Carnwath

Carnwath (Gaelic: A' Chathair Nuadh; English: "New Fort") is a moorland village on the southern edge of the Pentland Hills of South Lanarkshire, Scotland. The village lies about 30 mi south of both Edinburgh and Glasgow. It is bounded by the North Medwyn and South Medwyn watercourses.

History
Carnwath stands about a mile north of the old Roman road connecting forts in Tweeddale with those on the Clyde.

The former castle of Carnwath is believed to date to the mid 12th-century built under the orders of William de Sommerville (who died 1160). However, the only remains are the motte which is visible beside the Carnwath Golf Club (founded 1907), at the west end of the village. However, the motte is described as "the most impressive Norman earthwork to survive in Lanarkshire." The motte today is a scheduled ancient monument.

At the centre of Carnwath is Carnwath Cross, the mercat cross, set back a little where the Main Street widens to form the Market Square. This was erected by the 5th Lord Somerville in 1516 to celebrate the granting of burgh status to the village in 1514.

Carnwath collegiate church was established in 1386. The only surviving part of the original collegiate church is St Mary's Aisle, built in 1424 and funded by Thomas Somerville, 1st Lord Somerville (later used as a mausoleum for the Lord Somervilles). St Mary's Aisle is Category A listed. In 1869, a new parish church was built beside the earlier buildings to a design by the Scottish architect David Bryce. The church is Scottish baronial in style and is Category B listed. The church no longer functions as a place of worship.

In 1630, the Carnwath estate, then owned by the Earl of Mar was purchased by Sir Robert Dalzell, later to become Lord Dalzell. In 1639, his son, Robert the 2nd Lord Dalzell, was further elevated to become the Earl of Carnwath. The title was forfeit in 1716 when the 5th Earl of Carnwath, Robert Dalzell was attainted due to his support of the Jacobite cause during the Fifteen, however the titles were restored to the family in 1826. Writer, spy and politician, George Lockhart, inherited the Carnwath estates from his father, Sir George Lockhart, of the Lockharts of Lee, who had purchased them in 1681 from the Earls of Carnwath.

The Ordnance Gazetteer of Scotland (1882–1885) said the village was: "Long a dingy and disagreeable place, it has been greatly improved". In 1845 the area became a civil parish.

Other buildings of note in the village include the old primary school on Main Street, dated 1876 and abandoned since 2006.

A notable spell of cold weather
In January 1979 the temperature in Carnwath sank to -24.6 °C, which was the lowest temperature recorded anywhere in the British Isles in the 1970s.

Economy
There is a large production facility to the NE of the village belonging to BHC Building Merchants. In 2007, the company applied to extend the facility and an archaeological survey was completed beforehand.

The historic New/Wee Bush Inn was a former 18th century coaching inn that has been converted to housing. The inn buildings are category B listed. The Inn was damaged by fire in 2002 and was the last pub in Scotland to have a thatched roof. For insurance purposes it has had to be rebuilt with a slate roof. The Inn's former claim to fame was that actor Oliver Reed was a regular customer.

There are several other pubs in the village, as well as a COOP, corner store and DIY shop.

Transport
The A70 road and A721 roads meet in the town.

Carnwath has no current rail access. Carnwath railway station was originally part of the Caledonian Railway, later the London, Midland and Scottish Railway and finally the Scottish Region of British Railways, was closed in the Beeching Axe of the 1960s. The nearest railway station is Carstairs railway station to the west of Carnwath.

Education
There is a nursery school in the village which is part of the Biggar Learning Community, that includes the Biggar High School. A new primary school was built and opened in 2015.

Culture and community
Carnwath also hosts the oldest foot race in Scotland, possibly Europe, the Red Hose Race, dating back to 13 March 1508. It has seen many changes over almost 500 years, but the running of The Red Hose is still a strong tradition in Carnwath. Hose being the Scots word for stockings or long socks. Each year a foot race is run at Carnwath and the local Laird must provide a pair of red stockings as the prize.

The "Sir John Mann" park is a public park and open space in the village (formerly Medwyn Park).

There is a playing field (King George's Field) with a sports pavilion in the village. The site was built in 1935 and is Category B listed. The site was formerly used by Carnwath Bowls Club.

In popular culture
Carnwath is mentioned twice in the traditional song We're No' Awa' Tae Bide Awa', also known as Carnwath Mill. So we had a hauf an' anither hauf, And then we had anither, When he got fou' he shouted "Hoo!   It's Carnwath Mill for ever." For we're no' awa' tae bide awa' , etc. And:- So whenever friendly friens may meet, Wherever Scots foregather, We'll raise our gless, we'll shout Hurroo, It's Carnwath Mill for ever''.

The allusion is obscure. Carnwath Mill is a farm (and formerly, a mill) about 1 mi from Carnwath; alternatively, there was a lint mill at Carnwath erected in 1762; the former survives as a house and holiday let and The Lint Mill hosts a B&B and is an organic smallholding. The song also alludes to Wilsontown, which was about 6 mi away.

Notable people
Notable people from Carnwath include the first woman provost of Kirkintilloch, Jenny Coutts, the author and critic, Robert Anderson and the footballer, Tom Brownlee. The Ordnance Gazetteer remarks that: "the minor poet, James Graeme (1749–1772)" was a resident of the locality.

Club career
Timpano previously played for the Wollongong Wolves in the National Soccer League. He is a central defender, and has represented Australia at the 2005 FIFA World Youth Championship and captained Australia in the 2003 FIFA U-17 World Championship as an Under-20 and Under-17 respectively.

In the 2005-06 A-League season, Timpano was an essential part of Sydney FC championship-winning side - playing in 19 of the club's 24 games. However, in the 2006-07 A-League season, Timpano made only 2 appearances (1 start) due to persistent leg injuries which continued into the start of season 2007/08. By the time Timpano recovered full fitness he found himself out of favour with the new coach only playing another 3 games for Sydney before he left the club.

In 2009, Timpano signed a two-year deal to be part of the new North Queensland Fury's inaugural A-League squad alongside current Sydney FC teammates, Robbie Middleby, Brendon Šantalab and Beau Busch. However, he once again found himself the 4th choice defensive option and remained unused throughout the season, much of which he spent on loan at Queensland League club North Queensland Razorbacks.

At the end of the season, Jacob was one of the players controversially released by the club despite being under contract. After being released, Jacob went back to New South Wales to play for Sydney United in the NSW Premier League.

He signed for South Coast Wolves after transferring from Sydney United ahead of the 2011 NSW Premier League season.

Timpano left South Coast Wolves, signing for Dapto Dandaloo Fury ahead of their 2015 Illawarra Premier League campaign. He was announced as one of six new signings for the club. He will play with several former A-League players, including Noel Spencer, Alvin Ceccoli, Shane Lyons, and Wade Oostendorp.

International career
During 2006, Timpano was selected and captained the Australian Under 23's national football team in their campaign for the 2008 Summer Olympics, and played in all three international matches that year against Iran, Vietnam and Uzbekistan.

Managerial career

Ernst Ludwig Alfred Hegar

Ernst Ludwig Alfred Hegar, aka Alfred Hegar, was a German gynecologist famous for developing new medical tools and techniques. He was born on 6 January 1830 in Darmstadt, Germany and died on 5 August 1914. He was buried in Breisgau.

Hegar was the son of Johann August Hegar (1794–1882), a country Doctor. He studied medicine in Giessen, Heidelberg, Berlin and Vienna, and after graduation went into the army and worked as military physician. He later went into private practice as an obstetrician in the city of Darmstadt.

Alfred Hegar was chosen to be the successor of Otto Spiegelberg as professor for gynecology and obstetrics at the University of Freiburg in 1864 and was the first head of the Universitäts-Frauenklinik of the University Medical Center Freiburg when it opened in 1868. Hegar also founded the journal "Beiträge zur Geburthilfe und Gynäkologie" in 1898. He was a pioneer of antiseptics and antiseptic procedures. Hegar retired in 1904.

Among the many techniques and instruments he developed were Hegar's sign and Hegar dilators, as well as Hegar's operation, an operation for repairing a ruptured perineum. His works are still widely discussed at colleges of obstetrics worldwide.

With gynecologist Rudolf Kaltenbach (1842–1893), he was co-author of Operative Gynäkologie, published in three editions.

Bobby Whitlock

Robert Stanley Whitlock (born March 18, 1948) is an American singer, songwriter and musician. He is best known as a member of the blues-rock band Derek and the Dominos, with Eric Clapton, in 1970–71. Whitlock's musical career began with Memphis soul acts such as Sam & Dave and Booker T. & the M.G.'s before he joined Delaney & Bonnie and Friends in 1968. His association with Delaney & Bonnie bandmate Clapton led to Whitlock's participation in sessions for George Harrison's 1970 triple album All Things Must Pass, in London, and the formation of Derek and the Dominos that year. On the band's sole studio album, the critically acclaimed Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs, Whitlock wrote or co-wrote seven of the album's fourteen tracks, including "Tell the Truth", "Bell Bottom Blues" and "Why Does Love Got to Be So Sad?".

Whitlock recorded four solo albums during the 1970s, among them Bobby Whitlock and Raw Velvet, and contributed to albums by Clapton, Dr John and the Rolling Stones. He then withdrew from music until releasing It's About Time in 1999. Following his return, Whitlock has recorded and performed with his wife, CoCo Carmel, and since 2006 with other musicians based in Austin, Texas. Among his and Carmel's projects, Other Assorted Love Songs, Live from Whitney Chapel contains acoustic interpretations of songs originally recorded by Derek and the Dominos.

Early career 1965–68

In an article for Mojo magazine in May 2011, music journalist Phil Sutcliffe described Whitlock as having been born in Memphis and learning to play the Hammond organ "peering over Booker T's shoulder at Stax studios". While still a teenager, Whitlock befriended acts associated with Stax Records, including Albert King, Sam & Dave, the Staples Singers and Booker T. & the M.G.'s, and was the first white artist signed to the label. His first contribution to a recording was in 1967, when he supplied handclaps on Sam & Dave's single "I Thank You".

Between 1965 and 1968, Whitlock performed regularly in the Memphis area, playing organ with local soul band the Short Cuts before forming the Counts. In his 2010 autobiography, Whitlock writes of this period in Memphis: "It was a great time and town for music then, especially soul music. It was real rhythm and blues. Albert King R&B, that's what I'm talking about. It was loose and all about music everywhere that you turned." With established Stax musicians such as Steve Cropper as his mentor, and Donald "Duck" Dunn and Don Nix preparing to produce a pop album by him on a Stax subsidiary label, Whitlock instead left Memphis after meeting the husband-and-wife team Delaney and Bonnie Bramlett. Whitlock recalls that he was performing at a club with the Counts when the Bramletts invited him to join a soul-revue band they were forming in Los Angeles.

Delaney & Bonnie 1968–70
Whitlock contributed on keyboards and vocals to two Delaney & Bonnie albums in 1969, Home and Accept No Substitute. Their touring band, known as Delaney & Bonnie and Friends, included musicians he would continue to work with on projects through to the early 1970s: bassist Carl Radle; drummers Jim Keltner and Jim Gordon; and a horn section comprising Bobby Keys and Jim Price. Another member was Eric Clapton, who joined the Friends as lead guitarist midway through a U.S. tour in July–August 1969. On this tour, Delaney & Bonnie were supporting Clapton's short-lived supergroup Blind Faith, with Steve Winwood. Clapton later described Whitlock as "without doubt the most energetic sideman I had ever seen". Along with all the other members of Delaney & Bonnie, Whitlock flew to England in November 1969 to prepare for a highly publicized European tour, financed by Clapton.

In his autobiography, Whitlock states that their arrival in London changed the dynamics within the band, as the Bramletts now considered themselves "big stars" and the ones solely responsible for the new-found success. Once in London, Whitlock participated in a session for a solo album by the American soul singer Doris Troy, on the Beatles' Apple record label. The album, Doris Troy (1970), was co-produced by George Harrison, who, having championed Delaney & Bonnie in the British press, accepted Clapton's invitation to join the tour. Through Harrison, Whitlock and the band then played at John Lennon's "Peace for Christmas" concert, held at the Lyceum Ballroom in London on December 15, 1969.

In early 1970, Delaney & Bonnie and Friends backed Clapton on his debut solo album, Eric Clapton, and toured America with the English guitarist. After arguments with the Bramletts over money, the other Friends quit the band and joined Leon Russell on Joe Cocker's Mad Dogs and Englishmen tour. Whitlock continued to work with Delaney & Bonnie until April, following sessions for their album To Bonnie from Delaney (1970). On Cropper's advice, he then returned to England to stay with Clapton at his home, Hurtwood Edge, in Surrey.

Derek and the Dominos 1970–71
Seeking to start a new band, Whitlock and Clapton reunited with Radle and Gordon at a session for P.P. Arnold, before going on to back Harrison on his 1970 triple album All Things Must Pass. Whitlock has described the latter sessions as "spectacular in every way". Although individual contributions remain hard to ascertain, due to the large cast of musicians on the Phil Spector-produced recording, Harrison biographer Simon Leng identifies Whitlock as one of two "core keyboard players" on All Things Must Pass. Having traditionally favored Hammond organ as his keyboard instrument, Whitlock played piano for the first time on a studio recording during the session for Harrison's "Beware of Darkness".

In June 1970, early in the All Things Must Pass sessions, Clapton, Whitlock, Radle and Gordon formed the blues-rock band Derek and the Dominos. Their first release was a US-only single, "Tell the Truth", produced by Spector and written primarily by Whitlock. In August, once their work on Harrison's album was complete, Derek and the Dominos toured the UK, playing to small venues. That summer, Whitlock and his bandmates also participated in London sessions for Dr John's album The Sun, Moon & Herbs (1971).

Unhappy with Spector's treatment of their sound, the band went to Criteria Studios in Miami to work with producer Tom Dowd, on what became a double album – Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs (1970). As well as a remake of "Tell the Truth", the album included six other songs written or co-written by Whitlock, including "Anyday", "Why Does Love Got to Be So Sad?", "Keep on Growing" and "Thorn Tree in the Garden". In addition, Whitlock helped Clapton finish "Bell Bottom Blues", although he was not initially credited as a co-writer on that song. "Keep on Growing" and "Thorn Tree in the Garden" featured Whitlock on lead vocals, while on other tracks he and Clapton shared the singing in a style reminiscent of Sam & Dave.

Adding to the power of the Dominos' music, Clapton's inspiration for the songs on Layla was his unrequited love for Pattie Boyd, Harrison's wife. Whitlock began a relationship with Boyd's sister Paula at this time, and was therefore, as he has described it, "in the inner circle ... in the middle of it with all of them". He comments on a musical dialogue between Harrison and Clapton in their songs: "There were subliminal messages, going back and forth, between two good friends as a way of healing and setting each other free ... I have always known that the better part of those songs [on All Things Must Pass] were directed to Eric, just like Eric's were to George on the Layla record."

Between October and December 1970, Derek and the Dominos toured the United States in support of Layla. The Elton John Band was their opening act. In his autobiography, Elton John said, "They were phenomenal. From the side of the stage, I took mental notes of their performance ... it was their keyboard player Bobby Whitlock that I watched like a hawk. ... You watched and you learned, from people that had more experience than you." But the Layla album made little commercial impact on release, failing to chart in the UK. Clapton's despondency at being rejected by Boyd, the band's drug consumption, and personal conflicts between the members, particularly with Gordon, all contributed to the break-up of the Dominos in May 1971.

Solo career 1971–76
Whitlock recorded his debut solo album, Bobby Whitlock (1972), at London's Olympic Studios in 1971, with Andy Johns as his co-producer. The recording took place before the abortive sessions for the Dominos' second studio album; a press release for the 2013 reissue of Bobby Whitlock gives the recording date as starting in March 1971, while Dominos biographer Jan Reid writes of sessions happening in January that year. Whitlock played acoustic or electric rhythm guitar on much of the album, which also included musical contributions from all the Dominos (often recorded separately), the Bramletts, Harrison, Keys, Price and Keltner. Among its tracks, "Where There's a Will" was a Whitlock–Bonnie Bramlett collaboration that had featured in Delaney & Bonnie's live shows in 1969–70, and "A Day Without Jesus" was co-written by Whitlock and Don Nix. The record peaked at number 140 on the US Billboard 200 chart, the same magazine praising it as "a persuasively powerful first album".

Whitlock's second solo album, also on ABC-Dunhill Records, was Raw Velvet, released in November 1972. It included appearances by Clapton and Gordon, on "Hello L.A., Bye Bye Birmingham", although the majority of the album, including another remake of "Tell the Truth", featured new associates such as guitarist Rick Vito and ex-Van der Graaf Generator bassist Keith Ellis. The album was co-produced by Jimmy Miller, whose connection with the Rolling Stones led to Whitlock making an uncredited contribution to the band's Exile on Main St. double album (1972). By this point, Layla's title track had become a hit song, following its release as a single to promote the History of Eric Clapton compilation (1972), leading to a critical reappraisal of Derek and the Dominos and belated commercial success. A 1970-recorded live album, In Concert, was similarly well-received when issued in January 1973. Raw Velvet peaked at number 190 on the Billboard 200, however, and it was Whitlock's last album to place on the chart. Whitlock tried in vain to get Clapton to come out and play; realizing it was not going to happen, after two years of waiting, he went back to the United States.

His next solo album was One of a Kind, co-produced with Bill Halverson and released in 1975 on Capricorn Records. Rock Your Sox Off followed in 1976, opening with a new recording of "Why Does Love Got to Be So Sad?" Whitlock then withdrew from the music industry; he told Mojo contributor Harry Shapiro in 2001: "I had my own problems to deal with." Speaking to The Austin Chronicle in 2006, Whitlock said of his retirement, "It wasn't hard to stop, because there was nothing going on in music", and rued the popularity of disco.

Later career
For much of the 1980s and 1990s, Whitlock lived on a farm in Mississippi, raising his children and doing occasional session work. He had his own television show with Steve Cropper. A rare music release during this period was "Put Angels Around You", a duet with Scottish singer Maggie Bell, issued as a single in 1983 on Led Zeppelin's Swan Song Records.

In 1999, Whitlock resumed his solo career with It's About Time, which included contributions from Cropper and saxophonist Jim Horn. Michael Smith of AllMusic described the album as "one of Whitlock's most intriguing creations yet" and a "fine set from a musician we haven't heard enough from in recent years". In April 2000, Whitlock reunited with Clapton to play live on the BBC's Later... with Jools Holland. The following year, he contributed piano to Sweet Tea by blues guitarist Buddy Guy.

In 2003, Whitlock and his wife, musician CoCo Carmel, collaborated on Other Assorted Love Songs, a live album that again revisited the Dominos' songs, as well as including Harrison's "All Things Must Pass". Music critic Bruce Eder praised the album, writing: "The classic pieces [from Layla] hold up magnificently ... [H]ere, acoustic guitar and piano are more than sufficient accompaniment and, indeed, coupled with Whitlock's powerful singing and range, make a strong case for these being the definitive versions."

Whitlock and Carmel moved to Austin, Texas in 2006. The couple worked with musicians such as David Grissom, Stephen Bruton and Brannen Temple, and special guest Willie Nelson, on the album Lovers (2008) and Metamorphosis (2010), another live recording. Released on the Domino label, Lovers included a song that Whitlock had begun writing with Clapton in the early 1970s, "Dear Veronica", and a remake of "Layla" that omitted the Gordon-composed ending, which Whitlock had never thought suitable for the track. Vintage (2009) compiled his unreleased songs from the 1990s and included appearances by Cropper and Horn. Whitlock's solo album My Time (2009) featured musical contributions from Cropper, Keltner, Horn, Tim Drummond and Buddy Miller. His subsequent releases with Carmel include Esoteric (2012) and another live album, Carnival: Live in Austin (2013). In 2013, in connection with the release of the latter album, Whitlock and Carmel gave an interview for Tracy Thibodeaux's Pods o' Pop in which he spoke in depth about the formation of Derek and the Dominos, composing with Clapton, and playing on Harrison's All Things Must Pass.

In 2010, Bobby Whitlock: A Rock 'n' Roll Autobiography, written with music historian Marc Roberty, was published, with a foreword by Eric Clapton. Whitlock's first two solo albums appeared, remastered, as Where There's a Will, There's a Way: The ABC-Dunhill Recordings, released by Future Day Records in September 2013. In 2015, Bobby Whitlock and Coco Carmel's "The Just Us Tour 2015" visited the eastern and mid-western United States, using guest guitarists in each city. The tour ended with a performance at The Jass Blues Festival in Dhaka, Bangladesh.

Ilyushin Il-80

The Ilyushin Il-80 (NATO reporting name: Maxdome) is a Russian airborne command and control aircraft modified from the Ilyushin Il-86 airliner.

Development
The Ilyushin Il-80 has the NATO reporting name Maxdome (though some sources claim it uses the reporting name Camber, like the Il-86 passenger jet). The Russian reporting name for the aircraft is Aimak, or Eimak (Mongolian for "clan"). The aircraft is believed to have first flown in the summer of 1985, with the first post-modification flight taking place on March 5, 1987, and deliveries starting later that year. In all, four aircraft are known to have been converted from Il-86s. They were registered CCCP-86146 through 86149, and were first observed by western photographers in 1992.

Heavily modified from the Ilyushin Il-86, the Il-80 (also referred to as the Il-86VKP) is meant to be used as an airborne command center for Russian officials, including the President, in the event of nuclear war. The role of the Ilyushin Il-80 is similar to that of the Boeing E-4B. The Il-80 has no external windows (save those in the cockpit), to shield it from a nuclear blast and nuclear electromagnetic pulse. Only the upper deck forward door on the left and the aft door on the right remain from the standard design. There is only one airstair door, instead of three. An unusual baffle blocks the aft cockpit windows. This may serve to block EMP or RF pulses.

Unlike the standard Il-86 airliner, the Il-80 has two electrical generator pods mounted inboard of the engine nacelles. Each pod is approximately 9.5 metres (32 feet) long and 1.3 metres (4 feet) in diameter. Both pods include landing lights.

Like the E-4B, the aircraft has a dorsal SATCOM canoe, believed to house advanced satellite communications equipment, and a trailing wire antenna mounted in the lower aft fuselage for very low frequency (VLF) radio transmission and reception (likely for communication with ballistic missile submarines).

Replacement
When the present upgrades have reached the end of their life, it is expected that a new airborne command post, based on the Ilyushin Il-96-400M commercial aircraft and delivered as the so-called Doomsday plane, will replace them.

Operation
Upon completion, all four Il-80s were delivered to the 8th Special Purposes Aviation Division at the Chkalovsky Airbase near Moscow.

As of 2011 three Il-80s remain in service. They are painted in the current livery of Aeroflot, the Russian state airline; and carry international civilian registrations RA-86147, RA-86148, and RA-86149. The first Il-80, registration RA-86146, has been photographed without engines and is apparently out of service. As of 2011 the Il-80s remain based at Chkalovsky Airbase, located 30 km northeast of Moscow. The aircraft are rarely observed in operation, though at least one was seen at an air show.

In December 2020, Russian media reported that radio communication equipment had been stolen from one of the Il-80s while it was undergoing maintenance.

User:Robchurch/Editing Crash Course/Basic Editing/Formatting 101

''It is often necessary to format text on a wiki page in order to emphasise or otherwise transform it. This lesson details basic formatting, including bold/italic/underline, controlling text size, and striking through text.''

Formatting of text in wikimarkup is done through the simple use of tags which surround the text to be formatted. For instance, to embolden some text, one surrounds it with three apostrophes (') which MediaWiki detects as being an indicator for bold text.

Bold
To make text bold, surround it with three apostrophes ('). For example:

This is some bold text

is rendered as

This is some bold text

Italics
To italicise text, surround it with two apostrophes ('). For example:

This is some italic text

is rendered as

This is some italic text

Bold and italic
To make text bold and italic, surround it with five apostrophes ('). A number of combinations are possible, for example:

This is some bold and italic text This is some bold and italic text This is some bold and italic text

is rendered as

This is some bold and italic text

This is some bold and italic text

This is some bold and italic text

Underline
To underline text, surround it with and. For example:

This is some underlined text

is rendered as

This is some underlined text

Strike-out
While not necessarily useful in articles, in discussions on talk pages is it usually considered better form to cross out comments you no longer endorse. This can be achieved by surrounding the text with and. For example:

This is my discarded opinion

This is my new opinion

is rendered as

This is my discarded opinion

This is my new opinion

Making text bigger
To make text bigger, use the and tags. For example:

This is big text

is rendered as

This is big text

Note: It's not generally a good idea to use this tag too often.

Making text smaller
To make text smaller, use the and tags. For example:

This is small text

is rendered as

This is small text

Talk:Death of Elizabeth Shin

Untitled
The article starts by stating that Shin's death is now believed to have been accidental, but refers to it as a suicide throughout. Furthermore, it only provides support for the notion that it was a suicide, and offers no reasons why it should be considered an accident. This makes no sense. Miai 23:22, 2 October 2005 (UTC)

The first link says "The discovery phase of the case has drawn out new evidence indicating that Shin’s death in 2000 was “much more likely a mistake” than a suicide, said Curtis R. Diedrich, a lawyer representing Dr. Linda Cunningham, who treated Shin at MIT Medical. The doctor who wrote the death certificate was “not necessarily in a position to make a determination whether this was something [Shin] intended or not,” he said, declining to give further explanation as litigation is ongoing." But that's all the information it gives.

Litgation between MIT and the Shins should not have any bearing on whether this is recorded as a suicide or accidental death. Didn't a medical examiner conduct a postmortem?128.172.27.93 (talk) 20:59, 30 November 2009 (UTC)

Korean culture, parental pressure, mental health, model minority
For me, Elizabeth Shin illustrates several issues affecting Asian American youth. I added paragraphs mentioning the extreme pressure for academic success, the reluctance among Asians to use mental health services or to acknowledge mental health issues, and the model minority myth that helps hide these issues from teachers, administrators and the public at large. Asian Americans might also want to dismiss these issues because it may make them feel it reflects poorly on them in the eyes of mainstream Americans. There is a long history of other ethnic groups trying to shape what is said about them to reflect only success, positive attributes. Asian Americans may even promote the model minority myth, or at least decline to challenge it.

I used the best sources I could find easily. I can improve them, I think.

I forgot to mention that I am a second generation Korean American, and I am a professional counselor/mentor to Asian American high school students. I have often found that very few adults, Asians and non-Asians alike, are aware of and willing to acknowledge issues among Asian American youth. The youth themselves are a different matter.

Reply
With due respect, I believe that your additions don't belong in this article. The cultural issues you bring up are real, but to associate them with a particular individual without strong evidence is inappropriate.

As an example: It's a true statement that sickle-cell anemia is more prevalent among black Americans than white Americans. But it's a misapplication to state that Michael Jordan is at higher risk for sickle-cell anemia than the population in general. Unless you have specific information about Jordan's health, it's racist to make that claim about him just because he is black.

You have not shown that Elizabeth Shin's family life exposed her to the issues you raise; you're simply saying that the issues apply because she is Asian.

--Heath 68.191.7.126 05:51, 28 March 2006 (UTC)

Yikes... sad story, but the analog that Heath writes is incorrect. Blacks are at a higher risk for sickle-cell. How that fits with Michael Jordon... I don't know. after reading the second link on how many visits she had with psychiatrist, its obvious that she suffered from major depression and likely a personality disorder with her self-mutilation. Sure there maybe added pressure by having parents with high expectations and pressures, but the loose association here is just that, loose. I think that I would rather have high expectations and pressure, than low expectations and be raised in the inner-city. ER MD 10:01, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

Agreed
I agree with Heath. Whenever I read this article, I am bothered by the last two paragraphs. They are interesting topics for discussion, but that's where they belong, in the discussion. The article itself should be kept strictly on the topic of Ms. Shin and the events surrounding her life, death, and trial.

I am going to take the liberty of removing the last two paragraphs in a week, barring serious objection.

Terrible tragedy
I actually, to a small extent, knew Liz Shin. She was from my town and graduated in the same class as my sister (whom was five grades ahead of me, which is why I say that I only kind of knew Liz). It is obvious from her college experiences that she was both very sick and very lonely; my sister told me after her untimely passing that she didn't think Liz had many friends in high school. With that said, Liz was also an absolutely exceptional student, and incredibly intelligent (she graduated as her class's salutitorian). Even though it was many years ago, it was still a horrible tragedy that happened, and I can only hope mental counseling- at MIT and in general- have been slightly improved because of the awful events that unfolded. -- Kicking222 01:37, 18 May 2006 (UTC)

Wrong death date?
At the beginning of the article, it says that Elizabeth died in 1998, but then it says a dorm-mate found her burning alive in 2000. Which is accurate and can someone please fix this? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.167.201.194 (talk) 04:27, 15 May 2010 (UTC)

the calculations for the chinese population is wrong...if chinese form 19.7% of the total population of 65 000...then the number of chinese should be 12 805 and not 11 375 ? and you should describe that Brassard has a mini chinatown, which consist of 2 centres(according to what i see..because i'm from Montreal).

At this point, the transportation section is pretty thorough compared to the rest of the article, right? Is point format the ideal form for this type of information? Jsmaster24 02:49, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

 * The point format makes the section look choppy and overly long. Can we edit some of this info into a couple of paragraphs, perhaps leaving out some of the less significant information.  I would volunteer to do this myself if no one else wants to, but I am less familiar with some of these roads (I have family in Brossard but I live in MTL). Sbacle 17:50, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

 * OK, sounds like a good idea; some of those roads may not be necessary to be included. I can help out too. Jsmaster24 18:18, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

There should be a mini article of Quartier DIX30 somewhere here, which links to the main article of the shopping center. Webman25 16:29, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

Dysnomia (moon)

Dysnomia (formally (136199) Eris I Dysnomia) is the only known moon of the dwarf planet Eris and is the second-largest known moon of a dwarf planet, after Pluto I Charon. It was discovered in September 2005 by Mike Brown and the Laser Guide Star Adaptive Optics (LGSAO) team at the W. M. Keck Observatory. It carried the provisional designation of  until it was officially named Dysnomia (from the Ancient Greek word Δυσνομία meaning anarchy/lawlessness) in September 2006, after the daughter of the Greek goddess Eris.

With an estimated diameter of $37,273 km$, Dysnomia spans 24% to 29% of Eris's diameter. It is significantly less massive than Eris, with a density consistent with it being mainly composed of ice. In stark contrast to Eris's highly-reflective icy surface, Dysnomia has a very dark surface that reflects 5% of incoming visible light, resembling typical trans-Neptunian objects around Dysnomia's size. These physical properties indicate Dysnomia likely formed from a large impact on Eris, in a similar manner to other binary dwarf planet systems like Pluto and, and the Earth–Moon system.

Discovery
In 2005, the adaptive optics team at the Keck telescopes in Hawaii carried out observations of the four brightest Kuiper belt objects (Pluto,, , and ), using the newly commissioned laser guide star adaptive optics system. Observations taken on 10 September 2005, revealed a moon in orbit around Eris, provisionally designated. In keeping with the Xena nickname that was already in use for Eris, the moon was nicknamed "Gabrielle" by its discoverers, after Xena's sidekick.

Physical characteristics
Submillimeter-wavelength observations of the Eris–Dysnomia system's thermal emissions by the Atacama Large Millimeter Array (ALMA) in 2015 first showed that Dysnomia had a large diameter and a very low albedo, with the initial estimate being $0.006$. Further observations by ALMA in 2018 refined Dysnomia's diameter to $15.786 d$ (24% to 29% of Eris's diameter) and an albedo of $0.172 km/s$. Of the known moons of dwarf planets, only Charon is larger, making Dysnomia the second-largest moon of a dwarf planet. Dysnomia's low albedo significantly contrasts with Eris's extremely high albedo of 0.96; its surface has been described to be darker than coal, which is a typical characteristic seen in trans-Neptunian objects around Dysnomia's size.

Eris and Dysnomia are mutually tidally locked, like Pluto and Charon. Astrometric observations of the Eris–Dysnomia system by ALMA show that Dysnomia does not induce detectable barycentric wobbling in Eris's position, implying its mass must be less than $15.774 d$ (mass ratio $0.172 km/s$). This is below the estimated mass range of $0 °$ (mass ratio 0.01–0.03) that would normally allow Eris to be tidally locked within the range of the Solar System, suggesting that Eris must therefore be unusually dissipative. ALMA's upper-limit mass estimate for Dysnomia corresponds to an upper-limit density of $78.29 °$, implying a mostly icy composition. The shape of Dysnomia is not known, but its low density suggests that it should not be in hydrostatic equilibrium.

The brightness difference between Dysnomia and Eris decreases with longer and redder wavelengths; Hubble Space Telescope observations show that Dysnomia is 500 times fainter than Eris (6.70-magnitude difference) in visible light, whereas near-infrared Keck telescope observations show that Dysnomia is ~60 times fainter (4.43-magnitude difference) than Eris. This indicates Dysnomia has a very different spectrum and redder color than Eris, indicating a significantly darker surface, something that has been proven by submillimeter observations.

Orbit
Combining Keck and Hubble observations, the orbit of Dysnomia was used to determine the mass of Eris through Kepler's third law of planetary motion. Dysnomia's average orbital distance from Eris is approximately 37300 km, with a calculated orbital period of 15.786 days, or approximately half a month. This shows that the mass of Eris is 1.27 times that of Pluto. Extensive observations by Hubble indicate that Dysnomia has a nearly circular orbit around Eris, with a low orbital eccentricity of $45.49 °$. Over the course of Dysnomia's orbit, its distance from Eris varies by 462 ± 105 km due to its slightly eccentric orbit.

Dynamical simulations of Dysnomia suggest that its orbit should have completely circularized through mutual tidal interactions with Eris within timescales of 5–17 million years, regardless of the moon's density. A non-zero eccentricity would thus mean that Dysnomia's orbit is being perturbed, possibly due to the presence of an additional inner satellite of Eris. However, it is possible that the measured eccentricity is not real, but due to interference of the measurements by albedo features, or systematic errors.

From Hubble observations from 2005 to 2018, the inclination of Dysnomia's orbit with respect to Eris's heliocentric orbit is calculated to be approximately 78°. Since the inclination is less than 90°, Dysnomia's orbit is therefore prograde relative to Eris's orbit. In 2239, Eris and Dysnomia will enter a period of mutual events in which Dysnomia's orbital plane is aligned edge-on to the Sun, allowing for Eris and Dysnomia to take turns eclipsing each other.

Formation
Eight of the ten largest trans-Neptunian objects are known to have at least one satellite. Among the fainter members of the trans-Neptunian population, only about 10% are known to have satellites. This is thought to imply that collisions between large KBOs have been frequent in the past. Impacts between bodies of the order of $61.59 °$ across would throw off large amounts of material that would coalesce into a moon. A similar mechanism is thought to have led to the formation of the Moon when Earth was struck by a giant impactor (see Giant impact hypothesis) early in the history of the Solar System.

Name
Mike Brown, the moon's discoverer, chose the name Dysnomia for the moon. As the daughter of Eris, the mythological Dysnomia fit the established pattern of naming moons after gods associated with the primary body (hence, Jupiter's largest moons are named after lovers of Jupiter, while Saturn's are named after his fellow Titans). The English translation of Dysnomia, "lawlessness", also echoes Lucy Lawless, the actress who played Xena in Xena: Warrior Princess on television. Before receiving their official names, Eris and Dysnomia had been nicknamed "Xena" and "Gabrielle", though Brown states that the connection was accidental.

A primary reason for the name was its similarity to the name of Brown's wife, Diane, following a pattern established with Pluto. Pluto owes its name in part to its first two letters, which form the initials of Percival Lowell, the founder of the observatory where its discoverer, Clyde Tombaugh, was working, and the person who inspired the search for "Planet X". James Christy, who discovered Charon, did something similar by adding the Greek ending -on to Char, the nickname of his wife Charlene. (Christy wasn't aware that the resulting 'Charon' was a figure in Greek mythology.) "Dysnomia", similarly, has the same first letter as Brown's wife, Diane.

Category talk:Society

Society vs. Human Societies
I think Category:Society and Category:Human societies should be merged because there is little or no difference between both concepts, as society is almost always human. Therefore, there isn't any reason to have these separated categories. I suggest to have only the category Society and merge Human societies into Society. What's your opinion? --Jaimedv 23:24, 2 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Agree. For the purposes of portals and navigation, that should be fine, though one should prominently note certain animals have society of a sort. dml 14:20, 26 November 2005 (UTC)

Disagree. Society is dealing with groups of individuals. So, it should be having human society as a category. For the purposes of portals and navigation, i suggest Category:Social --Arjunkmohan (talk) 15:31, 26 July 2014 (UTC)

Portal
You merged the categories without merging the text from Category:Human societies. Frankly this category text looks far worse than human societies did in terms of formatting. Does someone want to go and reformat the portal part of the category page or undelete the other category to get the text? dml 00:46, 10 December 2005 (UTC)

Categorisation Top 10
Why did you make this category part of the Top 10 category but with an inicial space: It doesn't look so good to me, mainly because it isn't sorted in the S block but instead, in a no initial block. jοτομικρόν | Talk 13:05, 1 April 2006 (UTC)

circular categories
Society is the subcat and supercat for culture (and, obviously, vice versa). Where within the (useless) higher categories should this (or culture) be situated?

Culture is the valued traditions of the people who compose a society. In the sense used here, "culture" is a subcategory of "society." --129.98.214.103 (talk) 13:14, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

Category
I think this category should not be under the Fundamental Category. Personally, I like order to things, and something being under the Fundamental Category that isn't an "Umbrella" Category shouldn't be there. Additionally, the Category: Social systems (closely related to Scociety) is under the System Category, which is in turn under the Structure and Nature Categories (both "Umbrella" Categories that are under the Fundamental Category). I am bringing this up before I make any changes that would affect the Category system. Esnaz (talk) —Preceding comment was added at 01:31, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

need new a category
I think this category dealing with society. Category:Social has great scope in categorisation to minimise the contents in the category.--Arjunkmohan (talk) 15:13, 26 July 2014 (UTC)

Remove humans category and structure category
Society is a more global category than humans and structure categories so I remove humans and structure categories. It's also for prevent the loops.Zipodu (talk) 14:32, 26 July 2020 (UTC)

Browne House

The Abraham Browne House (built c. 1694–1701) is a colonial house located at 562 Main Street, Watertown, Massachusetts, US. It is now a nonprofit museum operated by Historic New England and open to the public two afternoons per year.

The house was originally a modest one-over-one dwelling. The house features steep roofing and casement windows. During restoration works in 1919, details of 17th century finish were found. The ground floor consists of one large room that is used for living, cooking, and sleeping.

By 1919 the house was nearly ruined when it was acquired by William Sumner Appleton, who in 1923 donated it to Historic New England. The house has grown by a series of enlargements but they occurred behind the original block, thus preserving the profile of the one-over-one elevation. The exception, a 19th-century addition, was removed before 1919. The Browne House is one of fewer than a half-dozen houses in New England to retain this profile.

The Abraham Browne house was featured on PBS's This Old House television program.

Stephen A. Jarislowsky

Stephen A. Jarislowsky, (born September 9, 1925) is a Canadian business magnate, investor, and philanthropist. He is the founder, chairman and CEO of Jarislowsky Fraser Limited, a Canadian investment management firm with over Can$40 billion in assets under management.

His personal wealth was estimated at $1.42 billion in December 2017, making him the 34th richest person in Canada.

Biography
Jarislowsky was born in Berlin, Germany, the son of Kaethe (née Gassmann) and Alfred Jarislowsky.

In 2007, Jarislowsky's firm, which owns 18 percent of the shares of Canfor, was embroiled in a bitter proxy fight with Vancouver-based tycoon Jim Pattison, who owns 25 percent of the company. Pattison won and ousted CEO Jim Shepherd over Canfor's poor performance and declining share price, replacing him for the interim with Jim Shepard.

In several magazine and newspaper articles between 2002 and 2004, Jarislowsky predicted a deep economic recession, which began in 2008 in the United States and spread around the world. On December 16, 2008, in an interview on CBC's The Current, he opined that the current recession would last at least two to five years and may last much longer if corrective measures are not taken by governments and the general public. He further argued that inflation is the only solution in the circumstances to reducing the enormous debt loads held at all levels of society and that massive and immediate government spending is also needed to stimulate the economy.

Personal life
He is married and has four children. Jarislowsky is a Companion of the Order of Canada and a Grand Officer (promoted from Knight) of the National Order of Quebec.

Business ethics
Apart from his personal business pursuits, he is a defender of business ethics (and a critic of ethical breaches). In 2002 he co-founded (with Claude Lamoureux) the Canadian Coalition for Good Governance to promote strong business ethics.

Quebec separatism
Jarislowsky is openly against Quebec nationalism. In a 1997 speech to the Westmount Municipal Association, Jarislowsky drew comparisons between Parizeau and Bouchard with the fascism of Franco's Spain and Hitler's Nazi Germany and told how, days after the 1995 referendum, he suggested the partition of Quebec and the transformation of Montreal into a City state. In his speech, he stated that his fellow citizens should oppose the PQ which he said, "feed on the same kind of quasi religious fervor on which all fascists feed (be it the Soviet Union, Nazi Germany of fascist Italy, etc.) A Parizeau, a Bouchard should never be underestimated and, despite lullabies, should never put one to sleep."

Boards and charities
He was a Director of the C.D. Howe Institute and has also been active in numerous other corporations besides his own including SNC-Lavalin, Canfor, Southam, Swiss Bank, and Abitibi. He has participated in educational, cultural and charitable activities, and with his wife Gail, to date has endowed numerous eponymous university chairs in Canada.

Sustainable Population Australia

Sustainable Population Australia (SPA) (formerly Australians for an Ecologically Sustainable Population) is an Australian special advocacy group, founded in Canberra in 1988, that seeks to establish an ecologically sustainable human population. SPA claims that it is an "ecological group dedicated to preserving species' habitats globally and in Australia from the degradation caused by human population growth", and that it "works on many fronts to encourage informed public debate about how Australia and the world can achieve an ecologically sustainable population".

SPA argues that population growth exacerbates Australia's water shortage and adds to greenhouse gas emissions.

SPA also seeks to highlight what it claims are the negative economic effects of population growth, such as increased housing costs, lower wages and living standards, and opposes the current historically high level of immigration to Australia. Immigration to Australia has averaged around 200,000 per annum over the past decade. It is the highest rate of immigration in the world.

SPA also opposes plans by the government to increase population growth with the baby bonus, a payout that encourages parents to have more children. SPA believes that the baby bonus, and the many other government "breeding incentives", should only be paid for the first child, halved for the second, and not paid at all for any more births than that.

Talk:Rajput/Archive 1

This article became part of the apparently Rajasthani nationalism inspired anonymous POV -campaign by 61.17.113.245 (et al.) over at Kshatriya. It probably needs NPOVing (or reversion) and cleanup.

I do not know the etymology of Rajput (rajaputra seems fair enough), but it may be disputed, note Talk:Kshatriya:
 * "-put" in "Rajput" is not a sanskrit suffix for son. Raj-put originated from the word Rajputana (a mixed word variation from the sanskrit word rAjasthAna, the region of royal palaces). The word is not ancient and has no reference in the Vedic texts.

-- Dbachmann 10:18, 10 Aug 2004 (UTC)

1)Rajput comes from sanskrit Rajanya + putra. Rajanya-- Royal /King. putra--- son.

2) Rajasthan-- Land of kings and Rajas and NOT region of royal palaces.  That would be 'Mahal stan' or Haveli stan in the rajasthani language.

 * I would agree. I was only pointing out that there seem to be people contesting this. Dbachmann 09:22, 19 Aug 2004 (UTC)

3) I have never heard of the phenomenon called "Rajasthani Nationalism' ??

wonder what that could be. If someone could kindly enlighten me.

with best regards, Kartavya Virya Singh Jamval.

 * call it "Rajput Chauvinism", then. Fact is that somebody seems terribly intent on emphasizing that a) Kshatriya=Rajput and b) "originally" Kshatriyas were "above" Brahmins, without giving any historical justification whatsoever. *shrug* Dbachmann 09:22, 19 Aug 2004 (UTC)

In all fairness, I think we can remove the reference to Huns, if our Rajput readers find this idea so offensive: It's just speculation anyway. By saying that their origins are obscure, we are basically implying that they may or may not have a hunnic strain. dab 20:39, 28 Aug 2004 (UTC)

Dear Mr Dbachmann,

I appreciate your knowledge on Indiology and indeed much of the information you wrote is quite accurate,but you still havent removed the references connecting rajput lineage to the Huns and that we are descended from the invaders who attacked India from the northwest.

So I am deleting that myself, if there's no objection.

You gave the reference of the manu smriti for the hierarchy of races and castes. Thats excellent..BUT theres a slight problem....the Manu smriti is a law book .Its not a religious treatise.

actually nowhere in the hindu scriptures will you find the superiority of any caste over the other. if you give me the example of the Purusha shakta of the rigveda, it outlines the function..not the hierarchy of the castes.races Its by spiritual and mystical right that the Kshatriya was on the top of the society ( which I was 'shouting' about all this while.)

secondly, sir, If i may say so..most of the information that you have posted here are direct copy pastes of other webpages.

I can prove it to you,sentence by sentence with the corresponding website/page that you have copy pasted from.(if you wish) e.gs..britannica encyclopaedia etc.

I dont know about copyright violations etc, but this doesnt reflect well with your own view of objective and sincere research.

Thirdly,

Your borrowed claim that the Rajputs have obscure ancestry beyond 1000AD in the kshatriya webpage..is..(if i may use the word )in utter ignorance.

The Mewar Line goes up to the Era of Lord Ram (around 5000 BC ) if that is imaginable and conceivable by western society. They even have records which i believe arent doctored by any brahmins as in Shivaji's case. They are kept in the archives of Udaipur palace in rajasthan till date.

Mr Dbachmann,I frankly dont know and dont care about the allegmanic race...but I respect people who are aware of their own roots. my regards to you. And sir thank you very very much :) ..i know my own lineage..descended from King Prithu of the vedic age around 700 BC.

we dont need to prove such things..its only the limited western mind, which doesnt think its evolutionarily,socially and chronologically possible due to its own conditionings.

Mr. Dbachmann, it was nice having a discourse with you ( which i cant say for the other belligerent, internet-learnt morons here ).

my best regards,

your friendly neighbourhood rajput chauvinist.

K V S J.

The word rajput comes into play after 5-6th century AD. As such Rajput is NOT synonymous with ancient kshatriya in the Vedic hymns. It is a medieval ranking of the ruling class in north and western part of southern asia and does not designate common desecnt or ethnicity but a rank acquired. Rajputs are indistinguishable from other folks of their respective region, and show a huge variety in their phenotype. So to say that they are all generally taller, fairer and more "meditterannnid" than other peoples of northwestern region in India is false. --Omer Khan

 * Feel free to make those changes. IMHO, this article still reads too much like a 19th-century Romantic view of the Rajputs. Perhaps I can't see it due to the deficiency of my "western" mind, but most of the generally-accepted histories I have read, by both westerners and Indians, can't document an unbroken line between ancient Kshatriyas and modern Rajputs, much less a 7000 year pedigree. That is not to say it isn't true, but there just doesn't seem to be much in the way of solid evidence. Tom Radulovich 21:35, 5 Jan 2005 (UTC)

The word rajput comes into play after 5-6th century AD. As such Rajput is NOT synonymous with ancient kshatriya in the Vedic hymns

Omer Khan--Pakistani I assume ? .LOL. Omer Khan,I have heard Islamic propaganda saying that Lord Shri Ram and Lord Shri Krishna were descended from the middle eastern tribal, ass-riding ,camel herding and date chewing Solomon and Abraham.

This is perfect !..Now we shall have Islamic mullahs teaching us the esoteric meaning of the vedas or something.

Omer Khan, Kindly stick to your koran and your hadiths and satisfy yourself with the camel race mythology there. This isnt your cup of tea.

---Shonan Talpade

To whomsoever it concerns,

Kartavya Virya singh Jameval was absolutely right in what he discussed. At the end of the vedic era,the vedic kings divided their kingdom, during their lifetimes, into small principalities which were ruled by their sons and appointed kin. Hence thats the root of the word Rajput-- abbrv of Rajan-putra (Son of king), cos they were literally sons of kings and not actual solemn Kings per se.

Now it is accepted in Hindu society that the earliest known monarch with his capital at Ayodhya, was Iksvaku, who founded the aryan solar dynasty of Ksatriyas. Now he is mentioned In pali buddhist scriptures as King Okkaka.

Lord Ram too had divided the kingdom, during his lifetime, into small principalities. He coronated his eldest son Kusa as the king of Kusavati present Kushinagar, where buddha breathed his last.

So as per what ive written Lord Ram was A Rajah and his son Kusa was a 'raj-put'

As a rule No tom, dick or harry in ancient India could assume the title of Rajput, without having a lineage going up till the ancient kings. Yes ,there could be exceptions to that rule, ( as what is mentioned Shivaji had done when he coronated himself )but those examples are few and far between.

To whoever wrote -->The word rajput comes into play after 5-6th century AD. As such Rajput is NOT synonymous with ancient kshatriya in the Vedic hymns

Purusha shukta rigveda--"Kshatriya" is not mentioned there---The word mentioned in the rigvedic hymn is "Rajanya".:)

Siddhartha ( Gautam Buddha's ) army commander was a person called Bikram Singha and he was also a rajput--The word Rajput is mentioned in buddhist literature-and that was around the 5-6th CENTURY B.C

(Bows down to Kartavya Virya singh Jameval )

Hunnish origin theory
In all fairness, I think we can remove the reference to Huns, if our Rajput readers find this idea so offensive: It's just speculation anyway. By saying that their origins are obscure, we are basically implying that they may or may not have a hunnic strain. dab 20:39, 28 Aug 2004 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure this is the best solution. You don't burn books simply because somebody's offended by what's in them. It is speculation I suppose, but one with a scholarly pedigree. (I mean, I assume we have articles on scientific racism and creationism and the Protocols of the Elders of Zion and so on – doesn't mean we endorse such beliefs.) I suggest it might be better to cite where such opinions come from: for example, the sceptical and Western-educated Indian historian Romila Thapar, who makes this argument for the origins of the Rajputs in Volume I of her History of India. Then our Rajput readers can give evidence to support why they feel Ms Thapar is wrong, as K V S J has begun to do below. Cheers, QuartierLatin1968 16:53, 6 Apr 2005 (UTC)

"Possibly" Raj-putra
Is there any confusion whatsoever that Rajput comes from Raj-putra?

doesnt matter if indians belive it or not!!
Im Rajput, of NARO "goth"/clan and im a muslim also... there are many rajputs in pakistan....

 * I'm reinstating the above comment, not because I agree with it especially, but because it is extremely bad practice to delete somebody's comments simply because you disagree with them. Engage their ideas, don't censor them out! Cheers, Quartier Latin   1968  14:51, 16 August 2005 (UTC)

Baseless arguments against Rajputs
There are many Indian counterparts that counter the fact that there can be Muslim Rajputs. You are fundamentally wrong. Simply Muslim/Hindu refers to faith regardless of your social standing. There have been Muslim Rajas from both the Kokar, Janjua, Bhatti, Rathore and Chauhan clans all Suryavansh and Chandravansh lineages. The term Raja is just that, 'King/lord ruler' of a region. Their faith is regardless of their status. A ruler no matter what his faith is still a ruler, so the question of outcaste or leaving the Hindu faith means that you are no longer King is ludicrous as nowhere in history has this occurred or been accepted. There have been many non-Hindu Rajas and Samraats such as Chandragupt Maurya and Ashoka Maurya who were Jain and Bhuddist respectively yet they were still rulers? Does this mean that the title of King/Ruler which essentially is what Raja means is only exclusive to the Hindus? Obviously not.

Many references are made by people questioning the lineages of many well known Rajput clans as to their descendancy, posing the point that they may be of Hunnic or Scythic origin and somehow amalgamated into the Hindu Caste system. This again is purely speculation and no more. The Rajputs themselves are available to provide evidence of their lineages undisturbed over centuries back to prominent Kings/Rajas and should the needs arise, many such houses in India and Pakistan have provided so, re: the Rathores to Lord Rama, the Kauravs of Sri Lanka (Kshatriya Society) to the Kurus, the Janjua to Arjun Pandav, the Bhatti to Rai Jaisal of the Yadav clan, and many more. The Varna was very dynamic and many Rajputs were downgraded to Jats during the Hindu reign pre Islamic times on account of their poor service as rulers, and many outsiders were upgraded to Rai/Raja/Rajput status through might and war became Rajas i.e. the Ghakkar/Kokar who are essentially Iranian Sassanids, but gained Royal title and acceptance as one through sheer determination and unrelenting campaigns against other powerful clans.

The question of religion influencing social status in this respect is therefore unjustified and malicious. The kings remained Kings regardless of their new found faiths. This has been the case in many countries let alone India.

Tall_Strong_Christian_Scythian_Rajput_American_Aircraft_Engine_Mechanic_6ft-4in_Michigan_USA

Doesn't matter what nomenclature the Socialist nation of India comes up with, every few decades to hide the obvious physical

truth about who at least the Scythian Branch of the "Rajputs" are. They don't look like Indians, are tall, strong, oval-faced,

Greek and Scythian looking people. With of course a maternal DNA side to Hindu woman. But the Paternal DNA of at least the

Scythian Rajputs is PURELY Central Asian, Greek, Afghanistani, Mongol, Turkish, Kazakhstani Scythian. Rajputs of the

"higher" order, don't look, act or behave like most of the Indians. If you were to change their names and assimilate

them to the West, almost no one would see them as "Indians" as they would see them as Middle Easterners, Turks, Greeks,

or Persians. But in "brainwashing-your-brain" Socialist India, you are whatever lie they tell you are, even though the looks

and physical proof is contrary to the popular myths "The World's Biggest Democracy" masaquerades as, when they are really

Socialists. Look at the Punjabis, Rajputs and Pathans. I mean the real ones. They don't look, act or behave anything like

Indians. They are tall, strong, fair, technical, military and building wizards, who build all sorts of heavy gear, weapons,

buildings, engines, aircraft, nicely paved roads, palaces, skyscrapers, welders. They are much like the American Redneck

and Military Working Class to say the least. Many Punjabis and Rajputs who do come to the USA, open up very successful

Mechanic Garages, Welding, Building Construction, Aviation & Automotive Production/Repair setups, even Electronics and

Firearms Repair/Manufacturing. They are nothing like the small, skinny, darker, timid Indians. Who are also smart, but

weak. They're more the Desk Jockey Design Engineers, Doctors or In-House Scientists. I Have nothing against Indians at all.

They are smart, and on the fore-front of many endeavors. But just because Rajputs, Punjabis and Pathans aren't more than

2 to 3% of India and 35% of Pakistan, doesn't mean the rest can just lump them up as "South Asians". Rajputs/Punjabis/

Pathans are genetically overwhelmingly Central Asian/Kazakhstani (Scythian), Persian and Greek, blended with Indian females.

Some are 100% pure, and look White. What's my point? My point is, is that the DNA of most Rajputs, Punjabis and Pathans

comes from the Middle East, Central Asia and Eastern Europe. This is why the ONLY legitimate military force in Pakistan and

India today, are these fierce warriors descended from some of the most powerful, resilient, technically skilled and brutal

warriors, India and Pakistan have ever been attacked by. This being Scythians, Huns and Greeks. A small 3% can manage to

dominate all of South Asia's military prominance. People today still cringe when they hear the name Singh, or Chauhan.

Here in America, most Americans see them as hardy, handsome skilled technical and military people. They don't see them

as "Indians", as they see them as some type of Middle Easterners who happened to not be Arabs. Indians know all I am

saying, but they don't want to encourage the minorities of India, to have prominence. All they want Punjabis, Rajputs and

Pathans for at least in India, is to build their machine guns, firearms, jet engines, aircraft, boats, skyscrapers, roads,

piston engines, cars, electronics, be their military soliders and their police officers. Aside from that, Indians couldn't

give a crap about Punjabis, Rajputs and Pathans. That is why more of them are leaving India and becoming Americans. They

have the most success in America overall in terms of developments as well as social success. Many Anglo-Saxon men and

women are attracted to the tall, strong, hardy Rajput/Persian/Greek types. Socially they do well. Indians do very well too,

but not so much socially, because they're more different from Whites, than the Punjabis, Rajputs and Pathans are. The

Rajputs, Pathans and Punjabis are closer to Whites genetically, and assimilate easier. Either way, on a political level,

everyone is "Indians" from that region, but on a racial level, these "Indians" could be any race, color, religion, culture,

political belief, and ethnicity there is. I just wanted to say this. I know you all know what I say is true, although

some of you, just to disagree with the truth you will do so anyways. But we don't need to argue, you know the truth in

your heart, as do we. Pride is the root sin of all sins. Pride leads to arrogance on who is better, when all are differently

equal in the Lord God's eyes. The Lord God made everyone different anyways to accomplish different things. Just as He made

all the different fruits and vegetables as well as animals and crops. They're all life, plants, animals, and crops, but they

all have differently equal and important purposes. So let's forget about who is more White, more Black, more Chinese, more

Middle Eastern, in the end it's one's control over their spirit and their discipline in developing their God-given talents.

Remember we really do not wrestle with flesh and blood, but with spiritual wickedness in the high places. Our own spirits

are constantly tested to erupt out of control. This is our biggest enemy as human beings. A wise man rules over his spirit,

moreso than a man who takes an entire city. Nothing I say here is anything any of you don't already know. I just ask that

people obey their God-given Conscience and stop denying the truth. Then everything will set back to a healthy balance

within nations and the world over.

Wikipedia:Peer review/List of eponymous adjectives in English/archive1

List of eponymous adjectives in English
I would like to see this list reach featured list status. If you do review this, please remember that these criteria, not the regular featured article criteria, apply. Thanks, Taco Deposit | Talk-o to Taco 23:27, 2 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Overall the list looks pretty good. My main concern is determining how complete the list is?  Do you have any sources you can cite to help indicate that the list includes all eponymous adjectives included in some well known reference such as the OED or Merriam-Webster dictionary?  Without some type of references section it will be very difficult to satisfy section 2 of the criteria. --Allen3 talk 23:49, 2 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Well, I don't know how that would work. I can certainly look some of these words up in the OED and then cite it in a references section. But I don't know how I would be able to confirm that tht list contains all eponymous adjectives in the OED. The OED is pretty big. Taco Deposit | Talk-o to Taco 12:32, 3 October 2005 (UTC)
 * I don't know how far this can be featured. Are you certain that all eponymous adjectives in the English dictionary are listed here? If not, it cannot be a featured list. =Nichalp   «Talk»=  04:57, 4 October 2005 (UTC)

Moravská Nová Ves

Moravská Nová Ves (until 1911 Nová Ves; Mährisch Neudorf) is a market town in Břeclav District in the South Moravian Region of the Czech Republic. It has about 2,600 inhabitants.

Etymology
The name literally means "Moravian new village".

Geography
Moravská Nová Ves is located about 10 km northeast of Břeclav and 51 km southeast of Brno, on the border with Slovakia. It lies in a flat landscape of the Lower Morava Valley. The municipality is crossed by the Kyjovka River. The Czech-Slovak border is formed here by the Morava River.

History
The first written mention of Nová Ves is from 1261. The settlement was founded shortly before by the Cistercian monastery in Velehrad. Located near the Moravian-Hungarian border, the village was constantly threatened by raids from the Kingdom of Hungary, which hindered its development. This state lasted until the 18th century. After that, Nová Ves began to develop and in 1807 it was promoted to a market town. Since 1911, it has been using the name Moravská Nová Ves.

Moravská Nová Ves was heavily damaged by the 2021 South Moravia tornado.

Economy
Moravská Nová Ves is known for viticulture and winemaking. It lies in the Slovácká wine subregion.

Transport
The I/55 road (the section from Břeclav to Hodonín) passes through the municipal territory.

Moravská Nová Ves is located on the railway line Přerov–Břeclav.

Sights
The main landmark of the market town is the Church of Saint James the Great. It was built in 1771–1773, on the site of an older church. The tower survived from the original building and was raised during the construction of the new church.

1996 Tippeligaen

The 1996 Tippeligaen was the 52nd completed season of top division football in Norway. Each team played 26 games with 3 points given for wins and 1 for draws. Number twelve, thirteen and fourteen are relegated. The winners of the two groups of the first division (second tier) are promoted, as well as the winner of a play-off match between the two second placed teams in the two groups of the first division. This was the last time the first division was organized into two groups – from 1997 and onwards the first division has had all teams play in the same league.

Improvments
In addition to adding a synopsis and a summary of major influences, which flesh the article out enough that I don't think it's a stub any more, I've edited the opening section, firstly to remove the translators' names (non-notable, and the information's all at the English site in the links section), and secondly to add more details on why this work is notable (experimental style and authorised translation).

I do have a conflict of interest to declare: I am one of the translators of the English version. Haeleth 23:31, 2 October 2005 (UTC)

I have edited out the links pointing to potential articles for insani and Haeleth, for the same reason Haeleth gives above -- non-notable, and this skates very close to vanity.

I, too, have a conflict of interest to declare: I am the other translator who worked on the English version. --Gp32 23:53, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Canongate Kirk

Comment
Surely the parish cannot include Edinburgh Castle — that's right at the other end of the Royal Mile!! Even with all the church closings there must be several ones closer (including, of course, St Giles). Doops | talk 23:32, 2 October 2005 (UTC)

 * For historical reasons Canongate Kirk is the parish church of Edinburgh Castle (even though it is detached from the rest of the parish). The Governor of the Castle has his own pew in the Kirk. --Matthewross 23:39, 2 October 2005 (UTC)
