CCC
Honestly, there were a lot of organizations on campus with similar names and acronyms. One of my roommates Freshman year joined the group that I *think* was the CCC, and that I know had previously been banned from campus because of proselytizing misbehaviour. As a result, I had a close up and personal view of their tactics. That said, I'm not certain that I remember who "they" were, and I do not want to pin any accusations on CCC unfairly.

Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji (Hiroshige)

Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji (富士三十六景) is the title of two series of woodblock prints by Japanese ukiyo-e artist Hiroshige, depicting Mount Fuji in differing seasons and weather conditions from a variety of different places and distances. The 1852 series, published by Sanoya Kihei, are in landscape orientation using the chūban format, while the 1858 series are in the portrait ōban format and were published by Tsutaya Kichizō. The same subject had previously been dealt with by Hokusai in two of his own series, Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji, produced from c. 1830 to 1832, and One Hundred Views of Mount Fuji, published in three volumes from 1834 to 1849.

3 Women

3 Women is a 1977 American psychological drama film written, produced and directed by Robert Altman and starring Shelley Duvall, Sissy Spacek and Janice Rule. Set in a dusty California desert town, it depicts the increasingly bizarre relationship between an adult woman (Duvall), her teenage roommate and co-worker (Spacek) and a middle-aged pregnant woman (Rule).

The story came directly from a dream Altman had, which he adapted into a treatment, intending to film without a screenplay. 20th Century Fox financed the project on the basis of Altman's past work, and a screenplay was completed before filming.

3 Women premiered at the 1977 Cannes Film Festival and earned positive reviews from critics, who particularly praised the performances of the cast (especially Duvall's). Interpretations of the film are centered around its use of psychoanalysis and discussion of identity. It was not a strong box office success despite Hollywood studio financing and distribution. After its theatrical release, the film was unavailable on home video for almost thirty years, until it was released by The Criterion Collection in 2004.

Plot
Pinky Rose, a timid and awkward young woman, starts working at a health spa for the elderly in a small California desert town. She becomes enamored of Millie Lammoreaux, a relentlessly outgoing and self-absorbed co-worker who talks incessantly. Despite their stark personality differences, Pinky and Millie become roommates at the Purple Sage Apartments, owned by a drinking, womanizing, has-been Hollywood stunt double, Edgar Hart, and his wife Willie, a mysterious pregnant woman who rarely speaks and paints striking and unsettling murals.

Millie takes Pinky along on her visits to Dodge City, a local tavern and shooting range also owned by Willie and Edgar, where Millie continues expounding her petty opinions and interests to her new roommate. Millie's babble alienates most of her co-workers, neighbors, acquaintances, and would-be suitors; Pinky is the only person in Millie's orbit who enjoys her advice about dating, fashion, cuisine and interior decorating gleaned from women's magazines.

Tensions begin to rise between Pinky and Millie over their living situation. After a quarrel with Pinky one night, Millie leaves the apartment and returns with a drunken Edgar. Pinky begs Millie to consider Edgar's pregnant wife and not have sex with him. Millie, angry at what she perceives as Pinky's meddling and sabotaging her social life, yells at her and suggests she move out of the apartment. A distraught Pinky jumps off the apartment balcony into the swimming pool.

Pinky survives the suicide attempt but falls into a coma. Millie, feeling responsible, visits her in the hospital daily. When Pinky still fails to wake up, Millie contacts Pinky's parents in Texas, hoping their presence at the hospital will help her regain consciousness. When Pinky wakes up, she does not recognize her parents and furiously demands that they leave. Once sent home to live with Millie again, Pinky copies Millie's mannerisms and behavior—drinking and smoking, sleeping with Edgar, shooting guns at Dodge City—and demands to be called Mildred, both women's birth name.

Millie becomes increasingly frustrated by Pinky's imitative shift in personality and begins to exhibit Pinky's timid and submissive personality herself. One night after Pinky has a bad dream, she shares a bed with Millie platonically. Edgar, soused again, enters their apartment and makes sexual overtures before casually telling them that Willie is about to give birth. Pinky and Millie drive to Edgar and Willie's house, where Willie is alone and in agonizing labor. Her baby is stillborn, as Pinky fails to summon medical help during the delivery as Millie told her to.

Later, Pinky and Millie are working at Dodge City, having again changed roles: Pinky has reverted to her child-like timidity and refers to Millie as her mother, while Millie has assumed Willie's role in running the tavern—even imitating Willie's make-up and attire. A delivery vendor at the tavern refers to Edgar's death from a "gun accident" when talking to Millie, who offers a pat, hollow reply that suggests the three women are complicit in Edgar's murder.

Themes and interpretations
Altman has said the film is about "empty vessels in an empty landscape". Writer Frank Caso identified themes of the film as including obsession, schizophrenia and personality disorder, and linked the film to Altman's earlier films That Cold Day in the Park (1969) and Images (1972), declaring them a trilogy. Caso states critics have argued the dreamer in the film is Willie, since she says she had a dream at the end of the film, and Pinky had the "dream within a dream".

Psychiatrist Glen O. Gabbard and Krin Gabbard believed 3 Women could best be understood through psychoanalysis and the study of dreams. In theory, a person dreaming can shift from one character into another within the dream. The three titular characters in the film represent the psyche of one person. Whereas Pinky is the child among the three, Millie is the sexually awakened young woman and the pregnant Willie is the mother figure. The Gabbard siblings interpreted Pinky, post-coma, as transforming into Millie, while Millie became more of a mother figure to her. Altman equated the death of Willie's child to the murder of Edgar, which the three title characters appear to all have participated in. Author David Greven agreed psychoanalysis could be used, but saw the relationship between Millie and Pinky as one of mother and daughter, respectively, with Willie at the end of the film being the "grandmotherly figure" who defends Pinky from Millie's scornful mothering. Greven wrote that the film also demonstrated a focus on strong female characters.

The setting is also a key feature in the film, with Joe McElhaney arguing the California landscapes "come to represent something much larger than a 'mere' location". He states it is "a space of death but also one of creation".

Development
Director Robert Altman conceived of the idea for 3 Women while his wife was being treated in a hospital, and he was afraid that she would die. During a restless sleep, he had a dream in which he was directing a film starring Shelley Duvall and Sissy Spacek in an identity theft story, against a desert backdrop. He woke up mid-dream, jotted notes on a pad, and went back to sleep, receiving more details.

Upon waking up, he wanted to make the film, although the dream had not provided him with a complete storyline. Altman consulted author Patricia Resnick to develop a treatment, drawing up 50 pages, initially with no intent to write a full screenplay. Ingmar Bergman's 1966 film Persona was also an influence on the film.

Altman secured approval from 20th Century Fox, which supported the project on the basis of the success of his 1970 film MASH. Studio manager Alan Ladd Jr. also found the story idea interesting, and respected the fact that Altman consistently worked within his budget in past films, as this was before Altman's 1980 film version of Popeye considerably exceeded its initially approved budget.

Filming
The film was shot in Palm Springs, including the apartment scenes, and Desert Hot Springs, California. Although a screenplay was completed, actresses Duvall and Spacek employed much improvisation, particularly in Duvall's silly ramblings and advice on dating. Altman also credited Duvall with drawing up her character's recipes and diary.

For Willie's paintings, the filmmakers employed artist Bodhi Wind, whose real name was Charles Kuklis. The cinematographer, Charles Rosher Jr., worked with the intense sunlight in the California desert.

During the shooting of one scene, Duvall's skirt got caught in a car door. Assistant director Tommy Thompson called for a cut. However, Altman stated he "loved" the accident, and had Duvall intentionally catch her dress and skirt in the door in several scenes.

Release
The film opened in New York City in April 1977. The film was also screened at the Cannes Film Festival in May 1977, which was where Altman first admitted to Ladd the film was based on his dream.

Reception
3 Women has received positive reviews from critics. On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, 85% of 54 critics' reviews are positive. The website's consensus reads: "3 Women is a strange, eerie portrait of late-'70s womanhood that upends and then defies all expectations." Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned the film a score of 82 out of 100, based on 5 critics, indicating "universal acclaim".

Roger Ebert gave the film four stars, calling the first half "a funny, satirical, and sometimes sad study of the community and its people," and adding the film then turns into "masked sexual horror". Ebert added 3 Women to his Great Movies list in 2004, deeming it "Robert Altman's 1977 masterpiece" and calling Duvall's expressions "a study in unease". Vincent Canby, writing for The New York Times, called 3 Women a "funny, moving" film, and Millie "one of the most memorable characterizations Mr. Altman has ever given us," giving credit to Duvall as well. Writing for The New Yorker, Michael Sragow remarked "In the Robert Altman canon, no picture is stranger—and more fascinating—than this 1977 phantasmagoria," adding it is "full of images so rich that they transcend its metaphoric structure," praising Duvall. Molly Haskell, in New York, ranked the film as the second best of the year, describing it as "ambitious, pretentious, gentle, goofy and mesmerizing".

Texas Monthly critics Marie Brenner and Jesse Kornbluth stated Altman had a likely desire to be the "American Bergman," calling 3 Women "an attempt at equaling Bergman's Persona". Brenner and Kornbluth credited Duvall for an "extraordinary performance," but lamented the second-half shedding a documentary style. Charles Champlin of the Los Angeles Times wrote, "It needed no proving, but on the evidence of his '3 Women,' Robert Altman is identifiable anew as one of the most fluent, imaginative, individual and magical film-makers working here or anywhere else." Gene Siskel gave the film two-and-a-half out of four stars, saying he still didn't understand it after seeing it twice. "The ultimate meaning of 'Three Women' may be known only to writer-director Altman," Siskel wrote. "After all, it was his dream. I didn't find enough threads of sanity to keep me interested in the film's final sequences."

Home media
On home video, the film never had a VHS release, and Altman said the film negative was beginning to deteriorate until it was repaired and remastered. However, The Criterion Collection released the film on DVD in 2004, with a director's commentary. Criterion re-released the film on Blu-ray in 2011.

Kathleen Mannington Caffyn

Kathleen Mannington Caffyn, née Hunt (c. 1855 – 6 February 1926) was an Irish-Australian novelist.

Life
Kathleen was born in Tipperary, Ireland, daughter of William de Vere Hunt, and related to Aubrey de Vere, the poet. She was educated by English and German governesses and moved to London at about 21 years of age. She trained as a nurse and married in 1879 Stephen Mannington Caffyn, a medical practitioner (1851–1896), who was born at Salehurst, Sussex. She moved with him to Sydney in 1880.

In 1883 they went to Melbourne, where Dr Caffyn had suburban practices, and lived in Brighton until 1892, when they returned to London. Mrs Mannington Caffyn was a founder of the District Nursing Society in Victoria and served on its committee for around two years. Caffyn had a love of horses and kept up her interest in hunting and polo until her death in Turin, Italy on 6 February 1926. She was survived by a son.

Writings
Mrs Caffyn contributed a story of some 60 pages to Cooee: Tales of Australian Life by Australian Ladies (1891), and wrote a novel A Yellow Aster, which was published in London in 1894 under the pseudonym "Iota", but had been written in Australia, as the saga of a free-thinking, agnostic family. It had immediate success and was quickly followed by Children of Circumstance (1892) and some 15 other volumes in the 20 years that followed. These included A Quaker Grandmother (1896), Anne Mauleverer (1899), He for God Only (1903), and Patricia: a Mother (1903), which rank among her better novels and were popular in their time. All her novels except her first were written after her return to England. Her last novel was Merry Mirrilies (1916).

In Australia her husband contributed to The Bulletin in its early days, and published Miss Milne and I (1889), a novel which ran into two or three editions. This was followed by Poppy's Tears (1890). He also wrote a few medical pamphlets.

Reminiscence
Caffyn Place in the Canberra suburb of Garran is named in her honour.

East Caucasian tur

The East Caucasian tur (Capra cylindricornis), also known as the Daghestani tur, is a mountain-dwelling caprine living in the eastern half of the Greater Caucasus mountains, in Azerbaijan, Georgia, and European Russia. It inhabits rough mountainous terrain, where it eats mainly grasses and leaves. It is listed as near threatened on the IUCN Red List.

Description
East Caucasian turs are goat-like animals with large but narrow bodies and short legs, and show significant sexual dimorphism in overall size and horn development. Adult males stand about 105 cm at the shoulder, measure 190 cm in head-body length, and weigh around 140 kg. The equivalent figures for adult females are 85 cm for shoulder height, 138 cm for head-body length, and just 56 kg for weight. Males have slightly lyre-shaped horns which reach 70 to 90 cm in length, while in females they are typically only 20 to 22 cm long.

The summer coat is short and sandy-yellow, with dirty white underparts. Also, dark brown stripes occur along the front surface of the legs and on the upper surface of the tail. In the winter, the coats of females and juvenile males becomes slightly greyish in colour, but otherwise remain similar. However, the winter coats of adult males are a solid dark brown, without visible stripes on the legs. Males develop a beard with their winter coats in their second year, reaching the full length of about 12 cm by their fourth or fifth year. Compared with other goats, the beards of East Caucasian turs are relatively stiff, and project somewhat forwards, rather than drooping down. The beard is small or entirely absent in females, and in males in their summer coats.

Distribution and habitat
The species range is restricted to the Greater Caucasus Mountains between 800 and 4000 m above sea level, roughly extending from Mt. Shkhara (Georgia) in the west to Mt. Babadag (Azerbaijan) in the east. The western edge of the range of the East Caucasian tur remains unclear, as it overlaps with that of West Caucasian tur (Capra caucasica). Most of the species populations avoid human disturbance and occur in extremely rugged, open terrain around 3,000 m. In areas with no or little human disturbance, turs occur in gentler and much lower terrain.

Reproduction
Breeding occurs from late November to early January, with births taking place in May and June, after a gestation period of 160 to 165 days. Newborn turs weigh 3.4 to 4.1 kg; they are usually singletons, although about 3% of pregnancies result in twin births. Young turs are extremely agile, being able to scamper about steep slopes after only a day of life. They generally start sampling grasses after one month, but continue to suckle until about December. Growth is relatively slow, with females not reaching their full adult size for five years, and males at around 10 or 11 years of age. Females reach sexual maturity at two years, but, in the wild, usually do not breed until the age of four.

East Caucasian turs are able to cross-breed with West Caucasian turs and with domestic goats, producing fertile offspring, although this is not common in the wild.

Diet
During the warm months, feeding occurs at intervals throughout the late afternoon, night, and morning, with the hottest hours of the day being spent resting in sheltered places. In winter, herds may remain in open pastures throughout the day, alternately grazing and resting. Daily movements may cover 15 to 20 km. They eat almost all kinds of available vegetation, but prefer forbs in spring and summer, and grasses, trees, and shrubs in autumn and winter.

Their seasonal migration covers a vertical distance of 1500 to 2000 m, with an upward thrust in May and a retreat downwards in October. The adult males generally inhabit higher altitudes than females and their young, descending to join them in the breeding season. During the summer, the turs also make daily migrations, moving as much as 1000 m vertically between feeding meadows and night-time resting spots.

During this rut, vigorous competitions arise as males vie for mating rights. Older males are dominant over younger ones, which they drive away from females using threatening postures, rushing, and occasional clashes with their horns. Fights between equally sized males are fiercer, beginning with both animals rearing on their hind legs and butting each other, before vigorous horn-wrestling that often results in the combatants rolling down steep slopes until one submits and leaves the group. During the rut, males also mark their territory by debarking and scent-marking tree trunks and heavy branches.

Outside of the rutting season, females live in stable groups with an average of seven individuals, often including a few juvenile males. Older males live in larger, single-sex groups, with an average of 12 members, while some younger males travel in groups of two or three. These male groups break up around November, when the rut begins and mixed-sex groups become the norm, reforming again in January or February. In protected areas, the density of animals varies between 5 and 16 /km2.

Image choice
Given that Real Time is sort of a side-step in Evelyn's chronology (according to Gary Russell), is that the best image to use to illustrate Evelyn's article? Might it be better to use something from the cover of Doctor Who and the Pirates, Arrangements for War or Thicker than Water? (Evelyn's on the cover of The Sandman too, but it's so ugly I wouldn't bother.)

Shoshone pupfish

The Shoshone pupfish (Cyprinodon nevadensis shoshone) is a subspecies of Cyprinodon nevadensis from California in the United States. It is characterized by large scales and a "slab-sided," narrow, slender body, with the arch of the ventral contour much less pronounced than the dorsal. It also has fewer pelvic fin rays and scales than the other subspecies of C. nevadensis.

Distribution
Its entire range is at the Shoshone Springs. This is a small spring which feeds into the upper Amargosa River in the town of Shoshone, Inyo County, California. The town and the springs are both found within the Amargosa Valley and in the region referred to as the Amargosa Desert. The springs are 21 km north of Tecopa, California. It was considered extinct by the late 1960s, but was rediscovered in 1986 at the spring's outflow. It was rediscovered by F. R. Taylor, R. R. Miller (the original describer), J. W. Pedretti, and J. E. Deacon. This was documented in "Rediscovery of the Shoshone Pupfish Cyprinodon nevadensis shoshone (Cyprinodontidae), at Shoshone Springs, Inyo County, California". published in ''Bull. Southern California Acad. Sci.'' 87(2), 1988, pp 67–73. The rediscovery date was 31 July 1986 in which caudal ray count differed from the original description. Although rediscovered, this pupfish does not enjoy federal Endangered Species Status. It lives in one artificial pond with water supplied from the last available spring source at Shoshone Spring. It is designated as a species of Special Concern by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife.

Description
Pupfish, such as the Shoshone pupfish, exhibit many adaptions for life in extreme thermal and osmotic environments. Pupfish growth is rapid and sexual maturity is reached within four to six weeks. This short generation time enables pupfish to maintain small but viable populations. Among the subspecies, however, there are minor differences in generation times, with pupfish in habitats with widely fluctuating environmental conditions exhibiting the shortest.

Shoshone pupfish like other C. nevadensis subspecies had wide temperature tolerances (2 to 44 C); however, the preferred range is 24 to 30 C. Extreme temperatures affect egg production and viability, thus any alterations to their habitat that would result in temperature changes outside the range of their reproductive temperature optima are potentially deleterious. Eggs, however, become resistant to environmental stresses within hours of being laid.

Shoshone pupfish, like other pupfishes, feed primarily on blue-green cyanobacteria but also consume small invertebrates like chironomid larvae, ostracods, and copepods. They forage continuously from sunrise to sunset and become inactive at night. Their guts are extremely long and convoluted, an adaptation that enables them to digest cyanobacteria.

Talk:Károly Kerényi

Untitled
"...but - after the philosopher potentat Georg Lukács in 1948 condemned him as "the cart pusher of fascism", he was forced in emigration and became a citizen of Switzerland..." Is this Wikipedian neutrality? May we have some context for this quote? --Wetman 06:40, 30 September 2005 (UTC)

Yes, this is a fact, and facts are neutral. Source is Hungarian Wikipedia. For other sources, please ask DrSteller. Gubbubu 12:30, 30 September 2005 (UTC)

This resource says that, f.e.:

 * 1946 szeptemberében azonban rágalmaktól zsúfolt támadások jelentek meg ellene, s nemcsak demokratikus gondolkodását vonták kétségbe, hanem tudományos értékét is. Mikor 1947 végén hazatért, látta, hogy péntek esti óráinak megkísérelt felújítása nem talált visszhangra, s egyéb támadások is érték, ezért csalódottan és reményvesztetten visszatért Svájcba. 1948 nyarán Lukács György a Társadalmi Szemlében közzétett cikkében a fasizmus szekértolójaként illette, akinek nincs helye az új magyar szellemi életben. Később kiderült, hogy minderre azért volt szükség, mert az ideológiai megalkuvásra képtelen, a szókimondást erkölcsi kötelességnek érző természetű és széles körű nemzetközi tudományos tekintéllyel rendelkező Kerényit csak így tudták az országból eltávolítani, az egyetlen lehetséges megoldás, hogy emigrációba kényszerítették.

 * Perhaps Gubbubu would be generous enough to translate some and discuss it in the article, for the handful of Wikipedia readers whose Hungarian is a little rusty? I for one can see that it's Hungarian, but I can't tell what this accusation is about, don't you see? --Wetman 00:32, 1 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Sorry, but If you edit hungarian-related articles, you should learn at least minimal hungarian, otherwise you won't understand the sources. But the translation of the paragraph is that:
 * In september 1946 attacks full of defamations been published against him, debating not onéy his democratic thinking, but his scientific preparedness. So, when he saw he can't get space, returned frustrated to Switzerland. In the summer of 1948 György Lukács in an article published in Társadalmi Szemle celled him as the cart pusher of fascism, who must be thrown out of hungarian intellectual life. Later it is turned out, they need this because he (K.K.) was incapable of ideological expedience, the wide-known and recognized Kerényi could only been gagged this way. Gubbubu 17:11, 20 December 2005 (UTC) I would add a few modifications to this translations for others to distinct clearly: the Hungarian article says he returned (in this case Hungary) only to find he could not teach classes on his usual Friday night slot, and for other personal slenders he returned to Switzerland, it's more explaining where and why he could not get space (or to be more specific slot or spot). I would use later as it turned out it was not an acknowledged fact then, but is now. You left out that he felt obligated to be what's on his mind on his tongue as well, and wide known was exactly paraphrased as internationally reknowned and acknowledged. And gagged is a literal world he was intellectually silenced, and he was forced to emigrate. If you mention victims of totalitarian regimes it has to be noted and always, that in difference to the Nazis when someone was too known, not a member of their party and it was not during a war they expelled him/her from the country and stripped from citizenship contrary to extermination camps. And speaking of which since he was so outright, I would love to read more sources on his years in Switzerland as a Jewish scientist among people who really were in one cart with the Third Reich Shinichi1977 (talk) 21:09, 17 August 2010 (UTC)

So this wasn't "denazificatization" (communists during their reign in power for forty years called "nazi", "fascist" and "antisemitist" everyone - even Jews or communists like J. B. Tito or László Rajk - who appeared for them to be in their way. Most of "nazis" they forced to emigrate or imrpisoned, like Béla Hamvas (what's more, Albert Wass, what's a horros of horrors, Pál Prónay) been rehabilited after the system change in 1989. these men weren't nazis (or, like Rajk, were even not anti-communists), they were only mavericks.) Gubbubu 17:11, 20 December 2005 (UTC) See for ex.  in the Central Library, after the war, the SzEB started to collecting and deporting to the SU the "fascist" and "anti-demoxratic" books. "Fascist" were the all poetries of Mécs László (priest-poet, he never was fascist or anything else, only christian), but later the Ministry of Culture, what gave the task of sorting from the SzEB, sorted out the books of the following authors, too (as "antidemocratic" and "harmless for socialism and democratic thinking"):
 * Fallada, Galsworthy, Kästner, Maugham, Steinbeck, H. G. Wells, Stefan Zweig stb., Balzac, Flaubert, and Hölderin ...

denacificatization
So, "during the rigorous denazification of Hungary's educated class in 1948" - what's this? Gubbubu 16:54, 20 December 2005 (UTC)

WWDB

WWDB (860 AM) is a commercial radio station licensed to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, with its studios and offices in the "555 Building" on City Avenue in Bala Cynwyd, Pennsylvania. It is owned by the Beasley Broadcast Group and broadcasts mostly paid brokered programming. Shows on health, money, gardening, home repair, real estate, religion and politics are found on the schedule. Some programs are broadcast in Hungarian, Ukrainian, Yiddish, Italian and other languages. Hosts pay for their time on the air and may advertise their services or products during their programs.

WWDB is a daytimer radio station. Because AM 860 is a clear channel frequency reserved for Class A CJBC Toronto, WWDB must go off the air at sunset to avoid interference. It is powered at 10,000 watts, using a directional antenna. The transmitter is off Foundry Road in East Norriton Township. WWDB's tower site is also used by 950 WKDN for its nighttime operations.

History
On December 6, 1926, the station signed on as WFKD. It became WTEL in 1930. It began operating on the 860 frequency in the late 1950s. Before that, it had shared time on AM 1340 with WHAT. Through most of the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s, WTEL was best known as a foreign language broadcaster, with programs in several languages. (The WTEL call sign is now used on AM 610.)

In October 1998, the call letters changed to WWDB. The station began airing a talk format as a complement to sister station to WWDB-FM. Some of the FM station's older personalities were moved to the AM station in an attempt to increase the FM's appeal in younger demographics without alienating older listeners.

The strategy was not successful, and by February 2000, the WTEL call sign had returned, and the station switched to urban gospel music. The gospel format lasted only until November 2000, when the call letters were changed back to WWDB and switched to business talk. Business talk, sometimes augmented with general-interest talk from syndicated personalities such as Don Imus and Mancow Muller, was the station's format until the end of the broadcast day on August 1, 2010.

ESPN Deportes Radio took over the schedule on the next day. The Spanish-language sports programming was dropped after a year, and on June 13, 2011, WWDB began carrying a schedule of brokered programming, some previously heard on WNWR.

The WWDB call letters, which stand for the names of former owners "William and Dolly Banks", were first used in Philadelphia at 96.5 on the FM band in the late 1960s. The station had previously been WHAT-FM. It operated with a jazz format that did not change when the call letters did. In the early 1970s, WWDB-FM tried an adult contemporary format during some hours, then reverted to jazz full-time, then adopted a talk format in 1975. The talk format was one of the first successful ones on the FM band in the United States, lasting until November 2000. Until WWDB-FM's debut, almost all American talk stations were found on AM radio.

Volucella pellucens

Volucella pellucens, the pellucid fly, is a hoverfly.

Distribution and habitat
This species occurs in much of Europe, and across the Palearctic to Japan. The adult V. pellucens is usually found in woodlands and wooded hedgerows, but will enter gardens.

Description
Volucella pellucens is about 13–17 mm in length, with a wing length about 10–15.5 mm.

This hoverfly has a broad, mainly black body, but the front part of the abdomen has a broad, yellow band, giving it the appearance of a bee or wasp. The two wings are transparent, as with most flies, but the leading edge is amber, with a brown patch on each wing.

The mimicry of bees or wasps in shape and colouration is shown by other hoverflies, which is thought to protect against falling prey to birds and other insectivores that avoid eating true wasps because of their stings. However, the difference between hoverflies and wasps or bees is hoverflies have two wings, and the Hymenoptera species have four.

Biology
Adults live on nectar and pollen, as with most hoverflies, and visits a large range of flowers from May to October,  showing a distinct preference for white flowers, such as Sambucus, Cornus, Ligustrum, Rubus idaeus, and bramble and Apiaceae, but they also feed on Asteraceae, Valeriana officinalis, Succisa pratensis, Chamerion angustifolium, and Urtica dioica. It typically flies at head height.

The female enters the underground paper nests of the common wasp, Vespula vulgaris, or the German wasp, V. germanica, and lays her eggs. Despite the conspicuous nature of the intruder, the hosts do not appear to register her presence as she makes her way into the otherwise well-guarded nest entrance. The V. pellucens larvae then feed on the hosts' young and dead adults.

When the eggs hatch, the larvae drop to the bottom of the nest chamber, where they feed as scavengers on debris. This may include dead wasp grubs and adults, remains of food brought into the nest by the wasps, and other insects living there. Mature larvae are sometimes on the combs and have been recorded feeding on dead or moribund wasp larvae and pupae that were left in the combs when the nest was abandoned by the wasps in the autumn. Fully grown larvae leave the nest and pupate in the soil below. If the host nest is in the roof or walls of a house, then the larvae may end up crawling about in the dwelling space.

Adult hoverflies emerge the following year from about mid-May to June.

What vandalism is, and is not
Based on your comments in the discussion you initiated at Talk:War crimes in the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, may I suggest you re-read the page on WP:Vandalism, because I think you're under some misconceptions about what it is and is not. Here's a Gedankenexperiment for you:

A Russian soldier's grandfather living in Magnitogorsk consumes only official Russian press and TV news, and vigorously supports the governmental line about the war. He is active at Wikipedia (having worked for a few years as an attaché at the Washington embassy in the late 50s under Khrushchev), and is going around to all the articles related to the Ukraine war, pulling out numerous western sources because they are specifically labeled "fakes" in the Russian media, and substituting propaganda from Russian news, and other friendly sources, completely tilting the articles from their former neutral state, to nothing but a totally biased, one-sided whitewash, and pure, pro-Russian account of the war, which he earnestly believes to be exactly what is happening in Ukraine after he has removed all the "pro-western fake news". After all, it's all he hears, and he wants everyone to know the truth. Is he a vandal?

Answer: No. That does not fit the definition of a vandal. Here's an excerpt from WP:Vandalism:

"On Wikipedia, vandalism has a very specific meaning: editing (or other behavior), which is to create a free encyclopedia."

Did you know, for example, that "Even if misguided, willfully against consensus, or disruptive, any good faith effort to improve the encyclopedia is vandalism." As long as an editor is attempting to improve Wikipedia in good faith, "their edits are not vandalism, they violate some core policy of Wikipedia."

In several of your edits at the Talk:War crimes in the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, you ascribe "vandalism" to an editor's actions at the article: These four edits constitute repeated accusations of vandalism against another editor, at the wrong venue, and without supporting evidence. Whatever you think of the quality of their content, this editor is clearly acting to improve the article, and the encyclopedia. You may entirely disagree with the article content this editor wishes to include in the article, which is fine; methods of dispute resolution exist to help resolve content disputes, and the article Talk page is the right place to talk that out. But your accusations of vandalism are doubly wrong there: first, because they don't belong on an article talk page at all (wrong venue; use the User talk page for that), and secondly, because of your mistaken idea of what constitutes vandalism at Wikipedia.
 * 21:03, 9 April: in your TP comment, you said that they are "currently heavily vandalising the article", and "such vandals should not be allowed to game the system".
 * 21:11, 9 April: in your edit summary: "an editor vandalising articles is by definition a vandal"
 * 06:22, 10 April: in your edit summary: "how surprising that editors with just 6 edits are coming to excuse [<name of the other editor>]'s vandalisms"
 * 07:26, 10 April: in your edit summary: "continued vandalism through fake sourcing and source misrepresentation"

If upon reflection, you now believe the other editor's actions do not constitute vandalism, you could WP:REDACT your comments by striking them out, like this (unfortunately edit summary text cannot be changed). If you still believe you have identified vandalism at the article, then you are free to raise it in a neutral manner at the editor's user talk page, incorporating WP:DIFFs as evidence to support your allegations. However, please refrain from making any further comments about other editors' motivations or editing behavior on an article Talk page, and most especially, please refrain from accusations of vandalism at the article Talk page. A pattern of unfounded accusations may be seen as WP:DISRUPTIVE, or a personal attack. Thanks, Mathglot (talk) 09:03, 10 April 2022 (UTC)

He's been here since 2005, he knows what vandalism is and what it isn't. He's also on civility parole and subject to 1RR (these restrictions have never been lifted) which were imposed as conditions of removing his indefinite ban.  Volunteer Marek  09:07, 10 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Yes, I understand what you're saying. I've not previously interacted with Anonimu, afaicr, and I may have more influence, I hope, treading lightly. But these actions are not promising, and WP:AE may be an option. I hope they see the light and change course before that becomes necessary. Mathglot (talk) 09:28, 10 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Hi Mathglot, Volunteer Marek is not an old man in Russia who only has access to state propaganda. His edits shows he has access to a wide selection of sources, including some which are not generally accessible to the rest of editors due to paywalls. The problem is not that he doesn't get the info, the problem is that he has all the info he needs and still insist in in promoting his POV by selectively copying info from the sources. Consider a RS A printing "X is very dumb, says Y", with Y being involved in real life dispute with X. Volunteer Marek takes this info and has in on Wikipedia "X is obviously dumb ".
 * This behaviour perfectly fits the second paragraph of WP:VANDALISM

 * Since he is an editor with tens of thousands of edits, he has been here from 2005 and was involved in numerous Arbitration and Administrative reports, we are safe to assume that he is well aware of policy. This prevents me from assuming good faith and consider he is just not accustomed to the principles of WP:V and WP:NPOV. The fact that he occasionally fixes some of the most obvious vandalism he has made (such as recently when he backed down that a photo of a body in Mariupol showed a massacre in Bucha) shows that he is fully aware of his actions and has full editing capacity. His other actions however indicate he's trying to promote a certain POV using more subtle forms of vandalism, forms which are still covered by the quote above.
 * Per WP:SPADE calling an editor vandalising articles a vandal is not a personal attack. Supporting evidence was provided, with diffs, however you unfortunately decide to hide them by collapsing part of the section.Anonimu (talk) 06:50, 11 April 2022 (UTC)
 * I'm not interested in debating what some other user did or didn't do. I'm convinced your interpretation of vandalism is incorrect, leading you into questionable activity at article talk pages; you're convinced it's accurate. So, we disagree about that. That's fine. You may bring up complaints about user behavior at a user Talk page or another venue that's amenable to reports of user behavior, if you believe administrator action is needed to protect the encyclopedia from damage. But whatever you decide to do on that count, please keep comments about user behavior off article talk pages, as that's not what they are for, and I think you know that. For your own benefit, just a caution about one thing though: you appealed to WP:SPADE as a way of legitimizing accusations of vandalism. However, SPADE will not protect you if your behavior is called into question, as WP:NPA is policy, and SPADE is merely an essay. So you might want to rethink that approach, or at least, don't use it if an admin comes calling, because they'll know there's no teeth to it. Hope this helps, Mathglot (talk) 07:21, 11 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Talk pages "is to provide space for editors to discuss changes to its associated article", and fixing vandalism is exactly that, thus a legitimate topic of discussion. I wasn't discussing Volunteer Marek general behavior or his edits elsewhere, I was discussing specifically removal of sourced content, misrepresentation of sources and false captioning of images, all of which address the content of the article. It's not my fault that all these "deliberate attempts to damage Wikipedia" were associated with one specific user.07:22, 11 April 2022 (UTC)

Edit warring
Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See the bold, revert, discuss cycle for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

You are also subject to a 1RR restriction.  Volunteer Marek  21:45, 11 April 2022 (UTC)

Notice that you are now subject to an arbitration enforcement topic ban

 * I just closed your appeal. There was a consensus to endorse the topic ban and reject your appeal. You may appeal again at any time, but a successful appeal will probably only be after 6 months, or more, of editing elsewhere -- Guerillero  Parlez Moi 20:51, 14 April 2022 (UTC)

Amistad gambusia

The Amistad gambusia (Gambusia amistadensis) is an extinct species of small fish known only from a single locality, the large vegetated Goodenough Spring in Val Verde County, Texas. It apparently was driven to extinction in the wild when its habitat was submerged to a depth of about 70 feet by the construction of the Amistad Reservoir in 1968. The two captive populations, at the University of Texas System and the Dexter National Fish Hatchery in New Mexico, later failed through hybridization with the related mosquitofish and predation. The species has been classified as extinct by the United States Fish and Wildlife Service since 1987, and by the IUCN since 2013.

Talk:Nick Rahall

Re-Worked the "Tenure" Section
Previously many of Rahall's issue positions and legislative accomplishments had been crammed together under the "tenure" section. I have renamed the section "Issues" (a much more appropriate name for the info that is there) and broken each issue out by section, i also added a few in an earlier edit. i did not remove/add any information when doing this.

i think the section is much more manageable now and easier to find info on an issue as it relates to his position.

More Speculation and Opinion than Facts
In the second paragraph of this article, it is speculated that Congressman Rahall dropped out of George Washington University purely because of the ending of the draft but no source is given to confirm if that is a fact or pure coincidence.

Also, it is speculated in the second paragraph of this article that just because Congressman Rahall worked under Senator Byrd, that he is "racist", but of course just as before, there is no source to verify this statement. Working under Senator Byrd is not enough evidence to claim that Rahall shares his views in itself. On that same note, just because Rahall is of Lebanese decent does not mean that is the motivation behind is voting record on the Middle East. All of these above statements would be fine if there were sources to back them up.

I feel these statements should be removed from this "article" if sources cannot be cited to support these claims...if there are no sources to support these claims, then it is apparent that this is not an article, but instead it's someone's opinion piece.

--Caponer 06:47, 30 September 2005 (UTC)

I agree with Caponer on this. I am going to remove the comment on him agreeing with Byrd's views on race, since there is no evidence that he is racist. Most of the other stuff added recently is mere speculation and should also be tossed. Youngamerican 16:02, 13 October 2005 (UTC)
 * I've made adjustments to the article to remove POV statements as much as possible. Would still like to see some sources, however. Youngamerican 16:12, 13 October 2005 (UTC)

There is way too much that is purposely written in a negative way, irrelevant, or made up. -Ernie

Nick Rahall doesn't really know what is happening in the Middle East. He should get a clue: Israel was attacked and is responding to aggression. Its escaped his notice Israel is still under attack. Its not Israel's responsibility to let Hezbollah go unharmed; its the job of the Lebanese to dismantle the state within a state that keeps them from having a fully normal life. Hezbollah must be destroyed for there to be peace. At the moment, I think the humane solution would be for Israel's Air Force to turn Hezbollahland into good-sized parking lots. —Preceding unsigned comment added by SoCalJustice (talk • contribs)
 * I was a little surprised to see that his positions in the Middle East were only briefly mentioned. I know that he is know to have a pretty big interest there. In this article, for instance, he says: "Israel can’t continue to occupy, humiliate and destroy the dreams and spirits of the Palestinian people and continue to call itself a democratic state." 100 red balloons (talk) 21:09, 16 March 2012 (UTC)

Was just reading a news article which states Rahall is a mason and knights templar. If true it ought to be relevent to this page. http://news.yahoo.com/s/politico/20090928/pl_politico/27639

Lebanese Descent
I find it somewhat odd that the second line of his "early life" section is that he is of Lebanese descent. If he was born in the United States (he was) to parents born in the United States (not sure), then it seems extraneous. We don't include that various public figures are of Irish, or English, or German descent at the top of their bios. This particularly caught my notice because attack ads have been run against Rahall recently based on his ethnicity. Arbor832466 (talk) 23:23, 17 October 2010 (UTC)

Rahall as Arab American
Recent edits have added excessive, unsourced text emphasizing Rahall's ethnic background. I am going to revert. This whole page needs a massive overhaul and ought to be referred to the bio page for more intensive edits. Hammerpleasedonthurtem (talk) 04:16, 2 October 2014 (UTC)

 * Untrue. They are both clearly accurate.  And sourced. To RSs. In the text in the body of the article.  Where they should be sourced.  It is a significant part of his notability, noted in all manner of RSs on him, such as reflected in the article and here and here, and properly therefore reflected in the lede.  Please don't again delete appropriate RS-supported material. I understand that you are new, and may have your personal point of view, but we follow the RSs and wikipedia guidelines. --Epeefleche (talk) 05:38, 2 October 2014 (UTC)

 * I understand that you are experienced, but what significance does links to two Google searches demonstrate about the reliability or notability of your sources? You might refamiliarize yourself with WP:BLP, specifically the points about how these biographies are to be edited conservatively. At present, this article is the epitome of a WP:COAT with the ostensible aim of libeling Rahall and making statements about the Arab-Israeli conflict. There is absolutely no reason to mention his position on Israel in the lede any more than there is to describe his position on mining or TARP, for example. Hammerpleasedonthurtem (talk) 14:33, 2 October 2014 (UTC)
 * The refs supplied evidence sufficiently the fact that it is an important aspect of his career, covered in the RSs, and therefore appropriate for the lede. The additional google searches reflect amply the broad coverage by many RSs -- in addition to the refs supplied -- of the same.  He is a public figure; a politician taking public positions. You do not understand what libel is if you think that reflecting his public positions on facts from his biography -- all as amply covered by RSs -- is "libel".  It's not even close.   --Epeefleche (talk) 17:42, 2 October 2014 (UTC)
 * You linked to a Google search between the terms "Nick","Rahall", and "muslim". What are the 25,000 search results intended to confirm? That the internet has abundant misinformation? Does this referencing "RS" work for you on other talk pages? Hammerpleasedonthurtem (talk) 20:39, 2 October 2014 (UTC)

Came here to take a look from post at WP:BLP/N. I have made a few edits to conform the article to our BLP policies to the best of my ability. See edit summaries for details. Happy editing! -  Cwobeel   (talk)  15:51, 2 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Hi. Thanks for your efforts.  One point -- you deleted from the lede the fact -- appropriately referenced in the text to an RS -- that he is considered one of the most "endangered" House Democrats by the House Democratic campaign committee. Your edit summary stated: "don't needed either in the lede". The question of course is not whether it is needed in the lede, but whether it is appropriate. The fact is certainly an important aspect of an article on him, and as such appropriate per wp:lede. It relates to the race he is currently in.  It is a position taken by his own party's campaign committee. It is RS-supported. It distinguishes him significantly from other House members. It provides important context. I don't see any reason for its deletion. Epeefleche (talk) 17:42, 2 October 2014 (UTC)
 * What "context" does it provide that is lede worthy? He was labeled endangered in other elections, so 2014 is not any different. It does not belong in the lede. Also I note that your recent edit did not restore that point, but reverted to the far more irrelevant and less lede-worthy text that "He was the only member of the House to oppose the 1993 resolution for an end to the Arab boycott of Israel." Hammerpleasedonthurtem (talk) 20:48, 2 October 2014 (UTC)

 * Hammer -- your assertions of "libel" above are simply baseless. Please stop deleting material from this article, pointing to the conversation here -- where you encourage deletion based on such baseless accusations.

Also, as was explained to you already, material that is reflected in the text is properly reflected in the lede. Stop removing it on the basis that it is already stated in the text below.

Also, as already indicated to you, the refs in the text are sufficient -- they need not be repeated in the lede.

Finally, please stop making deletions of this ilk unless you have consensus for the deletions, as reflecting in the views of editors expressed in this ongoing conversation, and their views as reflected in edit summary comments to revisions to the article.

If you read the articles, he was one of very few Members that the Democrats considered endangered. And if you google it, you will see that in addition to the supplied refs, this has received ample RS attention. That's what makes it an important aspect of an article on him. And that's what makes it appropriate for the lede. The same is true of the fact that he was the only member of the House to oppose the 1993 resolution for an end to the Arab boycott of Israel - also amply covered by RSs, and also an important distinguishing characteristic from most other House members. Epeefleche (talk) 21:04, 2 October 2014 (UTC)

 * Would you please respond to the pertinent points, rather than writing comments that are largely irrelevant to the discussion at hand?

 * Also, as was explained to you already, material that is reflected in the text is properly reflected in the lede. Stop removing it on the basis that it is already stated in the text below.

 * No, the question is why "He was the only member of the House to oppose the 1993 resolution for an end to the Arab boycott of Israel" belongs in the lede. Yes, it is cited and referenced in the text below. Please provide a justification for why it belongs in the lede, second paragraph of the biography.

 * Also, as already indicated to you, the refs in the text are sufficient -- they need not be repeated in the lede.

 * No one has questioned the references. The lede is in question, and why there is WP:UNDUE and WP:NPOV throughout the article.

 * Finally, please stop making deletions of this ilk unless you have consensus for the deletions, as reflecting in the views of editors expressed in this ongoing conversation, and their views as reflected in edit summary comments to revisions to the article.

 * What Wikipedian, besides you, agrees with the reversion you have made. I hope others will weigh in on this. I find it very difficult to believe that there is any support, let alone consensus, for such a flagrant violation of WP:BLP.

 * If you read the articles, he was one of very few Members that the Democrats considered endangered. And if you google it, you will see that in addition to the supplied refs, this has received ample RS attention. That's what makes it an important aspect of an article on him.  And that's what makes it appropriate for the lede.

 * What are you telling me to Google? Why would the Google search "Nick", "Rahall", and "Muslim", as you have suggested, have any relevance at all? "Nick", "Rahall", and "Jewish" returns even more results. Are you suggesting that we should include his Jewish heritage in the lede?

 * The fact of the matter is that his ethnicity and religion (which is Christian) belongs nowhere near the lede. Hammerpleasedonthurtem (talk) 03:39, 3 October 2014 (UTC

 * While the lede has improved in the current version, the issue has not been fully addressed. The second paragraph, fifth sentence, reads "Rahall is of Lebanese descent, one of five Arab American lawmakers on Capitol Hill." None of the others - Darrell Issa, Charles Boustany, Justin Amash, Richard Hanna - mention that they are one of the five lawmakers and their ethnicity is not mentioned anywhere near the first paragraph. The point that he is one of five Arab-American lawmakers is questionable for inclusion in the article at all (it now appears twice) and there is no reason to mention that he is of Lebanese descent in the lede. Are there objections to this edit? Hammerpleasedonthurtem (talk) 23:48, 4 October 2014 (UTC)
 * He is the most senior of them. This was raised at BLPN, and though a fair number of editors commented, none of them supported removal. Seems appropriate. Epeefleche (talk) 07:09, 6 October 2014 (UTC)
 * I do not see any editors directly responding to this point at BLPN. It does not seem appropriate in the lede, and entirely inappropriate to have the point mentioned twice in the article. In addition to the points above, other Congressmen who have seniority for their group such as John Conyers, who is the most senior black Congressmen, do not have it mentioned in the lede. Hammerpleasedonthurtem (talk) 01:19, 7 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Eh. While it's not outright improper, since ethnicity is at least a part of any figure's overall bio, I'm not sure if discussion in the lede is particularly appropriate. If he was the first, perhaps, or the only one, but being the first elected of just the specific group that is currently in congress is perhaps not significant enough to be one of the most important facts we highlight in the lede.--Yaksar (let's chat) 20:27, 8 October 2014 (UTC)

Vote on Arab Boycott of Israel
The fact that Rahall was the only one of 435 members of the House to vote against the Arab boycott of Israel seems to me to be worthy of mention in the lede to his bio. What's the rationale for exclusion?CFredkin (talk) 05:07, 3 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Personally, I only removed the line from the lead because there was, contrary to what was claimed, clearly no consensus reached to accept the addition. An editor added the information into the lede -- perfectly acceptable. It was then removed by another editor -- again, perfectly acceptable per the principles of WP:BRD. The original editor reverted the revert, after which a third party came in and removed it again. Then a fourth party (you, I believe) re-added the information in, at which point a fifth editor, an IP, again removed it. After all this back and forth the original editor then re-added the line. It's abundantly clear that there is not yet a consensus on its inclusion, and it should be talked out here first, as you are doing.--Yaksar (let's chat) 05:29, 3 October 2014 (UTC)
 * That being said, I've now actually taken the time to look at the situation, and I would agree with the editors who argue against its inclusion in the lede. This is a politician with a over 3 decades in the house -- it makes little sense to emphasize one vote above all other political experience. The way this article is currently written, and the state it is being pushed into, gives the impression that the most notable achievements and actions of this congressman concern Israel and Arab issues. In truth, however, I'm pretty sure he's most associated with environmental and natural resources issues. This is logical, considering the importance of coal in West Virginia, and is supported by the fact that his time as a committee chair was on the Natural Resources committee, and a look through his notable sponsored bills seems to emphasize EPA and resource issues. Including this statement as the one congressional action worth mentioning in the lede is both misleading and unfortunately smells of POV pushing associated with the upcoming election. --Yaksar (let's chat) 05:44, 3 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Furthermore, the significant coverage of the subject in reliable sources makes it clear that this factoid is in no way one of the most notable or significant parts of his career. This is not Jeanette Rankin casting the sole vote against WWII. It's not mentioned in the Politico overview of the current race, or on the NRCC's page against him, or in the NY Times profile of him. But, considering that it is evidently one of the most important parts of a 37 year career that you feel should be highlighted in the lede, it's quite odd that the only sources that seem to discuss it at all in the past year, hell the past 5 years, are hyperpartisan blogs or other heavily POV sources. Is it a sourced vote with an interesting element perfectly reasonable for inclusion in the article? Sure. Is it arguably one of the most significant political actions of a multi decade political career, as evidenced by enduring coverage in reliable sources? Absolutely not.--Yaksar (let's chat) 09:09, 3 October 2014 (UTC)
 * What is the rationale for inclusion? I have not researched Rahall's voting record, but is this the only measure on which he was the lone dissenter? If there are other votes where he was the only opponent, why wouldn't these be mentioned here, too? I would be interested in seeing other pages of other Congressmen who have individual votes mentioned in the lede. It would be one thing if he were the namesake for the resolution. Or if he'd proposed the resolution. But he voted on it. Once. Out of hundreds of votes, over a career that is more than three decades. This barely merits inclusion in the article and certainly not the lede. Hammerpleasedonthurtem (talk) 05:48, 3 October 2014 (UTC)

 * I agree with CFredkin and IP 70 and wp:lede. Further background on why the deletion -- from the form it was in when the discussion started -- absent consensus to delete it is here. If Yak wants to add a sentence on some other vote where Rahall was the only member voting against the entire rest of the House, he should add it.  If it exists.  Or if he has some other lede-notable material.  But it smells of POV-pushing to delete from the lede such an RS-covered 1-against-400 vote from the lede.  Yak -- in accord with wp:lede, add in similarly notable information; please. Epeefleche (talk) 08:52, 3 October 2014 (UTC)
 * I can't tell if you're being willfully ignorant or if you are actually just unable to such a simple concept. The sentence in question was not in the article 2 days ago. When you added it in, it was removed, not once, not twice, but by 4 separate editors. You're the one that has to seek consensus for its inclusion, as CFredkin is doing here, not the other way around. If you put it back right now, you are not restoring a consensus, you are going further into edit warring.--Yaksar (let's chat) 08:59, 3 October 2014 (UTC)
 * The article included the sentence in question in the lede. This was the state of the article when Hammer started a discussion at the BLPN. Given that the noticeboard discussion had been kicked off, the sentence should not be deleted (and should not have been deleted) absent consensus to delete it. Which has not arisen.
 * CFredkin and IP 70 and I all agree that it is appropriate under wp:lede.
 * You keep on counting IP 70 as a deleter -- but you know (because we've discussed it at length) that after discussion he agreed with CFredkin, and me. So it's quite curious that you again count him on the other side.
 * And you, of course, reverted my deletion of IP 70 (the last editor to delete it, before my revert). On the basis that I wasn't discussing the matter with him.  Which, on your talkpage, I showed to be false.  Not only was I discussing it with him.  But he understood, having been pointed to wp:lede, that inclusion was correct.  So the basis of your revert of me was flawed - completely.
 * There is one other editor who asked for deletion - the nom of the discussion. But he wants it deleted also based on the same misunderstanding that IP 70 had (people have to read wp:lede).  And on the wild baseless assertion that it is libel (seriously? mention of a vote in Congress is libel?). So I see (tell me who I'm missing) three editors think it belongs, you deleted it on a completely wrong misapprehension that I was not discussing it and unclear that I was reverting someone who now agrees with me, and the nom is seeking deletion on the basis that to report a congressman's vote constitutes libel.
 * And oh -- you are seeking to delete it, even though it was included when discussion started, edit warring against the majority (slim), without consensus for your change. Epeefleche (talk) 09:20, 3 October 2014 (UTC)

Carouselambra

"Carouselambra" is the fifth song on Led Zeppelin's 1979 album In Through the Out Door. The title refers to the first section of the song that has similarities to carousel music. At more than 10 minutes in length, the song is the second-longest the band recorded in the studio. John Paul Jones' synthesizers dominate the song, with Jimmy Page's guitar playing a supporting role.

Composition and recording
With its early working title of "The Epic", "Carouselambra" was conceived during the band's rehearsals at Clearwell Castle in May 1978. The song itself is split in three sections. The first section is a fast-paced showcase of Jones on synthesizer (he overdubbed bass guitar or already recorded it as part of the backing track), with Robert Plant's vocals mixed down slightly underneath Jones, the drums of John Bonham and Page's guitar chord progression. The second section is much slower in pace, highlighting Page's use of the Gibson EDS-1275 double-necked guitar, the only time he used that instrument on a Led Zeppelin studio song, while Plant sings some reflective lyrics. The final section returns to an up-tempo beat, with all four band members performing in unison. Page's deep, droning guitar sound was produced with a Gizmotron, a device that creates infinite sustain, unusual harmonics, and allows the guitar to sound like a string section. A Roland GR-500 guitar synthesizer was also used on this track.

Reception
In a contemporary review for In Through the Out Door, Charles M. Young of Rolling Stone described "Carouselambra" as having "an extremely lame keyboard riff" and said the song was too long, clocking in at "an absurd 10:28". Young also called the song extremely repetitive, and while "repetition to weave a hypnotic effect has always been part of the Zeppelin sound, what they are repeating here is not worth the effort."

In a retrospective review of In Through the Out Door (Deluxe Edition), Andrew Doscas of PopMatters gave "Carouselambra" a negative review, calling the song something you would hear from either Styx or Genesis and not Zeppelin. Doscas found Plant "mumbling inaudible inanities for about 60% of the song." While Doscas found the song's synthesizers catchy, he found that Zeppelin fans will find it hard not to skip over "Carouselambra" after the four minute mark "in favor of the final two tracks." On the Deluxe Edition, Doscas found Plant's vocals on the "Carouselambra" rough mix (titled "The Epic") much more clear than those of the original version.

Live renditions
"Carouselambra" was never played live by the band at List of Led Zeppelin concert tours. The song was reputedly discussed for inclusion in the setlist for the planned autumn 1980 tour of North America, which was ultimately canceled after Bonham's sudden death during rehearsals. During the 1995–1996 Page and Plant tour, Plant would often sing the middle verse of the song when he and Page performed "In the Evening".

The Epic
A rough mix of the song with fewer overdubs was re-released in 2015 on In Through the Out Door (Deluxe Edition), with the title "The Epic".

Personnel
According to Jean-Michel Guesdon and Philippe Margotin:

 * Robert Plant – vocals
 * Jimmy Page – electric guitars
 * John Paul Jones – bass, synthesizers
 * John Bonham – drums, percussion (?)

Troilus of Elis

Troilus of Elis was an ancient Greek athlete from Elis who participated at the ancient Olympic Games. He gained controversy by being a referee who won two equestrian events at the 372 BC games. After that a law banned referees from competing. His story has at times been used to show the ancient games had a "win at any cost" mindset quite different from the modern Olympic ideal.
