Broodstock

Broodstock, or broodfish, are a group of mature individuals used in aquaculture for breeding purposes. Broodstock can be a population of animals maintained in captivity as a source of replacement for, or enhancement of, seed and fry numbers. These are generally kept in ponds or tanks in which environmental conditions such as photoperiod, temperature and pH are controlled. Such populations often undergo conditioning to ensure maximum fry output. Broodstock can also be sourced from wild populations where they are harvested and held in maturation tanks before their seed is collected for grow-out to market size or the juveniles returned to the sea to supplement natural populations. This method, however, is subject to environmental conditions and can be unreliable seasonally, or annually. Broodstock management can improve seed quality and number through enhanced gonadal development and fecundity.

Management
Broodstock management involves manipulating environmental factors surrounding the broodstock to ensure maximum survival, enhance gonadal development and increase fecundity. Such conditioning is necessary to ensure the sustainability of aquaculture production, and to increase the number and quality of eggs produced and control the timing of maturation and spawning. Management of the technologies for gamete production in captivity is one of the essential step for aquaculture that would ensure the growth to this sector. Unfortunately, most fish when reared in captivity condition, exhibit some degree of reproduction dysfunction. Many species of captive fish are able to reach reproduction maturity in aquaculture conditions and gonadal growth occurs normally. However, some of female species often fail final oocyte maturation stage. Hormonal manipulation and acceleration of final oocyte maturation due to the economics of broodstock management is important. For instance, in Salmoniformes, the need to collect the eggs by stripping is a serious limitation, while the time of ovulation must be predicted with accuracy, as over-ripening may take place in minutes or hours after ovulation Therefore, control of broodstock reproductive is essential for the sustainability of commercial aquaculture production

Choosing species to use requires consideration of the biology of the species. This includes their size at maturity, method of reproduction, feeding behaviour and ability to tolerate adverse conditions Farms also consider whether they grow their own broodstock or obtain them from natural populations. Where natural populations are excluded, the farm can be considered a self-sustaining unit independent of external genetic influence.

Pond-reared broodstocks are selected, often as immature juveniles, and grown out in suitable conditions to sexual maturity. These animals require stable water characteristics and a well-balanced, species-dependent, protein rich diet. This enhances the germinal tissue for future seed stock as it is formed in juveniles.

The pond or tank in which broodfish are held must be a suitable size to hold and condition the broodstock. Dependent on the species involved you need to alter the number of individuals, and often separate the sexes. Sex separation enables the broodstock males and females to be subjected to different conditions where necessary. For example, male and female sturgeons respond to different hormone levels, this also allows more control over eggs and sperm.

The characteristics of the water in which the mature broodstocks are held must be manipulated. The aquaculturist must consider the appropriate oxygen concentration, temperature, and pH of the water all of which can be species specific.

The feeding regime of broodstocks is species specific and requires consideration of timing and composition of the food. Protein, lipid and fatty acid composition is particularly important. The quantity of food intake can be altered to influence spawning and maturity, for example low rations have been shown to reduce the number of fish reaching maturity while increasing the fecundity of those which do.

When fry are desired, spawning can be induced in broodstocks by manipulation of relevant environmental factors. In particular the photoperiod can be altered to imply that it is time to spawn. A shortened photoperiod is known to advance spawning times while a lengthened photoperiod can delay spawning. Artificial light can be used to change the apparent day length and indicate different seasonal features so as to delay spawning. Water temperature can be increased for the same purpose. Following spawning the female broodfish are often stressed and have lost weight. They require extra care and abundant feeding at this time to ensure survival to the next spawning season.

Advantages
Managers can select for reproductive characteristics which influence the egg producing capability of individuals and increase fecundity by providing them with optimal environment and diets. This is further possible in pond-reared populations where traits can be selected for over generations for example, for higher fecundity.

The breeding season and spawning times can be shifted thus expanding the seasonal range of production. This leads to more efficient aquaculture because fry are available to the market year round. Hormonal treatments can advance spawning by two to three weeks. Manipulating photoperiod can alter spawning time by over four months and is cheap and straightforward to achieve.

Broodstock managers can use or select for traits such as fast growth rates or disease resistance over generations to produce more desirable fish. This ability for genetic improvement of stocks is more efficient and produces higher value stock. Broodstocks also enable you to selectively plan and control all matings. Selective breeding is an important part of the domestication of aquaculture species.

Pond-reared broodstocks benefit from the removal of predation which can be a significant cause of mortality in natural populations. They further benefit from the removal of variable environmental impacts.

Holding broodstock in an accessible pond or tank offers readily available breeding adults whenever required.

Disadvantages
When broodstocks are used to supplement natural populations they face different selective pressures to normal. Thus they may not have adequate fitness to survive the natural environment, or can alter and decrease natural genetic diversity due to the bottleneck nature of breeding from a smaller population.

Broodstocks require supplementation from outside sources regularly to prevent negative effects of closed populations. Domestication of broodstocks in hatcheries can reduce reproductive capabilities and alter other genetic characteristics. For example, a trout stock maintained as a closed population for 20 generations showed reduced number and size of egg production.

Penaeidae
Shrimp, particularly of the family Penaeidae, are one of the largest internationally traded species. Native stocks are usually collected as sources of broodstock supply. There are also examples of pond-reared Penaeidae broodstocks. These shrimp are raised in suitable environmental conditions including a 12–14 hour/day photoperiod, a water temperature of 25–29 °C and full seawater salinity with high water exchange rates.

Sydney rock oyster
The Sydney rock oyster, Saccostrea glomerata, has been farmed in New South Wales, Australia for over 100 years. Due to declines in the supply in the past 30 years, New South Wales introduced a selection program in 1990 to breed faster growing stocks. The utilised broodstocks are held in artificial ponds of around 0.11 ha in size, and at low densities. Broodstocks provided higher numbers of larvae and could be spawned readily providing a more definite source of Sydney rock oysters.

Rainbow trout
Global production of rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss, requires over 3 billion eggs per year. This number is met because of broodstocks which undergo selection and conditioning in hatcheries. Trout have been reared artificially for over 80 years. Rainbow trout broodstocks are commonly manipulated to delay maturation and spawning time in order to provide eggs regularly and optimise supply. Artificial selection has favoured larger fish due to evidence of correlations between fish size and fecundity.

Neto (footballer, born 1966)

José Ferreira Neto (born 9 September 1966), commonly known as Craque Neto or simply Neto, is a Brazilian former professional footballer and current sports broadcaster. After retiring from the game he has been active in the media. He's been working for Bandeirantes since 1999, and currently presents Os Donos da Bola.

An attacking midfielder, he played 470 games and scored 184 goals in his entire career.

Biography
Neto was born in Santo Antônio de Posse, a small town near Campinas, in the State of São Paulo.

Club career
Neto began his football career very early in life, playing for Campinas-based team Guarani at youth level, before being promoted to the senior side. In the mid-1980s he also played for Bangu (in Rio de Janeiro) and São Paulo, before returning to Guarani once again. In 1988, he brought more attention upon himself by scoring a goal from a bicycle-kick in the São Paulo State Championship finals against Corinthians.

In 1989 Neto played for Palmeiras and was subsequently transferred to Corinthians, where he remained for a good part of his career, wearing club's the number 10 shirt, and becoming an idol with the club's fans in the beginning of the nineties. With his precise passing game and strong personality, he was the key player during the 1990 National Championship in Brazil, when Corinthians won the finals against São Paulo.

After almost five years and 114 goals for Corinthians, his time with the club came to a close. However, even today Neto is remembered as one of the most iconic players in the club's history. After his spell with Corinthians, he played for many other clubs, in Brazil (Araçatuba, Atlético Mineiro, Matsubara, Santos) and abroad (Millonarios of Colombia). He is one of the few players to have played for all four major teams in the state of São Paulo.

Neto's career was always plagued by weight problems and disagreements with referees and club managers, due to his strong character. His most famous episode was when he spat in referee José Aparecido de Oliveira's face, earning himself a 4-month suspension from the games. Neto says this is the only regrettable thing he did in his career.

Neto retired from professional football at the end of the nineties.

International career
Neto was a member of the Brazilian under-23 team that won a bronze medal at the 1983 Pan American Games. Following his performances in the São Paulo State Championship throughout the season, in 1988, Neto was named to the Brazil national team that went to Seoul to play in the Summer Olympic Games. In the final against the Soviet Union, Neto helped set up Romário's opening goal of the match from a corner-kick, however, the Soviets came from behind to defeat Brazil 2–1 in extra-time to capture the gold medal. Neto was later also included in the Brazilian squad that finished second in the 1991 Copa América in Chile; under manager Falcão, he was named the team's captain, and wore the number 10 shirt throughout the tournament. He scored his only goal of the competition from a penalty in a 2–1 win over Bolivia on 9 July, in the first round group stage. In total, he made 26 appearances for Brazil at international level between 1988 and 1993, scoring 7 goals; 9 of his appearances came with the Olympic youth side, and 16 with the senior team, including one appearance and one goal in an unofficial friendly.

Style of play
A set-piece specialist, in Brazil Neto is commonly considered to be one of the greatest free kick takers ever, and one of the best Brazilian players of the early 1990s. A versatile midfielder, he was capable of playing in several offensive midfield positions, but was usually deployed as an attacking midfielder behind the forwards, due to his technique, range of passing, and excellent playmaking skills; he was also occasionally used as a second striker or as a winger. In addition to being known for his accuracy from dead ball situations, he was also noted for his precise long passing, and his ability to act as a leader for his teammates on the field.

After football
After the conclusion of his footballing career, Neto briefly served as the manager of Guarani.

He later became a commentator and sports pundit for TV Bandeirantes. Neto's simple way of speaking, and his blunt, "ogre-like" behavior have made him a famous broadcaster in Brazil. Working alongside names such as José Luiz Datena and Milton Neves, Neto has, however, clashed against fellow sports journalists such as Tiago Leifert and various footballers.

Personal life
The son of a former military policeman, Neto is a father of two children. After his retirement from professional football, Neto underwent a gastric bypass surgery to help with his excess weight. The surgery was a success, and the footballer, who was once plagued by weight problems, has since ran in marathons.

Issam Makhoul

Issam Makhoul (عصام مخول, עיסאם מח'ול; born 18 July 1952) is an Israeli Arab politician who served as a member of the Knesset for Hadash between 1999 and 2006. As the Secretary General of Maki, and together with the Central Committee of the party, he directs all communist activities in Israel as well as being responsible for relationships with communist parties in other countries. In late 2003, he was the target of a failed assassination attempt, when a car bomb exploded beneath his vehicle as his wife was backing it out of their driveway.

Biography
Born in Israel, Makhoul studied philosophy and sociology at the University of Haifa, gaining a BA. During his time at university he also became chairman of the National Union of Arab Students. After graduating he worked as a sociologist, and was a member of the Emile Touma Institute for Political and Historical Research. He is married to Suad.

Knesset activities
Makhoul was elected to the Knesset in 1999 on Hadash's list, and re-elected in 2003. He was an active critic of Israel's nuclear weapons program, and in 2000 was the first Knesset member to attempt a break in Israel's "nuclear ambiguity" policy by prompting an open debate on Israel's atomic program. He is also a supporter of Mordechai Vanunu, the former Israeli nuclear technician who was imprisoned for revealing details of Israel's nuclear weapons program to the British press in 1986, and had called for Vanunu's release on several occasions.

Assassination attempt
On 24 October 2003, Makhoul and his wife were preparing to leave their home in central Haifa; Makhoul took his Knesset-supplied Ford, and his wife took their personal Honda, Makhoul's primary transportation prior to Knesset service. Makhoul reversed the Ford out of the driveway, and his wife started the engine of the Honda, intending to pick up their twin children from school. The Honda's ignition sparked an explosion, flooding the vehicle in flames. Suad Makhoul escaped the blast unhurt. In May 2005, two young Jewish men (Alexander Rabinovitch and Eliran Golan) were convicted of obtaining explosive materials for criminal purposes. The two were conspiring to murder prominent Arab figures in Haifa, including Makhoul.

Current activities
Makhoul lost his seat in the 2006 elections. Since then he has been involved in improving ties between Maki and the Chinese Communist Party.

Married with two children, he lives in Haifa. His brother Ameer Makhoul was a director of the Haifa-based Ittijah, the Union of Arab Community-Based Associations.

Edward John Carnell

Edward John Carnell (28 June 1919 – 25 April 1967 ) was a prominent Christian theologian and apologist, was an ordained Baptist pastor, and served as President of Fuller Theological Seminary in Pasadena, California. He was the author of nine major books, several of which attempted to develop a fresh outlook in Christian apologetics. He also wrote essays that were published in several other books, and was a contributor of articles to periodicals such as The Christian Century and Christianity Today.

Family
Carnell was born in Antigo, Wisconsin, on June 28, 1919, and was the third of four children born to Herbert Carnell and Fannie Carstens. He was married to Shirley Rowe, a school teacher from Wisconsin.

Education
Carnell began his tertiary education at Wheaton College, Illinois, where he majored in philosophy and received his B.A. degree. His philosophical mentor at Wheaton was the Calvinist apologist Gordon Clark. Carnell then commenced theological studies at Westminster Theological Seminary where he was awarded the Th.B and Th.M degrees. John Murray and Cornelius Van Til were two of his lecturers who influenced him greatly. He then proceeded to doctoral studies in history and the philosophy of religion at Harvard Divinity School. During his candidacy at Harvard, Carnell also enrolled as a doctoral candidate in philosophy at Boston University under the tutelage of Edgar S. Brightman. Carnell's theological dissertation at Harvard was on Reinhold Niebuhr, while his philosophical dissertation at Boston was on Søren Kierkegaard.

Apologetic writings
During the period of his doctoral studies, Carnell composed a work in Christian apologetics that he submitted to William Eerdmans in a competition for the Evangelical Book Award. Carnell's manuscript won the five thousand dollar prize, which in 1948 was a considerable sum of money. It was hailed in Evangelical circles as a masterly new work in apologetics, and established a reputation for Carnell as a brilliant young and rising theologian.

The book, which was released as An Introduction to Christian Apologetics, reflected the apologetic influences of his mentors Gordon Clark and Cornelius Van Til, and also the philosophical influence of Edgar Sheffield Brightman. In the book he sought to show that Christian faith was systematically logical, factual and rationally satisfying as it best fitted the facts as an explanation for the human condition. His apologetic gambits dealt with topics such as Biblical criticism, the problem of miracles, evolution, and the existential problem of soul-sorrow in an effort to show that Christianity offers a coherent view of reality.

In many respects his apologetic approach represented an attempt at combining the deductive rationalist and presuppositionalist methods of Clark and Van Til, with a test for truth he called "systematic consistency". Later analysts of Evangelical apologetics have dubbed his apologetic method as either a "combinationalist" or "verificational" approach. Irving Hexham has noted in his survey of apologetic responses to New Age spirituality that Carnell's approach had some influence on the way in which Francis Schaeffer developed his apologetic writings. Hexham states, "Another source for Schaeffer's ideas was the evangelical philosopher E. J. Carnell, although Schaeffer was reluctant to admit this unless directly asked."

Carnell's second apologetic text, A Philosophy of the Christian Religion, explored questions of value that are personally and existentially satisfying. This study is technically known as axiology.

Two further apologetic works Christian Commitment and The Kingdom of Love and the Pride of Life delved into subjective issues of introspective meaning. Both texts reflected his deep study and appreciation of the work of Søren Kierkegaard. Carnell emphasised the meaning of authentic discipleship and commitment to the way of Christ as grounded in God's love.

After graduating from Harvard, Carnell joined the faculty of the recently founded Fuller Seminary. Carnell was attracted to this seminary as it was part of an emerging movement of reform within Protestant Fundamentalism. The background to this new movement of reform lies in the nineteenth century and the early twentieth century.

Fundamentalist-Liberal controversies
In the nineteenth century Evangelicalism had been the major expression of Protestant theology and church life in North America. Towards the end of that century a major division occurred in Protestant thought in Europe, England, and America that transcended denominational affiliations. The division comprised two broad camps: Liberal Christianity and Evangelical Christianity. The tensions between these two camps arose over developments in Enlightenment based philosophy where theistic or supernatural explanations of reality were brought into question.

The questioning of theism was not confined to abstract concerns in philosophy, but also developed as modern historical consciousness dawned. This new historical consciousness was presaged in the seventeenth century controversies of Deism where Biblical miracles, and especially Christ's resurrection, were called into doubt. Alongside the debates about miracles came new conjectures about the authorship of the Biblical books, and investigations into possible sub-documents and written sources undergirding the present biblical texts.

A further element of controversy for Christians at that time arose in the wake of the theory of evolution as propounded in 1859 by Charles Darwin. The Genesis narratives of the creation and Noah's Flood were brought into doubt, and the science versus religion debates accelerated.

Those in the Liberal camp sought to reconcile their faith and theology in light of the modern historical consciousness and evolutionary thought. Some within the Liberal camp began to redefine the message of Christ in light of socialist criticism, and the Social Gospel developed in the popular writings of Charles Sheldon (the inventor of the "What Would Jesus Do" slogan) and in the theological writings of Walter Rauschenbusch.

Those in the Evangelical camp began to argue that the Liberals were engaged in a massive compromise, if not betrayal, of the central tenets of Christianity. Many of the nineteenth century Evangelicals had prized higher learning, cultural engagement, and pursued matters of social justice and reform (like anti-vivisection, anti-slavery, prison reform). However, as the gospel message of the Liberals was perceived to be largely about social reform and not about personal repentance from sin, the suspicions between the two camps widened.

In 1915 a multi-volume work called The Fundamentals was published, which comprised a variety of tracts that reasserted traditional Christian teachings and challenged modern skeptical thinking and Liberal Christian ideas. It is from these volumes that the subsequent label of fundamentalist was coined in the 1920s and in the wake of the famous Scopes trial on the teaching of evolution.

Neo-Evangelicals
In the early 1940s a number of those who had grown up in a fundamentalist ethos began to question the eccentricities of the subculture, and particularly its disengagement from both the academy and mainstream culture. A new organization known as the National Association of Evangelicals was formed with the agenda of reforming society. Some of the emerging leaders of this movement, which came to be dubbed "Neo-Evangelical" included Carl F. H. Henry, Harold Ockenga and Billy Graham. These men were convinced that a two-pronged approach to societal transformation was possible. One approach was to reengage the academy bringing a distinctly Christian worldview to bear on disciplines such as history, philosophy, science, literature, art and law. The other approach involved itinerant evangelistic preachers proclaiming the message at the grass roots level of society.

As the Neo-Evangelical leaders pushed towards these goals, a division occurred between them and their more conservative and sometimes militant colleagues who continued to pursue the cause of fundamentalism.

Neo-Evangelical leader
Carnell had grown up as a fundamentalist and been trained at Wheaton College, which was one of the bastions of fundamentalism. He was, however, dissatisfied with the anti-intellectual tendencies he discerned in fundamentalist culture. He was therefore very receptive to the message of Neo-Evangelicals who sought to reform both fundamentalism and the wider society.

As part of his contribution to challenging the culture of fundamentalism, Carnell confronted the issue initially by dealing with the advent of television. Some fundamentalists feared that television was a device in the hands of the devil. In his book Television: Servant or Master? Carnell dealt with some of the issues concerning modern communication systems, the use of technology in the promotion of the Christian message, and engaging with wider cultural concerns. Carnell scorned the anti-intellectual tendencies in fundamentalism, and attacked its legalistic and negative mentality about culture.

In 1954 Carnell was appointed the President of Fuller Seminary. As some of the Neo-Evangelicals, like Carl F. H. Henry and Harold Ockenga, had been instrumental in establishing the seminary, Carnell's rising profile as an apologist, theologian, and now seminary professor, catapulted him into the spotlight.

In his book The Case for Orthodox Theology Carnell sought to separate the Neo-Evangelicals from the fundamentalists by arguing that a Reformed Orthodox theology was considerably different from fundamentalism. He attacked the legalism and hypocrisy he saw in fundamentalism and argued that it was "orthodoxy gone cultic". He highlighted what he saw as critical deficiencies in fundamentalist thought and practice. As a result of his published diatribe Carnell became the object of much criticism from fundamentalist preachers.

Carnell's personal life was not without difficulties as he suffered from depression and insomnia, and received psychiatric treatment including electro-convulsive therapy. His treatment included doses of barbiturates, and he died in 1967 from a drug overdose. The cause of his death has been the subject of much conjecture as the coronial finding was unable to determine whether the dose was accidental or not.

Carnell's legacy, however, is generally regarded as a positive contribution to the re-emergence of Evangelicals in scholarly pursuits. His apologetic contributions influenced the post-World War Two generation of evangelicals, and emphasized the importance of the gospel and culture. He was greatly admired by his students at Fuller Seminary.

Death
Carnell died on April 14, 1967, at the Claremont Hotel in Oakland, California. The Alameda County Coroner determined that he had a significant amount of barbiturates in his system, but there was no determination whether or not the death was an accident or suicide. Carnell was survived by his wife and two children.

Attack of the Grey Lantern

Attack of the Grey Lantern is the debut album by English alternative rock band Mansun released on 17 February 1997 via Parlophone. The album spent a total of 19 weeks on the UK Albums Chart, peaking at number one.

Background
According to Mansun's Kleptomania liner notes, frontman Paul Draper states that "Take It Easy, Chicken" was their first song and the band really did not know how to play their instruments, let alone play as a band, when DJs Steve Lamacq and John Peel started to play the song on BBC Radio 1. Through 1996 and 1997, Mansun released "Egg Shaped Fred" (which was re-recorded for the album to include new drummer Andie Rathbone), "Stripper Vicar", "She Makes My Nose Bleed" and "Taxloss" (styled Taxlo$$). "Wide Open Space" became a dance anthem after being remixed by DJ and producer Paul Oakenfold under the production alias Perfecto. This remix was included on Oakenfold's compilation Resident: Two Years of Oakenfold at Cream, as an indicator of being one of the most played songs at major UK nightclub Cream, as well as in nightclubs around the world, over the 1997–1999 period.

"Taxloss" alludes melodically and lyrically to the Beatles' song "Taxman", and also to the rhythmic feel of "Tomorrow Never Knows", as well as "Long Haired Lover from Liverpool" by Little Jimmy Osmond. The video notoriously featured the band throwing £25,000 in five-pound notes onto the main concourse of London's Liverpool Street station during rush hour and watching the ensuing chaos.

While Mansun's singer and songwriter, Paul Draper, admits that Attack of the Grey Lantern is not a fully fledged concept album, it was his intention for it to be one, until he "ran out of steam", labelling the LP "half a concept album – a con album". AllMusic referred to the album as a song cycle. The majority of the record is centred on the concept of a superhero, known as "The Grey Lantern", in the guise of Draper himself. Throughout the album, the hero encounters a number of immoral inhabitants in a fictional English village.

"Well, The Grey Lantern is like a comic-book hero – the album is about this village of people with really disgusting morals and the Grey Lantern sorts them out. I suppose the Grey Lantern's me. I wouldn't have a cape, but there are definitely characters on the record – Albert Taxloss, Chad, Dark Mavis. At the end of the album it all gets resolved and you find Mavis is actually the Stripper Vicar."

At the time of release, Draper hinted at a possible album sequel, titled "The Return of the Grey Lantern". For its American release, the album's running order was re-sequenced, a move which some felt compromised the intended concept, as the song "Stripper Vicar" was replaced with "Take It Easy, Chicken."

Release
When Attack of the Grey Lantern was released in February 1997, it charted at No. 1 on the UK Albums Chart. The album was preceded by four singles, the first of which "Egg Shaped Fred" was released a year prior. "Egg Shaped Fred" was Mansun's début single for Parlophone Records and made No. 37 in the UK. The following three singles ("Stripper Vicar", "Wide Open Space", "She Makes My Nose Bleed") all made the top forty each improving of the previous singles' chart position. The final single released from the album was "Taxloss" which followed the album in April 1997 and made No. 15. In the US, Mansun enjoyed their only chart success with "Wide Open Space" reaching the modest position of No. 25 on the Billboard Modern Rock Tracks chart.

Critical reception
In The Observer, Neil Spencer wrote that while "Mansun's guitar-driven sound veers rather too erratically between Nineties Britpop and Sixties psychedelia, the chime and idiosyncrasy of the songs hold steady, and with a scope that runs from Liverpudlian lovers to transvestite vicars, it's quintessentially English pop."

Dear all: there is a bit of a conflict here. According to the Edmonton Journal Page, the Edmonton Journal was established by local businessmen in 1904 and was then purchased by Southam. According to this page, the Edmonton Journal was purchased by Southam in 1897 before Southam existed. How do we deal with this conflict? Which is correct?

Talk:Tri-Cities, Washington

August 2005
I recently wrote up this article from a glorified stub into what it is now. It's generally culled from my experiences living in the Tri-Cities for 17 years, as well some Google searches, quick online research and a class in Washington History from my freshman year of high school. Any additions, fact-checking/correcting, clarification, etc. would be greatly beneficial to this article. Of course, the biggest need is ADDING PICTURES, which is definitely not my specialty. Any takers? --Matt Yeager 07:56, August 23, 2005 (UTC)

 * Stupid me. Matt Yeager 23:00, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

About broadcast TV stations
I don't want to sound crude, but it isn't really smart to include a Seattle broadcast station in the Tri-Cities media section. KCTS is a SEATTLE station, not TRI-CITIES! The Tri-Cities only gets KCTS through Charter Cable and not over-the-air.

If you want to list the over-the-air stations, it should be:

 * KCWK - 9 - CW Network
 * KFFX - 11 - Fox
 * KEPR - 19 - CBS
 * KNDU - 25 - NBC
 * KTNW - 31 - PBS
 * KVEW - 42 - ABC

I don't really now what the Spanish and religious stations are. If there's someone who does know, please put it up. Elwin Blaine Coldiron 16:00, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

Appeareances in popular culture/books
Did you know that there is a whole series of fantasy books set in the Tri-Cities? It is the "Mercy Thompson series" by Patricia Briggs, published by Ace Books. Until now it is composed of three titles, "Moon Called", "Blood Bound" and "Iron Kissed", and others are planned. "Iron Kissed" is a #1 New York Times bestseller. The main character lives in Finley. I lack the knowledge to add a section in the Tri-cities article, so I add this remark so maybe others can do it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.103.117.254 (talk) 14:08, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

About broadcast TV stations
I deleted KCTS off of there. You guys on the east may get it through cable, but its broadcast from the Seattle area. Totally different markets. I didn't add the other channel 9, because its a Walla Walla station. Æric 04 Feb 2007 —Preceding comment was added at 03:39, 5 February 2008 (UTC)

Population
The statement that the Tri-cities would be the second-largest city in WA (were they combined) is not accurate. This is based on comparing the metro population of the three cities (or four, if you want to count West Richland) with the city popluations of Seattle, Spokane and Tacoma. It's not an apples-to-apples comparison.

If you compare Metro Areas to Metro areas, you see that Seattle (3.3M), Tacoma (3.2M) and Spokane (463K) all come before Tri-Cities. In addition, Yakima's Metro population (261K) is also ahead of the Tri-Cities. Now whether you want to argue Seattle and Tacoma is one metro area or two, that decides whether the Tri-Cities is the 4th or 5th largest in the state.

Comparing actual city populations, the 'combined' Tri-Cities would also be firmly in fourth place: Seattle 602K Spokane 463K Tacoma 197K Tri-Cities 164K Yakima 84K

I am undoing the changer and returning the statement to that of fourth-largest. Nothingofwater (talk) 19:09, 2 September 2009 (UTC)

Portland is in Wasington State?

Lamine Diatta

Lamine Diatta (born 2 July 1975) is a Senegalese former professional footballer who played as a defender. He works as team coordinator of Senegal, appointed by head coach Aliou Cissé in 2015.

Club career
Born in Dakar, Senegal, Diatta moved to France when he was only one year old.

Before moving to Olympique Lyon in 2004, Diatta played 142 games for Stade Rennais, scoring nine goals in that time. Before his time at Rennes, he was at Marseille, but never actually played a game for them. Diatta's first club was Toulouse FC. He spent one season there and played 25 games without scoring. In his first year (2004–05) with Lyon he played 19 games. During his second year (2005–06) at Lyon, he was troubled with injury and only makes 13 appearances also without goals. In August 2006, he left Lyon on free transfer in search for regular team football, settling at AS Saint-Étienne.

On 7 March 2008, after a week's trial at Newcastle United, Diatta agreed to a short-term deal until the end of the season after buying out his contract at Beşiktaş J.K. The deal was finally confirmed by the club on 14 March after a week of confusion. He made his first team debut for Newcastle as a substitute in a Premier League match against Reading on 5 April but was released on 15 May.

Diatta joined Stoke City on trial in January 2009. On 20 March, however, he signed for Hamilton Academical on a short-term deal until the end of the season.

After just one month, on 25 April, the 33-year-old Senegalese defender left Hamilton to join Al-Ahli Sports Club in Qatar.

Without a club since his release from Al-Ahli Sports Club he participated in trials in Singapore without being snapped up by a club.

He then joined Étoile Sportive du Sahel of the CLP-1 in Tunisia.

In December 2011 he signed a short-term deal with Championship team Doncaster Rovers, where fellow countrymen El Hadji Diouf and Habib Beye also played for the club.

International career
Being the Senegal's captain, he has played 71 games for his national side, scoring four goals. He also played in all of Senegal's matches in the 2002 FIFA World Cup.

Style of play
Diatta was the holding force in the centre of Senegal's defence, and is also tough in the air, which provides a threat in attacking set-pieces.

Honours
Lyon
 * Ligue 1: 2004–05, 2005–06
 * Trophée des Champions: 2005

Senegal
 * Africa Cup of Nations runner-up: 2002

Burghwallis

Burghwallis is a small village and civil parish in rural South Yorkshire, England. The population of the civil parish as of the 2011 census was 300. The village is situated amongst mixed farmland and woodland on a slight rise roughly six miles north north west of Doncaster, or one mile off the A1.

The village church is dedicated to St Helen. The village pub is the Burghwallis.

History
In contrast with most of the villages surrounding Doncaster, very little in the way of residential development took place in Burghwallis during the 19th and 20th centuries. Today the village is one of a handful in the area to have retained much of its original character and has a very peaceful small-scale rural feel.

No church is mentioned in Burghwallis' entry in the Domesday Book; however, the Grade II Listed St Helen's chapel is likely to have been either standing or under construction at the time. Several architectural features suggest it is of a pre-Conquest design, and it is held to have been built between 950 and 1100 AD. Parish records as far back as 1596 exist and are available from the Doncaster archives. Priest-in-charge Revd Chris Herbert

The parish was the home of Catholic martyr John Anne, who lived in the Hall during the 16th century.

Etymology
Burgh in general tends to mean town/township in Old Norse and Old German. The parish is referred to simply as "Burg" in the Domesday book, becoming Burghwallis in the early 13th century when Dionysia – one of seven surviving daughters of the local lord – was married into the Wallis family. The Wallis family line persisted among the local landowners through to the early 17th century by which time the name of the settlement was so far removed from that of the local aristocracy that the succeeding Anne family appear not to have thought to change it. The name literally means "village of the Wallis family".

The music box ghost
Burghwallis Hall, also known as St Anne's Convent, is reputed to have a ghost. On 14 March 1934 a mother smothered her son while he slept, then concealed the body in a closet. Her husband discovered the body, then murdered his wife and took his own life. A music box is reputed to have been heard through the corridors along with the voice of a small boy. The ghost of the man in grey and a small woman are also claimed to be seen walking the corridors.

Hum Saath-Saath Hain

 Hum Saath-Saath Hain, also abbreviated as HSSH, is a 1999 Indian Hindi-language family drama film written and directed by Sooraj Barjatya under the production and distribution of Rajshri Productions. The film stars an ensemble cast with Salman Khan, Saif Ali Khan, Karisma Kapoor, Tabu, Sonali Bendre, Mohnish Bahl alongside Neelam, Mahesh Thakur, Reema Lagoo and Alok Nath. The story centers on a joint family and its values and togetherness, who grow apart after a misunderstanding.

Hum Saath-Saath Hain: We Stand United is the third film to feature Salman Khan with Rajshri Productions. Principal photography took place in Mumbai and various locations in Rajasthan. The film's cinematography was done by Rajan Kinagi. Raamlaxman composed its music and lyrics are written by Dev Kohli.

Hum Saath Saath Hain was released on 5 November 1999, and eventually became the highest grossing film of the year and one of biggest blockbusters of the decade, with a worldwide gross of inr 817000000. It received predominantly positive reviews from critics. It was also the first Bollywood film to be played in Canadian theatres, with six screenings in Toronto. The film was also dubbed in Telugu and released with the title Premanuragam.

At the 45th Filmfare Awards, Behl received a Best Supporting Actor nomination. At the 3rd Zee Cine Awards, the film earned 12 nominations including Best Actor for Salman Khan, and won two awards. Also, at the 1st IIFA Awards, the film won the Best Makeup for Jayanti Shevale.

Plot
In the past Ramkishan Chaturvedi, a rich businessman loses his first wife Lakshmi. They have a one-year old son, Vivek. Ramkishan remarries the kind Mamta, and Vivek also accepts and respects her as his mother. Later the two have three kids: Prem, Sangeeta, and Vinod. Seven years later, while trying to save Prem and Vinod from a probable accident, Vivek is injured which leaves his right hand partially paralyzed.

Nineteen years later, Prem returns from US after completing his studies. Sangeeta lives with her husband Anand and their daughter Radhika. Vinod is busy with studies. Vivek is still undergoing treatment for his hand. On Ramkishan and Mamta's anniversary function, the four siblings wish them with respect.

Seeing Vivek's love for them, Ramkishan's business associate Adarsh's daughter Sadhna likes him at first sight. Adarsh sends a marriage proposal to Ramkishan's family. Vivek agrees and marries Sadhna. Vinod is secretly in love with Sapna who is the daughter of Ramkishan's former neighbour in his ancestral village, Dharamraj Bajpai.

Ramkishan's friend Pritam's daughter Preeti is in love with Prem. Everyone agrees to their engagement. Eventually, Prem and Preeti find out about Vinod and Sapna who get engaged too. Ramkishan makes Vivek the managing director of his company.

A bitter turn comes when Anand's brother Anurag cheats him for inheritance and share in the family business. This incident triggers insecurity in Mamta's mind. Meanwhile, her three friends and Dharamraj fill her head with thoughts as to why Vivek shouldn't be in charge of the family inheritance. This makes Mamta very paranoid.

She questions Ramkishan's decision and wants the division of the business equally between all their children. He disagrees as it will divide the family. Heartbroken, after finding out about it, Vivek asks Ramkishan to put Prem in charge of the family business and moves back to their ancestral village Rampur with a pregnant Sadhna. Vinod accompanies them.

Prem refuses to replace Vivek as head of the family business. Vivek convinces him to go along with the plan in the interest of preventing further conflict within the family. Prem tells Mamta that he won't marry and can't replace Vivek like she wants. Eventually, Anurag realizes his mistake and unites with Anand.

Sangeeta asks Mamta to bring back Vivek. Mamta realizes her mistakes and visits Rampur with Ramkishan. In the hospital, Sadhna delivers a baby boy. Later, Prem and Vinod marry Preeti and Sapna, respectively. Dharamraj apologises realizing ill-manner cannot end the love in the family.

Development
Hum Saath-Saath Hain: We Stand United's concept was conceived by Sooraj Barjatya, who wanted to make a family drama. The film is produced under his banner Rajshri Productions, the 48th film under the banner and Barjatya's third film as a director. The film was a modern day adaptation of the epic Ramayana. Lyricist Raghvendra Singh worked as an assistant director for the film.

Casting
Reema Lagoo (as Mamta), Alok Nath (as Ramkishan), Himani Shivpuri (as Neenakshi), Satish Shah (as Pritam) and Ajit Vachani (as Pranab) were cast. It marks their second film with Barjatya after Hum Aapke Hain Koun..!. For Salman, Lagoo, Nath, Bahl, and Vachani, it was their third film with Barjatya after Maine Pyar Kiya.

Salman Khan was cast as Prem, marking his eighth film with the same character name. Salman at that point, found the character to be "similar to him" in real life. For Preeti's role, Barjatya first approached Raveena Tandon, who refused the part due to it being a multi-starrer. Later, Sonali Bendre was cast as Dr. Preeti. It marked Bendre's only film opposite Salman Khan. Bendre said that she knew exactly what she was "supposed to do" for her character, after the narration.

Vivek's role was first offered to Anil Kapoor and later to Rishi Kapoor but after their refusal, Mohnish Bahl was cast as Vivek. Bahl made it a habit to keep his right hand in his pocket, as per the role's requirement. Bahl called Vivek’s character "an opportunity of a lifetime". Barjatya approached Madhuri Dixit for Sadhna's role, who declined. Manisha Koirala was offered the role, who refused due to filming of her film Mann. Finally Tabu was cast as Sadhna.

Later, Karisma Kapoor (as Sapna), Saif Ali Khan (as Vinod) and Neelam (as Sangita) were cast. Kapoor called working with Barjatya a "dream come true" experience. The makers offered Rishi Kapoor, Anand's role, but he again refused, it was then offered to Nitish Bhardwaj, who refused too. Finally Mahesh Thakur was cast as Anand.

Zoya Afroz was cast as Sangita and Anand's daughter Radhika. Also, Shakti Kapoor (as Anwar), Sadashiv Amrapurkar (as Dharamraj), Rajiv Verma (as Adarsh), Sheela Sharma (as Jyoti) and Dilip Dhawan (as Anurag), were cast in other prominent roles.

Filming

The principal photography commenced in 1998. A major portion of the film was shot at the Film City, Mumbai. The filming of other scenes of the film including the song "Mhare Hiwade Mein Naache Mor" was done in Jodhpur, Rajasthan. Mandore Gardens, Mehrangarh Fort, and Jaswant Thada, were some of the locations in Jodhpur where the film was shot. The rain sequence of "Mhare Hiwade", was also shot at Chennakeshava Temple, Somanathapura.

Post-production
During the post-production stage of the film, the filmmaker announced a unique campaign for its promotions. The team of Hum Saath-Saath Hain and Coca-Cola launched a nationwide marketing programme called 'Coca-Cola Hum Saath Saath Hain'. The common ad campaign laid equal focus on both the soft drink brand and the film. The Barjatyas were quite press-friendly during the making of their previous films, but for Hum Saath-Saath Hain, the press screening was restricted to an elite few.

Controversy
During the Jodhpur film schedule in 1998, some members of the cast, Salman Khan, Saif Ali Khan, Neelam Kothari, Tabu, and Sonali Bendre, were involved in a case of shooting of an endangered black buck on a hunting expedition, on the outskirts of Kankani village in Jodhpur district of Rajasthan. The incident generated significant press coverage and Salman Khan spent a week in Jodhpur jail in 2007, before the court granted him bail. In 2018, the Jodhpur court convicted him and acquitted the others. In 2019, Rajasthan High Court issued a notice challenging the acquittal of Sonali Bendre, Tabu and Saif.

Soundtrack
Raamlaxman composed the music, teaming up with Sooraj Barjatya for the third time. Raamlakshman had composed as many as 27 tunes, out of which the soundtrack of the film features seven songs and playback singers: Kavita Krishnamurthy (for Karishma Kapoor), Alka Yagnik (for Sonali Bendre), Anuradha Paudwal (for Tabu), Kumar Sanu (for Salman Khan), Udit Narayan (for Saif Ali Khan), Hariharan (for Mohnish Behl), Sonu Nigam (for Shakti Kapoor), Hema Sardesai (for Neelam), Roop Kumar Rathod (for Ajit Vachani) and Pratima Rao (for Himani Shivpuri).

Raamlaxman plagiarised his track "A B C D" from the Spanish singer Jeanette's 1974 song "Porque te vas". The remaining songs of the album include, the title track "Hum Saath Saath Hain", the wedding tracks "Chhote Chhote Bhaiyon Ke", and "Sunoji Dulhan", "Yeh To Sach Hai Ki Bhagwan Hai", "Mhare Hiwda" and "Maiyya Yashoda".

At the 2000 Zee Cine Awards, Raamlaxman received a nomination for Best Music Director. At the same event, he won the award for the Best Background Score.

Critical reception
Savera R Someshwar of Rediff.com said "..It is time for Barjatya to look out for a new music director. Even the lyrics – barring "Maare Hidwa Ma Naache Mor" and "Mayya Yashoda" – are banal...".

Charts and sales
The music topped the charts on several platforms in India. According to Box Office India, the soundtrack of Hum Saath-Saath Hain went on to sell 18 lakh (1.8million) units, becoming the twelfth best-selling album of the year.

Release
Hum Saath-Saath Hain was released earlier but the music director Raamlaxman took time to check the soundtrack album for the second time to not make any mistake. Following all the post-production, cinematography, choreography and other things were completed, the film finally hit the theatre screens on 5 November 1999 during Diwali. It became the first Bollywood film to be played in Canadian theatres, with six screenings in Toronto. Eros Entertainment released the film on over 60 screens in North America, the biggest opening for any film then. The film was also dubbed in Telugu and released with the title Premanuragam. Hum Saath-Saath Hain was later made available on Netflix and Zee5.

Critical reception
Anupama Chopra of India Today noted, "A time-warped patriarchal fantasy, but somehow HSSH glows with Barjatya's conviction. Despite the diabetic sweetness, it has some wonderfully crafted moments. It's maudlin and regressive but he believes in it. And at least partially, he makes you believe in it too."

Savera R Someshwar of Rediff.com stated, "Barjatya's film is pure escapism, very feel-good. While you are ensconced with the moving images, you smile, laugh, feel sad, and maybe even a little angry. Hum Saath-Saath Hain is an enjoyable experience, especially if you contain yourself from comparing it to Hum Aapke Hain Koun..!"

Alok Kumar of Planet Bollywood wrote, "Hum Saath-Saath Hain is repetitive, sickeningly sweet, and sappy. Though, the performances were pretty good from the whole cast. If you're a Barjatya fan, you should watch this, as it's almost guaranteed you will love it."

Box office
Hum Saath-Saath Hain became the highest grossing film of the year, with a worldwide gross of inr 817099999.9999999. It became one of the biggest blockbusters of the decade. It is one of the top earners of the decade in India and at the foreign box office. When adjusted for inflation, Hum Saath-Saath Hain is still among the highest grossers worldwide. Rediff.com termed Hum Saath-Saath Hain, a "Super Hit" and the "biggest hit" of 1999. The film is also among the highest grossing Diwali releases in India.

Alvanley

Alvanley is a small rural village and civil parish near Helsby, in the unitary authority of Cheshire West and Chester and the ceremonial county of Cheshire, England. The village is on the B5393 road and near junction 14 of the M56 motorway. According to the 2011 census the civil parish had a population of 472.

History
The name means 'Aelfwald's wood/clearing', derived from an Old English personal name and the word lēah (a forest, wood, glade or clearing).

The village is mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086 as Elvedelie, under the ownership of Earl Hugh of Chester and consisting of only three households (one villager and two smallholders).

The population was recorded over time as 314 in 1801, 312 in 1851, 319 in 1901, 287 in 1951 and had reached 485 by the 2001 census.

Governance
Alvanley was a township in Frodsham parish of the Eddisbury Hundred, which became a civil parish in 1866. From 1875 Alvanley was part of the Runcorn Rural Sanitary District, then Runcorn Rural District from 1894. Local government reorganisation on 1 April 1974 transferred the civil parish into the Borough of Vale Royal, which was superseded by the unitary authority of Cheshire West & Chester on 1 April 2009.

Alvanley is within the Weaver Vale parliamentary constituency.

Community
The village has a primary school, a public house (the White Lion) and a Grade II listed parish church dedicated to St John. Alvanley Hall is a Grade II* listed farmhouse to the south-east of the main village, dating mainly from the 17th century.

Sport
Alvanley Cricket Club, established in 1884, runs five senior teams and four junior teams ranging from under-9s to under-18s. The club came fifth in Division One of the Cheshire County League in 2000, but a fallow period saw them fall back down to the Meller Braggins League. In 2011 the club won the League unbeaten with a record 461 points and in doing so found their way back into the County League for 2012. The Junior Section has in recent years begun to challenge for County Cups, without yet actually lifting one. 2008 to 2011 saw a period of investment in the club's infrastructure, rewarded by the award of prestigious games such as the Bunbury Festival and Cheshire County fixtures.
