KWVE-FM

KWVE-FM (107.9 MHz) is a commercial radio station licensed to San Clemente, California, and broadcasting to Orange County, the Inland Empire and Northern San Diego County. It airs a Christian talk and teaching radio format, known as "K-Wave". The station is owned by Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa, with its studios in the church-owned KWAVE Building on West MacArthur Boulevard in Santa Ana.

KWVE-FM is a Class B FM station with an effective radiated power (ERP) of 530 watts. The transmitter is atop Santiago Peak in Rancho Santa Margarita. KWVE is simulcast on KWVE (1110 AM) within the Greater Los Angeles area; most KWVE programming is also heard on KSDW (88.9 FM) in Temecula.

Talk and Teaching
KWVE-FM airs talk and teaching programs, some hosted by Calvary Chapel pastors, some from national religious leaders. Hosts include Jim Daly, Rick Warren, David Jeremiah, Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth, Greg Laurie, Alistair Begg, J. Vernon McGee, Joni Eareckson Tada, James Dobson and Chuck Swindoll. Two hours of Christian-oriented children's programming airs on Saturday mornings. Praise and worship music, which once had been part of KWVE's format, is now found on a separate channel on the station's website. While hosts may ask for donations to their non-profit ministries, and Calvary Chapel is also non-profit, KWVE-FM is a commercial radio station, airing advertisements between shows.

The K-Wave Radio Network
K-Wave operates several other feeds in the Southwestern United States.

 * KWVE (1110 AM) in Pasadena (Greater Los Angeles)
 * KSDW (88.9 FM) in Temecula (Northern San Diego County)
 * K245AI (96.9 FM) in San Pasqual, California (Central San Diego County)

Together they create at least secondary coverage to almost all of Southern California, from San Diego to Riverside and San Bernardino counties.

The church acquired several of these stations on August 11, 2011. They were previously owned and programmed by other ministries affiliated with the Calvary Chapel fellowship of churches.

Calvary Chapel entered an agreement with The Walt Disney Company to acquire KRDC in June 2023. The sale closed on September 8 of that year, and the AM signal switched to a simulcast of KWVE-FM. The AM signal gives KWVE enhanced coverage in the northern and western areas of the Los Angeles area, including Los Angeles proper, and as far north as Ventura County, where the main signal on 107.9 FM is weak. An application to change the call sign of the AM station to KWVE was granted on September 12.

MOR and beautiful music
The El Camino Broadcasting Corporation received a construction permit to build a new FM station at 107.9 MHz. The station signed on the air on November 16, 1971, as KAPX, airing a middle of the road format.

Radio Apex bought KAPX in November 1977 and changed its call sign to KWVE, becoming a beautiful music station known as K-Wave. It played quarter-hour sweeps of mostly instrumental music with some soft vocals. By the early 1980s, KWVE was a commercial adult contemporary music station. It was getting poor ratings, except in the evening drive slot when it played cutting-edge punk rock and new wave music which pulled high Arbitron numbers.

Christian radio
In 1982, KWVE sold the 7 p.m. to midnight timeslot to Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa. The church also bought time on KWVE on Sundays from 5 a.m. to noon. In 1984, the station fired most of its disc jockeys and went to automated music programming. In 1985, Calvary Chapel bought the station. The Calvary offer beat two competing bidders because it was an all-cash offer.

The church took over on April 15, 1985. Calvary Chapel expanded the Christian programming to its current 24-hour format while retaining the KWVE call sign and K-Wave brand. KWVE-FM advertises itself as "The Wave of Living Water", in reference to its wave-themed moniker and to the New Testament phrase "living water", a term for salvation through Jesus Christ.

KWVE call letters
For most of its existence, the station's call sign was simply KWVE, without the FM suffix. That changed in 2009 when Calvary Chapel purchased a defunct Christian AM radio station, KGDP in Oildale, California, and renamed it KWVE (now KGSV), simulcasting the FM signal into the Bakersfield radio market. As a result, the original KWVE was legally renamed KWVE-FM.

KWVE-FM is sometimes confused with a similarly named secular smooth adult contemporary radio station in Los Angeles, KTWV 94.7 FM. That station is known as "94.7 The Wave" and owned by Audacy. Then-owner Metromedia converted rock-formatted KMET to KTWV and "The Wave" on February 14, 1987, nearly two years after the launch of KWVE-FM's current Christian format. Both stations emphasize their FM frequencies to distinguish themselves from each other. KWVE-FM keeps on hand in its broadcast booth KTWV's request line and business numbers as a courtesy to listeners mistakenly calling into the wrong station.

25th anniversary
On April 15 and 16, 2010, Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa celebrated the 25th anniversary of its purchase of KWVE-FM and the station's Christian talk and music format with two evening concerts in the church sanctuary. The concerts featured Love Song, a Christian rock band founded at Calvary Chapel and popular during the Jesus Movement of the early 1970s, and messages from senior pastor Chuck Smith.

Website attacked by hackers
Beginning on October 17, 2010 visitors to KWVE-FM's website began complaining on the station's Facebook fan page that they could not access either the home page or the Flash Player live stream. The station replied that the web server experienced a hacker attack and the entire site had to be taken down while they cleared the hardware of malignant code and rebuilt the site "from the ground up". As of November 1 the site and live stream were back in operation.

Calvary Chapel Music Channel
On August 7, 2011 KWVE-FM announced on its website and Facebook page the creation of the Calvary Chapel Music Channel, a commercial-free iTunes channel streaming the station's music 24 hours a day.

Emergency Alert System
KWVE-FM was the Local Primary station of the Emergency Alert System (EAS) for Orange County until 2023. All radio stations and cable systems in the area must relay emergency information and required monthly tests from KWVE-FM, when activated.

On September 15, 2009, the Federal Communications Commission fined Calvary Chapel $5,000 for a botched EAS test on October 19, 2008. On that date, the station conducted a Required Monthly Test (RMT) by mistake, instead of the scheduled Required Weekly Test. The operator aborted the test midway through, leading the station to fail to broadcast a code to indicate the end of the test, causing all stations and cable systems in the area to broadcast KWVE-FM's programming until those stations took their equipment offline or their EAS equipment had timed out (after two minutes).

After the fine was levied, many state broadcast associations in the United States submitted a joint letter to the FCC, protesting against the fine, saying that the FCC could have handled the matter better. On November 13, 2009, the FCC rescinded its fine against KWVE-FM, but had still admonished the station for broadcasting an unauthorized RMT, as well as omitting the code to end the test.

On September 21, 2017, a glitch during a test conducted by KWVE caused the station to accidentally omit the end-of-message tone, which caused portions of Chuck Swindoll's Insight for Living program to accidentally be relayed to local cable providers. In the audio relayed, Swindoll was heard quoting a Biblical verse, 2 Timothy 3:1, and stating that "extremely violent times" would come, which led viewers hearing the audio out of context to believe that it had been hacked to inform of an impending apocalypse.

Mount Ward (Antarctica)

Mount Ward (°N, °W) is a mountain at the northeast end of Steeple Peaks, located south of Batterbee Mountains near George VI Sound in western Palmer Land. During a flight on December 23, 1947, by the Ronne Antarctic Research Expedition (RARE) (1947–48) a high peak was seen in the area southeast of Batterbee Mountains. It was named by F. Ronne after W.W. Ward of Beaumont, Texas, editor of the Beaumont Journal and a supporter of the expedition. No peak exists at the coordinates given by Ronne, but it is most likely that the feature here described was that seen by him.

Talk:Age progression

Requested move
Move to use wikistandard capitalization. Currently Age progression is a redir to Age regression which describes a literary device. Age progression is actually also a forensics technique used by law enforcement as well. I fixed up the original Age Progression article which described a dubious porn fetish to include both of the common meanings. Quale 17:18, 1 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Copied from WP:RM Alai 19:14, 1 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Add *Support or *Oppose followed by an optional one sentence explanation, then sign your vote with ~

 * Support'. Standard caps as per nom.  Alai 19:11, 1 October 2005 (UTC)

This article has been renamed as the result of a move request. Dragons flight 01:31, 15 October 2005 (UTC)

Discussion

 * Add any additional comments

I'd love to see some information on how age progression techniques and software work. I have to assume that at this point software involves some interesting mathematics and would be a worthwhile topic to elaborate on. It would also be nice to have a discussion of famous cases in which age progression was used successfully. --RedIsaac (talk) 01:35, 15 October 2009 (UTC)

13 Going on 30 in wrong category
Why is this movie classed under girls swapping bodies? She didn't swap bodies, she fast-forwarded to the future where she was 30 years old. NoriMori (ノリモリ) 18:40, 17 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Ah wait, it actually says that the girls' souls end up in the bodies of older women. In that sense I suppose this categorization is accurate, but I suggest that the words "body swap" be removed from that sentence to avoid confusion. NoriMori (ノリモリ) 18:40, 17 November 2010 (UTC)

Lack of info regarding forensic aspects of age progression
This article seems to mention the forensic uses of age progression only briefly, and then goes into its role in TV shows and films. There should be more information on the forensic aspects, such as photo examples, when the technique was developed, etc.... NoriMori (ノリモリ) 18:40, 17 November 2010 (UTC)

 * Also how effective it is. That's why I looked it up.  I wanted to see how effective it really is and read about the flaws because I have a hard time believing it's not just another polygraph.  You know?  One of those things law enforcement claims works but the science doesn't support.  Of course, now I've reached a research dead end, so I have to take the default position that it doesn't work until it's proven that it does.  It'd be nice if that sort of thing and its corresponding sources were added to the article 50.130.9.4 (talk) 15:01, 17 April 2012 (UTC)

 * Age progression software doesn't work. Age progression in forensics is an artistic guess, not a hard science. There is no evidence at all that a person can present an accurate representation of a person with age applied. On the contrary, due to an experiment using an old photo of Michael Jackson, it's pretty much been disproven, and disproving is a very hard thing to accomplish.85.237.211.76 (talk) 02:08, 14 September 2012 (UTC)

Talk:Moldavia (historical region)

Are you sure Bogdania was named after Bogdan I?
What are the sources that say Moldova was named Bogdania after Bogdan I? Axinte Uricariul says that it was named Bogdania after Bogdan II( 1449 - 1451), father of Stephen the Great: "Scrie la un letopiseţu sârbescu de Azarie călugărul izvodit, precum în zilele acestui Bogdan vodă s-au început a da dajde turcilor şi de aceia ne-au numit bogdani până astăzi. Acesto Bogdan vodă este tată lui Ştefan vodă cel Bun." (" And is written in a Serbian chronicle made by Azarie the monk, that in the days of voyvoda Bogdan we began to pay tribute to the Turks and because of this they called us Bogdans. This Bogdan was father of voyvoda Stefan the Kind ( Stephen the Great )" (Grigore Ureche, Letopisetul Tarii Moldovei, cap. "Războiul lui Bogdan vodă cu leşii" ) But there's a problem: in the following chapters Grigore Ureche says Petru Aron (1455-1457) began to pay tribute to the Turks. Anonimu 19:11, 1 October 2005 (UTC)

Bogdania
Deoarece Bogdan I este intemeietorul Moldovei, e logic ca dupa el sa fie numita tara Bogdania. Sursa mea este Enciclopedia Cugetarea scrisa intre 1936 - 1939 si tiparita in 1940. Dacodava Am revazut enciclopedia amintita mai sus si Moldova era numita Bogdania atat in timpul lui Bogdan I cat si in timpul lui Bogdan III, iar de la Bogdan III, turcii ii spuneau Bogda Iflak. Concluzie: Moldova era numita Bogdania de fiecare data cand un domitor se numea Bogdan. Dar primul evident ca a fost Bogdan I. Dacodava Precizare: Articolele in engleza despre Moldova nu-mi apartin, eu doar am comentat intrebarea referitoare la Bogdania. Dacodava

1950 NFL season

The 1950 NFL season was the 31st regular season of the National Football League. The merger with the All-America Football Conference (AAFC) expanded the league to 13 teams. Meanwhile, television brought a new era to the game. The Los Angeles Rams became the first NFL team to have all of its games – both home and away – televised. The Washington Redskins became the second team to put their games on TV. Other teams arranged to have selected games televised.

The AAFC–NFL merger
The NFL and the AAFC merged prior to the season, announced on December 9, 1949. Three AAFC teams — Cleveland Browns, San Francisco 49ers, and Baltimore Colts — joined the NFL intact. The players of the former AAFC New York Yankees team were divided up between the New York Giants and the New York Bulldogs (who changed their name to New York Yanks), the Los Angeles Dons and Los Angeles Rams merged, and a portion of the AAFC Buffalo Bills was absorbed into the Browns organization. A special dispersal draft was then held by the league's 13 teams on June 2, 1950, to allocate the rest of the AAFC players.

The 13 teams were realigned into the American and National conferences, which lasted for three seasons. The merged league briefly flirted with the name "National-American Football League", but restored the name "National Football League" a few months later on March 3, 1950. Under the alignment, both conferences had a team in New York and Chicago. The "American Conference" (formerly the Eastern Division) had six teams including the Giants and the Cardinals, and the "National Conference" (the old Western Division) had seven teams including the Yanks and the Bears, as well as the Baltimore Colts.

Baltimore was declared a "swing team" and played one game against 10 of the other 12 NFL clubs and twice against Washington. The original intent of the merger was to have the popular Cleveland Browns serve as this team for two years to equally help gate receipts throughout the league, however, this was refused point blank by Paul Brown. Over a 13-week season, one team was idle each week while the other 12 met in the six scheduled games. Each team played a home-and-away game against the other five teams in their conference, one game outside the conference, and one game against Baltimore over the course of a 12-game schedule.

The league also established the Pro Bowl in the 1950 season. Though the league had attempted an all-star game annually between 1938 and 1942, it had cancelled the game because of World War II and did not revive it when the war ended. Unlike the previous all-star game format, which pitted the league's most recent champion against the league's best all-stars, the Pro Bowl would pit two all-star teams, one from each conference, against each other.

Also, the 1950 season saw the first game played outside the United States when the New York Giants played the Ottawa Rough Riders of the Interprovincial Rugby Football Union in an exhibition match on August 12. The Giants and Rough Riders would repeat the feat in 1951; the Giants handily won both games.

Draft
The 1950 NFL draft was held from January 20–21, 1950, at Philadelphia's Bellevue-Stratford Hotel. With the first pick, the Detroit Lions selected end Leon Hart from the University of Notre Dame.

Major rule changes

 * The free substitution rule (any or all of the players may be replaced by substitutes after any play) was restored on a permanent basis. This change paved the way for player specialization in pro football, including three separate units for each team: offensive team, defensive team, and special teams.
 * If a backwards pass or fumble goes out of bounds before it is recovered, the team that had control of the ball last maintains possession.

Highlights

 * Week 1 The opening game of the 1950 NFL season was a matchup between the defending champions of the AAFC and the NFL, the Cleveland Browns and the Philadelphia Eagles, respectively.  There was tremendous anticipation from fans and the press, which called the game "The World Series of Pro Football". The teams had never met prior to September 16, 1950, and a crowd of 71,237 turned out in Philadelphia.  The Browns won 35–10. The First Fifty Years, a 1969 book that chronicles the first half-century of the NFL, listed the game as one of "Ten [Games] That Mattered" in bringing nationwide prestige to the league.
 * In Week 3 (October 1), the New York Giants handed the Browns their first shutout ever, winning 6–0 in Cleveland while grounding Otto Graham's passing attack.
 * In Week 5 (October 15), the Steelers beat the Giants 17–6 at the Polo Grounds, knocking them out of the American Conference lead. The other New York team, the Yanks, had a share of the lead in the National Conference after a 29–24 win in Yankee Stadium over the 49ers, but only 5,740 fans turned out to watch.
 * The Browns-Giants rematch took place on October 22 in Week 6 in New York, and the Giants won again, 17–13. In the west, the Colts scored four touchdowns against the Rams, but the Rams had ten in a 70–27 blowout.
 * Los Angeles had a 65–24 win over Detroit in Week 7 (October 29), which saw the Eagles reclaim the lead in their conference with a 35–3 win over Washington and the Giants' 17–3 loss to the Cardinals. In the other New York-Chicago game, the Yanks raised their record to 6–1–0 with a 38–27 win over the Bears.
 * The Yanks were idle in Week 8 (November 6), in which field goals played a prominent role. Pittsburgh's Joe Geri booted all the points in the Steelers' 9–7 win over the Eagles, and the Giants' Ray Poole made a 40-yard kick with 0:04 left to beat Washington 24–21.  The Browns regained the lead of the American conference in a 10–7 win over the Cards, with the margin being a Lou Groza field goal.
 * In Week 9 (November 13), the New York Yanks lost their rematch with the Bears, 28–20, putting both teams at 6–2, while the Rams took the lead in the National with a 45–7 win over Green Bay. Meanwhile, former AAFC teams Cleveland and San Francisco met for the first time in the NFL, with the Browns winning 34–17 to stay in front in the American.
 * A crowd of 42,673 turned out at Yankee Stadium to watch the New York Yanks, who lost to the Rams 43–35 in Week 10 (November 20), as L.A. and Cleveland kept their leads.
 * The big game of Week 11 on November 27 was in Chicago, where the Bears took a 24–0 lead over the Rams on the way to a 24–14 win, and a half-game lead (8–2 vs. 8–3) over them in the National Conference. Cleveland had a bye week, and the Giants 7–3 win over the Eagles tied them with the Browns in the American, with 8–2 records.
 * On December 3, 1950, all six of the Week 12 games had significance. Taunted as a team that couldn't win a game without passing, the Cleveland Browns won again against the Eagles, 13–7, this time without Otto Graham attempting a pass.  There were 17 punt returns, 12 by Philadelphia, both records. In New York, George Taliaferro had a record 8 kickoff returns for the Yanks in a 51–7 loss to the Giants.  Both the Browns and Giants stayed tied in the American Conference with records of 9–2–0. Bill Dudley of Washington returned a punt 96 yards for a touchdown in a 24–7 win over the Steelers. In the National Conference, Cloyce Box of Detroit had 302 yards receiving, one yard short of the NFL record, in a 45–21 win over Baltimore.  Tom Fears had an NFL record 18 pass receptions for the Rams in a 51–14 win over Green Bay and a 9–3–0 record to lead the division. Meanwhile, the Bears were upset by the crosstown Cardinals, 20–10, dropping them to 8–3–0, a half game behind L.A.
 * In the final week, Week 13, the Browns, Giants and Bears were all in must-win situations, while the Rams had finished their season at 9–3–0. The Bears, at 8–3–0, were tied 3–3 with the Lions after three quarters. George Blanda booted a 22-yard field goal and Chicago held on for a 6–3 win to give them a 9–3–0 record and a tie for the National Conference title with the Rams. The Browns and Giants were both at 9–2–0, and both were playing on the road. Cleveland handled Washington 45–21, while the Giants had to fight off numerous drives by Philadelphia to protect a 9–7 win. With ties for first place in both conferences, the NFL title game had to be delayed a week while an unprecedented four team playoff took place.  The Giants and Browns would meet in Cleveland, while the Bears and the Rams would meet in Los Angeles.

Playoffs
The only scheduled playoff game was the championship game. The two conference playoffs were tiebreakers.

NFL records set or tied in 1950

Constance Collier

Constance Collier (born Laura Constance Hardie; 22 January 1878 – 25 April 1955) was an English stage and film actress and acting coach. She wrote plays and films with Ivor Novello and she was the first person to be treated with insulin in Europe.

Early life and stage career
Born Laura Constance Hardie in Windsor, Berkshire to Auguste Cheetham Hardie and Eliza Georgina Collier, Constance Collier made her stage debut at the age of three, when she played Fairy Peasblossom in A Midsummer Night's Dream. In 1893, at the age of 15, she joined the Gaiety Girls, the famous dance troupe based at the Gaiety Theatre in London. In 1905, Collier married English actor Julian Boyle (stage name Julian L'Estrange). She was known to be very tall with a big personality. On 27 December 1906, Sir Herbert Beerbohm Tree's extravagant revival of Antony and Cleopatra opened at His Majesty's Theatre, with Tree as Mark Antony and Collier as Cleopatra.

Famed for his realistic productions, Tree and his designer, Percy Macquoid, dressed Collier in elaborate costumes. Later, Collier commented: "There is only a mention in the play of Cleopatra appearing as the goddess Isis. Tree elaborated this into a great tableau... Cleopatra, robed in silver, crowned in silver, carrying a golden scepter and the symbol of the sacred golden calf in her hand, went in procession through the streets of Alexandria, the ragged, screaming populace acclaiming the Queen, half in hate, half in superstitious fear and joy as she made her sacrilegious ascent to her high throne in the market-place."

At this point, Collier was an established actress. In January 1908, she starred with Beerbohm Tree at His Majesty's Theatre in J. Comyn's new play The Mystery of Edwin Drood, based on Charles Dickens's unfinished novel of the same name. Later that year, she made the first of several tours of the United States. During the second, made with Beerbohm Tree in 1916, she made four silent films, including an uncredited appearance in D. W. Griffith's Intolerance (she can be seen being carried through the entrance to the city in the Babylonian part of the film) and as Lady Macbeth in Tree's disastrous first film interpretation of Shakespeare's Macbeth.

In 1918, her husband died from influenza while they were in New York. Following his death she returned to England. No children were born from the marriage.

In the early 1920s, she established a close friendship with the actor Ivor Novello. They both appeared in the silent film "The Bohemian Girl" in 1922 with Gladys Cooper and Ellen Terry. They wrote together under the pen name "James Lestrange". Around the same time, Collier became seriously ill from diabetes and treatment proved expensive. She was sent to Switzerland for treatment in 1923 then taken to a doctor in Strasbourg. She was the first patient in Europe ever to be treated with the drug insulin following its recent discovery by Frederick Banting and others in Toronto. Fully recovered, she played the Duchesse de Surennes in Somerset Maugham's comedy Our Betters, and in the following year, collaborated with Ivor Novello on a play called The Rat. She also appeared in several plays with him, including the British version of the American play, The Firebrand by Edwin Justus Mayer. In 1924, Collier introduced Novello to the poet Siegfried Sassoon, with whom she had a six-month affair. While Sassoon destroyed his diary for this period, his unhappiness over their relationship became well-known, and according to his biographer Jean Moorcroft Wilson, it 'pitched him into [what he referred to as] an "unblinking hell"'.

Collier's writing career is notable for her collaboration with Deems Taylor on the libretto of the opera Peter Ibbetson, which was premiered at the Metropolitan Opera in February 1931 and which received mixed reviews. In 1935, upon her arrival in Hollywood, Luise Rainer hired Collier to improve Rainer's theatre acting and English, and to learn the basics of film acting.

Hollywood
In the late 1920s Collier relocated to Hollywood where she became a voice coach and teacher in diction. This was during the tumultuous changeover from silent films to sound and many silent actors with no theatre training were scrambling for lessons.

Her most famous pupil was arguably Colleen Moore, which was documented in an interview by film historian Kevin Brownlow for the series Hollywood (1980) about the silent film era. Collier nevertheless maintained ties to Broadway and appeared in several plays in the 1930s. In 1932 Collier starred as Carlotta Vance in the original production of George S. Kaufman and Edna Ferber's comedy Dinner at Eight. The role was played in the 1933 film version by Marie Dressler.

She appeared in the films Stage Door (1937), Mitchell Leisen's Kitty (1945, a comedic performance as Lady Susan, the drunken aunt of Ray Milland), Perils of Pauline with Betty Hutton, Alfred Hitchcock's Rope (1948) and Otto Preminger's Whirlpool (1949).

During the making of the film version of Stage Door, she became great friends with Katharine Hepburn, a friendship that lasted the rest of Collier's life.

Collier was presented with the American Shakespeare Festival Theatre Award for distinguished service in training and guiding actors in Shakespearean roles. Collier was a drama coach for many famous actors, including Audrey Hepburn, Vivien Leigh and Marilyn Monroe. She coached Katharine Hepburn during Hepburn's world tour performing Shakespeare in the 1950s. Upon Collier's death in 1955, Hepburn "inherited" Collier's secretary Phyllis Wilbourn, who remained with Hepburn as her secretary for 40 years.

Collier has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

Collier died of a heart attack in Manhattan on 25 April 1955 at the age of 77.

Bombay to Goa (1972 film)

Bombay to Goa is a 1972 Indian Hindi-language road comedy film directed by S. Ramanathan and produced by Mehmood and N. C. Sippy. Released in India on 3 March 1972, the film stars Amitabh Bachchan, Aruna Irani, Shatrughan Sinha, Nazir Hussain, Mehmood and Anwar Ali in lead roles. The film is known particularly for its catchy tunes and was a "superhit" at the box office. The film is a remake of a 1966 hit Tamil film Madras to Pondicherry and was an inspiration for the 2004 Marathi movie Navra Maza Navsacha which in turn was remade in Kannada in 2007 as Ekadantha. The Hindu had reported that Rajiv Gandhi was offered the lead role by Mehmood but he had turned it down.

Plot
The lives of Atmaram (Nazir Hussain) and his wife (Dulari) are turned upside down when they see the photographs of their daughter, Mala (Aruna Irani), in a magazine. They arrange for Mala's marriage with the son of Ramlal (Agha), but Mala is opposed to marrying anyone who she has not met, and is at the same time thrilled that the two persons she trusted, one Sharma (Shatrughan Sinha) and the other Verma (Manmohan), had actually submitted her photographs to a magazine, and were now willing to sign her up for a Bollywood film. Mala is not able to understand her parents' opposition on her way to fame and runs away from home with a lot of money for Sharma and Verma. Greed overtakes Sharma, leading to the death of Verma. Mala, who witnessed Sharma kill Verma, now is on the run for her life. She boards a bus from Mumbai which is bound for Goa. Sharma soon overtakes her, and has one of his armed henchmen on the bus to kill her, and then arrives Mala's admirer and bodyguard, Ravi Kumar (Amitabh Bachchan), who not only protects Mala, but also accompanies her throughout the journey. Mala begins to trust and subsequently fall in love with Ravi Kumar. The bus journey is adventurous with the passengers, a totally mixed bunch, from all over India, different religions, cultures, and faiths, all thrown together for this journey. The bus is in the "control" of bus driver Rajesh (Anwar Ali), and bus conductor Khanna (Mehmood).

Nový Jičín

Nový Jičín (Neutitschein) is a town in the Moravian-Silesian Region of the Czech Republic. It has about 23,000 inhabitants. The historic centre of Nový Jičín is well preserved and is protected by law as an urban monument reservation.

Nový Jičín is known for the hatmaking industry and is nicknamed the "town of hats".

Administrative parts
The villages of Bludovice, Kojetín, Loučka, Straník and Žilina are administrative parts of Nový Jičín.

Etymology
There are two theories as to how the name "Jičín" came about. According to local legends, it could be derived from the brave daughter of a local castle owner named Jitka (Jitčín, later evolved to Jičín). Another theory derives the name from the Slavic word for wild boar div (Dičín, later amended to Jičín).

The attribute Nový ("new") was added to distinguish it from Starý Jičín ("Old Jičín").

Geography
Nový Jičín is located about 30 km southwest of Ostrava. It lies in the Moravian-Silesian Foothills. The highest point is the hill Dlouhý kopec at 585 m above sea level. The town is situated on the small river of Jičínka, at its confluence with the streams Zrzávka, Grasmanka and Rakovec.

History
The first written mention of Nový Jičín is from 1313, however it was probably founded around 1280. It was established as the economic centre of the Starý Jičín estate. It was a property of Lords of Kravaře and later of the Zierotin family.

Žerotínský Castle was originally part of the town fortifications, the construction of which began in the 1380s and continued in the early 16th century. During the rule of Bedřich of Zierotin (1533–1541), the castle was rebuilt into a Renaissance residence.

In 1620, Frederick V promoted Nový Jičín to a royal town. The town was decimated by Thirty Years' War and by large fires in 1768 and 1773.

In the 19th century, the Jewish population returned to the town and large textile factories were established. The hatter industry has flourished and Nový Jičín is still today called the "town of hats". During the industrialization in the mid-19th century, two town gates and most turrets and attic of the castle were demolished. Only two defense towers were left in memory.

Until 1918, the town was part of Austria-Hungary, head of the district with the same name, one of the 34 Bezirkshauptmannschaften in Moravia.

After the end of World War I, by 24 November 1918, the town became part of the Czechoslovak Republic.

The German population was expelled in 1945.

Economy
Nový Jičín is known for the hatting industry. Hats have been made here since 1630. The mechanical production began here in 1865 and is the oldest hat factory in the world. The modern TONAK company was established in 1945 and is still one of the three largest headwear manufacturers in the world.

The largest employer with headquarters in the town is Hanon Systems Autopal, a manufacturer of refrigeration and air conditioning components for the automotive industry. The company employs more than 1,500 people.

Transport
Nový Jičín lies on the European route E462. The town lies about 8 km from the station on the high-speed railway line in Suchdol nad Odrou. There is the Nový Jičín–Suchdol nad Odrou railway line of local importance.

The largest airport in the region, Leoš Janáček Airport Ostrava is about 15 kilometres from Nový Jičín.

Sights
The historic core of Nový Jičín is a Renaissance-Baroque town with a pure example of medieval urbanism of the second half of the 13th century. In its centre is a square with arcades and a rectangular system of adjacent streets. In the 16th century, the arcades were built and the wooden houses were replaced by stone ones.

The town square is lined by preserved Renaissance and Baroque burger houses. The town hall was a Renaissance house from the 16th century, rebuilt to the town hall in 1661. In 1881, the façade was rebuilt and modified in the pseudo-Gothic style. In 1929–1930, an insensitive pseudo-Renaissance reconstruction was made.

The most valuable house is Stará pošta (i.e. "old post office"), a two-storey Renaissance house from 1563. In a historic house where general Ernst Gideon von Laudon died in 1790 is the tourist information centre and an exposition of the hat-making tradition of Nový Jičín.

The Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary is the landmark of the historic centre. It has a Renaissance 66 m high tower from 1587. The original Gothic castle was replaced by the current building by the Jesuits in 1732–1740.

The oldest stone building in Nový Jičín is the Žerotínský Castle from the 1380s. Today it houses the regional museum. Only a bastion from 1613 and few fragments of the town walls are preserved to this day.

Vaginal atresia

Vaginal atresia is a condition in which the vagina is abnormally closed or absent. The main causes can either be complete vaginal hypoplasia, or a vaginal obstruction, often caused by an imperforate hymen or, less commonly, a transverse vaginal septum. It results in uterovaginal outflow tract obstruction. This condition does not usually occur by itself within an individual, but coupled with other developmental disorders within the female. The disorders that are usually coupled with a female who has vaginal atresia are Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser syndrome, Bardet-Biedl syndrome, or Fraser syndrome. One out of every 5,000 women have this abnormality.

Symptoms and signs
Symptoms and signs in the newborn can be sepsis, abdominal mass, and respiratory distress. Other abdominopelvic or perineal congenital anomalies frequently prompt radiographic evaluation in the newborn, resulting in a diagnosis of coincident vaginal atresia. Symptoms for vaginal atresia include cyclical abdominal pain, the inability to start having menstrual cycles, a small pouch or dimple where a vaginal opening should be, and pelvic mass when the upper vagina becomes filled with menstrual blood. Signs and symptoms of vaginal atresia or vaginal agenesis can often go unnoticed in females until they reach the age of menstruation. Women may also experience some form of abdominal pain or cramping.

Causes
The cause for vaginal atresia is unknown. Typically, the creation of the vaginal canal is completed within the fetus by the 20th week of gestation. Researchers believe in patients with vaginal atresia, tubes known as the Müllerian ducts do not develop correctly within the first 20 weeks of gestation/pregnancy. Typically, one of these ducts develops in the fallopian tubes while the other ducts develop into the vagina and uterus. Vaginal atresia is found to occur when the urogenital sinus does not contribute to the formation of the lower portion of the vagina. As previously mentioned, there are other disorders or syndromes that are found in conjunction with individuals living with vaginal atresia. These disorders are:

Rokitansky-Mayer-Küster-Hauser syndrome
Rokitansky-Mayer-Küster-Hauser syndrome is a disorder in females that causes the uterus and vagina to be absent or underdeveloped. Those born with this disorder are considered to be genetic female and have a 46XX chromosomes. Kidney anomalies often accompany this disorder as well. Also referred to as Müllerian agenesis, vaginal agenesis, or Müllerian aplasia, this disorder affects 1 in every 4,000-5,000 females. A cloacal malformation often accompanies this disorder, which is the surgical treatment that incorporates several vaginal replacement techniques. This disorder is caused by an implication in the WNT4 protein coding gene, which is found on the short arm (p) of chromosome 1. A genetic mutation occurs causing a substitution of leucine to proline residue at position 12 on the amino acid in the WNT4 protein. Essentially, this will cause a reduction in the intranuclear levels of β catenin. Additionally, steroidogenic enzymes such as 17α-hydroxylase and 3β-hydroxysteriod dehydrogenase are inhibited because of this mutation, which leads to an excess amount to androgen in the system. As the WNT4 gene is essential for developing a protein that is essential for female sex development, the Müllerian duct is either absent or deformed when this gene is not present. The development of the female reproductive system may be disrupted in the absence of the WNT4 protein's regulation. Abnormal androgen production is also induced, eventually leading to hyperandrogenism and Müllerian aplasia.

Bardet-Biedl Syndrome
Bardet-Biedl syndrome (BBS) is a ciliopathic human genetic disorder that can affect various parts of the body. Parts of the urogenital system where the effects of BBS are seen include: ectopic urethra, kidney failure, uterus duplex, hypogonadism, septate vagina, and hypoplasia of the fallopian tubes, uterus, ovaries. Some of the common characteristics associated with this syndrome include intellectual disorders, loss of vision, kidney problems, and obesity.

The mechanism that causes BBS is still remains unclear. Mutations in more than 20 genes can cause BBS and is an inherited recessive condition. Some of the gene mutations that occur in BBS are listed below:

BBS1, BBS2, ARL6 (BBS3), BBS4, BBS5, MKKS (BBS6), BBS7, TTC8 (BBS8), BBS9, BBS10, TRIM32 (BBS11), BBS12, MKS1 (BBS13), CEP290 (BBS14), WDPCP (BBS15), SDCCAG8 (BBS16), LZTFL1 (BBS17), BBIP1 (BBS18), IFT27 (BBS19), IFT72 (BBS20), and C8ORF37(BBS21) The majority of the genes that are related to BBS encode proteins which are called cilia and basal bodies, which are related structures.

Fraser Syndrome
Fraser syndrome is a disorder that affects the development of the child prior to birth. Infants born with Fraser syndrome often have eyes that are malformed and completely covered by skin. Also the child is born with fingers and toes that are fused together along with abnormalities within the urine tract. As this disorder relates to vaginal atresia, infants born with Fraser syndrome are also born with malformations in their genitals.

McKusick-Kaufman syndrome
A female with McKusick-Kaufman syndrome has vaginal atresia that is often present with imperforate anus, heart defects, hydrometrocolpos, and/or polydactyly, The female will still develop secondary sexual characteristics.

Mechanism
The exact mechanism for vaginal atresia is not well known, as specific molecular mechanisms which lead to the closing or absence of the vagina are unclear. There are various pathways that may support or restrict regular vaginal development. Research has shown that changing factors may also include paracrine and autocrine signals and changes in the basis of developing organs. Specific patterns of genetic transmission have not been identified for this condition. Normal reproductive organ production requires timely coordination of the following systems: external genitalia, internal ductal system, and gonadal structure. The abnormal development of the vagina results in an incomplete unit (low, mid, high transverse septum), failure of epithelium degeneration (imperforate hymen), and vaginal atresia.

According to a number of medical professionals, timely coordination of interdependent systems is required for normal reproductive organ development in both males and females. The description of vaginal atresia mechanism can be explained in several steps of development of the uterovaginal canal per the information provided by these medical professionals. These interdependent systems are external genitalia, gonadal structures, and internal ductal system. The absence of androgens, Müllerian-inhibiting substance (MIS), and testes causes the continuous differentiation of the Müllerian ducts with reversion of the Wolffian ducts in the female embryo. The Müllerian duct will then elongate to reach the urogenital sinus within 9 weeks of gestation; this forms the uterovaginal canal. By 15–26 weeks of gestation, cephalic growth of the sinovaginal bulb is completed. The vaginal plate is also formed from the fusion of vaginal cord with the sinovaginal bulb.

The formation of the uterovaginal canal is thought to occur from the caudal to the cephalic portion, all while the urogenital sinus is used to create the epithelial lining. Development of the vagina is completed by the fifth month of gestation. While the mesenchyme that surrounds the structures transitions into musculature of the genital tract, the fallopian tubes are formed via the cephalic remnants of the Müllerian duct. This developmental process attributes to the process of how proper vaginal development takes place. Failure of the septum to regress between the fused Müllerian ducts results in a septate uterus. The incomplete fusion of the Müllerian ducts attributes to the formation of arcuate, bicornuate, or didelphid uteri.

Females who have both Rokitansky-Mayer-Küster-Hauser syndrome and uterovaginal atresia are theorized to have a failing caudal development within the Müllerian ducts. Variations of transverse vaginal septum might be described by the malfunctions at the level of the vaginal plate. Though the Müllerian and urogenital sinuses play a huge role in the derivation of the vagina, it is unclear how much of a role each of these play normal vaginal development.

Diagnosis
Vaginal atresia can sometimes be diagnosed by physical examination soon after birth. A child with vaginal atresia often has other congenital abnormalities and other tests such as X-ray and tests to evaluate the kidneys are done. Findings in adolescents may include abdominal pain, difficulty voiding, and backache, but most present with amenorrhea. Difficulties with sexual intercourse can suggest atresia. In the event that the condition is not caught shortly after birth, vaginal atresia becomes more evident when no menstrual cycle is occurs. If vaginal atresia is suspected by the doctor, a blood test may also be request for any of the previously mentioned syndromes, a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) test, or an ultrasound. A regular evaluation of children born with an imperforate anus or anorectal malformation should be paired with the assessment of the results from these tests.

Treatment
There are several methods of treatment for individuals with vaginal atresia. The first method of treatment that is recommended would be self-dilation of the vagina. A doctor may first recommend that the patient first attempts to create a vagina themselves through the process self-dilation. The self dilation technique consists of using vaginal dilators, which are small round tubes that vary in size and are similar in size and shape to tampons. Vaginal dilators may be pressed alongside the vaginal area on a regular basis in order to further open the vaginal canal. Frank's procedure is a technique that used a progressive series of vaginal dilators that are inserted into the dimple of the vagina while using pressure. This will widen any space that exists between the bladder and the rectum. Frank's procedure can be performed directly by the patient, therefore requiring no surgery or anesthesia. The procedure/technique can take months to complete, with regular compliance necessary. The overall success rate for females who use Frank's procedure is 80%. If this procedure does not work, then surgery would be the next method of treatment. Another alternative form of treatment would be surgery, or the creation of a new vagina.

Prognosis
The prognosis for vaginal atresia is one that is complicated. There are variations in patients' anatomic findings as well as an absence in consistent surgical techniques which makes it difficult to give a prognosis for this condition. Along with other conditions that give rise to an abnormal perineum (i.e. ambiguous genitalia and other various abnormalities that range from cloaca to urogenital sinus), individuals with vaginal atresia often report reconstruction as an outcome of treatment. Due to this, it is difficult to compare outcomes between individuals with vaginal atresia.

Rokitansky-Mayer-Küster-Hauser Syndrome
Fertility options for girls and women with Rokitansky-Mayer-Küster-Hauser syndrome has a bit more information. Girls and women who are born without a complete vagina, but still have a regular sized uterus more than likely will be able to become pregnant and have a baby. However, if the female is born with a tiny uterus, or without a uterus, they will not be able to have a baby. As the ovaries may be normal in this case, the egg may be fertilized with a donor's or partner's sperm. In this case, surrogacy, would be an option where there will be a gestational carrier to carry the pregnancy for the couple. Adoption may also be an option for females with Rokitansky-Mayer-Küster-Hauser syndrome. Another possibility could be uterine transplants, however this a new and developing form of treatment. Fertility options are being researched daily, so there can always be a new method available.

Any pain associated with Rokitansky-Mayer-Küster-Hauser syndrome comes from menstruation related cramping and can be treated with several ways. Individuals with this syndrome may be born with a uterine remnant (tiny uterus), which can become filled with blood in the pelvic cavity causing pain. A medical professional can assess the severity of having a uterine remnant within each patient to determine if removal of the uterus is necessary.

Bardet-Biedl Syndrome
There is no cure available for individuals with Bardet-Biedl Syndrome; however, there are methods of treatment for some of the signs and symptoms within each individual. Corrective surgery of malformation related to the disorder may be an option for treatment. Genetic counseling can also be beneficial to families with this disorder.

Talk:Dutch Gold

'The guy'
what do you want of me? Well you know your Dutch Gold. I want to discuss how to improve this page. I've removed the reference to this friend of yours, I mean who the hell is he? Cian whatever. I'm thinking of starting similar pages for Tuborg and Pravsky etc, and I want you on board. And register properly. Get a username.

New Poster
Could the guy who added the new content, for example the 6 for 7 competition and this cian finnelly chap, please contact me. User_talk:Jayteecork

Old Dutch Gold Can picture
Please put up a picture of old Dutch before it is extinct. It tastes better you know its true - it's got the added taste of nostalgia.

Tuborg
You aritcle is a little inaccurate.

Tuborg is not really a low cost beer in the same manner as the others are. In its home country of Denmark Tuborg is a very respectable beer brewed by Carlsberg and is preferred by many to the more famous Carlsberg.

Recently a fresh attempt has been made to introduce Tuborg into the Irish market..and in order to gain market share have started selling it at a very low price in comparison to other fine beers. As a result Tuborg is often mistaken by the illinformed Irish drinker to be a low cost, and hence low quality beer. Try it and you'll see this is not the case, it is of far superior quality the most of the other low cost beers including 'Dutchie'.

I have tried it. It's not bad, but I still prefer the Dutchie!User:Jayteecork

This is the same for Bavaria Beer, the reference here is to the Irish market, I feel that much has been removed from this page that was of worth. It should be reinstated, but perhaps should be sectionalised into sales districts, e.g. Status of it in Ireland/Status elsewhere

==== I'm not sure what to make of the sentence "Tuborg, a rich pilsner beer from Denmark, drank by royalty."

89.100.16.158 (talk) 16:51, 9 June 2012 (UTC)

'Scangers', 'hangover comments'
This page needs a lot of work. The reference to what kind of a hangover Tuborg gives you and the constant references to 'scangers', coupled with the quotes at the end are not suitable for an encyclopedia. Adding NPOV dispute header.

Though amusing, this article needs a more serious rewrite.

I do not entirely agree that the female quote is indeed unsuitable. Dutch Gold has a very special place in Irish society. Its acceptance among young female drinkers, (and the acceptance by males that females can drink Dutch Gold and not be unusual), is a major change in Irish culture. For this reason I believe that the courting quote sums up the change extremely well.

I created the Dutch Gold Wiki, and am going to reinstate some of the humour that was removed. Dutch Gold, for those who drink it and are aware of the student/scanger culture, will be fully aware of the silliness that the drink represents. From Scangers drinking on the street to filthy student parties, Dutchie is synomous with a seedy, yet amusing persona. The person who deemed it necessary to remove this content is probably a drinker of Coors Lite or something.User:Jayteecork

 * Some of the stuff reverted was quite hurtfull and I think far more critical of scangers than students. --TallaghNacker 22:54, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

Where has this article gone?
This article no longer gives an accurate discription of Dutch Gold. Please return it to its previous (full) version

Yes, I think that's a good idea User:Jayteecork

Would anyone agree that this article could do with being cleaned up? --Jasonm 02:37, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

Dutch Gold Van and Merchandise
If anyone spots the Dutch Gold van and manages to take a picture, please contact me or upload it yourself. the same goes for the legendary Dutch Gold Merchandise: Pens, Coasters, etc. Take the snaps and get them up! user:Jayteecork

Appreciation Society
How's it going guys. Bascially, I'm attempting to start up a Dutch Gold Appreciation Society online. Now I havn't a clue about html, so I'm using Homestead, restricted to just three pages thought. Any suggestions warmly welcomed, and spread the word!

Ray D'arcy show
Apparently this Dutch gold Wiki (that I created) was mentioned by Ray on his show! Anyone know about it? user:Jayteecork

Tuborg Hat
I think a mention of the free tuborg hat should be made the "hat" comes free with the 6 for 7 packs of tuborg, by opening the cardboard in a certain way, if any one has any pics of one (ill look for some of mine too) put them up

this alone has been reason enough for us to buy tuborg over dutch.

also amsterdamn is extremly unpopular with everyone i have ever met due to its vile taste, its not really a challenge for dutch.

Other than that i think this post should keep its humor. Owwmykneecap 01:51, 9 June 2006 (UTC)

Neutrality
The section regarding the "deals" one can purchase a six pack of Dutch for x EUR, etc. reads (to me at least) very much like a promotional section, possibly written by someone with a financial interest in ensuring that a certian beer sells well. Although I personally think it's wonderful that 8 cans of Dutch Gold can now be purchased for 8 euro (forgive me, I'm a student) I don't believe I should be discovering this from an encyclopedia.

Barnyard (film)

Barnyard (also known as Barnyard: The Original Party Animals) is a 2006 animated comedy film produced by Nickelodeon Movies and O Entertainment and distributed by Paramount Pictures. The film is produced, written, and directed by Steve Oedekerk, and stars the voices of Kevin James, Courteney Cox, Sam Elliott, Danny Glover, Wanda Sykes, Andie MacDowell, Tino Insana, John DiMaggio, and David Koechner. It tells the story of Otis, a carefree cow (actually a male bullock with udders) who learns the value of responsibility when he becomes the leader of his farm home's community after his adoptive father's death from a coyote attack.

Barnyard began development in 2002 and was released in the United States on August 4, 2006. The film received negative reviews from critics and grossed $116.5 million worldwide against a $51 million production budget. It was continued into a television series called Back at the Barnyard, which aired on Nickelodeon and later Nicktoons for two seasons.

Plot
Otis is a carefree cow who lives on a farm where the animals are anthropomorphic when humans are not watching them. Instead of following rules and accepting responsibility, Otis prefers to have fun with his friends Pip the mouse, Pig the pig, Peck the rooster, and Freddy the ferret, to the disapproval of his adoptive father Ben, the farm's leader. One evening, Otis convinces Ben to cover his night watch so he can attend a massive party in the barn and impress Daisy, a pregnant cow who recently arrived at the farm with her best friend Bessy as newcomers. Before Otis leaves, Ben tells him he saw the stars dance the night he found him as a calf. As the animals party, Dag the coyote and his pack attempt to raid the chicken coop. Ben fends them off alone, but is mortally wounded and collapses. The lead hen Etta rushes back to the barn to notify Otis; he finds Ben in critical condition and he dies in his arms, making Otis feel guilty and heartbroken for not being there for him.

The Farmer buries Ben the following morning; after he leaves, the entire farm arrives at the gravesite to hold a funeral service for Ben, concluding with Etta placing flowers on his grave and everyone praying for him. Later, the farm elects a mournful and reluctant Otis as the new leader. He struggles with his new position and duties, which unexpectedly include salvaging an incident in which the farmer witnesses the animals partying and Miles, a mule and Ben's old friend from childhood, knocks him unconscious. Leaving Peck and Freddy to watch over the chicken coop, Otis joins the Jersey Cows, a trio of troublemaking cows, in getting revenge against a cow tipping bully. After narrowly avoiding the police, Otis returns for his night watch and shares a tender moment with Daisy, who says her previous mate and former herd were wiped out by a storm. Otis soon encounters Dag, who notices Otis’ weakness as a leader and taunts him over Ben's death. Dag arranges a deal to periodically steal animals from the farm, or else his pack will slaughter them all if Otis attempts to stop them.

Ashamed, Otis decides to abandon the farm, but relents after learning that Dag's pack has taken several hens including Etta and her young daughter Maddy during the day behind his back. Encouraged by Miles, Otis sets out to confront Dag alone at his junkyard den. Dag's pack overpowers Otis, but his friends arrive to fight alongside him. Together, they rescue the hens along with Maddy and drive off the coyote pack, while Otis warns Dag to never threaten the farm again. The animals hijack motorcycles and hurry back to the farm, where Daisy gives birth to a calf named in Ben's memory. Otis vows to protect the farm as his father did before watching the stars form images of him, Daisy, and young Ben dancing together.

Release
Paramount Pictures released Barnyard in the United States theaters on August 4, 2006. It grossed approximately between $116.5 million and $118.6 million at the worldwide box office, against a budget of $51 million.

Home media
Barnyard was released by Paramount Home Entertainment on DVD on December 12, 2006, in separate widescreen and full-screen versions. The DVD includes the alternate opening, a "Barnyard Bop" music video, a comic book creator, and a commentary by Steve Oedekerk and Paul Marshal. Barnyard was released on Blu-ray for the first time on January 25, 2022.

Critical reception
On Rotten Tomatoes, the film holds an approval rating of based on  reviews and an average rating of. The website's critical consensus reads, "Unimaginative and unfunny, this tale of barnyard mischief borders on 'udder' creepiness and adds little to this summer's repertoire of animated films." On Metacritic, it has a score of 42 out of 100 based on 24 critics, indicating "mixed or average reviews". Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave the film an average grade of "B+" on an A+ to F scale.

Roger Moore of the Orlando Sentinel gave the film 2 stars out of 5, saying that, "with Barnyard, another quick-and-dirty 'all-star cast' mess churned out by the digital start-ups hired to steal some of Pixar's cash, the year that computer-generated animation 'jumps the shark' becomes official. Politically correct, anatomically incorrect and ugly to look at, the only thing that saves Barnyard is writer (and director) Steve Oedekerk's gift for gags and almost-edgy humor." Kyle Smith of the New York Post gave the film a score of 1.5/4, saying that "if you want to punish your kids, send them to bed without dinner. If you want to disturb, frighten and depress them while making sure they fail biology, take them to the animated feature Barnyard." Gregory Kirschling of Entertainment Weekly criticized the film's plot, giving it a C+ score and said that "it feels like Barnyard swipes too much of its plot from The Lion King."

On the positive side, J. R. Jones of the Chicago Reader enjoyed Barnyard, saying that "it's way funnier than many of the R-rated comedies I've seen lately, though Oedekerk seems to have ignored the writer's edict to know your subject—most of his cows are male. The CGI is excellent, with characters whose depth and solidity suggest Nick Park's clay animations. The laughs subside near the end as the requisite moral kicks in, but this is still that rare kids' movie I'd recommend to parents and non-parents alike." Claudia Puig of USA Today gave the film a score of 2.5/4, calling it "a sweet and mildly funny movie that will entertain young audiences, but one aspect is utterly mystifying: The two main characters, father and son bovine creatures, have large, distracting udders."

Box office
Barnyard grossed $72.6 million domestically and $43.9 million internationally for a worldwide total of $116.5 million against its production budget of $51 million.

The film opened at #2 at the box office on its opening weekend behind Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby, earning around 15.8 million at the domestic box office from 3,311 theaters. On the film's second weekend, it dropped 38.7%, grossing $9.7 million and finishing in 4th place, behind Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby, Step Up, and World Trade Center. By its closing on November 2, 2006, it grossed almost $73 million in its domestic theatrical release.

Soundtrack
The film's score is done by John Debney, who also previously scored Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius (2001). The soundtrack was released on August 22, 2006, by Bulletproof Records. It includes an original song by indie pop band the Starlight Mints and "You Gotta Move" by Aerosmith.

Martin DeFoor

Martin DeFoor (September 17, 1805 – July 25, 1879) was an early Atlanta settler.

Background
In the 1840s, he moved his family from Franklin County, Georgia to Panthersville. In 1853, he moved to the Bolton area and took over operation of Montgomery ferry and resided at the Montgomery home the rest of his life. It was thereafter known as DeFoor's Ferry. From that time until his death, DeFoor and his family lived in the former Montgomery home, one of the oldest in the county, and located on the west side of what is now Chattahoochee Avenue, just north of Moore's Mill Road. The house was torn down in August 1879, by Thomas Moore, a son-in-law of DeFoor who used the lumber in erecting a barn on his own place just across the road.

Death
On July 25, 1879, he and his wife, Susan, were brutally murdered. Both had been attacked with an axe and were found at 6am on July 26 by their grandson.

The killer was never identified, nor a motive established. They were not known to have any enemies and nothing was stolen except some promissory notes, despite the couple having cash in plain sight. A search of the house uncovered signs that someone had hidden in their house beforehand and the axe was found in the fireplace.

At one point, newspapers claimed a man named Joe Johnson had confessed to their murders. But his confession proved false.

They are buried in Montgomery Family Cemetery in Bolton.

English Coast

English Coast is a portion of the coast of Antarctica between the northern tip of Rydberg Peninsula and the Buttress Nunataks, on the west side of Palmer Land. To the west is Bryan Coast, and northward runs Rymill Coast east of Alexander Island across George VI Sound. This coast was discovered and explored in 1940, on land by Finn Ronne and Carl R. Eklund and from the air by other members of the East Base of the US Antarctic Service (USAS), 1939–41. It was originally named "Robert English Coast" after Capt. Robert A.J. English, US Navy, Executive Secretary of USAS, 1939–41, and formerly Captain of the Bear of Oakland on the Byrd Antarctic Expedition, 1933–35. The name is shortened for the sake of brevity.

English Coast is divided between Palmer Land on the Antarctic Peninsula and Ellsworth Land to the south and west.

RCUT: Michigan left or Superstreet feature?
I disagree with this edit because the diagram of a restricted crossing U-turn on the last page of this document looks just like a Michigan left with a discontinuous side street. This variant does exist in Michigan: 41.805°N, -86.322°W It's missing the direct left turns from the main highway that a superstreet intersection has. However, the document states above the diagram "This type of improvement has been used for several years in Maryland, Tennessee and North Carolina...." where superstreets exist so apparently they think that it's a modified superstreet intersection. Should we mention RCUT on both articles? Should RCUT have its own article? Mapsax (talk) 12:15, 14 October 2018 (UTC)
 * I believe the general description of a Michigan left allows cross traffic on the minor streets. Superstreet is currently described in WP as being a variant of the Michigan left. FHWA also makes a distinction between an RCUT, which allows left turns from the major street, and a "basic RCUT", which does not. --Chaswmsday (talk) 17:05, 16 October 2018 (UTC)
 * So, continuing the glass half full/half empty concept, the companion FHWA studies on the MUT (median U-turn, Michigan left) and RCUT both show examples of this intersection variant, the former on page 116, the latter on page 10. Therefore "RCUT" should appear on both pages. However, I will add the caveat discussed here on the Michigan left article so that the Superstreet article can remain the "default" location. And, since I'm adding this to an already wordy trio of sentences illustrating the terms, I'm going to move the whole thing to a new "Terminology" section. Mapsax (talk) 15:53, 18 October 2018 (UTC)

Polish Community
Anyone got anything to say about this?

Crabsoneyes 15:24, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

The section on culture and entertainment should mention POSK. In particular, its theatre and library. I believe the library has one of the largest collections of Polish books outside Poland (?)

Town, city & county question
Hi

I'm foreigner, I live in Hammersmith and since I came to UK I've got always the same problem - what should I write "Town:", "City:" and "County:". Usually I put Hammersmith & London, respectively, but, well, I would like to know how to fill those fields.

Before you start to complain that this is not forum: When I tried to google "hammersmith city town county" wikipedia lands on first place. I assume that there's more people from around the world sometimes confused with british administrive system.

This nifty infotable on the right only provide information about something called "Ceremonial County".

Well, I've added refs for all the "notables", and some images of the genuinely famous ones. That, and sorting them into groups by century does make one thing obvious (see for yourself):

 * 17th: 3
 * 18th: 5
 * 19th: 8
 * 20th: 37

Yes, you spotted it: WP:RECENTISM. I think the list should be restricted to people who are genuinely famous, not just got-three-refs-so-they-must-be-notable minor forgettables. Perhaps we could therefore weed the 20th Century list? And rename the section to "Famous people"? Chiswick Chap (talk) 11:07, 7 March 2016 (UTC)

Mount Stephenson

Mount Stephenson is a mountain in Antarctica. It is located within the central portion of the Douglas Range, standing at the heads of Toynbee Glacier and Sedgwick Glacier 13 km west of George VI Sound, near the east coast of Alexander Island within the British Antarctic Territory. At an elevation of 2987 m, Mount Stephenson is the highest mountain in the Douglas Range and the highest point on Alexander Island. Mount Egbert ranks second, standing at 2,895 m and lies 8 nmi south-southeast of Mount Stephenson.

The mountain was probably first seen in 1909 by the French Antarctic Expedition under Charcot, but not recognized as part of the Douglas Range. It was first surveyed in 1936 by Stephenson, Fleming, and Bertram of the British Graham Land Expedition (BGLE) under Rymill. The east side of the mountain was resurveyed in 1948 by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS) who named the feature for Alfred Stephenson, surveyor and leader of the BGLE party to George VI Sound in 1936. Another landform on Alexander Island happens to be named for Alfred Stephenson, Stephenson Nunatak.

Jane's AH-64D Longbow

AH-64D Longbow is a realistic combat flight simulator of the AH-64D Apache Longbow attack helicopter. Released on June 3, 1996, for the PC, this simulation was developed at Origin Systems. AH-64D Longbow was the second simulator released under the Jane's Combat Simulators line from Electronic Arts.

A mission disk Flash Point: Korea was released as an add-in in 1996, and a compilation pack, Longbow Gold was released in 1997. A sequel, Longbow 2 was released in late 1997. In 1998, Longbow Anthology was released, which included the whole Longbow series.

Gameplay
The game had the most authentic flight model for a helicopter for its time and every aspect of the electronics systems were meticulously detailed. The weapons had realistic operational ranges and limits, and all friendly and enemy units were strictly based on their real-life counterparts. A wingman helps the player, and the player takes on Russian equipment in multiple single missions and campaigns, as well as a handful of historically accurate missions in which it is possible to 're-live' memorable battles.

Flash Point: Korea was released on November 30, 1996. It features a new campaign set in Korea, the addition of the co-pilot position, improved wingman commands and many bug fixes.

Release
Longbow Gold came out in April 1997. It is a compilation pack featuring the AH-64D Longbow and Flash Point: Korea add-ons. It is also fully patched and updated to include a Windows executable, so DOS is no longer necessary. Also included is the 3Dfx update, which adds a Glide renderer.

Longbow Anthology was released in 1998 and is a compilation of Jane's AH-64D Longbow, the mission disk Flash Point: Korea, and Longbow 2 in one box, with an abbreviated manual. All included simulators are fully patched to the latest versions.

A Limited Edition was also released, removing the campaign mode and marketed as a budget title.

Reception
AH-64D Longbow debuted at No. 4 on PC Data's monthly computer game sales chart for June 1996. The game fell to position 14 the following month, before rising back into the top 10 in August and exiting the top 20 in September. In the United States, the game sold 106,423 copies and earned $4.78 million by October 1999. Global shipments of AH-64D Longbow ultimately surpassed 600,000 copies. The Longbow franchise as a whole, including the compilations and Jane's Longbow 2, shipped above 1.2 million units.

The reviewer for Next Generation praised the option to choose from nine different levels of realism, and the game's unique mission design.

Longbow was named the best flight simulator of 1996 by PC Gamer, GameSpot, Computer Gaming World and Computer Games Strategy Plus. CNET Gamecenter and the Computer Game Developers Conference nominated it in their "Best Simulation Game" categories, but these went to NASCAR Racing 2 and MechWarrior 2: Mercenaries, respectively. In 1996, Computer Gaming World ranked it as the 100th best game of all time for being "the first helicopter sim to match its fixed wing counterparts for realistic play". That same year, it was also ranked as the 73rd top game of all time by Next Generation, for being "an unbeatable marriage of graphics, gameplay, and armor-blasting fun".

Flashpoint Korea
The editors of PC Gamer US named Flashpoint Korea 1996's "Best Expansion Pack", and wrote that it "practically makes [Longbow] a whole new game". Flashpoint: Korea was also a finalist for Computer Gaming World's 1996 "Best Enhancement of an Existing Game" award, which ultimately went to Warcraft II: Beyond the Dark Portal.
