Talk:Extended Resolution Compact Disc

Untitled
Em, anon user 194.89.XXX claims to remove garbage but instead add plenty of garbage of his/her own. Owing to the difficulty in understanding some of his/her phrasing ("the purest form of SACD") as well as the obvious factual disparities ("analogue"; "unlike HDCD, XRCD refers purely to the optimal quantization of the source materials" - which is precisely what HDCD does), I have restored much of the article. My advice is if you want to change something, please check out the accuracy via some form of online research. Pls don't introduce vulgarities in the edit summary, especially when one's contributions are considerably worse off than previous editors'. Mandel 08:04, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

My first edits were somewhat hasty, which I admit, but now I think that the article is extremely well-off. Before my edits, it not only had what I perceive as layman's *opinions* but also a multitude of factual errors. If something is run through a digital-to-analogue converter, the resulting material definitely isn't going to be digital. This claim was what lead me to believe that there is only a slightly poor phrasing there, so I thought I'd correct it quickly. After a while, however, I noticed that there was a LOT to be corrected with the article. Regarding your "precisely what HDCD does" bit, that's not true at all - there is a lot of matters at work with HDCDs. The stream has extra control information studded in the least significant bits and a HDCD decoder will react to it, providing improved dynamics or whatever the mastering engineer has deemed a passage to need. An XRCD on the other hand DOES NOT have any special control information or the like. It will be EXACTLY a regular CD, albeit done as well as possible. Of course, a HDCD will also be according to redbook standard, but its least significant bits will be used for the control data instead of audio quality. I'm trying to understand why you keep reverting when I'm clearly trying to improve the article. Let's work this through. 194.89.2.126 11:12, 15 October 2005 (UTC)

"Still, XRCDs are optimally the very best the Compact Disc can offer" ... Isn't this a bit of a tautology? Optimally, any CD is the best CD can be. That's what optimal means. --68.41.122.213 11:26, 15 December 2005 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:XRCD.jpg
Image:XRCD.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

It is not format
XRCD is not an technical format; it is a recording process. i think that this articel must be removed or moved to another section. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.163.43.108 (talk) 11:59, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Agree 100% and came here to say the same. This shouldn't be listed as a format. 2.25.126.224 (talk) 20:49, 15 February 2012 (UTC)

Audiophile talk
Somebody please note that this article is written from an audiophile's point of view. Somebody should say that this JVC process itself is much more expensive than necessary. The fact that you paid $10,000,000,000 for audio hardware by itself does not mean that the output is better than from a $1000 worth equipment.

The medium where the digitized data is stored (magneto-optical) has no influence to sound quality. Any flash thumb drive could be used. The extremely precise production of the final medium (compact disc) is overkill if a regular compact disc can yeald perfect copy. If this were not the case, no computer programs could be run from CDs. There is no reason why a DAC should synchronize its clock to the data medium. Just get a low jitter clock and play any source at "Rubidium quality".

I am not very knowledgeable about audio jitter, but something tells me that once the ADC has produced jittery result no digital processing can reduce it. What do experts have to say about this matter? -- J7N —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.99.184.75 (talk) 13:26, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I agree that it's quite unlikely this actually did anything useful. That said, there's a big difference between CD-ROM and Compact Disc Digital Audio. CD-ROMs (well mode 1 which is what you're likely to find for normal data storage), use far more of the CD for error detection and correction and a header, only 2048 bytes per sector is actual data. CD-DA uses 2352 bytes. There's also a big difference between how they tend to be handled. If an error is detected on a CD-ROM and it can't be corrected with the ECC, it will normally be re-read until it's okay or the drive will report an error. Most CD players just read the drive at 1x speed. If there's an error, a fancier player will interpolate, a dumber player will just play it anyway. The much lower level of ECC and the greater difficulty seeking means even if you want to, it's actually far less effective to try again. Even with CD-ROM drives, their actual support for trying to properly read the data using what was on the CD was often limited, hence why tools like Exact Audio Copy arose. That said, the error rate tends to be fairly low, and errors are most likely to arise because of damaged (scratched etc) or dirty CDs, it's quite unlikely better glass masters will make any difference. But still anyone who was trying to read CDs especially in the late 1990s with a CD-ROM drive would know from comparing reads with tools like EAC, that it can easily be far from bit perfect each time. BTW, as for jitter, again I have strong doubts that the techniques actually did anything useful, but as I understand it, there are two forms of jitter which may be referred to and I didn't bother to read to understand what they're trying to say. One issue is sampling jitter, relating to the mastering of the audio (well or playback which you have no control over) Jitter [//hydrogenaud.io/index.php/topic,109948.25.html], the other is read jitter Jitter [//www.xiph.org/paranoia/faq.html], relating to what I said earlier namely CDs lack the header information so you can't easily seek to an exact sector. There is a lot of misinformation and misleading claims about the evils of jitter, including the belief that playback jitter can be influenced by the accuracy of the CD master which AFAIK is almost definitely not correct, and in fact a lot of people talking about this don't even understand jitter or digital audio or CD-DA. ([//www.digido.com/ufaqs/jitter-on-cd/] has a somewhat okay overview, the author isn't an expert on digital audio but I think they do have reasonable knowledge and they do mention it's mostly theory. Then see [//hydrogenaud.io/index.php/topic,6907.50.html] which seem to explain why even in theory it's unlikely, maybe also [//hydrogenaud.io/index.php/topic,9255.25.html] and [//hydrogenaud.io/index.php/topic,65004.50.html] and [//hydrogenaud.io/index.php/topic,72446.125.html].) But I believe it is possible that jitter during mastering of the audio (I mean the ADC etc for getting the audio into digital, not the glass master) especially from 1980s equipment could cause issues. See e.g. [//hydrogenaud.io/index.php/topic,71934.0.html]. (Because of the misinfo, I've restricted my links to places where such nonsense isn't tolerated.) Likewise some seem to think that seek jitter could be affected by the quality of the master, but I'm pretty sure that it's not very likely and more importantly it's only likely to matter when you need to seek to re-read something. I mean maybe really really crap CD players from the 1980s would have problems if they had absolutely no buffer so taking slightly too long to read a sector could cause issues, but I think that was very rare or non existant Nil Einne (talk) 18:26, 18 January 2019 (UTC)

HMS Rawalpindi

HMS Rawalpindi was a British armed merchant cruiser (a converted ocean liner employed as a convoy escort, as a patrol vessel, or to enforce a blockade) that was sunk in a surface action against the German battleships GERMAN BATTLESHIP Scharnhorst and GERMAN BATTLESHIP Gneisenau during the first months of the Second World War. Her captain was Edward Kennedy.

Merchant service
The ship started life as the Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company (P&O) ocean liner Rawalpindi, built by Harland and Wolff. She was launched on 26 March 1925 by Lady Birkenhead, the wife of F. E. Smith, 1st Earl of Birkenhead, and joined the P&O fleet in September of the same year. She was named after the city of Rawalpindi, a British garrison town in what is now Pakistan. She had berths for 307 First Class and 288 Second Class passengers, and was employed on the London to Bombay service.

Naval service
The Admiralty requisitioned Rawalpindi on 26 August 1939 and had her converted into an armed merchant cruiser by the addition of eight elderly 6 in (150 mm) guns and two 3 in (76 mm) guns. She was set to work from October 1939 in the Northern Patrol covering the area around Iceland. On 19 October in the Denmark Strait, Rawalpindi intercepted the German tanker Gonzenheim (4,574 grt), which had left Buenos Aires on 14 September. The tanker was scuttled by her crew before a boarding party could get on board.

Sinking
While patrolling north of the Faroe Islands on 23 November 1939, she was detected at 16:07 by the German battleship Scharnhorst who was assigned together with her sister ship Gneisenau to attack the Northern Patrol. The German ship closed in on Rawalpindi and half an hour later signalled several times 'Stop! What ship?'. Rawalpindi answered with the signal 'F-A-M', altered course and started to lay smoke.

Despite being hopelessly outgunned, 60-year-old Captain Edward Kennedy RN of Rawalpindi decided to fight. He was heard to say "We'll fight them both, they'll sink us, and that will be that. Good-bye".

At 17:03 Scharnhorst opened fire at a distance of 7.5 kilometers. and Rawalpindi immediately returned fire. Three minutes later Rawalpindi was hit and started to burn fiercely. Rawalpindi managed to score one hit on the aft deck of Scharnhorst, which caused minor splinter damage. At 17:11 Gneisenau joined the fight and opened fire, but five minutes later the German commander ordered to cease fire as Rawalpindi signals 'Please send boats'. Both German ships started to pick up survivors but at 19:15 German lookouts spotted another ship in the darkness and gave alarm. The German ships retreated northwards as the British cruiser HMS Newcastle (C76) arrived on the scene. During the battle Rawalpindi managed to broadcast two signals to the British admiralty. The first signal mentioned she had sighted a battlecruiser, the second mentioned she was attacked by the heavy cruiser Deutschland.

238 men died on Rawalpindi, including Captain Kennedy. Thirty-seven men were rescued by the German ships, a further 11 were picked up by HMS Chitral (another converted passenger ship). Captain Kennedy—the father of naval officer, broadcaster and author Ludovic Kennedy—was posthumously Mentioned in Dispatches. Crew members on Scharnhorst and Gneisenau were eligible for the High Seas Fleet Badge for participating in the sinking of Rawalpindi.

Sister ships
Rawalpindi was one of the P&O "R"-class liners from 1925 that had had much of their interiors designed by Lord Inchcape's daughter Elsie Mackay. Her sister ships SS Ranchi, SS Ranpura and SS Rajputana were also converted into armed merchant cruisers. Rajputana was torpedoed and sunk by the GERMAN SUBMARINE U-108 in the Denmark Strait on 13 April 1941.

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Jkk. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Jkk~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Thank you.
Hey there. Thank you for reverting the vandalism to my talk user page. Oh, and BTW, in response to one of your edits summaries, specifically: "(Reverted to revision 257073945 by UntilItSleeps PublicPC; rv vandalism (but is this a good version?). using TW)", yes, it is a good version.

Speedy deletion of Tony Xu
Hi,

You put a notice onto User_talk:Shufly regarding Speedy deletion of Tony Xu, but there was no tag on the actual page to get it deleted.

I've just tagged it.

Thought I'd let you know in case there's some problem with auto software you're using.

Cheers,

American rock band "Tool"
Hello,

I have re-contributed my previous contributions which you reverted because I find them to be valid.

Another example of what I did on the Tool page can be found on the Rolling Stone page, so I think my changes are justified. =)

Thanks! --Nidht (talk) 16:08, 15 September 2009 (UTC)

Hello Canthusus. I recently did | this. It was not my intention at all. I wanted to add a second warning (which is why I used level 2). Somehow Twinkle pasted my warning over yours instead of below it. I then thought to go | here and copy and paste to the user's talk page, but didn't want to be discourteous. Therefore, this message. If you feel it necessary, you may re-add your message.  Thatguyflint  undefined 22:15, 27 November 2009 (UTC)

Do you really know so much about KOBRA (roller coaster) to continually put on the deletion tag and tell me not to remove it? I don't think so. So stop being such a contrary little bullcrap and leave the articles alone.

Vandalism
I saw the entry "OI U, BUT ARE U GONNA BANG DOEE?!" as constituting vandalism, inasmuch as it appears on its face to be "the addition of obscenities or crude humor [or] the insertion of nonsense."

Talk:Jihad Verses of Islam

This article has been kept for now following this AFD debate. Note however that the AFD debate suggested transwikiing parts to Wikiquote, and merging other parts, and the one "outright" keep-vote wanted a rewrite. The "keep" result is just to say that there was no consensus to delete; something should certainly be done with this article, that might involve rewriting it, merging it or transwikiing parts of it.

San Gorgonio Wilderness

The San Gorgonio Wilderness is located in the eastern San Bernardino Mountains, in San Bernardino County and into northern Riverside County, Southern California.

It begins north of San Gorgonio Pass, approximately 2 mi west of Morongo Valley and 10 mi northwest of Palm Springs, California.

Geography
The wilderness is part of the eastern slope of the San Bernardino Mountains, with topography rapidly changing from low, rolling foothills and canyons to steep, rugged mountains. These mountains include Mount San Gorgonio and several other peaks over 10000 ft. Elevations range from 2300 to 11502 ft. Because of this elevation gradient, the wilderness reflects a transition between desert, coastal and mountain environments, including the different types of vegetation representative of each elevation.

The United States Congress designated the San Gorgonio Wilderness in 1964. By 1984, it expanded to 23720 acres. In 1994, it was further expanded with additional BLM lands and it now has a total of 94702 acre.

Sand to Snow National Monument
The San Gorgonio Wilderness is now within the Sand to Snow National Monument, established by President Obama in February 2016. It is managed jointly by the San Bernardino National Forest and the Bureau of Land Management.

Tempest Anderson

Tempest Anderson (7 December 1846 – 26 August 1913) was an ophthalmic surgeon at York County Hospital in the United Kingdom, and an expert amateur photographer and volcanologist. He was a member of the Royal Society Commission which was appointed to investigate the aftermath of the eruptions of La Soufrière volcano, St Vincent and Mont Pelée, Martinique, West Indies which both erupted in May 1902. Some of his photographs of these eruptions were subsequently published in his book, Volcanic Studies in Many Lands.

Early life and education
He was born in York, was schooled at St Peter's School, York, and studied medicine at the University of London. His father was William Charles Anderson, surgeon and Sheriff of York. His sister Constance married Percy Sladen, and his brother was Yarborough Anderson, a barrister. In 1904 Anderson received an honorary degree of DSc from the University of Leeds for his work on volcanoes.

Anderson lived at the family home of 17 Stonegate in the centre of York, and at 23 Stonegate, which is now the home to the York Medical Society. He built a pair of houses on the road now known as Moorgate, on land purchased from the Holgate Garden Society. In 1911 Anderson was made one of the vice-presidents of the Old Peterite Club at St Peter's School, York.

Death and legacy
He was one of the five original Trustees of the Percy Sladen Memorial Trust. He was President of the Yorkshire Philosophical Society, and in 1912 he presented the society with a 300-seat lecture theatre (the Tempest Anderson Hall) attached to the Yorkshire Museum in York Museum Gardens. This was one of the world's first concrete buildings. He died on board ship on the Red Sea while returning from visiting the volcanoes of Indonesia and the Philippines. He was buried in Suez, Egypt. After his death, the houses he had built were left to his cousin, Colonel Fearnley Anderson.. He also bequeathed a substantial sum to the Yorkshire Museum. He held Telephone Number "1" in the first York Telephone Directory in 1891, published by the "National Telephone Company".

Mexico, Guatemala and the West Indies
Tempest Anderson spent nine months in Mexico, Guatemala and the West Indies in 1906/1907. He travelled to Mexico to attend the 10th Congres Geologique International before sailing by mail steamer to Guatemala to study the effects of the 1902 earthquake. During the trip he observed and photographed Cerro Quemado, Santa Maria, and Atitlan. During this trip he collected first hand accounts of the 1902 eruption of the Santa Maria and the immediate aftermath. Captain Saunders of the Pacific Mail Steamer S.S. Newport observed the eruption cloud which rose to a great height. The Captain measured it using a sextant and recorded it as reaching 17 to 18 miles. The sounds accompanying the eruption were loud and were heard even louder at more distant places than close to the mountain. The eruption was heard as far away as Guatemala City, the noises so strong, they were assumed to come from neighbouring volcanoes.

Hey there. Just saw your last response on the VFU. Texture means well, he was just fooling around, Mahlerfan. He's trying to illustrate a point about an issue that has been a central question for Wikipedia and Wikipedians for a very long time—what should we allow to be included in this noble project of ours? Articles on anything and everything? There are some of us who believe that's the way to go—simply don't delete anything at all except perhaps vandalism. There are others who believe that an encyclopedia is not a receptacle for every concievable bit of data—there should be standards. Creating standards everyone agrees upon is hard to do, unfortunately, as is apparent from our history over the past 5000 years or so. At the moment, the core articlespace policies (WP:V, WP:NOR, WP:NPOV)seem adequate, but speaking personally I sometimes wonder if there is a less understood group of policies on WP. What Texture was trying to say is really that a minimalist interpretation of WP:V doesn't work, because it is possible today to provide some type of "verification" for the trivialest things in our lives (such as, famously, Texture's left shoe). If you'd like to stay and learn more (and I hope you do:) ), read the above links first, then WP:GAFD.It may help to understand what folks look for in an article. Finally your comment about the seeming unfairness of one Survivor article geting "voted off" whereas apparently less notable one stay is very understandable. I share in that frustration sometimes. The thing is, WP is now a megastructure of 750,000 individual articles. Many, perhaps most, are likely of poor standard (only 0.7% of WP articles currently hold the "Featured article" status, a mark of quality for WP). But it is impossible to coordinate which things in a particular subject deserve a place and which need to be deleted; for this reason all articles on WP are judged only on their own merits when they are nominated for deletion. Hope this helps. enceph  alon  21:29, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

Re: Dick Bavetta--1998 NBA Finals
Sorry, I have to disagree with you on this point. There are missed calls all the time in sports...nothing is perfect. I don't believe this call is significant enough to include in the Dick Bavetta article since the call occurred in the first half of the game and the Jazz still had every opportunity to win the game. It was merely coincidence it was a one point difference. I just don't believe this meets WP:Notability criteria, sorry. I'm sure you could list every call a referee misses, but that doesn't make it notable. Since this came from a Rocky Mountain paper, there may be bias involved as well, which violates WP:NPOV. RyguyMN 22:14, 14 August 2007 (UTC)
 * If anything, I think the Jordan alleged push off at the end of the game is more controversial and notable than anything else about this game. RyguyMN 05:04, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

Especially when the earliest version of the article rambles stuff about Windows Vista and stuff. Even if this is completely unrelated to those, this stuff is not yet notable unless they have an actual release out, or some show of an active development community (which is to say a website up, even preliminary, and publicly viewable CVS/etc repository which shows they have bazillion lines of code and new hyuuge commits coming in every week). As it stands, this is completely, utterly unverifiable. Plus I find absolutely nothing on google about the author either. --Wwwwolf 11:07, 13 October 2005 (UTC)

Communist Party of the Soviet Union (1992)

The Communist Party of the Soviet Union (Коммунистическая Партия Советского Союза, Kommunisticheskaya Partiya Sovetskogo Soyuza; short: КПСС, KPSS) is a political party led by Sergei Skvortsov operating in the countries of the former Soviet Union. The party was founded in 1992 at the so-called 29th Congress of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, which among other actions excluded former President Mikhail Gorbachev from the newly formed party. It claims to be the inheritors of the legacy of the original Soviet Communist Party and among its goals states the restoration of the Soviet Union. The party has launched several front groups, such as the All-Russian Committee for Defence of Kuriles, the Movement for Social Justice and the Inter-Regional Strike Committee. The central publication of the party is Narodnaya Gazeta (Народная Газета, People's Newspaper). Skvortsov operates as the First Secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union as well as the editor-in-chief of the publication.

Signal instrument

A signal instrument is a musical instrument which is not only used for music as such, but also fit to give sound signals as a form of auditive communication, usually in the open air. Signal instruments are often contrasted with melodic and diatonic or chromatic instruments ("a musical (rather than signal) instrument" is not uncommon phrasing). To make the message audible at a distance, percussion and brass instruments, which are generally loud, are chiefly used for this purpose. There are contemporary instruments which evolved from signal instruments, such as the natural horn evolving to the trumpet.

"The oldest musical signaling instrument is the drum. Signal drums are still used in parts of Africa, although more as a kind of newspaper than military device...The African [slit] drum does not communicate by rhythm or beat, but rather by tone [relative pitch and/or timbre]...As early as 500 BCE, the Persians used kettle drums both to control cavalry formation and frighten their enemies. [In Europe,] The snare drum was the standard battlefield infantry communications device from the 1700s until well into the 1860s...Trumpets, horns, and drums were used in ancient Greek and Roman armies and navies...By the reign of Alexander the Great (336-323 BCE), trumpets and fifes...were used to control the phalanx of his army. Perhaps the earliest recorded use of specific signals via musical tones were...used by Genghis Khan's Mongol cavalry in the late twelfth and early thirteenth centuries...Trumpets (most often modified into a more compact bugle) are undoubtedly the longest-used military musical signal instrument."

Environment
"People on various occasions and in various places have developed sound signals in order to avoid having to send messengers from one side of a valley to the other. For a musical instrument to be used as a message-sending device, it needs to have a certain sound quality and volume that can be heard over a long distance. Especially in Melanesia and in Africa drums are used for that purpose. In Melanesia, besides the drum, conch shell play a similar role, but to a lesser extent."

Before the introduction of modern technological communication, signaling over a distance was often a very good way to pass messages, especially in difficult terrain such as the mountains (e.g. Alpine horn, equivalents are still used in parts of the Himalaya) or sparsely populated plains or forests (the tam-tam type of drums as with American Indians and jungle drums), sometimes using rather elaborate code systems to pass even complex information.

Another ancient function, which has survived into modern urban life is to assemble or warn a whole population or congregation at large, usually not coded or just for a few common cases, as with a conch or bells in a church or belfry: a variation for more local use is the gong.

Many types, especially the older ones, have also survived for ceremonial use, as in religion (often conservative in its forms) or gong ceremony.

Hunting
While the types mentioned above are mainly used from one spot, signal instruments may also be useful to communicate on the move, when many alternatives were less practical. Naturally then instruments are preferred which are not too delicate to be moved, and often not too heavy (except when the musician is mounted or in a vehicle) to transport, or even better be played during march or even chase. Thus hunters traditionally use a hunting-horn to communicate, while drums (often just improvised 'percussion') were rather by drivers while shouting. When the social elite practiced hunting as a prestigious outdoors social activity, music was often present at any stage, e.g. the court of Versailles had composers such as the Danican family and Philidor write special symphonies for a court orchestra to accompany the royal hunt party, prominently featuring percussion and winds but also including non-signal instruments, even strings.

Military, paramilitary and other uniformed services
In the (para)military and similar, mainly uniformed, corps such as police, the tradition of march music stems from the use of signal instruments, mainly metal winds (as the modern bugle and clarion ), originally (and still) to pass standardized orders (often at a small tactical level), while percussion and flutes served mainly to march on the beat; especially when a larger force is gathered with ceremony (just drums often do, as in ruffles and flourishes or accompanying formal administration of corporal punishment), both can be combined into a band.

If you have not created this media yourself then there needs to be an argument why we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then it needs to be specified where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the GFDL-self tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, consider reading fair use, and then use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags.

Image:Flagstaff-Gardens-Melbourne.JPG
Hi. When you uploaded Image:Flagstaff-Gardens-Melbourne.JPG, you did not specify complete source and copyright information. Another user subsequently tagged it with GFDL-presumed and, for some time, it has existed on Wikipedia under the assumption that you created the image and you agreed to license it under the GFDL. This assumption, however well-meaning, is not legally sufficient and the tag is being phased out. Images using it are being deleted.

This image has been tagged for deletion and will be deleted in one week if adequate copyright information is not provided.

If you, personally, are the author of this content, meaning that you took the photograph yourself or you created the chart yourself (and it does not use any clipart that you did not create), please retag the image with a free image copyright tag that correctly describes your licensing intentions, usually GFDL-self or PD-self. Please also make sure if you have not already done so that you write a good description of what the image depicts, when you took the photo, and other important details. This will allow Wikipedia to continue using the image.

If you did not create the image or if it is derived from the copyrighted works of others, please keep in mind that most images on the internet are copyrighted and are not suitable for use on Wikipedia. Wikipedia respects the copyrights of others and does not use images unless we know that they have been freely licensed. Any creative work is automatically copyrighted, even if it lacks a copyright notice. Unless the copyright holder has specifically disclaimed their rights to the image and released it under the GFDL or another compatible license, we cannot use it. If you did not create the image, and cannot make the image compliant with Non-free content, simply do nothing and it will be deleted in a week. All other non-free images must follow these rules.

Palmetto (film)

Palmetto is a 1998 neo-noir thriller film directed by Volker Schlöndorff (as Volker Schlondorff) with a screenplay by E. Max Frye. It is based on the 1961 novel Just Another Sucker by James Hadley Chase. The film stars Woody Harrelson, Elisabeth Shue and Gina Gershon.

Plot
Harry Barber is serving time in prison after being framed in a corruption scandal.

Before his arrest, he was a reporter for a Florida newspaper that uncovered widespread corruption in the local government. After rejecting a bribe that would have ensured his silence, Harry finds the funds deposited into his bank account and he is promptly arrested. Now, two years later, he is released when an ex-cop's testimony vindicates him.

Though he is bitter against the town officials, Harry wanders back to Palmetto with his girlfriend Nina, who has been patiently waiting for him. Unable to find a job, he spends his days lounging in a local bar. In walks Rhea Malroux, the very attractive femme, wife of the richest man in town, who offers him a job: help her and her daughter Odette scam the old man out of $500,000 with a bogus kidnapping scheme, in which Harry would receive a ten percent cut.

Tempted by both Rhea's seductive charms and the prospect of some quick cash, Harry goes along with the plan. First, he goes over to the Malroux mansion to check that his facts are in order, about who Rhea actually is. Then he agrees to meet with Rhea in private to iron out the details. And lastly, he asks to take a meeting with Odette, to make sure she is actually in on the plan. After all of these things seem to check out, Harry agrees.

When Odette goes missing, (the plan is that she will stay out of town for a few days, until her father pays the money,) the story gets leaked to the police. The police then come to Harry, looking to offer him a job. His brother in law is a top detective, and knowing that Harry used to write for the paper, he believes Harry would be good at keeping the press informed, but also keeping them off the backs of the detectives who are working the case. So now Harry is part of the kidnapping, but he's also part of the police investigative team.

When Harry shows up to his bungalow to find Odette dead one day, he realizes he's in a lot of trouble. He uses a tape recording he made, when ironing out the terms of the deal with Rhea Malroux to blackmail her. And so she sends her boyfriend to dispose of Odette's body. But then the real Odette turns up in Harry's bungalow, also dead, and things get even worse. This time, the police find out about it.

That leads to Harry working with the police to catch Rhea Malroux and her boyfriend. Harry goes to see Rhea's husband and tell him everything. He learns that the woman pretending to be Rhea is not this man's actual wife. Instead, she is the gardener. She and her boyfriend, Donnelly take Harry from the Malroux home to a garage, where they are also holding Nina. They plan to kill both of them by dipping them in a barrel of acid, but Harry is wearing a wire and the police arrive. Donnelly falls into the barrel of acid and the woman pretending to be Rhea Malroux is arrested.

However, Harry is also arrested for the original conspiracy to kidnap, despite the fact he set up the real criminals. He does a short stint in prison where he writes a novel based on his experiences, which he hopes will be made into a movie.

Cast

 * Woody Harrelson as Harry Barber
 * Elisabeth Shue as Mrs. Donnelly/Rhea Malroux
 * Gina Gershon as Nina
 * Rolf Hoppe as Felix Malroux
 * Michael Rapaport as Donnelly
 * Chloë Sevigny as Odette
 * Tom Wright as John Renick
 * Marc Macaulay as Miles Meadows
 * Joe Hickey as Lawyer
 * Ralph Wilcox as Judge
 * Peter Paul DeLeo as Bartender
 * Richard Booker as Billy Holden

Reception
Roger Ebert gave the film 2 out of 4 stars, praising Harrelson's acting and some of the storyline, but criticising the directing, script, and Shue's casting, concluding that "Palmetto knows the words, but not the music".

Reviewing the film in the New York Times, Stephen Holden praised the Harrelson's casting and the filming, but criticised the plotline for losing direction and "becoming a shrill, comic self-parody...[that] begins to reel from its own desperate desire to be surprising".

In the Washington Post, Stephen Hunter praised the film's beginning, but felt that "quickly enough the movie gets lost in the tendrils of its own seemingly dense but actually stupid plot". In the same newspaper, Desson Howe felt the film "isn't so bad you'd want to roast it over the coals, but it ain't much good either".

The film holds a 39% rating on review site Rotten Tomatoes, based on 36 reviews.

Kamikitachō Station

Kamikitachō Station (上北町駅) is a railway station in the town of Tōhoku in Aomori Prefecture, Japan, operated by the third sector railway operator Aoimori Railway Company.

Location
Kamikitachō Station is served by the Aoimori Railway Line, and is 57.4 kilometers from the terminus of the line at Aomori Station. It is 674.7 kilometers from Tokyo Station.

Surrounding area

 * Lake Ogawara
 * Kamikita Post Office

Station layout
Kamikitachō Station has one side platform and one island platform serving three tracks, connected to a single-story station building by a footbridge. Only the outer tracks 1 and 3 are in regular operation. The station is staffed.

History
Kamikitachō Station was opened on 1 September 1891 as Numazaki Station (沼崎駅) on the Nippon Railway. It became a station on the Tōhoku Main Line of the Japanese Government Railways (JGR), the pre-war predecessor to the Japan National Railway (JNR), on 1 July 1906. On 1 October 1959, the station was renamed to its present name. With the privatization of the JNR on 1 April 1987, it came under the operational control of East Japan Railway Company (JR East).

On 4 December 2010, the Tōhoku Shinkansen was successfully extended north to Shin-Aomori Station from Hachinohe. As a result of the opening of the bullet train between the two stations, that section of the Tōhoku Main Line including this station was transferred to the Aoimori Railway Company from JR East on the same day.

Services
Kamikitachō Station is primarily served by trains operating on a local service on the Aoimori Railway Line between Aomori and Hachinohe. It is served by two rapid express trains, the Shimokita service operated jointly by JR East and the Aoimori Railway between Hachinohe and Ōminato and the 560M train operated jointly by the Aoimori Railway and the Iwate Galaxy Railway between Aomori and Morioka. Passenger trains serve Kamikitachō Station just over 17 hours a day from 6:12am to 11:23pm. In 2018, a daily average of 554 passengers boarded trains at Kamikitachō Station, an increase from the daily average of 213 passengers the station served in 2010, the final year of its ownership by JR East. In 2018, the station was the tenth busiest on the Aoimori Railway Line, excluding Aomori and Hachinohe stations, and the busiest along the rail line in the town of Tōhoku.

Christopher Lee (Malaysian actor)

Christopher Lee Meng Soon (born 23 July 1971) is a Malaysian actor, host and businessman, known for starring in many Chinese-language television dramas and films in Singapore, Taiwan and mainland China. At the age of 26, Lee rose to prominence after winning the Star Awards for Best Actor for his role in The Price of Peace, becoming the youngest ever recipient of the award.

A permanent resident of Singapore, Lee is widely regarded as an "Ah-Ge" (阿哥, "big brother") of Caldecott Hill for being one of the most successful actors in Singapore's Chinese-language entertainment industry. He is the only Singapore-based actor to have won multiple Best Actor accolades at both Singapore's Star Awards and Taiwan's Golden Bell Awards.

Early life
Lee studied up to Form 5 in Sekolah Menengah Seri Kota, Air Leleh, Malacca, Malaysia. He was an active student in school, serving as a prefect and representing his school in rugby competitions. He has an older sister and two younger brothers, the youngest being Frederick Lee Meng Chong, who is also an actor and model in Malaysia.

Career
Lee joined TCS on a contract in 1995 after emerging as 1st runner-up in the male category of the Star Search programme in 1995. He worked as a factory worker, salesman and part-time model before joining star search in 1995. Lee first started acting in Chinese-language television dramas produced by Channel 8.

Rise to prominence
Lee rose to prominence after winning the Best Actor award at the Star Awards 1997 for his role as a hanjian in the television drama The Price of Peace, set in Japanese-occupied Singapore during World War II. He was voted in as one of the Top 10 Most Popular Male Artistes that same year.

In 1998, he starred as Yang Guo in The Return of the Condor Heroes, an adaptation of Louis Cha's novel of the same title. The drama achieved high ratings in Taiwan, and Lee was voted in as Taiwan's Most Popular MediaCorp Male Artiste at the Star Awards 1998 for his performance.

Since then, Lee has acted in many television series jointly produced by Singapore and other countries in the Asia-Pacific region, co-starring with actors from Hong Kong and Taiwan, such as Nadia Chan, Vincent Chiao, Jimmy Lin and Jordan Chan.

Apart from acting, Lee also recorded the theme songs of MediaCorp's television dramas. He released his first solo album in 1999 and another one in 2002.

Apart from acting, Lee has also ventured into hosting and has hosted several travel and food programmes. He was nominated for the Best Info-Ed Show Host award at the Star Awards 2012.

At the Star Awards 2013, Lee won his second Star Awards for Best Actor for his role in Show Hand.

Regional acclaim
For his role as a depressed workaholic in A Good Wife, Lee won his first Golden Bell Award for Best Leading Actor in a Television Series at the 2014 Golden Bell Awards, Taiwan's equivalent of the Emmy Awards.

Lee would go on to win the Golden Bell Award for Best Leading Actor in a Miniseries or Television Film at the 2021 Golden Bell Awards for his role as a construction worker obsessed with money in the HBO comedy Workers.

In 2022, Lee won the Golden Bell Award for Best Supporting Actor in a Television Series in the iQiyi crime thriller Danger Zone.

In 2023, Lee ended veteran host Quan Yi Fong's five-year winning streak when he won the Star Awards for Best Programme Host at the 2023 Star Awards.

Ventures
On 9 November 2021, Lee launched a golf clothing brand, eponymously named LMS, the initials of his Chinese name in pinyin.

Personal life

After an eight-year courtship, Lee married Fann Wong, his co-star in several television series, on 16 May 2009. The wedding ceremony was held at Shangri-La Hotel Singapore, with many of Lee's colleagues from the entertainment industry attending their wedding. The couple have a son Zed, who was born on 9 August 2014.

Legal issues
On 8 October 2006, Lee was involved in a hit-and-run road accident. He had allegedly knocked down a motorcyclist due to suspected drunk driving, causing the motorcyclist and his pillion rider to suffer superficial injuries on their faces and legs. He failed the breathalyser test and was more than twice the legal limit. He was arrested and released later on bail.

Despite the incident, Lee managed to win a position among the Top 10 Male Artistes in the Star Awards 2006. In his acceptance speech, Lee said in Mandarin that he had been feeling terrible over the incident during the previous two months, and that he would be responsible for what he did. Speaking to reporters later, he mentioned that he had been unable to sleep at times, adding that he was very grateful to his fans for their support.

On 10 May 2007, Lee was fined S$4,500 and disqualified from driving for three years on charges of drunk driving and other traffic offences, as well as being sentenced to a prison term of four weeks after he admitted to drink driving, inconsiderate driving, failing to render aid to the injured motorcyclist and his injured pillion rider and removing his car from the scene without police permission. Lee appealed against his jail sentence but withdrew his appeal later on 28 May. He began serving his sentence at Queenstown Remand Prison on the same day. On 15 June, the prosecution succeeded in appealing against Lee's four-week jail sentence and the court decided to overturn an earlier sentence of a S$3,000 fine for his drunk driving offence. Lee was sentenced to an additional two weeks in prison, making his total prison term six weeks long. On 21 June, the prosecution dropped the last of five charges against Lee for failing to stop after an accident, letting him off with a stern warning instead. Lee was released on 25 June, after receiving a reduction in his prison sentence due to good behavior.

Due to his conviction, Lee was dropped from playing the lead role in the 2007 Channel 8 television series Metamorphosis. He was replaced by actor Thomas Ong.

On 12 July 2007, the Immigration and Checkpoints Authority (ICA) completed its review on Lee's case and decided to allow him to retain his Singapore Permanent Resident status. However, Lee will be under close observation and the ICA would revoke its decision if Lee violates the law again. After the conviction, he made his comeback in the 2008 television drama Rhythm of Life.
