Naran (film)

Naran is a 2005 Indian Malayalam-language action thriller film directed by Joshiy and written by Ranjan Pramod. The film tells the story of Mullankolli Velayudhan (Mohanlal), an innocent homeless ruffian who exercise control over the Mullankolli village to maintain order with his code of conduct. Produced by Antony Perumbavoor through Aashirvad Cinemas, it also features Madhu, Siddique, Bhavana, Innocent, Jagathy Sreekumar, Devayani, Mamukoya, and Maniyanpilla Raju in supporting roles.

The film features original songs composed by Deepak Dev and background score by Ouseppachan. Naran was released in Kerala on 3 September 2005 prior to Onam. Upon release the film was a commercial success, becoming one of the top grossing films of the year.

Plot
Mullankolli is a rustic remote village in Wayanad district of northern Kerala. Velayudhan is an orphan whose pregnant mother had come floating during heavy floods years ago, and was brought up by a kind and a feudal landlord named Puthusseri Valiya Nambiar. Velayudhan grows up into a kind-hearted local goon who hates injustice and has set his own rules for the villagers who are scared of him including local moneylender and panchayat's member Kurup and Valiya Nambiar's son-in-law Gopinath Nambiar, who wants to rule over the village in his own way. When Velayudhan plants a stick or rod, which means that it has his stamp of authority. The only men whom he listens are Valiya Nambiar and Kelappan, who looked after him as a child.

The villagers including Kurup and Gopinathan regularly bring goons from outside the village to fight Velayudhan but to no avail. Velayudham meets three women in his life - a prostitute Kunnummel Shantha, his childhood crush Janaki and Kelappan's daughter Leela. Janaki's husband Krishnan, who runs a PDS store and is a heavy drinker, hates Velayudhan as he was Janaki's childhood crush. Gopinathan has his eyes over Janaki as well and Velayudhan despite knowing Gopi's true colors doesn't harm him solely due to his respect towards Gopi's wife Sunanda and Valiya Nambiar's daughter. During the annual temple festival in the village, Kurupp accepts donations from most of the villagers, where he hires goons from Mattanchery to fight Velayudhan.

Just before their fight, Gopi gives them extra payment to stab Velayudhan in the dark. However all their efforts are in vain and all of them are beaten up by Velayudhan shortly before Velayudhan gets arrested by the police for the same. Later the SI lets him free after learning of his innocence from an elderly constable. Soon, the monsoon season arrives and Velayudhan gets engaged in his routine adventure of getting hold of articles (including large tree trunks) which come flowing with the stream water as part of the floods. Assisted by Kelappan and boat man Ahmed, Velayudhan is trying to get hold of a fast-flowing tree log when Hamsa, a goon hired by Gopi, cuts off the hanging rope tied to a tree using which Velayudhan balances himself and also gets hold of objects.

However Velayudhan spots him shortly where he manages to get hold of his target log and ties it to an adjacent tree. Velayudhan thrashes Hamsa and breaks his teeth in front of Gopi and Kurup to issue them a warning. Velayudhan is planning to bring in a marriage proposal for Leela. Kelappan's wife Narayani who hated Velayudhan starts treating him well when she realises his love for the family. However, the proposal fails as Gopi's men spread rumour that Velayudhan has illicit relationships with Kelappan's daughters, a lie invented by Gopi via Kurup. Velayudhan is angered and beats up Gopi's men for creating troubles to Kelappan and his family. However, Kelappan asks Velayudhan to stop his act and even slaps him in public before asking him to get out of his house forever.

A heartbroken Velayudhan goes to Gopi's house and condemns his cowardly ways. Realising his innocence, Valiya Nambiar meets him and tells him to marry Leela as according to him that is the only way to save her name. Valiya Nambiar tells Kelappan about Velayudhan's innocence. However, Leela dislikes Velayudhan and decides to commit suicide to escape from the marriage. While attempting to jump off from a cliff, she is stopped by Velayudhan who assures that he isn't interested in marrying her. The next day, Valiya Nambiar makes Velayudhan to promise Leela and Kelappan that he will never drink or beat anyone again. That night, Velayudhan narrates about his embarrassing childhood and also his love for Janaki to Ahmed, who feels sorry for him and gives him shelter. However, the next morning Ahmed arrives to see Velayudhan beaten up badly in his sleep, by the village goons.

Ahmed informs this to Valiya Nambiar, who feels guilty as Velayudhan kept his promise of not beating anyone. Some of the villagers even sympathize with Velayudhan after the incident. In the absence of Velayudhan, goons causes mayhem in the village and everyone realises how much Velayudhan's absence has affected the village. Later, Gopi asks his henchman Keeri Raghavan to provide necessary food items to Janaki an attempt to earn her respect. Despite Janaki turning the offer down, Krishnan (who is regretful of his actions towards his wife) confronts Keeri at the local toddy shop and gets beaten up by Keeri. In the chaos, Krishnan is inadvertently stabbed by Keeri using a glass bottle and flees after understanding the danger. Gopi shelters Keeri at his home, but also cunningly informs the police about his hideout thereby getting him arrested.

Later, Gopi also gets hold of documents under the chit fund scheme headed by Kurup, who later understands that he has been duped but can't do anything to resist. Valiya Nambiar understands Gopi's intentions and apologises to Velayudhan for making him promise that he won't beat anyone. However, the next day, Valiya Nambiar dies apparently due to a heart attack and his death is mourned by the entire village, including Velayudhan. Hamsa provokes him into fixing a fight after his limbs rejuvenate. However, Velayudhan plants his walking stick and silences Hamsa. The entire village wants Velayudhan back in power. Despite heavy rains in the village, Velayudhan plans to carry out his usual river adventure with bandaged limbs much to the fear of Ahmed and Kelappan and sets out to get hold of a log in the river, where he somehow ties himself after which Kelappan and Ahmed try to pull him towards the bank.

The entire village and even Kurup gets hold of the rope enthusiastically and Velayudhan walks to the shore as the log gets pulled by the group of people. That night, Janaki and her daughter are confronted by Gopi, who lusts after her. In the following struggle, Janaki and the girl jumps into their well and Gopi escapes. In the morning, the cops arrives while Kurup tells Velayudhan that Gopi is responsible and also reveals that he is also the one who killed Valiya Nambiar. Velayudhan confronts Hamsa, and breaks his promise with a smile before beating up Hamsa while Kurup reveals to the villagers that Valiya Nambiar was murdered by Gopi. Gopi flees in his jeep, but gets interrupted by Velayudhan and the villagers. After a long fight, Velayudhan drowns Gopi in the river which kills him, thereby avenging the murders of Valiya Nambiar and Janaki. As the police arrives, Velayudhan hides his tears and reveals that he is too happy to see the entire Mullankolli Village present to bid farewell to him.

Production
Naran was initially the title given for a project starring Mohanlal, directed by Joshiy and written by Ranjan Pramod and a pooja ceremony was held for the film but was cancelled before beginning filming. Joshiy adapted the title of that film. The film is set in a village in a hilly area. It was shot at Hogenakkal village in karnataka and Tamil Nadu. Mohanlal performed stunt scenes in the river in Hogenekkal. One day, Mohanlal spend an entire day in the river. It was after filming that the crew was informed that there was a crocodile in it.

Music
The film features original songs composed by Deepak Dev, lyrics were by Kaithapram Damodaran. The soundtrack album was released on 1 July 2007 by Manorama Music. Before that, a single, Ponnaryan, was released on 1 January 2005, composed by Sunny Joseph, written by O. N. V. Kurup and sung by K. J. Yesudas. The film was scored by Ouseppachan. The songs "Omal Kanmani" (Naran) and "Velmuruka" became trendsetters upon release. "Velmuruka" was choreographed by Prasanna. The song is often played on almost every Malayali occasion and it is frequently performed in local Ganamela in Kerala.

Release
Naran was released on 3 September 2005 prior to the Onam festival week in Kerala.

Box office
Naran was a commercial success. It was the top grosser among the Onam releases at Kerala box office, outperforming Chanthupottu and Nerariyan CBI. Including print and publicity, the film was reportedly made on a budget of ₹2.55 crore. The film had a huge opening day gross all over Kerala and Bangalore. The film had a 100 percent attendance in Kairali and Apsara theatres in Kozhikode. In Trivandrum, the police had to conduct mild lathi charge to disperse the crowd that turned violent in front of Sreekumar and Sreevisakh theatres. From the first two weeks itself, it collected a distributor's share of ₹1.69 crore and netted ₹2.70 Crore from the Kerala box office. Naran was one of the highest-grossing Malayalam films of the year. It ran for 100 days in major releasing centers. It was the third highest grosser of the year after Rajamanikyam and Udayananu Tharam.

Critical reception
Sify stated the film is a "paisa vasool" and wrote that "veteran director and his script writer Ranjan Pramod uses Mohanlal's larger-than-life image and blends it with the milieu, successfully in this action adventure film laced with sentiments. It is old wine in a new tetra pack with hardly any story or twists but the great man simply lights up the screen with his sheer presence." Franco Davis of Nowrunning wrote, "Mohanlal's performance is close to being called impeccable. The naturalness, for which he is famous for, comes through in trickles and flows. But the actor should take care about his ever-growing, rotund frame. He looks very bulky in the vest with a protruding paunch and tattooed biceps." Varnachithram wrote: "What makes this movie is interesting is Ranjan Pramod's script. Remember the movie Meesha Madhavan in which he bought into life a village called Chekku in which the hero was a thief, but had a heart of gold? Mullamkolli is a similar village with a similarly flawed hero."

WZRC

WZRC, known on-air as "AM1480", is a radio station licensed to New York, New York. The station is owned by Multicultural Broadcasting and airs Cantonese programming. It is one of two Cantonese radio stations serving the New York metropolitan area, the other is Chung Wah Chinese Broadcasting Company. WZRC's transmitting facility is located in Ridgefield Park, New Jersey.

History
WZRC was first licensed on June 29, 1925, as a portable broadcasting station, with the sequentially issued call letters of WIBS, to the New Jersey National Guard, 57th Infantry Brigade, in Elizabeth, New Jersey. (Portable radio stations were installed on movable platforms such as trucks, so they could be transported to various locations.) In early 1926 ownership of the station was changed to Lieut. Thomas F. Hunter, and in mid-1927 the station was reported to be "no longer portable". In November 1927 the station's owner became the New Jersey Broadcasting Corporation, located at 80 Broad Street in Elizabeth.

On May 25, 1928, the recently formed Federal Radio Commission (FRC) issued General Order 32, which notified 164 stations, including WIBS, that "From an examination of your application for future license it does not find that public interest, convenience, or necessity would be served by granting it." However, the station successfully convinced the commission that it should remain licensed.

On November 11, 1928, the FRC implemented a sweeping reallocation of station transmitting frequencies, as part of a reorganization resulting from its General Order 40. The New York City area had a large excess of stations, and WIBS was ordered to begin timesharing on 1450 kHz with four other New Jersey stations: WNJ (Newark), WBMS (Union City),  WAAT (Jersey City) and WKBO (Jersey City). WAAT (now WNYM) was able to quickly gain permission to move to 1070 kHz, but this still left WIBS in the tenuous financial situation of reduced operating hours and revenues due to having to share its frequency with three other stations.

WHOM and the Popes (1930 - 1960)
On April 12, 1930, the station's call letters were changed to WHOM, standing for owner Harry O'Melia, operated by the New Jersey Broadcasting Company, with studios in Jersey City. At the start of 1933 WHOM was still limited to one-quarter of the airtime on its shared frequency, however during the year it was able to achieve full time operation. In April, it expanded to use of three-quarters of the hours, after the FRC refused to renew WNJ's license, and WHOM's owners purchased and silenced WKBO. A few weeks later, WBMS was acquired and shut down, giving WHOM unlimited use of its frequency. The station's format was a combination of educational programming, ethnic programming, sports, and some music. Among the personalities who broadcast on WHOM was African-American sportscaster Jocko Maxwell; by the time he joined the station in 1934, it had studios in Newark, and would later add a studio in New York.

By 1940, the station was known for mainly its foreign language programming. On March 29, 1941, WHOM moved from 1450 kHz to 1480 kHz, its location ever since, as part of the implementation of the North American Regional Broadcasting Agreement. In 1944, WHOM was sold to the Iowa Broadcasting Company. But the new parent company, better known as Cowles Broadcasting, did not own the station long. Arrangements were made to sell it to Generoso Pope, owner of the Italo-Americano Publishing Company, in late 1946. Pope finalized the acquisition, and then operated the station with a combination of news, ethnic music, and educational programs, as before. The Popes built a media empire, including: The National Enquirer, Il Progresso Italo-Americano, Il Bollettino della Sera, Il Corriere d'America, and the Philadelphia daily L'Opinione. Pope used his influence through his media empire to secure the vote of the election of President Franklin D. Roosevelt, and Harry S. Truman.

In the late 1940s, WHOM introduced a new popular music program; it featured the city's only interracial deejay team, Willie Bryant and Ray Carroll. Their WHOM program lasted until 1954, at which time the general manager decided he wanted a change; Bryant believed it was due to a complaint from a sponsor. In 1950 the station's studios moved to New York City.

1960 – 1982
In 1960, WHOM evolved to mostly Spanish programming. In 1975 the station was sold to SJR Communications along with WHOM-FM (now WINS-FM) and the call sign was changed to WJIT (Radio Jit). The format went from diversified Spanish to Spanish contemporary music. In the late 1970s WJIT was the leading salsa and merengue station on the New York dial. In 1982 the format was changed to Spanish adult contemporary and the station was sold, along with WKTU 92.3, to Infinity Broadcasting.

1982 – 1998
In 1989, Infinity decided that with a new Spanish station on 97.9 that it should move 1480 WJIT (by then known as talk station 1480 Radio America) to an English format. The Spanish format was dropped on April 30, 1990, and the station began airing a heavy metal based satellite rock format "Z Rock", under its new call-sign WZRC.

On May 27, 1993, WZRC switched to country through Transtar's "Mainstream Country" satellite-delivered service. This was short lived; a few months later, WZRC switched to Korean brokered programming. Infinity continued to own the radio station until after its merger with CBS in 1997. At that point, it owned 92.3 WXRK, 101.1 WCBS-FM, 102.7 WNEW-FM, 660 WFAN, 880 WCBS, 1010 WINS, and 1480 WZRC. While it was not required to sell WZRC, it opted to anyhow, and sold the station to Multicultural Media in 1998.

After 1998
Multicultural initially kept the Korean format, but switched to Chinese on March 1, 2001 and now in Cantonese (to complement Multicultural's Sinocast network broadcast locally on 92.3 FM subcarrier). Nowadays, in addition to its own programming, WZRC sometimes rebroadcasts other Cantonese content from KMRB radio in San Francisco, as well as from Commercial Radio Hong Kong and RTHK.

Welcome!

Adopt-A-User
Hi!

My name is Steve Baker - I'm with the Wikipedia Adopt-A-User program and I noticed that you are looking for help. I'm a fairly experienced editor (8000+ edits, two featured articles)...and most importantly, I'm a fellow car nut who spells colour with a 'u' and tyre with a 'y'. If you'd like to take me up on this offer, leave me a note on my talk page and we can take it from there. SteveBaker 13:48, 27 September 2007 (UTC)

Adoption
OK - so I've updated the templates to set up the adoption stuff.

I've been floating around on Wikipedia now for a couple of years - I've made over 8,000 edits and I've had a couple of articles on the front page (Mini and Mini Moke) - so I've run into most of the common problems several times already!

There is no formality to the process - whenever you have a problem of any kind whatever, you can drop me a message on my talk page - or if it's something VERY difficult where you don't want other Wikipedians to be able to see the conversation, you can email me at steve@sjbaker.org

I generally take a look at the 'contributions' list of my Adoptees once in a while to make sure things are going OK - but aside from that, just use me as a sounding board for ideas - or a place to come for advice - someone to have on your side in times of trouble...whatever you need.

If (after a month or two) I feel you're doing just fine without me - I'll hand out some sort of hokey graduation certificate and we're done. If at any time you can't stand me anymore - just drop me a rude note and I'll stay out of your way.

I can generally help with the mundane aspects of editing - also navigating the maze of Wikipedia guidelines and procedures - pointing out places of interest - but generally, my interests probably won't overlap yours - so the actual content that you add won't be something I can help much with...but we'll see.

From what I've seen from your recent edit history, you seem to be doing reasonable sorts of things. Have you considered signing up at Portal:Motorsport/Get_involved? There are a bunch of Wiki Projects where like-minded people get together to work on articles of a particular kind. You might also want to visit Portal:Formula_One and Portal:Motorsport - which are alternative Wikipedia front pages for those interested in those specific topics.

Let me know (via my talk page) if there is anything I can do to help. I'll come back and check up on your 'User contributions' list from time to time to see if I can spot any obvious areas where I could offer help.

SteveBaker 16:32, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

Have you considered using some vandalism templates
Hi! I was taking a look at your 'recent contributions' stuff (some fine work going on there!) - and I notice that when you revert some vandalism, you aren't going to the vandals' talk page and leaving a warning notice. There are a bunch of handy templates here: Template messages/User talk namespace that make the process fairly painless. There are two benefits to this - one is that it lets the vandal know that their work was pointless because (hopefully) it was cleaned up not long afterwards - but more importantly, if everyone does this and steadily escalates the level of warning in the template, it gives the Admins the information they need to block these people. It's not exactly crucial - and a lot of people don't bother - but just in case you didn't know it was OK to do that, I thought it worth a mention. SteveBaker 21:10, 18 October 2007 (UTC)

Some linking advice.
Hi! Your friendly local Adopt-a-user guy here! Since I hadn't heard from you for a while, I thought I'd nose around in your recent contributions. You seem to be doing pretty good work. Well done! Just about the only really minor nit I could pick is that you have a tendency to over-link. The idea is to link the first occurrence of a particular term or name - not to every one. If it's been MANY paragraphs since the first mention and the term was really only mentioned in passing the first time, then it might be worth linking the term again - but generally, once is enough. For example, in the article about The Stig - in the section about 'African Stig' you linked Jeremy Clarkson - but this was about the fifth time he'd been mentioned in the article - and the first occurrence was really enough. (I notice that someone came along and unlinked it again later). I can see the same problem in some of your football club edits too. We need to link new terms when we hit them - but if you link every thing that can be linked every time around, the article starts to get hard to read because of the rapid black/blue/black/blue colour changes. But - this is a really minor thing.

Let me know if there is anything at all I can help you with. SteveBaker 03:27, 2 November 2007 (UTC)

Adoption status.
Hi! I was just doing my routine checking-up-on-adoptees-whom-I-havn't-heard-from. It looks like you are doing some great editing work...but you havn't asked for any help on anything. Is there anything I can do to help out? Anything that needs explaining?

Note on Jimbo's page
Hi Randomjack. WP:RFA and it's associated links contains all you need to know. Happy editing! Pedro : Chat  11:26, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

 * Don't bother applying.

 * It's a bit soon in your Wiki-career to be applying for Adminship. (And writing directly to Jimbo wasn't cool, he's a busy guy and has nothing to do with creating or approving adminship.)  Whilst there is no hard and fast rule about the number of edits you need in order to qualify for adminship - here is a graph showing the probability of being accepted as an admin as a function of the number of edits you've made:

 * (You currently have less than 450 edits to your credit which puts your likelyhood of success at...oh...around 0%.)

 * So don't even think of applying until you have maybe 2000 edits under your belt. But more than that, the kinds of things they look for in admins is stuff like the amount of time you've spent ironing out difficulties with other users or arguing over policy - the number of times you've had to explain Wiki policies to other users...your experience with using and creating categories and templates - the degree to which you've smoothed things out with abusive editors...that kind of thing.

 * They'll take a look at your "User contributions" and discover that you have never, not even once, done any  of those things and reject your request without further consideration. Keep up the good work - and try again in a year or two!

C&P move
Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you recently copied the contents of a page and pasted it into another with a different name. This is what we call a "cut and paste move", and it is very undesirable because it splits the article's history, which is needed for attribution and is helpful in many other ways. The mechanism we use for renaming an article is to move it to a new name which both preserves the page's history and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. In most cases, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page. If there is an article that you cannot move yourself by this process, follow the instructions at Requested moves to request the move by another. Also, if there are any other articles that you copied and pasted, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Cut and paste move repair holding pen. Cenarium Talk 14:22, 16 April 2008 (UTC)

History and models
Is an item "available" if it is discontinued? (re "Three models are available, one of which is discontinued:")

 * is the 60GB model still made? if not, maybe change "discontinued" with "no longer manufactured"?

what do you think? (hey, also the image shows the older 60GB model with the older earphones, update?) 85.154.31.243 19:50, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

Weight
What is the official weight of this ipod? Where can we find that and add it to the specifications?

What we should do
If the iPod video materialises at today's Apple conference, then I'll have a good go at ripping this page up and popping something nice in it's place, or adding to the iPod page.

If the iPod video's all speculation and fails to materialise, then I'll AFD it.

Here's hoping for the former! Conferecne starts 10am PT (-7 GMT), so people should check then!

Facts
6G iPod paragram is pure speculation really. EAi 21:09, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

Update?
"The fifth generation iPod was updated on September 12, 2006. This update included a brighter screen, a search feature, gapless playback, new earphones, addition of games, and longer battery life when playing videos. An 80 GB model also replaced the 60 GB model, while retaining the same dimensions as its predecessor."

Is it just me or is does this mislead the reader completely? Some of the above features require the updated "5.5G" iPod and others such as games and gapless playback are accesible on the original 5G.

Opinions? --Connor oc 16:07, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

hi, i am looking to buy a 5.5g iPod video.

i would like the white 30gb model.

could someone please tell me a bit about the product?

If you want information about a product, Wikipedia is not the appropriate place to go. Run a google search, and next time sign your posts. 69.242.137.112 00:26, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

iPod Video or Fifth Generation iPod (emerging revert war)
It is necessary to acknowledge that "iPod Video" is not the correct name of the product. If you go to Apple's website, you will find no reference to it as "iPod Video". When the fourth generation iPod with colour display was released, it had the name "iPod Photo". Around a year later apple merged the two product lines and replaced the black-and-white models with the iPod Photo. At that point it ceased to be called the "iPod Photo".

The only reason it was called iPod Photo was to differentiate it from the regular iPod at the time. As only one major type of fifth generation iPod now exists, apple didn't need to call it "iPod Video". People just assume that's what it's called. If a video capable iPod had been released alongside a non video capable one, then they might have called it "iPod Video".

Therefore, although we can acknowledge that it is commonly referred to as iPod Video, we still have to explain that it isn't the correct name of the product. Shaw, Stephen 18:53, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

It's not incorrect, it's just unofficially called that... BY EVERYBODY all the accessories are listed as "iPod Video or G5 compatable" does it REALLY matter that much? 80.229.169.189 21:28, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
 * There's no need to say that it is (incorrectly) commonly called iPod Video. If that is what it's commonly called, then that's what it is commonly called.  It doesn't matter whether that it correct or not.  --Son 21:33, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

I changed it to something I hope will be some kind of compromise between the two arguments. Have a look and see what you think Shaw, Stephen 09:18, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

WIFI iPod
I just added details of the new Wifi iPod 80.229.169.189 09:11, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

 * "Details" of a "WiFi iPod" should not be added until there is sufficient proof that such a product exists. The only third party able to supply this proof is Apple. An unofficial magazine article is not proof. Until its official announcement by Apple, it's a rumour. Also, the article about the fifth generation iPod is not the right place to post details about a supposed new model of the iPod.Shaw, Stephen 12:30, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

How it is an unofficial magazine? they have a picture and all the details, just leave it in and stop being so PC 83.100.208.204 19:27, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

 * In this context, an unofficial magazine is one which is not published by Apple Inc. The picture and "details" mean nothing unless they were announced by Apple, in which case same would be on their website. Also, as I have previously mentioned, this article is entitled "IPod (5G)". It is therefore not the correct place to write about this supposed "WiFi iPod", whether it exists or not. Shaw, Stephen 14:42, 24 August 2007 (UTC)

Pre sept 2006 60gb or 80gb ipod?
so pre sept 2006 were the 80gb models available??

 * No, they weren't available Shaw, Stephen 14:49, 24 August 2007 (UTC)

Battery Life
What happend to the criticism about battery life ?

Official Firmware Encypted
It has not been proven whether or not-as far as I know-that the official firmware is encrypted or not. There is only speculation that it is, whilst others say that the (hardware?) has an additional checksum, to prevent syncing problems, so that the iPod will no longer act as a dumb-removable-drive. While at the same time, encryption seems unlikely as it has been proven that Apple's license agreement allows such software modifications to be present-and I believe it will not even void the warranty.

The new interface can be added into iPod where it can refer to the new nanos as well.

Sorry, please go ahead and put back the template, it just seemed obvious that it was misplaced. The page called ipod is about all models of ipods (nano/shuffle/mini/photo/video) of all generations, while most of those have their own pages as well (especially the newer ones). Therefor, for consistency this one should have it's own page as well. If, instead, all the models with their own pages were to be merged to the ipod page, it would become too long, or a lot of information would have to be deleted. Also, This page will probably be expanded eventually, it was only announced a few hours ago.--80.86.74.135 23:38, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

Don't Merge The Nano has its own page, for example. --Julian (http://beautifulrecords.org/) 00:33, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

Keep in mind, the iPod page address the iPod brand and family, not the iPod product. To maintain that, the classic should have its own page (the utterly stupid 5G article should be modified to accomondate the 1G-5G iPods).Butterfly0fdoom 08:33, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

As I see it, we have two choices for keeping the ipod articles consistent. In both choices there is one general article for all types of ipods. In the first choice, there is one article for classic (including "all iPods with the traditional 'large' HD-based form factor and interface"), one for minis one for nanos, one for shuffels and one for touch. The second choice is one article for each generation/model (although updates, such as 5.5g, would be included in the 5g article). These aticles would incude full technical details, release dates, known common bugs or defects, details on how well they sold, and other relevant details. I prefer the second choice, but I sense that most people want to scale it down as much as possible. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.86.74.137 (talk) 14:50, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

 * Don't Merge --DogGunn 00:55, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

Don't Merge with iPod video. There is no such product as iPod video. Apple wants music to be the focus of the iPod, so that's why they never called the iPod 6G iPod video. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.107.98.126 (talk) 08:08, 10 August 2008 (UTC)

Sixth generation?
Hey people, even though it is a new breed of iPod it is still classic, meaning it should still be similar to the fifth generation, maybe we name the iPod classic the 5.5 generation, and the iPod touch the sixth generation? That makes more sense... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.86.28.34 (talk) 00:00, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

I think classic is meant to imply that it is a 'descendant' of the original ipod (similar design, similar functions), which would make it sixth generation. As steve jobs said when he presented it, this line of design has never had a suffix like (like nano) so they have now decided to call it classic. This implies that they intend to maintain this line in the future, and develop it parallel to the 'touch', so it would be wrong to say classic is 5.5 (besides, 5.5 already exists, i believe). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.86.74.135 (talk) 00:10, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

6G seems an appropriate term, especially as 'iPod Classic' doesn't just seem to refer to this specific model. Steve Jobs called the 5G models 'iPod Classics' before introducing the 'new iPod Classic' (around 26 minutes into his presentation). My interpretation of this would be that 'iPod Classic' is an Apple retronym that now refers to all iPods with the traditional 'large' HD-based form factor and interface. - Rdwperl 13:18, 6 September 2007 (UTC)
 * As I said on the Talk:IPod page, I think the "iPod classic" covers all generations of the original (AKA classic) iPod. From the original 5GB 1G iPod all the way up to the 160GB "classic" iPod. -- MacAddct1984 18:00, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

 * Bingo. As a result this page should describe each hard-drive-based iPod (gens 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 5.5, 6, and each special edition version (No Doubt, Madonna, Beck, Tony Hawk, U2 (original, color, 5G), and Harry Potter (4G, 5G))) under their own section and iPod (5G) should be merged and redirected to this page.  iPod should be reserved for talking about the iPod brand and line in general with most of the content about specific iPods pushed to the links iPod classic, iPod mini, iPod shuffle, iPod photo, iPod nano, and iPod touch.

All I've laid down, though, is just a basic framework. People that know more about the previous iPod classics, please fill in the blanks! It's still possible to un-merge the photo article anyway. The 5G article, at any rate, should never be un-merged. Butterfly0fdoom 03:27, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

 *   and then   for any other occurance. -- MacAddct1984 04:10, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

 * I would say that the Ipod Classic is not 5.5 but 6g. The iPod has never been sold as iPod Classic befor the current model was released, and it is far from the same as 5G. The HD space has doubled, the interface is all-new, and it's thinner than the 5G (6G iPod classic 80GB vs. 5G iPod video 80GB). And btw, the iPod touch has been released as a new model, and have got more in common with the iPod nano than the iPod classic, it doesn't have a HD, it's equipped with flash memory. These are completely different technologies.--193.217.58.211 13:39, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

Is this article about Ipods or "classics"?
Letting Apple's marketing strategy determine the naming of articles ("retronym"??? Please. What is this, Star Wars?) leads to absurdities like this: "The first batch of iPod classics has been reported to crash trying to load album art and connecting to iTunes after syncing for the first time. " Excuse me, but according to the article, all' Ipods are "classics." The article, under this name, should refer only to the latest generation -- if it's needed at all. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.229.45.200 (talk) 02:28, 31 October 2007 (UTC)

"The first batch of iPod classics has been reported to crash trying to load album art and connecting to iTunes after syncing for the first time." should be "The first batch of sixth generation iPod classics have been reported to crash trying to load album art and connecting to iTunes after syncing for the first time. "--160.5.225.172 14:29, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

 * If it means anything, the latest iTunes update I got from Apple mentioned "iPod Fifth/5.5 Generation" and iPod Classic as two seperate products. I would think that the classic suffix applied to the Sixth Generation iPods. And if it does apply to all, then I would imagine there is a source (or it would reasonably easy to find one) saying that Apple has adpoted that retronym.

4 Pin remote jack
I changed the article to say that the remote jack on the 3G is a 4-pin connection next to the headphone port and someone has reverted it back to say it's 10-pin. Here is a link to a picture of one side of the remote's connection, showing a 3-channel mini jack and 2 of the 4 connections on the remote connecter. It's possible that the extra channel on the mini jack is used for the remote, but even if it's included then the remote connection uses only 5 contacts.

Look, this is easy to understand. The term "classic" is used as a retronym, thus the older gen models are being named backwards -- INTO THE PAST.

iPod models (classic)
Not all iPods are "classic". They may be classic iPods in the same sense as a classic car (Mustang, GTO) or a classic movie (Casa Blanca, Gone With the Wind), but the specific name of the models are not all now "5th gen classic" or "2nd gen classic".

Here's the info from Apple (they made and named the iPods, remember?)

For the iPod models, see Apple - Identifying iPod models

"iPod classic

The iPod classic is a hard drive-based iPod (80 GB or 160 GB) featuring a large, widescreen color display, a Click Wheel, and the capability of displaying photos and videos. Like other models, it uses USB for syncing. The iPod classic is available in silver and black, and has an anodized aluminum and polished stainless steel enclosure.

You can distinguish the iPod classic from the iPod (5th generation) " (LOOK, THEY ARE DIFFERENT) "by the last three digits of the serial number. The iPod classic serial number's last three digits will be one of the following: Y5N, YMU, YMV, and YMX."

I don't see Apple referring to the following as "classic" anywhere.

"iPod (5th generation late 2006) (also known as iPod with video or Fifth Generation iPod)"

"iPod with color display...These are considered fourth generation models along with iPod (Click Wheel)."

"iPod (dock connector)...dock connector models are referred to as third generation iPod models."

"iPod (touch wheel)... are considered second generation iPod models."

"iPod (scroll wheel)...are referred to as first generation iPod models."

iPod classic flagship?
I would say that the iPod touch is the flagship model. Although the classic has much more space, the touch is more feature packed. Mister macphisto (talk) 09:05, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

 * The flagship model isn't always the most expensive or the most feature-packed. While it often is, in the case of the iPod family, it can be argued that the iPod classic is the flagship because it is of the aesthetic of what is often associated with the iPod (that is, a screen and a wheel). Furthermore, the classic is (by Jobs' use of a retronym and our consensus acceptance of the retronym as the norm) the original line of iPods or (by Apple's support document nomenclature and the interpretation that some consider the norm) the successor of the original iPod. Under both interpretations of the iPod classic's position in the iPod lineup, it would be the flagship. Butterfly0fdoom (talk) 06:44, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

Capitalisation
Per MOS:TM, we should present the product name as "iPod Classic", not "iPod classic". There is examption for the initial "i" because it is a distinctive mark of the product and there's an exemption for improper caps in the first two letters, but "Shuffle" should be capitalised per standard title case.

 * No, I disagree. You look at the top of the talkpage here and in the archives in Talk:iPod, and you'll see that this page being the way it is is because of community consensus and Steve Jobs himself applying the retronym. Butterfly0fdoom (talk) 17:49, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

Next generation...
Anyone know when the next update's expected to happen with either the Classic or any of the other ipods? It's usually in Sep each year isn't it, but not every year, so is Sep 2008 gonna see new models perhaps with larger HDD's?

I'm really waiting for the next generation to appear before updating my model -- hopefully a 320GB Classic would be very useful to a WAV user like myself :-) !

Anyone know or have any insider details? Thanks in advance Jimthing (talk) 02:07, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

How do I decide?
With all this information, it is confusing. What criteria should I consider when trying to decide between a classic, a nano and a touch? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.160.137.121 (talk) 19:24, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

Not that it's relevant to the article, but anyway: get an iPod touch. The apps are so much fun - even the free ones! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.83.233.25 (talk) 09:20, 12 September 2008 (UTC)

7G?
Any source for it being a new generation? It's only a change in memory size. --[ka z i k a m e ] 22:03, 9 September 2008 (UTC)

 * Apple's site lists it as another capacity choice, I say we treat it as a 6.5G. Butterfly0fdoom (talk) 03:14, 10 September 2008 (UTC)

 * http://www.amazon.com/Apple-iPod-classic-Black-Generation/dp/B001F7AHXM/ Apple's Amazon account has the 120 GB model listed as the 7th Generation. Lanthas (talk) 00:56, 11 September 2008 (UTC)

I believe this should be considered a 7th generation for the ipod classic, as several new features were added, and they are discontinuing production of the 80 and 160gb models. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Matt121matt121 (talk • contribs) 02:10, 11 September 2008 (UTC)

On Apple's support website, it's listed as "iPod classic (120 GB)" with no clear generation difference marking. Given that the only change is increased battery life, a new hard drive, and compatibility with the new headphones, treating this as a 6.5G (or 1.5G if you're one of those that refuse to accept the retronym) is most appropriate, as the 5.5G changes are similar in scale (increased battery life, new hard drive for the larger model, and new firmware capabilities). Butterfly0fdoom (talk) 04:59, 11 September 2008 (UTC)

New firmware
I just purchased a new 120GB iPod Classic. Under About it shows 2.0, Does that mean there is a new firmware for the Classic? 80.229.169.189 (talk) 19:45, 11 September 2008 (UTC)

iPod or iPod Classic
I feel the Sixth generation should get it's own article not only due to it's name of the "iPod Classic" that is only prevalent to THIS generation as supported by this "Identifying iPod Models" page on Apple Support, but also due to its section size in the article. Also it is not called "iPod Classic 6th Generation" on the Apple Support page. So it is not in the same category as previous models. 76.83.223.0 (talk) 01:30, 22 September 2008 (UTC)
 * I feel that you should scroll up and see why the Wikipedia page is the way it is. Apple Support is famous for ambiguous names. Butterfly0fdoom (talk) 03:09, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Yes, but this Wikipedia page is one of the few websites that consider the iPod Classic the iPod Classic 6th Generation. I understand your reasoning, the iPod Classic has a lot of similarities to the defunct iPod line but it is a separate model. 76.83.223.71 (talk) 02:19, 28 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Not according to Steve Job's own words. And Steve Jobs actually uses generational terminology himself. The support page generally doesn't use such distinctions. Butterfly0fdoom (talk) 23:07, 28 September 2008 (UTC)
 * But even so it is a new model. But even other than that to make the article consistent I feel that the 6th generation should just be a summary, with the firmware information in a different article that can go into detail about that information, or it should be added to all sections about their firmware. 76.83.223.71 (talk) 23:38, 30 September 2008 (UTC)
 * This was discussed before. If you want to break the consensus, you need something solid to establish how it's a new model. To support the status quo, Steve Job's recorded use of "iPod classic" as a retronym is used. Butterfly0fdoom (talk) 07:45, 2 October 2008 (UTC)
 * I believe this should be iPod, because that is the original name. The first paragraph should make mention of the retronym-ing. The iPod brand has a legacy. If Lucas and Spielberg announced that Indiana Jones was to be renamedAdventure Archaeologist what would you call it? 86.145.40.155 (talk) 04:53, 27 March 2009 (UTC)

Individual pages
Wouldn't it be better to put the individual generations of the iPod into seperate articles (e.g. Zune 80, 120, etc.) rather than into one article as it seems to be a bit cluttered and a bit harder to read. It's not likely they would be stub articles anyway. Let hal  Ref  lex  16:19, 2 October 2008 (UTC)
 * I think the current system is fine. 6 "classic", 2 shuffle, 2 mini, 4 nano, and 2 touch articles is overkill. The Zune line is smaller, therefore article separation is not an issue. Butterfly0fdoom (talk) 23:35, 2 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Well they seem to lack more content. It's ridiculously small for as big and as popular as iPods currently are.  Let  hal  Ref  lex  01:56, 3 October 2008 (UTC)
 * That's hardly a justifications for individual pages for each generation. "Big and popular" does not establish sufficient notability for each individual generation. Furthermore, there isn't enough unique information for each individual information without turning the articles into spec sheets. Butterfly0fdoom (talk) 18:02, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

Container format != codec
In the section Fifth Generation it is stated that the 5G iPod plays videos in "MP4 (up to 2.5 Mbit/s) and H.264 (up to 1.5 Mbit/s, baseline profile only) formats", which seems to imply that they are interchangeable and similar. (Whether they are meant to be listed as codecs of containers is unknown.) They aren't of course, as MP4 refers to the mpeg-4 container format and h.264 is a codec. They can be used simultaneously. There are codecs in the mpeg-4 standard, including h.264, but I assume this is meant to refer to mpeg-4 part 2 codecs (of which there are many). I'm not sure exactly which container formats or codecs the 5G supports, but that should probably included in full and the lists should be discreet from one another to avoid confusion. 86.145.40.155 (talk) 05:26, 27 March 2009 (UTC)

St Mary's Church, Handsworth

St Mary's Church, Handsworth, also known as Handsworth Old Church, is a Grade II* listed Anglican church in Handsworth, Birmingham, England. Its ten-acre (4 hectare) grounds are contiguous with Handsworth Park. It lies just off the Birmingham Outer Circle, and south of a cutting housing the site of the former Handsworth Wood railway station. It is noteworthy as the resting place of famous progenitors of the industrial age, and has been described as the "Cathedral of the Industrial Revolution".

History
Despite the church's strong Industrial Revolution connections, the earliest parish register for St Mary's (held at the Library of Birmingham) commences in 1558; while the first stone church building was erected on the site around 1160. This was a small and austere Norman structure, occupying about half of the present south aisle. The church's few surviving Norman features can be seen at the lower stages of the sandstone tower at the original church's east end.

In its long history, St Mary's has undergone successive and opinionated reconstruction, especially in 1820 and 1870. As a Staffordshire country church placed at the convergence of several cross country tracks, St Mary's became a significant part of the largest industrial city in Britain. In his 1851 History, Gazetteer and Directory of Staffordshire, William White records:

"Handsworth Church, St Mary, is picturesquely situated on the Hamstead road, about two miles (3 km) NNW of Birmingham. It is an ancient structure, partly rebuilt and enlarged in 1820, and has a tower with six bells, which like the other remaining parts of the ancient fabric, is in the decorated style of the time of Edward III. In the chancel are two recumbent effigies of members of the Wyrley family, and an ancient piscena. On the south side, a neat groined chapel has been raised over the vault of the late celebrated engineer, James Watt, Esq, of whom there is in the chapel a beautiful white marble statue, by Chantrey. Among the numerous mural monuments in the church is one in memory of the late Matthew Boulton, Esq, of Soho. The rectory is in the patronage of the Rev John Peel, DD, and the Rev George William Murray, MA, is the incumbent."

In 1894, part of the parish was taken to form a new parish for St Paul's Church, Hamstead. Handsworth parish was transferred from Staffordshire to Warwickshire in 1911. The celebrated artist George Willis-Pryce painted a view of the church from across a swan-lake at this time. The rectory to which White refers was demolished in the 1890s to make way for the large pond of Handsworth Park and at the start of the 21st century it is more accurate to describe St Mary's as situated on Hamstead Road in the Victorian suburb of Handsworth, in the Birmingham electoral ward of Lozells and East Handsworth; and, since 1974, the West Midlands county.

Organ
A new organ built by Bishop and Starr was opened on 18 December 1866. It was replaced at a cost of £1,260 in 1895 by a new instrument by Gray and Davison. This organ was later restored by Norman and Beard in 1906, and Hill, Norman & Beard in 1939 and 1967. A specification can be found on the National Pipe Organ Register. There is no longer a pipe organ in use at the church.

Organists

 * C. Fletcher from 1843 (formerly organist at St Mary and All Saints' Church, Kidderminster)
 * William Elliott until 1848
 * George W. Elliott from 1848 (succeeded his father)
 * Henry Price until 1866
 * Twyford Taylor 1866-1867
 * William T. Taylor 1867-1877 (formerly organist at St John’s Church, Harborne)
 * Dr. William Thomas Belcher 1878-1883 (afterwards organist at Holy Trinity Church, Bordesley)
 * Thomas Troman 1883-1889
 * Charles William Perkins 1889-1891 (also Birmingham City Organist)
 * George John Halford from 1891 (formerly organist at Holy Trinity Church, Sutton Coldfield)
 * Alfred J. Silver 1901-1934 (formerly organist at Christ Church, Carmarthen)

Bells
A peal of 6 bells was installed in the tower in 1701. The bells were rehung by Amos and Edward Cresser of Birmingham in 1868. One bell was recast and two bells were added in 1890 by James Barwell and Sons. Following a large crack in one of the bells discovered in 1954 the bells were recast by John Taylor and Co of Loughborough in 1955. The tenor has weight of 797 kg.

Plans to end the neglect of the Churchyard
Since the 1970s, St Mary's churchyard has bordered on dereliction. It is a closed graveyard, with the apparently empty spaces to the south of the graveyard harbouring the final resting places of numerous paupers whose names are recorded in the Church Register but whose remains were interred without coffins or visible memorials, beyond the unevenness of the overgrown ground above them. The condition of the churchyard-—as a place that feels unsafe to some, whose memorials have become inaccessible to many, their inscriptions overgrown with ivy, headstones broken, unstable or unreachable through the surrounding undergrowth—-is recognised as a reproach to all who know the place. Even so, to those who enter the lime avenues long being kept clear of encroaching undergrowth, this wilderness contains mystery and beauty as well as melancholy. It is intended that planned improvements in the accessibility and appearance of the graveyard will be ones that restore it to respect in Handsworth, without lessening its serenity or its qualities as a haven for wildlife next to Handsworth Park. It is intended it should become a safer place, a more attractive place and a place of education for visitors of all ages. To this end there has been a marked increase in voluntary work in the graveyard while local community leaders have voted neighbourhood renewal funds that they hope will be matched by other regional agencies to implement a plan drawn up by the City Council's Landscape Practice Group to end years of neglect and bring about a rejuvenation similar to the great improvements they have funded in the neighbouring park between 2000 and 2006.

St Mary's then incumbent was Canon Brian A. Hall who in March 2006 became chairman of a new group called The Friends of St Mary's Churchyard, which aimed "to be a focus for future hopes for the integrity of St Mary's Churchyard as a special place" – special not only for the respect accorded to the dead which ought to apply to all graveyards, but also because of the association of the church and its grounds with the founding fathers of the industrial age, and more recently with two important figures in the development of football, William McGregor, Director of Aston Villa F.C., who organised the founding meeting of the Football League on 22 March 1888, and George Ramsay, whose headstone reads "Founder of Aston Villa".

Boulton, Watt & Murdoch memorials
James Watt lived in Handsworth and is chiefly remembered as the inventor of the separate condenser, the greatest single improvement ever made to the steam engine. In 1774, Matthew Boulton applied his engineering talent to realising Watt's idea. It was to follow that Boulton and Watt became one of the most famous partnerships in industrial history. William Murdoch, another engineer, perfected gas lighting and gave the world the high-pressure steam engine, and became a partner of Boulton and Watt.

All three are remembered by monuments in the core of the church. On the north wall of the sanctuary is a marble bust of Matthew Boulton, set in a circular opening above two putti, one holding an engraving of the Soho Manufactory. This was commissioned by Boulton's son, from the sculptor John Flaxman. On the wall opposite, below a pointed arch, is a stone bust of William Murdoch, spelled with a 'ck' — different from his own spelling. James Watt was buried in the grounds of St Mary's, but expansion of the church placed his tomb inside the church. To the south of the sanctuary, in an austere and serene space built especially for it – The James Watt Memorial Chapel – is a marble statue of Watt by Francis Legatt Chantrey, who regarded his statue of Watt as his favourite.

Conrad Küchler, a German refugee and engraver who worked for Boulton at his Soho Mint and who designed several British coins, was also buried in the churchyard.

Genealogical records
Under the aegis of the Birmingham & Midland Society for Genealogy & Heraldry (BMSGH), who sought it from the Handsworth Historical Society and the congregation of the church, a working group of the Handsworth Historical Society, chaired by Roy Lancelott, worked between March 1980 and March 1984 to create a record of every monument in St Mary's churchyard. This record comprises six volumes, titled Monumental Inscriptions, St Mary's Church Handsworth Birmingham. Photocopies of this record, which contains sketches of various headstones and detailed maps showing their position in the graveyard, are held by the BMSGH Library (Fiche number 11054), Margaret Street, Birmingham, the Society of Genealogists (London), the Archives & Collections section of the Library of Birmingham, and Staffordshire Record Office. It is also indexed by Findmypast. Brian Hall observes this piece of research has "brought to light once again the fascinating social history of this side of the emerging City of Birmingham during the Victorian and Edwardian period".

Fewer than a handful of monuments are now visited by relatives of those interred, and three simple headstones commemorating 14 soldiers buried during World War I are tended annually by the Commonwealth War Graves Commission.

Musical connections

Webster Booth (1902–1984), largely remembered today as the duettist partner of Anne Ziegler, joined his two older brothers in the choir of St Mary's. He was considered to be one of the finest British tenors of his generation.

Harry Freeman, the popular music hall performer, was buried in the churchyard in 1922.

Sporting connections
William McGregor (13 April 1846 – 20 December 1911) was the founding member of the Football League, and one-time manager and Club Administrator (then day Chairman), of Aston Villa FC.

Administrative divisions of Uttar Pradesh

The northern Indian state of Uttar Pradesh, which borders Nepal, comprises 18 administrative divisions. Within these 18 divisions, there are a total of 75 districts. The following table shows the name of each division, its administrative capital city, its constituent districts, and a map of its location.

Current divisions
Currently 75 districts are divided into 18 divisions.

Original Divisions with their original districts during Independence
During the formation of State of Uttar Pradesh, it consisted of 49 districts divided into 10 divisions.

There were three native principalities (Rampur State, Benaras State and Tehri Garhwal State) which existed outside the regular revenue administration which were later incorporated into it. Rampur State was made a district and was transferred to Rohilkhand division and later to newly formed Moradabad division. Benaras State was integrated with Varanasi district and Varanasi division. Tehri Garhwal State was carved into several hilly districts and a new Garhwal division was created in 1969 with Pauri district as its headquarters along with transferring of Dehradun district from Meerut division to Garhwal division. Pratapgarh district was transferred from Ayodhya division to Prayagraj division in 1988. Ballia district was transferred from Varanasi division when Azamgarh division was formed after separation from Gorakhpur division in 1994. When Uttarakhand got separated from Uttar Pradesh in 2000, Kumaon division and Garhwal division were incorporated into it along with newly formed Haridwar district which was transferred from Saharanpur division to Garhwal division.

Divisional Officers
Almost every department in Uttar Pradesh Government has its divisional level officers who supervise, review and guide its district level officers. There are many important divisional level committees and meetings chaired by concerned Divisional Commissioner which take inter-departmental decisions such as divisional crime and law & order review meeting, divisional security committee, divisional level monitoring committee for development work, regional transport authority etc. Every divisional headquarter district has a state guest-house known as Circuit House.

Demand for integrated Divisional Office Complexes
After the state government approved integrated divisional office complexes for Gorakhpur and Varanasi division which will have offices of all divisional officers under one roof. The opposition alleged favouritism for these two divisions as they are located in Chief Minister’s and Prime Minister’s constituencies.

Jonathan Glover

Jonathan Glover (born 1941) is a British philosopher known for his books and studies on ethics. He currently teaches ethics at King's College London. Glover is a fellow of the Hastings Center, an independent bioethics research institution in the United States, and is a Distinguished Research Fellow at the Oxford Uehiro Centre for Practical Ethics.

Education
Glover was educated at Tonbridge School, later going on to Corpus Christi College, Oxford. He was a fellow and tutor in philosophy at New College, Oxford, and is now a Distinguished Research Fellow at the Oxford Uehiro Centre for Practical Ethics.

Career
Glover's book Causing Death and Saving Lives, first published in 1977, addresses practical moral questions about life and death decisions in the areas of abortion, infanticide, suicide, euthanasia, choices between people, capital punishment, and issues of war and peace. His approach is broadly consequentialist (utilitarian), though he gives significant weight to questions of individual autonomy, the Kantian notion that we ought to treat other people as ends in themselves rather than merely as means. He criticises the idea that time periods of mere consciousness or life itself are intrinsically valuable: these states matter, he argues, because they are pre-requisites for other things that are valuable and make for a life worth living. There is, then, no absolute sanctity of human life. He criticises the principle of double effect, as well as the acts and omissions doctrine, specifically the notion that there is a huge moral difference between killing someone and intentionally letting them die. He also draws on insights from history and literature, not just strictly from philosophy. On the topic of 20th century war and moral distance, he writes, "There is the feeling that because killing at a distance is easier, one would not have to be such a monster to do it." Throughout, the emphasis is on the consequences of moral choices for those affected, rather than on abstract principles applied impersonally.

In Humanity: A Moral History of the Twentieth Century, published in 1999, Glover considers the psychological factors that predispose us to commit barbaric acts, and suggests how man-made moral traditions and the cultivation of moral imagination can work to restrain us from a ruthlessly selfish treatment of others. Gaining greater understanding of the monsters within us, he argues, is part of the process of caging and containing them. He examines the various types of atrocity that were perpetrated in the 20th century, including Nazi genocide, mass killings under Stalin, Mao, and Pol Pot, and more recent slaughter in Bosnia and Rwanda, and examines what sort of bulwarks there could be against them. He allows that religion has provided bulwarks, which are getting eroded. He identifies three types of bulwark. The two more dependable are sympathy and respect for human dignity. The less dependable third is Moral Identity: "I belong to a kind of person who would not do that sort of thing". This third is less dependable because notions of moral identity can themselves be warped, as was done by the Nazis.

In The End of Faith: Religion, Terror, and the Future of Reason, Sam Harris quotes Glover as saying: "Our entanglements with people close to us erode simple self-interest. Husbands, wives, lovers, parents, children and friends all blur the boundaries of selfish concern.  Francis Bacon rightly said that people with children have given hostages to fortune.  Inescapably, other forms of friendship and love hold us hostage too...Narrow self-interest is destabilized."

In 1989, the European Commission hired Glover to head a panel on embryo research and assisted reproduction.

In 2018, Glover was awarded the Dan David Prize for his work in bioethics.

David Johnston (Australian politician)

David Albert Lloyd Johnston (born 14 February 1956) is an Australian politician who was a Liberal Party member of the Australian Senate from 2002 to 2016, representing the state of Western Australia. Johnston was the Minister for Defence from 18 September 2013 to 23 December 2014, when he was replaced by Kevin Andrews.

Background and career

Johnston was born in Perth and was educated at University of Western Australia, where he graduated in law. He was a barrister in Kalgoorlie before entering politics, representing companies such as Gold Mines of Kalgoorlie LTD and North Kalgurli Mines LTD. He unsuccessfully contested the House of Representatives at the 1987 federal election, polling 37.3% of first preferences to finish second behind the then Labor incumbent Graeme Campbell in the Division of Kalgoorlie.

Johnston successfully stood for a WA Senate seat in the federal election on 10 November 2001. He assumed office on 1 July 2002 and on 6 March 2007 was made Minister for Justice and Customs (effective 9 March), following the move of former Justice minister Chris Ellison to the Human Services portfolio.

Malcolm Turnbull, on becoming Leader of the Opposition, promoted Johnston to the Shadow Cabinet as Shadow Minister for Defence. In September 2010 he was re-appointed to that role by Opposition leader, Tony Abbott, after the 2010 election.

Following the 2013 federal election, Johnston was sworn in as Minister for Defence, effective 18 September 2013.

Comments on ASC
In November 2014, Johnston came under fire for comments regarding the government owned defence building company, the Australian Submarine Corporation. In comments to the senate he stated that ASC was delivering no submarines for one billion dollars and that they were over $350.00000 over budget on air three airware destroyer builds and that it was probably more than six hundred million but the bad data could not grant him an answer and then he said "You wonder why I'm worried about ASC and what they're delivering to the Australian taxpayer, you wonder why I wouldn't trust them to build a canoe?". The South Australian Liberal Party demanded an apology for the senator's remarks and the federal Labor opposition called for the senator's resignation from the Defence portfolio. Johnston indicated he regretted his comments the next day, calling it a "rhetorical flourish". Opposition Senate Leader Penny Wong moved a motion to censure Johnston for his remarks on the ASC, as well as his handling of the ADF staff pay cut. The motion passed 37 to 31 votes.

Much of the anti-Liberal swing at the 2014 Fisher state by-election in South Australia, where Labor won the traditionally Liberal seat by just five votes from a 7.27 percent two-party swing to go from minority to majority government, was attributed to Johnston's "I wouldn't trust them to build a canoe" remark toward South Australia's Australian Submarine Corporation, occurring just several days out from the by-election. The unpopularity of then Prime Minister Tony Abbott was cited as the other main factor.

Leaked dinner receipts
In December 2014, less than a month after his comments on the ASC were made, News Corp leaked images of receipts totalling thousands of dollars allegedly used by Senator Johnston's government issued credit card to pay for the dinners of a number of companies vying for a contract to build the Collins-class submarine replacement project. Items on the receipts came to a total of $6,384 and sometimes cost up to $300 a head as well as including $200 bottles of wine. After the leak was released two staffers from the senators office resigned but neither were accused of being responsible for the leak. A spokesperson for Senator Johnston responded by saying "All hospitality hosted by the Defence Minister and extended to foreign dignitaries or industry heads, including at the time of the Albany Commemoration, has been within guidelines and is consistent with previous defence ministers' practice" and that the senator's office was investigating the leaks and would not comment any further.
