Gaylussacia

Gaylussacia is a genus of about fifty species of flowering plants in the family Ericaceae, native to the Americas, where they occur in eastern North America and in South America in the Andes and the mountains of southeastern Brazil (the majority of the known species). Common English names include huckleberry (shared with plants in several other genera) and "dangleberry".

Gaylussacia plants are often a component of an oak-heath forest. They are deciduous or evergreen shrubs growing to a height of 0.4 - 1.8 m.

Ecology
Gaylussacia species are used as food plants by the larvae of some Lepidoptera (butterflies and moths) species including Coleophora gaylussaciella (which feeds exclusively on Gaylussacia) and Coleophora multicristatella.

Classification
Gaylussacia is named in honor of the French chemist Joseph Louis Gay-Lussac (1778–1850). It is closely related to Vaccinium, and it is still unclear whether the commonly understood line between Vaccinium and Gaylussacia is justified. A 2002 paper found that molecular data did not support past divisions of Gaylussacia into sections.

Fossil record
Pliocene seed and fruit fossils of †Gaylussacia rhenana are described from sand-filled river-channels in the brown coal pit of Fortuna-Garsdorf near Bergheim, North Rhine-Westphalia in Germany.

Foreign Affairs Council

The Foreign Affairs Council (FAC) is a configuration of the Council of the European Union that convenes once a month. Meetings bring together the foreign ministers of the member states. Ministers responsible for European affairs, defence, development or trade also participate depending on the items on agenda. The configuration is unique in that is chaired by the High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy (HR/VP) rather than the member state holding the presidency of the Council of the European Union. There is one exception, when the FAC meets in the configuration of ministers responsible for trade (FAC/Trade), with the presiding member state's minister chairing the meeting.

At its sessions, the FAC deals with the whole of the EU's external action, including Common Foreign and Security Policy (CFSP), Common Security and Defence Policy (CSDP), foreign trade and development cooperation. A priority in recent years for the FAC, in cooperation with the European Commission, has been to ensure coherence in the EU's external action across the range of instruments at the EU's disposal.

Composition
The Foreign Affairs Council gathers different representatives at ministerial level depending on the agenda of a certain Council meeting. Normally the foreign ministers of each country, or their representatives participate, such as permanent representatives, state secretaries etc. In other cases, defence ministers, trade ministers or development ministers participate.

History
The FAC was created in 2009 by the Treaty of Lisbon by splitting it from the "General Affairs and External Relations Council" with the other part becoming the General Affairs Council. The General and Foreign Councils are the only two Councils mentioned in the EU treaties.

Talk:Native Tongues

I added linkt to Naughty By Nature since they where quite loosely associated with NTP in the later days of the posse.

Contested Members

 * Common
 * Talib Kweli
 * Shortie No Mass
 * Naughty By Nature
 * Fu-Shnickens

It seems to be "common knowledge" that Talib Kweli and Common are mombers of the Native Tongues, but i disagree. Just because they collaborated doens't make them members, especially during periods the collective was in disarray. If anyone has any counterpoints or other suggestions, please discuss. Es-won 20:33, 24 June 2007 (UTC)

If I am not mistaken, wasn't naughty by nature a member of the NTP? They were in the NTP collabrative video back in 93. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.166.47.172 (talk) 21:20, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

Naughty By Nature were not members of the Native Tongues collective. They had a brief conflict with De La Soul at one time.

Souls Of Mischief,Del Tha Funkee Homosapien and the rest of the Hieroglyphics crew are also not affiliated with the Native Tongues. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Steeltownbrown (talk • contribs) 00:13, 21 June 2010 (UTC)

De La Soul in a interview with Much Music back in 1996 stated the following members of the Native Tongue-Jungle Brothers, A Tribe Called Quest, Black Sheep, Fu-Schnickens, Common, Truth Enola and Mos Def.

Brand Nubian added to affiliates after confirmation in the documentary "Beats, Rhymes and Life: The Travels of A Tribe Called Quest"

60.241.154.111 (talk) 11:18, 27 June 2011 (UTC)

Effect outside of the music industry?
Did this less individualistic, more affiliatonal approach (family) have an effect in the wider culture? Did it affect television, film, literature? How successful was this approach - in terms of concert attendance, record sales, music charting (radio station play), awards - or even in other ways that aren't as easily measured? How did the more individualistic rap & hip hop artists respond? I have no idea; just asking out of curiosity. Ileanadu (talk) 21:28, 15 October 2017 (UTC)

Romance of Thebes

The Romance of Thebes (Le Roman de Thèbes) is a poem of some 10,000 lines that appears to be based on an abridged version of the Thebaid of Statius. This view is supported by the omission of incidents and details which, in spite of the altered conditions under which the poem was composed, would naturally have been preserved in any imitation of the Thebaid, while again certain modifications of the version of Statius can hardly be due to the author's invention but point to an ancient origin.

As in other poems of the same kind, the marvellous disappears; the Greeks adopt the French methods of warfare and the French code of chivalric love. The Roman dates from the 12th century (c. 1150-55), and is written, not in the tirades of the chansons de geste, but in octosyllabic rhymed couplets. It was once attributed to Benoît de Sainte-Maure; but all that can be said is that the Thebes is prior to the Roman de Troie, of which Benoît was undoubtedly the author.

The Thebes is preserved also in several French prose redactions, the first of which, printed in the 16th century under the name of Edipus, belongs to the early years of the 13th century, and originally formed part of a compilation of ancient history, Histoire ancienne jusqu'à Caesar. The first volume of Les histoires de Paul Crose traduites en français contains a free and amplified version of the Thebes.

Influence
The Siege of Thebes, translated from a French redaction of the Roman de Thebes in about 1420 by John Lydgate was a supplementary Canterbury Tale, that was printed by Wynkyn de Worde about 1500.

From the Roman de Thebes also were possibly derived the Ipomedon and its sequel Protheselaus, two romans d'aventures written about the end of the 12th century by Hugh of Rhuddlan, an Anglo-Norman poet who lived in Credenhill, near Hereford. The author asserts that he translated from a Latin book lent him by Gilbert Fitz-Baderon, 4th lord of Monmouth, but in reality he has written romances of chivalry on the usual lines, the names of the characters alone being derived from antiquity.

Fang La

Fang La (died 1121) was a Chinese rebel leader who led an uprising against the Song dynasty. In the classical novel Water Margin, he is fictionalised as one of the primary antagonists and nemeses of the 108 Stars of Destiny. He is sometimes associated with Manichaeism but was most likely not a follower of the religion.

Life
Fang La was from Shezhou, which is roughly present-day She County, Anhui. However, other sources claimed that he was from Qingxi County (清溪縣), which is present-day Chun'an County, Zhejiang. In 1120, he led an uprising against the Song Empire in Qixian Village (七賢村), Shezhou. Others claimed that he started the rebellion in Wannian District (萬年鄉), Chun'an County. Fang La's forces captured Hangzhou and subsequently took control over parts of present-day Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Anhui and Jiangxi provinces, with a total of 52 counties and six prefectures.

In 1121, the Song government sent a general, Wang Yuan (王淵), to lead an army to crush the rebellion. Wang Yuan's subordinate, Han Shizhong, disguised himself, infiltrated Qingxi County and captured Fang La. Later, Xin Xingzong (辛興宗), the Song general defending Zhongzhou (忠州), led his troops to block Qingxi County's exit route and regained control of the county. Fang La and 52 of his subordinates were captured and escorted by the general Tong Guan to the imperial capital, Kaifeng. Four months later, Fang La was found guilty of treason and executed in Kaifeng.

By 1132–1133 or later, the rebellion was linked to Manichaeism. Though not originally connected, in the public and historical conscience it became confused with the Taizhou unrest of April–June 1121, where Manichaeism was widespread.

In Water Margin
The classical novel Water Margin presents a semi-fictional account of Fang La and his battle with the Liangshan outlaws. After granting the outlaws amnesty, Emperor Huizong sends them on military campaigns to suppress rebel forces within the Song Empire and counter invaders from the Liao Empire in the north. Fang La is one of the rebel leaders based in the Jiangnan region.

Whilst the Liangshan forces suffered hardly any casualties in the campaigns against the Liao Empire and the rebel forces of Tian Hu and Wang Qing, the campaign against Fang La proved to be calamitous. 59 of the original 108 heroes were killed in action, mostly by Fang La's warriors, whose combat skills and abilities rival the best of Liangshan. Unlike the other rebels who lack good leadership and experience, Fang La has established a solid foundation in the Jiangnan region with many capable people serving under him.

Fang La is eventually captured by the Liangshan heroes after an elaborate infiltration scheme involving Chai Jin and Yan Qing. During his escape attempt, he is defeated by Lu Zhishen and escorted back to Kaifeng by imperial troops under Tong Guan. Four months later, Fang La is found guilty of treason and executed by lingchi.

Bruce Bouillet

Bruce Allan Bouillet (born February 3, 1965) is an American guitarist. He has played guitar for a variety of bands, most notably Racer X, The Scream, DC-10, and Epidemic. Bouillet is known for his technically proficient playing style and speed.

Early life
Bruce Bouillet was born on a naval base in Memphis, Tennessee, and relocated to Vincennes, Indiana at a very young age. His father, a bluegrass player, exposed him early on to country and bluegrass music. At age 12, Bouillet saw Judas Priest open for KISS on the Unleashed in the East Tour, thinking they were a religious band, and immediately committed himself to becoming a guitar player with the full support of his parents. Shortly afterwards, his parents bought him his first guitar and amp. A problem child who spent most of his time at home, Bouillet spent a commanding amount of his time practicing the guitar. After gaining a presence in the local rock scene, he desired to seek greater success in Los Angeles (dissuaded by the cold winter climates of Chicago and New York City). As he was nearing his high school graduation, he saw an ad in a guitar magazine for the GIT (Guitar Institute of Technology) at Musician's Institute in Hollywood and moved west.

Racer X
In the mid-1980s, Bouillet was a student at GIT. On his first day, he saw Racer X guitarist Paul Gilbert, then 17 years old, playing his graduation performance with the first Racer X lineup. Bouillet, starstruck, filled out a questionnaire and demanded to learn the techniques that he'd seen onstage. Shortly after, Gilbert became an instructor at GIT and was assigned to Bruce as his private tutor. Bruce would rigorously practice the sequences that Gilbert demonstrated to him, and they became friends due to their similar senses of humor. One day, he passed by an open counseling that Gilbert was giving and was subsequently invited in. Gilbert was demonstrating a difficult and innovative string-skipping sequence, and Bruce was able to harmonize it on the spot. Bouillet would later refer to this performance as "the luckiest break I've ever had." He was immediately given a copy of Street Lethal by Gilbert and invited to an audition as the second guitar player in Racer X. Despite his confidence that he would not get the job, Bouillet was assisted by Gilbert when he had difficulty figuring out guitar parts on the record. Finally, in 1986, Bouillet was added as the second guitarist and began touring the local club scene.

While touring with Racer X, Bouillet was also a sought-after instructor at GIT alongside Gilbert and Russ Parrish.

In winter of 1986, Racer X recorded their sophomore album, Second Heat, with compositions relying more on harmonized and dueling guitar solos. In order to perform these songs live, Paul and Bruce would often practice for 8 hours a day due to the technically demanding nature of the lead parts. During touring for Second Heat, the band recorded the Extreme Volume live album and Paul Gilbert was approached by Talas bassist Billy Sheehan with the proposition of forming a band. Their union would later crystallize into Mr. Big, and Paul quit Racer X shortly after.

Racer X continued without Gilbert for a short time, his replacement being Guitar Spotlight guitarist Chris Arvan. However, Bouillet later became jaded at Racer X's marketability when they failed to sell out a 1200-seat club on a weekday. Additionally, he had become afflicted with both tinnitus and carpal tunnel syndrome and missed several Racer X shows towards the end of their original run. With all the members of Racer X ready to move on to other projects, the band played its final show at the Omni in Oakland, California and broke up.

Bouillet played on Racer X's Second Heat, Live Extreme - Vol.I, and Live Extreme - Vol. II. After leaving the band, he joined former Angora singer John Corabi, and his former Racer X bandmates John Alderete and Scott Travis to form the band The Scream. Scott Travis soon left to join Judas Priest and was replaced by Walt Woodward III. During a tour in Europe, John Alderete showed Bruce albums by the Red Hot Chili Peppers and Nirvana, leading him to realize that the musical landscape was changing in a way that would not bode well for a Los Angeles rock band. That day, Bouillet and Alderete got into a significant fight with Woodward and Corabi about the band's future marketability. The Scream broke up shortly after.

2001-present
Bouillet formed the band Epidemic on Elektra Records in 2001. In June 2002, the band released their self-titled album. They toured as the opening act for Breaking Benjamin, Hatebreed, Seether, Jerry Cantrell, and other bands. They also released a single off that album, titled "Walk Away", which cracked the Top 40 Active Rock chart higher than acts like Tonic, and Eighteen Visions. "Walk Away" also appeared on the Madden NFL: 2003 video game. That same year, the group disbanded.

After Epidemic, Bouillet produced theme music for World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) wrestler, Triple H. The WWE album went gold. In 2005, Bouillet won a Grammy for his work with Bob Kulick on the production, recording, and mixing Motörhead's cover of Metallica's "Whiplash".

From 2005-2007, he joined with Bottom Dwellerz Productions and co-produced the Bottom Dwellerz album.

It was announced on 8/9/2011 that Bouillet had become the new guitarist of Asia featuring John Payne.

In 2013, he released an Instrumental album The Order Of Control on Mascot Records.

G3 Tour
Bouillet completed a G3 tour in 2007 that featured Paul Gilbert, John Petrucci, and Joe Satriani. Bouillet was in Gilbert's band for the tour.

Personal life
Bouillet has two brothers, Aaron and Brian. He has a daughter, Tara, two nieces, Anna and Danielle, and three nephews, Evan, Chandler, Blair.

Buddhism
Obviously you've never dealt with survey statistics before. Asking someone a yes or no question is not the same as asking them to identifiy with a group. In the case of the Buddhism statistic, this wasn't a survey that had people answer the question "Are you Buddhist or not?" but rather it was a question that had people pick their religion from a list. This is comparing two different kinds of statistical polling and is therefore removed. Joshuaschroeder 19:19, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

Sorry about giving you a hard time on the ILS page, hope you don't mind. I'm just trying to help make things accurate, but not too complicated. I agree with removing that tech section. I'm kind of looking for an image of a Course deviation indicator for the ILS page and the CDI page. Maybe you have a good picture of one laying around you can scan in or upload. It doesn't look like I can find one in my collection. Nothing suitable on wikipedia or wiki commons. I was thinking of cropping one out of a cockpit picture, but none of those are high quality enough to show the detail of the needles, etc. Thanks for the help. --Dual Freq 00:16, 5 January 2006 (UTC)

Apologies for the edit on ACAS. I incorrectly thought it was about systems for airborne collision avoidance in general, and should have read the first paragraph. JMcC 21:36, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

RNP
Thanks for comments on RNP 19-Jun. Assume you will probably take a crack at it. Agree that RNP is not a "technology", nor is it limited to GPS as sensor -- bad word choices (although I am not aware of any RNP procedures in service that rely on other sensors). Let's fix. As for CDA -- my understanding is that RNP procedures do/can incorporate Constant Descent Approach -- not just constant angle. Did not mean to imply that only RNP can do CDA. rgds -- Wolfeboro325 21:10, 19 June 2007 (UTC)
 * My inclination is to remove it. As I tried to make clear, (almost?) all of it has nothing to do with RNP. RNP is not something that is confined to the terminal area, and the reasons for its development apply just as much to remote and/or oceanic areas as to terminal areas.
 * Constant descent approach is not a term in normal use. I believe this is a confusion between Continuous Descent Approach and Constant Descent Angle approach. As I said, the first is a technique aimed at avoiding level flight at low levels, the second is a method of flying the final approach intended to promote stable approaches. Neither has anything to do with RNP. Both can be (and have been for many years) accomplished with any aid that gives a reasonably accurate distance to run figure. treesmill 13:38, 24 June 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Pete Rademacher

Untitled
I met Pete Rademacher when he was training at "The Arena" in Columbus Georgia for his fight against Floyd Patterson. I was learning Judo from Marcel Carles, the hand-to-hand combat instructor for the Rangers at Ft. Benning. Pete was punching the heavy bag when Marcel said to him: "Come on over here with us, Pete." To which Pete said "I'm not crazy enough to come over there with you, Marcel". As I stood there with Marcel, I wondered what was wrong why the heavyweight contender refused. I soon found out how bad/tough/fast Marcel really was. Captain Jim Cummings 9/26/2012 - I just met Pete in Spencer, OH. Very personalable. He still carries his gold medal and is very proud of his past. 208.93.187.43 (talk) 18:38, 26 September 2012 (UTC) Sandy Austin

A possible Great ruined
Much is made of the fact that Pete fought his first pro fight for the world heavyweight title against Patterson. It makes Rademacher a trivia question, but misses the point about his talent or the career he could have had if he'd gone the regular route as a pro. A pro heavyweight needs two years to be a legitimate contender. Pete, had he gone this way, would have likely won 20 straight fights against third and second-tier heavies. He also would have been the most celebrated young contender perhaps ever, up to his time at least. He might have had a loss or two, but would have eventually went for the belt against Patterson, Liston or Ali, or any combination of the three, perhaps all of them. If Pete goes this route and waits two years before facing Patterson, he likely beats him. So this is a possible world champion we are talking about. But he and his promotors threw it away for a shot at the title in his first fight. Going the right way, Rademacher might have had 40 or more career wins with a career that would spanned much of the 1960s, with 6-9 losses or so. He might even have been champ. Instead, he's trivia question and a could-have-been.

Whose Record?
In the Professional boxing record box, there's a column headed "Record." Shouldn't that show his wins, losses and ties through that fight? Looks like it's the record of his opponent. If that's the case, that information should probably be listed after the opponent's name and Pete's record shown under "Record."Bro rick (talk) 22:38, 4 June 2016 (UTC)

Wrote a first draft and added some pictures I took last week. I will try to take some nicer pictures this weekend, especially of younger specimens and pictures of color and gill attachment by cutting the mushroom in half.

This page also needs to be spellchecked and needs to be crosslinked with many other articles. I will try to style the page and add some more history about the mushroom (like when/who isolated the toxin) and maybe some statistics about poisoning.

Talk:Polska (dance)

Untitled
The current version of this article make it sound like sixteenth-note polska equals slängpolska, which I hardly think is correct. Rather I suppose slängpolska is a version of sixteenth-note polska. / Habj 14:07, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

There are many slängpolska, some sixteenth-note, some triplets (like Slängpolska från Västerbotten), and some are not even pair dances (e.g., Slängpolska från Vikbolandet is for two pairs). However, the most common type of slängpolsa is usually referred to simply as "slängpolska" (although I believe it also has a longer name indicating the region it comes from). I heard that "slängpolska" originally just meant that it contains fast rotation (indeed one of the turns in the "common" slängpolska is a fast rotation). Also, I woudn't say it's that similar to salsa or swing. It has some resemblance since the dancers usually only touch each other in their hands, you dance on one spot rather than in a circle, and it is composed of several tours improvised in sequence, but the pace and "mood" are very different - much less extrovert and perhaps more beautiful than playful. --130.243.176.249 22:51, 8 March 2006 (UTC)

I removed an earlier comment of mine that was no longer pertinent.Cpgruber 18:41, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

Writer's notes: The term "polska" is not typically capitalized in Scandinavian langauges. Even to the point that a polska from a particular village is not capitalized--for example, the polska danced in the village of Boda is written out as "bodapolska" without capitalization. An editor went through and capitalized Polska throughtout the article. I will thnk about this for a couple of days, but probably go back through and revert to the Scandinavian usage.

The plural of "polska" is "polskor" in Swedish and plurals are formed similarly in other Scandinavian languages. In this case, however, I have preferred to use the circumlocution "polska dances." Attempting to use the Scandinavian form in the middle of an Engliah text sounds strange and incorrect, no matter how many years you have heard it.

There has been a request for sources. I will try to come up with some. Yet this is a folk tradition and almost everything is passed down orally from person to person and teacher to student. There are scholarly works, but very few, all available only in the local language and most occuring as dissertations or in other forms that are very narrow in focus and not widely available. Nor am I a scholar or anything more than a committed amateur in this area. I have played the music (fiddle) and dance the dances (mostly Swedish) for over 15 years, attend workshops in the US and Scandinavia amounting to 4 or more weeks a year. The people I learn from are either current tradiation bearers (in the music) or the current master teachers (dance) who learned directly from the scholars who did the original dance research in the 1950's and 1960's. I am confident that even those with a far stronger background than mine would find the current gloss to be acceptable.Cpgruber 18:41, 14 May 2007 (UTC)
 * If you have not already done so, please take note of the discussion at RFF, in which I commented about the capitalisation of proper nouns and queried what the local usage was. But ultimately, even though I am - in principle - open to the idea of respecting local usage, this is the English Wikipedia and the MOS acknowledges the importance of proper English usage in these circumstances, be that British, American, or whatever. I think you are right about the plural usage; I would either pick your choice of "polska dances" or perhaps use polskor if it was italicised (as is conventional with foreign terms) and clarified upon (or prior to) its first occurrence. But again, the consensus tends to prefer minimising foreign terms where practical. This article is an interesting excercise in dealing with mixed languages. Adrian   M. H.  19:01, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

Thanks very much MHA! I will work on this intermittantly. Hope you may check again some time this summer. I have looked through other Wikipedia dance references and found that the names of dances are not capitalized, at least at the broadest level where they refer to a class of dances--for example, see entries for "waltz" and "tango." Even when made particularl to a subclass the stay lower case, for example "Finnish tango" or Viennese waltz". Only when unique dance is named is the word capitalized, for example "Eva's Waltz" as the name of a specific tune or a specific choreography. But that is a minor quibble. I have also now figured out how to use RFF and reviewed your comments there. I see I have my work cut out for me. I accept the charge!Cpgruber 15:52, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

Thanks very much for the added external links. They add a lot! I note the link of Jeanette Eriksson playing slangpolska. It is very nice and the fact that it comes from tvfolk suggests that she is a recognized talent in the area. However, as the only such link (and the only "footnote") it seems odd. I suggest leaving it in for now, but then looking to replace it with a more coherent and complete set of examples. For Sweden I suggest Pelle Bjornlert for 16th note, Pers Hans Olsson for 8th note [both have tvfolk video), and the Lasse Sorlin, Richard Näslin, Kjelle Erik Eriksson or one of the Andersson brothers from Foellinge for triplet [I saw no Jämtland fiddlers on tvfolk which seems wrong to me). For Norway perhaps Tore Bolsadt for Valdress and Sven Nyhus (or Brekkinge Spelmanslag) for Rorospols. I sm not sure who to suggest for Telespringar and Hallingspringar.Cpgruber 18:26, 26 June 2007 (UTC)

Removed a sentence/paragraph on minuets that had been added to the opening section as 1) minuets were already mentioned later in the article, 2) the addition mentioned only Finland while the minuet is danced in both Finland and Denmark and 3) the tone/style seemed parenthical/informal and so not great in the opening section.Plskmn 20:34, 10 August 2007 (UTC)

Reverted edit that had included a loose list of other folk dances from Sweden. Since this article is narrowly about polskas, putting such a list in the body seemed innappropriate. In the final "See also" section there are many other articles where such dances are discussed. In particular, see perhaps "gammaldans" which document hambo, waltz, schottis, snoa, and mazurka. Several others on the list were actually forms of "polska" and mentioned elsewhere in the article, again making the separate listing seem innappropriate.Plskmn (talk) 05:15, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

Several of the edits of 17 April seem "off point". The pronunciation of polska, for example, doesn't make a point relevent to the content and breaks up the presentation. The point about the Polish meaning of the word, while interesting, seems a bit obscure and, at a minimum, would seem to need some citation to justify inclusion in this article (i.e., it seems like a loose "personal insight" rather something backed by historical or scholarly evidence). Similarly, the comment about stressing beat 1 in the hambo, while true for the hambo, 1) appears in a paragraph that does not discuss how beats are stressed, concerns a dance that grew out of but is not really in the family of polska dances and 3) opens, at an inappropriate time and without development a topic that is pretty complex. I'll wait a day or so to see if anyone has other comment, but am then likely to revert these points.Plskmn (talk) 17:05, 17 April 2008 (UTC)

 * Stressing beat 1 is a very common error. A change the music to a hambo so it belongs to this article. --Dala11a (talk) 23:13, 17 April 2008 (UTC)

 * Well, Yes, stressing the first beat does change things. It is particularly a problem with boda polskas which are probably the closest to hambo if one looks solely at written notes. You definitely can go very wrong there with even a minor movement of the stress. However, there are other true polska(s) where a subtler kind of stress is placed on beat one--for example, the slangpolska from Småland or southeast Sweden which, although it is generally described as 'smooth' does have a stress and occasionally a lengthing of the first beat, often on the first of the paired measures and then even more so as a phrase is introduced or repeated. The point is that at the place the comment was inserted, the article was not focused on the stress applied to beats. And already the article is probably far too narrow and technical for an 'encyclopedia' type presentation. And I say that as the primary author. So I do think that plunging back in and trying to plug up all the narrowish distinctions is probably a bad idea? Let's continue the conversation a bit before being too adamant about what goes in or stays in? For example, I did not revert your edits, merely called attention to the problems that I noted.Plskmn (talk) 00:26, 18 April 2008 (UTC)

Hi Dala11a. Thanks for the additions! Do you have access to the writings of Invar Normasson or the Karlholms? Or to any of the various books put out by the Ungdomsringen with the descriptions of the deances? It would be reaally much better for the article if some of the statements made could be linked to these kinds of authorities. Both you and I appear to be writing pretty much off the cuff, basing our views on conversations we may have had with teachers or other dancers. I'd certainly appreciate our putting in citations of actual written documents that could give things a better grounding.

My edits were, for the most part, just putting things in a bit more readable form. The only thing I reverted was where I changed your "in parts of Sweden" back to "with few execeptions. To say "in parts of Sweden" means, in English usage, the same as "while polska tradition disappeared in some places it continued in most of the country." I do not think that is true as I am only aware of Boda in Dalarna and--somewhat controversially--perhaps Foellinge in Jaemtland as villages where dances have existed continuously to the present day. Perhaps there was some part of the meaning of "wtih few exceptions" that troubled you and you wanted to replace. Let's talk it over here before rewriting or reverting that element? Plskmn (talk) 14:46, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
 * I have access to almost all books where Ingvar Norman is one of the editors. The dance descriptions Beskrivning av Svenska Folkdanser II are sold by Svenska Folkdansringen  www.folkdansringen.se.   His collection of more than 2000 printed music is still sold by Ann-Christine Östlund Bäckehag a relative to him in Sweden(they include no description of how to dance). What specific details are you thinking about when you write  "could be linked to these kinds of authorities"? --Dala11a (talk) 15:42, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

Hello, folks. As it has obviously been many years since the discussion was had, and I fear it will be as many more until this comment is read (if ever), I wonder if you'll permit me to share with you a fact you may (or may not) find insightful (though not necessarily helpful, per se (and yes, I *will* now stop with the paranthetics (yes, that's an intentionally-made-up word - I say that as one never knows around here (OK, so I lied about stopping (a little))))): in normal Polish usage, adjectival forms deriving from proper nouns are *NOT* capitalized. That is, when referring to, say, "Polska" in Polish - as in, "Poland", the noun - then it remains capitalized as in common usage in English. However, unlike with the English "a Polish girl", in Polish, the equivalent expression would appear as "dziewczyna polska". (Well (and here I apologize for making the lie even worse), the fact is that such a phrase would actually almost never be seen, as instead, in Polish one would almost certainly instead refer to a "Polka [młoda]" - as in, "a [young] Polish female", rather than using the somewhat stiff phrase I offered earlier. And we certainly need not dwell on this preferred usage's similarity (as it were) to the (English (and elsewhere)) title of another well-known (though not necessarily Scandinavian) dance. Is this worth poring over? Nope.) However, back in Serious-World, if we are to accept the hypothesis that the dances are indeed the influence of the Polish aristocratic court, then perhaps it's not much of a further effort to consider that this rather idiosyncratic orthographic fact may well have played a part in the lack of capitalization as seen throughout Scandinavia in the name of this article's eponymous dance. Just a thought. All the best. Fabulous discussions, all around. Pimpoosh (talk) 02:00, 9 May 2012 (UTC)

 * It didn't redirect here until recently. It redirected to Poland for over four years until the nominator changed it and was a disambiguation page before that. —  AjaxSmack   23:56, 7 November 2015 (UTC)

 * Oppose until the nom and User:Cavarrone address the issue of the Polska (disambiguation) page and supply evidence that the dance is the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. Poland was the de facto primary topic until a few days ago.  A cursory Google search of "Polska" reveals only one hit for the dance among the top 50 (the Wikipedia article).  Note also that there are a number of other pages beginning with "Polska".  —  AjaxSmack   23:56, 7 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Are you telling us that Polska has other meanings in English language? In what dictionary did you find that "Polska" means "Poland" in English? The disambiguation page is nonsense. I did not notice it and I am putting it for deletion. Staszek Lem (talk) 01:50, 12 November 2015 (UTC)
 * I'm not telling anything. You're supposed to do that in the nomination.  I just noticed none of the top 50 Google hits for "Polska" is about dance except the Wikipedia article.  It strains credulity that this would be the case if the dance was/were indeed the primary topic.  Cf. Deutschland which is not the English name for Germany but which redirects to Germany even though there are many other meanings of "Deutschland" in English.  Ditto for Italia, Sverige, and a host of others.  Even though Polska is not the English name for Poland, it is still probably "much more likely than any other topic...to be the topic sought when a reader searches for that term".  —  AjaxSmack   16:55, 14 November 2015 (UTC)

Comment I think I found what happened here: someone copied a bunch of tables from Polish-language sources and was lazy to busily replace country names. As a result, e.g., Japonia is ridiculously linked to ski jumpers. I have already cleaned up "Polska" but there are more ski-jumping countries left. Staszek Lem (talk) 18:31, 12 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Oppose per WP:ASTONISH. I had no idea this was a dance and would expect Polska to be a redirect to Poland. I also think the recent change of that redirect from Poland to the dance should be reverted as controversial/undiscussed. Number   5  7  09:53, 20 November 2015 (UTC)

Palm Multi-Connector

The Palm Multi-Connector (also Athena Connector) is a power, audio and data interface connector designed by Palm, Inc.

Use
The connector is used by: LifeDrive, Tungsten E2, Tungsten T5, Treo 650, Treo 680, Treo 700p, Treo 750, Treo 755p, Palm TX, Palm Centro.

Changes
Palm, Inc. has changed the connectors it uses over time:

 * some early models used model-specific connectors or Palm Serial.
 * some models connected via Palm Universal Connector (Older Standard for Palm Handhelds, circa 2001-2004)
 * some machines used a standard Mini USB (Some Low-Budget Handhelds)
 * some machines used a Multi-Connector (Newer standard for palmOne and Palm Handhelds)

The Connector can be used to charge the device, transfer data to a computer, HotSync, and play audio. It is the new standard to replace the previous Palm Universal Connector, which performed similar functions but did not have an audio output capability.

This port has also been used to connect to an external microphone or to GPS units

Specification
The connector is divided in two sections: the longer one has thirteen pins numbered from right to left (5 to 17); the shorter one has three pins, on the left (3), top (2) and right (1). The cable shield connectors (4,18) are located on each side of the thirteen pins.

Pins 10 and 11 have TTL levels and cannot be directly connected to the RS-232 port.

Opinion
The Multi-Connector has received criticism from users who were familiar with previous connectors such as the Universal Connector. Users have been frustrated with the requirement to replace their Universal Connector cables, cradles, keyboards, sleds, and attachments as they have become incompatible. Another criticism is that the connector is fiddly, harder to remove and feels fragile.

All that is needed to charge the Treo is to connect +5 V to VDOCK and 0 V (negative) to VDOCK_RTN.

Schempp-Hirth Standard Cirrus

The Standard Cirrus is a Standard-class glider built in Germany by Schempp-Hirth. The Standard Cirrus was produced between 1969 and 1985, when it was replaced by the Discus. Over 800 examples were built, making it one of the most successful early fibreglass glider designs.

Development
The Standard Cirrus was designed by Dipl. Ing. Klaus Holighaus and flew for the first time in February 1969. It is a Standard Class glider with a 15-metre span, and laminar-flow airfoil section designed by Professor Franz Wortmann. The all-moving tailplane, a feature of many designs of that period due to its theoretically higher efficiency, caused less than desirable high-speed stability characteristics, and so modifications were made to the early design. The aircraft built before 1972 have a washout of -0.75 degrees. The washout was then increased to -1.5 degrees which improved low-speed performance and response at slow speed.

Improvements were made with the Standard Cirrus 75. These included better air-brakes with an increased frontal area and a safer tailplane attachment system. By April 1977, when production by Schempp-Hirth ended, a total of 700 Standard Cirruses had been built, including 200 built under licence by Grob between 1972 and July 1975. A French firm, Lanaverre Industrie, had also built 38 Standard Cirruses under licence by 1979. VTC of Yugoslavia also licence-built Standard Cirruses, reaching approximately 100 by 1985.

Variants
The Baby Cirrus is similar to a Standard Cirrus 75. The only thing different about them is the fact it had its wing on top of the fuselage mounted on a fiberglass beam of some sort. Only one was made. It was primarily used to try and improve the design of the Standard Cirrus. The original registration was D-3111. It was later converted to a Standard Cirrus 75 and was given a new registration. It is still flying to the day of this edit and is owned by a club in Germany.
 * Baby Cirrus

The Cirrus B is based on the Standard Cirrus 75 but with interchangeable wingtips giving a span of either 15m or 16m.
 * Cirrus B

The two Cirrus K have a reduced span (12.6m), larger ailerons, a cross tail with larger elevator, and a strengthened fuselage which make them suitable for aerobatics. This modification was initiated by Wilhelm Düerkop in the late 1980s. Wolfgang Seitz took part in the 1995 World Glider Aerobatic Championships with a Cirrus K.
 * Cirrus K

The last Cirrus model was the G/81 built by VTC until 1985. This incorporated a longer fuselage and canopy, and a conventional tailplane and elevator with the wings of the Cirrus 75.

I removed the following text from the article, as although I believe it, I can't find a reference to support it:
 * It takes almost a year for water to reach Lake Eyre from the headwaters.

Murrray-darling inland?
The article says "At 1300 km in length it is the second longest inland river system in Australia after the Murray-Darling system." Can this be right? The Murray makes it to the sea, at least some of the time. Maproom (talk) 22:42, 4 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Your right it doesn't sound correct. I will double check the source as soon as I can. - Shiftchange (talk) 23:27, 4 January 2010 (UTC)
 * I finally got my hands on the book to check the quote. On page 93 in relation to Charles Sturt reaching the point where the Strzelecki Creek diverges from Cooper Creek it is written that "Without knowing it he had reached Australia's second-largest inland river system after the Murray." I think the key term is "inland river system" but atm I am not sure exactly what that means. - Shiftchange (talk) 01:50, 25 April 2010 (UTC)

Darnell McDonald

Darnell Tyrone McDonald (born November 17, 1978) is an American former professional baseball outfielder. He played in Major League Baseball (MLB) between 2004 and 2013 for the Baltimore Orioles, Minnesota Twins, Cincinnati Reds, Boston Red Sox, New York Yankees, and Chicago Cubs.

Baltimore Orioles
In 1997, McDonald was drafted by the Baltimore Orioles 26th overall in the first round in the 1997 MLB draft. He began his professional career with Single-A Frederick, but after four games and two stolen bases there, he moved to Single-A Delmarva. In 134 games with Delmarva, he stole 35 bases and hit .261. His 35 stolen bases were a professional career high for him. He stayed with Single-A Frederick for the entire 1999 season, and in 130 games, he stole 26 bases and hit .266. He earned a promotion to Double-A Bowie in 2000, with whom he hit .242 in 116 games, and stealing 11 bases.

In 2001, McDonald played in Double-A Bowie and Triple-A Rochester, where he hit .238 and stole 13 bases in 104 games. He began the 2002 season with Bowie again and hit .292 and stole 9 bases in 37 games. He was again promoted to AAA Rochester, where he hit .289. In 2007, he was traded to the Minnesota Twins and re-united with the Red Wings.

He spent his entire 2003 season with the Ottawa Lynx, who were the Orioles Triple-A team. He played 40 games that year, and hit .296. McDonald's 2004 season was subpar, he hit only .234 with Ottawa. It led to a promotion to the Baltimore Orioles, and while with them, McDonald hit .156 in 32 at bats (17 games).

Cleveland Indians
On January 26, 2005, McDonald was signed by the Cleveland Indians to a minor league contract. He played 26 games with the Triple-A Buffalo Bisons, and then went over to the Devil Rays Triple-A team, the Durham Bulls.

On May 6, 2005, McDonald was suspended for violating the Minor League Drug Prevention and Treatment Program.

Minnesota Twins
On June 24, 2007, McDonald was sent to the Minnesota Twins by the Washington Nationals in order for the Nationals to keep Rule 5 draft pick Levale Speigner. Speigner was then outrighted to Triple A Columbus by the Nationals.

On July 20, 2007, McDonald was called up to the Twins when Michael Cuddyer was placed on the disabled list. He became a free agent at the end of the 2008 season and signed with the Cincinnati Reds in December.

Cincinnati Reds
On April 6, 2009, he made the opening day roster for the Cincinnati Reds. On August 30, 2009, he hit his first Major League home run against the Dodgers pitcher Clayton Kershaw.

Boston Red Sox
In 2010, he joined the Boston Red Sox organization. In April, McDonald's contract was purchased by the MLB club from Triple-A Pawtucket after Jacoby Ellsbury went on the disabled list. On April 20, 2010, McDonald pinch hit in the bottom of the 8th inning with the Red Sox against the Texas Rangers, and hit a game tying home run. He became the 9th player to hit a home run for the Red Sox in his first Red Sox at bat. He was only the third person ever to pinch hit for the Red Sox and have his first hit be a home run. His home run over the Green Monster tied the game at 6–6 in the eighth, and in the bottom of the ninth, he added a game-winning hit off the Green Monster to lead the Red Sox to a walk-off win against the Rangers, 7–6. He also became the first ever member of the Red Sox to collect a game-ending RBI in his debut with the club, according to the Elias Sports Bureau. He also threw out a runner and hit his second home run as a Red Sox in only his second game.

Prior to joining Boston, McDonald had two home runs in 147 MLB at-bats. He hit 9 homers in his first season with the Red Sox. McDonald made the opening day roster for the Red Sox in 2011, and served as utility outfielder.

On May 6, 2012, McDonald came in to pitch the top of the 17th inning against the Baltimore Orioles. He walked two, gave up a double and allowed a three-run home run by Adam Jones before retiring Chris Davis, the Orioles' starting designated hitter, who was the winning pitcher of record that evening. McDonald committed a double play before becoming the losing pitcher when Boston lost 6–9 in 17 innings. McDonald had made only one previous relief appearance in his career, during the 2011 season, in which he posted a no decision.

On June 30, 2012, McDonald was designated for assignment to make room for the returning Josh Beckett.

New York Yankees
On July 4, 2012, McDonald was claimed off waivers by the New York Yankees. McDonald made his Yankee debut on July 7, 2012, against his former club, the Boston Red Sox.

In accordance with the Yankees' appearance policies, he cut off his trademark dreadlocks and offered to donate them to charity. He was demoted to the Scranton Wilkes-Barre Yankees on July 17, and elected free agency on October 6, 2012.

Chicago Cubs
On January 10, 2013, McDonald signed a minor league contract with the Chicago Cubs. On August 11, the Cubs selected McDonald's contract, adding him to their major league roster. In 25 games for Chicago, he hit .302/.351/.434 with one home run and five RBI. On October 9, McDonald was removed from the 40–man roster and sent outright to the Triple–A Iowa Cubs.

McDonald announced his retirement from professional baseball on his Instagram page on April 6, 2014. A few days later it was announced that he was hired by the Cubs as a baseball operations assistant.

Post-playing career
McDonald was named as a coach for the AZL Cubs of the Chicago Cubs organization for the 2019 season. In 2023, he joined NESN as an in-studio commentator for Boston Red Sox broadcasts. He was not brought back for the 2024 season.

Patriotic Dophin Hunger Strikes

Persistent Silly Stories
the Hurricane Katrina story — again — because it's already covered in more detail under U.S. Navy Marine Mammal Program, which is where it belongs. I don't know why people get so excited about this obviously bogus story and keep trying to jam it in everywhere — there are serious questions about the reliability of the only source for the story, Leo Sheridan (see the Museum of Hoaxes). People should check sensational nonsense like this out in Snopes before posting it to Wikipedia. — Johantheghost 14:12, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Well, I included it on the basis of an article in the UK Independent newspaper. You are probably right that it's nonsense - but I'd prefer the article to cover it. The Land 14:15, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

 * My point was that it is covered in the U.S. Navy Marine Mammal Program article, which I think is the right place for it, since that's what it's referring to. Also, the fact that the indie and many other papers, TV stations, etc. have covered this doesn't give it any additional credence, because they're all just quoting the Observer article, which in turn comes from Leo Sheridan. Wide coverage doesn't give a story weight if all the coverage can be traced back to a single source who doesn't provide a shred of evidence for his clearly wacky claims. I think it says more about those newspapers than it does about the story. — Johantheghost 14:30, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Just was to add that I agree with Johan's view. We can report these stories as the fact that they got published at all is interesting, but that doesn't stop them being wacky and evidence-free. Pcb21| Pete 19:23, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

Where is the authority for the existence of a "kamikaze" dolphin training program? The Navy site contradicts that assertion at http://www.spawar.navy.mil/sandiego/technology/mammals/NMMP_FAQ.html.

Contradiction
The section titled "The military dolphin" contradicts the upper section of the article. In the lower section, it says that some dolphins were swept away during hurricane katrina, while in the upper it says that the story about escaped dolphins is a hoax. There also seem to be no references in the lower section. This is a contradiction or at least a very unfortunate choice of terms (either quoting something in a non-obvious way, or a really bad choice of words, such as dolphins escaping meaning exactly escaping by their own means and never being recaptured, instead of just getting away). 190.30.120.36 (talk) 22:39, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

Fake photo?
The photograph currently on the front page does not appear to be real. First off, the 'pinger' supposed strapped to the dolphin does not appear to be a real object, but a cartoon or pixel artwork of some sort. Second, the way it is strapped to the dolphin's fin is infeasible; it could not stay on this way. Third, the angle and distance of the dolphin in the background does not match the soldier in the foreground. Finally, the uniform the soldier (not sailor) is wearing is not Navy gear. 134.154.220.154 (talk) —Preceding comment was added at 15:50, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

 * yep, it's either fake or that soldier is a tiny tiny person who happens to be looking at a spot several metres behind the dolphin. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.165.98.105 (talk) 13:19, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

 * It seems apparent to me that the photo exhibits the "shortening" effect of long focal-length lenses, so the assertion that the relative sizes or angle of the seaman's (not soldier -- this is Navy) head are off is erroneous. As to whether the object could be mounted that way, it's pretty obvious that it could be when one looks at the profile of a dolphin's flipper. Shawn D. (talk) 00:35, 24 October 2008 (UTC)

Care for the dolphins is not neutral
The tone of the writing about the care of the dolphins sounds praising or advertising. "highly trained marine biologists". Vet staff "on call around the clock", well, any veterinary staff in a military is on call 24/7, not only for dolphins. I personally don't have a definite idea in how to rewrite this to remove the POV problem without removing potentially valuable information. Could somebody please have a try? I'm not too good in finding formulations, but I am still happy to give feedback. - Immernoch EkelAlfred (Spam me! (or send me serious messages, whatever you like)) 09:28, 2 March 2017 (UTC)

Case for renaming/rescoping
What do you think of the prospect of renaming and rescoping this article under the title "Military marine mammals"? The article currently touches upon the military use of seals and belugas (neither are dolphins), and it strikes me that a new title and some restructuring could greatly improve the article. --Danimations (talk) 23:44, 29 November 2019 (UTC)

I decided to dive in and restructure accordingly. Top level sections are now: 1) Dolphins, 2) Seals & sea lions and 3) Belugas. --Danimations (talk) 00:45, 30 November 2019 (UTC)

Trainability for combat
It well may be true that dolpins are difficult to train to use agression in a military relevant manner, for example to attack unauthorized envaders while staying safe to the authorized personnel. But the source, cited to support the claim doesn't say that. It says: "The navy has denied this claim, saying that it’s impossible to train dolphins to be combative." This is, of course, sheer nonsense. Dolphins don't need to be taught to be combative. They are borne combative. Their natural life is incessant fierce combat.

Jean Vauquelin de la Fresnaye

Jean Vauquelin de la Fresnaye (or de La Fresnaye) (1536–1606/8) was a French poet born at the château of La Fresnaye-au-Sauvage or Caen in Normandy in 1536.

He studied the humanities at Paris and law at Poitiers and Bourges. He fought in the Wars of Religion under the maréchal de Matignon and was wounded at the siege of Saint-Lô (1574). Most of his life was spent at Caen, where he was president, and he died there in 1608. He was the owner of the Chateau des Yveteaux in Les Yveteaux.

La Fresnaye was a disciple of Ronsard, but, while praising the reforms of the Pléiade he laid stress on the continuity of French literary history. He was a student of the trouvères and the old chroniclers, and desired to see French poetry set on a national basis. These views he expounded in an Art poetique, begun at the desire of Henry III in 1574, but not published until 1605.

His Forestries appeared in 1555; his Diverses poésies, including the Art poétique, the Satyres françoises, addressed to various distinguished contemporaries, and the Idylles, with some epigrams and sonnets, appeared in 1605. Among his political writings in the context of the civil wars may be noted Pour la monarchie du royaume contre la division (1569).

Daniel Henney

Daniel Philip Henney (born November 28, 1979) is an American actor. He first came into international prominence with his television debut as Dr. Henry Kim on the Korean drama My Lovely Sam Soon (2005).

He has gone on to star in films such as Seducing Mr. Perfect (2006), My Father (2007), X-Men Origins: Wolverine (2009), Shanghai Calling (2012), The Last Stand (2013), One Night Surprise (2013), and Big Hero 6 (2014). In television, he has starred in the Korean Spring Waltz and as well as US television series Hawaii Five-0 and Criminal Minds: Beyond Borders. He joined the regular cast of Criminal Minds for its 13th, 14th and 15th seasons. He stars as Lan Mandragoran in the 2021 television adaptation of The Wheel of Time.

Early life
Henney was born on November 28, 1979 in Carson City, Michigan. His mother Christine Henney, an American adoptee from Busan, South Korea, was a nurse. His father Philip Henney, an American of British descent, worked in a factory. He was a star basketball player at Carson City-Crystal High School and led the Eagles to the MHSAA Central region (CSAA) 2nd-place finish during his senior year in 1998.

Henney attended various colleges—including Albion College, Alma College and Elgin Community College—but never completed his college studies due to his burgeoning modeling career. He was credited on many online portals for a time to have had graduated with an economics degree from the University of Illinois at Chicago. However that was proven to be false when an academic scandal in 2007 revealed that several South Korean social figures and celebrities, including Henney, Choi Soo-jong and Jang Mi-hee, had falsified academic records.

Career
Henney moved to South Korea after having lived on and off in Hong Kong and Taiwan for four years. While in New York in 2004, he did some work Off-Broadway while auditioning for television shows.

Henney started modeling in the U.S. in 2001 and worked in France, Hong Kong, and many more while attending college. After his debut in South Korea with an advertisement for the Amore Pacific's cosmetic "Odyssey Sunrise", he became a spokesperson for commercials with Jun Ji-hyun for Olympus cameras and Kim Tae-hee for Daewoo Electronics's Klasse air conditioners. Henney is signed with DNA Models in New York under the celebrity division. While modeling in South Korea for Olympus in 2005, he was scouted by a talent manager who got Henney a role in the Korean drama My Lovely Sam Soon, aka My Name is Kim Sam Soon. Henney, who did not speak any Korean, was cast as an Asian American physician Henry Kim who struggled with the language. He played a supporting role in a love triangle between female lead Hee-jin (Jung Ryeo-won) and restaurateur Hyun Jin-heon (Hyun Bin). The show was widely popular, with over half of South Korean households estimated to have watched the finale.

Henney then starred in another romantic drama Spring Waltz as Philip, a foreign music manager, in 2006. He resumed his modeling career when he was featured in a Bean Pole campaign with Gwyneth Paltrow.

Henney made his feature film debut in another romantic comedy Seducing Mr. Perfect (2006), which coincided with pop star Rain's debut in I'm a Cyborg, But That's OK (2006). His second film, My Father, won multiple awards in South Korea and Henney became the first foreigner to sweep all the major cinema awards in the Best New Actor category.

He later learned the language and appeared on a few variety shows, such as Family Outing.

His first American role was as Agent Zero in the film X-Men Origins: Wolverine (2009).

In the fall season of 2009, he played "Dr. David Lee" in the CBS television drama Three Rivers.

In 2010, Henney returned to South Korea television for KBS2's The Fugitive: Plan B, alongside Rain and actress Lee Na-young.

Since 2012, Henney has appeared in several American TV series.

Henney starred as Special Agent Matt Simmons in the American television series Criminal Minds: Beyond Borders, a spin-off of Criminal Minds, for two seasons from 2016 to 2017. After the Beyond Borders 's cancellation, it was announced in June 2017 that Henney's Matt Simmons would continue on Criminal Minds as a series regular for season 13. He remained a part of the cast until the original series concluded in season 15.

In September 2019, Henney was cast in the supporting role of Lan Mandragoran in Amazon Video's adaptation of Robert Jordan's fantasy epic The Wheel of Time.

Personal life
On October 20, 2023, Henney married Ru Kumagai, a Japanese-American actress. The wedding ceremony was held in United States where only family members attended.

Botallack Mine

The Botallack Mine (Bostalek) is a former mine in Botallack in the west of Cornwall, UK. Since 2006 it has been part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site – Cornwall and West Devon Mining Landscape. The mine is within the Aire Point to Carrick Du Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) and the South West Coast Path passes along the cliff.

Location
The village of Botallack is on the B3306 road, in a former tin and copper mining area between the town of St Just in Penwith and the village of Pendeen.

History
Botallack was a submarine mine with tunnels extending under the sea, in places for half a mile. Over its recorded lifetime the mine produced around 14,500 tonnes of tin, 20,000 tonnes of copper, and 1,500 tonnes of arsenic. An estimated 1.5 million tonnes of waste would have been dug up with the minerals. It is unclear how far back mining activity goes in this location. Early records date from the 1500s. Some archaeological evidence points to mining here in the Roman era or even as far back as the Bronze Age.

Henry Boynes was captain of the mine in the early 18th-century and opened a ″deep adit level,″ which was driven to the Corpus Christi lode in the higher mine. The first steam-engine was put to work at Carnyorth Moor (later part of the Botallack sett) in either 1795 or about 1810, depending on the source. In the first half of the 19th-century, the average price of Botallack tin was £64 4s a ton. The abolition of tin duty of 4s per 120 lbs to the Duke of Cornwall in 1838 helped to keep the mine operating despite a decline in the price of tin to £45 per ton. In the 1860s a new diagonal shaft was dug. A visit by the Prince and Princess of Wales in 1865, when they descended the shaft, created a mini-boom in tourism, causing the mine operators to charge visitors a guinea per person.

An increasing supply of tin – initially from Malaysia, Banka Island, and Sumatra, and in the 1870s onwards from Australia – along with a fall in demand for tinplate in the American market, caused the price of tin to fall, causing many Cornish mines to close. The managers decided in January 1883 to stop the Botallack and Crowns engines, because the number of men employed below ground was not sufficient to meet the costs of keeping the engines going. On 2 October 1883 the recently renewed setts, which extended over 2 mile – comprising Wheal Cock, the Crowns, Carnyorth and Higher Mine – were put up for auction as a ″going concern.″ It included four pumping and three winding engines, two steam stamps, plus other appliances. At the auction it was stated that the mine ″... only needs from £20,000 to £25,000 to be put in good working order, ...″ There were no bids for the mine.

The following shafts were working in 1884,
 * Botallack engine-shaft, 220 fathom deep and worked with a 30 inch cylinder
 * Crowns engine-shaft, 130 fathom deep and worked with a 36 inch cylinder
 * Wheal Cock engine-shaft, 160 fathom deep and worked with a 30 inch cylinder
 * Carnyorth engine-shaft, 130 fathom deep and worked with a 30 inch cylinder
 * Wheal Cock skip-shaft, 170 fathom deep
 * Botallack skip-shaft, 205 fathom deep
 * Carnyorth skip-shaft, 124 fathom deep
 * Wheal Hazzard skip-shaft, 100 fathom deep
 * Chy Cornish skip-shaft, 100 fathom deep
 * Pearce's skip-shaft, 130 fathom deep
 * Bullion skip-shaft, 185 fathom deep
 * Durloe skip-shaft, 70 fathom deep
 * Rodd's skip-shaft, 60 fathom deep
 * Boscawen diagonal-shaft, about 500 fathom long, perpendicular depth 240 fathom and 300 fathom under the sea
 * Approximately 10 other shafts varying in depth from a few fathoms to 50 fathom deep.

Other engines,
 * Botallack stamping-engine, 30 inch cylinder
 * Carnyorth stamping-engine, 24 inch cylinder
 * Carn whim, 27 inch cylinder
 * Davy's whim (Botallack), 26.5 inch cylinder
 * Carnyorth, 22 inch cylinder
 * saw-mill, 14 inch cylinder
 * air-compressor, 14 inch cylinder.

A total of 265 workers were employed and the monthly wage was approximately £800 per month.

The average monthly yield of the mine was about 19 tons of tin, 3 tons of copper and 4 tons of arsenic.

The mine closed in 1895 as a result of falling tin and copper prices.

The mining developments around Botallack form part of the St Just mining district's successful inclusion in the Cornwall and West Devon Mining Landscape World Heritage Site, which was inscribed in July 2006.

Description
The engine houses in the Crowns section of Botallack Mine are set low down the cliffs north of Botallack. There are two engine houses and the remains of another pair on the cliff slopes above; the mine extends for about 400 metres out under the Atlantic ocean; the deepest shaft is 250 fathoms (about 500 metres) below sea level. The workings of Botallack Mine extend inland as far as the St Just to St Ives road, and at times included Wheal Cock further to the north-east.

The mine buildings on Botallack Cliffs are protected by the National Trust. There are two arsenic works opposite the Botallack Mine count house. At the top of the cliffs there is also the remains of one of the mine's arsenic-refining works.

The mineral Botallackite has its type locality here.

Popular culture
The mine is the setting for R.M. Ballantyne's Deep Down.

The 1970s BBC television series Poldark was filmed partly in Botallack, using Manor Farm as Nampara. More recently, filming for the new Poldark series also took place here.
