Central nervous system depression

Central nervous system (CNS) depression is a physiological state that can result in a decreased rate of breathing, decreased heart rate, and loss of consciousness, possibly leading to coma or death.

It is the result of inhibited or suppressed brain activity.

Causes
Depression of the central nervous system is generally caused by the use of depressant drugs such as ethanol, opioids, barbiturates, benzodiazepines, general anesthetics, and anticonvulsants such as pregabalin used to treat epilepsy.

Drug overdose is often caused by combining two or more depressant drugs, although overdose is also possible by consuming a large dose of one depressant drug. Central nervous system depression can also be caused by the accidental or intentional inhalation or ingestion of certain volatile chemicals such as butanone (contained in plastic cement) or isopropyl alcohol. Other causes of central nervous system depression are metabolic disturbances such as hypoglycemia.

Comparison
In a study comparing the central nervous depression due to supra-therapeutic doses of triazolam (a benzodiazepine), pentobarbital (a barbiturate) and gamma-hydroxybutyric acid (GHB), it appeared as if GHB had the strongest dose-effect function. Since GHB has a high correlation between its dose and its central nervous system depression, it has a high risk of accidental overdose. In the case of accidental overdose of GHB, patients can become drowsy, fall asleep and may enter a coma. Although GHB had higher sedative effects at high doses as compared to triazolam and pentobarbital, it had less of an amnestic effect. Arousal of subjects who received GHB sometimes even required a painful stimulus; this was not seen in patients who received triazolam or pentobarbital group. During the heavy sedation with GHB, the subjects maintained normal respiration and blood pressure. This is often not the case with opioids as they cause respiratory depression.

Treatment
There are two antidotes that are frequently used in the hospital setting and these are naloxone and flumazenil. Naloxone is an opioid antagonist and reverses the central nervous depressive effects seen in opioid overdose. In the setting of a colonoscopy, naloxone is rarely administered but when it is administered, its half-life is shorter than some common opioid agonists. Therefore, the patient may still exhibit central nervous system depression after the naloxone has been cleared. Naloxone is typically administered in short intervals with relatively small doses in order to prevent the occurrence of withdrawal, pain, and sympathetic nervous system activation. Flumazenil is a benzodiazepine antagonist and blocks the binding of benzodiazepines to gamma-aminobutyric acid receptors. Similarly to naloxone, flumazenil has a short half-life, and this needs to be taken into account because the patient may exhibit central nervous depression after the antidote has been cleared. Benzodiazepines are used in the treatment of seizures and subsequently, the administration of flumazenil may result in seizures. Therefore, slow administration of flumazenil is necessary to prevent the occurrence of a seizure. These agents are rarely used in the setting of a colonoscopy as 98.8% of colonoscopies use sedatives but only 0.8% of them result in the administration of one of these antidotes. Even if they are rarely used in colonoscopies they are important in preventing the patient from entering a coma or developing respiratory depression when sedatives are not properly dosed. Outside of the colonoscopy setting, these agents are used for other procedures and in the case of drug overdose.

Simon chan
Supposedly the lead singer of "The Simon Chan Band", which gets 0 google hits. The rest of the article is either nn or at best unverified. A search reveals that Simon Chan does exist, but it portrays a totally different character. Another Simon Chan was featured on the ABC Queensland radio programme Conversation Hour: "Here's a relatively unknown chap… a barrister, one Simon Chan." I say delete unless someone conducts a total rewrite. Punkmorten 17:48, 12 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete as the Simon Chan band doesn't meet WP:music. The Music Australia site which has records of every Australian musical act of any note doesn't have records of the Simon Chan band .A Google search for the Simon Chan band doesn't have any results see . Almost an A7 speedy as none of the other biographical details listed namely former Chinese soldier and martial artist are an assertion of notability. Capitalistroadster 00:13, 13 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete as I can't even tell if this is simply a vanity page or a simple hoax. The lack of independent support for this entry seals the deal, unfortunately.  If this person is legitimately worthy of inclusion, the article will need to be rewritten with supporting information and further clarity. el_amante 20:45, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

 * I've never agreed with the rigidly binary interpretation of AfDs because it's in obvious conflict with the idea of Wikipedia not being a rule of law. People constantly refer to AfDs to build consensus in issues regarding article moves and mergers. As long as people do this, I'm going to vote for the option I actually want rather than voting to delete. But if any admin closing this vote interprets my vote as anything other than literally merge and redirect, then my vote defaults to delete. / Peter Isotalo 18:19, 13 October 2005 (UTC)
 * I'm with you on this one. I believe there are three discreet and separate options: keep, delete, and merge (or transwiki). None of these ought to be considered a vote for the other, and at count time, none of the votes for one ought to be merged with the votes for another. And Hipocrite is not entirely correct. Not all closing admins count "merge" as "keep". Denni ☯ 05:09, 14 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Merge and redirect to diluent. Denni ☯ 05:06, 13 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge to Diluent. Either article is a stub as it stands, but I would merge Dilutant into Diluent because Diluent gets significantly more Google hits... --Daedalus-Prime 23:38, 17 October 2005 (UTC)

Paul Werner Gast

Paul Werner Gast (September 11, 1930 – May 16, 1973) was an American geochemist and geologist.

He was born in Chicago to German immigrants and attended Wheaton College, Illinois, whence he graduated in 1952. He earned a Ph.D. from Columbia University in 1957. After graduation, he taught at the University of Minnesota until 1965 when he became professor of geology at Columbia.

In 1969 Paul Gast assumed leadership of the geo-science management of the Manned Spacecraft Center in preparation for Apollo mission sample return from the Moon. He served as chief scientist of the Apollo Lunar Science Staff. He was one of the science consultant group known unofficially as the "Four Horsemen," along with Jim Arnold, Bob Walker and Gerry Wasserburg.

He died at the age of 43, being survived by his wife, Joyce Rinehart, and two sons and a daughter. During his career he pioneered the study of rare earth elements in examining the crust, mantle, and interior of the planet. He led the development of the use of rubidium-strontium and uranium-lead radiometric dating methods for rocks, particularly for samples returned from the Moon. His examinations of trace elements resulted in new understanding of how volcanic fluids originate.

Awards and honors

 * Geochemistry Fellow of the Geochemical Society.
 * V. M. Goldschmidt Award of the Geochemical Society, 1972.
 * James Furman Kemp medal, 1973.
 * Space Science Award, 1973.
 * Geochemical society named their Paul W. Gast Lecture Series after him.
 * The publication "Trace Elements in Igneous Petrology" was published in his memory.

Robert Edward Chambliss

Robert Edward Chambliss (January 14, 1904 – October 29, 1985), also known as Dynamite Bob, was a white supremacist terrorist convicted in 1977 of murder for his role as conspirator in the 16th Street Baptist Church bombing in 1963. A member of the United Klans of America, Chambliss also firebombed the houses of several African American families in Alabama.

Investigation and conviction
A May 13, 1965 memo to Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) director J. Edgar Hoover identified Chambliss, Bobby Frank Cherry, Herman Frank Cash and Thomas Edwin Blanton Jr. as suspects in the 16th Street Baptist Church bombing that killed four young African-American girls.

The investigation was originally closed in 1968; no charges were filed. Years later it was found that the FBI had accumulated evidence against the named suspects that had not been revealed to the prosecutors by order of J. Edgar Hoover. Edgar Hoover stopped and shut down the investigation in 1968. The files were used by Alabama attorney general Bill Baxley to reopen the case in 1971. In 1977, Chambliss was convicted of first degree murder for the bombing in the death of Carol Denise McNair. He was sentenced to life imprisonment. Chambliss died in Lloyd Noland Hospital and Health Center in Birmingham on October 29, 1985, still proclaiming his innocence. He was 81.

Chambliss served his sentence in a prison near Montgomery, Alabama.

Manfredonia Calcio

Manfredonia Calcio S.r.l. Sportiva Dilettantistica commonly known as Manfredonia Calcio or just Manfredonia is an Italian association football club, based in Manfredonia, in the Province of Foggia, Apulia. Currently it plays in Serie D.

Foundation
The club, founded in 1932 as Associazione Sportiva Manfredonia. Manfredonia is known for having been the first Italian professional team to play its home matches on a synthetic football field. The club also used Polisportiva Manfredonia as its denomination in 1940–41.

Manfredonia returned to play in the professional leagues only in 2004 (as S.S. Manfredonia Calcio S.r.l.), following 64 years of absence from Serie C. In 2004–05 Manfredonia won promotion from Serie C2 to Serie C1, but finished last in its division in 2007–08 and was directly relegated back down to Lega Pro Seconda Divisione (ex-Serie C2). The club also won the appeal to remain in the professional league in July 2008. The club was initially fail the financial inspection by the Commissione di Vigilanza sulle Società di Calcio (Co.Vi.So.C.) of Italian Football Federation. At the end of the 2009–10 Lega Pro Seconda Divisione season, the company had major financial problems that led the team to failure. According to FIGC, the club had a capital shortfall of €918,661, in May 2010. The membership of the old company in FIGC was finally revoked in 2013.

Refoundation
Thanks to Article 52 of N.O.I.F., a phoenix club was founded in the summer of 2010 as A.S.D. Manfredonia Football 1932 and began the season in the Eccellenza Apulia. In the following year the club was renamed as A.S.D. Manfredonia Calcio.

In July 2016 the football club was incorporated again as a società a responsabilità limitata (means limited liability company): Manfredonia Calcio S.r.l. Sportiva Dilettantistica.

Colors and badge
The team's colors are light blue and white.

Rivalry
Manfredonia had a local rivalry with Foggia Calcio. They both from the same province. In 2007 the match ended with multiple injuries among the journalists.

Society of Woman Geographers

The Society of Woman Geographers was established in 1925 at a time when women were excluded from membership in most professional organizations, such as the Explorers Club, who would not admit women until 1981. It is based in Washington, D.C., and has 500 members. Groups are located in Chicago, Florida, Los Angeles, New York, and San Francisco.

The society was organized by four friends, Gertrude Emerson Sen, Marguerite Harrison, Blair Niles and Gertrude Mathews Shelby, to bring together women interested in geography, world exploration, anthropology and related fields. Membership was restricted to women who had "done distinctive work whereby they have added to the world's store of knowledge concerning the countries on which they have specialized, and have published in magazines or in book form a record of their work."

The society's first president was Harriet Chalmers Adams, who held the post from December 1925 until 1933. Marion Stirling Pugh served as its president twice, in 1960–1963 and 1969–1972. Famous members included: historian Mary Ritter Beard, photographer Margaret Bourke-White, novelist Fannie Hurst, mountain climber Annie Smith Peck, anthropologist Margaret Mead, Eleanor Roosevelt, and author Grace Gallatin Seton Thompson.

Gold Medal
The Society's Gold Medal is its highest honor. It is awarded to a member whose "original, innovative, or pioneering contributions are of major significance in understanding the world's cultures and environment." The first gold medal was presented to Amelia Earhart in 1933. The medal was designed by sculptor Lucille Sinclair Douglass, and shows Winged Victory on the arc of the world.

(2000), Lara Croft: Tomb Raider (2001), Daredevil (2003), Freddy vs. Jason (2003), and Sin City (2005). He is also known for his frequent collaborations with director David Twohy, having scored Below (2002) and the Riddick franchise. He is an eight-time recipient of the BMI Film Music Award, including the Richard Kirk Career Achievement Award, and an AACTA Award winner.

Early life
Revell attended Auckland Grammar School, where he finished his final year in 7A. As an orderly in an insane asylum in Australia in the late 70's, he and one of the patients formed one of industrial music's first bands, SPK, as an outgrowth of his interest in music therapy. He spent the next decade making music that ranged from extreme to beautiful to academic and earning a reputation for wild stage stunts that included accidentally setting an audience member on fire with a flamethrower. Revell's break came in 1989, when he scored the Australian film Dead Calm. A Hollywood agent, Richard Kraft, heard it and tracked him down. Since then, he moved to Hollywood, working with everything from 85-piece orchestras for Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, to Tuvan singers and Armenian stringed instruments for The Crow, to brassy jazz and hip-hop rhythm loops for Fled, with Laurence Fishburne and Stephen Baldwin.

Education and training
Revell is a classically trained pianist and French horn player, but also graduated from the University of Auckland with degrees in economics and political science.

Vocational pursuits
He worked as a regional planner in both Australia and Indonesia, and was also an orderly in an Australian psychiatric hospital.

Musical career
Revell was a founding member of the industrial music band SPK, playing keyboards and percussion. The SPK single, "In Flagrante Delicto", was the basis for the Dead Calm film score (his first) that won him an Australian Film Industry award in 1989.

Most of Revell's subsequent projects were film scores. But in 1997, he teamed up with Roger Mason to create a non-film music album Vision II – Spirit of Rumi, released through New York based Angel Records. The two coproduced, supplied some of the instrumental accompaniment, and set to music 11 poems by renowned 13th century Persian poet Jalāl ad-Dīn Muhammad Rūmī. Vocals were provided by Noa, Lori Garson, Esther Dobong'Na Essiene a.k.a. Estha Divine, and the late Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan.

In 2002–03, he assisted the rock band Evanescence on their debut album, Fallen, in which he is credited for doing most of the string arrangements. He has also done string arrangements for Ludus, Stefy, Biffy Clyro and The Wombats.

Style
Revell's musical style is predominantly electronic and computer-based, yet often utilises classical instruments or entire arrangements for certain pieces (similar to his contemporary counterparts, Hans Zimmer and Mark Isham). The orchestral scores that Revell has composed have changed throughout his career—from Bernard Herrmann-like pieces to Ennio Morricone-influenced works. "Whenever I write songs, I always have visual images in mind, and I have always changed styles dramatically. That's not good for a long-term rock career, but it's good if you want to score films." "I'm trying to bring a dose of class to Hollywood," he said. "I want my music to be the real thing instead of some terrible synthesized thing thrown together in a week. I don't want to sound just like everybody else."

Revell's music is often re-used from movie to movie and in more recent times he has collaborated with other artists on their albums. After the success of his soundtrack on Red Planet where he used the voice of French singer Emma Shapplin to back up and often lead his score, he collaborated with her on her own album Etterna, producing all of her songs. He has recently been interviewed for the independent documentary Finding Kraftland.

Collaborators
Revell has been assisted in sound design by Brian Williams, who creates dark ambient music under the German language black humorous pseudonym Lustmord.

Awards and nominations
On 18 May 2005, Revell was honored at the annual BMI Film & TV Awards with the Richard Kirk Award for Outstanding Career Achievement.

Biography
Unfortunately I was unable to locate a good biography about this scientist. There were indications that he may have attended Wheaton College, then worked at the University of Minnesota (1962) and Columbia University. He apparently served with the GEOSECS in some capacity. He was described as a magmatist, and several of his papers dealt with trace elements in materials. But I couldn't solidify this information sufficiently. If anybody has better sources, please include the information on this page. Thanks. — RJH 17:58, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

Netsukuku

Netsukuku is an experimental peer-to-peer routing system, developed by the FreakNet MediaLab in 2005, created to build up a distributed network, anonymous and censorship-free, fully independent but not necessarily separated from the Internet, without the support of any server, ISP and no central authority.

Netsukuku is designed to handle up to 2128 nodes without any servers or central systems, with minimal CPU and memory resources. This mesh network can be built using existing network infrastructure components such as Wi-Fi.

The project has been in slow development since 2005, never abandoning a beta state. It has also never been tested on large scale.

Operation
As of December 2011, the latest theoretical work on Netsukuku could be found in the author's master thesis Scalable Mesh Networks and the Address Space Balancing problem. The following description takes into account only the basic concepts of the theory.

Netsukuku uses a custom routing protocol called QSPN (Quantum Shortest Path Netsukuku) that strives to be efficient and not taxing on the computational capabilities of each node. The current version of the protocol is QSPNv2. It adopts a hierarchical structure. 256 nodes are grouped inside a gnode (group node), 256 gnodes are grouped in a single ggnode (group of group nodes), 256 ggnodes are grouped in a single gggnode, and so on. This offers a set of advantages main documentation. The protocol relies on the fact that the nodes are not mobile and that the network structure does not change quickly, as several minutes may be required before a change in the network is propagated. However, a node that joins the network is immediately able to communicate using the routes of its neighbors. When a node joins the mesh network, Netsukuku automatically adapts and all other nodes come to know the fastest and most efficient routes to communicate with the newcomer. Each node has no more privileges or restrictions than the other nodes.

The domain name system (DNS) is replaced by a decentralised and distributed system called ANDNA (Abnormal Netsukuku Domain Name Anarchy). The ANDNA database is included in the Netsukuku system, so each node includes such database that occupies at most 355 kilobytes of memory.

Simplifying, ANDNA works as follows: to resolve a symbolic name the host applies a function Hash on its behalf. The Hash function returns an address that the host contacts asking for the resolution generated by the hash. The contacted node receives a request, searches in its ANDNA database for the address associated with the name and returns it to the applicant host. Recording works in a similar way: for example, let's suppose that the node X wants to register the address FreakNet.andna; X calculates the hash name and obtains the address 11.22.33.44 associated with node Y. The node X contacts Y asking to register 11.22.33.44 as its own. Y stores the request in its database and any request for resolution of 11.22.33.44 hash, will answer with the X's address. The protocol is a little more complex than this, as the system provides a public/private key to authenticate the hosts and prevent unauthorized changes to the ANDNA database. Furthermore, the protocol provides redundancy in the database to make the protocol resistant to failure and also provides for the migration of the database if the network topology changes. The protocol does not provide for the possibility of revoking a symbolic name; after a certain period of inactivity (currently 3 days) it is simply deleted from the database. The protocol also prevents a single host from recording an excessive number of symbolic names (at present 256 names) in order to prevent spammers from storing a high number of terms to perform cybersquatting.

Pink pigeon

The pink pigeon (Nesoenas mayeri) is a species of pigeon in the family Columbidae endemic to Mauritius. The pink pigeon nearly became extinct in the 1970s and the 1990s and is still very rare. It is the only Mascarene pigeon that has not become extinct. It was on the brink of extinction in 1991 when only 10 individuals remained, but its numbers have increased due to the efforts of the Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust since 1977. While the population remains at below 500 birds as of 2011, the IUCN downlisted the species from Critically endangered to Endangered on the IUCN Red List in 2000, and then downlisted it again to Vulnerable in 2018.

Taxonomy and evolution
Initially classified as a true pigeon, the pink pigeon was reclassified in a monotypic genus by Tommaso Salvadori. Recent DNA analyses suggest its nearest relative is the geographically close Malagasy turtle dove (Streptopelia picturatus), and it has thus been suggested that it be placed in the genus Streptopelia, which mostly contains turtle doves. However, the two species form a distinct group that cannot unequivocally be assigned to either Streptopelia or Columba, and placing both species in Nesoenas may best reflect the fact that they seem to belong to a distinct evolutionary lineage. This classification has been followed here. The extinct Réunion pink pigeon is now considered a subspecies.

Description
An adult pink pigeon is about 36-38 cm from beak to tail and 350 grams in weight. Pink pigeons have pale pinkish-grey plumage on their head, shoulders and underside, along with pink feet. The beak is a dark pink color with a white tip. They have dark brown wings, and a broad, rust-colored tail. Their eyes are dark brown surrounded by an eye-ring of red skin. Newly hatched pigeons have sparse, downy-white feathers and closed eyes.

The voice of the pink pigeon consists of a flight call that is a short, hardened "hoo hoo". The territorial call of the male pink pigeon is a series of coos.

Distribution and habitat
The species is endemic to the Mascarene island of Mauritius, a small island to the east of Madagascar in the Indian Ocean, and the tiny predator-free island of Île aux Aigrettes off its eastern coast. A subspecies, the Réunion pink pigeon, became extinct on the neighbouring Reunion Island around 1700.

As of 2016, there are five locations places where wild populations of the pink pigeon can be found. Four of these locations belong to Black River Gorges National Park and the fifth to Isle aux Aigrettes. All are monitored by the Mauritian Wildlife Foundation. The species is not migratory.

The species prefers upland evergreen forests, but is equally at home in coastal forests as long as the vegetation is native and not dominated by introduced species such as Chinese Guava (Psidium cattleianum) or the privet (Ligustrum robustum). Destruction of such primal forests has been a major reason for its decline.

Behavior and ecology
The breeding season of the pink pigeon begins in August–September, although birds may breed all year round. The male courts the female with a "step and bow" display. Mating is generally monogamous, with the pair making a flimsy platform nest and defending a small area around it (even though the pigeons initially had no natural predators, one mating pair must defend their territory from other mating pairs). Pink pigeons generally mate for life. The female usually lays two white eggs, and incubation duration is two weeks. The male incubates during the day, and the female during night and early day. They may breed often, laying five to 10 eggs in a season; breeding only pauses in the wild whilst in molt, which may be full or a partial-body/head molt.

There are more males than females in a population due to greater life expectancy of the male (about five years more) and in the wild a higher chance of the female being predated. One reason for the difference in life span is that producing eggs is extremely metabolically taxing, and since female birds are nearly constantly producing eggs (even when they are not fertilized, just like domestic chickens do) this can end up totaling to a large metabolic tax on the female's survival. In captivity, males remain fertile to an age of 17–18 years, females to an age of 10–11 years.

Life history timeline:
 * 1 – 7 days: Chicks eyes closed, fed entirely on crop milk.
 * 7 – 10 days: Chicks undergo a dietary transformation to solid food.
 * 2 – 4 weeks: Chicks fledge, but remain parent-fed.
 * 4 - 6/7 weeks: Chicks remain in the nest. After this, the chicks leave the nest.

Diet
The pink pigeon is herbivorous, feeding on both exotic and native plants - consuming buds, flowers, leaves, shoots, fruits and seeds. These birds exhibit ground-feeding behaviors, moving and turning over leaf litter in order to find food and grit (for use as gizzard stones).

Because the pink pigeon's natural habitat has become degraded, natural food sources have in the past been deemed insufficient to sustain the wild population or allow successful breeding and chick-rearing. The MWF and other organizations are providing supplemental feeding stations that offer diet items like whole wheat. To prevent other bird species from plundering this feed, special feeding platforms have been designed that allow access primarily to pink pigeons only.

Conservation
The pink pigeon is currently classified as Vulnerable by the IUCN, having been downlisted from Endangered in 2018 and Critically Endangered in 2000. Due to habitat destruction and introduced predators, the population had dropped to 10 in 1991. The captive breeding and reintroduction program initiated and supported by the Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust and largely carried out by the Mauritian Wildlife Foundation has resulted in a population of about 400 in the wild in 2018, as well as a healthy captive population as backup.

Several foundations and organizations have contributed to conservation efforts. In addition to direct conservation efforts such as captive breeding, genetic research, and supplementary feeding efforts, more general research on the species may aid in the formation of more applicable conservation actions.

Since October 2021, N. mayeri has been classified as Critically Depleted by the IUCN.

Threats
Habitat degradation, introduced predators, and wildlife disease are the major ongoing threats to the pink pigeon's survival. Only 2% of the native forest remains in Mauritius, with the majority of these remaining forests on upland slopes around the Black River Gorge National Park.

Common predators include the crab-eating macaque (Macaca fascicularis), the small Asian mongoose (Urva auropunctata), rats, and feral cats. Invasive plant species, such as the Chinese guava and privet, dominate native forest plants, preventing their growth. Without these native plant species, the pink pigeon finds it hard to locate sound nesting locations or food sources. Extreme weather events such as cyclones may also further the degradation of habitat.

The feeding stations that provide supplementary feed may accelerate the spread of disease between individuals, who congregate at greater than normal numbers at stations. This may apply to trichomonosis, originally brought to Mauritius by introduced pigeons. Feeding stations therefore have to be closely managed to reduce the associated risks.

An ongoing concern faced by the pink pigeon, as by many endangered species that exist in small remnant populations, is inbreeding depression.

In culture
The book Golden Bats and Pink Pigeons by Gerald Durrell describes the conservation efforts.

Mauritius has published a series of postage stamps depicting the pink pigeon.

RfC: Premiere year: 1989 or 1990?
Should this article say that Bride of Re-Animator premiered/was released in 1989 or 1990? — Matthew  - (talk) 21:09, 12 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Comment: As I type this, the first sentence in the article for Bride of Re-Animator describes it as a 1990 film, and the page's infobox lists a more specific premiere date of September 8, 1990 at TIFF. However, there are multiple sources which refer to the film as having premiered or been released in 1989, including the following:
 * Barker, Clive. Clive Barker's A-Z of Horror: Compiled by Stephen Jones, p. 47. Harper Prism, 1997.
 * Miska, Brad. "'Bride of Re-Animator' Finger Creature Turned Into a Toy. Seriously." Bloody Disgusting, 7 May 2014.
 * Bowen, Chuck. "Blu-ray Review: Brian Yuzna’s Bride of Re-Animator on Arrow Video." Slant Magazine, 7 Nov. 2016.
 * Vorel, Jim. "The Best Horror Movie of 1989: Santa Sangre." Paste, 1 Oct. 2019.
 * Barnes, Mike. "Claude Earl Jones, Actor in 'Bride of Re-Animator,' Dies at 86." The Hollywood Reporter, 4 Dec. 2019.
 * Comtois, James. "Claude Earl Jones, Bride of the Re-Animator and Battlestar Galactica Actor, Dies at 86." Syfy Wire, 4 Dec. 2019.
 * There are also sources which point to the film as having premiered or been released in 1990, though:
 * Maltin, Leonard. Leonard Maltin's 2009 Movie Guide, p. 178. Plume, 2008.
 * Rabin, Nathan. "Jeffrey Combs on Re-Animator’s endurance, playing H.P. Lovecraft, and more." The A. V. Club, 20 Feb. 2013.

 * Arrigo, Anthony. "Re-Animator (Blu-ray)." Dread Central, 10 Aug. 2017.
 * Fisher, Kieran. "The Best Year in Movies Was 1990." Film School Rejects, 4 Apr. 2018.
 * Thoughts? — Matthew  - (talk) 21:11, 12 January 2020 (UTC)
 * It should be 1990. I saw this discussion in recent changes and wanted to investigate why 1989 is a possibility. IMDb here indicated it was the Sitges Film Festival in October 1989. Since this is not a reliable source but a useful clue, I sought a reliable source. It turns out that this says the film was an official selection (under PEL·LÍCULES) in 1990. If Sitges was the basis for 1989, and it is wrong, then there is no other reason why it would be 1989. I will contact IMDb to make this correction. Erik (talk | contrib) (ping me) 21:29, 12 January 2020 (UTC)
 * It may also have to do with the fact that the end credits for Bride of Re-Animator include the notice "© 1989 Re-Animator II Productions, Inc." I'm not sure which of the sources I mentioned based their information on that, on IMDb, or on something else. The copyright notice certainly indicates that the film was copyrighted in 1989, but I'm not sure if the film was also released that year. I think I'm going to look into purchasing some old Fangoria or Cinefantastique magazines from around that time to see if there's any relevant information there. — Matthew  - (talk) 17:11, 13 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Considering that the film was released at the start of 1990, it was very likely completed in 1989 and got the copyright then. FYI, the IMDb page now says 1990 for the earliest release year, having corrected the Sitges screening from 1989 to 1990. Erik (talk | contrib) (ping me) 21:09, 19 January 2020 (UTC)

FA concerns
Since the version promoted in 2007, this article has become listy and excessively wordy (eg, "Scouts Canada holds numerous Wood Badge training courses on an annual basis throughout the country" - d'oh). There is also uncited text throughout (sample). Dubious sourcing abounds (samples,, ,  and more ), missing page numbers on books (sample, Diamond Jubilee Yearbook. Manila: Boy Scouts of the Philippines. 1996. ISBN 9789719176909.), missing publishers and dead links (samples,  2006. "Wood Badge Framework". Retrieved March 31, 2023. And  "Wood Badge Framework". Retrieved March 31, 2023.) and more that can be detailed. The sourcing is far enough off the current standards for featured articles that I am listing this article at WP:FARGIVEN. Sandy Georgia (Talk)  17:38, 15 May 2023 (UTC)

 * @SandyGeorgia: It would be helpful if you could please add the appropriate templates to the article to highlight the issues you've found (e.g. citation needed, better source needed, page needed, dead link), which would hopefully inspire editors to fix these issues. Thanks! GoingBatty (talk) 02:26, 17 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Thanks for weighing in ; I provided a considerable list of samples above. At the level of determining whether an article still meets WP:WIAFA, a top-to-bottom approach to rewriting by dedicated and FA-knowledgeabe editors is usually more effective than piecemeal editing that results from maintenance tags.  This thing needs such a top-to-bottom rewrite for the reasons and examples I provided. Sandy Georgia  (Talk)  15:43, 18 May 2023 (UTC)

I've been involved in work that ended up being the lead on FA rescues but I'm not so sure about taking a deep dive on this one. On those others I said that I wasn't concerned about FA status but enjoyed improving the coverage of the topic. I think that I'd be up for that again but since the issues on this one look more like meticulous FA items I think that my kind of work would be secondary on this one.

American or British English
Evrik tells me that this article is written in American English. Having spent a little time in the US and the last 30 years in Australia, although I spent the first 50 years of my live in Britain, I am somewhat confused about the differences between American and British English. Since the Wood Badge started in Britain, should not this article be written in British English. I was confused by his edit asserting that the article was written in American English. Perhaps it should be changed to British English, although I think we stick to which ever English was used to start the article. I do not see the need to assert that it is written in American English, which he recently added. The article is quiet old and I do not think it has been an issue. --Bduke (talk) 01:53, 7 July 2023 (UTC)
 * An IP editor recently tried changing the spellings. I thought we should label the article. I don't care dialect we use, but let's be deliberate. FWIW, I believe it to be in American English. --evrik (talk) 02:32, 7 July 2023 (UTC)
 * As I understand it, our convention is to stick to the first language dialect that an article was written in. The very first versions of this article contained the word Bootlace, which is British English. That word is no longer in the article, but to find another word/spelling might be a challenge. British English seems to be the way we should be going. HiLo48 (talk) 03:02, 7 July 2023 (UTC)
 * There is also a separate article - Wood Badge (Boy Scouts of America). --Bduke (talk) 10:26, 7 July 2023 (UTC)
 * When and article is an "edge case" I lean a bit towards US English because it's more common with the readers. But "Wood Badge started in Britain" would weigh in in the opposite direction. Either way would be cool with me. North8000 (talk) 13:10, 7 July 2023 (UTC)

Was it bias and did it provide enough useful information?
I believe that the article was unbiased and was very helpful to anyone who would be searching into this topic. I believe that this article was very well written and had a strong beginning all the way until the end. It gave very much needed and helpful information and history about the badge. The article includes images, bullet points, links, and more to help enhance the readers chance of understanding the topic of the article better and even showing them about related topics to help understand better. I do believe that the overall status of the article was very well composed other than that I had to select four different subtopics before ending in this article. It was put way deep down in the academic disciplines. B9MC3 (talk) 20:39, 20 January 2024 (UTC)

Volcanic Legacy Scenic Byway

The Volcanic Legacy Scenic Byway is a scenic byway and All-American Road in the U.S. states of California and Oregon. It is roughly 500 mi long and travels north–south along the Cascade Range past numerous volcanoes. It is composed of two separate National Scenic Byways, the Volcanic Legacy Scenic Byway - Oregon and Volcanic Legacy Scenic Byway - California. The former includes Rim Drive within Crater Lake National Park, while the latter wholly includes the Lassen Scenic Byway within Lassen Volcanic National Park.

Region 1 through Region 4: the Lassen Scenic Byway
The southern terminus of the byway is located in Canyondam, at the intersection of State Route 147 (SR 147) and SR 89. SR 89 runs along the west side of Lake Almanor, and then runs eastward through Chester towards Mineral. From Mineral, the byway runs northward through Lassen Volcanic National Park to Manzanita Lake to Old Station. From the southern terminus of the byway, there is also a bypass route along SR 147. SR 147 runs along the east side of Lake Almanor and intersects with SR 36 at Westwood. From this point, the bypass runs eastward until it intersects with SR 44 in Susanville. From this point, the bypass runs to the northwest through the Lassen National Forest until it intersects with SR 89 in Old Station. The route from Canyondam to Chester to Mineral to Manzanita Lake to Old Station to Susanville to Westwood and back to Canyondam forms a loop—designated the Lassen Scenic Byway—which can be traveled either clockwise or counterclockwise.

Region 5: Old Station to Burney
Continuing northwards from Old Station, the byway goes through Hat Creek and then to Burney. Thousand Lakes Wilderness and Burney Mountain are located just west of the byway, while Hat Creek Radio Observatory and the Lassen National Forest are to the east.

Region 6: Burney to McCloud
Continuing northwards from Burney, the byway goes past McArthur–Burney Falls Memorial State Park, then Lake Britton, then crosses the McCloud River and runs past Bartle before arriving at McCloud. The byway splits at Bartle; there is an alternate route that runs in a northeasterly direction for 46 mi through the Modoc National Forest, winding past Medicine Lake before arriving at Lava Beds National Monument. From Lava Beds National Monument the alternate route runs north for roughly 18 mi, passing through Tule Lake National Wildlife Refuge.

Region 7: McCloud to Weed
From McCloud, the byway goes past Mount Shasta, then through Black Butte before arriving at Weed. Lake Siskiyou is located just west of the byway, while Mount Shasta is to the west.

Region 8: Weed to Dorris to Tulelake
Continuing northwards from Weed, the byway goes past Carrick, then Pluto's Cave, Mount Hebron, Macdoel, Butte Valley National Grassland, and Meiss Lake before arriving at Dorris. The byway again splits just north of Dorris; there is an alternate route that runs east for 19 mi along the California–Oregon state line on SR 161 past Ainsworth Corner and Lower Klamath National Wildlife Refuge to Hatfield. At Hatfield, SR 161 joins SR 139. From here, the byway continues south for 4 mi to Tulelake. At this point, SR 139 becomes the Lava Beds Highway while the Volcanic Legacy Scenic Byway turns sharply to the east. 5 mi east of this point, the byway then turns runs south for roughly 18 mi, where it passes through Tule Lake National Wildlife Refuge and Lava Beds National Monument. From Lava Beds National Monument, the byway continues south for 46 mi through Modoc National Forest, winding past Medicine Lake before arriving at SR 89 in Bartle.

Region 9: Tulelake to Dorris to Klamath Falls
From Tulelake, the byway continues east for 5 mi, then turns north and goes past Camp Tulelake before turning west onto SR 161 at Ainsworth Corner. From Ainsworth Corner, the byway continues east on SR 161 for 19 mi through Lower Klamath National Wildlife Refuge along the California–Oregon state line, then turns north onto U.S. Route 97 (US 97) at Dorris. Continuing north, the byway crosses into Oregon at the Francis Landrum Historic Wayside, then passes through Worden (Bear Valley National Wildlife Refuge is located just east of the byway at Worden) and Midland before arriving at Klamath Falls.

Region 10: Klamath Falls to Fort Klamath
At Klamath Falls, the byway turns onto Oregon Route 140 (OR 140) and heads northeast along the eastern side of Upper Klamath Lake for 25 mi before turning north onto Westside Road. From there, the byway passes between Pelican Butte (west of the byway) and Upper Klamath National Wildlife Refuge (east of the byway) before arriving at Fort Klamath.

Region 11: Fort Klamath to Crater Lake National Park
At Fort Klamath, the byway joins OR 62 and continues north for 16 mi, where it turns onto Munson Valley Road and enters Crater Lake National Park. At this point, the road becomes Rim Drive, a 33 mi loop that follows the caldera rim around Crater Lake. At Merriam Point, Rim Drive splits and turns north. The byway continues north for 9 mi, crossing the Pumice Desert before turning east onto OR 138. From this point, the byway continues east for nearly 15 mi, before finally terminating at US 97 in Chemult.

Panther danio

The panther danio (Danio aesculapii) is a species of danio endemic to Myanmar. Before its description it was referred to as Danio species TW03. The panther is a smallish danio which on first glance looks a little dull, but displays a variety of colours when sunlight illuminates the fish on its side.

Talk:UW–Milwaukee Panther Arena

Rainbow M's?
"It is also known for its former unique basketball court painted by Robert Indiana in 1978, with large rainbow 'M's taking up both half-courts representing Milwaukee."

IIRC, the "M"s were more conventionally shaped, much like a printed capital "M" (rather than a curved McDonald's "M", for example), with the base of each letter on the baseline. Further, each M was colored yellow, not multicolored as one would expect from something described as a "rainbow "M". However, with the colored free-throw lanes that were also used, it was a bit difficult to see that the letters were in fact giant "M"s, at least for most televised games. 4.243.152.25 01:28, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

Verifiable info?
This article makes a lot of claims that aren't backed up by anything -- e.g. the Steve Austin "Austin 3:16" bit. 71.55.140.226 (talk) 21:13, 12 January 2017 (UTC)

Marquette womens basketball
The Marquette women's team played there many years until the opening of the Al McGuire Center on campus. (I personally played in the M.U. Band 1998-2002.) I don't know the official beginning and end years or I would add a mention myself. Can anyone verify? --"BigMal" / 198.151.8.4 (talk) 15:36, 16 November 2018 (UTC)

I have a picture of the interior of the arena, dated when Abdul-Jabbar played for Milwaukee. In the picture, on the scoreboard it clearly reads "Daktronics". In the article, it is stated the builder of the board is "Trans-Lux". Maybe for a later board, but not the original. I will post the picture in the next few days. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Potter54904 (talk • contribs) 23:30, 23 February 2022 (UTC)

Product innovation

Product innovation is the creation and subsequent introduction of a goods or service that is either new, or an improved version of previous goods or services. This is broader than the normally accepted definition of innovation that includes the invention of new products which, in this context, are still considered innovative.

Introduction
Product innovation is defined as: "the development of new products, changes in design of established products, or use of new materials or components in the manufacture of established products"

Numerous examples of product innovation include introducing new products, enhanced quality and improving its overall performance. Product innovation, alongside cost-cutting innovation and process innovation, are three different classifications of innovation which aim to develop a company's production methods.

Thus product innovation can be divided into two categories of innovation: radical innovation which aims at developing a new product, and incremental innovation which aims at improving existing products.

Advantages and disadvantages
Advantages of product innovation include:

 * Growth, expansion and gaining a competitive advantage: A business that is capable of differentiating their product from other businesses in the same industry to large extent will be able to reap profits. This can be applied to how smaller businesses can use product innovation to better differentiate their product from others. Product differentiation can be defined as "A marketing process that showcases the differences between products. Differentiation looks to make a product more attractive by contrasting its unique qualities with other competing products. Successful product differentiation creates a competitive advantage for the seller, as customers view these products as unique or superior." Therefore, small businesses that are able to utilize product innovation effectively will be able to expand and grow into larger businesses, while gaining a competitive advantage over its remaining competitors.
 * Brand switching: Businesses that once again are able to successfully utilize product innovation will thus entice customers from rival brands to buy its product instead as it becomes more attractive to the customer. One example of successful product innovation that have led to brand switching are the introduction of the iPhone to the mobile phone industry (which has caused mobile phone users to switch from Nokia, Motorola, Sony Ericsson, etc. to the Apple iPhone).

Disadvantages of product innovation include:

 * Counter effect of product innovation: Not all businesses/competitors do not always create products/resources from scratch, but rather substitute different resources to create productive innovation and this could have an opposite effect of what the business/ competitor is trying to do. Thus, some of these businesses/ competitors could be driven out of the industry and will not last long enough to enhance their product during their time in the industry.
 * High costs and high risk of failure: When a business attempts to innovate its product, it injects much capital and time into it, which requires severe experimentation. Constant experimentation could result in failure for the business and will also cause the business to incur significantly higher costs. Furthermore, it could take years for a business to successfully innovate a product, thus resulting in an uncertain return.
 * Disrupting the outside world: For product innovation to occur, the business will have to change the way it runs, and this could lead to the breaking down of relationships between the business and its customers, suppliers and business partners. In addition, changing too much of a business's product could lead to the business gaining a less reputable image due to a loss of credibility and consistency.

Theories of product innovation
Popular theories of product innovation - what causes it and how it is achieved - include Outcome-Driven Innovation and "Jobs to be Done" (JTBD). JTBD Theory is used extensively as part of a methodical approach to product innovation postulating that users "hire" a product to do a "job" and that innovation can be achieved by providing a better way of getting a particular job done.

Used as a framework, JTBD is very similar to outcome-driven innovation, focusing on the functional, emotional, and social 'jobs' that users want to perform. However, this is one of two main interpretations of the theory known as "Jobs-as-action." The second interpretation is known as "Jobs-as-progress" and focuses on what the user wants to be, stating that the jobs a product user wants to do are secondary to (and a result of) the person they want to be.

New product development
New product development is the initial step before the product life cycle can be examined, and plays a vital role in the manufacturing process. To prevent loss of profits or liquidation for businesses in the long term, new products have to be created to replace the old products. Peter Drucker suggests in his book 'Innovation and Entrepreneurship ' that both product innovation and entrepreneurship are interconnected and must be used together in unison for a business to be successful, and this relates to the process of new product development.

Stages
These are the few stages that a business has to undergo when introducing a new product line into the market:

 * 1) Market research: This can be done in the form of primary and secondary market research where the business will gather as much information as possible about the present tastes and preferences of its potential consumers, and the gaps filled in the business's particular industry. Secondary market research involves gathering data that has already been collected by another party, and is primarily based on information that has been founded from previous studies. One advantage of secondary market research over primary market research is that it is low-cost, thus enabling the business to be able to invest its time into other more important matters and new potential business ventures. Primary market research involves the business gathering data individually, and this can be done via various sampling methods. Other forms of primary market research include focus groups, interviews, questionnaires, etc. One advantage of primary market research over secondary market research is that it delivers much more specific results than secondary market research, and is only available to the business itself, rather than secondary research which is made globally available, as data has already been collected.
 * 2) Product development and testing: This stage involves creating a test product called a prototype. The prototype ensures the business that its product is functioning properly, and all the necessary arrangements are made to enhance the product as much as possible. After the prototype has been devised, the business can now use test marketing where the business introduces a product to a small group of individuals to give the company insight into the effectiveness of the product from the views of their potential customers.
 * 3) Feasibility study: The business will now look at the legal and financial restrictions of launching the product into the market. This is where the business will create sales forecasts, establish the price of the product, the overall costs of production and profitability estimates. The business also has to consider legal aspects in terms of safety and Intellectual Property Rights (IPR).

After all these stages have been successfully run through, then the business can officially launch the product.

Classification of innovation
Product innovation can be classified by degree of technical novelty and by type of novelty in terms of market. Technical product innovations include the use of new materials, the use of new intermediate products, new functional parts, the use of radically new technology and fundamental new functions. Classification by levels of novelty include new only to the firm, new to the industry in the country or to the operating market of the firm, or new to the world.

Existing product development is a process of innovation where products/services are redesigned, refurbished, improved, and manufactured which can be at a lower cost. This will provide benefits to both the company and the consumer in different ways; for example, increased revenue (benefits the company) cheaper costs (benefits the company and consumer) or even benefits the environment by implementation of 'green' production methods.

Measuring innovation
The Oslo Manual recommends certain guidelines for measuring innovation through the measurement of aspects in the innovation process and innovation expenditure. Measurement processes consists of collecting and systemizing qualitative and quantitative data regarding different factors of the innovation process, investment and outcome.

Quantitative analysis focus on investment, impact and life cycle. Examples of key quantitative indicators include product investment, total innovation investment, product sales share that comes from innovation, manpower use, material consumption, energy consumption, time taken to reach the commercialisation phase or the expected cost recovery or payback period.

Qualitative data includes benefits of the innovation, sources of information or ideas for the innovation, and diffusion or reach of innovation. Even though similar information can be obtained through quantitative methods, the guidelines argues that due to the qualitative nature of the answers, firms are inclined to provide richer and a different set of data, avoiding duplication.

Vs. other forms of innovation
While the difference between different forms of innovation seems intuitively clear, it is not always obvious what kind of innovation is occurring in practice. While there are different dimensions to consider whether it is a product innovation rather than e.g. a technology or business model innovation, it is not always possible to clearly differentiate one from the other. For example, compared to a business model innovation, a product innovation often has:
 * Lower strategic importance
 * Lower risk, impact, and uncertainty
 * Lower complexity
 * More clarity about who is in charge
 * Fewer actors and stakeholders
 * Fewer different disciplines involved
 * Smaller set of skills and capabilities necessary
