Embassy of the United States, Ottawa
I think that the tone of this article needs to be reworked. The building is very controversial in Ottawa. Not a lot of people like it. It's located right next to beautifully designed buildings. It's a bit of an eyesore. Range (talk) 00:56, 9 May 2008 (UTC)

After having reviewed this article a few times, I believe that it is biased. It needs to be edited. Range (talk) 23:28, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

I just visited Ottawa for Canada Day, and as a US citizen, the building is an ugly monstrosity inflicted on the city. I am ashamed we paid for this. --75.5.2.17 (talk) 04:07, 6 July 2010 (UTC)

Shi Ren

Shi Ren (fl. 200s–220), courtesy name Junyi, was an official serving under the warlord Liu Bei in the late Eastern Han dynasty.

Life
Shi Ren was from Guangyang Commandery (廣陽郡), which is located southwest of present-day Daxing District, Beijing. He served at Gong'an County in Jing Province as a subordinate of the general Guan Yu, who was appointed by the warlord Liu Bei to guard Jing Province. Following a dispute with Guan Yu, Shi Ren and Mi Fang defected to the warlord Sun Quan when Guan Yu was away at the Battle of Fancheng. Shi Ren and Mi Fang allowed Sun Quan's forces to overrun Jing Province, leading to Guan Yu's defeat and death.

In Romance of the Three Kingdoms
In the 14th-century historical novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Shi Ren is referred to Fu Shiren (傅士仁). Despite this misspelling, his role is relatively consistent with history. In the novel, before the Battle of Fancheng, Guan Yu appoints Mi Fang and Fu Shiren as the commanders of the vanguard force, but that night they carelessly allow a fire to break out in the camp. Guan Yu wants to execute them for their negligence, but spares them after Fei Shi pleads on their behalf. He then orders them to be flogged and reassigned to guard Nan Commandery and Gong'an County respectively while he is away at Fancheng.

During the invasion of Jing Province, Lü Meng sends Yu Fan, a childhood friend of Fu Shiren, to persuade Fu Shiren to surrender. Fu Shiren agrees to surrender after reading a letter from Yu Fan. After that, Lü Meng sends Fu Shiren to convince Mi Fang to surrender as well. Although Mi Fang is initially reluctant to do so, he defects to the enemy as well after he hears that a threat from Guan Yu to execute him if he fails to deliver supplies to the frontline in time.

Fu Shiren and Mi Fang appear in the novel again before the Battle of Yiling. They overhear a plot to kill them, so they assassinate Ma Zhong (馬忠), who captured Guan Yu in an ambush, and bring his head along when attempting to return to Liu Bei's side. However, Liu Bei refuses to accept them and orders Guan Xing (Guan Yu's son) to execute them for betraying his father.

I am a complete ignoramus in psychology and pedagogy, not to say pedology.

Pedology (study of children) → Paedology – Per WP:CONCISE, WP:DAB, WP:ATDAB, WP:UCRN. Use a common name in lieu of parenthetical disambiguation. And this isn't even a proper parenthetical DAB anyway: it's a synonym/definition, not a qualifier. It also it reads like broken English. Worse yet, it's ambiguous in and of itself (how is that a disambiguation?!), seeming to imply a study children not the study of them. It thus comes across as the title of a published work, not the name of a field of study. Oh, and the paed- spelling cannot apply the pedology, the study of soils (it's a different ped- root). So, the move satisfies WP:SMALLDETAILS, though DAB hatnotes will be needed. — AReaderOutThataway t/c 09:59, 6 November 2018 (UTC)

Doc Blanchard

Felix Anthony "Doc" Blanchard (December 11, 1924 – April 19, 2009) was an American football player and serviceman who became the first junior to win the Heisman Trophy and Maxwell Award, and was the first football player to win the James E. Sullivan Award, all in 1945. He played football for the Army Cadets, where he was known as "Mr. Inside".

Because his father was a physician, Felix Blanchard was nicknamed "Little Doc" as a boy. After football, he was a fighter pilot in the U.S. Air Force, and served from 1947 until 1971, when he retired with the rank of colonel.

Early life
Blanchard was born on December 11, 1924, in McColl, South Carolina. His father was a doctor and had played college football at Tulane University and Wake Forest University. The Blanchards moved from McColl, South Carolina, to Dexter, Iowa, in 1929. Two years later, they settled in Bishopville, South Carolina.

Blanchard, nicknamed "Little Doc", attended high school at Saint Stanislaus College in Bay St. Louis, Mississippi. He led the school's football team, the Rockachaws, to an undefeated season during his senior year in 1941. Blanchard was recruited to play college football by Army, Fordham University and the University of Notre Dame, among others. Blanchard said in 1985 that he had been contacted about going to West Point when he was in high school. He said, "At that point in time, I really wasn't interested. Academically, I never was too hot, so I never had any idea I would pass the entrance examination and go to West Point."

Instead, Blanchard chose to play for the University of North Carolina Tar Heels, in part because its coach, Jim Tatum, was his mother's cousin. Because NCAA rules at the time did not allow freshmen to play varsity, Blanchard played with the freshman team.

In 1943 after the United States became one of the Allies in World War II, Blanchard enlisted in the U.S. Army. He was stationed in New Mexico with a chemical-warfare unit until enrolling at West Point in July 1944 in an appointment his father secured.

West Point years
During his three years of playing football at West Point, his team under coach Earl "Red" Blaik compiled an undefeated 27–0–1 record – the tie being a famous 0–0 game against Notre Dame in 1946.

Notre Dame coach Edward McKeever was amazed by Blanchard. After his 1944 team lost to Army by a score of 59–0, McKeever said, "I've just seen Superman in the flesh. He wears number 35 and goes by the name of Blanchard."

An all-around athlete, Blanchard served as the placekicker and punter in addition to his primary roles as an offensive fullback and a linebacker on defense. He soon teamed with Glenn Davis on the 1944–45–46 teams (Davis won the Heisman in 1946, the year after Blanchard won it). They formed one of the most lethal rushing combinations in football history. In his three seasons at West Point Blanchard scored 38 touchdowns, gained 1,908 yards and earned the nickname "Mr. Inside." Teammate Davis earned the nickname "Mr. Outside" and in November 1945, they both shared the cover of Time magazine.

In 1984, at the awards ceremony marking the 50th Heisman Trophy presentation, Blanchard took the occasion to recall, in comparison to the big glitzy shows for the ceremony today, how he learned of his Heisman selection in 1945. He said, "I got a telegram. It said, 'You've been selected to win the Heisman Trophy. Please wire collect.'"

In 1946, Blanchard missed the first two games of the season due to an injury to his knee. In June 1946 his class was divided into two classes (1947 and 1948) to transition back to a peacetime four-year curriculum from the wartime three-year curriculum instituted in October 1942. Both Blanchard and Davis were placed in the final three-year group, the Class of 1947 (Davis had entered West Point in July 1943 but was turned back a year in 1944 for a deficiency in mathematics).

In 1947, Blanchard played himself in the movie The Spirit of West Point. His West Point teammate Glenn Davis also played himself in the film. Other cast members include Robert Shayne as Coach Colonel Earl "Red" Blaik, Anne Nagel as Mrs. Blaik, George O'Hanlon as Joe Wilson, Michael Browne as Roger "Mileaway" McCarty, Tanis Chandler as Mildred, Mary Newton as Mrs. Mary Blanchard and William Forrest as Doc Blanchard's father, Dr. Felix Blanchard. Also appearing as themselves are 1940 Heisman Trophy winner Tom Harmon and sportscasters Bill Stern and Harry Wismer. The screenplay was written by Tom Reed based on a story by Mary Howard. Ralph Murphy directed.

In addition to football, Blanchard was also a member of the Army track and field team, with a shot put championship and a ten-second 100-yard dash in 1945.

In 1947, Blanchard graduated from West Point, 296th in order of merit among 310 graduates, and was commissioned as a second lieutenant in the U.S. Air Force. He coached Army's freshman team in the 1950s, but he never played professional football, choosing a military career instead.

Military career
Blanchard had the opportunity to play professional football after being selected third overall in the 1946 NFL Draft by the Pittsburgh Steelers. After he was turned down in for a furlough to play in the NFL, Blanchard then chose to embark upon a career in the U.S. Air Force, earned his pilot wings in autumn 1948, became a fighter pilot, and flew the F-80 Shooting Star.

In 1959, while with the 77th Tactical Fighter Squadron and flying back to his base at RAF Wethersfield near London, England, a fuel leak in Major Blanchard's F-100 Super Sabre broke and caught his plane on fire. Rather than escaping and parachuting out safely, he decided to stay with the plane and land it safely, because of a village on the ground that would have been damaged. This garnered him an Air Force commendation for bravery.

In the Vietnam War, Blanchard flew 113 missions from Thailand, 84 of them over North Vietnam, in the F-105 Thunderchief fighter-bomber during a one-year tour of duty that ended in January 1969. He retired from the Air Force in 1971 as a colonel, then spent several more years as the commandant of cadets at the New Mexico Military Institute, a junior college that prepares students to enter the service academies.

Death
Blanchard died of pneumonia at age 84 on April 19, 2009, in Bulverde, Texas. He lived with his daughter Mary and her husband Aaron for the last fifteen years of his life. At the time of his death, he was the oldest living Heisman Trophy winner, and is interred at Fort Sam Houston National Cemetery in San Antonio, Texas.

Honors and memorials
Blanchard was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 1959.

At a 1990 ceremony, he presented his Heisman Trophy, Maxwell Award, James E. Sullivan Award, and jersey to his—and his father's —high school alma mater, Saint Stanislaus College prep school in Bay St. Louis, Mississippi. The trophy, awards and jersey were enshrined in the Brother Alexis Memorial Resource Center on the Saint Stanislaus campus until they were briefly lost to flooding during Hurricane Katrina. The items have since been recovered.

In Blanchard's honor, the Interstate 20 / U.S. Route 15 interchange near his hometown of Bishopville, South Carolina, has been named the Felix "Doc" Blanchard Interchange.

Beginning in 2004 the Rotary presents the Doc Blanchard Award as well as the Glenn Davis Award to the two high school football players participating in the U.S. Army All American Bowl who best exemplify the U.S. Army's high standard of excellence in community service, education and athletic distinction. The Doc Blanchard Award is given to a player from the Bowl's East team, while the Davis Award is given to a player from the Bowl's West team. The first recipient of the Doc Blanchard Award was Ryan Baker.

West Point announced in April 2009, before Blanchard's death, that Blanchard's number 35 would be retired, and it was on October 10 during a home game against Vanderbilt.

Joseph Papineau

Joseph Papineau (October 16, 1752 – July 8, 1841) was a notary, seigneur, and political figure in Lower Canada.

Between 1773 and 1775, he worked as a surveyor. Papineau was also a horticulturalist whose estate home at Montebello is a tourist attraction to this day in the province of Québec, Canada. His own contributions to the culture and history of this particular province are recognized to this day with streets, squares, and monuments being dedicated to his memory. A historical marker is located at his former house on Rue Bonsecours in Ville-Marie. The marker text states: "Joseph Papineau (1752 - 1841), notary and deputy, lived in this house. His son Louis-Joseph Papineau (1786-1871), lawyer, statesman and leader of the uprising of 1837, also lived there as well as his descendants."

Joseph Papineau was the father of Louis-Joseph Papineau who had the great distinction of being a fiery player in the history of the French dominated British colony called Lower Canada. His other son, Denis-Benjamin, also played a significant though lesser role in politics of Canada East, serving as joint premier in the Legislative Assembly.

His son Louis-Joseph was even more influential in creating a strong Québec identity due to his political activities. The involvement of Louis-Joseph Papineau and Ezekiel Hart is responsible for Jews being granted full citizen rights in any territory or nation several decades before many other countries followed suit. This may be among his most important contribution to pre-Confederation Canadian history. (The first Jewish synagogues had opened in Montreal after the British Conquest of 1760.)

Requested move (2014)

 * The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: move the page to The Star Spangled Banner (Whitney Houston recording) with redirects from the other proposed titles, per the discussion below. Dekimasu よ! 00:25, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

The Star Spangled Banner (Whitney Houston song) → Whitney Houston's Super Bowl XXV performance – "The Star-Spangled Banner" is not a Whitney Houston song, and the current title implies that she recorded her own song called "The Star Spangled Banner" that is not the US National Anthem. Much of the article discusses her famous rendition of the song at Super Bowl XXV, and I think this would be a more appropriate title. I am open to similar suggestions for titles and am not restricting discussion solely to my proposed title. –Chase (talk / contribs) 23:01, 23 November 2014 (UTC)

16:23, 24 November 2014 (UTC): There seems to be some support for The Star-Spangled Banner (Whitney Houston recording). I am not opposed to it at all. –Chase (talk / contribs) 16:23, 24 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Support - title proposed is certainly a big improvement. Better something with keeps the song name like The Star Spangled Banner (Whitney Houston Superbowl recording). In ictu oculi (talk) 03:26, 24 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Comment – The article seems to be a bit inconsistent, in that it refers to the song as a single in the lead, but most of the article itself is about the performance. Either the article should be moved as per the proposal and the lead needs to be slightly rewritten (...though I guess that would probably be necessary if the article was moved to a totally different title anyway), or perhaps the article needs to be split into separate articles for the single and the performance. --V2Blast (talk) 08:01, 24 November 2014 (UTC)
 * weak oppose
 * "The Star Spangled Banner" "Whitney Houston" gets "About 1,300 results"
 * "The Star Spangled Banner" "Super Bowl XXV" gets "About 241 results"
 * "Whitney Houston" "Super Bowl XXV" gets "About 414 results"
 * Suggest swapping "song" for "recording", "performance" or similar. I guess that people probably bought the track because of the song and because of Houston not because of a connection to the Super Bowl Gregkaye ✍ ♪  10:04, 24 November 2014 (UTC)

 * Support – I believe its completely better to move the article to Super Bowl XXV halftime show, keeping it consistent with the half time show articles. — Indian: BIO  [ ChitChat ] 14:13, 24 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Houston performed the national anthem, not the halftime show. –Chase (talk / contribs) 16:20, 24 November 2014 (UTC)
 * In that case I go with In Ictu's option. — Indian: BIO  [ ChitChat ] 19:27, 26 November 2014 (UTC)

 * Support It's a national anthem, performed by her. Not an original song by her. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 143.65.196.20 (talk • contribs) 11:28, 25 November 2014
 * Support. But I will remind you all of WP:NSONG which reads, Songs with notable cover versions are normally covered in one common article about the song and the cover versions. --Richhoncho (talk) 20:23, 25 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Support. Since this is a cover song, people may get confused that the Star Spangled Banner could be written by Whitney Houston, which it is not. To make readers clear that this is a cover song, I support the move. — CookieMonster755 (talk) 06:31, 28 November 2014 (UTC)

improper tone of wording

Jonny Kennedy

Jonathan "Jonny" Kennedy (4 November 1966 – 26 September 2003) was a British man who had a rare inherited condition known as dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (EB or DEB). Kennedy ultimately died of skin cancer, a complication of EB.

Biography
Kennedy was born in North Shields, Tyne and Wear, and spent most of his life in neighbouring Northumberland. He had a severe form of dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa and was born with no skin on his left leg.

In September 2002, Kennedy was diagnosed with terminal cancer and he was given a year to live. He was a Spiritualist who saw death as "a freedom and an escape."

Kennedy died in 2003 at the age of 36, whilst being filmed for a documentary, on a train returning from a meeting at 10 Downing Street with Cherie Blair.

One of Kennedy's favourite bands was Queen; at his funeral, the Queen song "Don't Stop Me Now" was played. His childhood friend the Lord Redesdale was in attendance and spoke as per Kennedy's request. He was cremated and his ashes were scattered at the Tenantry Column in Alnwick.

Documentary
After he was diagnosed with terminal skin cancer, Kennedy teamed up with filmmaker Patrick Collerton to make a video diary documenting the final few months of his life in order to raise awareness of his condition. In the film, The Boy Whose Skin Fell Off, which also featured interviews with his friends and family, Kennedy opens up about his feelings concerning his impending death, and offers a glimpse into the life of someone with his condition.

The Boy Whose Skin Fell Off was originally intended for release only on local channels until it attracted the attention of Channel 4, who bought the film for national scheduling. When the film was first broadcast in March 2004 on Channel 4 in the UK, it received critical acclaim and attracted around five million viewers. It also helped raise £500,000 for the charity DebRA, with the donations used to fund research, and to support families in the region affected by epidermolysis bullosa. The documentary was voted the sixth most popular film in the Channel 4 programme The 50 Greatest Documentaries of All Time, in 2005. However, certain medical professionals considered it "too graphic" and noted that it had caused anxiety and distress in patients with similar conditions due to its focus on Johnny's impending death.

The documentary was aired again on Channel 4 in May 2020.

Someone has nominated this article for "Featured Article." However, I don't believe that the article is ready. I am particularly concerned about arts and entertainment, outside references, and overall article format. However, with more work this article can be worthy of FA. Any comment is appreciated. Pentawing 04:55, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * It looks pretty decent to me, but there's always more that can be added. Comparing to Seattle, Washington, for example, the page could potentially include information on the "Official nickname, flower, slogan, and song", mayors of note, street layout, medical centers and hospitals, utilities, and some more references. I also compared to London, which has "London in the arts", markets and shopping areas, and parks and gardens. (Although that may be a bit much, as London is an absolutely enormous place. :-) — RJH 16:38, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * I added a new section called "Health and medicine" (concerning the hospitals) and a passage about the street arrangements under "Transportation" (the passage paraphrases some material from the Boston transportation article, which is the main article for that section). Right now, they are rudimentary and would need further improvement in the near future. Pentawing 17:31, 4 Jun 2005 (UTC)

History of Boston, Massachusetts could use a lot of expansion, and then a better summary in the main article. A lot more could be said about the topological history of the city, its growth, and its annexation of neighboring municipalities. Perhaps something should be added to the main article about the weather-predicting light on the Old John Hancock building, and the Duck Tours should certainly be somewhere in the mix. I'm pretty sure the city has the country's second-largest concentration of LGBT people, after San Francisco; that seems fairly notable, as might the city's relationship to the issuance of same-sex marriage certificates. Come to think of it, there are several major local political controversies that deserve mention. Boston is very concerned about terrorism right now; there are lots of transportation issues; certainly lots about housing prices, the recent abolition of rent control, development, and gentrification in general; town-gown issues; historical preservation. There are lots of juicy politics in the State House, which should probably be covered in the Politics section of Massachusetts, and linked to from here. -- Beland 04:15, 9 Jun 2005 (UTC)

P-90

The P-90 (sometimes written P90) is a single coil electric guitar pickup produced by Gibson Guitar Corporation since 1946, as well as other vendors. Compared to other single coil designs, such as the ubiquitous Fender single coil, the bobbin for a P-90 is wider but shorter. The Fender style single coil is wound in a taller bobbin, but the wires are closer to the individual poles. This makes the P-90 produce a different type of tone, somewhat warmer with less edge and brightness. As with other single-coil pickups, the P-90 is subject to mains hum unless some form of hum cancellation is used.

History
Around 1940, Gibson offered a new bridge pickup cased in metal for the ES-100/125 series as an alternative to the classic Charlie Christian pickup.

Officially, P-90 pickups were introduced in 1946, when Gibson resumed guitar production after World War II. The name refers to the part number as designated by the company. They were initially used to replace Gibson's original "bar" or "blade" pickup, also known as the Charlie Christian pickup, on models such as the ES-150, and by the end of the 1940s it was the standard pickup on all models. The soap bar-style P-90 debuted with the Les Paul electric guitar in 1952.

The P-90's reign as the Gibson standard pickup was short-lived, as a new design of pickup, the humbucker, was introduced in 1957. Equipped with double coils, the new pickup boasted greater output and less hum, although with less high end response. This new pickup, occasionally named PAF (or Patent Applied For), very quickly took over as the preferred choice for all Gibson models, relegating the P-90 to budget models such as the ES-330, the Les Paul Junior and Special, and the SG Junior and Special, such as those used by Pete Townshend and Carlos Santana for their brighter, rawer, sound. This trend continued throughout the 1960s and particularly in the early 1970s, where the P-90 all but disappeared from the entire Gibson range. By the 1970s, smaller single-coil pickups, mini-humbucking pickups, and uncovered humbucking pickups began replacing the P-90 pickups on Gibson's budget and lower-end models.

In 1968, Gibson reissued the original, single-cutaway Les Paul, one version being a Goldtop with P-90 pickups. In 1972, they produced Limited Edition reissues, called the "58 Reissue" though actually based on the 54 Goldtop Les Paul, with a stopbar tailpiece; and the 54 Custom, the "Black Beauty," equipped with a P-90 in the bridge and an Alnico 5 pickup at the neck. Total production of these guitars was quite small. In 1974, Gibson put the P-90 pickup in their Les Paul '55, a reissue of the Les Paul Special from that era. It was followed in 1976 by the Les Paul Special double-cutaway (DC) model and in 1978 by the Les Paul Pro (which had an ebony fingerboard with trapezoid inlays). Since the 1970s, the P-90 pickup has seen some success in various models in the Gibson line, mostly through reissues and custom versions of existing models. Currently it is featured most prominently on the Les Paul Faded Doublecut, and certain models in the Historic range.

In the early 1970s, punk rock guitarists such as Johnny Thunders of The New York Dolls began using Les Paul Juniors and Les Paul Specials equipped with P-90s because of the cutting overdriven sound and the inexpensive nature of the guitars. In both The Dolls and The Heartbreakers, Thunders influenced younger punk rock guitarists who adopted his look and choice of guitar. Mick Jones of The Clash and Steve Jones of The Sex Pistols both owned Les Paul Juniors, and the double-cutaway Junior became the first choice for punk rock guitarists. The P-90 was also marketed by Gibson in the 1970s as the "Laid Back" pickup, as part of a line of "named" pickups.

For the 2014 model year, the Les Paul Melody Maker featured a variant of the P-90 pickup called the P-90S, inspired by the original pickup of the Gibson ES-125. This variant possesses six rectangular Alnico-slug pole pieces with no individual height adjustment.

Varieties

There are three major varieties of P-90 casing:

 * Soap bar, which have a rectangular shape and mounting screws contained within the coil perimeter, is positioned between the pole pieces of the second and third, and fourth and fifth, strings. The resulting irregular and somewhat unusual pattern causes the screws to occasionally be mistaken for pole pieces. The soap bar nickname most probably comes from its shape and proportions, and that the P-90s shape and white color on the original Gibson Les Paul gave birth to the retroactive nickname "soap bar" as a means of distinguishing them and others sharing their basic configurations from latter generation P90 pickups.

 * Dog ear have mounting screw extensions on both sides of the pickup. These were commonly mounted on Gibson's hollow-body guitars like the ES-330 and occasionally on solid-body models like the Les Paul Junior. The same pickups were also available on Epiphone models (since Gibson was building Epiphone guitars in the 1950s) and the design is best remembered among them for its appearance on the hollow body Epiphone Casino of the mid to late 1960s.
 * Humbucker style allows a P-90 to be retroactively installed on guitars that came with humbuckers. The existing route in the guitar body must be altered to fit a standard P-90; the humbucker style casing minimizes the effort to install one and any potential alignment issues. As a result, pseudo P-90s in a humbucker style casing are common (see below).

Sound
Being a single-coil design, the tone of a P-90 is somewhat brighter than a humbucker, though not quite as crisp and snappy as Fender's single-coil pickups. The tone therefore shares some of the single coil twang, but having large amounts of midrange and often described as “thick". The reason behind the tonal difference between P-90s and Fender single-coil pickups is due to construction methods. P-90s use bar magnets set under the polepieces, much like a humbucker, whereas Fender single-coils use rod magnets as the polepieces. Popular guitars that use or have the option of using P-90s are the Gibson SG, Gibson Les Paul, and the Epiphone Casino. Fender Jazzmaster pickups are often confused with the P-90; however, their only similarity is cosmetic, since there are many significant visual, dimensional and electrical differences.

The placement of the guitar pickups by Gibson before World War II was such that they emphasised the treble response to compensate for the low frequencies of the electronics in the bass. The increased output and high end afforded by the P-90 design allowed the company to position the pickup closer to the neck.

All Gibson P-90 pickups (vintage and otherwise) were machine wound on Leesona coil winding machines, although their electrical specifications may vary slightly due to operator error. In common with many other modern pickup types, there are two versions of modern P-90: neck and bridge version. Their DC resistance tends to be around 8 kΩ. Early P-90 pickups made before approximately 1974 were manufactured with no difference in the bridge and neck position and were interchangeable. After winding, pickups were hung on a rack holding twenty pickups and assembled according to the model of guitar they were to be used on (Soap-Bar or Dog Ear). Earlier pickups (around 1952) had Alnico 3 magnets, but in 1957 Gibson switched to Alnico 5.

 * Oppose rename, would prefer by nationality as currently. Art is more closely associated with culture/language (thus nationality) than political division (thus by country). Keep all these and make by nationality the standard. Eventually, move U.S. theatre to American theatre, but this can wait for a consensus discussion on that issue.

 * In fact, while the title of the main category is "Theatre by country," the subcategories aren't actually set up that way. They are by nationality. e.g. Category:Jewish film and theatre, the presence of Carl Djerassi in the Austrian category rather than the American (all the work for which he appears in the category was done in the United States).

 * I'm personally more convinced by the argument that since theatre is fundamentally a cultural topic, the categories should be named according to the naming convention that applies to cultural topics. Oppose rename; just rename the Category:Theatre by country category itself to be consistent with the cultural convention. Bearcat 18:32, 15 October 2005 (UTC)
 * I buy the culturual argument. Oppose and rename Category:Theatre by country to Category:Theatre by nationality. -The Tom 16:32, 16 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Let me throw in my two cents. The reason I oppose naming Theatre categoryies by nationality is that the names can be confusing. If someone sees the category Category:French theatre at the bottom of an article they may ask the question "is this referring to French language theatre or Theatre in France?" Theatre in France is certainly more clear in my opinion, while maybe there should be a category for French speaking theatre as well (I'm thinking about creating a category for that). While theatre is associated with language, there are major difference when you examine the art of theatre in France compared with a French speaking country like Senegal in West Africa. Plus, what does one do with "Theatre in the United Arab Emiriates," "Theatre of Bosnia and Herzegovina" if the Nationality X policy is used. Just my two cents...Ganymead 16:45, 16 October 2005 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure that "theatre in X" is really any clearer; but even so the advantage of "Nationality X" is that it makes editors more free to categorize things in the natural way. For instance, by nationality Oedipus the King clearly falls into Ancient Greek theatre; but given where its been translated, most frequently performed and criticised, etc., it could just as easily fall into a dozen other categories if we do things by country. It associates with a culture rather than with a place. I think the slight ambiguity of terms like "French" is likely good, as it allows both for things that are associated with France due to location (for instance, the subcat Category:Theatres in France, as well as culture, for instance, the inclusion of kabuki theater in the Japanese theatre article. By what standard would you clearly associate a genre of theatre with a political entity? Christopher Parham (talk) 17:59, 16 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Oppose per Christopher's argument. bogdan | Talk 18:55, 16 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Oppose per Christopher's arguments. In my opinion, "French theatre" is for theatre belonging to french culture (refered mainly to french language, but also to french dramatists or actors). "Theatre in France" is for theatre represented in France, that can be, for example, Ancient Greek theatre, or Japanese theatre. (and, besides, it's easy to confuse with the building type: "Theatres in France"). This argument is for countries, so I subscrive to rename Category:New York Theatre. --Joan sense nick 13:27, 17 October 2005 (UTC)

A category for Prinsessakerho, a very small (14 members) exclusive Finnish club. The club itself is notable enough to merit its own article, but it doesn't deserve its own category. Particularly not when the category only consists of four pages: the club itself, two of its members (Rakel Liekki and Maria Kekkonen, curiously both former porn stars), and a template. At the very least it should be subcategorised further than directly under Category:Finland. — J I P | Talk 18:54, 10 October 2005 (UTC)

 * The category might be more usefull, if all the members get their articles. These two pornstars doesn't seem to be the only notable people in the club. The size of the club can also grow (even, if it is unlikely to grow very big, beacause of the clubs rules on taking new members). I added the template to the category while creating it to make it work automaticly, trying to avoid category being managed by hand, separately for every single article on the members. I put the category directly under Finland, because I didn't find a good place for it and hoped someone would recategorise it into a better place fast there after. Note that it is a default policy to e.g. create albums categories for artists having only one album. So I don't know, if this is any worse when the category finds it place. But I'm not sure yet, if it is good or bad to have this category, so I'm looking forward to reading further discussion on the subject. --Easyas12c 21:21, 10 October 2005 (UTC)

The term "manicheism" is not simply a "synonym for heresy," as the article states, but a specific type of heresy.  It is the dualist heresy.  Thus, the Bogomils and Cathars were manicheans, even if they were never in any way connected to the religion of Manicheism.  I.e. they had the manicheist heresy of dualism.  Their particular heresy has been revived in recent years, incidentally.  I'm not sure that the Albigensians were ever orthodox in any sense, much less superficially.  More people will encounter "Manicheism" as a type of heresy than as a religion, I suspect, but, even if the numbers are even, it's irresponsible for the present article to have such a stunted (and incorrect) section.  The rest of the article seems ok to me, except that there are copyedit issues, such as '"scriptures.", resulting,' where the period inside the closing quote (American style) is left, while a comma outside (British style) is put in to make it part of the next sentence.  That's ticky-tacky and easily fixed, but the Christianity section needs a big injection.  I'll be happy to help as I am able from my sources, if the authors are interested. Geogre 02:36, 10 October 2005 (UTC)
 * I've done some addition from an NPOV source (one unaware that anyone would try to revive it and therefore not interested in saying anything good or bad about it), but I have other objections, which are now on the talk page of the article. I have to remain objecting, so long as much of the article is reliant upon a very, very highly POV source and maintains that this is a "major world religion."  I'm not sure at what point a heresy becomes a sect or a sect a denomination or a denomination a religion, but the lead suggests that this independent thing met, some time later, Christianity, and such does not appear to be the case at all.  Geogre 00:53, 11 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Object. The image Image:Tiffany Window of St Augustine - Lightner Museum.JPG has no copyright information. --Carnildo 07:22, 10 October 2005 (UTC)
 * It was taken by the uploader and is thus GFDL. Fixed. Ashibaka (tock) 15:25, 10 October 2005 (UTC)

 * No vote. I have no clear idea whether this article should be FA or not. But I like to clarify some points:
 * I don't think Manicheism is a widespread and difficult heresy in Christianity. In my view Manicheism is a religion similar to Christianity, but independent.
 * The statement the term "manicheism" is simply a "synonym for heresy" is an ancient simplification. Actually, not every dualist heresy / religion is Manicheism, for instance Christian Gnosticism / Gnosticism.
 * Bogomils and Cathars weren't manicheans, but their teaching originated from Manicheism.
 * Albigensians were Cathars, that's why dualistic. But Waldensians were nearly orthodox, they were first of all schismatic. -- Vít Zvánovec 16:00, 11 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Well, if it originated in a Gnostic section of eastern Persia, and if it originated also in a Christian area of Persia, then it would seem to me to be of Christian origin. Again, whether it develops into a religion, as opposed to a heresy, is another matter altogether.  At any rate, the article has too many undocumented and highly controversial claims -- that it was universalist, that it was not, in fact, syncretic, but rather something akin to deistic.  The rest, of course, I agree with, except that I'm not sure the poor Waldensians are part of this.  Geogre 18:08, 11 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Further objection: Given that some of the statements in the article are commonplaces and some are...esoteric...inline references or note-style citations should be used, so the sources of particular statements can be determined and examined for accuracy. WP:NOR may be at play. Geogre 02:20, 12 October 2005 (UTC)
 * I don't see purely Christian origin (contrary to Christian heresies like Arianism). In my view Manicheism was syncretic. But distinction between religion and heresy is vague. Some consider Islam as Christian heresy, some consider Christianity as Judaistic heresy.
 * Concerning Waldensians there is no connection to Manicheism, I just liked to distinguish between Albigensians and Waldensians. -- Vít Zvánovec 08:49, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Object I didn't know anything about Manecheism before reading this article. So I thank the authors and therefore think this article should get featured maybe not this time but maybe in the future.  However I knew the word manichean which means binary or polar.  See  for a discussion.  I think this article must states this meaning already in the head.  This would really help. -- Vb 12:05, 12 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Object — I cannot see any evidence that this artcle has been through peer review. It would have benefitted from that. There is so much more that can be said on this subject: the theology section is woefully inadequate and not enough background on the religious environment of Persia is given. The article is a good introduction, but is decidedly lightweight. --Gareth Hughes 13:02, 13 October 2005 (UTC)

TwentyFourSeven (song)

"TwentyFourSeven" is a song by UK garage duo Artful Dodger. The first version of the song is included on their debut studio album It's All About the Stragglers (2000), and features a singer named Nicole. The single version features All Saints member Melanie Blatt and was released on 3 September 2001, peaking at number six on the UK Singles Chart. Since it was recorded just before the split of All Saints, it was decided to include this song on the group's All Hits album as well.

Artful Dodger initially consisted of Mark Hill and Pete Devereux, but Devereux left prior to the release of the single "TwentyFourSeven", making this the first single of Artful Dodger as a stage name for Mark Hill.

The music video for "TwentyFourSeven", directed by Jamie Morgan, has a springtime feel about it with Melanie Blatt sitting in a rattan chair with a dog.

Alaa Abdelnaby

Alaa Abdelnaby (علاء عبد النبي), (born June 24, 1968) is an Egyptian-American former professional basketball player. He played college basketball for the Duke Blue Devils followed by a five-year National Basketball Association (NBA) career, and then stints in various other leagues. Abdelnaby is one of two Egyptian-born players in the history of the NBA, along with Abdel Nader.

Abdelnaby works as a basketball broadcaster and analyst for NBCS Philadelphia, CBS Sports Network, and Westwood One Radio.

Early life
Abdelnaby was born in Alexandria, Egypt, and moved to the United States with his family in 1971 at the age of two. His father was an engineer and his mother was a computer analyst who had moved to find better jobs. His family became American citizens.

Abelnaby was raised in Nutley and Bloomfield, New Jersey, and played on the Bloomfield High School basketball team. Abdelnaby was selected as a standout American high school athlete as both a McDonald's All-American and a Parade All-American.

College career
Abdelnaby played at Duke University from 1986 to 1990. He had a breakout year as a senior when he averaged 14.9 points and 6.7 rebounds during the regular season. Abdelnaby was a third-team all-Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) selection as a senior. He had a series of widely publicized off-court problems during his early seasons, including an accident where he drove his car into a tree on campus.

Abdelnaby commented on Duke University's academic requirements: "The only way I can make five A's is when I sign my name."

Professional career
Abdelnaby was selected by the Portland Trail Blazers of the National Basketball Association with the 25th pick of the 1990 NBA draft, and he spent five years in the league, playing for Portland as well as the Milwaukee Bucks, Boston Celtics, Philadelphia 76ers, and Sacramento Kings. He was signed by the Golden State Warriors but he never played for that franchise.

After leaving the NBA, Abdelnaby played for the Papagou BC (Greece) (1995–1996), the Omaha Racers (CBA) (1996–1997), Olympique Antibes (France) (1997–1998), and the Idaho Stampede (CBA) (1999–2000).

named in-line references
Hi SimonP, thanks for adding references and material to the article! I wonder if you could further use named in-line citations so as to identify which source supports which points in the article. To form those, you could use something like the following:

and

and invoke the same named footnotes later by:

and in the References section add

to make the references show up there.

These show up as footnotes like these, and these.

References

There are other ways to form footnotes but these would be fine IMO. I would insert them into the article myself but i don't know which source support which sentences or paragraphs. In a good Wikipedia article, usually each paragraph should have at least one reference at the end, and additional references should be used to support other points within the paragraph if material is not all to be credited to one source. Thanks anyhow! --doncram (talk) 15:03, 19 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the pointers, though you may want to check up on users before going to the trouble to write up some advice for beginners. After eight years and ninety thousand edits, I'm fairly confident I know how to format references. This page does need some footnotes. I would add them, but I no longer have either of those sources handy. Next time I have access to them I will get the page numbers. - SimonP (talk) 16:42, 19 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Oh, hey, my bad! Glad to know of a wikipedian in Ottawa, and such a prominent one. :) I have some Ottawa connections and attended church a few times at the First Baptist, years ago, by the way.

J. B. Beverley

J.B. Beverley (born July 11, 1977) is an American musician. Born Joshua Beverley, Beverley goes by the nickname "J.B." which he acquired in grade school. Reared in a musical household, Beverley grew up on early country, bluegrass, rockabilly, big band, and various forms of old time blues.

Life
Learning the drums and guitar, Beverley formed his first band The Bad Habits in 1993. An old-school punk sound, rooted in influences like The Misfits, FEAR, Black Flag, and Motörhead, the Bad Habits achieved notoriety on the central east coast. The band broke up in 1996, and later that year, a posthumous live compilation EP was released on Green Tree's Records entitled "Live For Some Beer Money".

With the Bad Habits gone, Beverley drifted for over a year. Working odd jobs and traveling around the country. J.B. began writing old time country blues songs and busking on street corners to get by. In 1998 he began commuting between the Washington DC area and New York City having become front-man of The Murder Junkies, former backing band of the late GG Allin.

In 1999, J.B. spent several months in Florida fine-tuning his country blues songs, and re-learning some old standards. He re-emerged in the DC area later that year with honky-tonk outfit The Wayward Drifters, and subsequently began touring locally and regionally with the band.

In the fall of 2002, J.B. formed another punk rock band, The Little White Pills. Reminiscent of the Bad Habits, the Little White Pills were a heavier, more refined band - yet with a rough edge. The band released a self-produced CD in 2003 entitled "Live At The Velvet Lounge", did a summer tour that year, and a couple of weekenders the year after.

In 2004, J.B. rejoined the Murder Junkies for two tours, and the Wayward Drifters released a self-produced CD entitled Highball. J.B. also found time to record some local projects and work on new material for all of his respective bands.

In 2005, the Wayward Drifters embarked on a spring tour called "The American Highball Tour", and spent most of the summer touring with friend Hank Williams III.

A follow-up Wayward Drifters album, Watch America Roll By was released in 2009.

In the meantime, Beverley has been working on a long-awaited metal side project called GHOSTDANCE.

J.B. Beverley and the Wayward Drifters continue to tour both regionally and nationally, and - as of November 2015 - Beverley is touring solo.

Hyperaemia

Hyperaemia (also hyperemia) is the increase of blood flow to different tissues in the body. It can have medical implications but is also a regulatory response, allowing change in blood supply to different tissues through vasodilation (widening of blood vessels). Clinically, hyperaemia in tissues manifests as erythema (redness of the skin) because of the engorgement of vessels with oxygenated blood. Hyperaemia can also occur due to a fall in atmospheric pressure outside the body. The term comes.

Regulation of blood flow
Functional hyperaemia is an increase in blood flow to a tissue due to the presence of metabolites and a change in general conditions. When a tissue increases its activity, there is a well-characterized fall in the partial pressure of oxygen and pH, along with an increase in partial pressure of carbon dioxide, and a rise in temperature and the concentration of potassium ions. The mechanisms of vasodilation are predominantly local metabolites and myogenic effects. Increased metabolic activity of the tissue leads to a local increase in the extracellular concentration of such chemicals as adenosine, carbon dioxide, and lactic acid, and a decrease in oxygen and pH. These changes cause significant vasodilation. The reverse occurs when metabolic activity is slowed and these substances wash out of the tissues. The myogenic effect refers to the inherent attempt of vascular smooth muscle surrounding arterioles and arteries to maintain the tension in the wall of these blood vessels by dilating when internal pressure is reduced and to constrict when wall tension increases.

Functional hyperaemia
Functional hyperaemia, metabolic hyperaemia, arterial hyperaemia or active hyperaemia, is the increased blood flow that occurs when tissue is active.

Hyperaemia is likely mediated by the increased synthesis and/or release of vasodilatory agents during periods of heightened cellular metabolism. The increase in cellular metabolism causes the increase in vasoactive metabolic byproducts. Some of the putative vasodilatory agents (associated with metabolism) include, but are not limited to: carbon dioxide (CO2), hydrogen ion (H+), potassium (K+), adenosine (ADO), nitric oxide (NO)). These vasodilators released from the tissue act on local arterioles causing vasodilation, this causes a decrease in vascular resistance and allows an increase in blood flow to be directed toward the capillary bed of the active tissue. This increase allows the blood to serve the increased metabolic demand of the tissue and prevents a mismatch between O2-demand O2-supply. Recent research has suggested that the locally produced vasodilators may be acting in a redundant manner, in which the antagonism of one dilator, (be it pharmacologically or pathologically), may be compensated for by another in order to preserve blood flow to tissue. While the locus of blood flow control (at least in skeletal muscle tissue) is widely thought to reside at the level of the arteriole, research has begun to suggest that capillary endothelial cells may be coordinators of skeletal muscle blood flow during functional hyperaemia. It is thought that vasodilators (released from active muscle fibers) can stimulate a local capillary endothelial cells which, in turn, causes the conduction of a vasodilatory signal to upstream arterioles, this then elicits arteriolar vasodilation consequently, creating a pathway of least resistance so blood flow can be precisely direct to capillaries supplying the metabolically active tissue.

Conversely, when a tissue is less metabolically active, it produces fewer metabolites which are simply washed away in blood flow.

Since most of the common nutrients in the body are converted to carbon dioxide when they are metabolized, smooth muscle around blood vessels relax in response to increased concentrations of carbon dioxide within the blood and surrounding interstitial fluid. The relaxation of this smooth muscle results in vascular dilation and increased blood flow.

Some tissues require oxygen and fuel more quickly or in greater quantities. Examples of tissues and organs that are known to have specialized mechanisms for functional hyperaemia include:
 * The brain through the neuron-dependent haemodynamic response.
 * Penile erection tissue by release of nitric oxide.

Reactive hyperaemia
Reactive hyperemia, classified under arterial hyperemia, refers to the temporary increase in blood flow to an organ that follows a short period of ischemia or ischaemia. This condition arises due to a shortage of oxygen and an accumulation of metabolic waste resulting from the ischemic episode. A common method to assess this condition, particularly in the legs, is through Buerger's test. Furthermore, reactive hyperemia is frequently associated with Raynaud's phenomenon. In this scenario, vasospasm within the blood vessels leads to ischemia, which can cause tissue necrosis. Subsequently, there is an increased blood flow to the affected area, aimed at eliminating waste products and clearing cellular debris.

Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/2005-10-10/ArbCom election

This week, the Wikipedia Signpost examines criticism of the ArbCom and the proposed reforms.

The Wikipedia Arbitration Committee has been criticized from its beginnings, and the discussion regarding reforms is ongoing.

A major criticism of the ArbCom centers around the speed and efficiency of the proceedings. The multi-step process, described in detail last week, elongates the process. A typical case takes weeks, if not months, from the time it is brought to the conclusion of the case. Often the delay in closing the case results in justice being denied for that period of time. In addition, disputes taken to the ArbCom are often aggravated during the time the ArbCom is considering the case.

Most cases, in fact, take months to conclude. The recently concluded ArbCom case involving Cool Cat, Davenbelle, and Stereotek, took exactly three months to finish. The case was first brought to the ArbCom on 5 July, 2005, and was closed on 5 October, 2005. The case is not an exception; the vast majority of arbitration cases are extended over multiple months.

Because of the length of the cases, backlogs often develop at requests for arbitration. Multiple requests are listed, but weeks often pass before the cases are either accepted or rejected. Currently, several cases have stalled at the requests page, lacking the adequate number of votes to accept or reject the case. For example, the case filed against Willmcw and SlimVirgin by Rangerdude has been listed since the middle of August, but with only three votes to accept the case, cannot move on to the evidence stage. The last vote by an Arbitrator was nearly a month ago, and no further discussion has taken place since that vote.

The backlogs at the requests page contribute to the amount of work each Arbitrator is required to do. Many have criticised the current system as being inadequate; the critics claim that the ArbCom is overworked. With disputes often skipping steps in the dispute resolution process, such as mediation and requests for comments, the ArbCom is burdened with a large number of cases. With less than ten active Arbitrators usually, the ArbCom becomes inefficient and risks "burning out" Arbitrators. The high rate of resignations or inactivity is pointed to as evidence that the workload is too high for the ArbCom.

In addition, many have criticised the twelve member Arbitration Committee, claiming that it resembles a cabal. Despite advocates of the ArbCom claiming that there is no cabal, critics point to the temporary appointments of Fennec, JayJG, and Jdforrester as proof that an "elite society" exists. The three temporary appointments were made by Jimbo after many members of the ArbCom resigned earlier this year. The three Wikipedians were not the next three in terms of the number of votes in the 2004 elections, so questions were raised by critics about the appointments. "I remember the [December 2004] election perfectly well. In fact, I myself was a candidate. If [the temporary appointments are] just about votes, why don't we have another vote? Or we should go straight down the line and appoint the next two, who were Mirv and Cecropia. I thought the idea was that uncontroversial people were supposed to be appointed as placeholders until the next election," commented Everyking. Echoing Everyking, -Ril- stated, "Jimbo Wales has publicly announced that he doesn't support democratic elections, and would rather have arbitrators that he is friends with, than those with popular support in elections. He has also, in the announcement, stated that his appointment of (temporary) arbitrators has more to do with his favouring of their judgements in preference to those that might be made by editors such as User:Mirv (the next in line in the prior election)."

However, many others supported Jimbo's decision. "The arbitration committee made a short list of people we thought would make good arbitrators (based on our previous experiences with them), and Jimbo took our recommendation and appointed arbitrators from our short list," said Raul654, in response to -Ril-'s statement. "So no, he did not appoint them because he is friends with them; as Jimbo put it so succintly, he appointed them because we told him we think they would make good arbitrators (and he trust our judgement)." Pcb21 also voiced his approval of the process, commenting that he wished "best of luck to all new arbitrators. I am sure you will all easily prove why this trust has been placed in you." In addition, Jimbo defended his actions, saying, "The fundamental job of the ArbCom is to defend the community so that we can get our work done. This is a touchy and difficult job requiring difficult judgments."

More criticism has also been voiced regarding the process and jurisdiction of the ArbCom. Currently, the ArbCom "primarily investigate(s) interpersonal disputes", according to the Arbitration policy. This effectively means that most pure content disputes are rejected by the ArbCom, though cases involving point of view pushing have been accepted recently. 172 states, "The Arbcom still focuses too much on personality instead of the merit of the edits, and too much on process instead of product."

Next week — An in-depth look at the current members of the ArbCom, and their opinions of it. Note: Reforms of the ArbCom will be written about at a later date.
