Talk:Temperature measurement

History
Sad to see such a core science article in such poor condition. History of temperature measurement would deserve a big key article by itself! This here is so stubby now that the reader is forced to just follow links to obvious main aspects, and left with no comparative/integrated guide. It would be particularly interesting to the general reader to have a lot of description of the history of the relationship between the competing F and C scales.-73.61.15.226 (talk) 15:11, 11 November 2017 (UTC)

Precision, accuracy, and reproducibility limits
The Temperature measurement article currently has little content about the maximum accuracy of current technology for measuring temperature. The Thermometer article currently has quite impressive relevant content, but even though it offers much general discussion, does not really explore the limits of the most sensitive tech. There is a link to a Precision thermometry article but it does not seem to currently exist, it just redirects. Please add content to these articles, about the Precision, accuracy, and reproducibility limits of the most sensitive equipment and techniques. There have been references in the media to measuring temps near absolute zero to many digits, but that probably only applies to that special case. What other temps can be measured most accurately?-73.61.15.243 (talk) 23:08, 12 November 2017 (UTC)

Swiftboating

The term swiftboating (also swift-boating or swift boating) is a pejorative American neologism used to describe an unfair or untrue political attack. The term is derived from the name of the organization "Swift Boat Veterans for Truth" (SBVT, later the Swift Vets and POWs for Truth) because of their widely publicized—and later discredited—political smear campaign  against 2004 U.S. presidential candidate John Kerry. Since the 2004 election, the term has come to commonly refer to a political attack that is dishonest, personal, and unfair.

Origin
The term "Swift Boat" itself refers to a class of United States Navy vessel used during the Vietnam War. During the 2004 presidential campaign, John Kerry's heroism under fire as a Swift Boat commander in Vietnam was a centerpiece of his campaign. A number of Vietnam veterans who had served on Swift Boats formed a 527 organization called Swift Boat Veterans for Truth (later renamed Swift Vets and POWs for Truth or SVPT) with the intent of discrediting his military record and attacking his subsequent antiwar activities as a member of Vietnam Veterans Against the War. The group produced a series of television ads and a bestselling book, Unfit for Command. The unsubstantiated charges against Kerry by the SVPT gave rise to the term "swiftboating" as a synonym for "the nastiest of campaign smears", "a slimy political attack", and, for many, "ugly, unprincipled slander". As the purpose of a tax-exempt 527 organization is "to focus on the issues" rather than "attack or defend a specific candidate", the SBVT was fined by the Federal Election Commission in 2004 for specifically attacking Kerry instead of focusing on political issues. The Swift Boat Veterans and media pundits objected to this use of the term to define a smear campaign.

Later use
Charges of "swiftboating" were made by supporters of both major candidates in the 2012 presidential election. Republican Party strategists compared attacks by the Obama campaign on Mitt Romney's tenure at Bain Capital to swiftboating: "It's very clear they are trying to re-create and take a page out for the 2004 Bush campaign." The term was also used by a representative of Barack Obama's re-election campaign to describe the documentary film Dishonorable Disclosures and an associated ad campaign released by the Special Operations OPSEC Education Fund on the topic of the death of Osama bin Laden.

The feminist Gloria Steinem has accused Donald Trump of swiftboating his rival Hillary Clinton during the 2016 presidential race, calling her 'Crooked Hillary', despite his record of much more frequent and severe lying.

Hillary Clinton compared Republicans' statements about Christine Blasey Ford during the Kavanaugh confirmation process to the "swift-boating of John Kerry".

The New York Times reported in 2008 that many Swift Boat veterans, "especially those who had nothing to do with the group that attacked Senator John Kerry's military record in the 2004 election—want their good name back, and the good names of the men not lucky enough to come home alive", expressed regret and dismay that the term "swift boat" has come to represent a political attack and "political chicanery" against a member of a different party.

Conservative objections and use
The use of this term as a pejorative has resulted in objections from some conservatives who object to the implied criticism of the tactics used by Swift Vets and POWs for Truth.

In 2006, conservative commentator Emmett Tyrrell denounced its repeated negative usage, saying it "is about to join such terms as McCarthyism and McCarthyite" as a "hate term". In a 2006 interview, John O'Neill, spokesman for Swift Vets and POWs for Truth, called the term's usage a "baseless smear against somebody's personal character".

Republican Newt Gingrich, putting his own twist on the neologism at a presidential campaign stop on January 1, 2012, said he felt he was being "Romney-boated" by the barrage of negative ads run against him. Fox News Radio host John Gibson has written a book titled How the Left Swiftboated America, in which he defines swiftboating as "the political trick of claiming to expose truth while in fact lying".

Going Overboard

Going Overboard is a 1989 American comedy film directed by Valerie Breiman, and stars Adam Sandler in his film debut, Burt Young, Allen Covert, Billy Zane, Terry Moore, Milton Berle, and Billy Bob Thornton in a small role. The film was originally released in 1989, but once Sandler became successful after appearing on Saturday Night Live and starring in the film Billy Madison, it was given a wider release by Vidmark Entertainment in 1995.

Plot
Shecky Moskowitz (Adam Sandler) is a struggling comedian working on a cruise ship. Shecky gets his chance to be the ship's comedian when it is thought that the regular comedian, Dickie Diamond (Scott LaRose), had fallen overboard and drowned. (Dickie actually locked himself in the men's room.) Shecky is nervous about performing, but King Neptune (Billy Zane) convinces him to go for the opportunity by telling Shecky about the power of laughter. Shecky's first performance is very unsuccessful as he is booed off the stage, he is especially heckled by the construction worker Dave (Billy Bob Thornton). However, after a lecture by Milton Berle, Shecky succeeds in making the audience laugh. At that point, the terrorists come on board and want to kill Miss Australia. Shecky, remembering the advice about the power of laughter, saves her by promising to put the assassins in a film.

Léo Major

Léo Major (January 23, 1921 – October 12, 2008) was a Canadian soldier who was the only Canadian and one of only three soldiers in the British Commonwealth to receive the Distinguished Conduct Medal (DCM) twice in separate wars.

Major earned his first DCM in World War II in 1945 after a successful reconnaissance mission during the liberation of the Dutch city of Zwolle. As he was sent to scout the city with one of his best friends, a firefight broke out in which his friend was killed. Major continued on to find that Zwolle was mostly deserted by the German occupational army. Thanks to his efforts, the city was spared the artillery fire that was planned the next day by the Allies. He received his second DCM during the Korean War for leading the capture of a key hill in 1951.

Life
Born on January 23, 1921, in New Bedford, Massachusetts, to French Canadian parents, Major moved with his family to Montreal before his first birthday. Due to a poor relationship with his father, he moved to live with an aunt at age 14. This relationship, combined with a lack of available work, led Major to join the Canadian army in 1940 to prove to his father that he was "somebody to be proud of".

World War II
Major was serving with the Régiment de la Chaudière, which landed on Juno beach in the Invasion of Normandy on June 6, 1944. During a reconnaissance mission on D-Day, Major captured a German halftrack by himself. The vehicle contained German communication equipment and secret codes. Days later, during his first encounter with an SS patrol, he killed four soldiers. However, one of them managed to ignite a phosphorus grenade; in the resulting explosion, Major lost one eye but continued to fight. He continued his service as a scout and a sniper by insisting he needed only one eye to sight his weapon. According to him, he "looked like a pirate".

Battle of the Scheldt
Major single-handedly captured 93 German soldiers during the Battle of the Scheldt in Zeeland in the southern Netherlands. According to the Ottawa Citizen, Major and his friend, Corporal Wilfrid Arsenault, were assigned to determine the fates of a company of recruits that had disappeared after being sent to capture a town; however, as Arsenault fell ill, Major went alone. After finding the company's abandoned equipment and determining they had been captured, Major entered a house to find shelter from the rain and the cold, when he spotted two German soldiers walking along a dike. He captured the first German, used him as bait to capture the other, and brought his captives to their commanding officer; the officer and his company, totaling around 100 men, surrendered, though three of the soldiers were killed by Major. In a nearby group of houses, SS troops, witnessing the company surrender, opened fire on them, killing seven and injuring some others. Major disregarded the enemy fire and continued escorting his prisoners to the Canadian front line, ordering a passing Canadian tank to fire on the SS troops. He marched back to camp with the surviving 93 prisoners.

Allegedly, Major was chosen to receive a Distinguished Conduct Medal. However, he declined the offer as, according to him, General Montgomery (who was to present him with the award) was "incompetent" and in no position to be giving out medals. Whether he actually got this nomination and why he would not have received it is not clear; The National Archives only contains records of his later DCM recommendation from 1945. An article in Trouw claims he received seven days off instead, which he spent in Belgium, and that he was not present to receive his DCM because his car would not start. However, Dirk Staat, conservator of the Nationaal Militair Museum, has done research on Major for two years and doubts the usual telling of the events, arguing that there were no reports of a DCM recommendation and that one person escorting 93 prisoners is unfathomably difficult: "'Die verhalen gaan rond inderdaad, dat hij voor de Slag om de Schelde ook een medaille ontving. De Distinguished Conduct Medal. Hij zou daar 93 Duitsers gevangen hebben genomen. En [de medaille] geweigerd hebben vanwege de generaal Montgomery. Of hij was te laat bij de uitreiking, of liever een paar dagen weg. Maar over dat alles is helemaal niets over terug te vinden. Major vocht mee in Zeeland, en hij zal ongetwijfeld effectief zijn geweest. Maar over zijn medaille lezen we niets. En vergis je niet; als iemand tien minuten te laat bij het avondappèl was, dan staat dat in de verslagen. Of dat ze dinsdag nieuwe schoenen krijgen. En dan zou over de medaille voor Major niets beschreven staan? Zou heel raar zijn, kan ik mij niet voorstellen. '""'Those stories are indeed doing the rounds, that he also received a medallion for the Battle of the Scheldt, the Distinguished Conduct Medal. He would have captured 93 soldiers there. He refused [the medal] because of General Montgomery. But you cannot find anything about all of that. Major fought in Zeeland, and undoubtedly he would have been competent. But about his medal we read nothing. And do not be mistaken; if someone came ten minutes too late to the evening roll call, then that is in the reports. Or that they get new shoes on Tuesday. And then there would be nothing noted down about the medal for Major? Would be really weird, I cannot imagine that. '"In February 1945, Major was helping a military chaplain load corpses from a destroyed Tiger II tank into a Universal Carrier in Keppeln, Germany. After they finished, the chaplain and the driver seated themselves in the front while Major jumped in the back of the vehicle. The carrier struck a land mine, the resulting explosion killing the chaplain and the driver and knocking Major unconscious. Major claimed to have remembered a loud blast, followed by his body being thrown into the air and smashing down hard on his back. Upon regaining consciousness, he awoke to find two concerned medical officers trying to assess his condition. He simply asked if the chaplain was okay. They did not answer his question, but transported him on a truck to a field hospital 30 mi away, stopping every 15 minutes to inject morphine to relieve the pain in his back.

Liberation of Zwolle
At the beginning of April 1945, the Régiment de la Chaudière were approaching the city of Zwolle, which was shown to have strong German resistance. On April 13, the regiment's commanding officer asked for two volunteers for a reconnaissance mission into Zwolle, their tasks being to scout the German force and, if possible, make contact with the Dutch Resistance, before an Allied artillery barrage could commence. Private Major and Corporal Arsenault stepped forward to accept the task. However, Major and Arsenault, wanting to spare the city from destruction, agreed to attempt to liberate the city themselves.

That night, Major and Arsenault entered the farmhouse of Hendrik van Gerner, who gave them rough positions of German emplacements near the railway tracks. After leaving the farmhouse, Arsenault was killed by German fire after accidentally giving away the pair's position. In a radio interview with RTV Zwolle, Major told that he became mad after that, but managed to control himself. Major killed two of the Germans, but the rest fled in a vehicle. Deciding to continue his mission alone, Major entered Zwolle near Sassenpoort.

What happened after that is unclear. Stories about Major's actions in Zwolle have been exaggerated and conflated with his other deeds, and there are several conflicting accounts of what actually happened, including several contradictory accounts from Major himself. However, what is certain is that Major spent several hours in Zwolle, the German military left the city, Major contacted the Dutch resistance, and he returned to camp with Arsenault's body.

Thanks to Major's efforts, the planned shelling of Zwolle was called off, and the Régiment de la Chaudière entered the city the next day without firing a single shot. For his actions, Major received the Distinguished Conduct Medal.

Differing accounts of Major's actions
The most popular and oft-cited story claims that Major, armed with several machine guns and a sack of grenades, launched a solo assault on Zwolle, using gunfire and grenade explosions to trick the German elements in the city into believing a large Canadian force was assaulting the city; after killing several German soldiers and making contact with the resistance, the German force fled, and Major returned to camp to report his findings to the commanding officer of the Chaudières. Certain versions of the story add or change details of what Major encountered in the city, such as him taking the driver of a German military vehicle hostage or assaulting the local SS headquarters. According to Major's official recommendation for the Distinguished Conduct Medal, written 20 May 1945:"To save as many Dutch lives as possible, it was necessary to know exactly the location of the enemy positions, many of which were not known. Private Leo Major and a Corporal Wilfred Arsenault from the scout platoon volunteered to enter the town and contact the underground movement to obtain the necessary information. At the entrance of the town, was a roadblock guarded by a small group of enemy. The patrol was discovered and the Corporal killed. Pte. Major killed two Germans and scattered the others. Undaunted by the death of a friend and comrade, he continued to patrol alone for 6 hours, contacting the underground and formed patrols of the local Dutch civilians, with the result that by morning the enemy garrison menaced from inside and from outside, were forced to withdraw as their position became untenable. To urge them on Pte. Major had the Gestapo headquarters set on fire. At 0400 hours 14 April 1945, this gallant soldier waded across a canal, after posting numerous patrols of the Dutch Resistance Movement at strategic points. On his way back, though wet and tired, he picked up the body of his Corporal and brought it in."According to an article written after Major's death from the Canadian Army Journal Vol. 11.3 Fall 2008:"Major was carrying two Sten guns and a sack of grenades. He arrived in the centre of Zwolle at about 0100 hours and found the streets silent and deserted. Here, he spotted a German machine-gun nest which, since the crew was sleeping, he promptly attacked and eliminated. He then found a German scout car and forced one of the Germans, who he had captured, to drive through the streets with the lights on, flying a white flag. For several hours, Major moved through the streets in this manner, shooting at any target he could find, making an impression that a large Canadian force had arrived. The citizens were awakened but were afraid to come out of their houses. By a stroke of luck, Private Major came across the head of the local resistance, Frits Kuipers, and three of his men. By now the Germans appeared to have fled the city in panic. The group therefore returned to the town hall and the resistance fighters brought the citizens out into the streets. The local radio station was used to announce that the town had been liberated. Major was exhausted but he had to complete his mission by bringing back the body of his comrade, Wilfrid Arsenault, to his lines. The resistance fighters arranged for a car to transport the body back, but were fired on by outposts of the Chaudières. Major was furious and climbed onto the top of the car so that he could be easily seen from a distance. In this manner, he returned to the Canadian lines to report the result of his mission to his commanding officer."

A similar version from a 2005 article from the Ottawa Citizen claims that Major "worked his way to the city centre", captured the driver of a German staff car outside a tavern, went inside the tavern with this captive, and disarmed the officer who was drinking inside. The two communicated in French, and Major learned the officer was from Alsace-Lorraine, "a region near France that was not terribly committed to Adolf Hitler's rabid designs"; finding the officer did not mean any harm, Major gave the officer his gun back: "I said the war is almost finished and I am a member of the advance party – I didn't say I was alone. I said it's a lovely town and I didn't want nobody to destroy that town." Major then "spent the next few hours engaging patrols whenever he could and setting off grenades where they would make noise, but do little damage", and killed four SS members during an attack on the local SS headquarters. By four in the morning, Major learned the Germans had left the city, and tried to signal the townsfolk to come outside; however, he found that this was difficult, as they were unsure of who he was. Linking up with the resistance, Major returned to camp with Arsenault's body. The Dutch newspaper Trouw offers a much less fantastical account of Major's actions, presenting the "solo assault" story as a legend that Major entertained and that the actual operation was much more simple, as the Germans had already mostly left: Hij bereikte de stad en liep er door uitgestorven straten. Hij klopte op deuren, maar niemand durfde open te doen. "Na een poos was ik zo moe dat ik niet meer helder denken kon. Maar ik had genoeg inlichtingen, nergens ontmoette ik vijanden." Hij liep in kringen rond, verliet de stad en kwam bij een boer die hij geruststelde door het woord CANADA aan de binnenkant van zijn muts aan te wijzen. Al snel had hij contact met de ondergrondse. Hij kon terug naar zijn eenheid met de melding dat de vijand Zwolle had verlaten. ... Maar in de decennia die volgden verwerd Leo Major volgens velen tot een 'Rambo' die wild schietend straat na straat veroverde op ’zeker duizend’ Duitsers die hardnekkig weerstand boden. Het was een verhaal dat hij – zo lachen zijn vrienden mild – op het laatst ook zelf steeds iets meer ging geloven.

He reached the city and walked through deserted streets. He knocked on doors, but nobody dared to open the doors. "After a while I was so tired that I couldn't think straight anymore. But I had enough information, and I encountered enemies nowhere." He walked around in circles, left the town and came to a farmer whom he reassured by pointing at the word CANADA in the inside of his hat. Quickly he came in contact with the underground resistance. He was able to return to his unit with the message that the enemy left Zwolle. ... But in the decades that followed Leo Major became a 'Rambo' who according to many conquered street after street wildly shooting around on 'certainly a thousand' Germans who persistently resisted. It was a story that he – so his friends mildly laugh – in the end started to believe a little bit himself. A 2017 article in Jonge Historici offers a similar account, stating that Major simply "walked through deserted streets and established contact with the underground resistance. After that he returned to his regiment, where at 9 o'clock he reported that the enemy had left the city."

Similarly, in an interview with De Stentor, Nationaal Militair Museum curator Dirk Staat, who had researched Major for two years, argued that much of the popularly-accepted story is a myth with no records or proof of any incident happening that night in Zwolle. Staat also believes the vehicle used by Major was not a hijacked German military vehicle, but rather just the car of the head of the local resistance, Frits Kuiper, which Major also used to ride back in the morning. [B]eschrijvingen dat hij als rambo de stad in vuur en vlam zette, terwijl hij om zich heen schoot en granaten door de stad gooide; dat beeld klopt denk ik niet. We hebben politierapporten van die nacht gelezen, en daarin lezen we niks terug over de onrust. ... De Duitsers die hij gezien heeft, zullen het staartje zijn van de terugtrekkende bezetter. ... [Het gebouw in brand steken] past precies in de modus operandi van vertrekkende Duitsers. Die doden gevangenen en vernietigen dossiers. En wat is effectiever om dossiers te vernietigen, dan het gebouw in brand te zetten?

Descriptions of him setting the city on fire like Rambo, while he was shooting around him and threw grenades through the city; I don't think that is the right image. We have read police reports about that night, and within we read nothing about the unrest. ... The Germans [Major] saw, would have been the tail end of the retreating occupation. ... [Setting the building on fire] fits the modus operandi of the retreating Germans. They kill prisoners and destroy dossiers. And what is more effective to destroy dossiers, than to set the building on fire? A radio program about Léo Major by RTV Zwolle agrees with Staat's argument that the Germans set fire to the house on the Potgietersingel, where the German police held office, to destroy their documents." The program included an interview with Major, who described the events of the night. He stated the first thing he did was go to the railroad station, because he "thought that's where the Germans would come in", and he had "heard from Hendriks van Gerner that some of the bridges were destroyed." He entered the city through the Sassenpoort. All the people he met "were either collaborators or German. And the German I met, most of them were drunk." He made noise using grenades and machine gun fire, and believed the noises he made startled the Germans into fleeing.

Korean War
After the conclusion of World War II, Major returned to his former job as a pipe fitter. He also got an operation to fix his back, which had bothered him since the landmine explosion in February 1945.

When the Korean War broke out, the Canadian government raised a force to join the United Nations Command in repelling the communist invasion. Major was called back and ended up in the Scout and Sniper Platoon of 2nd Battalion Royal 22e Régiment (R22eR) of the 25th Canadian Infantry Brigade, 1st Commonwealth Division. Major fought in the First Battle of Maryang San, where he received a bar to his Distinguished Conduct Medal for capturing and holding a key hill in November 1951.

Second Distinguished Conduct Medal
Hill 355, nicknamed Little Gibraltar, was a strategic feature, commanding the terrain for twenty miles around, so the Communists were determined to take it before the truce talks came to an agreement that would lock each side into their present positions. Hill 355 was held by the 3rd U.S. Infantry Division, who linked up with the R22eR on the Americans' western flank. On November 22, the Chinese 64th Army (around 40,000 men) began their attack: over the course of two days, the Americans were pushed back from Hill 355 by elements of the Chinese 190th and 191st Divisions. The 3rd U.S. Infantry Division tried to recapture the hill, but without any success, and the Chinese had moved to the nearby Hill 227, practically surrounding the Canadian forces.

To relieve pressure, an elite scout and sniper team led by Léo Major was brought up. Armed with Sten guns, Major and his 18 men, wearing running shoes to silence their movements, passed through enemy lines and crept up Hill 227 from the Chinese side. At a signal, Major's men opened fire, panicking the Chinese who were trying to understand why the enemy's fire was coming from the centre of their troops instead of from the outside. By 12:45 am, Major's team had retaken the hill. However, an hour later, the 190th and the 191st, totalling around 14,000 men, launched a counter-attack. Major was ordered to retreat, but refused and found scant cover for his men. He held the enemy off throughout the night, though they were so close to him that Major's own mortar bombs were practically falling on him. The commander of the mortar platoon, Captain Charly Forbes, later wrote that Major was "an audacious man ... not satisfied with the proximity of my barrage and asks to bring it closer...In effect, my barrage falls so close that I hear my bombs explode when he speaks to me on the radio." Major and his platoon held Hill 227 for three days until relieved by the U.S. 3rd Infantry Division.

Death and legacy
Major died in Longueuil on October 12, 2008, and was buried at the Last Post Fund National Field of Honour in Pointe-Claire, Quebec. He was survived by Pauline De Croiselle, his wife of 57 years; four children; and five grandchildren. A documentary film about his exploits, Léo Major, le fantôme borgne, has been produced in Montreal (Qc). To commemorate the 75th anniversary of Victory in Europe, Canada Post issued a stamp in honour of Major, "The one-eyed ghost", on April 29, 2020.

Honours

 * He was awarded Honorary citizenship of the City of Zwolle, Netherlands, on 14 April 2005.

Tony Award → Tony Awards – In line with the titling of the Academy Awards, which were moved as the article is as much about the ceremony as the awards themselves. But that's the other reason, because this article is not about a single award but a group of them that are referred to in the collective far more than in the singular, unless the category is being specified. That is, casually someone might say someone won "the Tony", but it's being used as a shorthand for "Tony Award for Best Actor in a Musical" or which ever category is relevant. The articles on the individual awards should remain singular, but this article, as with the Academy Awards, refers to all of them collectively, and should be plural. oknazevad (talk) 23:57, 26 November 2020 (UTC)

Milestones, Individuals, Playing the Opposite Sex
In the subheading "Award milestones" and the sub-subheading "Individuals," there's a point about people who have won Tonys for playing the opposite sex. Do we include cis man Neil Patrick Harris playing trans woman Hedwig, she of the angry inch? Do we include non-binary J. Harrison Ghee and Alex Newell playing a trans woman and a cis woman respectively? Point to consider: We're talking about sex and not gender. Should we just junk that entire part of the article? --IJVin (talk) 21:06, 17 July 2023 (UTC)

Hill played four years at Georgia Tech. He was used in a variety of offensive positions as a receiver/returner/back. His high in receiving was his senior year in 1978 when he caught 36 passes for 708 yards for four touchdowns. He also returned 19 kicks for 570 yards for a NCAA-leading 30.0 average. In four years combined, he scored fourteen touchdowns.

Football career

Hill was drafted in the 12th round by the Los Angeles Rams in 1979 as the 328th pick of 330 players. He was utilized for kick returns in most of the games with occasional time at receiver. Against the Seattle Seahawks, he caught his first passes as a receiver (two) along with scoring his first touchdown. In total, he returned fourteen kicks for 803 yards. Hill saw limited action in the postseason for the Rams that year, which saw them advance all the way to Super Bowl XIV. He caught one pass for 28 yards in the Super Bowl against the Pittsburgh Steelers. It was his only Super Bowl appearance, which the Rams lost 31–19. Hill was used selectively again in 1980, catching 19 passes for 416 yards with two touchdowns while returning 43 kicks for 880 yards and a touchdown (from 98 yards out), which ended up being the only kick return touchdown of his career. He caught a total of 23 passes in the next two combined seasons for the Rams (while having more returns, most notably returning 60 for 1,170 yards in 1981) before missing the entire 1983 season due to injury; when he returned, he returned 26 kicks for 543 yards while catching 14 passes for 390 yards. In 1985, he was traded to the Houston Oilers for draft picks after the emergence of receivers such as Henry Ellard.

In Hill's first season with Houston, he had more receptions than he did in five seasons with the Rams (due to the quarterback being Warren Moon, the prolific passer acquired by the team in 1984), catching 64 passes for 1,169 yards with nine touchdowns while being a returner no longer. He had another 1,000-yard season the following year with 65 catches on 1,112 yards. Between 1985 and 1991, Hill had over 900 receiving yards in each season while having five 1,000-yard seasons. This included a career high 10 touchdowns in 1988, which saw him reach the Pro Bowl for the first time ever. This was due to Houston's all-out passing attack, with the "Run and Shoot" usually having four wideouts and one running back on every play. He went to the Pro Bowl again in 1990 with 74 catches on 1,019 yards for five touchdowns. On September 30 of that year, Hill became the first player to score a touchdown in three different decades (beating James Lofton by one game), while Hill accounted for 77 yards receiving in Warren Moon's record 527-yard passing performance against the Kansas City Chiefs on December 16. During the 1991 season, Hill became the first player to have four 1,000-yard seasons after the age of 30 (later surpassed by Jerry Rice). He closed out his career with Houston in 1991 with a career high 90 receptions for 1,109 yards. When Hill left the Oilers, he had the most receptions in franchise history with 480. He was later passed by his teammates Ernest Givins and Haywood Jeffires (Frank Wycheck later passed him as well); Hill ranks fourth in receptions along with second in yards to Givins and 3rd in touchdowns. In his final game as an Oiler in the 1992 postseason, Hill caught two passes for 21 yards, with his nine-yard reception from Moon giving the Oilers an early 14–0 lead over the Denver Broncos; it was Hill's first and only postseason touchdown. However, the Broncos won 26–24.

Hill joined the Atlanta Falcons as a free agent. Aged 36, he caught 30 passes for 623 yards with three touchdowns. As it turned out, Hill's touchdown reception against the Dallas Cowboys on December 21 was his final touchdown of his career. He closed his career out in 1993 with 34 catches for 384 yards. In his career, Hill caught 634 passes for 9,831 yards with 60 touchdowns. He also returned 172 kickoffs for 3,460 yards and one touchdown.

St Mary's College, Hobart

St Mary's College is a Kindergarten to Year 12 Catholic, day school for girls, located on the northern city fringe of Hobart, Tasmania, Australia.

Although predominantly a girls’ school, St Mary's accepts both boys and girls until Grade 2, and currently caters for approximately 900 students from kindergarten to Year 12. It is located on the grounds of St Mary's Cathedral, next to the Junior School campus of St Virgil's College. Boys who attend St Mary's for Kindergarten to Year 2 generally transfer to St Virgil's College Junior School Campus located just next door.

St Mary's College is a member of the Alliance of Girls' Schools Australia. In 2008 St Mary's College celebrated its 140th birthday as a school of the Presentation Sisters. Its slogan to celebrate this year was "St Mary's College. A proud past. A strong future".

History
The college was founded by the Presentation Sisters in 1868, and although students are no longer exclusively taught by sisters of the order, they still administer the college. Originally there were two schools on the present-day campus – St Columba's (a free primary school for the poorer community) and Mt St Mary's. The two were eventually merged. The original convent and school-rooms are still on-site today.

Although it is primarily an all-girls school, until the opening of St Virgil's College in 1911, the college catered for boys in senior grades as well. The college only taught Preparatory to Grade 12 until 1996, when the kindergarten was opened. Until the 1990s the college's principal was always a member of the order, but the last of the Presentation Sisters to be Principal was Sister Barbara Amott. Sister Barbara was a teacher and has been an active member of St Mary's College for many years, and has been Principal on several occasions. The current Principal is Damien Messer.

Curriculum
St Mary's College is currently implementing the Australian Curriculum in grades Prep–10. All subjects are compulsory in grades 7 and 8. In grades 9 and 10, students choose a certain number of elective subjects, as well as having core subjects. In Grade 11/12, students choose subjects which must add up to a minimum of 700 hours per year. Many of these subjects are prerequisites for university courses.

Co-curriculum
The school offers a variety of after-school activities in both sporting and arts areas. Sports include hockey, badminton, soccer, and rowing. The rowing boat shed is jointly own by St Mary's College, St Virgil's College, and Guilford Young College, and is located in Newtown Bay. Other activities include the Junior and Senior School Choirs, the Senior Choral Group, the Senior Concert and Jazz bands, St Vincent de Paul Society, debating, and public speaking.

In the past, the college held a biannual arts festival, which went for the three days before Hobart Show Day. During this week the students were allowed to choose from a variety of activities that included making jewellery, painting murals, and learning to belly dance. The Long Lunch, a picnic lunch on the school lawns, happened every arts festival, as did "KickArts", a competition in which other local schools entered their rock bands.

Sport
St Mary's College is a member of the Sports Association of Tasmanian Independent Schools (SATIS).

SATIS premierships
St Mary's College has won the following SATIS premierships.

 * Athletics (2) – 2011, 2012

Richard Johnson (chaplain)

Richard Johnson (c. 1756 – 13 March 1827 in England) was the first Christian cleric in Australia.

Early life
Johnson was the son of John and Mary Johnson. He was born in Welton, Yorkshire and educated at Hull Grammar School under Joseph Milner. In 1780 he entered Magdalene College, Cambridge as a sizar and graduated in 1784. His first post was as curate of Boldre, where William Gilpin was vicar. After about a year in Boldre, Johnson moved to London to work as assistant to Henry Foster, an itinerant evangelical preacher.

Life in New South Wales
Johnson was appointed chaplain of the prison colony at New South Wales in 1786. This appointment was due, in large part, to the influence of the Eclectic Society and two notable men, John Newton and William Wilberforce, who were keen for a committed evangelical Christian to take the role of chaplain in the colony. Johnson and his wife Mary sailed with the First Fleet and arrived in Australia in 1788. In addition to guiding the spiritual life of convicts, soldiers and settlers in the new colony, Johnson was charged with providing education to the convicts.

At the first Christian service held at Sydney Cove on Sunday, 3 February 1788, Johnson took as his text Psalm 116:12-13: What shall I render unto the Lord for all his benefits towards me? I will take the cup of salvation, and call upon the name of the Lord.

As Governor Arthur Phillip was primarily concerned with finding means of feeding and housing the soldiers and convicts in the harsh conditions of the colony in its early years, labour could not be spared for the building of a church. Services were held in the open air and even four years later, when Johnson appealed to Phillip for churches at both Sydney and Parramatta, he had no success. Under lieutenant-governors Grose and Paterson, Johnson fared even worse. Grose made vague charges against him and Johnson made many complaints about the treatment he received.

He was given a grant of land where the suburb of Ashbury now stands and worked it so successfully with the help of some convict labour that, in November 1790, Captain Tench called him the best farmer in the country. He planted seeds of oranges and lemons he had obtained at Rio de Janeiro, which later on produced good crops of fruit, and occasional references are found to his having made a fortune by his farming; this is all probability an overstatement, though he sold his land and stock to good advantage when he left the colony.

In May 1789 the Johnsons took into their home an indigenous girl aged about 15, called Araboo or Boorong, who had survived the 1789 Sydney smallpox outbreak. She learned some English and some Western customs and visited the Johnsons after returning to her own people.

In 1790 he and Mary had a daughter, who was given the Aboriginal name Milbah. They also had a son in 1792.

In early 1793, Johnson cared for the ill chaplain of Malaspina's Spanish expedition, Fr José de Mesa, with, according to the expedition's journal, "a kindness, spirit of unity and a simplicity that were truly of the Gospel”.

In June 1793, tired of waiting on the authorities, he began to build a church himself, and by September, at a cost of about £67, completed a building capable of holding 500 people. Even allowing for the difference in the purchasing power of money and the comparative flimsiness of the structure, this was a remarkable achievement. This church was burnt down in 1798. Johnson, with his wife Mary, taught between 150 and 200 school children in this church.

An assistant chaplain, the Reverend Samuel Marsden, was appointed in the same year and arrived early in 1794; and henceforth Johnson had the support of a stronger personality than his own. In 1794 he published An Address to the Inhabitants of the Colonies established in New South Wales and Norfolk Island and, in 1800, obtained leave of absence to visit England. He sailed on the Buffalo in October and did not return to Australia. In June 1802 King in a dispatch said: "I understand that Rev'd Mr Johnson does not mean to return." Practically he retired in 1802, but so late as July 1805 he appears on a list of officers as "On leave in England, no successor or second clergyman appointed".

Return to England and later life
After returning to England, in about August 1801 Johnson took up a curacy with the Reverend Thomas Dykes of St John's, Kingston-upon-Hull. During this time he had opportunity to influence William Cowper, who became the third chaplain to New South Wales after being recruited by Samuel Marsden. In November 1803 Johnson was curate at Bunwell, Norfolk, a position he occupied until he moved to West Thurrock, Essex, in April 1809. In 1810 he was presented by the king to the united parishes of St Antholin and St John Baptist, in London. He never served as a curate at Ingham, despite oft-repeated claims to the contrary. The Richard Johnson who served at Ingham was a different person.

Johnson continued to take an interest in Australia, appearing before the House of Commons Select Committee on Transportation in 1812 and in 1815 he recommended John Youl to be chaplain at Port Dalrymple. He died on 13 March 1827.

Bayway Refinery

Bayway Refinery is a refining facility in the Port of New York and New Jersey, owned by Phillips 66. Located in Linden and Elizabeth, New Jersey, and bisected by Morses Creek, it is the northernmost refinery on the East Coast of the United States. The oil refinery converts crude oil (supplied by tanker ships from the North Sea, Canada and West Africa and by rail from the Bakken Formation in North Dakota) into gasoline, diesel fuel, jet fuel, propane and heating oil. As of 2007, the facility processed approximately 238000 oilbbl/d of crude oil, producing 145000 oilbbl/d of gasoline and 110000 oilbbl/d of distillates. Its products are delivered to East Coast customers via pipeline transport, barges, railcars and tank trucks.

The facility also houses a petrochemical plant which produces lubricants and additives and a polypropylene plant that produces over 775 million pounds of polypropylene per year. The refinery has its own railway container terminal and heliport.

The workers at the plant have been unionized under the International Brotherhood of Teamsters (Local No. 877) since 1960.

The refinery has had and continues to have environmental issues, culminating in the major $225 million Exxon Mobil-New Jersey Environmental Contamination settlement. A 2010 investigative report conducted by WABC-TV, the ABC flagship station in New York City, characterizes the Bayway Refinery as a "repeat offender" of environmental regulations.

History
In 1907, Standard Oil founder John D. Rockefeller acquired several hundred acres of the former Morse family estate between Linden and Elizabeth, New Jersey as the site for his latest refinery. Construction of temporary office buildings began on October 15, 1907 and work clearing the heavily wooded land began immediately. The cornerstone of the machine shop, the first permanent structure at the site, was laid on January 18, 1908, and construction continued throughout the year. The first crude stills at Bayway were completed in late 1908 and on January 2, 1909, they were symbolically fired up by William C. Koehler (c1880-1953). The facility began processing an initial 10000 oilbbl of crude oil per day. Capacity was expanded to an estimated 17176 oilbbl/d by 1911. Over the next several years the plant continued expanding and increasing capacity and workforce.

In 1911, Standard Oil was broken up into smaller units in accordance with the Sherman Antitrust Act. One of these successor companies was Standard Oil Company of New Jersey, the precursor to Esso and later Exxon, which retained the ownership of the Bayway facilities.

Bayway became a leading research facility within the S.O. New Jersey enterprise. It was the first facility in the United States to employ the use of hydrogenation process to get greater yields from its crude products, and in 1919 scientists at Bayway created the world's first petrochemical: isopropyl alcohol.

The Ethyl Corporation, a joint venture of General Motors and Standard Oil, built a plant for the manufacture of tetraethyl lead (TEL, the "lead" in leaded gasoline) at the refinery over the course of three months in 1924. Within the first two months of its operation, the facility had seventeen cases of severe lead poisoning leading to hallucinations and insanity, and then five deaths in quick succession. The plant was shut down by the state of New Jersey in October, and Standard Oil was forbidden to manufacture TEL there again without state permission.

During World War II, the plant constructed its first catalytic cracker, or "cat cracker", which went into operation on January 18, 1943. This development proved essential to the production of fuel to support the Allied war effort, especially high-octane aviation fuel, and also allowed the production of synthetic butyl rubber and materials used to manufacture explosives.

After the war, the use of coal for heating declined sharply in the United States. In 1947, Esso invested $26 million in a refinery expansion program to meet an increased post-war demand for gasoline and heating oil, and constructed a second, much larger catalytic cracker with an initial processing capacity of 49000 oilbbl/d, replacing the original 1943 unit. The "Cat" came online in October 1949 and was the largest in the world during the twentieth century, and as of 2008 was the largest in the western hemisphere.

In 1965 Enjay Chemical, a subsidiary of the Esso Chemical Company (which later became Exxon Chemical) in the Standard Oil Company New Jersey (known publicly mostly by the Esso, Enco and Humble brands) assumed all of the chemical processing assets and products at Bayway. In 1973, the Standard Oil Company of New Jersey was renamed Exxon, and the facility likewise became known as the Exxon Bayway Refinery.

On the night of December 5, 1970 a series of powerful explosions occurred at the refinery, resulting in multiple injuries but no fatalities in and around the plant. Windows were shattered as far away as Staten Island, and the explosion was felt more than thirty miles away.

1976 brought about the installation of the most iconic structure at the refinery, the Wet Gas Scrubber. Visible from the New Jersey Turnpike with its giant plumes of water vapor, this device eliminates 7-8 tons of dust per day as well as gases generated from the catalytic cracking process. To this day it is recognized as one of the most efficient and effective units of its kind in the world.

On the night of January 1–2, 1990, a cracked underwater pipeline leaked about 567,000 USgal of fuel oil into the Arthur Kill. Because the waterway was already so heavily industrialized, Exxon argued that it should not have to pay any damages. The court disagreed, ordering the company to pay $15 million in reparations.

On April 8, 1993, the Tosco Corporation finalized proceedings to purchase the refinery from Exxon for a sum of $175 million, although the Exxon Chemical Company continued to run the Chemical Plant. During this time Bayway was operated by Bayway Refining Company, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Tosco Corporation. Under the direction of Tosco, Bayway was able to reorganize and upgrade the facility, and years of operating at a loss for Exxon in the later 1980s were turned around swiftly.

The Morristown and Erie Railway became the contract switcher for the refinery in 1995, and set up the Bayshore Terminal Company to handle the management of 8,000 railroad cars full of various refinery products each year.

In 1999, the Infineum company (a joint project of Exxon Chemical, Shell International Chemicals and Shell Chemical) took over operation of the chemical plant. Infineum researches and produces crankcase lubricant additives, fuel additives, and specialty lubricant additives, as well as automatic transmission fluids, gear oils, and industrial oils.

Tosco was bought in 2001 by Phillips Petroleum, which merged with Conoco to form ConocoPhillips in 2002 and later spun off downstream, midstream and chemical assets into a new Phillips 66 company in 2012.

In 2003 a new polypropylene facility went online that produces 775 million pounds per year.

Environmental issues
The refinery was the famous toxic site in question in the 2015 legal settlement between New Jersey and ExxonMobil. In late 2003, the refinery came under scrutiny for a possibly abnormal cancer rate among its work population. As a result, local ABC affiliate WABC-TV (Channel 7), New York, ran a feature about the refinery. The refinery has since been subject to scrutiny by the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA).

The refinery has consistently been ranked among the worst polluters in the nation, and has been cited almost 200 times since 2005 for violation of state environmental laws. It is also ranked as the 32nd worst water polluter in the country.

2005 environmental control measures
Thanks to the terms of a settlement with the Department of Environmental Protection, ConocoPhillips stated that it would take the following actions at their Bayway facilities:

 * Install a cover on the wastewater separator or a new covered separator, and controls, by December 2008. This measure, which would cost approximately $8 million, would reduce emissions of volatile organic compounds, (VOCs) at the treatment unit by 95 percent.
 * Install a new fuel gas system by December 2010 to burn cleaner natural gas instead of fuel oil, reducing SO2 emissions by thousands of tons per year. This would cost $28 million to $38 million.
 * Install new pollution controls on heaters and boilers by December 2010 at cost of $20 million, reducing annual NOx emissions by approximately 900 tons.
 * Reduce emissions of VOCs by implementing an enhanced leak detection and repair program.
 * Reduce VOC and acid gas emissions by minimizing flaring.
 * Audit and reduce benzene emissions.

Webster Slaughter

Webster Melvin Slaughter (born October 19, 1964) is an American former professional football player who was a wide receiver in the National Football League (NFL) from 1986 to 1998. He played college football for the San Diego State Aztecs.

Early life
Slaughter was born in Stockton, California, where he attended Franklin High School. He was raised alongside five siblings by his mother after his father died at the age of 13. She worked as a nurse to support the family. Slaughter excelled in the sports of basketball, baseball, and track alongside the band and speech teams at high school. However, at the request of football coach Duke Pasquini, he played on the football team for his senior year despite his doubts due to his small size of 140 pounds. It resulted in an All-Conference selection. Upon graduating in 1982, he attended San Joaquin Delta College (after considering Cal State Stanislaus) for football and part-time baseball for two years before transferring to San Diego State University with a scholarship, where he played for two years. In two seasons, he caught a combined 122 passes for 1,647 yards and 14 touchdowns. He was a second-team All-America selection as a senior.

Pro football career
Cleveland Browns general manager Ernie Accorsi drafted Slaughter in the second round (43rd overall) of the 1986 NFL Draft, based on the strong recommendation of the Browns' Hall of Fame receiver Paul Warfield, who was an unofficial scout for the team in 1986. During his rookie season he was listed at 6'0" and 175 lbs, and played in all sixteen games. In his first season, he caught 40 passes for 577 yards and four touchdowns. Slaughter played in both games of the postseason for the Browns. He caught six passes for 86 yards in the 23-20 win over the New York Jets in the Divisional Round. His 37-yard catch near the sideline late in the fourth quarter proved crucial when Mark Moseley's field goal was successful to force overtime in the eventual victory. In the AFC Championship against the Denver Broncos, he caught just one pass for 20 yards after suffering a dislocated shoulder in the first quarter as the Browns lost 23-20. In 1987, he played in twelve games and caught 47 passes for seven touchdowns. The Browns met the Broncos again the AFC Championship game. Slaughter caught just four passes for 53 yards, but one of them was a 4-yard catch for a touchdown that made the game tied at 31 in the fourth quarter. The Browns lost the game 38-33.

He played just eight games in 1988, catching 30 passes for 462 yards and three touchdowns while dealing with a broken arm. However, he was ready for another postseason run. Facing the Houston Oilers in the Wild Card Round, Slaughter caught two touchdown passes to keep Cleveland in the game, narrowing deficits in the third quarter and fourth quarter despite catching a total of five passes for 58 yards. However, the Browns never recovered from losing the lead in the first quarter and lost 24-23. He had a breakout year in 1989, playing in all sixteen games and catching 65 passes for 1,236 yards and six touchdowns. He caught a pass from the 43 against the Chicago Bears when the Browns were at the 3-yard line in a 1989 game and ran all the way to the end zone to set a new record for longest Browns passing touchdown in team history that stood for a number of years. His receiving yards in a season was a Cleveland record until Braylon Edwards passed him in 2007. In the Divisional Round game for the playoffs, Slaughter and the Browns faced the Buffalo Bills. Slaughter caught a touchdown pass from 52 yards to give Cleveland a lead in the second quarter before catching another pass in the third for 44 yards and a ten-point lead. He caught a total of three passes for 114 yards and two touchdowns as Cleveland held on to win 34-30. In the AFC Championship Game against Denver, he caught just three passes for 36 yards in the 37-21 loss.

Slaughter caught 59 passes for 847 yards in 1990 for four touchdowns and played much of the same in his final year with Cleveland in 1991 with 64 catches for 906 yards and three scores. His highlight game in catches was in the December 22 game, when he caught eleven passes for 138 yards in a 17-10 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers. It was the only time in his career that he caught more than nine passes in a game. As a member of the Browns, Slaughter caught a total of 305 passes and 27 touchdowns in six seasons, earning the praise of Accorsi who stated "(He was) one of the best receivers the Browns ever had."

Slaughter left for the Houston Oilers (known for their Run and shoot offense) after the 1991 season ended due to a contract dispute that led to a lawsuit that went in favor of Slaughter and made him a free agent. The 1992 season saw Slaughter play in twelve games with nine as starter. He caught 39 passes for 486 yards for four touchdowns. The Oilers made the postseason and played the Buffalo Bills. He caught eight passes for 73 yards while scoring a touchdown that was the first of three touchdowns in the second quarter for Houston. They had a lead of 28-3 at halftime and were up by 32 in the third quarter, but Buffalo scored five straight touchdown passes from that point. When the score was 35–24, Slaughter tipped a ball off his hands that resulted in an interception by the Bills at the 23-yard line that saw them eventually score and narrow the game even further. The Bills stormed into the lead by three with 3:08 to go, but Slaughter caught an 18-yard pass on fourth down at the 34 to help set up a tying field goal. However, an interception in overtime set up Buffalo for the winning field goal that made the final score 41–38 in the largest comeback in NFL history. In 1993, he was targeted more and reaped the rewards for fourteen games, catching a career-high 77 passes for 904 yards for five touchdowns. He received his second and final Pro Bowl selection. Slaughter suffered an knee injury late in the season, which resulted in him being placed on injured reserve by the final game of the year that cost him a chance to play in the playoffs.

He played in sixteen games with twelve starts in the 1994 season, his last in Houston. He caught 68 passes for 846 yards and two touchdowns. He moved over to the Kansas City Chiefs and started seven games in 1995. He caught 34 passes for 514 yards and four touchdowns. Slaughter made his final postseason appearance in the 1996 playoffs for Kansas City. In a 10-7 loss, he caught two passes for 10 yards.

He moved to the New York Jets for 1996, where he played sparingly after being inactive for six weeks in the middle of the year, which resulted in 32 catches for 434 yards and two touchdowns. Slaughter retired after the 1996 season but returned with the San Diego Chargers in 1998. He played in ten games before getting hurt and placed on injured reserve after catching just one pass in his final game on November 15 against Baltimore. He participated in the 1999 training camp of the Baltimore Ravens, but he did not make the cut and retired afterwards. Slaughter finished his career with 563 receptions for 8,111 yards and 44 touchdowns, along with nine carries for 50 yards.

After football
Slaughter currently serves as an ordained minister, where he goes to senior living facilities and reads the Bible to residents. He has four children.

In 2020, he was selected as a new member of the Cleveland Browns Legends program; the ceremony took place in the 2021 season.

 This page is an archive of the proposed deletion of the article below. Further comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or on a Votes for Undeletion nomination). No further edits should be made to this page.

Jew slaughter
Nn band, only 30 hits for '"Jew slaughter" Alcoholocaust', no entry on allmusic or artistdirect, although both have entries for an album called Alcoholocaust, but by a band called the Piss Drunks. Zoe 23:16, August 23, 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. I had an embarassing number of hits with "Jew slaughter band" on Google, including a mention on the Anti-Defamation League website. (Link included on my rewrite.) I was also the person who undeleted this article when Lucky6.9 zapped it; I don't like this article any more than you, Zoe, but if Skrewdriver is included, this band should be also. -- llywrch 23:22, 23 August 2005 (UTC)
 * How come they don't show up on artistdirect and allmusic? Just being disgusting Nazis doesn't make them notable.  If their music was about puppies and kittens and they only had 30 Google hits and didn't show up on allmusic and artistdirect, would we be having this conversation?  Zoe 23:36, August 23, 2005 (UTC)
 * So what's the criteria here: over hundreds of hits on Google or a mention on those two websites? Not that I'll shed a tear about this article about these drunken hatemongers being deleted, but last time the standards for notability had been up for a vote, the number of Google hits was more important for a band than just where the band is mentioned. -- llywrch 00:38, 24 August 2005 (UTC)
 * The criteria is firmly established at WP:MUSIC Wikibofh 01:59, August 24, 2005 (UTC)
 * Which, as Doorjam points out below, can be used to defend the inclusion of this article. -- llywrch 18:17, 24 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete -- Skrewdriver at least gets an AMG entry. NN is still NN, regardless of their politics. --Howcheng 23:49, 23 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete notability not established (and after reseaching that filth I'm going for a shower) --Doc (?) 23:56, 23 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete - NE - Aleichem 23:59, 23 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Slaughter. NNBV. -- BD2412 talk 01:14, August 24, 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete: Does not meet any of the seven WP:MUSIC guidelines.  Wikibofh 01:59, August 24, 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep even though I want to throw up saying so. The fact is, they are notable per WP:MUSIC for being notable within their genre: white power, racist, anti-semitic rock.  Blech. JDoorjam 02:18, 24 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment: I'm not sure I'd categorize that as a genre. Wikibofh 03:31, August 24, 2005 (UTC)

 * I can't believe this is even up for debate. Yes, I pulled the trigger on this idiocy and I'd do it again in a heartbeat.  We play by rules.  Rules are for nice people.  These are not nice people.  We are giving them five days of free advertising.  I'm going away before I say what the hell I really think of being reverted on this.  - Lucky 6.9 02:32, 24 August 2005 (UTC)
 * What, exactly, do you mean by "rules are for nice people. These are not nice people"?  That disagreeing with their ideology means that it's not encyclopedic?  It sucks, but sometimes doing our job as wikipedians means recording the feats of racists. JDoorjam 03:34, 24 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Actually, I would disagree with Lucky if this were a band which had several releases and showed up in allmusic and artistdirect, but the fact that they don't is why I listed them and argued for their deletion, not their style of music. Zoe 05:11, August 24, 2005 (UTC)
 * Lucky, I hope your deletion of this article on sight was an isolated act. By listing this article here, Zoe followed procedure & behaved responsibly so that the fate of this article can be justified. Even if an article is indefensible nonsense, it still must needs to undergo a defined process on Wikipedia: it has to be listed on VfD or at least Speedy Delete first, where the rest of us contributors are given time to offer their input whether the article should be deleted. We do it this way not because Wikipedia is a democracy, but because it is a form of peer review, the primary rationale for using Wikiwiki software to build an encyclopedia. If you can't understand why we follow this process, maybe you should resign as Admin. -- llywrch 18:17, 24 August 2005 (UTC)
 * No, this isn't a democracy and I believe in the rules. I made a decision on a bit of filth that basically resolves to a few bits of data on which we've already spent entirely too much time discussing.  As far as resigning is concerned, I have entirely too much of said time, effort and brain cells invested in this site.  Including this article does not further the cause of this site nor can it serve as an object lesson to someone doing honest research on hate crimes.  Look at the arguments it's causing right now. - Lucky 6.9 19:03, 24 August 2005 (UTC)
 * What arguments? AFAICS, all of us are discussing this matter very civilly. Commendably, I would venture to say. But if you don't want to participate in discussion over the material & explain your own POV, then I would say you are going to leave Wikipedia out of frustration, & much sooner than you expect. -- llywrch 20:30, 24 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Zoe hit the nail on the head. We have lots of distasteful articles on other wastes of flesh who, despite the fact they're scum, deserve an article.  Using the lovely and talented Chancellor Hitler as an example, it would be patently ridiculous not to have an article on him.  I'm not debating the right for distasteful articles like this to exist.  Historical figures, living and dead, are fine for inclusion.  If, God forbid, these schmucks had a shred of notability, hey...let 'em stay.  These schmucks do not...and I'm using a Yiddish term on purpose.  I stand by my opinion since they're not only flaunting the rules, we're letting them do so. - Lucky 6.9 05:29, 24 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete or rewrite to establish notability, although I doubt that will happen -- Ryan Norton T 11:07, 24 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Utterly non-notable, fail WP:MUSIC. This shouldn't even be a discussion. Proto t c 11:19, 24 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. nn vanity, fails WP:MUSIC. Redwolf24 (talk) 07:50, 26 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. nn, fails WP:MUSIC > only one album Roodog2k 18:41, 26 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment as repugnant and disgusting as (I hope) we all find this group, we should not vote to delete based on their wretched views. Roodog2k 18:41, 26 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Weak Delete doesn't seem very notable. ADL mention is notable though. With more mainstream media coverage I would vote keep. Klonimus 09:23, 27 August 2005 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Engbrocksc. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Engbrocksc~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

Stanley Morgan

Stanley Douglas Morgan (born February 17, 1955) is an American former professional football player who was a wide receiver in the National Football League (NFL) for the New England Patriots and Indianapolis Colts. A "deep threat" receiver, he holds the NFL record (among receivers with at least 500 catches) with 19.2 yards per catch, and also holds the Patriots team record for total receiving yards in a career.

A four time Pro Bowl selection and two time All-Pro, he was selected to the New England Patriots team Hall of Fame, the team's highest honor, in 2007. Morgan was named to the New England Patriots 1970s and 1980s All Decade Teams.

In 2021, the Professional Football Researchers Association named Morgan to the PFRA Hall of Very Good Class of 2021.

Early career
Morgan played high school football at Easley High School in Easley, South Carolina. In 1972, his team won a state championship.

Morgan went on to play college football for the University of Tennessee, where he was an outstanding multi-position player, appearing in all 46 Volunteers games in his four-year career. As a freshman in 1973, he was used primarily as a wide receiver with 22 receptions for 522 yards and four touchdowns. In his breakthrough sophomore season, he had 128 rushes for 723 yards and 11 touchdowns, 10 catches for 234 and two touchdowns, and 29 punt returns including one touchdown, for an SEC-leading 84 points. He made the All-SEC team in 1974 as a wide receiver (UPI) and a running back (AP2). His 1,587 all-purpose yards that year remained a school record until 1987. His junior year, Morgan was used as a running back (133 carries for 809 yards and 8 touchdowns) and also a kick returner. In a game against Maryland he scored three touchdowns, including a 50-yard run and 70-yard punt return. He also became the first Volunteer to rush for 200 yards in a game with 201 against Hawaii. His senior year, he balanced his time more, finishing second on the team in both rushing (90 carries for 388 yards and 9 touchdowns to Bobby Emmons' 462) and receiving (14 catches for 317 yards and 2 touchdowns to Larry Seivers 737). He had 201 yards receiving against TCU, the second most at the time. His 11 touchdowns that season placed Morgan second in the SEC to LSU's Terry Robiskie, and earned him 1976 All-SEC honors as a running back (AP) and receiver (UPI).

College statistics
He holds the all-purpose yards record for the University of Tennessee, which stands at 4,642, and led Tennessee in that category all four seasons. He shares the modern record for career touchdowns with 39, his 28 rushing touchdowns is third all-time, and his 1,615 combined return yards is 5th. Morgan was inducted into the University of Tennessee Hall of Fame in 2000.

Professional career
Morgan was selected by the New England Patriots in the first round of the 1977 NFL draft (25th overall). Despite being used primarily as a running back after his freshman year, Morgan's exceptional speed helped him transition back to wide receiver. In his rookie season, he had 21 receptions for 443 yards and three touchdowns. In the third quarter of a Week 12 game against the Baltimore Colts in the 1979 season, he had a 80-yard punt return for a touchdown in the 50–21 win. He averaged over 20 yards per reception his first six seasons, with a career-high and franchise-record 24.1 yards per reception in 1978. He led the NFL in yards per reception in 1979, 1980 and 1981, and ended his career with the three best seasons in that category for a Patriots receiver (and six of the top 12). In a 1978 game against the Baltimore Colts, Morgan had five receptions for a franchise-record 170 yards; he broke his own record in 1981 against the Miami Dolphins with five receptions for 182 yards, a mark that stood for 17 years.

Morgan led the NFL in receiving touchdowns in 1979 with a then-franchise record 12. Morgan topped 1,000 receiving yards a then franchise-record three times (1979, 1981 & 1986). His best season as a Patriot was 1986 when he caught 84 passes for a then-franchise-record 1,491 yards and 10 touchdowns, leading the Patriots to the AFC East title. Morgan appeared in four Pro Bowls (1979, 1980, 1986 & 1987) and was selected 2nd Team All-Pro in 1980 and 1986. Morgan was a member of the 1985 AFC Champion New England Patriots, and caught six passes for 51 yards in Super Bowl XX, a 46–10 loss to the Chicago Bears. In Week 3 of the 1986 season, Morgan had seven receptions for 161 yards and a career-high three touchdowns in a 38–31 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. In the following season's Divisional Round, he had three receptions for 100 yards and two touchdowns in a 22–17 loss to the Denver Broncos. After 13 seasons with New England, he was signed by the Indianapolis where he played just one season. He finished his final NFL season with 23 receptions for 364 yards and five touchdowns. At the time, he held the franchise record in every receiving category with 534 catches (now fourth to Wes Welker, Julian Edelman and Troy Brown) for 10,352 yards (still the franchise record) and 67 touchdowns. (now second to Rob Gronkowski). He also has the franchise record with 38 games with 100+ receiving yards, 10,479 yards from scrimmage, and is second to Kevin Faulk with 11,471 all-purpose yards. He finished his career with 557 receptions for 10,716 yards (19.2 yards per catch) and 72 touchdowns (solidly in the all-time NFL top 100 in all four categories), along with 127 rushing yards and 989 combined return yards.

Morgan was inducted into the New England Patriots Hall of Fame in 2007.

In 2021, The Athletic named him the best #25 pick since the AFL-NFL merger, and noted that many of his teammates were rankled by his absence from the Pro Football Hall of Fame despite having more receiving yards and receiving touchdowns than many of his contemporaries.

Coaching career
Morgan was wide receivers coach for the XFL's Memphis Maniax.
