Stigma (Star Trek: Enterprise)

"Stigma" is the fortieth episode (production #214) of the television series Star Trek: Enterprise, the fourteenth of the second season. This science fiction episode has a story about a spacecraft crew in the 22nd century, dealing with an alien disease, and also a morality play about sexually transmitted diseases.

In the episode, it is revealed that Sub-commander T'Pol has a degenerative disease, pa'nar syndrome, contracted from her mind meld in "Fusion". She must face being ostracized by Vulcan society and losing her position on Enterprise.

Plot
Doctor Phlox tells Sub−Commander T'Pol that his treatment of her potentially fatal disease, pa'nar syndrome, is losing effectiveness, so he would like to make confidential inquiries with Vulcan doctors attending an interspecies medical exchange on the planet Enterprise is now orbiting. T'Pol resists, but Phlox chooses to go anyway. Before he does, his second wife, Feezal, arrives to help install a new microscope, and she soon begins making amorous advances on Commander Tucker. A confused Tucker cannot quite wrap his mind around polygamy, which, in Denobulan culture, is quite a normal practice.

On the planet, Phlox's inquiries with the Vulcans yield little information. When the Vulcans request to visit and interview Phlox and T'Pol, it is clear that the subterfuge had failed, since the Vulcans trick T'Pol into providing a medical sample, which confirms their suspicions. Pa'nar syndrome is only transmitted via mind-meld, a practice which is considered taboo on the Vulcan homeworld. Captain Archer is upset to learn about T'Pol's condition from the Vulcans. Archer then pays his own visit to the Vulcans - a visit which is no more fruitful than Phlox's first. One of the doctors, Yuris, sets up a secret meeting with T'Pol to give her the information she seeks. He reveals a closely guarded secret: he himself is a mind–melder. T'Pol tells Yuris that the meld which gave her the disease was forced on her. Yuris begs her to tell the others before the Vulcan High Command is informed of her condition, but she declines.

It then comes out that T'Pol could lose her commission since pa'nar is a stigmatized disease. Archer uses a loophole in Vulcan protocol to force a hearing. T'Pol remains silent, but Archer stands by his science officer, all the while resisting the Vulcan doctors. Yuris then reveals his status as a melder, and exposes T'Pol's secret. As a result, he is suspended, but T'Pol is allowed to remain on Enterprise. She continues to stand her ground and states her intent to inform the High Command of recent events, hoping to defend Yuris and encourage others to challenge prejudice.

Pa'nar syndrome
Pa'nar syndrome is a fictional neurological ailment, fatal to Vulcans, and transferred between them via a mind meld. At this time in the Star Trek universe, only a small minority of Vulcans are believed to have the ability to initiate mind melds, and only a fraction of that group suffer from the syndrome. Furthermore, Vulcan society has "more intolerance today than there was 1,000 years ago" (a statement by Dr. Yuris, in this episode) and melding is not accepted by Vulcan society in general. Vulcans suffering from pa'nar syndrome are stigmatized – a situation that will not begin to change until the fourth season story arc culminating in the episode "Kir'Shara".

T'Pol contracts this relatively rare disease from a member of a rebellious Vulcan sect which had cast aside the rule of logic and experimented with mind melds and emotions. The event is seen in "Fusion" where T'Pol, apparently unaware of the risks, willingly participates in a mind meld initiated by Tolaris, but later resists the process. In "Stigma" she discloses that she was forced into it. In the fourth season episode "Awakening", T'Pol learns that the condition was caused by an improperly trained melder and, contrary to the public declarations of the Vulcan High Command, it was actually curable (in T'Pol's case, via a meld provided by future Vulcan elder T'Pau). It's later mentioned in "Daedalus" that other pa'nar victims are coming forward to be cured and the disease is no longer the source of stigma that it once was.

Production
In late 2002, Viacom, the owner of the UPN network on which Enterprise was aired, mandated that all fictional programs on its schedule would, sometime during the 2002–2003 season, produce a special episode addressing the AIDS-HIV pandemic.

Brannon Braga wanted to write an AIDS awareness story that was a subtle allegory, and that wasn't too preachy or tried for cheap sympathy. The story was more about the stigma and prejudice surrounding the disease than the disease itself. Braga was also aware of the failed attempt to tell a similar story in Star Trek: The Next Generation, the script "Blood and Fire" by David Gerrold that never made it out of development and into production. Rick Berman thought the episode was in keeping with the tradition of Star Trek, tackling the premise of AIDS through metaphors, he said "We dealt with an alien situation, something that would turn the whole idea, the whole initiative, on its ear to be looked at in a different way."

The plastic Vulcan posters seen in the Vulcan Medical Facility, which featured a Vulcan script and medical diagram, were designed by Timothy Earls. The props were also used in the episode "Impulse" and later went to auction.

Reception
"Stigma" first aired on February 5, 2003. It opened with a tribute to the crew of the Space Shuttle Columbia. According to Nielsen Media Research it was rated 2.9/4. The episode was watched by 4.4 million viewers.

Entertainment Weekly gave the episode a B+, calling it "a thoughtful examination of both pride and prejudice" although they found the B story involving Dr. Phlox's wife incongruous. G.J. Donnelly of TV Guide was critical of the script, and the subplot, but praised Blalock's performance: "Blalock lends T'Pol a dignified vulnerability worthy of the subject matter. Unfortunately, the resolution is predictable, and the tone throughout is a bit too politically correct." John Ruch of the Boston Herald felt that the episode's social commentary was too timid and that it failed to fully address sexuality-based discrimination. Others responded positively to the parallels between the episode and the intolerance in human society.

In 2021, The Digital Fix said this T'Pol centric episode was a morality play about AIDS, but that it "feels a decade too late in its approach" and although the idea was an interesting concept, it "is never explored outside the episode and the whole story feels a little heavy handed in its approach".

In 2015, Den of Geek in a review of important show characters, recommended this episode as important for understanding the character of Doctor Phlox.

Dawn (Star Trek: Enterprise)

"Dawn" is the thirty-ninth episode (production #213) of the television series Star Trek: Enterprise, the thirteenth of the second season. Set in the 2100s of the Star Trek universe, the Enterprise has set out to explore the galaxy.

Commander Trip Tucker's shuttle pod is fired upon by an Arkonian ship and is stranded on a desert moon with his attacker. As dawn comes on the moon, the temperature increases beyond what the characters can survive. Meanwhile, in orbit, Captain Archer of the Enterprise tries to deal with the Arkonions.

Plot
Commander Tucker is off-ship testing the new autopilot technology on one of Enterprise's shuttle pods. Without warning, his craft is approached and fired upon by an Arkonian ship. With the main systems damaged and central power lost, he is forced to crash-land on one of the system's many moons. On the moon, Tucker has survived the crash and tries to repair the communications systems. He realizes that he is not alone, and is ambushed by the Arkonian pilot, who has also crashed on the moon. After taking each other prisoner in turn, a truce of sorts occurs as they both realize that surviving is their main goal.

Meanwhile, having lost contact with the shuttle, Enterprise commences a search of the area. They are soon intercepted by a large ship belonging to the Arkonians, who claim the region as their own. They are territorial and aggressive, and have their own strained history with the Vulcans. While they demand that Enterprise immediately set course out of their system, their captain is reluctantly persuaded by Captain Archer to agree to a combined search of the sixty-two moons.

Using the surviving technology from both shuttles, Tucker manages to repair the transmitter, and to contact Enterprise. To complicate matters, the sun is slowly rising, and the temperature on the moon is becoming lethally hot. Moreover, since the moon's atmosphere interferes with the shuttle pods' power systems, Enterprise will have to beam the survivors up. The Arkonian, Zho'Kaan, is in too much physiological distress to survive transport, and Tucker refuses to abandon him. Archer then convinces the Arkonians to launch a shuttle modified to function in the moon's atmosphere. Later, with the crew back on board, Zho'Kaan tells Tucker that he is grateful that he failed to shoot down Tucker's pod. Sub-Commander T'Pol concedes that the rescue has allowed for friendlier and more productive relations with the Arkonians in one day than the Vulcans managed in over a hundred years.

Production
This was the third episode directed by Roxann Dawson. She praised guest star Gregg Henry and felt the antagonistic relationship between his character and Connor Trinneer worked beautifully. She found Tucker to be one of the most interesting characters on the show, because he is so accessible and his reactions feel real. The episode was written by John Shiban who had come to Enterprise from The X-Files and earlier in season 2 wrote the episode "Minefield" also directed by Dawson. Producer Rick Berman described the episode as being like Enemy Mine and that the episode would have "a lot of action and suspense."

Guest star Brad Greenquist (the Arkonian captain) previously appeared in the Star Trek: Voyager episode "Warlord" and in the Deep Space Nine episode "Who Mourns for Morn?". Gregg Henry (the Arkonian pilot Zho'Kaan) appeared in Star Trek: Insurrection as one of the Son'a.

Reception
"Dawn" first aired on UPN January 8, 2003. It had a Nielsen ratings share of 2.5/4. It had a total average audience of 3.99 million viewers.

The plot has been compared unfavorably to the classic The Next Generation episode "Darmok", in that two strangers from alien races must transcend a communication barrier in order to survive, but that "Dawn" is more derivative, simple, and lacks "challenge" or "vision". Bureau 42 outright accuses John Shiban of plagiarism of the film Enemy Mine. Michelle Erica Green of TrekNation found the episode derivative, and was disappointed that the B-plot wasn't more interesting to compensate, and that the episode did not take any real risks. The Digital Fix compared "Dawn" to the episode "Darmok", and said it was not terrible but for watchers of The Next Generation, this and some other stories could seem familiar. In his 2022 rewatch, Keith DeCandido of Tor.com gave it 5 out of 10. He notes the similarities to Hell in the Pacific and Enemy Mine and several Star Trek episodes with similar themes calling this the least of them with "nothing particularly compelling about it".

Releases
"Dawn" was released as part of the season two DVD box set, released in the United States on July 26, 2005. A release on Blu-ray Disc for season two occurred on August 20, 2013.

Leucophyllum

Leucophyllum (barometer bush or barometerbush) is a genus of evergreen shrubs in the figwort family, Scrophulariaceae, native to the southwestern United States and Mexico. It is sometimes placed in the family Myoporaceae. The dozen-odd species are often called "sages", although they have no relationship to the genus Salvia.

The solitary axillary flowers are bell- or funnel-shaped, with five lobes and two lips, and colors ranging from white to magenta to purple. The generic name is derived from the Greek words λευκός (leukos), meaning "white," and φυλλον (phyllos), meaning "leaf," referring to the trichome-covered foliage.

These shrubs are found in sandy soils and have a high salt tolerance. They have become popular for edge and area plantings in warmer areas and in xeriscaping; they require minimal water, are easily shaped into hedges, and bloom over their entire surface. Cultivars of L. frutescens, L. candidum, L. laevigatum, L. langmaniae, L. pruinosum, L. revolutum, and L. zygophyllum have been developed.

Leucophyllum shrubs are legendary for their ability to "forecast" rain, usually blooming several days prior to a rainstorm, apparently in response to humidity. They are sometimes called "barometer bush" for this reason. It is believed to be a survival trait in the plants' semi-desert habitats.

Selected species

 * Leucophyllum alejandrae G.L. Nesom
 * Leucophyllum ambiguum Bonpl.
 * Leucophyllum candidum I.M.Johnst. – Brewster County barometer bush
 * Leucophyllum flyrii B.L. Turner
 * Leucophyllum frutescens (Berland.) I.M.Johnst. – Texas sage, Texas ranger, silverleaf
 * Leucophyllum hintoniorum G.L. Nesom
 * Leucophyllum laevigatum Standl. – Chihuahuan sage
 * Leucophyllum langmaniae Flyr – Langman's sage, Rio Bravo sage

Love & Basketball

Love & Basketball is a 2000 American romantic sports drama film written and directed by Gina Prince-Bythewood in her feature film directorial debut. The film is produced by Spike Lee and Sam Kit and stars Sanaa Lathan and Omar Epps. It tells the story of Quincy McCall (Epps) and Monica Wright (Lathan), two next-door neighbors in Los Angeles, who are pursuing their respective basketball careers before eventually falling for each other.

Love & Basketball was released on April 21, 2000 in the United States. It received positive reviews from critics, with praise directed at the performances of Lathan and Epps, Prince-Bythewood's direction and script, and the emotional weight of the film. It grossed $27.7 million worldwide on a production budget of $14–20 million.

Over the years, the film has developed a dedicated following, cementing its place in popular culture, and establishing itself as a cult classic.

In 2023, the film was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as being "culturally, historically or aesthetically significant."

Plot
The story is divided into four quarters, each one representing a different period in the lives of the protagonists. The first quarter takes place in 1981, when Monica and Quincy are children and become friends due to their shared love for basketball. Monica proves to be an excellent player, beating Quincy in their first game of one on one. However, their friendship is threatened when Quincy knocks Monica down during a game, accidentally cutting her face. They reconcile and share their first kiss, but their relationship is complicated.

The second quarter is set in 1988 when Monica and Quincy are attending Crenshaw High School. Quincy is a star basketball player, and Monica is the leader of the girls' basketball team. Quincy is popular and dates the prettiest girl in school, while Monica struggles to control her emotions on the court and harbors feelings for Quincy. However, they manage to connect romantically and make love after both being accepted at the University of Southern California.

The third quarter begins when they start college, and Quincy is a promising player on the court while Monica frequently has run-ins with her head coach Ellie Davis and struggles to get playing time on the women's team. Quincy struggles to deal with the media attention and discovers his father's infidelity. The pressures of their athletic and academic commitments, coupled with their deteriorating relationship, cause them to break up.

The fourth quarter follows the plot to 1993, a few years before the establishment of the WNBA. Monica and Quincy are both professional basketball players. Monica plays for an International Women's Basketball Association (IWBA) team in Barcelona while Quincy is in his fifth year as a player for the Los Angeles Lakers. After visiting Quincy in the hospital following a devastating knee injury, Monica learns he is engaged to be married. She also confronts her mother, Camille, about their troubled past. Quincy recovers from his injury and his wedding draws closer, while Monica quits basketball to work at a bank. Camille encourages Monica to pursue her dreams and Quincy and Monica play a high stakes one-on-one game, with Quincy agreeing to call off the wedding if he loses. Although Quincy wins, he realizes he can't live without Monica and chooses her instead. The two get married and have a daughter. Monica later plays in the WNBA.

In a post-credits scene, Quincy and Monica's daughter is shown playing basketball at a playground.

Cast

 * Omar Epps as Quincy McCall
 * Glenndon Chatman as young Quincy
 * Sanaa Lathan as Monica Wright
 * Kyla Pratt as young Monica
 * Alfre Woodard as Camille Wright, Monica's mother
 * Dennis Haysbert as Zeke McCall, Quincy's father
 * Debbi Morgan as Nona McCall, Quincy's mother
 * Harry J. Lennix as Nathan Wright, Monica's father
 * Christine Dunford as Coach Davis
 * Erika Ringor as Sidra O'Neal
 * Regina Hall as Lena Wright, Monica's sister
 * Naykia Harris as young Lena
 * Boris Kodjoe as Jason
 * Gabrielle Union as Shawnee
 * Monica Calhoun as Kerry
 * Tyra Banks as Kyra, Quincy's fiancée
 * Al Foster as Coach Hiserman

Production
In writing the semi-autobiographical film, Prince-Bythewood said her goal was "to do a black When Harry Met Sally." She has credited executive producer Spike Lee with enabling the production of the film and the opportunity to direct her own script. Gabrielle Union, who wound up playing Quincy's high school love interest, originally auditioned for the lead role of Monica. Prior to playing Monica, Sanaa Lathan had never played basketball. Unbeknownst to Prince-Bythewood, stars Lathan and Omar Epps had started dating prior to the film's production.

This was the second film to feature both Epps and Dennis Haysbert; prior to this, they played teammates on a fictitious version of the Cleveland Indians in the 1994 baseball movie Major League II.

Music
Love & Basketball is the soundtrack to the film, released April 18, 2000, on Overbrook Entertainment and Interscope Records. Production for the album came from several recording artists, including Raphael Saadiq, Angie Stone, Zapp, and Steve "Silk" Hurley. In the US, the album peaked at number 45 on the Billboard 200 and number 15 on R&B/Hip-Hop Albums. Stacia Proefrock of Allmusic gave the album a three-of-five star review, saying, "Songs like Meshell Ndegeocello's 'Fool of Me' help punctuate this story of childhood friends who love each other almost as much as they love the game of basketball. Other highlights of the soundtrack include songs from MC Lyte, Al Green, and Rufus."

Critical response
On review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, the film holds an approval rating of 85% based on 113 reviews, with an average rating of 6.9/10. The site's critics consensus reads: "Confident directing and acting deliver an insightful look at young athletes." At Metacritic, the film has a weighted average score of 70 out of 100, based on 28 critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews". Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave the film an average grade of "A" on an A+ to F scale.

Film critic Lisa Schwarzbaum of Entertainment Weekly gave Love & Basketball an A− review. She enjoyed how the film portrayed women's sports in general and said, "The speed and wiliness of the game itself ensure that movies about men who shoot hoops are exciting, but the novelty of watching women bring their own physical grace to the contest is a turn-on."

Rachel Deahl of AllRovi gave the film 3.5 out of 5 stars. In her review she complimented Epps and Lathan on their performances, and said, "Love & Basketball serves as a somber reminder of how few films exist (much less love stories, much less ones that focus on the female perspective) about multi-dimensional African-American characters outside the ghetto." Film critic Desson Thomson of The Washington Post wrote, "Love and Basketball had moments of such tenderness and sophistication, complimented [sic] by such romantic dreaminess between lead performers Omar Epps and Sanaa Lathan. First-time filmmaker Gina Prince-Bythewood's film joins such films as The Best Man and The Wood, which look for the class, not the crass, in African American life."

New York Post critic Jonathan Foreman gave the film a mixed review; he appreciated how the film "effectively conveys the excitement of basketball from a player's point of view", but opined the film is "filled with fake-sounding dialogue you only find in the cheesiest TV movies." Roger Ebert, film critic for the Chicago Sun-Times, wrote, "The film is not as taut as it could have been, but I prefer its emotional perception to the pumped-up sports clichés I was sort of expecting. It's about the pressures of being a star athlete; the whole life, not the game highlights. I'm not sure I quite believe the final shot, though. I think the girl suits up for the sequel." Ebert gave the film three out of four stars. Robert Wilonsky of the Dallas Observer gave the film a negative review, saying "[it] is a film built upon transitions so weak and obvious it's astonishing the entire thing doesn't collapse on itself. You want to root for it, as you would any rookie underdog, but it offers nothing to cheer for." Of the acting, he stated, "Omar Epps possesses a chiseled body and a blank stare [...] Lathan is only slightly better, but she's stuck in a hollow role."

A 2015 review of the film by The A.V. Club praises it as a "nearly perfect modern romantic drama", and notes that it is an impressive debut for writer-director Gina Prince-Bythewood. The review highlights the film's focus on the protagonist, Monica, and her coming-of-age story as a female basketball player who is constantly told that her body type and attitude are unacceptable. The review also notes the film's respect for Monica's athleticism, which is captured in every frame, and praises the director's tender and celebratory gaze towards her female lead.

Box office
Love & Basketball was released in North America on April 21, 2000 to 1,237 theaters. It grossed $3,176,000 its first day and ending its North American weekend with $8,139,180, which was the second-highest grossing movie of the April 21–23, 2000 weekend, only behind U-571. Love & Basketball grossed $27,459,615 in the United States, which is ninth all-time for a basketball film and thirty-seventh all-time for a sports drama. The film grossed $27,728,118 worldwide; $268,503 (1%) was grossed outside of the United States.

Joseph Mangan

Joseph Mangan is an American aerospace engineer who, in 2004, was threatened with prison after telling European aviation authorities of his belief that the microprocessors controlling cabin pressurization valves in the new Airbus A380 might allow a sudden depressurization of the passenger cabin in flight—which, at normal cruising altitudes, could endanger the lives of people aboard the aircraft. A sudden loss of pressure at high altitudes can produce unconsciousness within seconds, followed eventually by death.

According to the European Aeronautic Defence and Space Company, all parties have ensured through the most varied control channels that there is no safety deficit with regards to the scenario, as described by Mangan in the final certificated aircraft. All corresponding documents were reviewed and approved by European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) and US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). The review process, incorporating the participation of Joseph Mangan, successfully finished in late 2006 when the Airbus A380 including the internal communication system and the microprocessors of the cabin pressure control system was certified by EASA and FAA.

Mangan's story is one of those featured in a 2007 French Documentary entitled Du côté des "anges" which translates to On the side of the "Angels" by Mattieu Verboud, which is about employees who break "the law of silence" to denounce acts of corruption or negligence in their companies.

Federalist No. 10
I want to get some more eyes on this page to help it along toward FAC, right now I've been the only significant editor. Any ideas, thoughts, or criticisms would be welcomed. Christopher Parham (talk) 00:20, 2 October 2005 (UTC)

OK - here we go(not reviewing content)! Ryan Norton T 04:19, 2 October 2005 (UTC)
 * First off, this needs a be layed out differently in general. I.E. I see 3 short sections, 1 medium-sized one, and two long ones. You should try to keep them either close to the same size, or at least get rid of the short ones.
 * 1) Second paragraph in the intro needs about one more sentence
 * 2) "Publication" first paragraph too short, second one is on the short side too
 * 3) "The question" too short
 * 4) "Publius's argument" The subsection there is kind of interesting.... I'd try to add another subsection in there or just axe the current one. In addition, esp. if you do the latter, you could help yourself by combining some paragraphs here, but its not too bad at all.
 * 5) "Counterarguments of the time" - probably just "Counterarguments" would be fine here. Also, the reading here is kind of stop and go... but the two longish blockquotes here is going to make this difficult. It's ok as is, but I'd consider playing around with the text here to see if you can squeeze a bit more text from the middle of the section before and after the blockquotes where the short text is.
 * 6) "Analysis" - again, blockquote makes this tricky, but try getting some more text in before the blockquote if you can
 * 7) "Application" - this one looks pretty good!
 * 8) "Notes" NOOO! With the well layed-out references I wasn't expecting this. Always have a description for the links, ESPECIALLY if you're going to cite them!
 * 9) "External links" - usual complaint about not describing where the link goes to (in this case the University of Chicago if I gather correctly).

Pronounce "Garand"
If I remember correctly, Hatcher stated this in his work, "Book of the Garand." I do not own a copy of this, but I did verify the accuracy of this a few months back as background for a forum question on this same subject. It's near the beginning of the book, but I don't have the time to search out the information right now.--Asams10 06:24, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
 * My father said that he wasn't going to pronounce it like Garand wanted either. He's a Korea vet.  Said he used the gun, and they called it the gur-AND, and that's the way it's going to stay.  I've made an effort to use the correct pronunciation, but I too grew up saying it the common way.--Asams10 15:36, 28 March 2006 (UTC)

If you don't understand Japanese, have watched a fansub of a Japanese show done by deaf idiots based on a game you've never played, and are about to demand to know why I removed something from an article about said game that's obviously a load of rubbish to anyone who actually knows anything, do me a favour and go away. Thank you. Omgwtflolz 16:52, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

Re:Clannad
It is best not to put what happened to Nagisa and Ushio (those are After Story fate!), those are extremely huge spoiler. I suggest that you put the After Story details in the Furukawa Nagisa page, or make a page about the other characters. If you place them again, I think I won't do anything.

Thank you, anything, please talk to me. -RasAlmond

 * Jesus, I've lost count of how many times people have given me that excuse for removing things.
 * >>those are extremely huge spoiler
 * So?

 * "It is not acceptable to delete information from an article about a work of fiction because you think it spoils the plot. "
 * Do not do that again.

Talk:Gene Cernan

Last words
I thought the last words spoken by Eugene Cernan on the moon were "Let’s get this mutha outta here." rather than what is quoted on the page.

See http://www.newyorker.com/critics/books/articles/051003crbo_books for reference.

I'll see what others think and perhaps make the change; I think it's likely Cernan uttered both quotes so perhaps both could be included.

Thanks
 * I suspect the "last words" quoted are the "official" ones... Trekphiler 00:05, 22 December 2005 (UTC)

I don't see mentioned what I've heard: Gene was last man to drive Boeing's Lunar Rover on Luna. Add it? Trekphiler 00:05, 22 December 2005 (UTC)

The last words quoted are the real last words spoken before Cernan went up the ladder into the LM for the last time. If he said "let's get this mutha outta here" it would have been much later, just before liftoff. But as it says on the Apollo 17 wikipedia page, the "mutha" line is not on the NASA audio tapes. It's just a fun story. I also wanted to point out a flaw in the Eugene Cernan page. It says that he wrote his daughter's initials in the dust on the moon. Not true. This is something he wished he had done, which was (unwisely) depicted in the TV series "From The Earth To The Moon" as having been a real event. See text below, from the Apollo 17 wikipedia page: In "Le Voyage dans La Lune", Co-Executive Producer Tom Hanks gave Commander Gene Cernan a moment that he desperately wished for in real life. The episode shows Cernan carving the initials of his then 9-year-old daughter, Tracey, in the lunar dust. It was something Cernan had actually intended to do during the moon walk. However, the relentless pressure of the EVA Timeline actually prevented him from doing. (Based on a Cernan interview with reporter Dan Fiorucci in a 1999 interview conducted via satellite for a story that aired on WPHL-TV, Philadelphia) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.6.160.146 (talk) 18:43, 9 June 2011 (UTC)

Yes, the footage in From the Earth to the Moon was really wishy-washy and misleading as to whether or not he left her initials on the moon. However, the actress playing his daughter as an adult makes a funny face, and Gene himself sighs while talking about the schedule, so it's clear that it did not happen after-all, otherwise this would only be a happy memory. What is misleading is that they go ahead and show footage of the initials which would make viewers believe that it did happen. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:14B:4401:D5C0:E969:71C9:F2D2:472E (talk) 05:56, 17 January 2017 (UTC)

Title
As far as I know, he is better known without his middle name. Should the page be moved? Reywas92 TalkSigs 21:17, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

Please re-title this article "Eugene Cernan." Here's why . ..
So how did the article about Gene Cernan get to be called by his full first-middle-last name in the first place? Neil Armstrong's article is just Neil Armstrong. Alan Bean's article is just Alan Bean. Alan Shepard's article is just Alan Shepard.

I strongly recommend that the entire article about Eugene Cernan be transferred to Eugene Cernan and that the Eugene Andrew Cernan page either be made a redirect page or deleted entirely.

I work for a planetarium that is named for Captain Cernan. I know Captain Cernan personally. Although like most everyone else, he HAS a middle name, he has never gone by Eugene Andrew Cernan. Sometimes he has gone by Eugene A. Cernan, but never the full three names.

If Wikipedia is striving for consistency -- and it should! -- then please look at every other article you have on astronauts and tell me that Captain Cernan's article should still go by "Eugene Andrew Cernan." For reasons that escape me, Wikipedia didn't follow its own policy when this article was first created. Subsequent improvements to the article were built on an article with an incorrect name. Two wrongs do not make a right!

Bart 01:08, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

 * You can post this at WP:RM to get a proper discussion. For the record, I would support a move back to the simple name (without the middle name), since he is better known this way and there is no need for disambiguation with other Eugene Cernans. Fram 14:13, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

 * I think it should be Gene Cernan like he's usually called. AFterall, Buzz Aldrin and not Edwin Aldrin is the name of that article. And Gus Grissom, not Virgil Grissom. 70.51.9.86 05:02, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

 * I concur with the post. --68.51.72.144 (talk) 16:24, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

According to one of his NASA bios (Personal: Born Edwin Eugene Aldrin, Jr., January 20, 1930, Montclair, New Jersey. Later, legally changed his name to "Buzz Aldrin". Married, three children (from a previous marriage).), Buzz actually had his legal name changed to Buzz. Phil Konstantin (talk) 04:59, 21 July 2009 (UTC)

Format
Can someone make this more like the format of the other Apollo astronaut articlesPiersmasterson (talk) 16:33, 19 December 2007 (UTC)

Not sure how to do this, as don't know how to add a new subject, 'format' is closest. What's with the grammatical sloppiness in the Apollo astronaut articles? Specifically, I have changed twice, things like "last person on the moon", "last people on the moon" etc to "last man on the moon". Why are we changing back to "people"? 'People' is grammatically sloppy, vague and imprecise. Language can be precise. People can refer to Men, women, children. Children can then be teenage girls, teenage boys, then baby girls, baby boys etc. So, did 2 baby girls land on the moon? They are 'people' after all. No. Be SPECIFIC. Yes, most adults know that men landed on the moon and don't even think about it, but any children hearing about the moon landings hear or read 'people', it's only when they hear male names do they make the connection that they were men. I will have to look on shuttle missions wiki articles, I would hope they would be specific, instead of saying "10 people flew to the ISS" one would hope to see "6 men and 4 women flew to the ISS". I am going to change it back to who the SPECIFIC type of human, men, man, back. Please do not change it back, unless you want the disapproval from your English teacher. Honestly. This is grade school standards folks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 104.159.75.97 (talk) 22:12, 2 February 2019 (UTC)

Armstrong/Cernan/Purdue
I just reverted a good faith edit, noting that Cernan was "the last Boilermaker" on the moon. It seemed awkward, even if you included a statement explaining what that meant. I just added a sentence mentioning that Armstrong and Cernan were both Purdue grads, but could not find a really appropriate place to add it. I certainly didn't want a trivia section, so I dumped it at the end. I still don't like it, but I am hoping that someone might think of a better place to add it, without creating a trivia section.

Birth name = ?
Simply said: Did Eugene 'Gene' Andrew Cernan always have had that name or did he once had another name which was changed later to the actual form? What is his birth name?

"Eugene 'Gene' Andrew Cernan [...] native of Chicago, Illinois, son of a Czech mother and a Slovak father, he received his father's name, originally spelled Ondrej Čerňan (IPA: [ˈondrɛj ˈtʃɛrɲan]). "

Does that mean: "Eugene 'Gene' Andrew Cernan (name from birth on) was [particularly] named after his father, Andrew Cernan (born Ondrej Čerňan)." ? Or does that mean: "Eugene 'Gene' Andrew Cernan (born Ondrej Čerňan), was originally named [fully] after his father('s born name) Ondrej Čerňan." ?

It's not clear what the cited sequence means (and there's no source citation in there for that, clearifying it) - whether the astronaut had originally [by birth] received the same name like his father, who's name always was and is Ondrej Čerňan, but that the astronaut later changed his own name and adding the "Eugene"; or simply if the astronaut by birth was named after his father Eugene Andrew Cernan, who's name originally was spelled Ondrej Čerňan, but changed it after immigration to the US to Andrew Cernan, before the birth of his son, the astronaut... The difference is whether (it is meant that) the astronaut was originally spelled "Ondrej Čerňan" (without the "Eugene"), or his father (who's name then later would have been Andrew Cernan, right?). If the astronaut originally was born as Ondrej Čerňan, it should be clearly expressed that way; and if the astronaut's name from birth on always was Eugene 'Gene' Andrew Cernan, but that only just his father, Andrew Cernan, originally was born "Ondrej Čerňan", that should be clearified otherwise, simply by just stating like it is in other biography-articles, that Eugene 'Gene' Andrew Cernan was born to [mother's changed name] (originally spelled [mother's born name]) and Andrew Cernan (originally spelled Ondrej Čerňan) - if this would be that way, it could be clearly seen for everyone - without it must be written down anymore that unspecific -, that the son was named after his father, but not completely [otherwise this could indicate to think that either the astronaut was originally named Andrew Cernan, jr. or that his father changed his own born name Ondrej Čerňan after the birth of his son to Eugene Andrew Cernan (if he would have done it before the birth, his son's name would be Eugene Andrew Cernan, jr. - although this of course would be hypothetic, because it seems crazy to think about the possibility that one's own name changes (getting/losing a "jr.", etc.) just because someone else in your family changes his/her name to or from your own one's...)]. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.90.73.103 (talk) 17:57, 13 May 2011 (UTC)

edit request
In the Apollo program section: the word "twice" needs to be replaced with "three times."

If Cernan is "the only person to have descended toward the Moon in the lunar lander twice" - how did Lovell and Young get to the lunar surface their second time?

Ammobox (talk) 20:22, 20 January 2016 (UTC)

 * ❌ You apparently misunderstand what happened in the Apollo program. Cernan was indeed the only person to have descended toward the Moon in the lunar lander twice: once on Apollo 10 (only a rehearsal, not a real landing); then again on Apollo 17. The sentence is correct as it stands. And "three times" is incorrect; he never went to the Moon a third time.
 * "Travel to the Moon" does not mean the same thing as "descend toward the Moon in the lunar lander."
 * James Lovell did not ever get to the lunar surface, despite having traveled to the Moon twice; Apollo 8 was only a lunar orbital mission (no lander was included); and his Apollo 13 mission was aborted before he could land; on that flight the spacecraft only swung around the Moon to get back home.
 * John Young was also on Apollo 10, but he stayed in the Command Module and did not descend in the lander with Cernan; that was done by Apollo 10 commander Thomas Stafford, who never returned to the Moon. Young only landed on the Moon once, in Apollo 16. JustinTime55 (talk) 20:52, 20 January 2016 (UTC)

From the James McDivitt article:
 * When the selection of Gene Cernan to command the Apollo 17 mission was announced, McDivitt confronted Kraft over not being consulted about it, and threatened to resign unless Cernan was removed. Kraft consulted with Slayton, who gave of a January 1971 helicopter accident that Cernan had been involved in.

Xdime

XDIME is an xHTML Device Independent Markup Extensions. The acronym originally stood for XHTML with Device Independent Markup Extensions. It is a device independent authoring language. It allows content to be created once but delivered to the myriad traditional and mobile devices that can connect to the Web. Device-specific characteristics of a web site are captured separately as a set of policies that tailor the user experience to the particular type of device being used. Page layout, styling and media, such as images, are examples of resources that are controlled by policies. Style-related policies make use of the W3C CSS 2 specification.

When a device accesses a site authored using XDIME, the markup and the related policies are subjected to Content Adaptation. This creates device-specific materials from the authored content and policies. The device-specific materials are appropriate for the particular device being used to access a site.

XDIME has been in existence since the year 2000. Early in its life it was known as MAML and Marlin before finally gaining the name XDIME. Originally devised by Volantis Systems, the language has appeared in a number of products and services including Volantis' Multi Channel Server (MCS), and IBM's Mobile Portal Accelerator. It is at the heart of dozens of mobile networks across the globe.

The latest version, XDIME 2, is based on the W3C Device Independent Authoring Language (DIAL) specification. DIAL itself includes some of the latest W3C specifications, including XHTML 2.

XDIME-CP is a version of XDIME 2 that is particularly appropriate for content partners providing materials for an operator portal. This version allows the operator to retain some level of control over the look and feel of their portal while simplifying the task of integration.

The original version of XDIME, now known as XDIME 1, is based on XHTML 1.1 and a very early draft of the XForms specification, also from W3C.

Any version of XDIME can be used with a wide range of server-side technologies when creating applications. Ruby/Rails, PHP, Python, Perl and any of the Java web application technologies can be used.

Nadja (film)

Nadja is a 1994 American horror film written and directed by Michael Almereyda, starring Elina Löwensohn in the title role and Peter Fonda as Abraham Van Helsing.

Nadja is a vampire film which draws many characters from Bram Stoker's Dracula, yet treats genre elements in an understated arthouse style. It received mixed reviews from critics.

Plot
Count Dracula dies from a stake in his heart. His daughter, Nadja, shows up to claim the body, hoping that his death will free her from the life he has forced on her. She has the body cremated and prepares to take the ashes to Brooklyn and pay a visit to her twin brother Edgar. Before she departs, she stops for a drink and meets Lucy, a similarly disillusioned young woman. They leave the bar and have sex.

Following his killing of Dracula, Van Helsing has been jailed, and his nephew, Jim (who is also Lucy's husband) bails him out. When Van Helsing learns that Dracula's body has been removed from the morgue, he enlists his nephew's help to destroy it properly, and thus ensure Dracula will never return.

Meanwhile, Nadja visits Edgar, who is sick, and meets his nurse and live-in lover, Cassandra. Nadja persuades Cassandra to move Edgar to her apartment and plans to heal him by transfusing him with plasma from the blood of shark embryos; Edgar revives enough to drink some of Nadja's blood.

Lucy has fallen under Nadja's trance. She leads Jim and Van Helsing to Edgar's house, where Nadja is staying with Renfield. Edgar awakens and warns Cassandra that she is in danger. Cassandra, revealed to be Van Helsing's daughter, attempts to escape with Nadja pursuing her, Lucy pursuing Nadja, and Jim pursuing Lucy. Cassandra runs into a gas station, where two mechanics attempt to protect her, but Nadja mesmerizes them and kills one of them. A policeman enters the gas station and shoots Nadja in the abdomen.

Edgar, who is improving, unites with the Van Helsings to stop Nadja. He receives a "psychic fax" from Nadja, telling him that she is injured and must return to Transylvania with Cassandra. As they approach the castle, Nadja begins a transfusion of Cassandra's blood while she sleeps. Edgar and Helsing drive a stake through Nadja's heart. Lucy is released, Nadja is destroyed, and Cassandra awakens.

Despite the assumed happy ending, Nadja narrates the epilogue: "They cut off my head... burned my body... no one knew... no one suspected that I was now alive in Cassandra's body. Edgar and I were married at City Hall... there is a better way to live."

Production
Nadja was written by Michael Almereyda after a planned project called Fever (centered around Edgar Allan Poe) failed to attract financing. The 1928 surrealist novel Nadja by André Breton served as an inspiration for the thematic approach, with Almereyda also studying several classic vampire films and lore. Even with a comparatively more commercial script than Fever, the production still faced hurdles in acquiring financing due to the decision to film Nadja in black and white rather than color, which was deemed necessary as both a cost-saving measure and thematically important. When financing fell through, Lynch financed the entire film himself.

To attain a "blurry, out of focus" look to convey the point of view of the living dead, Almereyda shot the film using a Fisher-Price PixelVision camcorder. Almereyda attempted to make the film in a similar style to Roger Corman, with the Corman-produced Poe films a particular source of inspiration for not only style and tone, but frugal film-making. The movie was filmed over the course of five and a half weeks in New York City. An abandoned hospital on Central Park West was used to simulate a Transylvanian castle.

Reception
On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, Nadja holds an approval rating of 64% based on 25 reviews, with an average rating of 5.8/10. The website's critics' consensus reads: "Nadja approaches the Dracula legend from an idiosyncratic angle - and with just enough visual style to overcome uneven storytelling."

Roger Ebert, writing for the Chicago Sun-Times, gave the film a rating of two-and-a-half out of four stars, characterizing it as "an example of a genre we can call Deadpan Noir. It's the kind of movie that deals with unspeakable subjects while keeping a certain ironic distance and using dialogue that seems funny, although the characters never seem in on the joke."

Digital Manga

Digital Manga is a California-based publishing company that licenses and releases Japanese manga, anime, and related merchandise in the English language.

Digital Manga also owns and operates eManga, a digital publishing site for manga and light novels, that publishes books and e-book editions of works from other publishers.

The non-publishing division includes Pop Japan Travel (a tour service) and several e-retail sites for books and for import products, including Akadot Retail and Yaoi Club.

Since 2011, Digital Manga has utilized Kickstarter for funds. The first Kickstarter project was to reprint Osamu Tezuka's titles, and the most successful project to be funded was to print the Finder series by Yamane Ayano.

Digital Manga Publishing
The company has co-published manga with publishing house Dark Horse Comics, including Berserk, Hellsing, The Ring, and Trigun.

Imprints

 * The DMP Books imprint is used for general-audience manga. The company prints how-to books on drawing manga, as well as online tutorials and contests, under the "Manga Academy" imprint.

 * Akadot Retail was the official retail store for Juné and Digital Manga Publishing. The shop imported manga, clothing, figures, magazines, and miscellaneous merchandise from Japan.

 * Juné is DMP's yaoi (male-male romance, also known as boys' love or BL) line of manga, novels, and other related books. Until April 2006, all of DMP's yaoi manga bore the DMP label, but starting with The Art of Loving by Eiki Eiki, a new design was displayed on the dust cover, featuring a white rose beneath Juné's text logo. The imprint was named after the Japanese magazine June, which in turn was named after Jean Genet, particularly the Japanese pronunciation of "Genet" as "Jooneh". Some Juné titles originally published by Taiyoh Tosho or Oakla Publishing are co-branded with the Japanese publisher, whose logo appears on the spine. As of October 2016, the imprint Juné and the store Akadot joined forces to become a singular shop. The new store, purely under the Juné Manga name, sells all DMI's forms of yaoi in both print and digital titles (including 801 Media and Doki Doki titles).

 * 801 Media is a division of Digital Manga, Inc. and sister company to DMP, formed in 2006 to publish more explicit, uncensored yaoi titles. These titles are available on the new Juné website as of October 2016. In June 2016, Libre Publishing terminated their partnership with Digital Manga Publishing, affecting the release of their yaoi titles.

 * In April 2009, DMP announced the DokiDoki line in cooperation with the Japanese publisher Shinshokan, to license shounen-ai (male-male romance) and shōjo (girls') manga from Shinshokan's Wings, Dear, and Dear+ anthologies. The name DokiDoki comes from the onomatopoeia for a heartbeat in Japanese.

 * Project-H is the hentai (pornographic) imprint of Digital Manga Inc.'s 801 Media division. It publishes seinen (young adult men's) hentai manga.

 * Lilyka is Digital Manga Inc.'s yuri (female-female romance) manga imprint, specializing in dōjinshi (self-published) works. The imprint was formed in 2019.
