My RFA
If that were the case, I would consider Who's RFA to be better, but I have 76/1/1. :).  →Jo urna list   >>talk<<  00:10, 1 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Ah. When I looked at your note at essjay's page, you were 73. R  e  dwolf24  (talk) 00:11, 1 October 2005 (UTC)

I anticipate Acetic Acid's RFA. I predict he will make it the top 5 (or higher) :) →Jo urna list   >>talk<<  00:18, 1 October 2005 (UTC)

 * He's a great guy, but not 100% sure about that, people like Erwin Walsh seem to hate him.

 * by the way, I think just for interest's sake I'll run an RfB on October 10th, my halfbirthday for wiki (april20th is my first edit). I know I won't pass but I wanna see how I do. And I'll try to combat this whole 'been here for a year' thing... R  e  dwolf24  (talk) 00:21, 1 October 2005 (UTC)

Well, you probably would win, no kidding. You are well respected, and you also hold many high posts. I think you could pull it off. →Jo urna list  >>talk<<  00:44, 1 October 2005 (UTC)

Re: ESP News
Matt, Esperanza has soundly rejected my ideas, in other words they don't want to go in the direction I would lead them. Your concern is appreciated, but please remember that we are talking about an organization that rejected my orginal idea and subequently my proposed compromise. Leaders are chosen for their ideas; my ideas have been rejected, not once by Esperanza, but twice and in so doing rejected me as its leader. Its is simply not pratical, and possibly even unethical for me to take the lead of an organization that has twice sidelined my agenda. Besides Esperanza needs a leader that is upbeat and optimisic about its prospects, I'm still recovering from seeing a tolerant community crush a cherished idea; and while that is already forgiven, it will never be forgotten and subsequently be sometime before I trust the community as a whole again. If you are overburdened, might I suggest you try you entice Essjay, I believe he would meet the qualifications for the job perfectly. Thanks. -JCarriker 03:30, 1 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Do you think Washington or Lincoln always had the country agree with them? I'm sure there were times when they feared the country was gonna crash altogether.

 * If I were Admin Gen, the first thing I would do would be make the ESP main page more navigable. The second would be to reinstate the provisional government. Do you really think that would be accepted? I don't. -JCarriker 03:51, 1 October 2005 (UTC)
 * ...err I guess you have a point :-/ R  e  dwolf24  (talk) 03:54, 1 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Actually I have two, point you got the second one but not the first. Please remove the subpages from the main page, the idea of a subpage is to not clog up the main page, so having most of the subpages displayed on the main page is kind of a self-defeating purpose. -JCarriker 04:09, 1 October 2005 (UTC)

LOL, I copyedited Mirmo! a while back. That thing has SOOO many links - there has to be something like 50 there. If you think that's bad I already removed like 30 more, as there were links pointing to like every manga and colorbook available for it. The funny part is that I put sectcleanup on there with a usual WP:NOT a link farm statement, only to see the anon remove that and ONE link. LOL. Ryan Norton T 07:22, 1 October 2005 (UTC)

Deleted user page restoration
Can you do me a favor and restore my user page and talk page? I requested they be deleted becasue I had grown entirely frustrated with the fancruft polluting the project (and thus undermining the well-intentioned contributions of others). But I've decided to just, against my better judgement, ignore it and keep working with the editors who want to help improve the Wikipedia. My talk page can be restored ot whatever the last edit was, but could you restore the user page to the edit from 12:55, 24 September 2005 (which I still need to edit again anyways)? Thanks. --FuriousFreddy 23:42, 1 October 2005 (UTC)

How was your birthday?
Hope you had a happy birthday during the last two days ago. So you are 15 years old, that young? I have said happy birthday to you on your birthday on your talk page, in-case you didn't see it because I know there are a lot of people sending you complaints and other sorts of things. -- Mike Garcia | talk 00:28, 2 October 2005 (UTC)

 * I saw it, and I appreciate it. Sorry I didn't reply, but there was about 40 happy birthday comments :P R  e  dwolf24  (talk) 02:31, 2 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Since, I've yet to see you confirm the 15 year old thing, I'm inclined to believe its just a mistake inspired by someone counting the candles on a stock cake borrowed from birthday. So how about it, are you really that young?  You know, I bet you aren't even red OR a wolf either.  I do hope you enjoyed your birthday though.  Dragons flight 05:21, 2 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Yup, 15. And it was a great birthday. :) R  e  dwolf24  (talk) 06:17, 2 October 2005 (UTC)

Hi RedWolf, i just want to say sorry for those picture copyright violations, i'm still getting used to having to state copyright details for pictures. And i'm sorry I simply posted copied text. I'll make sure that what i add fits with the rules from now on. Sorry for any inconvience or anything it may have caused.

WP protection or My sentence?
I posted this earlier, but it was most likely lost in the barrage of birthday wishes that immediately followed. Here it is again. I realize I can't do anything to prevent it, but I hope we can have this conversation without Taxman involvement. For whatever reason, he and I don't communicate well.

As you are now my "mentor," would you explain to me the reasoning for my "privilege" to link to my online articles being revoked? I haven't seen much in the way of explanation, just promised to ban me if I don't obey. Why would such links from my user page be bad for WP? Or, is the privilege removal meant more as negative reinforcement for me, rather than an attempt to protect WP? If that is the case, what are the terms of my sentence? Uriah923 18:51, 2 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Links to articles you've written is fine, but did any of them involve the phrase ON in any incarnation? If so, then that's your problem. R  e  dwolf24  (talk) 18:53, 2 October 2005 (UTC)

I need a second opinion.
Are these articles (Category:Glitter characters) neccessary? i've had serious problems with these users and Mariah Carey fancruft. Being that Glitter is only a minor film, do its characters warrant articles of their own, or should they be merged someplace? --FuriousFreddy 22:31, 2 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Bleh, that IS crufty. We definitely have too much Ashlee Simpson and Mariah Carrey cruft. Way too much. However, the category isn't hurting anyone. If you want to merge the characters to the main movie, feel free (but only if each character's page is short) after being merged the category could be deleted.

The Lost Episodes

The Lost Episodes is a 1996 posthumous album by Frank Zappa which compiles (with the exception of "I Don't Want to Get Drafted" and "Any Way the Wind Blows") previously unreleased material. Much of the material covered dates from early in his career, and as early as 1958, into the mid-1970s. Zappa had been working on these tracks in the years before his death in 1993.

Album content
The album is also notable for its five tracks which feature Captain Beefheart (known in early recordings by his birth name, Don Vliet, and later Don Van Vliet): "Lost in a Whirlpool", a blues parody from around 1958–59 in which Beefheart sings of being flushed down the toilet; "Tiger Roach", a rhythm and blues track from around three years later; "I'm a Band Leader" from 1969, a spoken word piece written by Zappa and read by Beefheart; "Alley Cat", a blues number in which Zappa plays guitar with two members of Beefheart's Magic Band, and "The Grand Wazoo", a spoken word piece recorded in 1969, to which Zappa added a Synclavier track in 1992. Dan Glaister, writing in The Guardian, judged the first to be "a passable Bessie Smith cover", adding, "while "Alley Cat" could be a missing track from Clear Spot."

Elsewhere on the disc are included a number of alternate, earlier versions of compositions which were later released on Zappa's studio albums. The Lost Episodes' version of "Any Way the Wind Blows", for instance, was recorded in Cucamonga in around 1963—three years before its appearance on Freak Out! (1966). And the version of "Fountain of Love" here was recorded around the same time, but not released until Cruising with Ruben & the Jets (1968). Several outtakes include the original versions of: "Inca Roads" and "RDNZL", along with a version of Wino Man featuring Ricky Lancelotti on lead vocals. The final track is the original version of Sharleena from the aborted 2nd Hot Rats LP recordings in 1970; featuring Sugarcane Harris on lead vocal.

"The Big Squeeze" was recorded in 1967 for a Luden's cough drops television commercial. Zappa's music was matched with animation by filmmaker Ed Seeman and the advertisement won a Clio Award for "Best Use of Sound". The edit on this album lacks narration added by Seeman.

Some of the tracks had been previously released on the Mystery Disc, which was originally part of The Old Masters box set and was released on CD in 1998. "Run Home Slow" is heard in stereo on The Lost Episodes but in mono on Mystery Disc (and probably a different take). "Charva" is heard in mono on The Lost Episodes but in stereo on Mystery Disc. "Wedding Dress Song" and Handsome Cabin Boy" are the same versions as on Mystery Disc but on the latter album the two songs feature as one track.

Track listing

Gills Rock, Wisconsin

Gills Rock is an unincorporated community located on Highway 42 at the northern tip of the Door Peninsula in Door County, Wisconsin, United States. It is within the town of Liberty Grove and was formerly known as Hedgehog Harbor.

History
This area is known to the Potawatomi as Wah-ya-qua-kah-me-kong, for "head of the land" or "land's end". Today the area is named for Elias Gill, a local 19th century landowner.

Gills Rock has a strong history and tradition of commercial fishing, which continues to this day. Death's Door Maritime Museum is located there. The area is also popular with scuba divers who explore the many shipwrecks in and around Death's Door, the narrow strait connecting Lake Michigan to Green Bay, also known as Porte des Morts. The Pilot Island Light is located on Pilot Island near Gills Rock.

Gills Rock is also the departure point of a passenger ferry to Washington Island. The vehicle ferry to Washington Island departs 2.25 miles (3.5 km) to the East, in Northport, Wisconsin

Lucius Fairchild

Lucius Fairchild (December 27, 1831 – May 23, 1896) was an American politician, soldier, and diplomat. He served as the tenth Governor of Wisconsin and represented the United States as Minister to Spain under presidents Rutherford B. Hayes and James A. Garfield. He served as a Union Army colonel during the American Civil War and lost an arm at Gettysburg.

Military career
In 1858, with the American Civil War looming, Fairchild volunteered as a private with the Wisconsin militia company known as the "Governor's Guard". At the outbreak of the war in 1861, the Governor's Guard was accepted into federal service as Company K of the 1st Wisconsin Infantry Regiment. With the 1st Wisconsin Infantry, he served at the Battle of Hoke's Run against the "Stonewall Brigade" of General Thomas J. Jackson.

In August 1861, the enlistments of the 1st Wisconsin Infantry expired and Fairchild was appointed captain in the 16th U.S. Infantry as well as major of the 2nd Wisconsin Volunteer Infantry Regiment. The 2nd Wisconsin served in the brigade commanded by General William T. Sherman until the general reorganization of the Union army following the First Battle of Bull Run. Electing to stay with the 2nd Wisconsin Infantry, Fairchild was soon commissioned lieutenant colonel and, with his regiment now a part of the famed Iron Brigade within the Army of the Potomac, participated in the Second Battle of Bull Run. One week thereafter, on September 8, 1862, he was promoted to the rank of colonel of the 2nd Wisconsin Infantry. On February 27, 1863, the Iron Brigade, now under the command of Brig. Gen. Solomon Meredith, was re-designated the "1st Brigade, 1st Division, I Corps", which gave Fairchild the distinction of being the ranking officer among all commissioned officers within the I Corps of the Army of the Potomac during the Spring and Summer of 1863.

Fairchild and the 2nd Wisconsin Infantry distinguished themselves at the Battle of Antietam, and then again at Seminary Ridge during the first day of fighting at the Battle of Gettysburg on July 1, 1863, being the first infantry regiment to make close contact with the Confederate Army. During the engagement, at approximately 10:00, the 2nd Wisconsin Infantry delivered a striking blow by capturing very first Confederate general officer of the war, Brig. Gen. James J. Archer. Almost immediately after this success, the regiment was ambushed by an attack on their right flank, losing seventy-seven percent of their ranks, including most officers. Fairchild was shot in the upper arm, captured, tended to, and released. While recovering from his amputated left arm, Fairchild was commissioned as a brigadier general by President Abraham Lincoln on October 19, 1863, but the appointment was not confirmed by the Senate.

Political and diplomatic career

Fairchild resigned from the military in November 1863 and was appointed Secretary of State of Wisconsin (1864–1866), before being elected three term Governor of Wisconsin (1866–1872). After his time as governor, Fairchild was appointed U.S. consul at Liverpool (1871) and then consul general at Paris (1880–1881), Fairchild was Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary to Spain.

Fairchild later served as Commander-in-Chief of the Grand Army of the Republic (1886–1887) and of the Military Order of the Loyal Legion of the United States (1893–1895); during the former of these terms, he came to national prominence for calling upon God to "palsy" President Grover Cleveland for offering to return several captured Confederate battle flags to the veterans of their respective regiments as a peace gesture towards the South. He was also a member of the Society of the Army of the Potomac. Fairchild also received 95 degrees in the Masonic Order "Egyptian Masonic Rite of Memphis". He died in Madison, Wisconsin in May 1896, and was buried at Forest Hill Cemetery.

Fairchild was also known as an outspoken "Radical Republican", he fervently supported civil rights for blacks and vehemently opposed Rutherford B. Hayes for "appeasing" southern segregationists in what he referred to as "the second civil war". He believed Reconstruction ended too early, and on terms he described as "cowardly" and "disgraceful". He supported Wisconsin Senator Timothy O. Howe in pushing for more severe measures in the South that would guarantee civil rights by force.

Family

Lucius Fairchild was of entirely English ancestry. His family tree can be traced through three large migrations. Firstly all of his ancestors migrated from England to New England during the Puritan migration to New England during the early colonial period, between 1620 and 1640. In the immediate aftermath of the American Revolution all of Fairchild's ancestors moved from New England to the region of upstate New York, and only one generation after that, following the Northwest Indian War they moved to the northern part of Ohio. Fairchild had a grandfather and a great-grandfather who fought in the American Revolution.

Fairchild is a descendant of Thomas Fairchild who emigrated to North America in 1639. His parents were Sally (Blair) and Jairus C. Fairchild, who was the first State Treasurer of Wisconsin and the first Mayor of the city of Madison, Wisconsin. His brother, Cassius Fairchild, served as Democratic Party Leader in the Wisconsin State Assembly, and also served in the Union Army during the American Civil War with the rank of colonel (and brevet brigadier general). His brother Charles served in the Union Navy during the war. His wife was Frances Bull Fairchild, and together they had three daughters: Mary, Sarah, and Caryl.

Legacy
The town of Fairchild, Wisconsin and the 422 ft Liberty ship SS Lucius Fairchild, built in 1943 in Portland, Oregon for the United States War Shipping Administration, were named in his honor, as was Mount Fairchild (13,502'), a prominent peak located in Rocky Mountain National Park, Colorado. In Kent, Ohio, where Fairchild was born in 1831, Fairchild Avenue is named after him. Fairchild visited Kent with much fanfare in 1887 and the road was officially named for him in 1904. A John Singer Sargent portrait of General Fairchild is housed at the Wisconsin Historical Museum located in Madison, Wisconsin.

1891 Australian shearers' strike

The 1891 shearers' strike is one of Australia's earliest and most important industrial disputes.

The dispute was primarily between unionised and non-unionised wool workers. It resulted in the formation of large camps of striking workers, and minor instances of sabotage and violence on both sides. The strike was poorly timed, and when the union workers ran out of food, they were forced to come to terms. The outcome is credited as being one of the factors for the formation of the Australian Labor Party and the rise to power of a pro-Labor Party faction in the Australian Socialist League.

Background
In 1891, wool production was one of the Australian continent's largest industries, however, working conditions for sheep shearers during the 19th century in Australia were consistently poor. With the growth of the wool industry, more workers became shearers and employees of the sheds and as their number and influence rose, many joined unions to campaign for better conditions.

By 1890, the Amalgamated Shearers' Union of Australasia boasted tens of thousands of members, and had unionised thousands of sheds. At their annual conference in Bourke in 1890, the Union laid down a new rule, which prohibited members from working with non-union workers. Soon after, shearers at Jondaryan Station on the Darling Downs went on strike over this issue. As non-union labour was still able to process the wool, the Jondaryan shearers called for help. The Rockhampton wharfies responded and refused to touch the Jondaryan wool. The unionists won the battle. This galvanised the squatters, and they formed the Pastoralists' Federal Council, to counter the strength of the unions. The Australian Socialist League also involved itself directly with the shearers as the strike loomed (which would lead to its involvement in the foundation of the Australian Labor Party).

The strike
Many union shearers were outraged when Logan Downs Station Manager Charles Fairbain asked the shearers to sign a contract that would reduce the power of their union. On 5 January 1891 the shearers announced a strike until the following demands for a contract were met:

 * Continuation of existing rates of pay
 * Protection of workers' rights and privileges
 * Just and equitable agreements
 * Exclusion of low-cost Chinese labour, which manifested itself later as Labor Party policy - the Immigration Restriction Act, also known as the White Australia Policy - although anti-Chinese demands were opposed by the Australian Socialist League, which was heavily involved with the strike.

The strike started and quickly spread. From February until May, central Queensland was on the brink of civil war. Striking shearers formed armed camps outside of towns. Thousands of armed soldiers protected non-union labour and arrested strike leaders. The unionists retaliated by raiding shearing sheds, harassing non-union labour and committing acts of sabotage, although the incidents of actual violence or arson were few. One of the first May Day marches in the world took place during the strike on 1 May 1891 in Barcaldine. The Sydney Morning Herald reported that 1340 men took part of whom 618 were mounted on horse. Banners carried included those of the Australian Labor Federation, the Shearers' and Carriers' Unions, and one inscribed 'Young Australia'. The leaders wore blue sashes and the Eureka Flag was carried. The "Labor Bulletin" reported that cheers were given for "the Union", "the Eight-hour day", "the Strike Committee" and "the boys in gaol". It reported the march:

"In the procession every civilised country was represented doing duty for the Russian, Swede, French, Dane etc, who are germane to him in other climes, showing that Labor's cause is one the world over, foreshadowing the time when the swords shall be turned into ploughshares and Liberty, Peace and Friendship will knit together the nations of the earth."

But the shearers were unable to hold out. The summer had been unseasonably wet, and the strike was poorly timed for maximum effect on the shearing season (winter). By May the union camps were full of hungry penniless shearers. The strike had been broken. The squatters had won this time, but it had proved a costly exercise.

Thirteen union leaders were charged with sedition and conspiracy, taken to Rockhampton for the trial, convicted, and sentenced to three years in gaol on St Helena Island Prison. Three of those imprisoned (William Hamilton, Julian Stuart, and George Taylor) later became Labor members of parliament – Hamilton in Queensland and the other two in Western Australia.

The 1891 shearers' strike is credited as being one of the factors for the formation of the Australian Labor Party. On the 9 September 1892 the Manifesto of the Queensland Labour Party was read out under the well known Tree of Knowledge at Barcaldine following the Great Shearers' Strike. The State Library of Queensland now holds the manifesto.

In 2008 the historic document was added to UNESCO's Memory of the World Australian Register and in 2009, the document was added to UNESCO's Memory of the World International Register.

Literary references and allusions
Henry Lawson's well known poem, Freedom on the Wallaby, was written as a comment on the strike and published by William Lane in the Worker in Brisbane, 16 May 1891. And William Lane wrote his novel in 1892, The workingman's paradise, with two aims: to support fundraising efforts for the imprisoned unionists, and to explain unionism and socialism to those who would listen.

Banjo Paterson's song Waltzing Matilda, an unofficial Australian anthem, was also written about this era of shearers' industrial disputes in Queensland.

It was the subject of the play Hail Tomorrow and radio serial Two Worlds both by Vance Palmer. The strike was the background to the popular stage musical Reedy River.

Helen Palmer's song 'The Ballad of 1891', set to music by Doreen Jacobs, details the lead up to the strike and aftermath.

The 1975 film Sunday Too Far Away, directed by Ken Hannam has been partly inspired by the events surrounding this strike.

Playwright Errol O'Neill wrote On the Whipping Side – a play about the 1891 shearers' strike. This was first performed by the Queensland Theatre Company in 1991 and toured parts of Queensland.

Legacy
The site of the striking shearers' campsite in Barcaldine is listed on the Queensland Heritage Register.

There are a lot of inaccuracies in the article, not the least of which is the claim that Nitro and their image were "tongue in cheek". Nitro is the least tongue-in-cheek band of all time. Believe it or not, they are 100% serious about their band and music.

John McCabe (writer)

John McCabe (November 14, 1920 – September 27, 2005), born John Charles McCabe III, was an American Shakespearean scholar and author, whose first book was the authorized biography of the comedy team known as Laurel and Hardy. This joint biography, as well as his separate books on each man, has been reprinted.

Early life and education
John Charles McCabe III (always called Jack) was born in Detroit, Michigan. His father was an engineer; the son loved acting from an early age, and at seven started to perform professionally with the Jessie Bonstelle Stock Company in the city.

After attending the University of Detroit High School, he served in Europe, from 1943 to 1945, as a sergeant with the United States Army Air Forces. After returning to Detroit, he completed his undergraduate degree at the University of Detroit, graduating in 1947. The following year he was awarded a Master's from Fordham University, after which he began teaching at Wayne University (now Wayne State University) in Detroit. In the 1940s, he was active in the Catholic Theater of Detroit. He earned a Master's in Theatre from Fordham University in New York, and a doctorate from the Shakespeare Institute of the University of Birmingham in England.

Career
Early in his career Dr. McCabe taught acting at Detroit's Wayne State University, City College of New York, Interlochen Arts Academy, and New York University where, as professor of dramatic art, he headed the Educational Theatre Department for many years. He also had a strong interest in popular culture: movies, Broadway plays and musicals, and comedies. His Mr. Laurel and Mr. Hardy first published in 1961, is credited with helping to establish the critical reputation of the 20th-century comedy duo. He also wrote separate books about each man: The Comedy World of Stan Laurel (1974) and Babe: The Life of Oliver Hardy (1989). Having become a show-business biographer, McCabe also wrote George M. Cohan: The Man Who Owned Broadway (1973); Cagney by Cagney (the ghostwritten autobiography of James Cagney, 1976); Cagney (1997); Charlie Chaplin (1978 and 1992); Grand Hotel (1987 and 1993); and Laurel & Hardy [with Al Kilgore & Richard W. Bann] (1984). He also contributed to The Laurel and Hardy Encyclopedia by Glenn Mitchell (1995).

In 1964, Dr. McCabe established the international Laurel and Hardy society, The Sons of the Desert, named after one of the team's films. The founding members were McCabe, actors Orson Bean and Chuck McCann, cartoonist Al Kilgore, and John Municino. After the group had grown to dozens of chapters around the world, McCabe took the title "Exhausted Ruler" (a quotation from the Sons of the Desert film). He told a reporter that he modeled the group on The Baker Street Irregulars, a fan organization for Sherlock Holmes, of which he had been a member. McCabe was one of the chief contributors to the BBC's Omnibus arts strand tribute to the comedy duo, Cuckoo: A Celebration of Mr. Laurel and Mr. Hardy, in 1974. Appearing alongside Dick Van Dyke, Jerry Lewis, Spike Milligan, Hal Roach, Marvin Hatley and Marcel Marceau, McCabe spoke about the Sons of the Desert.

From 1967 to 1970, Dr. McCabe chaired the Department of Drama and Theatre Arts at Mackinac College on Mackinac Island. There he oversaw theater productions by students and staff, their many performances including The Glass Menagerie, John Brown's Body, The Importance of Being Earnest, The Old Lady Shows Her Medals, Everyman, Salad Days, and The Zoo Story. In 1968, John Brown's Body was entered in the Regionals of the American College Theater Festival. When Mackinac College closed in 1970, he taught Speech, Shakespeare, and Drama at Lake Superior State College (now Lake Superior State University) (Sault Ste. Marie)) for 16 years while maintaining his home on Mackinac Island. As a professor, McCabe pushed his students in writing and speech. He and two other professors established the Unicorn Hunters, and annually published a word to be banned from use on campus - one year it was "awesome".

Marriage and family
McCabe married four times, and was widowed three times. He met his first wife, Peggy Richards, while they were both involved in the Catholic Theater of Detroit in the 1940s. They continued with their interest in theatre and together they produced, directed and acted in numerous summer stock productions in Milford, Pennsylvania.

A widower, McCabe married his second wife, Vija Valda Zarina (May 30, 1929 – March 1, 1984), a Latvian-American ballet dancer/choreographer in 1958. "You can have kids," she told him, "or a clean house. But not both." They had three children. When McCabe worked at Mackinac College, Vija taught ballet. She died in 1984, aged 54.

In 1987, Dr. McCabe married Rosina Marchisio, an actress and singer of the 1930s who had played the teacher in the Our Gang films, and was featured in a Laurel & Hardy film, Way Out West. The McCabes divided their time between British Landing, Mackinac Island and New York. She died in 1997 of cancer, age 84.

On April 16, 1998, John McCabe married Karen Lee Jackson. They had known each other since the 1960s, when both worked for Mackinac College. Karen was age 65 when they married. They lived at British Landing on Mackinac Island and she shared his love of both the Island and involvement in theater. She cared for her elderly husband and was with him in Petoskey the night he died. Karen Lee Jackson McCabe died on February 22, 2015, in Petoskey, Michigan.

Death
McCabe died of congestive heart failure at Northern Michigan Hospital in Petoskey. He was survived by his fourth wife, Karen, and his children. He had lived the remainder of his years full-time on Mackinac Island, where he had gone for the summers for 27 years. He was given the title locally of "Shakespearean in Residence" and gave readings annually at the Grand Hotel.

Talk:Castlevania Legends

Actual Date of Castlevania Legends
Can anyone confirm or deny 1450 as a Konami-dictated date for this game? I'm fairly sure an official timeline showing it was published long before Igarashi decided to "improve" it, but a quick check of the game box, text, and manual reveals absolutely no date, so it is a possibility that this date worked its way into my own unofficial version of the timeline from an unauthoritative fan source, and was inadvertently transferred here as a canon detail. I'd appreciate it if anybody could find a source confirming or denying this.--QuasarTE 03:31, 3 October 2005 (UTC)

To Anonymous Editor
Your IP keeps changing so it is impossible to leave you any messages. Please register an account so we can talk about changes to the page. I had left a message for one of your previous IPs on the talk page, but it seems to be gone now. Happy wiki editing :) --QuasarTE 23:16, 28 October 2005 (UTC)

Here is my reply: "Reply by said anonymous user: That's fine. Sorry if any personal feelings came across in my changes (I also agree that the game's information is more important then the retcon). I appreciate your edit to the article, and you have my understanding. If you wish to restore the pictures I removed, considor it done. Though I don't know how to undo that as of now. And likewise, thanks for your help. :)"

To whoever says that this canon in the US
Legends is not canon in both countries. Stop writing this because you dislike the changes. Konami US have no consequence on the official timeline. Please keep your edits in these articles as facts, not opinions.

apollogies but I believe I'm correct in this
I've emailed Konami USA prior to making these changes, and Konami USA does not acknowledge alterations made to the timeline. In this case I'm merely relaying a fact from an official source. Removing my edit is in fact merely preventing factual information from being presented.

Wikipedia is not for expressing opinion no matter how adamant you may be in that opinion. Please do not alter articles only to support personal feelings.

 * Konamia US left the retconned games out. This is evident in the Xtreme Desktop timeline.

Timeline Changes
The refrences you edited out were actually to a Konami Timeline printed in an issue of Nintendo Power in the last year or so. I thought I was clear to point out that Konami of America at first did not acknowledge Japan's timeline in that timeline, but have recently conformed to to the Japanese timeline in their most recent extreme timeline.

It was merely for historical note to point out that there have been changes in Konami of America's views in the recent years.

When I find a copy of that timeline do you have a suggestion where I can post it in order to point out the history behind Konami USA's take on the series.

Please don't suggest I put my own views into it the post. Infact it was quite neutral, and just stating historical facts on the issue. Infact I actually was editing someone else's post on the matter that did not quote any sources for his viewpoint, and correcting him by pointing out the Xtreme Timeline.

May I suggest you get an account so that I can leave you messages? The fact that you post on anonymous IP makes it difficult to leave any messages to youDraculvania 05:09, 29 November 2005 (UTC)

Side Note/Interesting References
This game has a lot in common with the 1985 film, Vampire Hunter D. Alucard looks like D, fights with a sword, has supernatural powers, and also meets a whip-wielding blonde woman like D does. Also, in Castlevania: Curse of Darkness, there is a joke about a vampire hunter who comes after C.

Japanese title change
I noticed the Japanese language title has been changed from what it was to simply being an Engrish spelling of "Dark Night Prelude". Which is correct? Tuxedo Mark (talk) 02:09, 30 December 2009 (UTC)

Motion to move this back into the Main Series section.
Despite being either unofficially or officially removed from the timeline, Castlevania Legends exists just as much as any of the Konami Kobe games. Whether it's canon or not is irrelevant because it was initially created with the intention of it's being in the regular series. If this is a side-story, then Castlevania 64, Legacy of Darkness and Circle of the Moon are side-stories as well because there is no indication other than Koji Igarashi's various timelines that any of them should be any more separate than any other. If one timeline is the reference, then there are many inconsistencies from various sources about what games do or do not belong in the timeline. For instance some articles claim that all three Kobe games mentioned above were developed from the beginning to be side-stories... (Legacy of Darkness has the word Gaiden in it's very title in Japan) however this was not the case with Castlevania Legends. The very notion of it being a side-story apart from the other 3 games is open for debate because some of the series main characters (A Belmont, Alucard and Dracula) are in the game, and therefore it would have as much to do with the timeline as any other game in the franchise. All attempts made to clarify what games do and do not belong in the true lineage have been largely ignored by Konami to the point of Iga regretting ever having made the timeline to begin with. Keeping this game separate with no clarification as to why suggests a biased stance lacking in facts to support the position. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.20.183.238 (talk) 10:29, 8 February 2010 (UTC)
 * I fully agree. I think Iga is a fool to consider this game "an embarrassment" to the series. His own words in describing Sonia as an unacceptable character for the series sound misogynistic and biased. I know he says otherwise, but it is very curious how he removed many games he wasn't responsible for making from the timeline. If anything replacing Legends (which would've been the earliest entry) with Lament was a poor choice as its storyline only makes the canon timeline/storyline confusing and hard to understand.--Dakmordian (talk) 10:24, 13 July 2010 (UTC)

NILFS

NILFS or NILFS2 (New Implementation of a Log-structured File System) is a log-structured file system implementation for the Linux kernel. It was developed by Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corporation (NTT) CyberSpace Laboratories and a community from all over the world. NILFS was released under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL).

Design
"NILFS is a log-structured file system, in that the storage medium is treated like a circular buffer and new blocks are always written to the end.[…]Log-structured file systems are often used for flash media since they will naturally perform wear-leveling;[…]NILFS emphasizes snapshots. The log-structured approach is a specific form of copy-on-write behavior, so it naturally lends itself to the creation of file system snapshots. The NILFS developers talk about the creation of "continuous snapshots" which can be used to recover from user-initiated file system problems[…]."

Using a copy-on-write technique known as a log-structured file system, NILFS records all data in a continuous log-like format that is only appended to, never overwritten, an approach that is designed to reduce seek times, as well as minimize the kind of data loss that occurs after a crash with conventional file systems. For example, data loss occurs on ext3 file systems when the system crashes during a write operation. When the system reboots, the journal notes that the write did not complete, and any partial data writes are lost.

Some file systems, like UFS-derived file systems used by the Solaris operating system and BSDs, provide a snapshot feature that prevents such data loss, but the snapshot configuration can be lengthy on large file systems. NILFS, in contrast, can "continuously and automatically [save] instantaneous states of the file system without interrupting service", according to NTT Labs.

The "instantaneous states" that NILFS continuously saves can actually be mounted, read-only, at the same time that the actual file system is mounted read-write — a capability useful for data recovery after hardware failures and other system crashes. The "lscp" (list checkpoint) command of an interactive NILFS "inspect" utility is first used to find the checkpoint's address, in this case "2048":

... nilfs> listcp 1    6 Tue Jul 12 14:55:57 2005 MajorCP|LogiBegin|LogiEnd 2048 2352 Tue Jul 12 14:55:58 2005 MajorCP|LogiEnd ... nilfs> quit
 * 1) inspect /dev/sda2

The checkpoint address is then used to mount the checkpoint:

# df Filesystem          1K-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/sda2             70332412   8044540  62283776  12% /nilfs /dev/sda2            70332412   8044540  62283776  12% /nilfs-cp
 * 1) mount -t nilfs -r -o cp=2048 /dev/sda2 /nilfs-cp

Features
NILFS provides continuous snapshotting. In addition to versioning capability of the entire file system, users can even restore files mistakenly overwritten or deleted at any recent time. Since NILFS can keep consistency like conventional LFS, it achieves quick recovery after system crashes.

Continuous snapshotting is not provided by most file systems, including those supporting point-in-time snapshotting (e.g. Btrfs)

NILFS creates a number of checkpoints every few seconds or per synchronous write basis (unless there is no change). Users can select significant versions among continuously created checkpoints, and can change them into snapshots which will be preserved until they are changed back to checkpoints.

There is no limit on the number of snapshots until the volume gets full. Each snapshot is mountable as a read-only file system. It is mountable concurrently with a writable mount and other snapshots, and this feature is convenient to make consistent backups during use.

Possible uses of NILFS include versioning, tamper detection, SOX compliance logging, data loss recovery.

The current major version of NILFS is version 2, which is referred to as NILFS2. NILFS2 implements online garbage collection to reclaim disk space with keeping multiple snapshots.

Other NILFS features include:

 * B-tree based file and inode management.
 * Immediate recovery after system crash.
 * 64-bit data structures; support many files, large files and disks.
 * 64-bit on-disk timestamps which are free of the year 2038 problem.

Issues
As of 2023, NILFS lacks a dedicated consistency checking utility (fsck), and thus can't recover from severe errors that cause it to fail to find a valid checkpoint.

Supported features

 * Basic POSIX file system features
 * Snapshots
 * Automatically and continuously taken
 * No limit on the number of snapshots until the volume gets full
 * Mountable as read-only file systems
 * Mountable concurrently with the writable mount (convenient to make consistent backups during use)
 * Quick listing
 * Background Garbage Collection (GC)
 * Can maintain multiple snapshots
 * Selectable GC Policy, which is given by a userland daemon.
 * Quick crash recovery on-mount
 * Read-ahead for meta data files as well as data files
 * Block sizes smaller than page size (e.g. 1KB or 2KB)
 * Online resizing (since Linux-3.x and nilfs-utils 2.1)
 * Related utilities (by contribution of Jiro SEKIBA)
 * grub2
 * util-linux (blkid, libblkid, uuid mount)
 * udisks, palimpsest
 * File system label (nilfs-tune)

Additional features

 * Fast write and recovery times
 * Minimal damage to file data and system consistency on hardware failure
 * 32-bit checksums (CRC32) on data and metadata for integrity assurance (per block group, in segment summary)
 * Correctly ordered data and meta-data writes
 * Redundant superblock
 * Internal data is processed in 64-bit wide word size
 * Can create and store huge files (8 EiB)

Compatibility
NILFS is available in various GNU/Linux distributions like Arch Linux, Debian (since version 5.0), Fedora, Gentoo, Linux Mint, NixOS, Ubuntu (since version 9.10), etc. To use it, users typically need to install the nilfs-utils or nilfs-tools package. A boot-cd with NILFS is also available on PrRescue.

It is also supported by partition-editing application like GParted.

A separate, BSD licensed implementation, currently with read-only support, is included in NetBSD.

Relative performance
In the January 2015 presentation SD cards and file systems for embedded systems at Linux.conf.au, it was stated: If you've got a workload that's latency sensitive, you might want to use NILFS. If you've got one that's throughput sensitive, you might want to use F2FS. NILFS2 works much better for the lots of small files case than F2FS or EXT4.

License
The NILFS2 file system utilities are made available under the GNU General Public License version 2, with the exception of the lib/nilfs libraries and their header files, which are made available under the GNU Lesser General Public License Version 2.1.

Ellison Bay, Wisconsin

Ellison Bay is an unincorporated community and census-designated place in northern Door County, Wisconsin, United States, within the town of Liberty Grove and is located on Highway 42 along the Green Bay. As of the 2020 census, its population is 249. Sur La Baie, one of Wisconsin's largest and most expensive homes, is located nearby.

History
A Native American name for the bay was Joe-Sahbe Bay, after a son of the Potowatomi Chief Neatoshing, who was also known as Mishicott. Joe-Sahbe means "Feather of the rolling cloud".

The community was founded in 1872 by John Eliasen, a Danish immigrant. Lumber and fishing were important businesses in the 19th century, replaced by fruit growing in the early 20th century, and today tourism is the main business.

Education
Gibraltar Area Schools serves the community. Gibraltar Elementary School and Gibraltar Secondary School are the two schools.

Attractions
Important attractions include The Clearing, a private center for adult education that was originally established by Jens Jensen, a prominent landscape architect. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Other attractions include the Mink River four miles south, Turtle Ridge Gallery, a cooking school, former Church turned Asian art gallery turned coffee shop, and pottery studios. Local restaurants in Ellison Bay are the Viking Grill, home to one of Door County's oldest fish boils, and the Wickman House, a restaurant featuring local produce.

Ellison Bluff
Ellison Bluff County Park includes a scenic hiking trail, a picnic area, and a fenced catwalk. The bluff area has wildflowers and trees. One cedar was found to be over 250 years old. Rough-winged swallows hunt for insects along the bluff. Other birds seen at the park include American redstart, great-crested flycatcher, broad-winged hawk, wood thrush, scarlet tanager, yellow-throated vireo, and pileated woodpecker. 170 acres of the park is protected as the Ellison Bluff State Natural Area.

2006 explosion
On July 10, 2006, an explosion leveled the 136-year-old Pioneer Store, killing two vacationers and injuring 13 others. The blast also burned down one cottage and damaged another. It is believed a propane gas leak caused the explosion, which may have resulted from a contractor damaging unmarked underground propane lines.

Basque alphabet

The Basque alphabet is a Latin alphabet used to write the Basque language. It consists of 27 letters.

List of letters
The letters of the Basque alphabet are the 26 letters of the ISO basic Latin alphabet plus. The letter is officially not considered a separate letter, but a variant of.

This is the whole list, plus their corresponding phonemes in IPA:

All letters and digraphs represent unique phonemes. The main exception is if are preceded by ; most dialects palatalize the sound into,  and  even if that is not written.

is silent in most regions but is pronounced in much of the Northeast, which is the main reason for its existence in the Basque alphabet. It doesn't even represent syllable breaks in the other dialects, although it can stop the aforementioned palatalization from taking place in some words, for example the in Ainhoa.

Digraphs
There are several digraphs (successive letters used to represent a single sound):

History
For most of its history, Basque writers used the conventions of Romance languages like Spanish or French. Thus Pedro Agerre's 1643 book was titled Guero corresponding to modern gero ("Later") and the 18th-century motto Irurac bat would be Hirurak bat ("The three as one"). In the late 19th century the nationalist politician Sabino Arana proposed several changes, including new letters such as and  that were not accepted in the standard orthography. Resurrección María de Azkue's Basque dictionary used also an idiosyncratic spelling with.

The present-day Standard Basque was developed in the second half of the 20th century, and has been set by rules of Euskaltzaindia (the Basque Language Academy). Regarding the alphabet, the main criticism by Biscayan and Gipuzkoan traditionalists targeted the, as the orthography ruled by Euskaltzaindia used it in several words that those traditionalists wrote without this letter, which is silent both in Biscay and Gipuzkoa — whereas it was pronounced in all Basque dialects some centuries ago and still is pronounced in much of the Northeast. On the other hand, Basque speakers of the Northeast had to learn to write several words with fewer or no letters, because usually a  used in their tradition was not taken into the Standard Basque orthography. These changes from the various traditions into the modern Standard Basque were proposed and accepted by the young generations of Basque writers, so the controversy faded as the older generations died.

Letter frequencies
In a sample of 135,878,500 characters, the most common letter in Basque is and the least common is. Note that is treated as a variant of  and is not considered to be a separate letter of the Basque alphabet.

The letter is used:

1. In the Suletin (Zuberoan) dialect of Basque.

2. In standard Basque, it is used in geographical names from the Suletin dialect, e. g. Garrüze 'Garris, Pyrénées-Atlantiques', and their derivatives, e. g. garrüztar 'inhabitant of Garris'.

1986 CFL season

The 1986 CFL season is considered to be the 33rd season in modern-day Canadian football, although it is officially the 29th Canadian Football League season.

CFL News in 1986
The CFL decided that all nine teams will play 18 games each, in the regular season. The playoff structure was revised to allow a fourth place team from one of the divisions to qualify for the playoffs if that fourth place team has earned more points in the regular season standings than the third place team from the other division. Until 1992, however, that team stayed in its own division for the playoffs (the league began American expansion in 1993, changing the rules along the way). The four qualifiers in one division played semi-finals and a final while the two qualifiers in the other division playing a home-and-home, total-points, 2-game playoff (this playoff format was last used in 1972). This was somewhat unfair to the first place team, who might no longer receive a first-round bye based simply on what happened at the bottom of its own division. (The current format, which began in 1997 after the league ceased its American operations, sees a fourth-place qualifier cross-over to the other division, essentially becoming the third-place team in that division.) As it turned out, 1986 was the only year this playoff format was needed.

The Canadian Football League and the Canadian Football League Players Association agreed on a new three-year agreement.

The Concordes changed their name to the Alouettes, coinciding with the 40th anniversary of the founding of the original Montreal Alouettes.

The Sports Network started to carry live coverage of the first round of the 1986 Canadian College Draft from coast-to-coast.

The Winnipeg Blue Bombers and the Montreal Alouettes played the first CFL pre-season game at Canada Games Stadium in Saint John, New Brunswick. Winnipeg won the game, 35–10.

The CFL also amended the quota to the teams 35-man roster to include 13 imports, 19 non-imports and 3 quarterbacks. The designated import rule was eliminated.

On the field, the end zones were reduced to 20 yards from 25 yards (in response to the popularity of the shortened end zones first used at BC Place in 1983).

The amateur Canadian Football Association changed its name to Football Canada in June; the Football Canada name had long been used in French.

The CTV Television Network ceased CFL broadcasts after this season; it had aired CFL games since 1962. The league-run syndicated Canadian Football Network took its place the next season.

Socceresque
Obscure nelogism, dicdef NeilN 03:35, 3 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Could never be more than a dicdef. Quale 04:26, 3 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. The concept of being "almost as beautiful as soccer" is close enough to succeeding in acheiving the meaningless ness of "colorless green ideas sleep furiously" without having any of the significance of Chomsky's sentence.  This is a neologism, but worse: the -def part of this dicdef is hardly something encyclopedic.  Not to mention it's the sort of neologism some people (myself included) make up twenty-dozen times a day because we like tacking  derivational morphemes onto words to create our own words instead of using everybody else's.  And not one such word (socceresque, ironage, stenchify, etceterize, etc.) is deserving of a Wikipedia article.  The Literate Engineer 05:04, 3 October 2005 (UTC)

Virtual Star Trek
Also nominating two other associated pages: Star Trek: Star's End and Star Trek: Renaissance. They are about a fan site; there are no links to them from outside the set and they seem like ads. At least merge the articles. Jason McHuff 03:36, 3 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Delete all three. Virtual Star Trek is a non-notable website, the other two are fanfics. Quale 04:11, 3 October 2005 (UTC)

Chrissy Snow
No educational value. Not everyone in the world is familiar with her.152.163.100.203 03:36, 3 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. Possibly second-worst nomination ever.--Nicodemus75 03:42, 3 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. That's a stupid reason for deletion. Nelson Ricardo 04:16, 3 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep encyclopediae arent textbooks. valid article on notable subject. Nateji77 04:56, 3 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Change vote to speedy keep. Nateji77 05:31, 3 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Speedy Keep I'm sure the nominator isn't even trying to be serious with the absurd reasoning. --rob 05:17, 3 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment the user contributions and ip addresses for this nom found here look similar to those for this nom, who also nominated the speedily-kept Three's Company article. if it's a single user rather than several users sharing ip addresses then heshe has also contributed to a number of articles on professional wrestling, which i personally feel to be of even less educational value than famous 70s sitcoms. not sure why you'd have an agenda against 3s company, tho. Nateji77 05:31, 3 October 2005 (UTC)
 * keep as per Jack Tripper and Three's Company. And while we're at it, a pre-emptive keep on any articles on Janet Wood, the Ropers, Man about the House, Robin Tripp, Chrissy Plummer, et al. Grutness...  wha?  05:33, 3 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Speedy Keep. Sigh.  Jkelly 07:07, 3 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Speedy keep. The next time I write an article about a fictional character, I'll make it a point to travel all around the world, making sure even the old people and small children in small, remote African villages who have never used a computer have heard of them, just so it satisfies the Wikipedia inclusion guidelines. Not. — J I P | Talk 07:22, 3 October 2005 (UTC)

Kaipa

Kaipa is a Swedish progressive rock band.

History
The band was formed as Ura Kaipa by Hans Lundin (keyboards) and Tomas Eriksson (bass) from San Michael's. Roine Stolt joined Kaipa as guitarist when he was 17. In 1974, shortly after they had cut the "Ura" from the name of the band, they released their self-titled debut album. Stolt, who later founded The Flower Kings, left the group in 1979, after the album Solo.

In 2014, original members Roine Stolt, Ingemar Bergman, and Tomas Eriksson re-grouped under the name Kaipa DaCapo to play the old music from the first three albums as well as brand new music. New members of the band are Mikael Stolt, brother of Roine, on vocals and guitar, and renowned Swedish musician Max Lorentz on keyboards. A new album was released in 2016, followed by a live album recorded in 2017.
