Chaplin
Hi, as you have edited Edna Purviance I thought we should tell you about this Saturday's editathon at the Cinema Museum in London. The main focus will be the Tramp as it comes up to the centenary of its release, but other Chaplin related articles may well get changed, especially as the Chaplin Association has promised to allow us to photograph some of the exhibits that they have loaned to the museum. There will be some film experts and several experienced Wikipedians at the event, and there is a talkpage for any queries, special requests for photographs or things to check in the reference sources available at the museum. And of course if you are anywhere near London you would be very welcome to come along. Regards Jonathan Cardy (WMUK) (talk) 16:35, 3 March 2015 (UTC)

Otter Creek Brewing

Otter Creek Brewing is a brewery in Middlebury, Vermont, that produces two lines of beer: Otter Creek Craft Ales, and Shed Brewery Ales. It brewed Wolaver's Organic Brewery beers from 2002 until 2015, when it ceased brewing that line.

Otter Creek
In March 1991, Otter Creek brewed its first Copper Ale at 616 Exchange Street in Middlebury and shipped its first keg of beer shortly thereafter. Four years later, the brewery expanded and moved down the road to 793 Exchange Street where they expanded production to 60,000-barrels. Otter Creek Brewing distributes its year-round and seasonal beers to fifteen states in the mid-Atlantic and Northeast regions.

Otter Creek brews and bottles all of its beers in small batches and uses natural Vermont water; domestic malts and hops; and its own top-fermenting yeast. In 2005, Otter Creek Brewing produced approximately 30,000 barrels of beer and distributed in 22 States.

Otter Creek brews three year-round beers:
 * Free Flow, a 6% American IPA
 * Berner, a 7% American IPA
 * Ella, a 5.5% India Pale Lager

This current line-up follows a major production overhaul that saw Otter Creek do away with all of their original flagship beers, including their Copper Ale, Stovepipe Porter, and Black IPA. Otter Creek also produces a number of seasonal and occasional beers, almost all of which are also of a hop-forward nature.

In 2010, Massachusetts private equity firm Fulham and Co. acquired Otter Creek Brewing through their Long Trail Brewing Company subsidiary.

Wolaver's Organic
In 1997, Wolaver's (based in Nevada City, California) became the first USDA-certified organic brewer. The Wolaver's line only contains organic beers. The company started in Santa Cruz, California but was brewing their ales in several locations including the Mendocino Brewing Company in Ukiah, California, Goose Island Brewery in Chicago, Illinois and Otter Creek in Vermont.

About two years later, Wolaver's moved to Nevada City, California and began looking to buy a brewery in 2001. Wolaver's purchased Otter Creek in 2002 to consolidate production. The brewers worked with the organic barley and farmers in the area to create a market for organic hops. All the Wolaver's styles are certified organic by Vermont Organic Farmers, and featured wheat and oats grown locally in Addison County, Vermont. Since 2002, all Wolaver's Organic were brewed in Middlebury, Vermont.

Wolaver's brewed three year-round beers and several seasonals. Their year-round beers were:
 * Brown Ale
 * IPA
 * Oatmeal Stout

Long Trail ceased brewing Wolaver's in December 2015.

Shed Brewery line
Otter Creek/Wolaver's acquired the Shed Brewery in 2011 when the former owners decided to close and continues to brew Shed Mountain Ale and Shed IPA. Shed Brewery brews include:
 * Mountain Ale
 * The Shed IPA
 * Profanity Ale
 * Nosedive Vanilla Porter

Domain model

In software engineering, a domain model is a conceptual model of the domain that incorporates both behavior and data. In ontology engineering, a domain model is a formal representation of a knowledge domain with concepts, roles, datatypes, individuals, and rules, typically grounded in a description logic.

Overview
In the field of computer science a conceptual model aims to express the meaning of terms and concepts used by domain experts to discuss the problem, and to find the correct relationships between different concepts. The conceptual model is explicitly chosen to be independent of design or implementation concerns, for example, concurrency or data storage. Conceptual modeling in computer science should not be confused with other modeling disciplines within the broader field of conceptual models such as data modelling, logical modelling and physical modelling.

The conceptual model attempts to clarify the meaning of various, usually ambiguous terms, and ensure that confusion caused by different interpretations of the terms and concepts cannot occur. Such differing interpretations could easily cause confusion amongst stakeholders, especially those responsible for designing and implementing a solution, where the conceptual model provides a key artifact of business understanding and clarity. Once the domain concepts have been modeled, the model becomes a stable basis for subsequent development of applications in the domain. The concepts of the conceptual model can be mapped into physical design or implementation constructs using either manual or automated code generation approaches. The realization of conceptual models of many domains can be combined to a coherent platform.

A conceptual model can be described using various notations, such as UML, ORM or OMT for object modelling, ITE, or IDEF1X for Entity Relationship Modelling. In UML notation, the conceptual model is often described with a class diagram in which classes represent concepts, associations represent relationships between concepts and role types of an association represent role types taken by instances of the modelled concepts in various situations. In ER notation, the conceptual model is described with an ER Diagram in which entities represent concepts, cardinality and optionality represent relationships between concepts. Regardless of the notation used, it is important not to compromise the richness and clarity of the business meaning depicted in the conceptual model by expressing it directly in a form influenced by design or implementation concerns.

This is often used for defining different processes in a particular company or institute.

A domain model is a system of abstractions that describes selected aspects of a sphere of knowledge, influence or activity (a domain ). The model can then be used to solve problems related to that domain. The domain model is a representation of meaningful real-world concepts pertinent to the domain that need to be modeled in software. The concepts include the data involved in the business and rules the business uses in relation to that data. A domain model leverages natural language of the domain.

A domain model generally uses the vocabulary of the domain, thus allowing a representation of the model to be communicated to non-technical stakeholders. It should not refer to any technical implementations such as databases or software components that are being designed.

Usage
A domain model is generally implemented as an object model within a layer that uses a lower-level layer for persistence and "publishes" an API to a higher-level layer to gain access to the data and behavior of the model.

In the Unified Modeling Language (UML), a class diagram is used to represent the domain model.

Patrick Sercu

Patrick Sercu (27 June 1944 – 19 April 2019) was a Belgian cyclist who was active on the road and track between 1961 and 1983. On track, he won the gold medal in the 1 km time trial at the 1964 Summer Olympics, as well as three world titles in the sprint in 1963, 1967 and 1969. On the road, he earned the green jersey in the 1974 Tour de France. Sercu is the record holder for the number of six-day track race victories, having won 88 events out of 223 starts between 1961 and 1983; several of these wins were with cycling great Eddy Merckx. He also won six stages at the Tour de France and eleven stages at the Giro d'Italia.

With 38 national and 15 European championship titles, he is considered as one of the most successful track cyclists ever.

In total, he won no less than 1,206 races, of which 168 road races and 1,038 track races.

Early life
At a young age, Patrick Sercu was pushed towards the track by his father Albert, himself a successful rider. "He was afraid I would break down too quickly on the road", Patrick Sercu himself said about that.

With his fast legs, Sercu was also born for explosive work on the track. In 1962, aged 18, he won his first national titles, in the sprint and madison events. At 19, Sercu became world amateur sprint champion in Rocourt, near Liège. A year later, the still very young Sercu captured gold at the kilometre in Tokyo, his only participation in the Games as only amateurs were allowed to compete in the cycling events at the time. That year, he was the star attraction at the Manchester Wheelers' Club Race Meet at the Fallowfield track in Manchester.

Professional career
After the Olympics, professional life and also increasingly the road races beckoned for Sercu. Super team Solo–Superia, which also included Eddy Merckx, Rik Van Looy and Rik Van Steenbergen, brought in the West-Fleming.

While on the road he still lacked power and speed, on the track he was increasingly successful. Between 1965 and 1969, he won two more golds and two more silver medals at the World Sprint Championships, each time after a duel with his Italian rival Giuseppe Beghetto. He was also an instant winner in the Six Days. With Eddy Merckx at his side, he won his first of 11 Six Days in Ghent in 1965. Until the early 1980s, Sercu would remain the uncrowned king of the Six Days.

With 88 final victories, Sercu leads the eternal rankings. "It's Merckx's fault there weren't more", he later said jokingly. After all, Merckx could not ride a full winter programme due to his busy schedule.

Gradually, Sercu began to find his feet on the road as well. In 1970, he rode his first major tour, the Giro, and took his first stage win. Twelve more stage wins in the Italian Tour would follow in the following years.

By the mid-1970s, Sercu had become one of the most renowned sprinters in the peloton. In his first participation in the Tour at the age of 30, he snatched 3 stages as well as the green jersey. Three years later, he would bring his total in the Tour to six stage wins. By then, he had already won the overall classification of another stage race Giro di Sardegna in 1970, and the points classification of the Critérium du Dauphiné and La Méditerranée in 1977.

Retirement
Patrick Sercu retired from competitions in 1983. He became organizer of six days events and omniums all over the world, and director of the Six Days of Ghent and the former Six Days of Hasselt. After a few years with unstable health, Sercu died on 19 April 2019, aged 74.

Riding Style
Sercu had the special quality not only to have a very fast sprint, but he could also maintain that top speed for a long time. He celebrated his greatest success there with one kilometer time trial, where he often outwitted the stockier, more explosive types in a long sprint. It earned him the world records in the shorter distances. Moreover, everything seemed to come very easily to him, often to the chagrin of his opponents. With his unequalled recuperation ability, he was able to participate in more than ten six-days in a winter season. In the years that he combined the track with the road, he competed in more than 200 races every year.

The six-day combination with Eddy Merckx was a success. Merckx was able to maintain a high, constant pace for a long time, while Sercu often finished it off with his final sprint.

Ohio Graduation Test

The Ohio Graduation Test (OGT) is the high school graduation examination given to sophomores in the U.S. state of Ohio. Students must pass all five sections (reading, writing, mathematics, science and social studies) in order to graduate. Students have multiple chances to pass these sections and can still graduate without passing each using the alternative pathway. In 2009, the Ohio legislature passed an education reform bill eliminating the OGT in favor of a new assessment system. The development and transition of replacement began in 2014 and ended in 2022.

History
Prior to the OGT, passing the ninth grade proficiency test was required for graduation beginning with the class of 1994. It had the same five subjects, apart from the social studies test was referred to as the citizenship test.

In 2001, the Ohio legislature directed the Ohio Department of Education (ODE) to develop the OGT based on the soon-to-be-adopted academic content standards. The first official OGT was given in March 2005. It replaced the ninth grade proficiency test as a graduation requirement for the class of 2007. The last administration of the ninth grade proficiency test was in 2005.

Development
Questions are developed by ODE staff, sent through committees, and placed on exams before official inclusion on the OGT. First, the Content Advisory Committee runs the ODE developed question past parents and educators to see if it addresses the content. Second, the Fairness Sensitivity Review Committee helps ensure that questions are fair and do not put any student at a disadvantage because of a student’s moral values, social status, or religious beliefs. Third, the question is field tested. It is placed on an exam, but does not count towards the score of the student. Finally, the committees evaluate the performance data and decide if the question is to be used.

Questions
The OGT is made up of five tests: reading, writing, mathematics, science, and social studies. These sections match the core school subjects and fulfill the high school testing requirement in reading, mathematics, and science under the federal No Child Left Behind Act. Each of the five sections is formatted differently, but they each contain multiple choice, short answer, and extended response questions:

Each exam has approximately six extra questions that are being field tested for future OGT tests. Students are not penalized for incorrect answers on field tested questions. Students have up to two and a half hours to complete each section of the test. Typically, the tests are split up so that there is only one per day (for five days).

Testing Dates
The OGT is first given to students in the spring of their sophomore year. If they do not pass all five sections, they can continue to retake the exam. The OGT is administered in the fall (October), spring (March), and summer (June) each year. Not all schools offer the summer OGT, but students can be directed to one that does. Summer testing also requires a student to take at least 10 hours of preparatory programs beforehand. A typical student will have seven opportunities to pass the OGT before he or she is scheduled to graduate.

Accommodations
There are special accommodations of the OGT for students with special needs. These accommodations include tests with readers, in large print, and different languages like Spanish, Chinese, and Somali. Students with an Individualized Education Program (IEP) may be exempted from the requirement to pass all sections of the OGT or may take another assessment if the plan allows. For students with significant disabilities, there is an alternate assessment that requires a collection of evidence that demonstrates knowledge appropriate for the student’s disabilities.

Alternative Pathway
Passing all five of the OGT tests is required to earn an Ohio diploma for both public and private school students (excluding IEP issues). However, there is an exception for students who come very close. The alternative pathway lets student who meet seven specific requirements to graduate without passing all five tests. High school guidance counselors determine if students qualify for this option. A student qualifies for the alternative pathway if they:

 * 1) Pass all the tests but one, and earn at least a 390 on the failed test;
 * 2) Have a 97% attendance rate, not including excused absences, for each of the last four years;
 * 3) Have not been expelled in the past four years;
 * 4) Have a GPA of 2.5 out of 4.0 in the subject area of the failed test;
 * 5) Complete the high school curriculum requirements;
 * 6) Have taken “intervention programs” to help their performance on the tests and have a 97% attendance rate, not including excused absence, in those programs; and
 * 7) Receive a letter recommending graduation from each of the student’s high school teachers in the subject area of the failed OGT and the student's high school principal.

Ohio Reforms
In 2009, the Ohio legislature passed an education reform bill that, among other things, called for the OGT to be replaced. To receive a diploma, students will have to earn a certain composite score drawn from a new three part assessment system:

 * A national standardized assessment (such as the ACT) that assesses science, mathematics, and English language arts
 * A series of end-of-course exams in English language arts, mathematics, science, and social studies
 * A senior project by a student or a group of students

The academic content standards and the model curriculum must be finished before the new assessment system can be developed to assure alignment. Work will begin on developing this new system in 2011. There is no set date for the beginning of the new assessment system, but the 2013-2014 school year has been targeted. The OGT will be phased out until 2022.

National Assessments
Also in 2009, the federal Race to the Top $4.35 billion incentive program was announced. It included up to $350 million for common assessment development. Various consortia of states formed to compete for this grant. Ohio signed memorandums of understanding with two groups: Smarter Balance and Achieve. Whatever assessment systems these groups design may supersede the modified Ohio Achievement Assessment (grades 3-8), the three part assessment system, and the composite score passed by the Ohio legislature.

Criticisms
The OGT receives many of the same criticisms as other states’ standardized tests. Chief among them is that the assessments drive instruction, give students increased testing anxiety, and test preparations distract from classroom learning. The activist, perennial candidate, and former 98 Degrees singer Justin Jeffre filed a formal letter of complaint asserting the OGT is "unfair" according to guidelines set forth in the Ohio Administrative Code.

Talk:Hard trance

Cleanup
this page needs some serious work. anyone got enough back knowledge on Hard Trance to do so, and then link it to the Trance catagory? --Threatis 23:49, 23 August 2005 (UTC)

I can contribute, I suppose. I did my term paper on electronic music, with a focus on hard trance, so I will help in any way I can. Zombie bomb 10:09, 17 February 2006 (UTC)

But, seeing as how I've never done any major project like an entire wiki entry, I would love some actual user help who knows about the topic as well! Zombie bomb 10:12, 17 February 2006 (UTC)

Perhaps this page should be split into two seperate pages, being UK Hard Trance and European Hard Trance. The two aren't alike and have different roots, so it doesn't make sense to just bundle them together under "Hard trance". Syfoon 00:29, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

The origins part doesn't sound quite right... did the genre only form after the year 2000?

I think it need to mention the evolution of the genre through the time, specially from 1998 to 2002. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.144.102.201 (talk) 12:58, 27 June 2014 (UTC)

what a crap article - what does "it lost popularity around 2007" mean? (popularity with who?) - try telling that to the thousands of hard trance producers around the world.And as for this crap about "getting into hardstyle" - who wrote this? most enjoyers of hard trance wouldn't be seen dead bothering about kiddie 'music' like hardstyle. this article needs deleting and starting again. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.155.97.180 (talk) 19:05, 5 October 2014 (UTC)

Lots Of Citation Needed
I just came back to this page after a year, and see it's at least been expanded a bit. Now, lets get some of these facts cited, and it put into a proper Wiki Template. I don't think I have enough knowledge about the subject to mess with it specifically, however. --Threatis 12:34, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

'Hardcore trance' recently deleted
The article Hardcore trance was recently deleted. I'm wondering whether or not the term should be re-created as a redirect to here, Hard trance as a synonym. I'm not familiar with this musical genre; my inquiry springs from looking at the many articles that linked to the deleted article. Thanks for considering this. --User:Ceyockey ( talk to me ) 02:58, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

This hardcore trance that you talk of...What it is really known as is either as 160bpm hard trance or Trancecore. But it is known more as 160bpm hard trance...Or, it was. Some good examples are Nostrum - Brainchild, Legend B - Lost In Love, and Cocooma - Virtual Experience —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ricdose (talk • contribs) 05:47, 28 March 2010 (UTC)

Hard Trance
Would I be correct to assume this is the genre of compilations such as "Ultimate NRG" and "Clublend X-Treme" (not to be confused with clubland xtreme hardcore). —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Smx2007 (talk • contribs) 17:57, 21 January 2007 (UTC).

Artists?
From a quick scan, it appears that this article doesn't even have any examples of artists that use this genre, so wouldn't that make this genre not even a real thing and only theoretical? Why is there an article for a genre that isn't used by any artists? ...there is you dope, but i'm not sure if there are artist who pigeonhole themselves in hard trance. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.219.4.45 (talk) 00:29, 24 September 2015 (UTC)

Origins
"The hard trance sound developed out of the breakbeat hardcore/hardcore era which itself developed from Belgian New Beat industrial style of Techno. When the hardcore breakbeat production community split into its separate subgenres, hard trance began to develop within the breakbeat hardcore production community."

Not really, there was no such thing as trance there.

First tracks now labeled as trance were made on German techno scene, especially in Frankfurt.

Real separate genre and scene developed in Berlin under Paul van Dyk and Kid Paul in E-Werk club.

Then, Frankfurt was more active. A lot of trance in both Dorian Gray and Omen.

From the beginning there were harder tracks which could be labeled as hard trance, but real scene and sub-genre developed only in second half of 90s in Frankfurt and was centered in its techno clubs.

Confusion comes because of retroactive labeling, saying there were some sub-genre before it ever existed.

This is often seen in UK, there is a lot of revisionism, like in this case when there is no real connection between UK and early hard trance scene. 93.140.27.217 (talk) 10:40, 24 August 2022 (UTC)

Disengagement

 * I made no inferences. The following if/then statement is undeniable: If Abbas demands borders at the '49 lines, then Bush will support those borders (if he follows his current policy statements). I did not assume that Abbas would make that demand (though I think it is quite likely, based on precedent, that he will. However, that is irrelevant).
 * We seem to be in agreement that Bush wants more, so I'll assume that we're in agreement that the article should indicate as much.
 * I never said that millions are satisfied with the disengagement alone. However, if you consider any such people extremists, a fortiori that you consider those who don't support any land concessions extremists. There are many millions of the latter (I dare say hundreds of millions). HKT talk 18:32, 25 August 2005 (UTC)

Jan Willem Storm van Leeuwen
Please provide a reference for your statement that Zero CO2 emissions is a straw man argument. May I remind you that Jan Willem Storm van Leeuwen is a live person. If you can't provide it in 72 hours, I will have to remove your statement.Kgrr (talk) 16:46, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

 * (response to Kgrr also posted here)

 * Hi Kgrr, I updated the SvL article to describe his contribution to the ORG paper better - actually the description in the article as I found it was wrong anyway so my earlier update (the straw man) was misguided. No-one seriously interested in the subject claims that there are no other energy inputs to nuclear power, which in todays society means that it carries a greenhouse gas emission on its lifecycle; the discussion is about how much that is (which is why attacking "zero emissions" would be a straw man argument). The SvL/S analysis is an extreme (high) outlier in that estimation. In the ORG paper itself, SvL's claim that in thirty or fifty years the greenhouse burden for nuclear will suddenly sky-rocket assumes no new uranium discoveries and ignores ISL methods, both of which are too important to overlook.

 * I should add that I don't care whether Storm van Leeuwen is alive or not (yes I know he is); I am addressing the arguments, not the man.

In 2007 you created the first decent citation footnotes for "Vermont Yankee Nuclear Power Plant".

I think guides as to which episodes of all these series have appeared on DVD would be a good addition. Since Disney isn't likely to release full season sets anytime soon, this information would be both interesting and helpful. --CmdrClow 23:32, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

'Phasing Out'
I was just reading the article and it mentions Alpha and Zordon were phased out being replaced with Dimitria and Alpha 6 (or similar words) But I would argue that they weren't really phased out - they were removed three episodes into Turbo quite abrubtly - does anyone think perhaps rewording the article would be a good idea???

Uniqueness
Please stop removing this section. The only thing needed to be sourced is the part about Bulk & Skull's show. The rest is obvious information from the episodes. Things like "the zords are automobiles and not animals" and "the villain base is underwater" is not OR. Ophois 04:09, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
 * "The most diverse cast" Is opinion first of all. Second, it's not the first to have non-animal zord. Just because you think it's unique doesn't mean it is. It may be the first for some of the stuff, but not the only. --Malevious Userpage •Talk Page• Contributions 04:13, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
 * It's the first to have non-animal zords throughout the season. The other stuff is also important. Even if it's not as unique now that the show has continued so long, it was still unique back then. Perhaps the section should be changed to "Changes in the Series", or something like that? Ophois 04:19, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Zeo had non-animal zords. The entire section would need a rewrite if you changed it to that. --Malevious Userpage •Talk Page• Contributions 04:20, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
 * The first zords in Zeo were animal-based. Ophois 04:21, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
 * The super zeo zords weren't though. Nor was Pyramidas. --Malevious Userpage •Talk Page• Contributions 04:27, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
 * I know. That's why my reply said "throughout the season". Ophois 04:33, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
 * The machine empire had no previous connection to Rita and Zedd. And Divatox obviously knew Rita as she called her and asked for advice on defeating the rangers. And the way the paragraph is worded, it's the only series to have non-animal zords and the only series where villians have no past relations to other villians, and the only one where the villian is not based in outer-space. As well the most diversified part is still opinion. --Malevious Userpage •Talk Page• Contributions 04:36, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

Okay, I've rewored some stuff. Ophois 04:44, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
 * It should say, IMO, this is the first series to not feature animal based zords, or something similar because it's not the first to use non-animal zords. --Malevious Userpage •Talk Page• Contributions 04:47, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Okay, I fixed it.

Poor Ratings and Potential Cancelation
There have been no sources saying that this season suffered poor ratings and nearly cancelled the series. Unless there is a source saying that these things are true then there is no need to say them in this article. Sb1990 (talk) 02:31, 3 June 2010 (UTC)

Scorpion Rain
The "Reception" section mentions Scorpion Rain a few times. Now i know that this was some sort of fan-created episode which apperently was referenced in Wild Force, however since it isn't mentioned on that page either, so should it be mentioned here?Most readers will probably have no idea what is meant. IchiGhost (talk) 11:07, 19 April 2010 (UTC)

Transition
Why does it say that there is no explantion for the transition? Though the movie did a lousy job, it seems to me that the reason they changed was because the bad guys in Turbo were too strong for Zeo powers thus they changed to the Turbo powers, much like they changed from Dino to Thunder Zords in Season 2 of MMPR. Emperor001 (talk) 04:59, 14 August 2010 (UTC)
 * What you say may be right, but the point is that it was never stated in the moive or series, so we can only assume the reasons. And assumptions aren't really welcome here. IchiGhost (talk) 17:26, 14 August 2010 (UTC)
 * I'd hav to rewatch the movie, but I think it actually does say that. I think they mentioned that the zords weren't strong enough for the journey, and I destinctly remember Zordon saying that the Turbo Megazord was the strongest megazord yet.  This just happens to be the first time they change powers/zords without having their previous power/zords endangered or destroyed (the Dinozords were almost destroyed hence the change to Thunderzords, the Thunderzords were demolished so they changed to Ninjazords, the Ninja Power Coins were then destroyed so the change to Zeo), so it appears that this time Zordon decided to just creat new powers rather than wait for the old ones to get in danger. Emperor001 (talk) 18:26, 15 August 2010 (UTC)
 * I just rewatched the movie and I was right. Zordon first said that not even the Zords (referring to the Zeo Zords) could not stand against the combined force of Divatox and Maligore.  He then said that the new Turbo Zords would be strong enough to take them through the Nemisis Trianagle and that the Turbomegazord woudl be "the strongest zord every created).  Emperor001 (talk) 20:28, 16 August 2010 (UTC)

CBS News Sunday Morning

CBS News Sunday Morning (frequently shortened to Sunday Morning) is an American television newsmagazine that has aired on CBS since January 28, 1979. Created by Robert Northshield and E.S. "Bud" Lamoreaux III, and original host Charles Kuralt, the 90-minute program currently airs Sundays between 9:00 a.m. to 10:30 a.m. EST, and between 6:00 a.m. to 7:30 a.m. PST. Since October 9, 2016, the program has been hosted by Jane Pauley, who also hosts news segments. Her predecessor, Charles Osgood, hosted Sunday Morning for twenty-two years (and is the program's longest-serving host) after taking over from Kuralt on April 10, 1994.

Charles Kuralt era (1979–1994)
On January 28, 1979, CBS launched Sunday Morning with Charles Kuralt as host. CBS News Sunday Morning was originally conceived to be a broadcast version of a Sunday newspaper magazine supplement, most typified by The New York Times Magazine. For the first few years of Sunday Morning's run, CBS News' weekday morning broadcasts were similarly branded as Monday Morning through Friday Morning respectively, and were produced on the same set. However, these broadcasts emphasized hard news as opposed to Sunday Morning's focus on feature stories.

Originally anchored by Bob Schieffer, Kuralt eventually took over the daily role, and was for a short time joined by Diane Sawyer as co-host. However, the weekday program's then-limited 7:00 a.m. to 8:00 a.m. EST air time (the long-running Captain Kangaroo was entrenched in the 8:00 a.m. hour) hampered its ability to compete with Today on NBC and Good Morning America on ABC, though it expanded to ninety minutes (from 7:30 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. EST) in 1981 and was renamed simply Morning.

In 1982, the weekday version was extended to two hours (7:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m.) and reverted to its previous title as the CBS Morning News, adopting a different set and distinct graphics in the process; by March, Kuralt had been replaced by Bill Kurtis. Meanwhile, Kuralt continued hosting Sunday Morning until April 3, 1994, when he retired after fifteen years and was succeeded by Charles Osgood.

Although the attempt to apply the same format to weekday broadcasts proved unsuccessful, the Sunday broadcast survived and retains its original format, including elements of its original graphic and set design. Long after the daily editions ended, Sunday Morning's opening sequence continued to display all seven days of the week until the early 2000s.

Charles Osgood era (1994–2016)
Osgood's first broadcast as host was on April 10, 1994. Ultimately, his tenure of twenty-two years as host exceeded Kuralt's fifteen. Osgood's final broadcast as host was on September 25, 2016.

Among Osgood's personal trademarks were his bow-tie, his weekly signoff ("Until then, I'll see you on the radio") and his propensity for delivering his commentaries in whimsical verse. For example, when the United States Census Bureau invented a designation for cohabitant(s) as "Person(s) of Opposite Sex Sharing Living Quarters", or "POSSLQ", Osgood turned it into a pronounceable three-syllable word and composed a prospective love poem that included these lines, which he later used as the title of one of his books:
 * "There's nothing that I wouldn't do
 * If you would be my POSSLQ."

On January 25, 2004, Sunday Morning celebrated its 25th anniversary with clips and highlights from the show's first quarter-century on the air. On February 1, 2009, the program celebrated its 30th anniversary, and segments examined how the world had changed in the three decades its debut, the history of Sundays in the U.S. and–as a tie-in to the show's logo–the physics of the sun. An artist was commissioned to create new sun logos for the program, which debuted on that edition and were used in future broadcasts. On May 17, 2009, Sunday Morning began broadcasting in high-definition. In 2014, rebroadcasts of the program began airing on sister cable network Smithsonian Channel (owned by CBS's parent company ViacomCBS) but has since been pulled from that channel's programming.

Jane Pauley era (2016–present)
In 2014, Jane Pauley, a former co-host of NBC's Today, appeared as an interview subject on Sunday Morning; positive audience response to this segment led to Pauley being hired as a contributor to the show later that year. Pauley was elevated to the role of the program's host in 2016, succeeding Osgood, once again making her the anchor of a regular morning news program for the first time in over twenty-five years and becoming her first job as the host of any television program since 2005; she continues in this role as of 2024. Pauley began her role as host on October 9, 2016, nearly forty years to the day since her debut on Today.

Format
Each edition follows a story totem pole in the center of the CBS soundstage, with previews of featured stories set to air during the broadcast (the first four of which feature clips from the story packages with preview narration by the respective correspondent) during the introduction. Each story covered in a given episode has a glass plate with its headline on this pole (digitally inserted on the pole as a prepared graphic since the late 2000s), which the camera follows after the host's introductions. Music in the show is usually limited to the opening and closing title theme. The host introduces each story with a short monologue, then sends the show out to the taped segment. The show usually ends with a preview of next week's Sunday Morning broadcast. After the commercial break, there is a thirty-second tranquil nature scene.

For most of its history, the program was typically presented live, with a short summary of national and international news headlines, sports, and a national weather forecast right after the featured story teasers, and a preview of the guests and topics to air on that week's Face the Nation (which follows the program on most CBS stations) near the end of the program. During the occasional weeks that Sunday Morning aired a pre-taped theme broadcast, the headlines segment would instead be presented live by another anchor. By early 2022, observers noted that Sunday Morning had quietly shifted to a pre-taped format; in the event of a major weekend news story, it may be presented with a generic on-set introduction combined with an off-set voiceover by the host.

Notably, Sunday Morning includes significant coverage of the fine and performing arts, including coverage of topics usually not covered in network news, such as architecture, painting, ballet, opera and classical music, though increasingly more popular forms of music have been included as well. The program's correspondents tend to ask nontraditional questions of guests (for instance, actor Brad Pitt was asked about his love of architecture, and Grant Hill about his painting collection). Television essays similar to the kinds delivered on PBS also appear, and the program generally has a stable of equally positive and negative news stories to fill up the program when there is no breaking news of note. Story lengths are longer (lasting up to twelve minutes at a time) and the pace of the program is considerably quieter and more relaxed than CBS Mornings and CBS Saturday Morning, even after those programs began sharing some of Sunday Morning's branding elements.

Commentators Ben Stein and Nancy Giles appear in recurring segments to deliver opinion commentaries, and correspondent Bill Geist also contributes human interest stories. The program ends with a nature scene, not given a formal title for most of the program's history, but since entitled "Moment of Nature" as it is now a sponsored element.

Despite the stereotype of the program appealing primarily to senior citizens, Sunday Morning has actually placed first in its time slot in the key demographic of adults 25–54, beating all of the political discussion-driven Sunday morning talk shows.

On one occasion, in April 1986, the entire program served as a showcase for classical music when a live broadcast of Vladimir Horowitz's historic Moscow piano recital was aired. For that presentation only, the program departed from its usual newsmagazine format and devoted the entire ninety minutes to a complete presentation of the recital. Because the recital was given at 4:00 p.m. Moscow time, CBS was able to broadcast it at 9:00 a.m. Eastern Time. The presentation was such a critical and popular success that it was repeated two months later and was subsequently released on VHS and DVD.

Segments

 * Cover Story: The main topic of that week's broadcast
 * Almanac: A notable event or the birth or death of a person that happened on the same calendar day of the weekly broadcast
 * Profile: A look at the accomplishments of people
 * Pulse: A look at facts by different sources
 * Passage: A person who died within the past week
 * Calendar: A look at the week ahead
 * Moment of Nature: A look at animals and plants at the end of the weekly broadcast

Production
The program is marked by its distinctive Sun of May-style logo, which is prominent in the program's title sequence. In addition, in between some segments, images of the sun in various forms also appear. The show's theme is the trumpet fanfare "Abblasen", attributed to Gottfried Reiche. A recording of the piece on a baroque trumpet by Don Smithers was used as the show's theme for many years until producers decided to replace the vinyl recording with a digital of a piccolo trumpet by Doc Severinsen; the current version is played by Wynton Marsalis.

Sunday Morning and CBS' other morning news programs, under varying names and formats, have remained fully separate productions, though with occasional cross-promotion and some sharing of correspondents. On August 31, 2021, the network announced that its weekday morning show would be relaunched for the latest time as CBS Mornings and its Saturday counterpart as CBS Saturday Morning. Under this latest reformatting, both programs have taken on some branding elements of Sunday Morning like its logo and "Abblasen" fanfare, although with a more contemporary feel and aspects of CBS's new corporate branding. Its second hour also features a larger focus on long-form stories not unlike Sunday Morning.

On May 21, 2023, Sunday Morning received an updated logo and graphics package to align itself with the CBS corporate branding, while preserving the program's existing look and feel in a refreshed form rather than using the versions used by CBS Mornings.

Controversy
Neurologist Steven Novella and paranormal investigator Joe Nickell wrote in separate Skeptical Inquirer articles about Erin Moriarty's lack of skepticism and "complete journalistic fail" over a March 2018 segment in which she showed clips of spoon-bender Uri Geller from the 1980s performing "'psychic parlor tricks'" but instead of explaining to her audience that Geller had been debunked many times, with no mention of the work of James Randi. Novella stated of Moriarty "is (most likely) just an old-school journalist who thinks of paranormal pieces as 'fluff' pieces that don't require journalistic rigor." In another segment Moriarty interviewed psychic Angela Dellafiora Ford, who claims that she "psychically tracked down fugitive drug smuggler Charlie Jordan in 1989." Nickell writes that Moriarty "simply takes Ford at her word" and "gushes" over her. Nickell states that Ford's claims are an example of "retrofitting" and incorrect.

Center for Inquiry (CFI) editor Kendrick Frazier wrote of his disappointment that CBS would air a pro-paranormal segment with Geller and a psychic detective. They also classified parapsychologist Dean Radin as a scientist, which he is not. In a tweet the next day in response to criticism, Moriarty wrote, "We reported on government experiments with the paranormal – supported by declassified Govt documents. We gave time to both those involved and scientists." Frazier responded, "Just because some part of the government initiated a bizarre little research program at some point in the past, that is not itself a validation of the claims it was studying." Further research by CFI timed the segment and "found it more than 97 percent pro-paranormal and only 3 percent skeptical". In a press release, CFI called the Sunday Morning segment a "regrettable lapse ... in the ... usually objective and reliable coverage." and called on the program to "take steps to correct the record" and to "provide a more truthful and scientifically rigorous view of this topic."

Awards and nominations
The program won its first Daytime Emmy Award for Outstanding Morning Program in 2013, beating out Today and Good Morning America in the category. It also won a Peabody Award in 2007 for the feature segment "The Way Home."

Nielsen ratings
The program's special food-themed edition on November 24, 2013, earned Sunday Morning one of its highest ratings since February 4, 1996, watched by over 6.25 million total viewers.

This was surpassed by the January 18, 2015, broadcast, which had a total viewership of 6.79 million viewers, the second largest audience the program earned since January 23, 1994.

March 1, 2015: 6.63 million viewers (sixth-largest audience since the 1987 advent of people meters).

March 22, 2020: 6.82 million viewers (largest audience since 1994).

Hiroshima Castle

Hiroshima Castle (広島城), sometimes called Carp Castle (鯉城), is a castle in Hiroshima, Japan that was the residence of the daimyō (feudal lord) of the Hiroshima Domain. The castle was originally constructed in the 1590s, but was largely destroyed by the atomic bombing on August 6, 1945. The main keep was rebuilt in 1958, a replica of the original that now serves as a museum of Hiroshima's history before World War II, and other castle buildings have been reconstructed since.

History
Mōri Terumoto, one of Toyotomi Hideyoshi's council of Five Elders, built Hiroshima castle between 1589 and 1599. It was located on the delta of the Otagawa river. There was no Hiroshima city or town at the time, and the area was called Gokamura, meaning "five villages". Beginning in 1591, Mōri Terumoto moved from Yoshida-Kōriyama Castle and governed nine provinces from this castle, including much of what are now Shimane, Yamaguchi, Tottori, Okayama and Hiroshima Prefectures.

When construction on the castle began, Gokamura was renamed Hiroshima, as a more impressive name was called for. "Hiro" was taken from Ōe no Hiromoto, an ancestor of the Mōri family, and "Shima" was taken from Fukushima Motonaga, who helped Mōri Terumoto choose the castle site. Some accounts state that the name "Hiroshima", meaning "wide island", comes from the existence of several large islands in the delta of the Otagawa, near the castle's site.

Following the battle of Sekigahara in 1600, Mōri was forced out of the castle, retreating to Hagi in today's Yamaguchi Prefecture. Fukushima Masanori became the lord of Aki and Bingo Provinces (which today make up Hiroshima Prefecture) and of Hiroshima castle. However, the new Tokugawa shogunate forbade any castle construction without permission from Edo; this was part of how the shogunate kept the daimyōs from gaining power and overthrowing the shogunate. When Fukushima repaired the castle following a flood in 1619, he was dispatched to Kawanakajima in today's Nagano Prefecture. Asano Nagaakira then became lord of the castle.

From 1619 until the abolition of the feudal system during the Meiji Restoration (1869), the Asano family were lords of Aki and Bingo Provinces.

After the Meiji Restoration, the castle came to serve as a military facility, and the Imperial General Headquarters was based there during the First Sino-Japanese War in 1894–1895. The foundations of several of the GHQ outbuildings, just a few hundred paces from the castle's main tower, remain today.

During the final months of World War II, the castle served as the headquarters of the 2nd General Army and Fifth Division, stationed there to deter the projected Allied invasion of the Japanese mainland. The castle was destroyed in the atomic bomb blast of August 6, 1945. For many years, it was believed the whole castle structure was blown away by the explosion that destroyed Hiroshima, but evidence newly discovered in 2010 suggests that the explosion only destroyed the lower pillars of the castle, and the rest of it collapsed as a result.

The present tower, constructed largely of concrete, was completed in 1958.

* The years listed are those in which the lord occupied Hiroshima castle, not the years of his life.

** All of the lords after Asano Nagaakira enjoyed the same 426,500 koku''.

Structure
The castle buildings were originally constructed in wood, pine primarily, and the main keep had attached wings to the east and to the south. It was completed sometime between 1592 and 1599, and was designated a National Treasure in 1931. The reconstructed castle originally featured the main tower (tenshu) only, which is made primarily of reinforced concrete. Its five floors stand 26.6 m above the stone foundation, which, in turn, is 12.4 m high off the ground. However, in 1994, a gate and 3 yagura in the ninomaru were re-constructed out of wood using the original methods.

An excellent example of a hirajiro or flatlands (plains) castle, Hiroshima castle once had three concentric moats in addition to the Otagawa river to the west (now called the Hongawa), which provided an additional natural barrier. The two outer moats were filled in during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and much of what was once within the castle grounds is now modern urban area, including homes, schools, offices and shops. A number of secondary castle buildings, towers and turrets once stood, and a Shinto shrine called Hiroshima Gokoku Jinja is located within the innermost moat, having been moved there after 1945.

Within the castle walls, three trees survived the atomic bombing: a eucalyptus and a willow at approximately 740 m from the hypocenter, and a holly approximately 935 m from the hypocenter. Both specimens are preserved just beyond the Honmaru. Also located inside the Honmaru is the concrete bunker from which the first radio broadcast out of Hiroshima following the atomic bombing was made.

 * Second order cellular automaton, Block cellular automaton: My first new articles. They started off as additions to cellular automaton, but that article is already so long that I decided to split them off.
 * Darwin (programming game): A predecessor of Core War. Earlier versions incorrectly identified the two games.  I corrected the claim, and created a separate article for the original game.
 * Base 36: Someone decided to name this numeral system after himself and create a vanity article about it. I caught it on Special:Newpages, nominated it for deletion and, since no proper article existed on the subject, decided to start one.
 * Dental drill: I wanted to link to this article from the reference desk but discovered that it didn't exist. I decided it was easier to start it myself than to request that someone else do it.
 * Electronic Frontier Finland: Finnish on-line civil rights organization. I'm a member, I figured the least I could do was start a stub for them.
 * van der Corput sequence: A low-discrepancy sequence over the unit interval.
 * Eurasian Least Shrew: The second-smallest mammal in the world after the Etruscan Pygmy Shrew.
 * Wolfram code: A brief explanation of this rather opaque way of numbering cellular automaton rules.
 * Advice to AOL users: So you're an AOL user and you've just found yourself blocked from editing. What to do?
 * Fisher-Yates shuffle: A popular and efficient shuffling algorithm that dates back to 1938.
 * Bagheera kiplingi: The only (mostly) herbivorous spider known so far. (With thanks to Sarefo for [ turning] my awkward stub into a real article.)

Articles I've worked on

 * Core War: Rewrote about half of the article. Still need to complete the job.  Also recently started work on Redcode.
 * False morel: This article was a mess after multiple editors had added contradictory claims seemingly at random positions. I rewrote it and gyromitrin almost completely, trying to put the important part (don't eat them raw!) first.
 * Siberian Flying Squirrel: Translated from Finnish. Could use more references.

Article rescue
These are some articles I've spotted during new pages patrol or found on CAT:CSD and cleaned up and/or wikified. The diffs include my original improvements; often others have since picked up from where I left.

 * Human rights in Finland (diff)
 * Kelimutu (diff)
 * Hilda and Zelda (diff)
 * The True Confessions of Charlotte Doyle (diff)
 * Bhoral (diff)
 * Jack Churchill (diff)
 * George Baerveldt (diff)
 * Ezra Fitch (diff)
 * Kenneth Molloy (diff)
 * Licking (diff, rescued from AfD)
 * North Oconee High School (diff)
 * In The Clear (diff)

Templates

 * Template:Familytree: A template for creating simple HTML/CSS family trees using an ASCII art -like syntax.
 * Template:Stars: A twisted little template for displaying star ratings in album infoboxes.

User scripts
''Here are some user scripts I've written. See User:Ilmari Karonen/scripts for the full list, including obsolete and broken scripts.''

To do
This is my personal shopping list of articles that are either missing or in need of improvement. By listing them here, I hopefully won't forget them so easily.

 * Netpbm needs expansion and redirects from the tool names listed at http://netpbm.sourceforge.net/doc/directory.html.
 * Should take a closer look at Redcode and Core War to see if they still need expansion.
 * Cellular automaton is a rambling mess, a lot of it could be split into subarticles

Toyota New Zealand

Toyota New Zealand Limited is the importer and distributor of new Toyota and Lexus vehicles to New Zealand. It also imports used vehicles from Japan and refurbishes them at its former assembly plant in Thames.

Until 1998 it also assembled a variety of completely knocked down vehicles from imported and New Zealand materials. Its headquarters are in Palmerston North. There is a national sales office and import administration office in Auckland.

Local manufacturing

 * See Automotive industry in New Zealand

From the mid-1960s Toyota sold a variety of its vehicles to its New Zealand sole agent, locally owned vehicle import-licence holder and vehicle distributor Consolidated Motor Industries incorporated in November 1965. Toyota owned no New Zealand import system or distribution or dealership chain but worked towards acquiring a shareholding in Consolidated. Consolidated Motor Industries was renamed in November 1970 Consolidated Motor Distributors.

Consolidated Motor Industries (Cable Price Downer and Wright Stephenson later a part of Challenge Corporation) arranged for the completely knocked down Toyota vehicles to be assembled by Steel Motor Assemblies in Christchurch —first vehicle was a Corona in February 1967, and Campbell Motor Industries in Thames —first was a Corolla in April 1968. Over the next 25 years Toyota slowly acquired ownership of these three businesses completing acquisition in 1992 and during that intervening period when they gained control of them renaming them Toyota New Zealand (previously Consolidated Motor Distributors), Toyota New Zealand Christchurch and Toyota New Zealand Thames.

Locally produced components were also used, and included items such as tyres, seats, trims, glass, car audio and consumable items. Vehicles that were locally assembled were Toyota Starlet, Corolla, Corona, Crown, Cressida, Hilux, LiteAce, Land Cruiser and HiAce. Assembly ended in Christchurch in September 1996 and in Thames October 1998. Toyota's remaining factory at Thames became a refurbishment centre for the resale of used imports from Japan, designated as Signature Class.

During 1998 tariffs on cars imported fully assembled ended as the final step of a long-term New Zealand Government plan for the industry. The remaining four local assemblers — Mitsubishi (June), Nissan (July), Honda (August) and Toyota (October) — all ended local assembly and switched to importing fully built-up vehicles.

Cars manufactured in Australia, including Toyota Australia's Camry, were already being imported into New Zealand duty-free under the Closer Economic Relations (CER) agreement.

New vehicles
New Toyota and Lexus vehicles are sourced from Japan (Corolla, HiAce, RAV4, Yaris, GR Yaris, Land Cruiser, 86, Previa, Prius, Camry), Austria (GR Supra), Thailand (HiLux, Fortuner, Corolla) and the United States of America (Highlander).

Used vehicles
Toyota New Zealand imports used Toyotas purchased in Japan and certifies them to specific standards at the Thames Vehicle Operations facility. Ex-lease Toyotas originally sold new in New Zealand are refurbished and sold under Toyota NZ's "Signature Class" brand.

Distribution
Toyota New Zealand sells new Toyota and Lexus vehicles as well as used vehicles, parts and service. The key operations are at three widely separated locations: the National Customer Centre in Palmerston North, Signature Vehicle Operations in Thames and a Port of Entry facility and Corporate Sales Office in Auckland. In 2014 Toyota celebrated 27 years of vehicle market leadership in New Zealand.

Roger Moens

Roger Moens (born 26 April 1930) is a Belgian former middle-distance runner. In 1955 he broke Rudolf Harbig's long-standing world record over 800 meters. At the 1960 Summer Olympics in Rome he won a silver medal in the 800 m.

Biography
On 3 August 1955, in the Bislett Stadium in Oslo, Moens improved Rudolf Harbig's 16-year-old 800-meter world record of 1:46.6, running 1.45.7. He finished two-tenths of a second ahead of Norwegian Audun Boysen, who was also under the previous world record.

Moens' global record would stand for seven years, until it was improved in 1962 by New Zealander Peter Snell. As a Belgian record it stood for 20 years until broken in 1975 by Ivo Van Damme, who ran 1:45.31.

On 8 August 1956, Moens along with his teammates set a world record in the 4 × 800 meter relay with a time of 7.15.8. Yet he did not go to the Melbourne Olympic Games, which took place in November. In training at night on a tennis court, he ran into a pole, injured himself, and, as world record holder and Olympic favorite, was forced to withdraw from the Games.

At the Rome Olympic Games in 1960, Moens at the age of 30 felt confident about the 800 meters. Biding his time in the race, Moens followed the pack, waiting to unleash his final sprint in the straightaway. Coming off the final turn and into the straight, Moens moved strongly into the lead and appeared to have the race won but Snell, a complete unknown at the time, passed him on the left shortly before the finish tape. Snell won by inches in 1:46.3 to Moens' 1:46.5. Immediately after the finish Moens threw himself on the grass and stayed there with his head in his hands. Years later, when asked whether the final in Rome still haunted him, he said, "Ah, it makes no sense to look back."

After retiring from competitions Moens served as a sports commentator for VRT; he interviewed his former rival Snell at the 1964 Olympics in Tokyo. A criminology graduate he also worked for the Belgian judicial police, eventually becoming a commissioner general.
