Talk:The Five S's

In my opinion, this article should definitely not be merged with kaizen since it represents a very related, but distinct concept.
 * According to the Kaizen article, the Five S's are a component of the overall Kaizen concept, and its for that reason I'm making the merge. If at some point in the future, the section expands dramatically in size, it can easily be moved out again. Saberwyn 03:19, 4 November 2005 (UTC)

Australian Geographic

Australian Geographic is a media business that produces the Australian Geographic and Australian Geographic Adventure magazine, australiangeographic.com.au and operates, either itself or business partners, Australian Geographic stores, Australian Geographic Travel and various other businesses.

Australian Geographic magazine, originally titled Dick Smith's Australian Geographic, is a bi-monthly geographical journal created by Dick Smith in 1986. The magazine focuses mainly on stories about Australia, or about Australian people in other countries. The six editions published each year are available by subscription and on newsstands. They include posters or sheet maps in each edition, as well as photographs and detailed technical illustrations.

The entire Australian Geographic magazine archive is available on its website to subscribers.

The profits earned by Australian Geographic Holdings are contributed the Australian Geographic Society which is a registered Australian Charity.

History
The Australian Geographic magazine, originally titled Dick Smith's Australian Geographic, was initially published by Australian Geographic Pty Ltd, a private company controlled by Dick Smith, the founder of Dick Smith Electronics and Dick Smith Foods. His name was removed from the title two years later. Australian Geographic Pty Ltd also operated the Australian Geographic chain of retail stores. The publication's offices were originally based in Terrey Hills north of Sydney. Smith wanted the publication to focus on accuracy by exclusively including articles that were peer-reviewed. Australian Geographic acquired rights to the Australian Encyclopaedia and published editions in 1988 and 1996. In 1995, when subscriptions totalled more than 200,000, Smith sold the business to Fairfax Media for A$41 million.

In December 1998, the business was bought out by its management.

From September 2000 to December 2001, Australian Geographic published a bimonthly science and technology magazine known as Newton Graphic Science. There were, however, only eight issues published before the magazine went permanently out of print.

In November 2006, PBL Media's ACP Magazines (now Bauer Media Group) purchased the Australian Geographic publishing division. The Australian Geographic magazine was then based at Park Street, Sydney. The editor-in-chief of Australian Geographic was Chrissie Goldrick, while the editor was John Pickrell.

In September 2007, Australian Geographic Retail, which operates an online store and retail stores selling products including Australiana, weather stations, telescopes, books and toys, was sold separately to the publication business. From 2007 to 2016 Australian Geographic Retail was owned by Myer Family Investments but after large operating losses it was sold in August 2016 to The Co-op, a retail supplier to universities. The license ended in 2019.

In 2018, the publication was sold to Blue Ant Media. Blue Ant Media subsequently sold all its Australian businesses to RACAT Group, including Australian Geographic and the Sydney-based Northern Pictures.

Australian Geographic Society Awards
The Australian Geographic Society Adventure Award has been awarded since 1987 and is Australia's longest-running award for adventure. It is judged on merit and therefore not all of the categories are awarded annually. The award ceremony, attended in 2018 by the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, is a celebration of achievement and is not a competition. The award is given in five categories – Lifetime of Adventure, Lifetime of Conservation, Adventurer of the Year, Conservationist of the Year, Spirit of Adventure, Young Adventurer of the Year and Young Conservationist of the Year.

Talk:Vajacki marš

[Untitled]
If the government went into exile in early 1919 (the date given for the end of the Belarusian National Republic in the Wiki article on the BNR), how can this anthem be the anthem of the republic if it was published in 1919, presumably after the fall of the BNR? --Canuckguy 22:44, 10 October 2005 (UTC)
 * The leadership of BNR was in exile at the moment of publication of anthem. But it didn't stop to approve the anthem. --Yaraslau Zubrytski (talk) 17:16, 22 March 2015 (UTC)

Ana Paula Connelly

Ana Paula Rodrigues Connelly Henkel (born 13 February 1972, in Lavras, Minas Gerais), more commonly known as Ana Paula, is a retired female volleyball player and journalist from Brazil who represented her native country at four Summer Olympics: in volleyball in 1992 and 1996, and in beach volleyball in 2004 and 2008. With Brazil women's national volleyball team, she won three World Grand Prix editions and got medals in various tournaments, including the 1996 Olympics in the United States and the 1994 FIVB World Championship in Japan. On the beach, she won the FIVB Beach Volleyball World Tour in 2003 (alongside Sandra Pires) and 2008 (with Shelda Bede).

Personal life
After retiring from volleyball in 2010, Paula moved to Los Angeles, California, where she majored in architecture at UCLA and is now studying to get a master's degree in political science. Noted for her conservative views, she had a column in newspaper O Estado de S. Paulo and joined news station Jovem Pan.

Paula has been married three times, first to basketballer Jeffty Connelly from 1994 to 1998, and then to volleyball coach Marcus Miranda, with whom she had a son. Since 2010, she has been married to attorney and retired beach volleyballer Carl Henkel. She was considering a fifth Olympic appearance in 2012, but retired as she was developing panic disorder and started resenting being too absent for her son.

Wikipedia:Requests for mediation/Archive 19

=== Copyright Infringement/Privacy Laws/Administrator Abuse 67.177.35.25 vs. Fvw, Pgk, Exabit, Kebron, and Lulu_of_the_Lotus-Eaters ===

Administrator Fvw and the users listed above have been engaging in abuse of another user, Gadugi. Gadugi is currently blocked from the site by Fvw. I am his wife and he asked me to post this request here due to continued administrative abuse by user Fvw reverting edits and enforcing the behavior of the named users. These users have been posting false information about Mr. Merkey at page Jeffrey_Vernon_Merkey, and in fact, they created the page solely for the purpose of using wikipedia as a platform for libel and personal attacks of Mr. Merkey. They have also taken Mr. Merkey's copyrighted content from his website merkeylaw.com and posted it to this site and are linking to illegal mirrors of the content on the internet which are in the UK and distriuting Mr. Merkey's copyrighted materials from this site. Mr. Merkey has been harrassed by these people for almost a year on various websites, and he believes them to be, Alan P. Petrofsky, Simon G. Best, Andre Hedrick, Russ Mossman, Rik Van Reil, and other associates of Linus Torvalds of the Linux Community. These users also posted a notice linking Mr. Merkey to his anonymous identity Gadugi which violates wikipedia policies. Mr. Merkey asks that his copyrighted materials and links to them be removed from this site and the notice disclosing his identity be removed from the site as it violates US privacy laws and he did not give wikipedia permission to disclose his identity. Mr. Merkey also asks that the page Jeffrey_Vernon_Merkey be deleted from this website as it changes every 5 minutes and is clearly just some sort of platform for internet libel, harassment, and stalking. Were the article accurate, Mr. Merkey would not object, but the article is simply propoganda for the Linux Community, and this clearly does not fall within wikipedias mission to bring and provide accurate content to the world.

 * Hello Mr. Merkey's wife who refers to him as Mr. Merkey. If you want the page deleted, nominate it at AfD. If this AfD fails (or if you have, and it did) then its because the community chooses it to stay. We do not like legal threats, not even in a court of law in Trenton, New Jersey. This is definitely not something to mediate over. In fact, I support the block, and I think all the other mediators do too. This is pretty frivolous and I doubt any parties would agree to mediation. You should list this at the arbcom, where chances are they'll reject it. Don't make this another Ashida Kim. Mediation is not the right place to take this. R  e  dwolf24  (talk) 20:06, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

Status: Rejected

Jack Sarfatti and various admins
The object of this article created an account to dispute Wikipedia's description of him but then got blocked - and his sockpuppets got blocked too. I read about the fuss in wikien-l and called the guy on the phone. Uncle Ed 17:20, 12 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Jack was blocked previously for legal threats and sending rude emails to several admins, including sending one to me apparently cursing the community. If he can behave in the future then this could be settled. -- Phroziac ( talk )[[Image:Flag_of_Phyzech_Republic.svg|25px]] 17:25, 12 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Ed, contact the juriwiki-l about this. The legal team would best be aware of any discussion you might have with Sarfatti. Thanks. Anthere

I sent only a test message, because I'm not a jurywiki-l member. Please let them know I'm trying to get in touch with them. Uncle Ed 18:21, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

So when did you call him exactly? Just last night, he sent harassing, threatening emails to me and several other people in the academic field in which I work (some of whom have never edited Wikipedia). He has apparently done this before to User:Hillman. Is Sarfatti now saying he will stop this behavior? --C S 20:09, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

Dispute over Namgla
There needs to be a mediation over the article, Namgla.

User: 20:33, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

Someone keeps adding article Namgla for deletion, A lack of a website does not mean that the accociation does not exsist.

 * No, but it means that the existence of the association has not been verified, in the absence of some other indication that it exists. Robert McClenon 20:13, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

 * o_O I don't know what to do about this one, I'll move to dropped, and you can elaborate if you still want to persue mediation. R  e  dwolf24  (talk—How's my driving?)

Gadugi and the Jeffrey_Vernon_Merkey page
I need a mediator to review the links to the merkeylaw mirror sites contained in this page. This article is about me so its inappropriate for me to edit the article or post tags. I have tried arbcom as well, but I had to withdraw and back away from the legal issues which I have done. I am now trying to be a "good Jeff" and play nice with the rules. I ask for a mediator to review "fair use" guidelines and determine whether or not the links should be removed. I have posted comments about the links to offsite copyrighted materials to Talk:Jeffrey_Vernon_Merkey. I would prefer the links be removed as they appear to not conform to WP policies about fair use, but since the article is about me, I am hardly a disinterested or impartial party. Can someone review this for me and let me know if this does or does not confirm to WP policies. If I am wrong, then I am wrong, I just need an impartial person to look at this and then I'll shut up about it.

Thanks

Gadugi 21:34, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Thanks Merkey for actually being a bit more mature and filing a decent RfM, I'll look who to assign this to as soon as I'm done moving stuff aroud. R  e  dwolf24  (talk—How's my driving?) 23:38, 12 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Ah, see Mediation. Specifically private investigators. Head on down to WP:RFC and file an RfC under the article section. Thanks Gadugi, R  e  dwolf24  (talk—How's my driving?) 00:05, 13 October 2005 (UTC)

User:TDC; User:Duk; User:Ed Poor vs. User:travb;  User:165.247.208.115;  User:Sasquatch
This argument started on:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winter_Soldier_Investigation

User:Ed Poor's bias
User:Ed Poor, a mediator here, was also active in the editing of Winter Soldier Investigation:

 * http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Winter_Soldier_Investigation/Archive2#Ed_Poor.27s_Additions

So since he is prejudice in this case, at your discretion, I submit that he should be withdrawn from deciding this case as a moderator. A reasonable observer would question his impartiality.

Past history
User:Cecropia set up a October_2004_protection because of User:TDC and user User:SEWilco:

"'This article and Vietnam Veterans Against the War are the subject of an edit war between one or two logged-in users (I see User:TDC and User:SEWilco) and a series of anonymous IPs, which I have good reason to suspect are the same person or coordinated persons.'"

Current confrontation
User:TDC on October 20, deleted large portions of the article. 'Starting the newest revert war.

User:TDC started the revert war.

User:TDC,User:Duk and User:165.247.208.115 then got into a revert war.

I, User:travb, then erased many of the "superfluous use of direct quotations" (the reason why User:TDC erased many of the quotes) and footnoted many of the alledged copyright violations.

User:Duk, User:TDC friend then erased ALL of the content, using the copyright violation template.

User:TDC then reported User:165.247.208.115 to the a 3RR

User:Sasquatch, who took on the 3RR alegation, decided to revert the text back to the original with a warning:

"c 21:27, 22 October 2005 (UTC)"

Text here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Winter_Soldier_Investigation#Removing_content_versus_fixing_content

User:Sasquatch is an unbiased person who has never added any content to the Winter Soldier Investigation, he was the person who assigned himself to the 3RR case that User:TDC filed.

User:Ed Poor, was invited to join this current revert war by User:Duk

Despite what User:Sasquatch had decided:

"'Alrihgt, here is my last plea. Do not remove content just because it appears to be mostly comment. Rather, use your brain, read it thouroughly and edit it.'"

After User:Sasquatch recommendation, User:Ed Poor then deleted all 9 pages, and started over from scratch. This made User:Duk happy.

I will now revert the page back to User:Sasquatch original edit, with the 9 pages entact.

Further information
Can someone lock this page once again, where User:Sasquatch left it, while this current dispute is mediated/resolved?

Please also read the 3RR allegation of User:TDC.

I have found that User:TDC has:

 * been blocked several times (at least 4 that I am aware of), for periods of 48 hours,
 * has deleted large portions of articles, and
 * has been very beligerent when administrators block him.Travb 04:01, 23 October 2005 (UTC)

Sasquatch's Note
i would hardly put Uncle Ed on a side. If anything, I think he's more neutral than me. He just got caught in the crossfire and didn't know what to do so he tried to comprimise. But I would not put myself in this mediation unless all parties feel it is absolutely nessacery. I think this dispute was started long before Edmund and Edmond (that's me) got involved. Anyways, that's just my 2 cents. Sasquatch  t|c 04:45, 23 October 2005 (UTC)

 * you misunderstand--I actually think that Uncle Ed is more apt to support the views of TDC and duk. i dont know, you know ed better than me. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Travb (talk • contribs)

Rehashed
I have completely rehashed the offending paragraphs and so there really shouldn't be a problem anymore. I will continue to monitor any problems that may arise. Sasquatch  t|c 06:35, 23 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Thank you t|c for your support of fair use. Ed also actually said he supported fair use up to "300 words", I am against any site of any politcal stripe being completly erased. I am brand new to the Winter Soldier Investigation wikisite, but the problem itself has been going on for over a year. Hopefully your continued monitoring will avoid having Winter Soldier Investigation be protected again by an administrator.

 * I agree 100% with your comments on my talk page:

 * "Rewriting is better, in my opinion, because you could have avoided all the uglinesses that just happened. Anyways, I rewrote the paragraphs there should be no problem with it not. This should have been done before all this started."

 * As mentioned before, I added a new wikiquote page and started to add footnotes to the page before Duk and TDC started putting a copyright violation on the page.

 * You are right, it really didnt have to happen this way.--Travb 15:47, 23 October 2005 (UTC)

Talk:Bob Seger

Brand New Morning
Just curious if it would be acceptable to add this statement in the album information for the abovementioned album: "Like Noah, it's unlikely this album will see a reissue.  A rumor has circulated that Seger was so dissatisfied with the record that he dug a hole with a bulldozer and simply buried a large quantity of unsold copies." ... I may be able to scare up a reference for the comment, I've forgotten if it included mention of a location where this was done (it would sound better to say "...a hole on a farm in Michigan..."). Pontiac59 (talk) 08:48, 21 May 2010 (UTC)

What Did He Do about the Draft?
Given his age, Seger was of prime draft age for Vietnam. The draft and Vietnam were the Number One issue for people his age, and no other issue was even close. But this article simply ignores the context and history of the era when Seger was young, and neglects to say anything about how Seger dealt with the draft and the war. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.152.216.213 (talk) 02:23, 4 March 2020 (UTC)

Old Time Rock

Old Rythym Section. [20:18, 26 October 2005 Snr Chris]

It was written by George Jackson and Thomas Jones.Vonbontee (talk) 15:10, 25 July 2009 (UTC)

I've read comments that Seger rewrote portions of the song when he recorded it, but left the credits to the original writers, which is why it's been used in so many places where Seger retained control over his other work and did not allow it to be used in films or commercials. Pontiac59 (talk) 08:50, 21 May 2010 (UTC)

Error in the link

Bob Saget Vs. Bob Seger
POV: I having made the mistake, at Waffle House, between the two find that my addition to the article was legitimate. Their names being so close cause a general confusion between these two great and popular artists.

Full House
Did Bob record Beautiful Loser before or after Full House? Flagg 29 [21:35, 4 October 2006 ]

Sales
What about record-sales of Bob Seger in the U.S.? Especially of the newer ones since the beginning of the Nielsen Soundscan era. Can you tell? [10:49, 25 October 2006 212.7.174.107]

 * There is a website someplace where sales-obsessed wikipedians get each week's soundscan album figures, but I don't know what it is.  Wasted Time R 12:47, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

Turn the Page
I don't see any mention of 'Turn the Page' in this article. It seems to also be one of his most popular works, not to mention come-back popularity with the cover by Metallica. Which era was it written in? Which album was it on? etc... [16:19, 14 November 2006 134.67.6.11]

 * It's there, towards the end of the 'Regional favorite' section, and it's linked to the article on the song itself.  Wasted Time R 19:32, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

Fire Down Below
As a native Detroit-er myself one of my favorite Seger songs is Fire Down Below. There was no mention of this song in the Seger bio, why not? And how his song rank in Seger's list of hits?--67.150.237.145 17:13, 21 January 2007 (UTC)--67.150.237.145 17:13, 21 January 2007 (UTC)--67.150.237.145 17:13, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

"2+2=4.90684325"
"2+2=4.90684325": Is that really the name of a song (album?) because at the end where they are all listed, there is "2+2=?". Did someone change the question mark to a number? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 134.129.56.245 (talk) 05:47, 5 February 2007 (UTC).

New Album?
Does anyone know anything about the (rumored) new album Seger might do? I've heard some things about it - one being a song called "Outland" is on it - but not much. Anyone have any more info? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.24.61.93 (talk) 00:44, 22 November 2007 (UTC)

English
This needs to be rewritten. The grammar is poor and it's written like Bob Seger For Dummies. •Jim 62 sch• dissera! 00:19, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

Silver Bullet Band
There is a contradiction in the article. One place it says he put the band together in 1973 and another place he did it in 1974. Does anybody know the correct year?--Mycomp (talk) 14:50, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

Bob Seger's biography does not adhere to the wikipedia's Neutral Point of View Policy
Bob Seger's wikipedia article was clearly written by his publicist to dispel any notions that Bob Seger has been forgotten.

Minor studio sessions are presented as evidence of his ongoing musical relevance, and I think this undermines the wikipedia's policies Neutral Point of View Policy.

75.35.111.222 (talk) 06:16, 3 December 2010 (UTC)

 * Um, no, it just reports on his current activity. Your opinion that he has been forgotten is a singular one, and not reflective of the bulk of the scholarship on this subject.  -- Jayron  32  06:27, 3 December 2010 (UTC)

Hey Jayron, thank you for writing.

I agree that Bob Seger has not been completely forgotten (who is?); but mostly forgotten seems reasonable given that Bob Seger current renown is limited.Bob Seger last hit song was over 20 years ago, most people under the age of 30 will not know of Bob Seger.

Moreover, the article list of references is incomplete; representations about Bob Seger in the “Later years: 1988-present” section do not cite any sources which is a separate criticism that speaks to neutrality as well.

06:59, 3 December 2010 (UTC)

There is lot that "most people under the age of 30 will not know" that is useful, interesting, relevant and important. Bob Seger is a giant on whose shoulders others giants now stand - Thin Lizzy, U2, Metallica, The Coors to name but a few - but then most people under the age of 20 will not know them either. That's their loss. It's our job to inform and educate those poor benighted "hethens". —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.29.40.219 (talk) 21:06, 28 January 2011 (UTC)

Incomplete list of referenced sources for Later Years-1988 to present section
Numerous repesentations about Bob Seger's activities are completely unsourced and without any citations or footnotes. Can not be verified.

Harold Darling (talk) 07:03, 3 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Not having footnotes does not mean it cannot be verified. One can pick up a copy of Born Free (Kid Rock album) and find his name in the liner notes, for example.  That's verifiable.  Likewise, though not directly cited, the RIAA (the group that certifies albums in the U.S.) has certified his 2006 album Face the Promise as platinum, see  and enter the album title in the search field.  -- Jayron  32  07:12, 3 December 2010 (UTC)

Bob Seger believes he was born in Ann Arbor, not Lincoln Heights, nor Dearborn Heights. A birth certificate should be found. I might try to do this, but not right away. Others would be wellcome to help through Intellus or yellow pages. Probably not on these resources, but might be. Need to find a legal way of finding a copy of his Birth Certificate.```` — Preceding unsigned comment added by Phildurr (talk • contribs) 14:08, 16 November 2012 (UTC) Speaking with an attorney, there might be three, or four people with similiar names. Bob Seger, I believe, was born in Ann Arbor, and not in Lincoln Park, nor Dearborn Heights. I will try and find a hard copy of his birth certificate as evidence.Phildurr (talk) 14:51, 16 November 2012 (UTC)

More about Bob's influence on Thin Lizzy
I believe Thin Lizzy backed Bob on Tour in the USA in the 1970s or 1980s, as mentioned in the 3 books on the Thin Lizzy. Surprised it is not mentioned here. They loved his music, particularly the song Rosalie which they enjoyed listening to each night. The story goes that when Bob dropped the song from his set Thin Lizzy took it up - like them its a great Irish rocker! I also believe the Thin Lizzy guitarists may have played on one of Bob's tracks - the harmony Les Paul sound is very distinctive (and played on BBC Radio 2 this week). It's an important music relationship/link, as Metallica, U2 and The Coors, for example, were in turn influenced by Thin Lizzy. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.29.40.219 (talk) 20:54, 28 January 2011 (UTC)

 * Well, then, please be our guest. Every word in this article was written by people who are not any more special than you. Since you have access to the books, please cite those books and make the necessary changes! -- Jayron  32  21:37, 28 January 2011 (UTC)

 * Thin Lizzy indeed was infatuated with him. Look up "Thin Lizzy-Rosalie" on youtube. They have indeed played this song. 99.108.198.222 (talk) 19:29, 8 February 2015 (UTC)

Hello/Correction?
Not sure how this works at all but I wiki everything! This article on Bob Seger states that, "Seger has stated that the first musicians "that really got to me" were Little Richard and Elvis Presley.[4] Just previous to reading Bob Seger's Wiki entry I had watched a video clip of a TV interview from December 16, 1976, Channel WUTR-TV, Utica, NY where he says and I quote, "Never really was a big fan of Elvis except for his early recordings like Houndog. The hard ones." He tells the interviewer that his 1st & probably biggest influence is James Brown. And of course being from Detroit, Motown, Chuck Berry & Little Richard.

So I think that Elvis should be removed as an influence from this article.

This discrepancy popped out at me. I hope I am being courteous. If not someone will probably tell me. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lakaler (talk • contribs) 00:34, 8 January 2012 (UTC)

Flatulence?
In the personal history section there is an uncited assertion that Mr. Seger has struggled with flatulence throughout his life. I'm guessing that this is a joke that should be removed. If not, a citation would strengthen this point. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 107.195.14.115 (talk) 14:07, 28 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Many mrn suffer from fltulance. Indeed, when my dynamic IP landed on 107.195.14.115, I had great volumes of flatulance. I have been able to gain a private office and company car due to my uncontrolable flatulance. Gas can be a good thing. 2601:8:9180:604:219:D1FF:FEA8:25F0 (talk) 02:00, 5 November 2014 (UTC)

Relative chart position needs clarification
I have an issue with the logic here:

"... 'Shame on the Moon'. It was the biggest hit of the Silver Bullet Band's entire career, hitting #1 on the Adult Contemporary chart and holding at #2 for four consecutive weeks - behind Patti Austin and James Ingram's 'Baby, Come to Me' and Michael Jackson's 'Billie Jean' "

How is it possible to be at #1 or #2 and still be behind two other songs? Wouldn't that make you #3? --Jelsova (talk) 15:52, 15 April 2014 (UTC)

 * You need to keep in mind that songs do not "have" to move one chart position at a time. It is quite possible that "Billie Jean" or "Baby, Come to Me" jumped two (or more) positions when either were at #3 (or lower) with Seger remaining at #2. I get the why behind your question as the sentence is a bit "clumsy". Chart position is determined by sales which can be volatile at times causing songs to move several positions forward or backward or not at all on a weekly basis.THX1136 (talk) 02:23, 29 December 2019 (UTC)

Songs of the Century
The article says "His iconic recording of 'Old Time Rock and Roll' was named one of the Songs of the Century in 2001," but it is not on the linked list of songs. Delete the sentence? Languagehat (talk) 16:03, 25 April 2015 (UTC)

Earth System Research Laboratories

The Earth System Research Laboratories (ESRL) is an alliance of four NOAA scientific labs, all located in the David Skaggs Research Center on the Department of Commerce campus in Boulder, Colorado. Organized under NOAA's Office of Oceanic and Atmospheric Research, ESRL's main goal is to advance the scientific understanding of weather, climate, air quality, water resources, and other Earth system components.

The four labs’ intersecting missions have generated a legacy of accomplishment over the past 50 years. Backed by scientists from cooperative research institutes at the University of Colorado and Colorado State University, ESRL has been an engine of scientific discovery, producing environmental models and products, along with forecasting and decision-support tools to protect life and safety, and support commerce at local to global scales.

Together with its university partners and the nearby National Center for Atmospheric Research, ESRL has helped Boulder earn a reputation as one of the premier global centers for atmospheric research.

Laboratories
The Chemical Sciences Laboratory (CSL) advances scientific understanding of the chemical and physical processes that affect Earth's atmospheric composition and climate.

The Global Monitoring Laboratory (GML) researches greenhouse gas and carbon cycle feedbacks, changes in clouds, aerosols, and surface radiation, and the recovery of stratospheric ozone.

The Global Systems Laboratory (GSL) develops next-generation weather forecast models, decision support tools, visualization systems, and uses high-performance computing technology to support a Weather-Ready Nation.

The Physical Sciences Laboratory (PSL) conducts weather, climate, and hydrologic research to effectively anticipate and respond to the challenges of hydrologic extremes.

History
On October 1, 2005, NOAA's Aeronomy Laboratory, Climate Diagnostics Center, Climate Monitoring and Diagnostics Laboratory, Environmental Technology Laboratory, and Forecast Systems Laboratory were merged into four divisions of the newly formed Earth System Research Laboratory. These were the Chemical Sciences Division, Global Monitoring Division, Global Systems Division, and Physical Sciences Division.

On April 2, 2020, NOAA designated the four divisions of the Earth System Research Laboratory in Boulder as full laboratories within the NOAA Oceanic and Atmospheric Research line office to meet recent shifts in mission-essential priorities. The four laboratories retained their core research missions and continue to collaborate closely with each other and other NOAA Research laboratories to improve understanding and ability to predict changes in Earth's atmosphere, climate, and weather.

1995 SEA Games

The 1995 Southeast Asian Games, officially known as the 18th Southeast Asian Games, Chiang Mai, 1995 (การแข่งขันกีฬาซีเกมส์ ครั้งที่ 18 เชียงใหม่ 1995), was a Southeast Asian multi-sport event held in Chiang Mai, Thailand from 9 to 17 December 1995. It was the first time that a non-capital city hosted the biennial sports event. Chiang Mai is the second Thai city to host the Southeast Asian Games after Bangkok. The games were opened and closed by Vajiralongkorn, the then-Crown Prince of Thailand. With the return of Cambodia, all ten members of the federation were present to compete in the SEA Games for the first time.

This was the fifth time that Thailand hosted the games. The country had previously staged the games in 1959, 1967, 1975, and 1985, all of which were held in Bangkok. Around 3,262 athletes from 10 participating nations participated at the games, which featured 28 sports.

The final medal tally was led by the hosts Thailand, followed by Indonesia and the Philippines.

Development and preparation
The Chiang Mai SEA Games Organising Committee (CMSOC) was formed to oversee the staging of the games.

Venues
The 18th Southeast Asian Games had 23 venues for the games, 19 in Chiang Mai, 3 in Chonburi and 1 in Lamphun.

Logo
The logo of the 1995 Southeast Asian Games is an image of a Bo Sang umbrella which symbolises Chiang Mai as the host of the Southeast Asian Games. The image of the umbrella also resembles a running athlete, which represents the courage and determination of the games participating athletes and the participating athletes themselves. The colours of the umbrella blue, yellow, red, black and green are colours of the Olympic movement and represents the Olympic and sportsmanship spirit of the participating athletes. The 6-ring chain, the logo of the Southeast Asian Games Federation, represents the six founding nations of the Southeast Asian Games and the Southeast Asian Games itself.

Mascot
The mascot of the 1995 Southeast Asian Games is a Siamese cat named Sawasdee (สวัสดี) who takes a Bo Sang umbrella with him. The Siamese cat is one of the several varieties of cat native to Thailand. As a mascot, its name Sawasdee is a word often spoken in Thai as a greeting or farewell in Thailand. Its umbrella represents Chiang Mai province, Thailand, host of the 1995 Southeast Asian Games. One of its villages, the Bo Sang Village of Chiang Mai province, is famed throughout Thailand for the making of exquisitely hand made and painted umbrellas.

Arrington Dixon

Arrington Dixon is an American politician who is a former Chair and Member of the Council of the District of Columbia of Washington, D.C.

Early years
Dixon was born in Anacostia in Washington, D.C., to James and Sally Dixon.

1975–1979
In November 1974, Dixon was chosen to represent Ward 4 when voters elected the first members of the Council of the District of Columbia, the legislature of the city's new home rule government. The initial term for the Ward 4 seat, like those for half the council seats, was only 2 years, to provide for staggered council elections in later years, but in 1976 Dixon was reelected to a full four-year term.

1979–1983
In 1978, council chairman Sterling Tucker ran for mayor rather than seeking reelection. Dixon, who was halfway through his Ward 4 term, decided to run for Chair of the Council and won. He served 4 years. In 1982, Dixon ran for re-election, but he was defeated in the Democratic primary by David A. Clarke.

Dixon was later appointed by Mayor Marion Barry to serve as a public member of the National Capital Planning Commission.

1997
More than a decade later, Dixon returned to the council as an at-large member for a few months in 1997 when he was chosen in August by the District of Columbia Democratic State Committee to replace Linda Cropp, who had vacated her at-large seat to become chairman. The appointment lasted only until a December special election, in which he was defeated by then-Republican David Catania. Catania was sworn in on December 15, 1997.

Personal life
In 1966, he married Sharon Pratt Kelly, and they had daughters Aimee and Drew. His daughters were born in 1968 and 1970. The couple divorced in 1982 after sixteen years of marriage.

Kostiantynivka

Kostiantynivka (Костянтинівка, ; Константиновка) is an industrial city in Donetsk Oblast, eastern Ukraine. It is situated on the Kryvyi Torets river. In the Soviet era it developed into a major centre for the production of iron, zinc, steel, and glass. Administratively, it is incorporated as a city of oblast significance. It was the administrative center of the Kostiantynivka Raion until 2020, although it did not belong to it. After the raion was abolished, it was incorporated into the Kramatorsk Raion. Its population is approximately

History
In 1870 Kostiantynivka was founded by a landowner named Nomikossov, who built the settlement in honor of his oldest son, Kostiantyn. At the beginning of the 20th century, Kostiantynivka developed into an industrial settlement, and it was later raised to the rank of an urban settlement (in 1926). In 1932 Kostyantynivka was granted municipal rights.

During World War II, the Germans operated a forced labour camp in the town.

During the Russo-Ukrainian War, the town was captured in mid-April 2014 by pro-Russian separatists. The city was eventually retaken by Ukrainian forces on 7 July 2014, along with Druzhkivka, shortly after the nearby cities of Sloviansk and Kramatorsk. In September 2014, refugees extensively arrived in the town from occupied territories. People came to buy cheaper essential products, as well as to arrange pensions and social benefits in the municipal institutions. At the same time, the mechanism of receiving benefits and social payments for migrants at a new place of residence was simplified. The city began to operate a refugee housing center.

2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine
Beginning on 24 February the Russians began their invasion of Ukraine. In the first few hours of the war, Kostiantynivka was struck by missiles targeting a local military base. The area was occasionally shelled and bombarded during Russia's "phase one" of its invasion. Kostiantynivka saw more bombardment in the "second phase" of the war, in which the Russians focused their attack on eastern Ukraine. Kostiantynivka saw heavy shelling and missile attacks, targeting fuel depots and power plants. As it was near the frontlines, residents of the city could hear shelling and fighting daily. The city has remained under Ukrainian control, but has suffered from Russian strikes.

Russia reported on 20 March 2022 that Kostiantynivka was hit by a Russian hypersonic Kh-47M2 Kinzhal missile, hitting a fuel depot and causing a fire in the city. This was confirmed by U.S. president Joe Biden.

Kostiantynivka was shelled by the Russian Armed Forces on 17 September 2022, causing five civilian injuries/deaths and much destruction in the city.

At least five civilians were killed on 24 March 2023, when a missile fired from an S-300 anti-aircraft system hit a local so-called "invincibility point"—a humanitarian support center—in Kostiantynivka.

On 6 September 2023, it was reported that a missile strike on an open market, in the middle of the day, killed 17 civilians, including a child, and injured at least 32. However, the New York Times later reported that "evidence strongly suggests the catastrophic strike was the result of an errant Ukrainian air defense missile fired by a Buk launch system".

On 25 February 2024, Russian bombing destroyed central railway station of Kostiantynivka and damaged several dozen other buildings.

Transport
Kostiantynivka formerly had a tram network, which towards the end of its service suffered from increasingly disrupted traffic. The tram system first opened in 1931, closed in 2004 and reopened in 2005. In World War II, the tram infrastructure was destroyed by the retreating Wehrmacht in 1943 and restored in 1944. During German occupation, trams operated in coupled pairs, with one carriage for civilians and the other for soldiers. In 2012, 150 meters of the overhead network were stolen. For a while, the tram company had been unprofitable and thus threatened the closure of route 3. It remained open until 2014, due to complaints sent to the city office, though it would nonetheless close in 2014 due to the 'poor condition of the northern overpass'. From 2015 on, only one car was operable, with all others lacking bogies. In the same year, tram traffic closed, due to construction work on the Severnyi railway viaduct, closing the final route 4. However, work on the viaduct never occurred, and tram traffic was restored using only 1 car on route 4. When 2 km of contact was stolen around 26 December 2016, the operator could not afford to repair the stolen infrastructure, so it was closed on 29 March 2018.

Demographics
As of the Ukrainian Census of 2001:

 * Ethnicity
 * Ukrainians: 59.3%
 * Russians: 37.7%
 * Armenians: 1.0%

KEPA

Kepa is a service base for nongovernmental organizations in Finland interested in development work and global issues. It is a politically and ideologically independent organization that operates with funding from the Ministry for Foreign Affairs of Finland. Kepa acts as a mouthpiece of Finnish development NGOs, hosts events such as the World Village Festival and publishes the Maailman Kuvalehti magazine. Kepa operated also the Etvo programme (Etelän vapaaehtoisohjelma meaning "The Volunteer Programme of South"). It was discontinued in 2016 following cuts to the Finnish development aid, which is the main source of Kepa's funding.

Kepa's head office is in Helsinki. It also has offices in Tanzania and Mozambique.

The name Kepa is originally an acronym from Kehitysyhteistyön palvelukeskus (Service Centre for Development Cooperation), but the organization officially re-branded itself as Kepa in 2012. In 2018, Kepa will merge with another Finnish umbrella organization, Kehys. The new organization will assume a new name and brand.

Talk:Religion in Israel

The Gospel
The article mentions that there has been friction between Christian groups and the government. Is this refering to the ban on preaching the Gospel, since this is a rumour that is widespread. Is this true?

I belive this to be true, but the only webpages I could find were pages of the "we fight against Jewish supremacism" sort. Although these pages are sometimes correct, I think most Wikipedians discount them as beeing anti-semitic. Personally I find it difficult to find correct information about Jews and Israel.

The section on "Relative sizes of the religious communities in Israel" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religion_in_Israel#Relative_sizes_of_the_religious_communities_in_Israel) contains multiple paragraphs that are completely unrelated to the section (starting from "Israel's third world war with Palestine." to "Guterres said. - Reuters") that seem to have been copy-pasted from a news report. They are also inadequately written for a Wikipedia article, since it reads: "al criticism with yesterday's announcement", "Jake Sullivan yesterday, said", "Benjamin Netanyahu, had yesterday discussed", "UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres yesterday also said".

New York State Canal Corporation

The New York State Canal Corporation is a New York State public-benefit corporation responsible for the oversight, administration and maintenance of the New York State Canal System, which consists of the Erie Canal, Cayuga–Seneca Canal, Oswego Canal and Champlain Canal. It is also involved with the development and maintenance of the New York State Canalway Trail and with the general development and promotion of the Erie Canal Corridor as both a tourist attraction and a working waterway. The canal system totals 524 miles in length, and includes 57 locks and 17 lift bridges. The corporation suggests that canal boat travelers reserve 5 days to traverse the Erie Canal portion of the system.

Organization
The current director of the New York State Canal Corporation is Brian Stratton, who was appointed to the position by Governor Andrew Cuomo in the Spring of 2011. Executive officers report to a 7-member board of directors. For 2018, the board approved an expenditures budget of $82 million for operations and maintenance, $40 million for capital expenditures, and $3 million for Canal Development Fund expenses.

In 2012, the New York State Canal Corporation employed 529 people, consisting of 458 full-time employees and 78 seasonal workers. Its spending accounted for about 10 percent of the New York State Thruway's total $1.1 billion in annual spending. In 2012, the Canal Corp.’s operating budget was $55.7 million and its capital budget was $51.4 million. An August 2012 report by state Comptroller Thomas DiNapoli said the canal system "contributed to the deterioration of the Authority's financial condition over the past decade", even as canal traffic had dropped nearly one-third since the period immediately before the Thruway Authority assumed control.

Ownership changes
In May 2006, Governor George Pataki proposed recreating the New York State Canal Corporation by 2010 as an independent agency no longer under the oversight of the New York State Thruway. This did not come to pass. The New York Power Authority has been financially responsible for the Canal Corporation since April 2016 and has owned it since January 1, 2017.

Controversy
In 2004, it was discovered that officials of the Canal Corporation had attempted to sell private development rights to large stretches of the Old Erie Canal to a single developer for a mere $30,000, far less than the land was worth on the open market. After an investigation by Syracuse's Post-Standard newspaper and much public criticism, governor George Pataki later quietly canceled the deal.
