Talk:Gulivoire Park, Indiana

This area was NEVER called gulivoire park. It is and always has been named: Gilmer Park. It was subdivided from property owned by Mr. Gilmer. I know this because I lived there. I also looked up the records in St. Joseph County.

PLEASE correct this error. It is driving us all crazy. Thanks, Hope Vollmer Hope Vollmer (talk) 20:59, 28 November 2014 (UTC)

This area is called Gilmer Park. Evidently, someone with poor eyesight copied the name down incorrectly and it has been reproduced incorrectly REPEATEDLY! There are still a few maps (printed) which have it correctly listed, such as the DeLorme grid map2601:242:C101:8770:A543:516A:EF6D:B7F2 (talk) 13:55, 18 July 2016 (UTC)

 * I reverted your unsourced edits. Gilmer Park is not Gulivoire Park, it appears to be a seperate unincorporated community, that is not a CDP like Gulivoire Park is. Evking22 (talk) 20:51, 6 November 2016 (UTC)

Request Edit
Hi, You have an area of land in St. Joseph County Indiana listed as Gulivoire park. I would like to know how it came about this name because it has always been referred to by residents as GILMER PARK. Approximately 25 years ago it was referred to as Gilmer on weather maps, etc. Can you tell me how this changed? I am researching for an article. I see that it shows Gilmer Park as a subdivision of this area but believe that is inaccurate. People who live is other subdivions in this area have always referred to it as GILMER Park. Can you please let me know how this came to be. I have found a logical explanation of who Gilmer might be but nothing of Gulivoire. Thank you 24.1.134.103 (talk) 15:44, 2 November 2022 (UTC)

Roman Catholic Diocese of Mostar-Duvno

The Diocese of Mostar-Duvno (Dioecesis Mandentriensis-Dulminiensis) is a Latin Church diocese of the Catholic Church in Bosnia and Herzegovina. It encompasses northern Herzegovina. The episcopal seat is in Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina. It was formed on 5 July 1881, when the Apostolic Vicariate of Herzegovina was elevated to the diocese. It is the largest Catholic diocese in Bosnia and Herzegovina by the number of Catholics.

The Diocese of Mostar-Duvno also retains the episcopal tradition from the Diocese of Duvno, an antique diocese first mentioned in 591, suppressed in the 7th century and reestablished in the 14th century.

The seat of the diocese is the Cathedral of Mary, Mother of the Church. The diocese releases a monthly magazine Crkva na kamenu.

The diocese covers area of 8368 km2, with 175,395 Catholics in 66 parishes of the diocese. There are 67 diocesan priests. The Franciscan Province of Herzegovina is serving 29 parishes.

The current bishop of Mostar-Duvno is Petar Palić. He also serves as Apostolic Administrator of Trebinje-Mrkan, which is administered by the bishops of Mostar-Duvno since 1890.

Roman Empire and the Middle Ages
During the Roman Empire, on the territory of the present-day Diocese of Mostar-Duvno, there were two dioceses: the Duvno and Narona-Sarsenterum. The Diocese of Duvno (Delminium) was first mentioned in 591, by Pope Gregory the Great. Venantius of Salona was martyred on the territory of the Diocese of Duvno in the 3rd century.

The Diocese of Duvno was suppressed in the 7th century, but re-established in 1337 by Pope Benedict XII as a defence against the Bosnian Church which was widespread in the Kingdom of Bosnia and was expending its influence on the territory of Croatia.

Ottoman rule
In 1482, Herzegovina was conquered by the Ottomans. Many people fled after the conquest or migrated later. In the 17th century, bishops in West Herzegovina were no longer present among the population, so the bishop of Makarska expanded his jurisdictions over West Herzegovina, including the Diocese of Duvno.

In 1709 and 1722, there were two petitions from the Catholics from Bosnia and Herzegovina to the Propaganda to send them a bishop that would reside among them. In 1722, the Propaganda tried to return the seat of the Bishop of Duvno that would have the jurisdiction over them, asking for the advice from the archbishops of Split and Zadar as well as the bishop of Makarska, however, they opposed claiming that the "Church of Duvno is canonically united" with their dioceses. On a session of the Propaganda from April 1722, it was concluded that the Propaganda could draw the new borders of the Diocese of Duvno, however, no further efforts were made on the matter.

The Catholics of Bosnia and Herzegovina continued sending the petitions to the Propaganda in 1723, 1729 and 1734. In 1734, the Propaganda started to study the matter inquiring about the status of Catholics in Bosnia and Herzegovina and the Diocese of Duvno. They asked the nuncio in Vienna, Austrian Empire to discuss the issue with the bishop of Bosnia who resided in Đakovo since the beginning of the 13th century, about establishing the new diocese. The Propaganda had another session on the matter in June 1735 and discussed the proposition of the Archbishop of Zadar about the reestablishment of the Diocese of Duvno. They also received an answer from the nuncio who informed them that the Austrian Emperor will not object to sending an apostolic vicar to Bosnia. Finally, the Propaganda agreed to grant the requests from the Catholics of Bosnia and Herzegovina, asking the archbishop of Zadar to propose them a suitable bishop.

The archbishop of Zadar made a suggestion that the jurisdiction of the apostolic vicariate should include the territory of the Diocese of Duvno, without an appointment of a special bishop of Duvno, in order to avoid the conflict with the archbishop of Split and bishop of Makarska. Finally, on 25 September 1735, Pope Clement XII granted the establishment of the Apostolic Vicariate of Bosnia.

The new Apostolic Vicar Bishop Mate Delivić, a Franciscan, made an apostolic visitation in whole Bosnia in 1736–37, but not in Herzegovina, due to the obstruction from the bishop of Makarska. Thus the new dispute arose between the bishop of Makarska and the archbishop of Split (who controlled parts of the territory around Livno) on one side, and the apostolic vicar of Bosnia and the other. The bishop of Makarska and the archbishop of Split tried to maintain their influence appointing the diocesan clergy in parishes, trying to replace the Franciscans. The new Apostolic Vicar, also a Franciscan, Bishop Pavao Dragičević, instructed the Franciscans that they musn't allowed any church function to any priest without his approval.

Bishop Stjepan Blašković of Makarska proposed a compromise solution to the Propaganda in 1759, that included the establishment of another diocese seated in Mostar that would include the territory of Herzegovina. The proposal was denied by the Propaganda.

Apostolic Vicariate of Herzegovina

There is no document that would indicate the exact date of the establishment of the Apostolic Vicariate in Herzegovina. Herzegovinian Franciscans, mostly from the monastery in Kreševo, who took pastoral care over Herzegovina, decided to establish their own monastery in Herzegovina in Široki Brijeg in 1840. Leaders of this initiative were Nikola Kordić, Anđeo Kraljević and Ilija Vidošević. At the time, Apostolic Vicar of Bosnia Rafael Barišić had an uneasy relationship with the Bosnian Franciscans. The Herzegovinian Franciscans established contact with Vizier of Herzegovina Ali Pasha Rizvanbegović was granted his own eyalet by the Ottoman sultan for his loyalty during the Bosnian uprising. The Franciscans considered that they will build their own monastery faster if the apostolic vicar would come to Herzegovina.

The vicar of Čerigaj friar Ilija Vidošević wrote to Bishop Rafael about the idea of establishing a separate Herzegovinian apostolic vicariate, an idea also supported by Ali Pasha. In 1843, Bishop Rafael returned from a trip in Albania and stayed in Čerigaj, where Fr. Ilija helped him to establish a connection with Ali Pasha. In 1844, the Church authorities allowed the Franciscans to build a monastery in Široki Brijeg, so the Herzegovinian Franciscans left their former monasteries to build a new one. In 1845, Bishop Rafael wrote to the Propaganda to allow him to move to Herzegovina, stating that form there, he would also serve the Diocese of Trebinje-Mrkan and that Catholics and Muslims there "all love him and want him, including the Vizier".

Their main argument for the establishment of a special vicariate was the number of parishes and the faithful Catholics in Herzegovina. According to a report from Bishop Augustin Miletić from 1818–19, Herzegovina had 8 parishes and 3100 Catholic families, with 20.223 Catholics in total. Ten years later, the same bishop reported that there were 51.744 Catholics, a third of the total number of Catholics in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

On 29 October 1845, Bishop Rafael informed the Propaganda that he will renounce his office as Apostolic Vicar in Bosnia. Rome and Istanbul entered the negotiations about the seat of Bishop Rafael, and both were compliant about his transfer to Herzegovina. The Church's negotiator was Mons. Andon Bedros IX Hassoun. The secretary of the Propaganda wrote to Bishop Rafael on 13 March 1846, informing him about the success in the negotiations and called him to resign from the office of the Apostolic Vicar of Bosnia "as soon as possible", which he did.

On 29 April 1846, the Propaganda informed Bishop Rafael that he should move to Herzegovina immediately after he receives a ferman of approval from the Sultan. Around the same day, Bishop Rafael, at the time in Istanbul, received the ferman, as well as two letters of approval from Ali Pasha. Bishop Rafael was granted a number of privileges, including the guarantee of freedom of religion. He informed the Propaganda about the approval on 26 May 1846. He left Istanbul for Trieste two days later and arrived in Herzegovina on 18 June 1846. The episcopal residence was being built in Vukodol near Mostar, while the Bishop resided in Seonica near Županjac (Duvno, present-day Tomislavgrad), where he established his curia. As the existing land parcel in Vukodol was too small for a residence, Ali Pasha bought privately owned land from a local Muslim and granted it to the Vicariate, with strong opposition from the Muslim locals. Ali Pasha also provided the protection during the construction. The construction was completed in the beginning of 1851, and Bishop Rafael moved there in June 1851.

After bishop moved in Mostar, the religious life of the local Catholics flourished. The Catholics from the neighboring hills around Mostar returned to the city and became involved in the public, cultural and political life of the city.

On 7 December 1864, Bishop Rafael was succeeded by Fr. Anđeo Kraljević, also a Franciscan and Custos of the Franciscan Custody of Herzegovina. He was consecrated a bishop in Zadar on 25 March 1865 and installed as apostolic vicar on 13 June 1865. Bishop Anđeo was one of the leaders of the initiative for the establishment of the Apostolic Vicariate in Herzegovina back in the 1840s.

Bishop Anđeo started the construction of the cathedral church, initiated by Bishop Anđeo. On 7 March 1866, he blessed the cornerstone of the church, which was finally built in 1872, when the bishop consecrated it to the apostles Peter and Paul. Thus the seat of the vicariate was moved from Vukodol to the new church. The next year, 1873, the parish residence was built next to it.

Bishop Anđeo entered into a conflict with the Franciscan Custody of Herzegovina, due to the Franciscans controlling all of the parishes in Herzegovina, while Bishop Anđeo, even though a Franciscan himself, wanted to have diocesan clergy at his disposal. In 1878, he wrote to the nuncio in Vienna about the necessity of the introduction of the diocesan clergy in the vicariate because the head of the Franciscan Custody had all authority, with the apostolic vicar being only a figurehead that confirms his decisions. He also asked him to lobby with the Holy See to establish a diocese so he can found new parishes that will be controlled by the diocesan clergy, with the Franciscans retaining the rest of parishes.

The Franciscans of Herzegovina were on bad terms with the Bishop Anđeo, claiming he did not give them enough of the collected alms for the construction of the monastery in Humac. An anonymous letter was sent to Emperor Franz Joseph of Austria-Hungary, claiming the bishop is giving donations sent to him by Austria-Hungary to the Ottomans and accused him of being a turkophile. The Franciscan Custody barred itself from this letter. In February 1877, Bishop Anđeo requested from the Propaganda to send an apostolic visitor in Herzegovina and accused Paškal Buconjić, at the time guardian of the Humac monastery, of negligence towards the parishes and the Herzegovinian Franciscans of taking the payment for maintenance by force from the believers during the Easter Communion. The Congregation named Bishop Casimir Forlani the apostolic visitor, and he arrived in Mostar in February the next year. Forlani finished the report in May 1878, and advised Bishop to act in agreement with the Franciscans and to record revenues and expenditures, as well as to help the construction of the monastery in Humac. The question of the parishes remained unresolved.

Bishop Anđeo Kraljević died on 27 July 1879 while on a chrismian visitation in Konjic. Herzegovinian Franciscans' choice for his succession was Fr. Paškal Buconjić. Due to his loyalty to Austria-Hungary, the Austrian-Hungarian authorities lobbied for Fr. Paškal to succeed Bishop Anđeo, with the recommendation from the apostolic vicar of Bosnia, Bishop Paškal Vuičić. Pope Leo XIII approved his nomination and issued two decrees on 30 January 1880, one by which he appointed Fr. Paškal the apostolic vicar and the other by which he was appointed a titular bishop of Magydus. In order to enhance the connection between Herzegovina and Croatia, Fr. Paškal was consecrated a bishop in Zagreb by the Archbishop of Zagreb Cardinal Josip Mihalović on 19 March 1880, after which Bishop Paškal visited Emperor in Vienna and Pope in Rome. He was finally installed as the apostolic vicar on 25 April 1880. His episcopal motto was "All for the faith and homeland".

His choice to be consecrated in Zagreb and not by some neighbouring bishops, enabled Herzegovina to eliminate the dominance of the Bosnian Franciscans, who, with the help from Bishop of Đakovo Josip Juraj Strossmayer, tried to control it. Bishop Paškal worked steadily on his career. With the Austrian-Hungarian occupation of Bosnia and Herzegovina in 1878, the chances for Buconjić to become a residential bishop with the reintroduction of the regular Church hierarchy became palpable, unlike those of the Apostolic Vicar of Bosnia Bishop Paškal Vuičić.

In March 1880, Cardinal Mihalović and Bishop Paškal discussed the organisation of the Church in Bosnia and Herzegovina. While in Vienna during the spring of 1880, Bishop Paškal met with Apostolic Nuncio to Austria-Hungary, Cardinal Domenico Jacobini, who later consulted Cardinal Josip Mihalović about the organisation of the Church in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Both of them became impressed with Bishop Paškal.

Bishop Paškal Buconjić

With the Austrian-Hungarian occupation of Bosnia and Herzegovina in 1878, and signing of the Convention between Austria-Hungary and the Holy See on 8 June 1881, the ground for episcopal nominations was established. According to the convention, the Emperor had an exclusive right on the bishop appointment in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Pope Leo XIII with the apostolic bull Ex hac augusta from 5 July 1881, restored the regular Church hierarchy in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Pope established the Archdiocese of Vrhbosna with the seat in Sarajevo and subordinated to it three other dioceses: the newly established Diocese of Banja Luka, the already existing Diocese of Trebinje-Mrkan (under the apostolic administration from the bishop of Dubrovnik at the time) and the Diocese of Mostar-Duvno, to which he added the title of bishop of Duvno as well. The Diocese of Mostar-Duvno encompassed the territory of the Apostolic Vicariate of Herzegovina, which was thus abolished. At the time of its establishment, the Diocese of Mostar-Duvno had 130,000 Catholics.

Due to his previous pro-Austrian stances, Minister of Finances Josip Szlávy nominated Bishop Paškal for the post of the residential bishop of Mostar-Duvno to the Emperor, who agreed and appointed Bishop Paškal the new residential bishop on 9 October 1881. The Emperor's appointment was sent to Rome for the official confirmation and Pope Leo XIII proclaimed Bishop Paškal the residential bishop on 18 November 1881, at the same time resolving him of the title of Bishop of Magydus.

As a bishop, Buconjić favored the Franciscan Custody, more than his diocese. Instead of opening seminaries for the education of the diocesan clergy, Buconjić helped founding two Franciscan seminaries, one as a gymnasium in Travnik, opened in 1882, and the other in Sarajevo as a theology seminary, opened in 1893. Only five diocesan priests have been ordained during his episcopate, compared to over 70 Franciscans being ordained.

He also gave away some of the diocesan property to the Custody. He consecrated the cornerstone of the Franciscan monastery in Mostar on 19 March 1889. The monastery was built on the location of the former parish house, where the cathedral church - the present-day Church of Saint Peter and Paul - was also located. Buconjić agreed to make the church a monastery church, while the new cathedral church was ought to be built with help from the imperial government. He informed the Sacred Congregation for the Propagation of the Faith about this on 14 May 1885. Buconjić bought the land for the new cathedral in the Rondo quarter of Mostar (where the present-day Croatian Lodge "Herceg Stjepan Kosača" is located). The property where the new cathedral was ought to be built was later put under a lien in benefit of the Franciscan Custody of Herzegovina due to debt, at the time when Buconjić was bedridden.

Buconjić brought the Franciscan nuns in Mostar in 1899 and granted the Sisters of Mercy a house and a yard in Ljubuški. Buconjić built the Episcopal Residence in Glavica, Mostar from 1905 to 1909, and moved in it on 24 March 1909. During his 30-year episcopate, five diocesan priests in the Diocese of Mostar-Duvno were ordained, compared to the 74 Franciscans who were priestly ordained.

The main issue during the Buconjić's episcopate diocese was the division of parishes between the diocesan clergy and the Franciscans, who tried to confirm their dominance in Herzegovina with Rome. Even though the papal bull Ex hac augusta ended all the privileges the Franciscans enjoyed in their missionary work, they still wanted to retain all of the parishes in the diocese. The Franciscans were confident that since Buconjić himself was a Franciscan, that he would not disturb their possession of parishes. Nevertheless, Custos Marijan Zovko wrote to the General of the Order in December 1881 about the parishes in Herzegovina. The General asked him about the right of possession of those parishes, to which Zovko replied on in February 1882, that the Franciscans established those parishes and controlled them, therefore they have the patronage over them. Zovko again asked the General about the situation with the parishes in Herzegovina in December 1882, and the General responded that Herzegovinian Franciscans have nothing to be afraid off since Buconjić loves the Franciscan Custody. Buconjić confirmed to the General that he would not take the parishes from the Franciscans, but would retain the newly established parishes for the diocese.

The new Custos Luka Begić, who was elected in May 1883, became concerned that the position of the Franciscans would be endangered, even if only the newly established parishes would be controlled by the diocese, and insisted that even those parishes should belong to the Franciscan Custody. He talked to Buconjić about the issue, and Buconjić complied with his concerns, and agreed that even the newly established parishes should belong to the Custody. Begić informed the General about the agreement in July 1883, and since he received no reply, he wrote again in March 1885 when Buconjić was supposed to visit Rome, and settle the issue. The General's deputy Andrea Lupori replied in May 1885, asking that Buconjić brings with him the contract about the parishes signed by him and the definitors of the Custody.

The Custody decided that Begić should follow Buconjić in Rome, with the instruction that the parishes west from the river Neretva should be retained by the Franciscans, while those on the eastern bank should be disposed of by the bishop, but in the case this would not be accepted, Begić was instructed to give in "as least as possible". Buconjić and Begić arrived in Rome on 12 May 1885. Begić's request was received by the Propaganda in June 1885, and they informed the State Secretariate about the issue. Secretary of State Cardinal Luigi Jacobini asked Nuncio Cardinal Serafino Vannutelli in Vienna to ask Buconjić about the parishes that were supposed to be retained by the Franciscans and those that were at his disposal. Vannutelli asked Buconjić in December 1885 whether he agrees with the Begić's proposal or to write which parishes should be retained by the Franciscans, and which should be at his disposal. In January 1886, Buconjić wrote back to Vannutelli, informing him that he would not take the parishes from the Franciscans.

Upon receiving Buconjić's answer, Vannutelli informed Jacobini that the agreement between the Franciscans and Buconjić shouldn't be confirmed and that the parishes should be divided as in Bosnia, where the situation was the same as in Herzegovina. He proposed that the one-third of the parishes at least should be under the disposal of the bishop. However, since Buconjić was a Franciscan himself, Vannutelli considered that it would be impossible to bring a new solution and that the Herzegovinian Custos should be informed that the Rome does not want to make any new decrees since there is a harmony between the bishop and the monks. Jacobini accepted Vannutelli's position. Thus, Rome kept the issue unresolved. Friar Lujo Radoš fruitlessly urged the Congregation for Extraordinary Ecclesiastical Affairs in March 1888.

Lupori advised Friar Nikola Šimović to explain the Franciscans' position on the matter to the Nuncio in Vienna and to try to get a confirmation for their proposal. At the end of October 1889 he visited the Nuncio who told him that he will try to resolve the matter in the interest of the Franciscans. After returning to Mostar, Šimović again wrote to the Nuncio reminding him of Radoš's proposal from 1888. The Nuncio replied in December 1889, promising he will support such a proposal. However, the issue still remained unresolved for years.

In 1892, the Franciscan Custody of Herzegovina was elevated to a province. After Begić was elected Provincial in 1898, he tried to broker any deal he could, rather than to hold the insecure status quo. Buconjić was supposed to visit Rome after Easter in 1899, which Begić was as an opportunity to finally resolve the issue of parishes. Custos Rafael Radoš was supposed to join Buconjić in Rome, however, he died in March 1899, so Begić wrote to the General of the Order in April to represent the Franciscan Province in Herzegovina. Buconjić discussed the issue with Begić, and both wanted to preserve the strong Franciscan presence in the Diocese of Mostar-Duvno. Finally, Buconjić proposed that 25 parishes should belong to the Franciscans, while twelve parishes would be at the bishop's disposal. Also, Buconjić proposed the establishment of additional twelve parishes that would be at the bishop's disposal.

Finally, on 17 July 1899 Pope Leo XIII confirmed the Decisia, by which 14 parishes were designated to the diocesan clergy, while others were left to the Franciscans. Buconjić postponed the Pope's decision as far as he could. He published the Decisia only in 1908. The Franciscans and Buconjić were unsatisfied with such a decision. At the beginning of this publication it was written: "We considered it adequate to present before the eyes of the priests of our dioceses, and especially to the young ones, the copies of the solemn Decisia in relation to the parishes established or those ought to be established. This Decisia must remain solid and constant to avoid any dissent or changeability of wishes". He asked the Pope for permission to trust certain dioceses to the Franciscans, as he lacked the diocesan priests. With time, however, the Deceisa remained neither solid nor constant, and "the dissent and changeability of wishes" were not avoided. The will of bishop Buconjić about the division of the parishes wasn't respected.

Medjugorje
Since 1981, there have been claims of Marian apparitions in the town of Medjugorje in the diocese. The diocese has not determined the apparitions to be either valid or invalid, but since 2019 Pope Francis has approved the town as a site of pilgrimages.

Western Power Corporation

Western Power Corporation (WPC), owned by the Government of Western Australia, was Western Australia's major electricity supplier from 1995 until 2006.

It was formed in 1995 when the monopoly electricity and gas supplier, the State Energy Commission of Western Australia, was disaggregated into separate suppliers for gas (AlintaGas) and electricity (WPC).

In 2006, WPC was disaggregated into Western Power, Synergy, Horizon Power and Verve Energy.

Pledging My Love

"Pledging My Love" is a blues ballad. It was written by Ferdinand Washington and Don Robey and published in 1954.

Background
The song's theme is captured in the title and the opening lines:

 * Forever my darling, my love will be true,
 * Always and forever, I'll love only you,

Johnny Ace recording
The most popular recording of the song was done by Johnny Ace. It was released by Duke Records as catalog number 136 in December 1954, soon after Ace's death by an accidental self-inflicted gunshot wound. Ace's version peaked on the Billboard chart at number 17 and spent 10 weeks at number 1 on the R&B chart. The recording was produced by Johnny Otis, who also played the vibraphone on the track and featured the Johnny Otis band, who were credited as Johnny Board's Orchestra on the record label.

In December 1958, it was reissued with additional background vocals, using the same label number. This issue was backed by his "Anymore", modified similarly.

Other versions

 * It was covered by Teresa Brewer (Coral Records, catalog number 61362) and The Four Lads (Columbia Records, catalog number 40436). Brewer's version also charted at number 17 on the pop chart in 1955. On Cash Box magazine's Best-Selling Record charts, where all versions are combined, the song peaked at number 11.

 * In 2012, Ash included a version on their Little Infinity EP.

In popular culture

 * Ace's "Pledging My Love" was used twice in the 1983 film Christine directed by John Carpenter and based on the novel by Stephen King about a 17-year-old high schooler who falls in love with his first car, a sentient 1958 Plymouth Fury.
 * It is briefly heard in Back to the Future (1985) when Lorraine Baines is in the car with her future son Marty McFly.
 * The song is also played during two movies starring Harvey Keitel, Bad Lieutenant (1992) and Mean Streets (1973).
 * Paul Simon wrote a song called "The Late Great Johnny Ace" and released it on his Hearts and Bones album. In the early 2000s, Simon sang "Pledging my Love" live in concert, telling the audience that this record was the first one he ever bought.
 * In Chapter 18 of Stephenie Meyer's Midnight Sun, Edward and Bella listen to the song on a "semi-audible" radio station while driving in Bella's truck.

Antiochus Hierax

Antiochus (Ἀντίoχoς; killed c. 226 BC), called Hierax (, Ἱέραξ, "Hawk") for his grasping and ambitious character, was the younger son of Antiochus II and Laodice I and separatist leader in the Hellenistic Seleucid kingdom, who ruled as king of Syria during his brother's reign.

King of Asia Minor
Youngest son of Antiochus II and Laodice I, he was thirteen when his father died in 246 BC. That death led to the Third Syrian War. A year later, probably under the influence of his mother, Antiochus demands the possession of Asia Minor from his brother Seleucus II Callinicus and quickly declares his independence in order to expand his territory and his authority. Seleucus, struggling against the ptolemaic forces, has no choice but to accept.

War of the Brothers
In 241 BC, Seleucus made peace with Ptolemy III Euergetes and then tried to recover the territories his brother took from him. Ready for the war, Hierax sought the help of two strong allies : Mithridates II of Pontus and Ariarathes III of Cappadocia and thus constitutes a vast coalition of Anatolian states : Cappadocia, Bithynia and a certain number of Galatians. After a first loss in Lydia, he decimated his brother's army in the Battle of Ancyra in ca. 239 BC and then ruled over Asia Minor - where he developed a coinage while his brother had to go in Iran to stop a rebellion in Parthia

Against Attalus I
In c. 238, Antiochus and his Galatians allies attacked Pergamon but had to face its powerful ruler Attalus I. Attalus defeated the Gauls and Antiochus at the Battle of Aphrodisium and again at a second battle in the east. Subsequent battles were fought and won against Antiochus alone: in Hellespontine Phrygia, where Antiochus was perhaps seeking refuge with his father-in law, Ziaelas of Bithynia; near Sardis in the spring of 228 BC; and, in the final battle of the campaign, further south in Caria on the banks of the Harpasus, a tributary of the Maeander. All his possessions taken away, Antiochus still tried to replace his brother in Syria and Mesopotamia, taking advantage of the fact that his brother was in Iran. He ultimately failed and got killed in Thrace in 226 BC.

Marriage relations
Antiokhos Hierax had two wives: - daughter of the ruler of Kappadokia (see Ariarathes III of Cappadocia) whose country he was allied with at least in 230 BCE. - daughter of king of Bithynia whose country he was also allied with. Both these were daughters of royal families with whom Hierax allied with, for alliance against his elder brother Seleukos II.

His sister Laodike was married with his ally, king Mithridates II of Pontus. See also Laodice.

American Eagle crash
Would the crash of a small commuter aircraft (the American Eagle plane) thirteen or fourteen years ago still be notable? Perhaps this is no longer an important item of knowledge about Roselawn? Would all agree to its graceful removal? Xenophon777 (talk) 17:34, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I'm assuming no one objects... Xenophon777 (talk) 23:24, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
 * It would still be notable, considering 68 people died in the accident. I even found a tribute video on YouTube. What if I could put a 'See Also' section on this article and add the link to the American Eagle crash article? And003 (talk) 07:20, 30 July 2008 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure that it's terribly relevant to Roselawn. It has no real lasting effect on Roselawn today, and is almost more like something which would go in a [discouraged] "Trivia Section." That the crash would be "trivia" is not meant to trivialize the tragedy, pain, and loss of the passengers, their families, American stockholders... (genuinely)... but it really doesn't have much to say or add about Roselawn. I'd think it a whole lot more relevant in an article on commuter airline crashes in the US, or on lists of such crashes. On the other hand, if you have non-original-research citations to articles on a lasting effect on the town, then that might by all means be different, IMHO. Xenophon777 (talk) 23:03, 30 July 2008 (UTC)

User:The awful truth

What I say might cause uncomfort to some, however, the truth will prevail.

Bio: I'm former student of Curtin University WA, which happened to be unfairly kicked out of the said university. Therefore, I made my solemn oath to spread this unfair treatment so that the world can see what's actually going on in the college. This is the reason why I put the remark on Curtin University article. After all, I pay AU$6000 per semester and at that amount of money, I, as a customer have the right to be treated better.

Some might call this a personal vendetta. Be that as it may AU$6000 might be small amout for the university, however it was quite a large amount of money for me. That alone ground me the right to retaliate with whatever means neccesary.

Władysław Gnyś

Władysław Gnyś (24 August 1910 – 28 February 2000) was a Polish pilot of the Polish Air Force, a World War II flying ace and the first Polish victor in aerial combat in World War II. He briefly served as the commander of No. 317 Polish Fighter Squadron; he was shot down on his first mission over France on August 27, 1944.

In 1931, Gnyś entered military service with the Polish Air Force. In 1933 he began air training in Grudziądz and later in 1936, was a flying instructor at the Polish Air Force Academy at Dęblin. During the war he scored six victories - three solo and three shared - in the Polish and French campaigns.

The defense of Poland, September 1939
By May 1939 Gnyś had been posted to the 121st Eskadra Mysliwska (121st Fighter Escadrille) in the city of Kraków, equipped with obsolete PZL P.11c fighters. On 31 August the Squadron was assigned to operate with the III/2 Dywizjon (Group) and it relocated to a reserve airfield in Balice.

In the early morning of 1 September 1939, Gnyś was woken by a German bombing raid on Kraków. At about 7 am (according to other sources, 5:30 am) Gnyś flew a sortie with Cpt Mieczyslaw Medwecki, the Group Commander. Just after take off and at about 300 meters altitude the Polish fighters were suddenly attacked by a pair of German Ju 87B dive-bombers from I/StG 2 "Immelmann". Unteroffizier Frank Neubert successfully fired at Medwecki and scored probably the first aerial victory of the war. The P-11 fell away having suffered serious damage, and Medwecki was killed. Gnyś was now also under attack, but later shot at a "Stuka" piloted by Lt. Brandenburg. The German aircraft started to smoke, but managed to return to base at Nieder-Ellguth. A few minutes later Gnyś attacked two Do 17E bombers from KG 77. After a few passes both Do 17 bombers crashed in the country village of Żurada, near Olkusz. One of the German bombers was coded "3Z+FR" on its fuselage and all six crew members were killed, one later identified as a Uffz. Klose. On his return to base Gnyś met a lone He 111, but he was out of ammunition.

There is controversy regarding these victories. According to Marius Emmerling, based on German wartime sources two Do 17Es from 7./KG 77 did crash near Żurada, but this was caused by a Polish anti-aircraft artillery, which damaged one Do 17 which then collided with the other. The Polish Aviation Museum in Kraków has the only surviving PZL P.11c fighter from the September campaign. Among other armaments, it has four 7.92 mm machine guns. An examination of a fragment from one of the downed Dorniers revealed at least four clearly defined bullet holes having the same diameter to the ammunition on board Gnyś's PZL P.11c fighter. Taking into account the bullets' angle of entry and the resulting damage, their diameters match up within one mm of the 7.92. This would conclude that the two Do 17s were not brought down by anti-aircraft fire because shrapnel from an exploding shell does not leave neat holes, but rather jagged and irregular size punctures.

The combat in which Medwecki was shot down took place in 5:30-6:00 am and, according to Emmerling, Gnyś only fired at the Ju 87, but did not hit it, nor did he meet Do 17s. Other authors however, claim that damage to one of the Do 17s which resulted in a collision with the other, might have been caused by Gnyś. One such author, Polish aviation historian Jerzy B. Cynk, concluded that W. Gnyś was responsible for the first Allied aerial victories of the war. [see 'The Polish Air Force at War - The Official History 1939-1943' pp. 73, 75]

Gnyś scored another victory in September 1939, claiming a He 111.

France 1940
After the fall of Poland, Gnyś fled to France and served as a pilot with the French Air Force. Flying the Morane MS 406-C with GC III./1 and stationed at Toul Croix, Gnyś scored three shared victories; a He 111 on 12 May and two Do 17s on 16 May. After the French surrender, Gnyś escaped via Oran and Casablanca and arrived in Liverpool on 14 July 1940.

With the RAF 1940-44
Gnyś later fought with the Royal Air Force, joining No. 302 Squadron as a Pilot Officer on 17 August 1940 and seeing combat in the Battle of Britain and into 1941. On 21 May 1941 Gnyś' Hawker Hurricane was badly damaged by fighters although he managed to return to base.

Later he served with the No. 316 Polish Fighter Squadron flying Spitfires and No. 309 Polish Fighter-Reconnaissance Squadron, flying tactical reconnaissance Mustangs.

On 22 August 1944, he was appointed to the command of No. 317 Polish Fighter Squadron. Two days later, Gnyś was shot down over Rouen by flak, was wounded and captured by German forces. Despite his wounds, he escaped from a POW field hospital a few days later, found by the French Maquis and returned to the Allied lines safely.

He settled in Canada after the war.

I was wondering why you changed the reference I used away from a Wikiref, since I have a Wikicite above in the main article which is now broken. I'm wondering what style you are employing, and why you prefer it to Wikiref in this article. Thanks. -Nik-renshaw (talk) 21:45, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

chromoendoscopy
I see chromoendoscopy links to the endoscopy page even though the word chromoendoscopy is not used in the body of the article. Based on yesterday's (03-05-2008) JAMA article, I was curious to know how the investigators were diluting ( or using full strength?) the indigo carmine mentioned in the JAMA abstract. When my paper copy of JAMA arrives I shall answer my own question. Generally in the duodenum Indigo Carmine is used full strength while in the distal esophagus methylene blue will be diluted 1 part MB to 9 parts Normal Saline. I don't ahve a written reference, though searching the medical literature wrt W. Weinstien @ UCLA should be fertile field for inquiry.

FWIW the "Narrow Band Imaging" mentioned in Liebermans's commentary (JAMA yesterday) has been available for a while with Olympus' current "180 series" flexible GI video endoscopes.

Heading needed for gastroscopy?
Much of the section "After the endoscopy" (and some of the section "Risks") is specific for gastroscopy. The article just jumps into this from the previous general discussion. There is no comparable section for other types of endoscopy, all of which probably have their own Wiki page. This is not my field so I'll leave it to others to expand these parts -- or better yet to shorten and make more general, leaving the procedure-specific verbiage to their pages. Casey (talk) 14:42, 19 July 2011 (UTC)

The problem with the article is that it vacillates between the general topic of endoscopy and the specific use instance of endoscopy of the upper gastrointestinal tract. The problem is that in the practice of medicine the word "endoscopy" is usually used as an abbreviation of the term "esophagogastroduodenoscopy". However, the term colonoscopy is used correctly in medical practice. Thus, when someone in practice says the patient is sent for endoscopy it is understood to mean looking into the stomach, even though other endoscopic procedures, such as laparoscopy, laryngoscopy are also types of endoscopy. I'm making an edit to the article to explain that, and expect much editing to follow. Kd4ttc (talk) 20:23, 25 October 2015 (UTC)

After the Endoscopy
The medication/sedation that is given during the procedure is optional in some cases. If a patient is not given any they are not required to have an escort upon discharge. This section should really be cleaned up anyway since there is no entry about what happens during the procedure itself. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 142.52.81.18 (talk) 17:31, 5 October 2011 (UTC)

Ross, Skye and Inverness West (UK Parliament constituency)

Ross, Skye and Inverness West was a constituency of the House of Commons of the Parliament of the United Kingdom from 1997 to 2005. The constituency elected one Member of Parliament (MP) by the first-past-the-post system of election.

The constituency was formed by merging most of the former Ross, Cromarty and Skye constituency (that constituency minus an Easter Ross area) with part of the former Inverness, Nairn and Lochaber constituency.

When abolished in 2005 much of the area of the constituency became part of the then new Ross, Skye and Lochaber constituency. Most of the rest went to Inverness, Nairn, Badenoch and Strathspey while a tiny portion joined Caithness, Sutherland and Easter Ross.

There was also a Ross, Skye and Inverness West constituency of the Scottish Parliament, which was created in 1999 with the same boundaries as the former House of Commons constituency.

Boundaries
Skye and Lochalsh District, the Inverness District electoral divisions of Aird North, Aird South, Ballifeary-Columba, Caledonian Canal, Merkinch, and Scorguie, and the Ross and Cromarty District electoral divisions of Alness and Ardross, Black Isle East, Black Isle West, Dingwall, Ferindonald, Lochbroom, Ord and Conon, Strathconon, and Wester Ross.

Council area

 * See also Politics of the Highland council area

The constituency area was entirely within the Highland unitary council area. In terms of Highland Council committee areas it covered Ross and Cromarty minus an Easter Ross area, all of Skye and Lochalsh, and part of Inverness.

Members of Parliament
Charles Kennedy of the Liberal Democrats was elected in 1997 and re-elected in 2001. Most of Kennedy's tenure as leader of his party coincided with his time as MP for this seat. When the constituency was abolished in 2005, Kennedy was elected MP for Ross, Skye and Lochaber.

Untitled
There's a good picture of Lindenthal at. I've (just now) emailed the Historical Society which was exhibiting the picture. Please don't upload it until they respond with information about its source and creation date. Lindenthal died in 1935, so the picture could still be under copyright. On the other hand, the Hell Gate Bridge, which the site is all about, was completed in 1916. So it could go either way; we'll have to wait and see. grendel|khan 14:17, August 22, 2005 (UTC)

Graeme MacDonald

Graeme Patrick David MacDonald (30 July 1930 – 30 September 1997), sometimes credited as Graeme McDonald or Graham McDonald, was a British television producer and executive.

Early life
MacDonald was educated at St Paul's School, London and Jesus College, Cambridge, where he initially studied geology and physics, but changed to an arts degree. While at Cambridge he was vice-president of the Footlights and president of the University Players, but left without a degree.

Career
MacDonald began his career in 1960 as a trainee director at Granada Television. In 1966 he joined the BBC, becoming a producer in the drama department, working particularly on anthology play series such as The Wednesday Play (for which he produced some of Dennis Potter's early work), Thirty-Minute Theatre, and Theatre 625. In the 1970s he became the producer of the single play strand Play for Today, the successor to The Wednesday Play, during which he worked on many acclaimed pieces, such as Jack Rosenthal's Bar Mitzvah Boy (1976).

By this time one of the senior producers working in the BBC's drama department, in 1977 he was promoted to become the Head of Serials. This department was merged with the Series department in 1979, and MacDonald became head of the new larger Series & Serials department which ensued. In 1981, he was promoted again to succeed Shaun Sutton as the overall Head of Drama at BBC Television.

MacDonald became the Controller of BBC2 in 1983, the first ever BBC channel controller to come from a background in the drama department. He was controller of the channel until 1987 (combining it with his Head of Drama role until he left this post in 1985), during which the Zircon affair erupted surrounding an edition of the Secret Society documentary series due to be shown on the channel.

MacDonald left the BBC in 1987 and became chief executive of Anglia Films (1988–94), where he produced the television film Goldeneye (1989) about Ian Fleming, and later Ardent Productions (1994–97).

MegaLink

MegaLink (also spelled Megalink) is a Philippine-based developer of mobile and banking software as well as a service provider for banks, specifically for Automatic Teller Machine (ATM) networks and point of sale systems for banks. From its establishment in 1989 until 2015, it has pioneered in the interconnectivity of several banks in the country by being the first Interbank Network with different banks as its members.

At the planned re-purposing and decommissioning, it had a total of more than 2,921 Automated Teller Machines nationwide and handled more than 795,000 transactions a day. MegaLink was the largest interbank network in the Philippines with 13.1 million cardholders.

MegaLink is also known for its belief in universal sharing with the motto of "The Card for All."

By late January 2015, MegaLink and BancNet had announced their merger. BancNet is the sole surviving entity, while MegaLink has been re-purposed. MegaLink now lists itself as a BancNet member, under the independent ATM deployer category.

Following the repurposing, MegaLink and its assets were sold to the Japanese conglomerate Hitachi, of which MegaLink is now a subsidiary.

Oh My Darling Daughter

Oh My Darling Daughter is a humorous coming-of-age novel by Eric Malpass first published in 1970. Set in the fictitious Derbyshire village of Shepherd's Delight during Harold Wilson's first term as Prime Minister (1964–1970), Oh My Darling Daughter is about the Kembles, a well-to-do, conservative and church-going family of five, and in particular about Viola, the eponymous daughter of the house who, at 17, suddenly finds herself in a position of having to care for the rest of the family when her mother Clementine walks out on them after a row with her husband.

Plot summary
This unforeseen event occurs at the beginning of summer, when Viola has just finished school. St. Winifred's, her "Alma mater", is an expensive public school which prides itself on turning out "ladies"—refined young women who are mostly "unemployable" and have certainly not been taught domestic subjects but who will nevertheless, it is believed, have no problem finding suitable husbands among their own social class. Secretly, Viola has already made her choice in this respect: She intends "to marry the Reverend Mr Chisholm and have ten children". Now she is waiting for Chisholm to respond to her subtle, ladylike advances.

However, at the same time she is in charge of the household, tending to her father Harry, who writes articles on literature; her twelve-year-old sister Persephone ("Perse"), who also goes to St. Winifred's; and her five-year-old brother Nicholas Anthony ("Trubshaw"). Their large house, The Old Vicarage, has not been renovated in a long time, which has started to show in places and does not make life easier for them. (They have named the spare bedrooms after the problems that have befallen them: Dry rot, Woodworm, the Mildew Room.) While they are slowly adjusting to their new life without Mother, Clementine Kemble occasionally informs them about her current whereabouts—they get cheery postcards from such faraway places as Marrakesh, Cairo, Istanbul, Samarkand, Kuala Lumpur, Eureka, California, Los Angeles, and Acapulco.

When Harry Kemble thinks they cannot cope alone any longer he hires Gloria Perkins, a friend of his wife's, to keep house for them. However, Gloria turns out to be not only dim-witted but also spectacularly incompetent as a housekeeper—the only dish she can prepare is goulash—while at the same time she is a young unattached and very attractive woman. Gossip among the villagers that she might be Harry Kemble's "mistress" seems inevitable, especially when people find out about her loose morals. ("Gloria wouldn't recognize a moral principle if it was served up to her on a plate, with chestnut stuffing".)

Even the Reverend Chisholm seems to be attracted to Gloria and succeeds in involving her in various church activities. Just as Viola starts becoming slightly suspicious of the two Chisholm, to her great and pleasant surprise, proposes to her, adding that the responsible thing to do will be to wait for a year or two for them to get married. Nevertheless, in seventh heaven now, Viola discards any ideas of continuing her association with Johnnie Wrighton, a friendly young man who has obviously fallen in love with her but whom she considers definitely beneath her as he is the son of ordinary farmers.

On Christmas Eve, six months after having bolted from Shepherd's Delight, Clementine Kemble makes a surprise appearance at The Old Vicarage. Looking out of the window, the Kembles see a beautiful woman clad in mink alighting from a London taxi, her baggage in tow. Only gradually does Harry Kemble accept it when his wife informs him that she has made up her mind to stay for good now. Immediately she takes over the regime again, having been used all her life to getting her way in all decisions big and small, whether they concern her own person or another family member. She gets rid of Gloria Perkins by inviting her husband's literary agent for the weekend and having her run off with him back to London without even doing so much as saying good-bye; she subtly prepares for the family's move from Derbyshire to the island of Sark, where she has just inherited a beautiful house but where no one except herself wants to go and live; and she vehemently forbids Viola to marry Chisholm.

When Perse gets into trouble by sending poison pen letters to a number of villagers Clementine Kemble once more takes the initiative. To protect her girl from being found out she deliberately spreads the rumour that it was her husband who, allegedly in a temporary state of overwork and confusion, has written and dispatched them. Harry Kemble is furious when she tells him, but at the same time can do nothing about it except thinking about relocating to another part of the country—maybe Sark.

The tragic aspect of Perse's bizarre adolescent prank is the ensuing suicide attempt of Agnes Buttle, a middle-aged spinster accused by Viola, herself the recipient of an anonymous letter ("Leave him alone or I'll kill you"), of writing the letters. However, as it soon turns out, Agnes Buttle has had other reasons for being desperate, first and foremost the Reverend Chisholm's abominable behaviour. To further his career in the Church, he made advances to Buttle, whose uncle was a bishop, although she is more than ten years his senior. When that uncle died, he dropped her. Chisholm has also fallen in love with Gloria Perkins and only proposed to Viola to avert attention from his association with Gloria. Viola considers it an important step in her journey from "green girl" to full-fledged adult when she breaks off her engagement and calls Chisholm a "poor little bastard".

At the beginning of April, shortly before Viola's 18th birthday, the Kembles finally move to Sark. By now Viola has realised that she loves Johnnie Wrighton, but her mother already has other plans for her. Viola is to get a job in Berkshire as a receptionist for a distant uncle of hers who is a GP there. That way, Clementine Kemble assures her, she will meet many eligible young men to choose from. Only by means of a "ruse"—she tells her little sister that she got pregnant from a day tripper to the island—can she eventually convince her mother, who for an awful moment loses her poise and fears that it actually might be true, that they are now on the same footing. At the end of the novel Johnnie Wrighton proposes to Viola, and Clementine Kemble not only gives her consent but also surprises them by giving them The Old Vicarage as a wedding present.

Quotes
"How do your parents feel about this?" "They don't know, yet. But they won't mind." He said earnestly, "I wouldn't be too sure of that. You're awfully young, you know." "I'm seventeen. Juliet was only thirteen." "My dear child, look what happened to her."
 * Viola discussing her planned marriage to Chisholm with the Vicar:

"I moved closer, and pressed my lips tenderly against his; at last we began to stroll back to the car, our arms round each other's waists, my head on his shoulder, his lips in my hair. The moon went with us, jigging over the treetops, leering a bit now, I thought. I wished I knew what was supposed to happen when we got back to the car. St Winifred's had been as reticent about this as about Economics."
 * Viola kissing Johnnie Wrighton for the first time:

"Now, Viola dear, no more arguments. You'll thank me for this when you've got three beautiful children and a husband you adore. Won't she, Harry?" "Always provided she doesn't have them in that order," chuckled Father. There are times, I must admit, when I actively dislike Father. He'll sell his own daughter down the river, just so that he can make a silly, and rather coarse, joke.
 * Viola discussing her future job in Berkshire with her parents:

Film, TV or theatrical adaptations
Oh My Darling Daughter was filmed in West Germany in 1974 as Als Mutter streikte (When Mother Went on Strike). The film was directed by Eberhard Schröder and starred Peter Hall (as "Dr. Harry Kemper"), Johanna Matz (Clementine), Belinda Mayne (Viola), Gila von Weitershausen (Gloria), and Elisabeth Flickenschildt (Aunt Clarissa).

Read on

 * Josephine Humphreys's novel Rich in Love (1987), set among the well-to-do inhabitants of Charleston, South Carolina and surroundings, shows quite a number of striking parallels to Oh My Darling Daughter. It is also about a mother who leaves her family because she believes she cannot cope any more. Like in Malpass's novel, the first person narrator is a 17-year-old girl who realises that it is now up to her to replace her mother and manage the affairs of the whole family.
