published in 1987. A Coil Magazine editors John Sanders and Mike Gaffney interpreted the song's lyrics as a hymn to Pan as an incarnate of liberating aspect of chaos. David Keenan gives a same statement, adding that the song deals with theme of initiatory approach to experience which was concurrent theme throughout later Coil's work.

The A-side of the single features a remixed version of the song, extended to last approximately seven and a half minutes. The remix features Marc Almond's band bassist Bill McGee playing on double bass, and is being preceded by "Aqua Regis", an instrumental track which was said to be "a restructured version" of "Panic". Dubbed "the Dionysian remix" in the liner notes of Unnatural History III, it was described as a "curious and somewhat clumsy consctruction" since it was edited on the digital $3⁄4$-inch video system.

"Tainted Love"
A cover version of Ed Cobb's song "Tainted Love", which was originally recorded by American singer Gloria Jones and became popular after being recorded by British band Soft Cell, was included on the single's B-side. Referred to by the band as "desecratory but sensitive," it became widely viewed by commentators, as well as the band's members, as a reflection on then-emerged HIV/AIDS epidemic. In the 1992 interview, Christopherson said that "Tainted Love" was "one of the first records that was supposed to have a moral as well as an entertaining aspect".

An arrangement for Coil's version of "Tainted Love" was heavily changed in contrary to Soft Cell's version, slowed down to the point when it gives a terrifying impression. Beside from synthesizer and percussion parts, Balance sings in a capella approach, giving one of his "most harrowing vocal performances". Remembering Christopherson upon his death in 2010, Thirlwell said this appoarch to be to an improvisation which came about during the recording: feeling that Balance's vocals were too "deadpan", Thirlwell asked Christopherson to go into the vocal booth with Balance and wrench the latter's arm behind his back, and pull on it, "to put a bit of pain into the performance."

In the November 2005 issue of The Wire, Coil's version of "Tainted Love" was featured in the "Remake Remodel" list of renowned cover songs; in the entry, author Keith Moliné deemed it a superior version to the 2001 performance by Marilyn Manson. In 2017, "Tainted Love" was given an entry in the Treble webzine's "10 Creepy Cover Songs" list; the year later, it was ranked at number 99 in the same publication's "The Top 100 Cover Songs" list.

Release
The "Panic/Tainted Love" single was initially released in April–May 1985, shortly after the release of Scatology, by Force & Form and K.422. In the United States, the single was licensed by Wax Trax! Records; it was reissued in 1990 on CD by Wax Trax!, and later in 1994 by TVT Records. An extended edition of single was issued in 2015 as part of the Threshold Archives series. The single's first pressing featured a textured sleeve, with the first 1000 copies also being produced on red vinyl; some copies included an A4 insert with an advert for the single and Scatology on one side, and a listing of other Some Bizzare releases on the other. The artwork for the single was designed by artist Eddie Cairns, who was said to be the band's friend, and later died from AIDS-related disease.

Profits from the single's sales were reportedly successful, and had been donated via the Terrence Higgins Trust for the AIDS research, as it was announced in the single's liner notes; since then, it is regarded as the first AIDS benefit music release.

"Aqua Regis" and "Tainted Love" were included on compact disc versions of Scatology released in 1988 and 2001. The single version of "Panic" is in a 1997 compilation Unnatural History III, while the album version is featured on compilation albums A Guide for Finishers: Golden Hair and The Golden Hare with a Voice of Silver.

"Tainted Love" video
The music video for "Tainted Love" was directed by Peter Christopherson with an £8.000 advance, and was aired around same time the single was released. The video features Balance, portrayed as an AIDS victim in his last days, and Christopherson as a hospital orderly. At one point, Marc Almond appears as a leather-clad hospital visitor, viewed by some commentators as representing the angel of death.

In August 1985, the video was featured on an exhibition held by the Museum of Modern Art, and was later purchased into the latter collection, of which the band was said to be proud. In 1994, the video was featured on a Wax Trax! video compilation, Black Box: Retrospective, Vol. 2.

Edilberto K. Tiempo

Edilberto Kaindong Tiempo (August 5, 1913 – September 19, 1996 ) was a Filipino writer and professor. He and his wife, Edith L. Tiempo, are credited by Silliman University with establishing "a tradition in excellence in creative writing and the teaching of literacy craft which continues to this day" at that university.

Career
During his tenure there, he was department chair (1950 to 1969), graduate school dean, vice-president for academic affairs, and writer-in-residence. Tiempo was also a part-time professor in St. Paul University Dumaguete, teaching fine arts, drama, and graduate school.

As a Guggenheim writing fellow in 1955, he submitted a collection of short stories, A Stream at Dalton Pass and Other Stories, for his Ph.D.  in English at the University of Denver. This collection won a prize at the same time that his second novel, More Than Conquerors, won the first prize for the novel.

Tiempo and his wife studied with Paul Engle in the Iowa Writers' Workshop, graduating in 1962; their experience there inspired them to found the Silliman National Writers Workshop, the first in Asia, which has been in operation since then.

Tiempo was also a Rockefeller fellow. In addition to his career at Silliman, Tiempo taught fiction and literary criticism for four years in two American schools during the 1960s.

Works
His novel, Cry Slaughter, published in 1957 was a revised version of his Watch in the Night novel published four years earlier in the Philippines. Cry Slaughter had four printings by Avon in New York, a hardbound edition in London, and six European translations.

Wayne Hussey

Jerry Wayne Hussey (born 26 May 1958) is an English musician who was born in Bristol, England. He is best known as the lead singer of the Mission, and as the guitarist of the Sisters of Mercy.

Biography
Hussey grew up in Bristol. He was influenced at a young age by Marc Bolan and his band T. Rex, and was thus inspired to become a guitarist. Brought up in the LDS Church, he rebelled against his parents' wishes that he serve as a missionary and moved to Liverpool in the late 1970s to join the scene around Eric's Club, a noted nightclub of the time.

Hussey started to perform, most notably with Pauline Murray and the Invisible Girls, with whom he started songwriting. The first success for Hussey came when he joined Dead or Alive at the request of frontman Pete Burns. After Burns retreated to become more studio-based, Hussey decided to leave and was offered a position with the Sisters of Mercy, concentrating on twelve-string and six-string guitars, contributing to arrangements and using his higher ranged voice for backing vocals which contrasted with Andrew Eldritch's melancholic baritone. After leaving the Sisters of Mercy, Hussey and bassist Craig Adams set up the Mission, recruiting Mick Brown on drums and Simon Hinkler on guitars. He lived in Leeds for a while before moving to London towards the end of the 1980s.

Hussey has produced and played on records by the Mission's Mercury Records labelmates All About Eve and in the late 1990s provided some remixes for Cleopatra Records. He also produced, remixed and appeared on some tracks for the US band Gossamer including the track "Run" for the first Unquiet Grave compilation album by Cleopatra Records. He also produced and played on Brilliant Mistakes (1996) by the Greek band the Flowers of Romance. Hussey has played live with both Gary Numan and the Cure. He is a Liverpool F.C. supporter and after his team's victory in the Champions League Final of 2005, he composed the song entitled "Draped in Red" featured on the studio album God Is a Bullet.

In 2019, Hussey released his autobiography Salad Daze.

Hussey currently lives in São Paulo, Brazil, married to a Brazilian actress, Cinthya, and has two children from previous relationships.

Solo career
Since 2002, Hussey has regularly played solo shows that features Mission material, new songs and cover versions. After he wound up the Mission for the second time in early 2009, he released his first solo studio album called Bare in October of that year on the Sony Music label. (In Germany, there are four bonus tracks.)

In May 2009, Hussey announced on the Mission's website and in an interview on BBC Radio 6 Music that he and Julianne Regan were working together on an album of cover versions, reinterpretations of old material and new songs, and invited fans to suggest songs for the duo to cover. This album was eventually released in the autumn of 2011 as Curios under the name Hussey-Regan on Cherry Red Records. In 2014, he released his second solo studio album, Songs of Candlelight & Razorblades, of largely acoustic songs.

In August 2020, Hussey re-recorded "Tower of Strength" as ReMission International TOS 2020, in support of key workers dealing with COVID-19 globally. All proceeds went to charities personally chosen by each contributor to TOS2020. On this project Wayne collaborated with friends and musicians, including Michael Ciravolo, Andy Rourke of the Smiths, Billy Duffy of the Cult, Budgie of Siouxsie and the Banshees, Evi Vine, Gary Numan, James Alexander Graham of the Twilight Sad, Jay Aston of Bucks Fizz, Julianne Regan of All About Eve, Kevin Haskins of Bauhaus, Lol Tolhurst of the Cure, Martin Gore of Depeche Mode, Michael Aston of Gene Loves Jezebel, Midge Ure of Ultravox, Miles Hunt of the Wonder Stuff, Rachel Goswell of Slowdive, Richard Fortus of Guns N' Roses, Robin Finck of Nine Inch Nails, Tim Palmer, Trentemøller and Kirk Brandon of Theatre of Hate and Spear of Destiny.

Equipment
When playing live solo, Hussey uses a Martin D42. When playing live with the band, Hussey currently uses a Schecter Corsair 12-string. In the studio, he uses both a Fender Telecaster and Fender Starcaster.

Luna forest

In Ptolemy's Geography (book 2, chapter 10), the Luna forest (Latin Luna silva, Greek Louna hule) is a geographical feature whose location is not known now with any certainty.

According to Ptolemy, the forest was located on the north bank of the Danube, downstream from the Gabreta Forest but before the southward bend leading through today's Hungary. A river flowed through the forest from the north into the Danube.

Talk:Hackney Central

Hackney
The content of this page is temporary. Most of the substantive content will be moved to London Borough of Hackney. It should only contain information relating to the central area of Hackney, broadly the area surrounding the top of Mare Street near the Town Hall.

The old 'hackney' is being replaced with a disambiguation page that will lead here, to the modern borough and to the old LCC borough and to other meaning of 'hackney'. Tarquin Binary 13:53, 27 August 2005 (UTC)

Didn't quite implement the above. Too many links to Hackney (geographical) exist to force users to go through a disambiguation. So we have now:

 * Redirected 'hackney' to the London Borough page
 * Added top link to disambiguation page at the top of Borough page.
 * Edited some of the borough-wide content out of this page, though it still needs more work.
 * Referenced this page as the Hackney (central) district from the Borough page, besides its link from disamb.

Besides cleaning this up, hope to add more substantive content to all the Hackney pages. Tarquin Binary 15:56, 27 August 2005 (UTC)

(In the meantime, Hackney (central) now dropped in favour of Hackney Central to match the station)

OK, poor old Hackney Central is now a real stub, because much of the material has been moved to the borough. But it deserves better, since it is the historic centre, and would have been what any one would have understood to be Hackney up until the 1899 reorganisation.

Fortunately there is no shortage of material on this district, so will work up an historical essay soonest. And there are plenty of local links available. Tarquin Binary 13:08, 28 August 2005 (UTC)

Note for future reference. We have no stub for Kingsland for some reason... Tarquin Binary 13:44, 28 August 2005 (UTC)

Yeah, I know it's a rubbish pic. Was helping a friend with their shopping, unfamiliar camera, sun in the wrong place (hence the white sky) etc etc. Will get a better one soonest, plus one of the Town Hall for the Borough page.

Anyone know how I could get the pic to appear above the infobox? Tarquin Binary 15:13, 29 August 2005 (UTC)

Hi, I did some revision of the Hackney Central page in July, mainly using Homerton and Stoke Newington as templates. I think most of the changes you made to that revision make sense - so, no great argument there. At the time I was just disappointed that Wiki had so little to say on Hackney and in particular the local area!

I have been thinking about what more can be said; there's a good article on Stepney/Whitechapel area that I thought I would aspire to equal on the locality. As equally old settlements, Hackney Central and Homerton have just as much history! I do have some more information on Sutton House - written by the property manager - but I will have to edit furiously to make it suitable as a dictionary entry for inclusion, and will, of course bow, to any further edits the community sees fit. Unregistered user - Kevin 08:20, 05 September 2005 (UTC)

 * Utterly agreed there's lot's more to be said - and the Whitechapel piece is definitely the touchstone. But I've been looking round London stuff in general and it sort of looks as though it got abandoned last year - at least in terms of substantive content. As you say, disappointing...

 * Anyway, perhaps we should divide this stuff up - I was contemplating doing a Hackney Central history piece in fact, but Stoke Newington is in an even worse state, needs a complete rewrite and it's where I live, so next bit of writing I do would likely be that. So, go for it, nice to know we're not duplicating effort.

 * But right now, I'm concentrating on taking pix. Was going to get some more Hackney Central ones next weekend, including Sutton House, St John's and St Augustine's tower, plus the Town Hall for the Borough(s) pages. But if your friend is the property manager at Sutton House, maybe they could supply some interior shots, I'm getting lots of exteriors. Tarquin Binary 13:03, 5 September 2005 (UTC)

Sorry removed 'Hackney Independent' - they're with all the other parties under LBH. Have concerns about the 'about Hackney' site, it seems to just contain local advertising - and to have an 'abandoned air' about it!

Over a year later, still vaguely planning to write some history for this page and Homerton.:User: kbthompson 01:36 15 July 2006

OK, added a 'Historical Hackney' section. This is a beginning - surprisingly little to say about Hackney village, all the historical action seemed to be in Homerton! Linked to St Augustine's Tower & Hackney (parish). Swapped images on the page, so they appeared in right section. Also, done a more extensive Homerton history section. I'd also previously done a 'cultural quarter' section. Some may disagree, but it reflects how the council sees the 'town square' and groups together some of the important local institutions. Anyone else active in Hackney (Tarquin?) I would value your feedback Kbthompson 10:50, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

Infobox redesign
Basically, Mrsteviec, I like it a lot. Much cooler than the old district boxes. But doesn't it risk getting slapped down by the WikiLondon Project people as being non-standard?

Tarquin Binary 16:57, 29 August 2005 (UTC)

 * It is the standard. MRSC 17:02, 29 August 2005 (UTC)

 * Great! Pardon my ignorance, I'm pretty new. I just assumed the old one was standard, because I've seen it so often. Obviously I have some reading to do...

 * Tarquin Binary 17:15, 29 August 2005 (UTC)

Channel 4 programme
"On Channel 4 UK's Television Programme 'The Best And Worst Places To Live In The UK' 2006, which was broadcast on Channel 4 UK on the 26th October 2006, it was officially branded as the Worst Place In The UK To Live In: 2006." Was added here today by an anonymous user, while it may be factual that the TV programme occurred, its subject was the London Borough of Hackney. By the criteria of another channel 4 programme, LBH is one of the best places to buy and invest ... So, yer pays yer money, and takes your choice ... but this particular article is about a district in Hackney; and not one about LBH. So, the note is misplaced here.

Discussion

 * Add any additional comments:

 * I can well understand the motives behind such a move, and it replicates the discussion had over a year ago (above). Much of the content of the page was moved to London Borough of Hackney at that time to ensure that content was not duplicated in each district page of the borough, of which this article is representative. I added much of the historical section, and that concentrates solely on this area and historical articles have been added on an ad-hoc basis for a number of districts where there is important history. The name arose out of the consensus at that time, as  felt the district was now more associated with the station, than the historic core around the churchyard; and there was too much confusion between this district and the eponymous London Boro. Calling it "Hackney, London" provides a misleading sense of the level of the area in comparison to the district. Actually, it's been called Hackney for nearly a thousand years, so it doesn't need to be qualified - the other uses are mere youthful cyber-squatters in comparison. 8;) Kbthompson 17:42, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Does that mean that this article should be titled simply Hackney, and the current contents of Hackney moved to Hackney (disambiguation)? -GTBacchus(talk) 20:18, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
 * eh, probably, but the problem is that in the vernacular, Hackney is used to refer to the whole of LBH, not just the bit called, eh ... Hackney ... that's why it got called Hackney Central (the last time) ... Kbthompson 21:40, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

 * So why Hackney Central and not Central Hackney? After all, adjectives in English normally come before the noun. I see that there is a ward by this name, but that is surely a reason to name the historic town otherwise, not to grab the name. Imc 16:34, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
 * As per "Tarquin Binary 15:56, 27 August 2005 (UTC) -> (In the meantime, Hackney (central) now dropped in favour of Hackney Central to match the station)" - as you say, it's also the name of the ward, it also matches the formation of names like Hackney Downs (go on, mention South Hackney!).
 * Also, someone kindly added Georgian Hackney and copy/pasted both here, and to Clapton Square. I'm not sure whether Clapton Square is in Hackney Central ward, or neighbouring Clapton, or indeed Chatham (essentially Homerton). I know the Augustine tower was 'moved' from Chatham to Central ward, but not sure about the rest of St Johns Gdns and Clapton Square. The old village of Hackney is not conterminous with Hackney Central ward. I'll have a think about the geography, and make it appear in one place; probably needs a good edit and wikifying, as well. Kbthompson 16:56, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
 * An explanation that was given by London Transport or its predecessors for station names like Finchley Central or Hounslow Central, was that the name was independent of the original local names, and were only intended to make sense in terms of the railway and its stations. I would think that the same logic would (or should) apply here. Actually, I'm not that familiar with Hackney, so I probably should retire from the discussion here. Imc 19:46, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

Welcome your comments, although I think it makes sense to keep Hackney Central, it is, as you say an argument that affects the way most of London is presented. I just don't want to be the one to write "Hackney, London in the London Borough of Hackney (known popularly as Hackney), but we're specifically referring to the area around the churchyard and Hackney central station" - which is where I see us ending up. 8^) Kbthompson 09:38, 17 January 2007 (UTC) (it was late, I forgot to sign it, sorry)
 * The above discussion is preserved as an archive of the debate. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on this talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

Boundaries
I promised to have a think about the boundaries of the area (on 16 Jan). In common with much of London, they are more than a little fuzzy. So, any comments welcomed. So, the new church was built on church field, an empty field dividing Hackney village from Upper Homerton; and Clapton Sq in Upper Homerton/Lower Clapton. It being the only place left to build, until the railway came through and Victorian developers tore down the medieval heart of the village and replaced it with much what we see today.
 * Historically, Hackney village extended along a single road (Mare St), and its extension Church Street (now essentially the Narrow Way). While it is a 'ribbon development', we shouldn't think of it as thin, as many properties had extensive gardens behind them. (For instance: the Mermaid Tavern gardens extended from Church Street to - the then non-existent Amhurst Rd), and even 'lowly' cottages had land to feed themselves.
 * On the north, the village was bounded by Lower Clapton and Upper Homerton, indeed I think the new church was built in upper Homerton, and this is reflected by it being included in Chatham (ward) - which is essentially the old upper Homerton. Same goes for Clapton Sq, although there is an argument for it lying in Lower Clapton. (The villages were really very much check-by-jowl here).
 * On the south, there was a cluster of houses where Well St enters, not enough to be a village in its own right, but Hackney village petered out before then.
 * On the west, it blends into Hackney Downs and ?. The east is bounded by the southern lump of Homerton.
 * Through the whole lot, Hackney Brook ran, dividing the villages and most of the development, was below that.

Any comments on that view? The current Georgian Hackney section is a little geographically challenged, hopping around what seems to be the metropolitan borough. I don't want to discourage the editor, but a lot of it seems to be taken wholesale from Hackney walks (copyright), and is repeated (verbatim) in a page on Clapton Square. Kbthompson 08:59, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

 * I've looked and Hackney Downs only really refers to the park, otherwise prove me wrong. I'm sorry i am still pursuing this but from what you have put above, shouldn't this whole area at least be named Hackney village? Simply south 11:24, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

Hackney Downs (ward) has an independent existence around the common, I'd have to look in the histories, but Hackney village didn't extend that far, and I don't think there was a village there. There was probably a 'grand house' in the way. The brook meandered up in that direction. Amhurst Road was driven through at the time of the railways (1850s), and took land from the houses on Church St (Narrow Way). Mid-1800s VH mentions long avenues of dwellings at Hackney Downs, threatened by the railways. You might be right, but 'Hackney village' has no modern existence (except possibly as an estate agent's dream). Hackney Central exists, and while not conterminous with Hackney village, it's as near as these things ever get. The pockets of Georgian development were located outside Hackney Central (except possibly for the square north of Well St (now surrounded by flats, see 'Lost Hackney'), and an early Georgian mansion on the west side of Mare Street, used as a social club). Hackney village is used in the Victoria History of Middx, but only really up to about the mid-19th, it would make sense, if it weren't for the houses inbetween. This 1805 map shows the relationship of the villages, and subsequent development. Kbthompson 16:18, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

Infobox UK place
A new, more concise infobox has been implemented for UK places. I've applied it here, but in checking I notice that the coordinates are wildly wrong, placing Hackney Central in the middle of London Fields. The pin in this case should at least be on Mare St, or the Narrow Way (I feel). Kbthompson 15:22, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

removed from →Early origins as being impossible to understand

 * The medieval village was centred on the 13th century Templar church of St Augustine, which gave Church Street its name - the modern Narrow Way - where it crossed Hackney Brook and met with the north end of Mare Street (originally near the site of the modern town hall). In common with much of Hackney, it developed along a single street - meeting Homerton and Clapton in the north; and along the line of Mare Street in the south. Where it crossed Cambridge Heath towards Bethnal Green.

If this info is important then please make it sensible. (I would rewrite it but I don't know what much of it is trying to say.) Thanks. Derekbd (talk) 04:08, 26 April 2011 (UTC)

Existential clause

An existential clause is a clause that refers to the existence or presence of something, such as "There is a God" and "There are boys in the yard". The use of such clauses can be considered analogous to existential quantification in predicate logic, which is often expressed with the phrase "There exist(s)...".

Different languages have different ways of forming and using existential clauses. For details on the English forms, see English grammar: There as pronoun.

Formation
Many languages form existential clauses without any particular marker by simply using forms of the normal copula verb (the equivalent of English be), the subject being the noun (phrase) referring to the thing whose existence is asserted. For example, the Finnish sentence Pihalla on poikia, meaning "There are boys in the yard", is literally "On the yard is boys". Some languages have a different verb for that purpose: Swedish finnas has Det finns pojkar på gården, literally "It is found boys on the yard". On the other hand, some languages do not require a copula at all, and sentences analogous to "In the yard boys" are used. Some languages use the verb have; for example Serbo-Croatian U dvorištu ima dječaka is literally "In the yard has boys".

Some languages form the negative of existential clauses irregularly; for example, in Russian, есть yest ("there is/are") is used in affirmative existential clauses (in the present tense), but the negative equivalent is нет nyet ("there is/are not"), used with the logical subject in the genitive case.

In English, existential clauses usually use the dummy subject construction (also known as expletive) with there (infinitive: there be), as in "There are boys in the yard", but there is sometimes omitted when the sentence begins with another adverbial (usually designating a place), as in "In my room (there) is a large box." Other languages with constructions similar to the English dummy subject include French (see il y a) and German, which uses es ist, es sind or es gibt, literally "it is", "it are", "it gives".

Indicating existence or presence
The principal meaning of existential clauses is to refer to the existence of something or the presence of something in a particular place or time. For example, "There is a God" asserts the existence of a God, but "There is a pen on the desk" asserts the presence or existence of a pen in a particular place.

Existential clauses can be modified like other clauses in terms of tense, negation, interrogative inversion, modality, finiteness, etc. For example, one can say "There was a God", "There is not a God" ("There is no God"), "Is there a God?", "There might be a God", "He was anxious for there to be a God" etc.

Pingelapese
An existential sentence is one of four structures associated within the Pingelapese language of Micronesia. The form heavily uses a post-verbal subject order and explains what exists or does not exist. Only a few Pingelapese verbs are used existential sentence structure: minae- "to exist", soh- "not to exist", dir- "to exist in large numbers", and daeri- "to be finished". All four verbs have a post-verbal subject in common and usually introduce new characters to a story. If a character is already known, the verb would be used in the preverbal position.

Indication of possession
In some languages, linguistic possession (in a broad sense) is indicated by existential clauses, rather than by a verb like have. For example, in Russian, "I have a friend" can be expressed by the sentence у меня есть друг u menya yest' drug, literally "at me there is a friend". Russian has a verb иметь imet' meaning "have", but it is less commonly used than the former method.

Other examples include Irish Tá peann agam "(There) is (a) pen at me" (for "I have a pen”). Hungarian Van egy halam "(There) is a fish-my" (for "I have a fish") and Turkish İki defterim var "two notebook-my (there) is" (for "I have two notebooks").

In Maltese, a change over time has been noted: "in the possessive construction, subject properties have been transferred diachronically from the possessed noun phrase to the possessor, while the possessor has all the subject properties except the form of the verb agreement that it triggers."

James Currie (politician)

James George Currie (November 24, 1827 – December 8, 1901 ) was speaker of the Legislature of Ontario from December 21, 1871, to March 29, 1873, and served as Liberal MLA for Welland from 1871 to 1879. His standing committee service included those for Private Bills, Railways, Privileges and Elections, and Standing Orders.

Currie was born in Toronto in 1827. He studied law and was called to the bar in 1853. He was county warden and mayor of St. Catharines from 1859 to 1863. In 1862, he was elected to the Legislative Council of the Province of Canada representing Niagara district in a by-election after the death of William Hamilton Merritt. He was a member of the Liberal Party of Ontario. Currie also served as Lieutenant-Colonel in the local militia. Currie ran unsuccessfully for the Niagara seat in the Ontario assembly in 1867. He served as St. Catharines mayor again from 1869 to 1870. He was elected to the provincial assembly in 1871 and became speaker in December of that year after Richard William Scott was named to cabinet. He resigned as speaker on March 29, 1873. In November 1873, he was named an agent at St. Catharines for the Canadian Department of Justice.

In 1877 and 1878, it was reported that he had misappropriated funds from his clients. Currie was defeated when he ran for reelection in 1879.

He died December 8, 1901.

 * Keep. Don't forget theres 44m Irish Americans, many of whom are interested in Irish enthnicity, so its a useful article for them. CGorman 14:11, 28 August 2005 (UTC)
 * I agree. In my opinion, this page is about the people who emigrated from Ireland to other countries since they form an important immigrant group. This page is not about Ireland (the rock in the middle of the sea per se). Are there sizeable french populations outside france ? Then it makes sense to have such a page for those people.

Necessity of Non-English reference
Regarding the (presumably) Finnish-language reference that was listed in this article a while ago: is this absolutely necessary for the article's information, or may equally detailed info be had from the (combination of) the other two sources? (knowing them, I have to admit I'd be surprised otherwise). If not essential, I think en.WKP policy (I should check this, I know...) is to list English-language refs only. --Wernher 13:11, 28 August 2005 (UTC)

 * Sorry for a lateish reply. Well, the Wikipedia insists to cite sources, and Lundahl's is the only book I've used to get information from, probably the best book on the subject in Finnish. I think the other sources have the same exact same stuff on broad terms, but I can't say if they have all of the weird little details. And for the life of me I can't figure out where to get the cited English books, I've never read them, and it's not like the small library around the corner has all of the microcomputer books from the eighties. =/ --wwwwolf (barks/growls) 13:55, 10 January 2006 (UTC)

$0401 or $0400?
Does the directory listing really begin at $0401? The start of the screen memory of the Commodore 64 is $0400, and it continues all the way to $07FF, although as the visible screen only consists of 1000 character locations, the last visible position is at $07E7. — J I P  | Talk 22:57, 9 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Yes, the article is correct, about both the address and the reason for it. Mirror Vax 23:32, 9 January 2006 (UTC)

Disk copy command
I seem to remember (wow, was it really twenty years ago?) that two-drive units like the 4040 implemented a command to copy the entire contents of one drive to the the other. Imagination? 121a0012 (talk) 06:14, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I'm pretty sure it's possible there was such command. I seem to remember reading about something like that. --wwwwolf (barks/growls) 20:50, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

 * This command is also available on the MSD-2 dual disk drive.  To invoke this on either the 4040 or the MSD-2, enter the following commands:

OPEN15,8,15 : PRINT#15,"D0=1":FOR T = 1 TO 10000:NEXT:CLOSE 15

 * The "D0=1" command causes the drive to duplicate the data on drive 1, and put it on drive 0.  It is possible in the example above that the T = 1 TO 10000 Loop isn't big enough.    But that is beside the point.   The command given, will duplicate the data.    Dexter Nextnumber (talk) 04:27, 29 December 2009 (UTC)

Save with replace question
One of the reasons the save with replace error was not found for a long time, even though many users kept complaining about it, was that the error channel was religiously inspected on an operation by operation regularity.

I have a question about this bug that, if answered, might improve the main article.

What was the nature of the Revision 4 correction in the 1571 drive? Which bytes were changed? How did this modify the usage of the buffers?

There also exists a series of 1572 dual disk drives. Unfortunately, I never got my hands on one. How did the 1572 behave compared to the 1571, assuming they both had the same number of buffers, I'd have thought the save-with-replace bug even bit the dual disk drives, and not just the single disk drives. Dexter Nextnumber (talk) 21:36, 4 December 2009 (UTC)

Last or Least?
Regardless of whether you have a single or dual disk drive, the drive number is usually found in the decimal numbers found at the start of the command when opening the channel. It's my understanding that the drive number is reduced to a single bit, zero or one, and saved up in the Last Most Recently Used table, known as LMRU which some people translate as "Least" Most Recently Used. It is supposed to be a Last In, First Out sort of table. The idea is that, when you are switching randomly from one file to another, there may come a time you have to steal a bit to represent Drive 0 or Drive 1. One or the other. And the LMRU table is supposed to give you access to the most recent drive in use, and if you want to use the one that is most distant, or most out of use, you should use the one that is buried the deepest. The table can also be used to access different buffers, especially if you have been opening (without closing) a series of random files.

The main article could be improved by discussing the concept of the LMRU table. Dexter Nextnumber (talk) 21:42, 4 December 2009 (UTC)

The & command
The main article could be improved by discussing the & command. Speaking of which, isn't the & command a left-over from the days of hard drives like the Commodore 4040? Dexter Nextnumber (talk) 08:15, 17 December 2009 (UTC)

Relative files
There used to be some controversy over relative files, and which utility programs could back them up without changing them.

I think the main article could be improved by describing the way relative files were created, and changed. It would also help to explain which copy programs had a hard time backing them up. Dexter Nextnumber (talk) 22:56, 29 January 2010 (UTC)

 * I believe that the book "INSIDE COMMODORE DOS" had some misspellings in its section dealing with REL files.  Be that as it may, the main page of this article could be improved if there were a link to an article on Commodore REL files.   The main page of this article says that REL files are sequential in nature, like SEQ files.   Okay, that may be true, but the data inside the REL file is supposed to be a series of Track & Sector links to the "Side Sectors" which are considered "data blocks."  The main page would be improved vastly if there were a discussion of how this worked.   Dexter Nextnumber (talk) 07:43, 23 March 2010 (UTC)

File types
The PKG USR and SEQ files were actually internally the same. You could do save"filename,u",8,1 and it would save your program to USR type of file. Likewise it was possible to write stream data into PKG file. It was also possible to LOAD"filename,s",8,1 to load a SEQ file. (This was hardly usefull, if the underlying file was not program tough.) The rel files could not be opened this way (or was it that they could be created with size zero, but not filled.) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.184.83.235 (talk) 14:02, 16 March 2010 (UTC)

 * I think you meant to say "PRG" filetype as opposed to "PKG" filetype.  And you are right that they are internally the same.   Dexter Nextnumber (talk) 07:44, 23 March 2010 (UTC)

File open modes
Is there and use of opening file in MODIFY mode except for fixing "splat" files?

Also it would worth to add information that files could be open in one of four modes:
 * READ
 * WRITE
 * APPEND
 * and MODIFY (but what does it do?)

--82.210.142.56 (talk) 22:00, 24 June 2010 (UTC)

Save-replace fix
The article currently states: "Commodore was made aware of Slaymaker's findings, and while they never issued an official update for the 1541 ROMs, they did fix the bug in Revision 4 of the 1571 ROMs."

I have two small problems with this. First, Commodore did issue official updates for this in December 1986: the release notes for the first upgrade to the 1541C firmware (i.e. 251968-02) specifically mention this fix, and thus 1541-II drives feature it as well since they're successors of this revision level (most 1541-II drives are 251968-03, with the exception of some Newtronics-equipped 1541-IIs that basically run on the older 901229-05, a regular 1541 firmware). And secondly, I have never seen a "Revision 4" of the 1571. The only known 1571 firmware revisions out there are 03 and 05. A "04" would be quite a find. Right now, the source of this "revision 4" seems to be Mr. Slaymaker's vague memory as quoted in a newsgroup from an e-mail (as sourced in one of the links at the bottom: "The 1571 ROMS starting with Rev 4, I believe, had the SAVE@ bug fixed"). My gut feeling is, he actually meant revision 5, since that would rather be the "fixed" or "updated" 1571 firmware revision.

Version discussion
Missing among the information in this article is a discussion regarding new/changed features per version of CBM DOS.

There's no contact information at all, no photographs of the product on sale (there are photographs, but no indications that it's a new Big Trak), the history section is, as mentioned above, taken straight from Wikipedia, and there's no indication that the company has staff or premises or anything. It would be a major feat to reproduce the Big Track nowadays and sell it for £33.99. Can anyone confirm that they have received one from the company? -Ashley Pomeroy (talk) 18:51, 10 September 2010 (UTC)

 * And in fact the photo of the keypad they use here, and on their eBay store - with their logo emblazoned across it - is Wikipedia's own image of the keypad, which was uploaded in 2006. -Ashley Pomeroy (talk) 18:53, 10 September 2010 (UTC)

 * Seen them in the shops Talltim (talk) 20:50, 10 September 2010 (UTC)

 * I don't doubt the product exists - but are these people selling it? How do we know it's not just a front that takes people's money and delivers nothing? Why does the article feature this particular shop? -Ashley Pomeroy (talk) 10:12, 11 September 2010 (UTC)

Just for reference it's for sale again in a few shops / online stores ,Argos and play.com to name two. Gingaman (talk) 07:44, 1 October 2010 (UTC)

The site that should be referenced for the Bigtrak 2010 is Zeon Ltd's site bigtrakisback.com (a development from their original location zeonltd.co.uk/bigtrak)Pjhirst (talk) 02:58, 9 November 2010 (UTC)

 * Have reverted recent edits to reference the bigtrackuk.com and bigtrack2010.co.uk sites (same company & site anyway) - this is clearly advertising by a reseller of Zeon Ltd's new bigtrack production. Pjhirst (talk) 10:22, 18 January 2011 (UTC)

From the article: Big Trak, BIG TRAK, bigtrak, Bigtrak, BigTrak. Are any of these correct? If so, which? Emeraude (talk) 21:31, 21 May 2012 (UTC)

Bamber Bridge railway station

Bamber Bridge railway station serves the village of Bamber Bridge in Lancashire, England. It is situated on the East Lancashire Line and is managed by Northern.

Description
Its railway station, in common with Lostock Hall, was once much larger and used by many more trains than today. Opened in 1846 by the Blackburn & Preston Railway, it became a junction four years later when the B&PR's successor the East Lancashire Railway opened a direct route to Preston that avoided the need to use the North Union Railway between Farington and Preston (and thus pay hefty tolls to the NUR company). The Liverpool, Ormskirk and Preston Railway had in the meantime arrived at Lostock Hall in 1849, putting the village on the main line from Blackburn to Liverpool.

These newer lines all fell victim to BR economies in the aftermath of the Beeching Axe - the direct line to Preston closing to all traffic in April 1972 (services henceforth reverted to using the original 1846 line through Lostock Hall then the 1908-built Farington Curve to reach the WCML) and the Blackburn to Liverpool trains ending on 6 October 1969. The line was resignalled in 1973 and is now controlled by the power box at Preston, although the distinctive signal box still remains to supervise three level crossings (one here locally and two further east by CCTV).

On the westbound platform, the station building built in 1846 survives but is no longer used as part of the station. The building has been disused recently but is now being converted into a drop-in centre for pensioners. The waiting room on the eastbound platform and the old pedestrian subway linking the two platforms have both been removed.

Bamber Bridge may not strictly be a "one-street village", but each train to pass through stops traffic; the level crossing cuts across the main road. Only Northern trains en route to and from Preston use Bamber Bridge. It has two platforms, but is unstaffed (so tickets must be purchased from the ticket machine or on the train when travelling from here). Passenger information screens are in operation at the station, along with a long-line P.A system to provide train running information.

As of January 2018, along with other Stations on this line, a new touch screen Ticket Machine was added to the Station.

Services
Monday to Saturdays, there is an hourly service from Bamber Bridge towards Preston westbound and Blackburn, Burnley and Colne, eastbound. This drops to two-hourly in each direction on Sundays, with westbound trains running to Blackpool South.

In addition to the basic service, two additional calls are provided by services on the York & Leeds to Blackpool North line during the morning peak period to give additional journey opportunities to Preston for commuters & shoppers. There is also one evening peak additional train from Preston to Blackburn and Leeds/York that stops here.

Talk:Projective vector field

Need to define projectives on any manifold first then specialise to spacetimes. ---Mpatel (talk) 13:12, August 28, 2005 (UTC)

Well, you need something that fixes the geodesic structure, so generalization to (semi) Riemannian manifolds is straight forward, done. [melli]146.186.134.176 (talk) 00:42, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

Given a vector field $$X=(X^a)$$ on a semi Riemannian manifold, what is $$X_{ab}$$? Is it related to your $$h_{ab}$$ or $$F_{ab}$$? if it were just $$X_{a;b}$$ then $$\psi$$ would be 0, right? [melli] 146.186.134.176 (talk) 00:33, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

I hope the dimensional estimates for the algebras (which are clearly local) do not depend on the signature of the metric. [melli]146.186.134.176 (talk) 01:06, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

Kathleen Hutchison

Kathleen Hutchison is a British television producer, whose credits include Playing the Field, Holby City (of which she was the Series Producer, then Executive Producer for many years) and Casualty @ Holby City.

EastEnders
On 21 September 2004, Hutchison was appointed Executive Producer of the BBC television soap opera EastEnders, after Executive Producer, Louise Berridge, resigned following prolonged critical and public criticism of the show.

Hutchison was appointed Executive Producer of EastEnders by Mal Young following a prolonged tenure as Executive Producer and critical acclaim for her work at "Holby". Within a few weeks of Hutchison's appointment Mal Young had moved on, being replaced by John Yorke, a previous Executive Producer of EastEnders.

Hutchison was given the task of reversing the fortunes of the BBC's flagship soap; in previous months viewing figures had suffered when up against ITV1's Emmerdale.

During her time at the soap Hutchison axed multiple characters, and reportedly ordered the rewriting of numerous scripts. In January 2005, Hutchison left the soap and commented: “I’ve enjoyed my brief time at EastEnders and wish the show the very best."

John Yorke, BBC Controller of Continuing Drama Series, took total control of the show himself and became acting Executive Producer for a short period, before appointing Kate Harwood. John Yorke said, “Kathleen has done a fantastic job of managing EastEnders during this period of change - I am very grateful to her for all her hard work and for leaving the show in such a strong position for us to build on.”

Other projects
Hutchison moved from drama to comedy in 2005 setting up The Hutch Management, working with stand-up comedians and developing comedy projects for stage and television including a pilot sketch show for Feelgood Fiction starring Nathan Caton in January 2007 and a 30 minute narrative comedy Standing-Up, written by Tommy Mack.

In February 2007, Hutchison joined television channel Paramount Comedy as Head of New Comedy. Her remit was to develop and nurture new talent from the comedy circuit. She has already worked with names such as Rob Rouse, We Are Klang and Jim Jefferies under the banner Shortcuts.

In summer 2007, Hutchison was a judge at the IF.Comedies, formerly the Perrier prize at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival.

He died in Elora in 1909.

Hieronyma

Hieronyma is a genus in the plant family Phyllanthaceae. It was first described as a genus in 1848. This family was formerly united with spurges, crotons, copperleaves, etc. (Euphorbiaceae), but have turned out to be well distinct. The genus is native to South America, Central America, southern Mexico, and the West Indies. It is dioecious, with male and female flowers on separate plants.

The spelling Hieronyma has been conserved; the spellings Hieronima and Hyeronima are spelling variants of this name.

Hieronyma is used locally as a foodplant, e.g. by the Nukak of Guaviare Department in the Amazon natural region of Colombia. Several species are threatened by deforestation.

• Hieronyma alchorneoides - S Mexico, C America, S America, W Indies

Seán Purcell

Seán Purcell (17 December 1928– 27 August 2005), was a Gaelic footballer who played at senior level for the Galway county team.

Best known as a centre half-forward, he played in most outfield positions during his career. In 2009 he was named in the Sunday Tribune's list of the "125 Most Influential People In GAA History".

Born in Tuam, County Galway, Purcell was educated at Tuam Christian Brothers School and St Jarlath's College. He played in the St Jarlath's College side that won the Hogan Cup in 1947, beating St Patrick's Grammar School, Armagh in the final at Croke Park in Dublin. His nickname "The Master" originated when he taught at Strawberry Hill National School in Dunmore.

His footballing career spanned three decades, from the 1940s to the 1960s. Purcell formed a successful on-field partnership with Frank Stockwell at Galway, culminating in the team winning their fourth All-Ireland championship in 1956 and leading to their nickname as the "Terrible Twins".

Further successes in which Purcell was involved include winning the League title in 1957, three Railway Cups, one of which he captained, the 1950 Sigerson Cup, appearances with the Combined Universities side and ten county titles with the Tuam Stars, including seven in a row from 1954 to 1960.

His involvement in the GAA continued long after his playing days as he served in a number of positions as team mentor and administrator in Galway.

In 1984, the GAA's centenary year, he was named on the GAA's Football Team of the Century and the organisation's Football Team of the Millennium in 1999. In 1984 the Sunday Independent invited readers to vote for their Team of the Century. Purcell won more votes than any other player. In 1991 he was inducted into the All-Stars All-Time Hall of Fame. In 2003, he was named on the St Jarlath's All Stars team.

Seán Purcell died on 27 August 2005, aged 76. His son, Robert Purcell, married Tessa Robinson daughter of former Irish President Mary Robinson, in 2005.

His grandson Simon Carr is a professional tennis player. Another grandson, Sam McCartan, has played Gaelic football at senior level for Westmeath. In 2022, his teenage grandson, Rory Purcell, died.

Barra de Navidad

Barra de Navidad is a small town located on the western coastline of the Mexican state of Jalisco. It belongs to the municipality of Cihuatlán. The town population was 4,266 according to the 2020 census.

Barra de Navidad ("Christmas Sandbar") is a small farming and fishing community located on the east end of the Bahía de Navidad, 60 km north of Manzanillo, Colima. In recent years, the Jalisco state government has promoted Barra as a tourist attraction of the Costalegre. The beachfront fronting the sandbar arks toward San Patricio, Jalisco, 4.5 kilometers to the west.

The history of "modern" Barra de Navidad dates back to the mid-16th century when the Spanish used it for ship building, repairs and a jumping off point to the Philippines. A monument has been erected as a memory to these journeys at the end of the jetty. Ruy López de Villalobos (1500–1544) fleet of six galleon ships, the Santiago, Jorge, San Antonio, San Cristóbal, San Martín, and San Juan, left Barra de Navidad with 370 to 400 men on November 1, 1542. On the early morning of November 21, 1564, armed with five ships and 500 soldiers, Miguel López de Legazpi, Lope Martín and sail-captain Andrés de Urdaneta also sailed from the port of Barra de Navidad.

The large lagoon behind Barra de Navidad is criss-crossed by small fishing boats gathering scallops and transporting visitors and locals from Barra to Isla Navidad and the Grand Bay Hotel, recently voted the Number One hotel/resort in Mexico by the Travel Channel. These boats (panga taxies) also carry passengers to and from the small Colima community of Colimilla where restaurants line the shore. In 2012 many of Barra de Navidad's seaside businesses were left in ruins after Hurricane Jova. The businesses recovered despite the damage and high tide. However, the number of visiting tourists has decreased substantially ever since.
