Ian Macfarlan

Ian Macfarlan (born John Robert Macfarlan; 21 November 1881 – 19 March 1964) was the Deputy Leader of the Victorian Liberal Party during 1945. He was briefly commissioned as the 35th Premier of Victoria by the Governor and formed a government which brought about the end of the Dunstan Ministry.

MacFarlan was the Member for Brighton from 1928 until 1945 and was Attorney-General and Solicitor-General on 3 occasions, from 26 November 1928 until 11 December 1929 in the government of William McPherson, from 25 July 1934 until 1 April 1935 in the government of Stanley Argyle and from 8 September 1943 until 20 November 1945 in the government of Albert Dunstan.

MacFarlan was a member for the Nationalist Party, which later became the United Australia Party (UAP) in 1931. He became unsatisfied with UAP's strategic inflexibility and left the UAP in 1937 to serve as an Independent Liberal. In 1943, he was persuaded to rejoin the party as deputy to party leader Thomas Hollway. The UAP became the Liberal Party of Australia in 1945.

Early life
Macfarlan was born on 21 November 1881 in North Carlton, Victoria. He was the tenth child born to Scottish immigrants parents Mary (née Nairn) and James McFarlan. He was named "John Robert" but while at university adopted the Scottish Gaelic name "Ian".

Macfarlan attended the state school at Princes Hill and the Melbourne Education Institute. He joined the Victorian Railways as a clerk in 1897, but subsequently won a scholarship to attend the University of Melbourne. He resided at Ormond College and graduating Bachelor of Laws in 1907. Macfarlan served his articles of clerkship with the crown solicitor and was admitted to the Victorian Bar in 1908, following in the footsteps of his older brother James McFarlan who became a Supreme Court judge.

Politics
Macfarlan was elected to the Victorian Legislative Assembly in April 1928 at a by-election for the seat of Brighton, narrowly defeating Eleanor Glencross. A member of the Nationalist Party, he was appointed Attorney-General of Victoria in November 1928 under William McPherson, serving until December 1929. He was elected deputy leader of the Nationalist Party in September 1930, but was replaced by Robert Menzies in June 1932.

In 1935, following the appointment of Country Party leader Albert Dunstan as premier, Macfarlan led a "cross-bench, country-liberal faction of the U.A.P. that advocated conditional negotiation rather than rigid opposition in dealings with Dunstan's minority government".

Premiership
At the end of September 1945, the government of Albert Dunstan was defeated in the Legislative Assembly, when it voted to refuse Supply to his government. Five Liberals, two Country Party members and one Independent voted with the Labor Opposition, on the grounds of dissatisfaction with the government's legislative program and opposition to Dunstan's leadership.

Instead of resigning, however, Dunstan persuaded the Governor, Sir Winston Dugan, to grant him a dissolution of Parliament, conditional on the budget being passed. These terms drew fire from the Opposition who claimed that the Governor in his letter to the Premier had left himself open to the charge of instructing the Assembly to grant Supply to a ministry which had already been refused it and to no other.

When it became clear that the Assembly would not grant Supply to the Dunstan Ministry, the Governor commissioned Macfarlan, who was the Deputy Leader of the Liberal Party, as Premier, on the production of written assurances of support from the Labor Opposition and from members of the Liberal Party, the Country Party and the Independents whose revolt had led to Dunstan's defeat. Macfarlan formed a government, both Houses passed Votes of Supply, and the dissolution took immediate effect.

At the subsequent state election in November, the Labor Party obtained a majority (with the support of two Independents) and formed a government. The state of parties was Labor 32, United Country Party 18, Liberals 13, Independents 2. Macfarlan was one of the defeated candidates.

With a premiership lasting just 50 days, Macfarlan is the shortest serving Liberal Premier of Victoria, and is the second shortest serving Premier of Victoria behind George Elmslie (13 days).

Paul Edinger

Paul Edinger (born January 17, 1978) is an American former gridiron football placekicker. He was drafted by the Chicago Bears in the sixth round of the 2000 NFL Draft. He played college football at Michigan State.

Edinger has also played for the Chicago Bears, Minnesota Vikings, Chicago Rush, and Jacksonville Sharks.

Chicago Bears
Edinger was drafted by the Chicago Bears in the sixth round (174th overall) in the 2000 NFL Draft. He played five seasons with the team and set a personal best with an 83.9 field goal percentage in 2001. He kicked 62.5% in his last year with Chicago and was released. In five seasons with the Bears, Paul Edinger made 110 out of 146 (76.9%) field goals and made all of his 133 extra point attempts.

Minnesota Vikings
Edinger signed with the Minnesota Vikings as a free agent in 2005. His 56-yard game-winning field goal against the Green Bay Packers on October 23, 2005 was the longest ever in Vikings history, tied with Blair Walsh's 56-yard attempt against the Houston Texans in Week 16 of the 2012 season. The kick was also his personal long. This record was broken when Greg Joseph kicked a game-winning 61 yard field goal against the New York Giants in week 16 of the 2022 season. He was not re-signed following the season. In his only season as a Minnesota Viking, Edinger made 25 of 34 (73.5%) field goals and all of his 31 extra point attempts.

Edinger is in a two-way tie for most accurate extra point kicker in NFL history, a perfect 100%.

Chicago Rush
After being out of football since 2005, Edinger signed a three-year contract with the Chicago Rush of the Arena Football League. However, he was released a week later. He was re-signed on June 3, 2008 after the release of Rush kicker Dan Frantz. His next game, he pulled his groin before the game and spent the rest of the season on IR. He played one game for the Rush

Jacksonville Sharks
Edinger signed with the Jacksonville Sharks on January 2, 2010.

Pittsburgh Power
Edinger signed with the Pittsburgh Power on November 1, 2010.

Kicking style
Edinger is known for his unusual "corkscrew" kicking motion:  before the snap he faces backwards in the direction of the opposite side of the field. As the ball is snapped he turns as he steps in a circular pattern toward the ball.

Mountain railways of India

The Mountain railways of India are the railway lines that were built in the mountainous regions of India. The term mainly includes the narrow-gauge and metre-gauge railways in these regions but may also include some broad-gauge railways.

Three of the lines, the Darjeeling Himalayan Railway, the Nilgiri Mountain Railway, and the Kalka–Shimla Railway, are collectively designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site under the name "Mountain Railways of India". Two more, the Matheran Hill Railway and the Kangra Valley Railway, are on the tentative list of UNESCO World Heritage Sites. The Nilgiri Mountain Railway is also the only rack and pinion railway in India.

Mountain railways, such as the Jammu–Baramulla line and the Chota Char Dham Railway, are currently under construction, and others are in the planning stage, such as the Srinagar–Leh line and the Bhanupli–Leh line. All the mountain railways constructed in recent times use broad-gauge.

World Heritage Sites
Three railways, the Darjeeling Himalayan Railway, the Nilgiri Mountain Railway and the Kalka–Shimla Railway are collectively designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site under the name Mountain Railways of India. The Matheran Hill Railway and Kangra Valley Railway are on the tentative list of UNESCO World Heritage Sites. The basis of UNESCO's designation of the Mountain Railways of India as a World Heritage Site is "outstanding examples of bold, ingenious engineering solutions for the problem of establishing an effective rail link through rugged, mountainous terrain." The Darjeeling Himalayan Railway received the honor first in 1999 by UNESCO followed by the Nilgiri Mountain Railway in 2005. The Kalka–Shimla Railway received the designation in 2008. The three routes together have been titled the Mountain Railways of India under UNESCO World Heritage Site criteria ii and iv, within the Asia-Pacific region. The Matheran Hill Railway, a fourth mountain line, has been nominated and is pending approval by the international body.

Darjeeling Himalayan Railway
The Darjeeling Himalayan Railway, with the nickname "the Toy Train," is a 610 mm narrow-gauge railway that links the 88 km between Siliguri and Darjeeling. The latter is a major summer hill station and the centre of a flourishing tea-growing district located in West Bengal. The route is operated by Indian Railways., and its elevation starts at 100 m in Siliguri and rises to about 2200 m at Darjeeling. The highest elevation is at Ghoom station, 2300 m.

The town of Siliguri, the start of the railway route, was connected with Calcutta (now Kolkata) via railway in 1878, while the additional journey to Darjeeling required the use of tongas (horse-driven carts) along a dust track. On the recommendations of a committee appointed by Sir Ashley Eden, work on the route began in 1879 and was completed by July 1881. The line underwent several improvements such as making its gradients more gradual over the years to increase its manoeuvrability. By 1909–1910, the Darjeeling Himalayan Railway was carrying roughly 174,000 passengers and 47,000 tons of goods annually.

Important features incorporated in the line include four loops (spirals) and four 'Z' reverses (zigzags). The introduction of bogie carriages allowed for the replacement of the basic four wheel carriages formerly used for support and stability. In 1897, a major earthquake damaged the railway, requiring rebuilding of the route, including extensive improvements to the track and stations. Further modernization occurred as part of the Northeast Frontier Railway Zone. Most trains on the route are still powered by steam engines, but a modern diesel engine is used for the Darjeeling Mail train. The railway is notable for its signage located at key vantage points, marking locations with titles such as Agony Point and Sensation Corner. Another feature are spirals on steep hills that provide scenic views of the valleys below. In 1999, the Darjeeling line was the first to be recognized by UNESCO and placed on the World Heritage List. A condition of being placed upon the list was that steam locomotives would continue to be used along the route.

Nilgiri Mountain Railway
The Nilgiri Mountain Railway is a 46 km metre gauge single-line railway. It connects the town of Mettupalayam with the hill station of Udagamandalam (Ootacamund). The route is located within the state of Tamil Nadu and travels through the Nilgiri Hills, which are popularly known as the Blue Mountains of Southern India. The Nilgiri is the only rack railway in India, and it uses an Abt rack system. The ABT system requires the use of special steam locomotives. The line contains 208 curves, 16 tunnels, and 250 bridges, causing the uphill journey along the route to take about 290min (4.8h), while the downhill journey takes 215min (3.6h). The Nilgiri Mountain Railway was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in July 2005. Initially, the town of Coonoor was the final station on the line, but in September 1908 it was extended to Fernhill followed by Udagmandalam by October15, 1908. The system was described by Guilford Lindsey Molesworth in a report from 1886:

"Two distinct functions – first that of traction by adhesion as in an ordinary loco; second that of traction by pinions acting on the track bars. The brakes are four in number – two handbrakes, acting by friction; and two acting by preventing the free escape of air from cylinder and thus using compressed air in retarding the progress of the engine. The former are used for shunting while the later for descending steep gradients. One of the handbrakes acts on the tyres of the wheels in the ordinary manner and the second acts on grooved surfaces of the pinion axle, but can be used in those places where the rack is laid."

A unique feature of the line, which is still fully operational, is that its oldest and steepest track uses rack and pinion technology. Currently, the line runs for 7.2 km, up to the foothill station of Kallar, where the rack rail portion begins. The rack rail portion ends at Coonoor railway station. The longest tunnel of this section measures 97 m. The route has a gradient of 1:12.5 up to Coonoor, and past Coonoor to the final station the track has a ruling gradient of 1:23.

Kalka–Shimla Railway
The Kalka–Shimla Railway runs between Kalka and Shimla. The railway is 95.66 km long, and its gauge is narrow. Shimla is the modern capital of Himachal Pradesh and is at an elevation of 2205 meters in the foothills of the Himalayas. It became the summer capital of British India in 1864, and it also served as the headquarters of the British Army in India. Until the railway's construction, the only access to Shimla was by village cartway. The railway line was constructed by the Delhi–Ambala–Kalka Railway Company, beginning in 1898 in the Siwalik Hills, and was completed in 1903. The Kalka–Shimla Railway joined the Nilgiri and Darjeeling lines as a World Heritage Site in 2008.

The Kalka–Shimla Railway has 103 tunnels and 864 bridges. Many of the bridges are multi-arched, reminiscent of Ancient Roman aqueducts, and one bridge, which spans 18.29 m, is made with plate girders and steel trusses. Its ruling gradient is 1:33 or 3%, and it features 919 curves, with the sharpest at 48 degrees (a radius of 37.47 m). The tracks climb from 656 m to a peak elevation of 2076 m at Shimla. The longest tunnel on the line is the Barog Tunnel (No.33), which is 1144 m long, connecting Dagshai and Solan. The loops at Taksal, Gumman, and Dharampur help to attain flatter gradients.

Matheran Hill Railway
The Matheran Hill Railway is a narrow-gauge railway and covers a distance of 21 km between Neral and Matheran, in the Western Ghats. Its construction was led by Abdul Peerbhoy and financed by his father, Sir Adamjee Peerbhoy, of the Adamjee Group. The route was designed in 1900, with construction beginning in 1904 and completed in 1907. The original tracks were built using 30 lb/yd rails but were later updated to 42 lb/yd rails. Until the 1980s, the railway was closed during the monsoon season (because of the increased risk of landslides) but is now open all year. It is administered by Central Railways.

A unique feature of the line is its horseshoe embankments. Notable features of the route include Neral Station, the first on the route; the Herdal Hill section; the steep grade of Bhekra Khud; the One Kiss Tunnel (the only tunnel on the route, which earned its nickname because the tunnel is just long enough to exchange a kiss with one's partner); a water pipe station, which is no longer in operation; Mountain Berry, which features two sharp zigzags; Panorama Point; and finally, the end of the route at Matheran Bazaar. Its ruling gradient is 1:20 (5%), and its tight curves require a speed limit of 20 km/h.

Kangra Valley Railway
The Kangra Valley Railway is narrow-gauge railway and covers a distance of 163 km between Pathankot and Joginder Nagar, an area known for its nature and ancient Hindu shrines, in the sub-Himalayan region. The highest point on this line is at Ahju station at an elevation of 1291 m, and the terminus at Joginder Nagar is at 1189 m.

The line, which is part of the Northern Railway, was planned in May 1926 and commissioned in 1929. The line has 971 uniquely designed bridges and two tunnels. Two particularly important bridge structures are the steel arch bridge over the Reond nalah and the girder bridge over the Banganga River. Though the gradient of the line is generally gentle, the critical reach with steep slopes is at the 142 km stretch, which is 210 m wide and has a slope of 1:19 and approach slopes of 1:31 and 1:25. The terminus stretch between Baijnath and Jogindernagar has a slope of 1:25.

Jammu–Baramulla line
The Jammu–Baramulla line is a railway line being built in India to connect the state of Jammu and Kashmir with the rest of the country. The railway starts from Jammu and will travel to Baramulla. The route crosses major earthquake zones and is subjected to extreme temperatures of cold and heat, as well as inhospitable terrain, making it a challenging engineering project. The railway line has been under construction since 2002, when it was declared a national project. It will link the state's winter capital, Jammu, with the summer capital, Srinagar, and beyond until Baramulla. The railway line has been built from Jammu to Katra, and the line from Katra to Banihal may be completed by 2020.

Proposed railways
The Srinagar–Leh line is a proposed railway line to run from Srinagar station via the town of Kargil to Leh to be operated by Indian Railways. The line was designated a national project on February26, 2013.

The Bhanupli–Leh line is a proposed railway line that is planned to connect Bhanupli in Punjab to Leh in Ladakh region in India. The Bhanupli–Leh line is expected to become the highest railway track in the world by its completion, overtaking the current record of China's Qinghai–Tibet railway.

The Chota Char Dham Railway has two different Y-shaped railways, comprising individual rail lines: the Doiwala–Dehradun–Uttarkashi–Maneri Gangotri Railway, a 131 km route; the Uttarkashi–Palar Yamunotri Railway, a 22 km route with "Y" fork connection at Uttarkashi from the Gangotri railway above; the Karnaprayag–Saikot–Sonprayag Kedarnath Railway, a 99 km route; and Saikot–Joshimath Badrinath Railway, a 75 km with  "Y" fork connection at Saikot from the Kedarnath railway above. The Rishikesh–Karnaprayag Railway, also an under construction, is a new railway link extension from the existing Rishikesh railway station to Karnaprayag of the above system.

The Sivok–Rangpo line is a proposed railway line planned to connect the towns of Sevoke in West Bengal and Rangpo in Sikkim and also link Sikkim with the Indian Railway network. It is planned to be extended to Gangtok and the India-China border in the future.

how to re-write the dates bits so they read better while preserving the links to the wikipedia/May_31 pages ? I haven't read much, so I'm sure it's doable. 1813-05-11 is hard to read/scan.

and write an entry about an obscure Australian explorer onto the May-31 events page dominated by Americanisms ;-)

Veteran Hall
It was the house that was called Veteran Hall, not the 500-acre property! It was a moderately large house for its time but hardly a mansion. It is a myth that it was built with 40 rooms - it was during the army's occupation that 40 rooms were created through subdivision. Do we need a separate article about Veteran Hall?

Spathaky (talk) 19:37, 12 June 2011 (UTC)

Please check date
An unregistered user has recently changed a date in this article: from On 31 May 1813, the party reached the most westerly point of their expedition to On 6 June 1813[...]. Two other edits were made at about this time from the same URL, both of which have been reverted as unhelpful, so this could be insidious vandalism. Please check this date (I don't have the cited reference). Or should we revert it first, and check it later? Verbcatcher (talk) 20:32, 27 November 2015 (UTC)
 * looking through the related articles, i only see the 11th may and 21 days later.
 * if i read through Lawson's journal might reveal more. without something to go on, i'd revert it. Dave Rave (talk) 02:40, 29 November 2015 (UTC)
 * the date is mentioned in 1813 crossing of the Blue Mountains but that would be the six days later return to base camp. Dave Rave (talk) 02:42, 29 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Ideally this should be checked in the cited source . The URL for this edit appears for a school in Melbourne, so the editor may not be the same individual who made the unconstructive edits. It may be an accurate edit, possibly made by a history teacher. I will tag the date with Verbcatcher (talk) 03:31, 29 November 2015 (UTC)
 * as stated, already, it's on the 1813 page, Lawson's journal. I'd be sure it's been read a few thousand times.
 * Lawsons journal, with transcipt
 * Dave Rave (talk) 07:58, 1 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Thanks. It's clear in the transcript that the party arrived on 31 May and returned eastward the next day. We shouldn't rely on primary sources, but this is sufficient to revert a questionable edit. Verbcatcher (talk) 13:45, 1 December 2015 (UTC)
 * However, the transcript indicates that Lawson climed the mountain (presumably Mount Blaxland) on 2 June: "Wednesday Morning 2nd June at Seven oclock proceeded to ascend the Mountain course ½ mile west Reached the Summit at Ten got in our old Track home came Ten miles- Encamped at five oclock". However, the quote "this Country will I have no doubt be a great acquisition to this Colony" is from 31 May. This section needs rewriting, but ideally we shouldn't base it on Lawson's journal, which is a primary source (see WP:PRIMARY). Verbcatcher (talk) 14:03, 1 December 2015 (UTC)

Administrator account security (Correction to Arbcom 2019 special circular)
ArbCom would like to apologise and correct our previous mass message in light of the response from the community.

Since November 2018, six administrator accounts have been compromised and temporarily desysopped. In an effort to help improve account security, our intention was to remind administrators of existing policies on account security — that they are required to "have strong passwords and follow appropriate personal security practices." We have updated our procedures to ensure that we enforce these policies more strictly in the future. The policies themselves have not changed. In particular, two-factor authentication remains an optional means of adding extra security to your account. The choice not to enable 2FA will not be considered when deciding to restore sysop privileges to administrator accounts that were compromised.

We are sorry for the wording of our previous message, which did not accurately convey this, and deeply regret the tone in which it was delivered.

Universal CityWalk

Universal CityWalk is the name shared by the entertainment and retail districts located adjacent to the theme parks of Universal Destinations & Experiences. CityWalk began as an expansion of Universal's first park, Universal Studios Hollywood, and serves as an entrance plaza from the parking lots to the theme parks. CityWalk can also be found at Universal Orlando Resort in Florida, Universal Studios Japan in Osaka, Japan, and Universal Beijing Resort in Beijing, China.

CityWalk Hollywood and CityWalk Orlando have some common tenants, but their respective architectural styles are quite different. Where CityWalk Hollywood incorporates a classic modern blend of Hollywood, CityWalk Orlando is almost entirely modern in appearance.

Universal CityWalk Hollywood
CityWalk is separate from Universal Studios Hollywood although it does serve as an entrance from the parking lot to Universal Studios. Inspiration came from the Horton Plaza according to Jon Jerde, the architecture of CityWalk Hollywood tries to capture the architecture found all over Los Angeles. Universal CityWalk Hollywood is a three-block entertainment, dining, shopping promenade. It has more than 30 eateries, a 19-screen movie theater featuring IMAX, 7 night spots, indoor skydiving and more than 30 stores.

History
Designed by Jon Jerde, CityWalk opened in May 1993 adjacent to the Cineplex Odeon cinema (operated by AMC Theatres since 2006). A $1 billion, 93000 sqft expansion opened in 2000. Planning done by Jerde Associates. Street performers (magicians and musicians) are a common sight.

CityWalk's central plaza is topped by a 170-foot radial trellis designed and built by Pearce Structures (who also constructed Biosphere 2). The courtyard features a leaping fountain, created by WET. A huge television monitor brought in by Panasonic, is located above the multiplex, showing upcoming Universal movie releases, music videos, and NBCUniversal promotions stands next to the giant guitar towering over the Hard Rock Cafe.

In January 2010, the music video for Justin Bieber's song "Baby" was recorded here.

5 Towers
"5 Towers" is an interactive outdoor concert venue on Universal CityWalk, featuring a technologically advanced staging system. The stage is equipped with thousands of LED fixtures, motion capture sensors, five soaring 42-foot light tower sculptures, a massive video monitor, and a state-of-the-art audio system.

The new staging system serves as the structural artistic centerpiece for CityWalk. It features live music.

Universal CityWalk Orlando
The Universal CityWalk in Orlando opened in February 1999 as one component of the expansion that transformed Universal Studios Florida into Universal Orlando Resort. It was built over the former Universal Studios parking lot and entrance. Guests arriving at the resort park in one of two parking garages then travel via covered moving walkways over Universal Boulevard into CityWalk. From there, guests can proceed into either of the theme parks: Universal Studios Florida and Universal Islands of Adventure.

Miura fold

The Miura fold (ミウラ折り) is a method of folding a flat surface such as a sheet of paper into a smaller area. The fold is named for its inventor, Japanese astrophysicist Kōryō Miura.

The crease patterns of the Miura fold form a tessellation of the surface by parallelograms. In one direction, the creases lie along straight lines, with each parallelogram forming the mirror reflection of its neighbor across each crease. In the other direction, the creases zigzag, and each parallelogram is the translation of its neighbor across the crease. Each of the zigzag paths of creases consists solely of mountain folds or of valley folds, with mountains alternating with valleys from one zigzag path to the next. Each of the straight paths of creases alternates between mountain and valley folds. The Miura fold is related to the Kresling fold, the Yoshimura fold and the Hexagonal fold, and can be framed as a generalization of these folds.

The Miura fold is a form of rigid origami, meaning that the fold can be carried out by a continuous motion in which, at each step, each parallelogram is completely flat. This property allows it to be used to fold surfaces made of rigid materials, making it distinct from the Kresling fold and Yoshimura fold which cannot be rigidly folded and require panel deformations to compress to a compact state. For instance, large solar panel arrays for space satellites in the Japanese space program have been Miura folded before launch and then spread out in space. A folded Miura fold can be packed into a compact shape, its thickness reflecting only the thickness of the folded material. Folded material can be unpacked in one motion by pulling on its opposite ends, and likewise folded by pushing the two ends together. In the solar array application, this property reduces the number of motors required to unfold this shape, reducing weight and complexity.

Applications
The 1996 Space Flyer Unit deployed the 2D Array from a Miura folded configuration.

The inflatable membrane structure of the SPROUT satellite is carried into space in the Miura-folded state, and then deployed using inflatable tubes themselves carried into space in the Octagon-folded state.

Other potential applications of this fold include surgical devices such as stents and flat-foldable furniture.

Researchers at the University of Fribourg used the Miura fold to stack hydrogel films, generating electricity similarly to electric eels. The Miura fold is used to cause many parts of the stack to contact each other simultaneously.

A tag has been placed on Jimmy marx, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. PeteShanosky 15:10, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

Talk:List of rivers of New Jersey

Comment
Gjs238, I notice that you have been very busy updating List of New Jersey rivers, and I must say, my hat is off to you! I think it's just great that you're working hard to make this resource better for everyone. You have bitten off a big topic, I think, which might take you a long time unless you have a really good reference on the rivers of New Jersey. And maybe you can use some help, too. If there's anything I can do to help you, I will be glad to join in and help. More about that in a minute...

Maybe its a good time to take a step back and look at the work that has already been done to classify rivers in Wikipedia. One way to see what's out there is to browse by category, and then drill down to the categories of Geography, then in the Category of Rivers, you'll find an article, River, which has a comprehensive list of rivers of the Americas.

By looking at some of the articles on rivers that already exist, you can come up with a good template for articles on rivers (who knew the little state of New Jersey had so many of them!) I think it would be good to put a little introduction in front of the list, and then list the rivers by main rivers and tributaries. I am modeling this after the List of rivers of West Virginia:

This is a list of rivers in the U.S. state of New Jersey.

List of New Jersey rivers includes streams formally designated as rivers. There are also smaller streams (i.e., branches, creeks, drains, forks, licks, runs, etc.) in the state. Exclusive of major tributaries, there are about xx named rivers in New Jersey. Historically, the Delaware, Passaic, and Raratan rivers have provided transportation of goods and people inland from the Atlantic Ocean. Today, these rivers and the streams that feed them provide sport and recreation for many people.

Alphabetically

 * River number one
 * River number two, etc.

By tributary

 * Tributaries are listed in order from highest (most upstream) to lowest.

Delaware River

 * Highest upstream tributary
 * Tributary to the tributary
 * Tributary cubed, etc.
 * Next highest tributary to the Delaware, etc.

Passaic River

 * Tributary one, etc.

Wikilink for River
Nice work shortening the Wikilink! However, not to be a PIA, but the original Wikilink in question led to a redirect page, Rivers, which redirected to River. I changed the link to go directly to River. If I'm still missing your point, please let me know. Thanks :-)    Gjs238 20:35, 25 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Yes, Gjs238, your change was correct, and I noted that in my comment. I changed it again just to illustrate that rivers is a bit shorter than rivers, and generates exactly the same link—rivers and rivers.  Both avoid the redirect.--GraemeMcRaetalk 20:36, 25 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Ah, my misunderstanding :-(  When you said, "The existing "river" wikilink was correct..." I thought you were referring to Rivers.

 * By the way, there are many tributaries on the list now. Do you think that is appropriate for a "rivers" list and if not, how might we define a "river"?  I don't mind moving tributaries to a separate list or a subsection of river list, but how do we decide what waterways to leave on the rivers list?  Have you seen the discussion on Talk:List of rivers in the United States?  Gjs238 21:01, 25 October 2005 (UTC)

 * No, I wasn't watching that page. I will now.  One of the suggestions, which I particularly like, is to classify rivers according to their watershed.  Whether the watershed is serviced by a "river" depends largely on the area of the watershed.  Wikipedians could arrive at a consensus regarding the smallest watershed that still counts as a "river".  This avoids the problem that some tiny streams—too small to even have names, in many cases—empty into oceans.  Its watershed just isn't big enough to make the stream count as a river.  And the problem that a major river might be a tributary of another major river.  Both watersheds may be huge, so both are rivers.--GraemeMcRaetalk 21:29, 25 October 2005 (UTC)

Title change to "List of rivers in New Jersey"
From what I've been noticing (although I couldn't find a clear WP:MOS thing explaining it other than something about adjectives redirecting to nouns), many pages seem to be "List of xxx in some area" rather than "List of some area xxx." Therefore, unless there is strong opposition for some reason, I feel this page should be changed to List of rivers in New Jersey from List of New Jersey rivers. //MrD9 20:28, 12 March 2006 (UTC)

kettle creek?
i believe is a river?

an aside?
I came across this when doing a Random article check and found one of the tributary of a tributary of a tributary articles. I wholeheartedly support the layout discussed above (I have attempted some work on two drainage basins in UK (River Thames and River Medway. I do wonder however if it is strictly necessary to have a separate article on each tiny stream, which appears to be the case? Peter Shearan 05:57, 14 September 2006 (UTC)

 * Although the idea of having Watershed pages is a great one, I think that having an individual article for each river goes along with the New Jersey culture of municipal Home Rule. Personally, I think everyone who has a river run through/near their town should update their river's page with anything they deem informative or interesting.  I did the article on the Cooper, and I think that turned out well.Aufs klo 04:30, 20 December 2006 (UTC)

It is also the last inhabited location before Linda Valley in the West Coast Range - this section of the highway passes through the Wild Rivers National Park. In the past there were a couple of isolated houses along Lyell Highway that have been removed.

Today, Derwent Bridge features not only the bridge alluded to in its name – spanning the Derwent River – but accommodation units, and also a roadside public house.

Derwent Bridge was used as a principal filming location for the 2008 film The Last Confession of Alexander Pearce.

History
Derwent Bridge was gazetted as a locality in 1959.

Derwent Bridge Post Office opened on 15 February 1937 and closed in 1980.

Geography
The Derwent River flows through from north to south. The northern end of Lake King William protrudes into the locality.

Road infrastructure
Route A10 (Lyell Highway) passes through from east to south-west. Route C193 (Lake St Clair Road) starts at an intersection with A10 and runs north-west until it exits.

Don Muhlbach

Donald Lynn Muhlbach Jr. (born August 17, 1981) is an American former football long snapper who played in the National Football League (NFL). At the time of his retirement, he was the oldest active player in the NFL other than Tom Brady. Muhlbach played college football for the Texas A&M Aggies and was signed as an undrafted free agent in 2004 by the Baltimore Ravens before joining the Detroit Lions that same year. He is second in Lions franchise history in games played, only behind former teammate Jason Hanson. Muhlbach was the last remaining active member of the Lions infamous 2008 season, where they went 0–16.

Early life
Muhlbach attended Lufkin High School in Lufkin, Texas. As a senior football player, he was the Lufkin special team's most valuable player, and earned Academic All-District honors.

College career
Muhlbach attended Texas A&M University, where he served as the team's long snapper for the 2003 season. He also saw action at punter as a sophomore during the 2001 season.

Professional career
Muhlbach signed as an undrafted free agent with the Baltimore Ravens on April 30, 2004. He spent the summer and OTAs with the Ravens before being released during training camp on August 30, 2004. On November 10, 2004, the Detroit Lions signed him as a replacement for injured long snapper Jody Littleton. Prior to joining the Lions, he had tried out for the team and the Buffalo Bills and was working at a First Bank and Trust in Lufkin, Texas. Upon his signing, Muhlbach was described as "the Nolan Ryan of long snappers" by then-general manager Matt Millen; Millen was referring to the speed at which the ball is snapped to the holder or punter, with Muhlbach having the quickest snaps of those the team timed.

Early in his Lions career, Muhlbach overcame the adversity brought on by a botched snap against the Minnesota Vikings in a December 20, 2004 game. Holder Nick Harris was unable to cleanly field a bounced snap on a PAT attempt with 8 seconds remaining in the game. The missed PAT and unsuccessful onside kick resulted in the Lions falling in regulation to the Vikings 28–27. Had the PAT been successful, the game likely would have gone to overtime, giving the Lions an opportunity for a win. The Lions' faith in Muhlbach since paid off as he did not botch another snap through 2012.

Muhlbach played in every Lions game since 2005 outside of a single game in 2009 due to a concussion. Following the 2012 season, Muhlbach was named to the 2013 Pro Bowl, the first of his career. He was also the first Lions long snapper to make a Pro Bowl. Since 2015, Muhlbach signed consecutive one-year contracts to stay with the Lions.

Muhlbach was released by the Lions on August 17, 2021, his 40th birthday, after 17 seasons with the team. Following his release, Muhlbach retired from the NFL, and joined the Lions' front office as a special assistant to the team president.

Personal life
Muhlbach is married to Alix Koetting. On August 24, 2012, she gave birth to their first daughter, Addison. His uncle, John Muhlbach, was a center for Ohio State.

Talk:Excipient

Requested move
Excipient → Pharmaceutical excipient – to distinguish information as and to start seperate page called Cosmetic Excipient

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

 * Neutral, but if you move it at least follow the naming conventions and make the second word lower-case. --Angr/undefined 08:24, 13 October 2005 (UTC)

Discussion

 * Add any additional comments

I'm definetly in favor of piping. I.e. excipient (pharmaceutics). Peter Isotalo 14:17, 15 October 2005 (UTC)

 * The redlinks would appear to indicate that this move doesn't require sysop intervention. And, meanwhile, there's nothing impeding the creation of the other article at either Excipient (cosmetics) or Cosmetic excipient. –Hajor 01:04, 18 October 2005 (UTC)

Roy Halee

Roy Decker Halee (born 1934) is an American record producer and engineer, best known for working with Simon & Garfunkel, both as a group and for their solo projects.

Early life
Halee grew up on Long Island, New York. His father, also named Roy Halee, provided the singing voice for Mighty Mouse in late 1940s Terrytoons cartoons, as well as the voices of Heckle and Jeckle from 1951 through 1961. His mother, Rebekah Cauble, was a former stage actress with several Broadway credits.

Career
Halee, who had been studying to be a classical trumpet player, began working as a cameraman for CBS Television in the late 1950s, eventually becoming an audio engineer for Goodson-Todman game shows and the top-rated The $64,000 Question.

As television shows moved to the West Coast, he lost his job in a union dispute and layoff at CBS Television. He went to work at Columbia Records Studio A, first as an editor then later a studio engineer, where his first recording session was for Bob Dylan's 1965 album Highway 61 Revisited, including the first long-format radio single, "Like a Rolling Stone".

In 1964 he first encountered Simon & Garfunkel during their Columbia audition, and he is mentioned in the song "A Simple Desultory Philippic (or How I Was Robert McNamara'd into Submission)" by Paul Simon. In 1965, Halee collaborated with Columbia staff producer Tom Wilson to overdub electric instruments and drums onto the originally-released acoustic version of "The Sound of Silence" without the duo's knowledge, with the remixed version reaching number one on the Billboard singles chart.

Halee's role with Simon and Garfunkel expanded to producer-engineer, with Halee producing several albums with the duo. Halee discovered that the uniqueness of Simon & Garfunkel's vocal harmonies could only be achieved by recording both voices on the same microphone at the same time. The song "Mrs. Robinson", from the 1968 album The Graduate, won him a Grammy Award. Three more Grammy Awards followed for his work on the album Bookends, and the song "Bridge Over Troubled Water" in 1970. After Simon & Garfunkel split up, Halee co-produced Simon's first solo album and its follow-up, There Goes Rhymin' Simon.

Halee also worked with the Lovin' Spoonful, the Dave Clark Five and the Yardbirds, as well as Barbra Streisand, the Byrds, Journey (on their first album Journey), Willie Nile, Laura Nyro, Blood, Sweat & Tears, Mark-Almond Band, Rufus and Blue Angel. After working at Columbia studios in New York and Los Angeles, Halee established Columbia's San Francisco recording studio. In 1975 he left those studios for ABC Recording Studios, where he worked with new acts and established ABC artists as producer, engineer or both. His first project was the Mark-Almond Band.

In 1985, Halee went with Paul Simon to South Africa to record something new that, he said, "wasn't written yet, we were going with nothing, so it was a gamble. A lot of people thought we were nuts." It led to the Grammy Award-winning album Graceland. "I was having a ball recording these guys. For a guy from my background, everything was so organised generally. Here in the rawness of this, the earthiness, I was in seventh heaven." After Graceland, Roy Halee continued travelling with Simon as an engineer, to Brazil and West Africa, for the album The Rhythm of the Saints, with "all congas, bass drums, bata...everything imaginable." He has continued working with Simon.

In 2001, Halee was named to the TEC Awards Hall of Fame.

Personal life
Halee married his wife Katherine in 1970. Together they have three children.
