Elayne Boosler

Elayne Boosler (born August 18, 1952) is an American comedian, writer, and actress.

She was one of the few women working in stand-up comedy in the 1970s and 80s, and she broke ground by adopting an observational style that included frank discussions about her life as a single woman, as well as political commentary. Her 1985, self-produced comedy special Party of One was the first hour-long comedy special by a female comedian to appear on a cable television network.

Comedian Richard Lewis told The New York Times in 1984: "She is the Jackie Robinson of my generation. She is the strongest female working. She broke the mold for most female comics." Rolling Stone referred to her as "The First Lady of Stand-Up" in 1988 and included Boosler in their list of the "50 Best Stand-Up Comics of All Time" in 2017. In 2018, CNN included Boosler in their list of "Groundbreaking women in American comedy" and critic Jason Zinoman of The New York Times referred to Boosler as "The Comedy Master Who Hasn’t Gotten Her Due."

Early life
Born into a Jewish family and raised in Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn, Boosler was the youngest child of seven with six older brothers. Her father was a Russian acrobat who later worked in the tool and die industry. Her mother was a Romanian ballerina. Boosler took singing lessons as a child as well as dance classes with the Joffrey Ballet for several years.

Her first exposure to stand-up comedy was during her family's frequent travels to Las Vegas in her early teens. She was too young to be allowed on the gambling floor of the hotel, so she often watched the comics performing at the lounge. It was this experience that first generated her interest in stand-up comedy.

She graduated from Sheepshead Bay High School in 1969, and was enrolled at the University of South Florida, but she dropped out after two years and traveled to the Bahamas where she worked for six months as a singer and dancer in a musical revue, before returning to New York.

Stand-up comedy
Boosler started performing stand-up comedy at The Improv in New York City in 1973. She had been working at the club as a singing waitress, whose job was to sing between the comedic performances. On a night when one of the scheduled comedians failed to show up, Boosler took to the stage to try some comedy and spent an hour telling jokes. Afterward, Andy Kaufman suggested that she quit her singing job and try comedy instead.

Her talent for comedy was recognized early by comedians and the media alike. By 1976, comic Jimmie Walker was her manager, she was the subject of a multi-page article in New York Magazine and had appeared on Saturday Night Live with Howard Cosell and The Merv Griffin Show. She moved to Los Angeles in 1977 and was featured in a Los Angeles Times article about women in comedy. That same year she made her first appearance on The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson, with Helen Reddy sitting in as guest host. Boosler credits Totie Fields for having suggested her to Reddy.

Boosler became a regular performer at the Comedy Store, a male-dominated environment, where most female performers were relegated to a secondary stage in the upstairs corner of the club called the Belly Room. Boosler refused to perform in the Belly Room and performed instead on the club's main stage. Other comedians performing regularly at the Comedy Store that time included Freddie Prinze, Jay Leno, Richard Lewis, Richard Belzer, Jimmie Walker and Ed Bluestone.

Like her male peers, Boosler's comedy was of a more observational and frank style. Her comedic material drew upon her own life, including her experiences as a single woman, and also featured topical and political elements. Boosler also became known for her rapid-fire delivery. Her performance style set her apart from the more self-deprecating humor of female stand-up predecessors such as Joan Rivers and Phyllis Diller, whose jokes often revolved around being a wife and mother. Boosler preferred to distance herself from the "female comedian" label by declining to be interviewed for articles specifically about women in comedy and by avoiding female-centric comedy showcases.

Johnny Carson stopped inviting her to The Tonight Show after she declined to read some self-deprecating material written for her. Boosler credits David Letterman for bringing her back as a guest on the show during the episodes that he guest-hosted. Letterman would later invite Boosler several times onto Late Night with David Letterman and Late Show with David Letterman.

Boosler struggled to find funding for her first comedy special and was told that no one would watch a woman perform comedy on television. In the end she personally financed Party Of One, which was shot in 1985 and which aired on Showtime in 1986, making Boosler the first woman to have an hour-long comedy special on a cable network. After the success of Party Of One, Showtime signed-on for her subsequent specials Broadway Baby, Top Tomata and Live Nude Girls. Boosler appeared on Larry King Live the following year.

In the 1970s Boosler performed as an opening act for musical performers such as Helen Reddy, Ben Vereen and Johnny Mathis. She performed for Queen Elizabeth II at the London Palladium as part of the Royal Variety Performance in 1989, she performed at the White House Correspondents' Dinner during President Clinton's first year in office in 1993 and in 1997 she took part in a performance for Bill Clinton and United States Congress, filmed at Ford's Theatre in Washington, D.C., and broadcast on ABC. She appeared in CNN's The History of Comedy series broadcast in 2018.

Television work
Boosler starred in the 1982 NBC series The Shape of Things, alongside Dottie Archibald, Rhonda Bates, Alvernette Jimenez, Maureen Murphy and David Ruprecht, and also appeared on The Andy Kaufman Show, a talk show parody created by Kaufman that aired as an episode of the PBS series Soundstage in 1984. In 1988 she co-hosted the CableACE Awards show (known as simply the ACE Awards at the time,) along with John Larroquette. Throughout the 1980s and 90s she played guest roles on sitcoms such as Night Court, The Cosby Show, Living Single, Dear John and Sisters. She also made regular appearances on Hollywood Squares.

She wrote, directed, and acted in two half-hour movies for Cinemax: Comedy From Here, a drama that was broadcast in 1986 as part of the channel's Cinemax Comedy Experiment series, and The Call, a 1989 comedy in which Boosler's character awakens to find herself transformed into a cockroach.

Her 1992 New Year's Eve comedy-variety special, Elayne Boosler's Midnight Hour, was a 90-minute show filmed at The Town Hall in New York City and was telecast live on Showtime. She appeared on HBO's Comic Relief for six years and was also a frequent guest on Bill Maher's Politically Incorrect. In the 1990s she created comedic vignettes for the Today show and in 2004, Boosler hosted the game show Balderdash on PAX (now Ion Television).

She also moderated a forum sponsored by the National Organization for Women during the 2004 Democratic Party presidential primaries that was televised on C-SPAN.

Writing
Boosler has written for other performers, such as her work on Rodney Dangerfield's 1986 comedy special It Ain’t Easy Being Me. She also wrote comedic material for Barbra Streisand that the singer used during her banter between songs.

Boosler has written several pieces published in high-profile publications: She wrote a tribute to Andy Kaufman for Esquire in 1984. In 2003, she wrote an opinion piece about comic strips for the Los Angeles Times in reaction to statements made by comic strip artist Berkeley Breathed in an earlier LA Times article. In 2018, Boosler wrote for Time about her experience of performing for the White House Correspondents' Dinner and the reaction to Michelle Wolf's performance at the event that year, as well as a piece for CNN about trying to excuse offensive behavior by claiming it was a "joke". She has also written pieces for George, USA Today and The New York Times and was a frequent contributor to The Huffington Post between 2011 and 2017.

In 2013 she premiered Rescue – A True Story, a musical performance featuring narration that was written by Boosler and that she read aloud to music composed by Carol Worthey and performed by the Glendale Philharmonic Orchestra of Glendale, Arizona. The performance features the story of a dog's rescue.

Political commentary, advocacy and charity work
Boosler was a frequent guest during election cycles on Larry King Live, CNN and Company and after-debate round tables on CNN. She also appeared on The Joy Behar Show on the CNN Headline News network (now known as HLN.) For several years, she was the permanent guest host on The Stephanie Miller Show, a progressive radio talk show.

Boosler is a supporter of the Women's Reproductive Rights Assistance Project, an organization that raises money for women who are unable to pay for either emergency contraception or a safe and legal abortion.

Boosler began working in animal rescue in 1996, first by volunteering at Boxer Rescue of Los Angeles, eventually joining its board of directors and raised the down payment needed for them to buy a rescue kennel. In 2001, she founded her own nonprofit organization, Tails of Joy, devoted to animal rescue and advocacy.

Personal life
Boosler lived with comedian and actor Robin Williams from 1977 to 1978. In the 2012 book We Killed: The Rise of Women in American Comedy, Williams said of Boosler: It was amazing to see a woman stand-up, girl stand-up, and a beautiful one at the timejust gorgeous, sexy and yet still pretty gutsy. And her jokes were sort of veiled–it seemed kind of 'Oh gosh, oh golly'but at the same time, her jokes were really tough. As Letterman would say, she's funny like a guy. Being tough, but yet at the same time being beautiful and sexy, and at the same time not using that as a ploy. She would be up there just performing, telling jokes. Like she talked about the right to life and two fisherman who'll throw the fish back, but they're for the death penalty. Tough stuff but said really sweetly. Boosler was also interviewed for the 2018 HBO documentary Robin Williams: Come Inside My Mind.

Boosler lived with Andy Kaufman for three years and remained close friends with him until his death in 1984. She wrote an article for Esquire in Kaufman's memory, and dedicated her 1986 Showtime special Party of One to him.

In the early 2000s, Boosler married Bill Siddons, a music industry executive and former manager of The Doors.

Around the World with Willy Fog

Around the World with Willy Fog (La vuelta al mundo de Willy Fog) is a Spanish animated television adaptation of the 1873 novel Around the World in Eighty Days by Jules Verne produced by Spanish studio BRB Internacional and Televisión Española, with animation by Japanese studio Nippon Animation, that was first broadcast on TVE1 weekly between 8 January and 15 July 1984.

In the same vein as BRB's Dogtanian and the Three Muskehounds, the characters are anthropomorphisms of various animals as the species depicted are of much greater variety than in that series. The core trio are all felines being pursued by three canine foes. Willy Fog (Phileas Fogg in the original book) is depicted as a lion, while Rigodon (Passepartout) is a cat, and Romy (Aouda) is a panther.

An English dub of the series was directed by Tom Wyner, which featured artists such as Cam Clarke (as Rigodon), Gregory Snegoff (Inspector Dix), Steve Kramer (as Constable Bully) and Mike Reynolds. While the series never achieved popularity in the United States, the English version found fame when it was broadcast on Children's BBC in the United Kingdom. The series was initially screened in 1984 in the UK (and has been repeated many times since) and then on RTÉ in Ireland, while other dubs gained the series fanbases in several other countries. The series was also dubbed into Japanese and aired on Japan's TV Asahi in 1987, where it was titled Anime Around the World in 80 Days (アニメ80日間世界一周).

With all of the international versions, the height of popularity remains in Spain, where a sequel series, Willy Fog 2, was produced in 1993 which has the characters in adaptations of Verne's science fiction novels, Journey to the Center of the Earth and Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Seas. Furthermore, in 2008, the series spawned a live-action theatrical musical show in celebration of its 25th anniversary.

Plot
As with every morning since he moved into Savile Row, Willy Fog awakens at 8:00 am and rings for his servant, only to remember that he fired him the previous day for his inability to follow Fog's precise schedule. He has already arranged an interview for a replacement – former circus performer Rigodon, who is even now rushing towards Fog's house to make his 11:00 am appointment. Rigodon is accompanied by his old circus colleague Tico, who hides within his travelling bag, and prompts him through the interview, which gets off to a bad start when Rigodon arrives four minutes late. Nonetheless, Rigodon is hired by Fog as his butler and soon departs for the Reform Club.

At the club, the main topic of conversation is the recent theft of £55,000 from the Bank of England which was discussed until the bank's governor Mr. Sullivan arrives and requests a change of topic. Sullivan's off-hand remark that the thief is still in London causes the elderly Lord Guinness to bring up an article in the Morning Chronicle, detailing how it is now possible to travel around the world in eighty days. The article states that one departs London by train for Dover, where one crosses to Calais, and on to Paris. From there, it is a train journey to Brindisi, and the Suez Canal, all within a week. Having rounded the Arabian peninsula, one would arrive in Bombay on day 20 and then a three-day railway journey to Calcutta. Hong Kong is reached on day 33, Yokohama on day 39, and then a mammoth three-week crossing of the Pacific to arrive in San Francisco on day 61, a week-long train crossing to New York City and then finally a nine-day crossing of the Atlantic back to London making it possible to circumnavigate the globe in eighty days. The other members of the club laugh at Lord Guinness's suggestion that he would take on the challenge if he were younger, prompting Fog to defend his honor by taking up the task himself. Sullivan bets Fog £5,000 that it is impossible, and additional wagers by three other club members increase this amount to £20,000. He then stuns the club by announcing that he will leave that very evening and promises to return to the club by 8:45 pm on 21 December 1872.

Rigodon is less than thrilled to hear the news of their impending trip, having spent his life travelling with the circus. However, he dutifully accompanies his master as they set out, with Tico still in hiding. Little do they know, however, that they are pursued by three individuals determined to halt their progress. Inspector Dix and Constable Bully of Scotland Yard are convinced that Fog is the thief who robbed the Bank of England, and the wicked and conniving Transfer, a saboteur, was hired by Mr. Sullivan to impede Fog's journey in any way.

Spanish
Six songs were crafted for the series, composed by Italian background score writers Guido and Maurizio De Angelis and performed by the group Mocedades. The songs were synced with the movement of the animated characters. The eponymous theme song, "La Vuelta al Mundo de Willy Fog", was sung by Fog, Rigodon, Tico and Romy, while Rigodon and Tico also provided the ending theme, "Sílbame" ("Whistle to Me"). Extended versions of both the opening and closing theme tunes were regularly sung by the characters in-show in short musical numbers during the course of the series. As was the "Dix y Transfer" duet in addition two different melodies performed by the protagonists entitled "America America" and "Hay Que Viajar" ("It Is Necessary to Travel"). The sixth song, "Romy", was performed by the titular character, although it only featured in the series in an instrumental form. It would, however, later be used as the closing theme of the sequel series, "Willy Fog 2". The Spanish soundtrack was released in 1984 in LP album, CD and cassette formats. The soundtrack can also be downloaded in Spanish in MP3 format from Amazon's Spanish website.

English
The songs in the English dub of the series were sung by Ted Mather, re-using the De Angelis's music but with new English lyrics that are similar to the original Spanish. Perhaps most prominently, "Hay Que Viajar" was retitled "Daisy", and became a song about a woman by that name. All six songs were re-recorded in their entirety – even "Romy", which did not appear in the series. The English soundtrack is available to download in MP3 format from Amazon's UK website.

Japanese
Two new theme tunes were composed for the Japanese dub of the series, both sung by Keiko Han. The opening theme was entitled "Sky Way", while the closing tune was named "Our Two Watches".

Finnish
Songs in the Finnish dub were sung by the actors of YLE Import re-using the De Angelis's music but with new Finnish lyrics. In the Finnish dub some scenes are cut, which includes musical numbers in some episodes.

Czech
In Czech some scenes from Willy Fog episodes are cut (songs), but those "deleted scenes" are used in the opening and ending.

Home media
The series distributed by BRB Internacional, was co-produced with Televisión Española, as a result, BRB Internacional must give approval before any home video release of the series is made available.

In December 1985, Sony Video Software announced the release of the series on VHS in the United States.

From 3 October 1988 to 10 September 1990, select episodes were released in the United Kingdom on PAL VHS tapes by Video Collection International (then: Lollipop Video), rated U for "Universal" and deemed suitable for all ages.

In 1995, BRB Internacional released three direct-to-video Willy Fog movies – Around the World in 80 Days, Journey to the Center of the Earth and 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea – each one created by heavily editing the first series from roughly 650 minutes in total down to a truncated 75 minutes apiece. All three films were dubbed by Village Productions, who had previously dubbed the second series for the United Kingdom, and later reached the United States on DVD. Notably, the Village Productions dub for the first movie was able to secure use of Intersound's English-language version of the theme tune.

In 2004, Revelation Films released all twenty-six episodes of Around the World with Willy Fog on DVD in the UK, across five Region-0-encoded discs. Extras included character profiles, a Jules Verne biography, and bonus episodes of Arthur! and the Square Knights of the Round Table and Dogtanian and the Three Muskehounds. In 2005, all five discs were collected in a complete series box set.

Around 2016, the English dub of all episodes of the series was uploaded to the official channel of BRB Internacional on the video-sharing website YouTube.

Willy Fog 2
Due to the success of the first series, BRB Internacional and Televisión Española revisited the franchise ten years later, with animation by Wang Film Productions in Taiwan and Shanghai Morning Sun Animation in China, released a sequel series simply titled Willy Fog 2. The series ran to 26 episodes, and consisted of two separate serialized stories that were based on the original novels Journey to the Center of the Earth and Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Seas.

Around the World with Willy Fog: The Musical
La vuelta al mundo de Willy Fog: El Musical was released in 2008 in celebration of the show's 25th anniversary in its home country of Spain. With the original cartoon soundtrack by the De Angelises, the theatrical performance featured live actors Jaume Ortonobas (Fog), Laura Toledo (Romy) and José Troncoso (Rigodon) in make-up and masks to replicate the anthropomorphic characters of the cartoon. Tico is represented as a puppet manipulated by Celia Vioque. Scripted by original series creator Claudio Biern Boyd and directed by Ricard Reguant, the musical ran twice a day in the Teatro Häagen-Dazs Calderón in Madrid from October 2008; although originally intended only to run until the end of the year, the show's success saw its run extended first until early February 2009, after which it proved so successful that it went on tour around the country until the end of the year.

Feature film
By November 2020, a film based on the series was in development by Apolo Films and is scheduled to be released in 2023. The film will be 3D computer-animated.

Freddie Spencer

Frederick Burdette Spencer (born December 20, 1961), sometimes known by the nickname Fast Freddie, is an American former world champion motorcycle racer. Spencer is regarded as one of the greatest motorcycle racers of the early 1980s.

Early years
Spencer was born in Shreveport, Louisiana. He was a racing prodigy who began racing at the age of four, competing in dirt track events near his hometown of Shreveport. After winning the 1978 250cc U.S. National Novice Class Road Racing Championship for first year professionals, Spencer was contracted to ride for the American Honda racing team in the AMA Superbike Championship. He gave Honda their first-ever super bike victory when he won the Road America round of the 1980 AMA Superbike Championship.

Spencer gained international prominence at the 1980 U.S. versus Britain Transatlantic Trophy match races when he won two legs at Brands Hatch, defeating World Champions Kenny Roberts and Barry Sheene in the process. Spencer went on to finish third in the 1980 Superbike championships and second to Eddie Lawson in 1981. In 1981, he split his time between the AMA Superbike series, and the European Grand Prix circuit, helping Honda develop the exotic, oval-cylindered NR500 four-stroke Grand Prix bike.

Grand Prix world championships
By 1982, he had been promoted full-time to Honda's Grand Prix team, who by then had given up on the NR500 and developed the NS500 three cylinder, two-stroke. In 1983, Spencer won his first 500cc World Championship at the age of 21, becoming the youngest person to win the title, a distinction previously held by Mike Hailwood. His record has since been surpassed by Marc Márquez in 2013.

The 1983 season would be remembered as one of the most dramatic title chases in the history of Grand Prix racing; Honda's Spencer and Yamaha's Kenny Roberts fought back and forth for the points lead with each of them earning six victories. The season culminated at the penultimate round in Sweden when the two riders collided on the last lap. Roberts ran off the track leaving Spencer to sprint to the finish line and victory. Roberts won the last race but Spencer finished second, securing his first world title by two points.

In 1984, Honda developed a radically new V4 NSR500 that featured the fuel tank under the engine and the expansion chambers under a false tank above the engine. Teething problems and injuries from crashes hindered Spencer's defense of his crown and he was relegated to fourth place in the championship. In spite of this, he still managed to win three times with the NSR500, and twice more on the NS500 three cylinder machine.

1985 proved to be a historic year for Spencer. He began the season by winning the prestigious season opening Daytona 200. Spencer also won the Formula 1 and 250cc classes, making him the only rider to win all three divisions in a single year. Spencer also competed in both the 250cc and 500cc Grand Prix World Championships, winning both titles in the same year. That made him the fifth (and last) rider ever to win in the 500cc and the next class down and, due to class changes, the only rider to win in both 500cc and 250cc in one year. His career was cut short by wrist injuries that some believe were caused by the physical strain of competing in two championships during a single season.

After his historic 1985 season, Spencer never won another Grand Prix race. He retired from Grand Prix racing at the beginning of 1988, although there were a couple of GP comeback attempts, in 1989 and 1993.

Later career
He returned to race in the AMA Superbike Championship in the 1990s, winning three races. He was eighth in 1991, riding a Honda for Two Brothers Racing, and went one better in 1992. In 1995 he raced a Fast By Ferracci Ducati to ninth, and at the end of the year took over the works Ducati from Mauro Lucchiari in Superbike World Championship.

Spencer raced under several different marques during his racing career, winning his first Superbike National Championship race aboard a Kawasaki, but he is most closely associated with Honda and his partnership with Grand Prix tuner, Erv Kanemoto. He won all three of his world titles on Hondas with Kanemoto as head mechanic. Spencer had a short stint with the Agostini Yamaha team and ended his career on a Ducati in the US National Championship.

For many years, Spencer operated a motorcycle riding school, Freddie Spencer's High Performance Riding School, until October 2008. Primarily based in Las Vegas, Nevada, the school counted Nick Ienatsch and Ken Hill as chief instructor and lead instructor, respectively. After it closed, Ienatsch founded a successor-program, the Yamaha Champions Riding School.

Spencer now lives in London, England, and commentates on television for various racing series. For 2019 Spencer was appointed the chairman of the FIM MotoGP™ Stewards Panel.

Honors

 * "Freddie Spencer Day", declared in 1984 by Mayor John Brennan Hussey in Shreveport after Spencer won the 500cc World Championship the previous year. Sheriff of Caddo Parish, Don Hathaway made Spencer an "honorary deputy" for the occasion.
 * Inducted into the AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame in 1999.
 * Inducted into the Motorsports Hall of Fame of America in 2001.
 * The FIM named him a Grand Prix "Legend" in 2001.
 * Inducted Into the Louisiana Sports Hall of Fame in 2009.

William Chatterton

William Chatterton (27 December 1861 – 19 March 1913) was an English cricketer and footballer. He played first-class cricket for Derbyshire between 1882 and 1902 and for England on their tour of South Africa in 1891–92. He captained Derbyshire between 1887 and 1889 and scored over 10,000 runs in his first-class career as well as taking over 200 wickets. He played football for Derby County, being one of 19 sportsmen to achieve the Derbyshire Double of playing cricket for Derbyshire and football for Derby County.

Life
Chatterton was born at Thornsett, Birch Vale, Derbyshire, the son of David Chatterton, a cotton mill fireman, and his wife Hannah. In 1881 he was a cotton carrier in the mills at Newton Cheshire.

Cricket career
Chatterton started playing cricket for Derbyshire in the 1882 season and football for Derby County in 1884.

Chatterton was captain of Derbyshire cricket from 1887 to 1889. The club was demoted from first-class status before the 1888 season.

In 1891–92 Chatterton toured South Africa with W. W. Read's English team. It was a winter in which two England sides toured (the other one to Australia), but later the representative games on each tour were raised to Test match status, which meant that Chatterton played one Test match. He was the team's outstanding batsman on the tour, scoring 955 runs in all matches at an average of 41.52.

Chatterton was considered to be almost single-handedly responsible for Derbyshire regaining first-class status in the 1894 season. He finished his cricketing career for Derbyshire in the 1902 season.

Football career
Chatterton was an inside–forward and played in Derby County's first FA Cup tie against Walsall Town on 8 November 1884, which Derby County lost 7–0. He played many games for the club before the Football League was formed in 1888. He then made five League appearances for Derby County in the first Football League season of 1888–89.

William Chatterton, playing as an inside–forward, made his League debut on 13 October 1888 at Thorneyholme Road, the home of Accrington. The home team won 6–2. Chatterton, on his League debut supplanted Levi Wright as Derby County' oldest League player. Chatterton scored his debut and only League goal at County Ground, the then home of Derby County, on 20 October 1888. Chatterton scored, with his head, to reduce Everton's half–time lead to 2–1. Derby County lost the match 4–2. Chatterton was 26 years 298 days old when scoring his debut League goal which made him, on that seventh week of League football, Derby County' oldest player. William Chatterton appeared in five of the 22 League matches played by Derby County in season 1888–89 scoring one League goal.

Chatterton was not retained at the end of the 1888–1889 season and did not play League football again.

Death
Chatterton died of tuberculosis at Flowery Field, Hyde, Cheshire, in 1913.

Talk:Meatballs (film)

"Spaz"
I think it should be pointed out that "spaz" was a slang word for a nerdy, uncoördinated person who was no good at sports long before Meatballs, at least in Southern Ontario, where coincidentally, the film was made. Kelisi 04:34, 18 December 2005 (UTC)

Canadian
Just to bring over more information from the WikiProject Film article, I think it's safe to call this film Canadian. It's in the Canadian Film Archive if that helps it any, (source) and the British Film Institute calls it a Canadian film, It's production companies on the BFI website list it as Haliburton films (Canadian), the Canadian Film Development Corporation (obviously Canadian), Famous Players (Canadian), and Mount Royal Productions (Canadian!).

 * Yeah, it seems the logical conclusion. ---  RepublicanJacobite  TheFortyFive 03:36, 1 June 2012 (UTC)

Reception
The use of current Rotten Tomatoes reviews clearly shows the flaw in this method. While it was a commercial success, certainly no one thought it a good film at the time except the 14 year olds who saw it. To indicate a 75% positive rating from that website indicates only that the critics sited have very bad taste AND that the craft of reviewing/criticism (different things I grant) has utterly hit the skids over the past few decades. I allow that there are such things as "guilty pleasures", as well as reevaluation of films through different eras (such as with "A Christmas Story", a movie utterly trashed when it came out, and yet becoming an adored seasonal treasure a few decades later), as well as an individual's defense of what is largely perceived to be a bad movie, but championed by a lone defender...however "Meatballs" can't possibly be in any one of those categories. It was junk in '79, and having just seen it, remains junk. Now I realize this is my POV perspective...my point here is that to indicate a largley positive rating from Rotten Tomatoes, based on what must be the dumbed down opinions of mostly poor reviewers skews how the film was thought of then, as well as now by anyone older than 35. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.125.228.93 (talk) 00:13, 2 April 2013 (UTC)

Wiki Linking
I made a recent major "housekeeping" edit to the page in which I deleted uneeded extra spaces, ensured that actors/directors/etc were referred to by there last name after the first mention, and also cleaned up the Wiki linking per Manual of Style/Linking as there were many actors/words that were linked many many times. Note that the MOS says "Generally, a link should appear only once in an article, but if helpful for readers, links may be repeated in infoboxes, tables, image captions, footnotes, and at the first occurrence after the lead." and thus a second Wiki link is only optional if it serves the page (let alone the third, fourth, fifth, etc, etc) but it is by no means necessary.

Following this, an anon editor restored all the Wiki linking in the Cast section - including red links for actors who will never have a page of their own. After I reverted the anon's edits as "good faith efforts", but contrary to the MOS, Epicgenius restored the anon's edits saying his opinion that the MOS was only a general guideline. Honestly this has nothing to do with my opinion of Epic's opinion, as I've routinely seen Wiki links of the same actor 3-4-5x's on a page (infobox, lede, once after the lede, again lower down if it is a very large page, and in a photo or two). However the Cast section on this page is a mere inches below the Plot section where all these actors are already linked and the page isn't that big. Not a huge deal and I'm happy to be wrong, but IMO its clearly overkill. Ckruschke (talk) 20:48, 27 February 2014 (UTC)Ckruschke

 * In my view, the wikilinks should be there because some people want to see the wikilinks in one huge list. I would understand if the wikilinks were in the same paragraph (or, in some cases, the same section), they probably should be removed; however, this is a new list, and the wikilinks should probably be there. Just my two cents. Epicgenius (talk) 21:01, 27 February 2014 (UTC)

 * By the way, not many people follow the MOS, so this is a link to the relevant policy: WP:OVERLINK Epicgenius (talk) 21:02, 27 February 2014 (UTC)

 * Epicgenius - WP:OVERLINK has the exact same text as MOS... Ckruschke (talk) 15:25, 28 February 2014 (UTC)Ckruschke

 * I know, it is part of the MOS. Epicgenius (talk) 15:28, 28 February 2014 (UTC)

 * The MOS mentions that links may be repeated in tables. I think that in terms of the "Cast" section, tables and lists can be interchangeable. I assume the MOS permits that flexibility because readers may look up information in different ways. Not everyone will want to dive into the plot summary just to determine an actor associated with a role. It's not a very navigation-friendly approach. As for the red links, I think we can apply WP:REDLINK here. We can quickly look up the red linked actors on IMDb and see if their filmographies are extensive enough to possibly warrant an article at some point. I'm assuming with the age of this film, it's not likely, so we could just delink these instances. Erik (talk | contrib) (ping me) 21:05, 27 February 2014 (UTC)

 * I agree with both Erik & Epicgenius that in general you want to present the Wiki links in several different ways (as I stated above in my opening comment). However, with the Plot section and the Cast section within inches of eachother, I don't see the point of having everyone Wiki linked twice in this small space. In contrast, the Star Trek (movie) page is about 5X longer and is (in my mind) a good example of how Wiki linking should work. The actors are all Wiki linked in the infobox, the lede, once in the upper body and then again in the lower body, in addition to here and there in photos. Seems to me that having all the actors linked twice on this page in such a small space is a classic case of how to overlink. Ckruschke (talk) 15:25, 28 February 2014 (UTC)Ckruschke

I didn't realize Craven was already linked. However, in the case of films, the links should be in the "Cast" section rather than anywhere else. When wanting to find out who was in a movie, I always jump to the cast section rather than searching through the lede or the plot sections. Having all the links close together makes life easier. That's my $0.02. Bill the Cat 7 (talk) 19:04, 5 March 2014 (UTC)

 * Bill the Cat 7 - I was actually the one that put all the links in the Plot - as I was responding to what appeared to be the page concensus on Wiki linking. I'm not sure what the concensus is now - which isn't a slam on anyone, just a statement. Let me shift them all back into the cast section and we can go from there. Ckruschke (talk) 19:17, 5 March 2014 (UTC)Ckruschke

 * I was simply stating what my own personal preference was. If you like it where it's at, then I can live with it.  No biggie.  :)  Bill the Cat 7 (talk) 19:31, 5 March 2014 (UTC)

Crescent (John Coltrane album)

Crescent is a studio album by the jazz musician and composer John Coltrane. It was released in July 1964 through the label Impulse!. Alongside Coltrane on tenor saxophone, the album features McCoy Tyner (piano), Jimmy Garrison (double bass) and Elvin Jones (drums) playing original Coltrane compositions.

Coltrane does not solo at all on side two of the original LP; the ballad "Lonnie's Lament" instead features a long bass solo by Garrison. The album's closing track is an improvisational feature for Jones (with sparse melodic accompaniment from Coltrane's tenor sax and Garrison's bass at the song's beginning and end): Coltrane continued to explore drum/saxophone duets in live performances with this group and on subsequent recordings such as the posthumously released Interstellar Space (with Rashied Ali).

Legacy
An earlier version of "Lonnie's Lament" appears on Afro-Blue Impressions, and an almost hour-long version of "Crescent" was recorded on Live in Japan. The entire album was collected on The Classic Quartet: The Complete Impulse! Recordings. Coltrane later recorded the song "After the Crescent", which appeared on 1978's To the Beat of a Different Drum.

The title track was later covered by Alice Coltrane for 2004's Translinear Light and McCoy Tyner on his 1991 album Soliloquy. Tyner recorded it again live for the albums McCoy Tyner Plays John Coltrane: Live at the Village Vanguard and Live at Sweet Basil. Guitarist Steve Lukather is the soloist on the version recorded for the 2005 tribute album A Guitar Supreme. The SFJAZZ Collective covered four of the songs on their SFJAZZ Collective 2, with Nicholas Payton and Joshua Redman soloing on the title track.

Garrison's widow recalled that this album along with A Love Supreme were the two he listened to the most.

CTV Atlantic

CTV Atlantic (formerly known as the Atlantic Television Network, or ATV) is a system of four television stations in the Maritimes, owned and operated by the CTV Television Network, a division of Bell Media. Despite the name, it is not available on basic cable or analog in Newfoundland and Labrador even though that province is part of Atlantic Canada.

The CTV Atlantic stations are:
 * CJCH-DT – Halifax, Nova Scotia (flagship station)
 * CJCB-DT – Sydney, Nova Scotia
 * CKCW-DT – Moncton, New Brunswick/Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island
 * CKLT-DT – Saint John, New Brunswick

All four stations refer to themselves on air as CTV, not by their call letters. CJCB and CKCW simulcast CJCH for most of the day, but air separate commercials and local telethons. CKLT is a full repeater of CKCW. However, all four stations are separately licensed by the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC). Station information and history is discussed in each station's own article.

History
CJCH was a charter CTV affiliate when that network began on October 1, 1961. CJCB and CKCW were established as CBC Television stations in 1954. CKCW affiliated with CTV in 1969, adding sister station CKLT the same year. Between 1969 and 1976, CKCW's relay stations in Northern New Brunswick (Campbellton, Upsalquitch Lake and Newcastle [Miramichi], plus three relay stations in Quebec) carried a combined CBC/CTV schedule, becoming full relays of CKCW after CHSJ in Saint John, the CBC affiliate in New Brunswick, established its own relays in the area.

CHUM Limited, a Toronto broadcaster, bought CJCH in 1970, CJCB in 1971 and CKCW and CKLT in 1972. After the CBC opened a relay in Sydney, CHUM switched CJCB's affiliation to CTV and merged its four Maritimes CTV affiliates into the ATV system. Shortly afterward, CKCW opened a rebroadcaster in Charlottetown, making Prince Edward Island the last province to get CTV. On February 26, 1997 (with CRTC approval given on August 28, 1997 ), as part of a group deal, the ATV stations were sold to CTV. Although each station originally produced its own news and local programming, these were progressively cut back from the 1980s onward. Today, nearly all programming originates from Halifax. However, CJCB and CKCW break off from CJCH's signal to air separate commercials and locally produced telethons.

As with many regional networks, this creates a balancing act where local stories in one community or province are of little interest in another area of CTV Atlantic's coverage area, and viewers in each province feel the news division focuses too much on either New Brunswick or Nova Scotia, along with a lesser focus on Prince Edward Island. However, CTV Atlantic has had some of the highest ratings of any local newscasts in Canada, although its presence and viewing audience is somewhat less in PEI mainly as a result of competition from CBCT in Charlottetown, which provides the province's only PEI-specific newscast.

On October 11, 2005, ATV was renamed "CTV Atlantic". Most other CTV owned-and-operated stations had been renamed the prior week. Due to it being in the Atlantic Time Zone and ahead an hour of the Eastern Time Zone, some programming on CTV Atlantic airs at different times than on the master main Eastern/Central CTV feed and for programming from the United States, is actually carried ahead of its first airing on their original American networks.

Newscasts and regionally-produced programming
CTV Atlantic produces 25.5 hours of local programming each week. All news programs are produced in 16:9 high definition as of July 13, 2014 at CJCH's Robie Street studio in Halifax. CTV News also has news bureaus in Sydney, New Glasgow, Saint John, Fredericton and Moncton.

Mount Mandara

Mandara (मन्दर, मन्दार; ) is the name of the mountain that appears in the Samudra Manthana episode in the Hindu Puranas, where it was used as a churning rod to churn the ocean of milk. Shiva's serpent, Vasuki, offered to serve as the rope pulled on one side by a team of asuras, and on the other, by a team of devas. The Puranas refer to various sacred places on the hill that are also believed to be the abode of the avatar Krishna as Madhusudana or the destroyer of the asura called Madhu, who was killed by Krishna and then covered by the Mount Mandara.

Literature
Kalidasa's Kumarasambhava refers to foot marks of Vishnu on the slopes of Mandara. The hill is replete with relics of bygone ages. Besides inscriptions and statues there are numerous rock cut sculptures depicting various Brahmanical images. The hill is equally revered by the Jains who believe that their 12th Tirthankara Shri Vasupujya attained nirvana here on the summit of the hill.

Depictions
The depiction of the Churning of the Ocean of Milk became very popular in Khmer art, perhaps because their creation myth involved a Nāga ancestor. It is a popular motif in both Khmer and Thai art; one of the most dramatic depictions is one of the eight friezes that can be seen around the inner wall of Angkor Wat—the others being the Battle of Kurukshetra, Suryavarman's Military Review, scenes from Heaven and Hell, the battle between Vishnu and the asuras, the Battle between Krishna and Banasura, a battle between the gods and asuras, and the Battle of Lanka.

Talk:Glenn T. Seaborg

Untitled

 * This article has a Comments page which may be more properly placed on the talk page.

Alpha Chi Sigma
I can confirm he was one of the founding members of the UCLA chapter of Alpha Chi Sigma, the professional chemistry fraternity. Restevens1 04:02, 20 May 2007 (UTC) restevens1

Seaborg also was chair of the fraternity's scholarship committee and served on its Educational Foundation Board of Directors. He frequently attended the national meetings, preferring to bunk in the dormatory with the other members, rather than a hotel room of his own. This lead to surprising introductions with collegiate members from universities from across the country, in the dorm restroom, standing there shaving early in the morning. Restevens1 04:22, 20 May 2007 (UTC)restevens1

Seaborg Medal
UCLA's Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry awards the Seaborg Medal for achievement in chemistry and biochemistry. --205.175.225.5 17:58, 13 October 2005 (UTC)

Plutonium preceded the Manhattan Project
While it is commonly assumed that plutonium was discovered during the Manhattan project, it was actually created by Seaborg and his associates on February 23, 1941 at 307 Gilman Hall, University of California, Berkley. The Manhattan Project did not begin until 1942.

Seaborg and his colleagues were quite disappointed and upset that pre-war secrecy prevented them from publishing their discoveries in scientific journals. They did send notices to both the Uranium Committee and the editors of Physical Review with a reluctant request that publication be withheld.

Books Section (help needed)
Seaborg wrote 50+ books. Please help complete this section if you can. Glenn4pr 08:53, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

Cleanup: Legacy section
I put a cleanup tag there because that section, a list of "principal accomplishments" seems like promotional material that is not ordinarily present in encyclopedic biographies. I really don't see the need for this list, as everything in it has already been mentioned in the article. The scope of the list should be better defined, or the list itself should be deleted.--Jiang 07:38, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

 * As you know, a biography of this sort is complicated by the sheer mass and range of the individual's accomplishments. In these cases, a summarizing section is in order to help crystallize the subject's principal accomplishments. For WP parallels, see the "Honors" section in the Einstein article. The "Legacy" section in the article on Isaac Newton, FDR and Mao. I suppose it becomes subjective to determine which biographies require these kind of summarizing sections regarding legacy. In Seaborg's case, however, he was listed in the Guiness Book of World's Records as having the longest entry in Marquis' Who's Who, which sort of justifies the need for a summary. Someone nominated this as one of the more important biographies, so that may be taken as another objective justification for a legacy section. Anyway, I'll try removing the bullet points and focusing on the legacy implications, when I get a chance. Glenn4pr 15:20, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

The summary of the article resides in its lead section; it is not necessary to summarize again. The "honors" section of the Einstein article lists awards (i.e. honors) given to Einstein over the years, after his death. The "legacy" section of the Newton article lists discoveries that were later expanded and molded. This is precisely what the word "legacy" means: things handed down from the past. "Legacy" does not mean "principal accomplishments" or "summary of one's biography". Element 106 is part of Seaborg's legacy; that he won the Nobel Prize or was given the title of University Professor is not. We don't need to repeat that he won the Nobel Prize since this fact is already visible in the lead section. --Jiang 23:47, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Jiang, since you have already given this some thought, I suggest that you go through this section and remove those items you object to. If they are already in the article, they should not be reinstated, and I would support you on that. Sincerely, GeorgeLouis 19:23, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

His alma mater
The infobox now gives him two alma maters. This is not possible. UCLA is his only alma mater (the school he graduated from). UC Berkeley is not his alma mater. I would change this but I don't know how to work infoboxes and can't find any help article about them. Sincerely, GeorgeLouis 05:32, 1 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Seaborg received his bachelor's at UCLA and his doctorate at UC Berkeley. Since the definition of "Alma Mater" is the college or school that one attended or graduated from, I think it is reasonable to list both. Seaborg certainly considered himself an alumnus of both schools, regularly attending college bowl games for both schools (whenever they made it) until late in his life. Glenn4pr 02:12, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
 * After checking my Webster's 11th, I grant your point. Sincerely, GeorgeLouis 03:14, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
 * I'll bet, though, that during the period when he was chancellor at Berkeley, he muted his love for UCLA . MWS 16:21, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

Writing address w/ elements
Removed the following: "For the remainder of his life, Seaborg was the only person in the world who could write his address in chemical element symbols: seaborgium, lawrencium, berkelium, californium, americium (Glenn Seaborg, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, Berkeley, California, United States of America), or, in chemical symbols: Sg, Lr, Bk, Cf, Am." as it's trivial, and I doubt it's veracity. Seems out of place on a formal biography.Dirtyharry2 00:27, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

 * It might or might not be true, but it should be sourced if true. Did Seaborg actually do this? Seems like a stretch. GeorgeLouis 01:36, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

 * One of the first sources for this oft quoted point was an article in Discover magazine. See Jeffrey Winters, "What’s in a Name?" DISCOVER, Vol. 19 No. 01, January 1998. Also available on the web at http://www.discover.com/issues/jan-98/features/theyearinscience1309/, website, accessed October 17, 2006. See also http://crookedtimber.org/2005/07/17/acronymity/ and http://www.tbtf.com/archive/0145.html#s09 Glenn4pr 05:56, 18 October 2006 (UTC)

 * Rewrote passage regarding his address. It is more than trivia. It is instructive of both his prolific contributions to science and his strong ambition to create an enduring legacy. Glenn4pr 06:30, 18 October 2006 (UTC)

 * I'm still not following. Other than Seaborgium (which is a proper name), anyone else who happened to live in the same place could claim the same 'achievement' regarding the address.  I simply don't see the relevance.  The fact that he discovered so many elements is documented at length elsewhere in the article, and tangential relevance to his address simply doesn't add much, IMHO.  However, since I'm the poster who originally removed the text, I'll step back for someone else to act/not act.Dirtyharry2 18:21, 18 October 2006 (UTC)

Although Seaborg never actually wrote his address on an envelope like this (to the best of my knowledge), I heard him say this. It is a "trivial" but unique fact. No one else living (before, at that time, nor currently) had an element named them. All were deceased at the time of naming, save Seaborg. Restevens1 04:08, 20 May 2007 (UTC)restevens1

Transmuting lead into gold?
I haven't been able to find any solid reference for the claim that he ever transmuted lead into gold. I did find a paper where he transmuted bismuth into gold. I suspect that the whole lead claim is just a kind of urban legend (bismuth didn't sound as glamorous, and most people haven't even heard of it!). The paper is K. Aleklett, D. J. Morrissey, W. Loveland, P. L. McGaughey, and G. T. Seaborg. Energy dependence of 209Bi fragmentation in relativistic nuclear collisions. ''Phys. Rev. C 1981, 23'', 1044-1046. . (This work was originally presented at an ACS meeting in 1980, so the 1980 date in the article is correct.) --Itub 12:08, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

Seaborgium - unconfirmed anecdote
I had the pleasure of briefly meeting Professor Seaborg while attending UCB and was struck by how tall and charming he was. Supposedly shortly after academics began using the seaborgium name for element 106, the ACS issued a statement reaffirming the policy of not naming elements after living people. As the story goes, when Seaborg was asked to comment on this, he said something to the effect of, "Well, it seems I've done enough to be nominated as the namesake for element 106, but as far as the ACS is concerned, I have yet to do one last thing--that is, to die." As morbid as it sounds, I'm certain it was meant to be humorous. It was definitely taken that way by people. (It's entirely possible that while the paraphrased comment is attributed to Seaborg, it was really made by someone else.)  Of course, ultimately, the ACS relented. If anyone was worthy of making that exception, Seaborg was. --67.188.0.96 04:00, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
 * FWIW, I've heard the story too. I have no idea if it is real or just a legend, though. --Itub 09:19, 14 March 2007 (UTC)
 * The anecdote actually appears in his autobiography... "Adventures in the Atomic Age" or at least something similar to the anecdote does.  The only reason I remember this anecdote was that it also applied to another, but by the time they named that element the other scientist had died. Das Nerd 02:00, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

Per my personal conversation with Dr. Darleane Hoffman, she and Dr. Al Ghiorso had put together the idea to honor Glenn Seaborg. They ran it by Helen, his wife. She thought he would be pleased (and a little embarassed). So, they proposed it to IUPAC, which adopted it. Then they told Glenn. He was taken aback, but finally relented and agreed to this honor (since it was already a "done deal", he couldn't do much about it!) Restevens1 04:15, 20 May 2007 (UTC)restevens1

Number of children
This article says Glen and his wife had six children; her article says they had seven children, one of whom died young. Can someone confirm which is correct and edit the page which is wrong?

Molybdomancer (talk) 15:04, 14 September 2009 (UTC)

They had a female child die as an infant, she is not listed in this article. She was a fraternal twin to one of the boys. I know this for a fact, but don't have a source handy so won't add it to the article. Glenn4pr (talk) 23:23, 10 February 2012 (UTC)

Discovery of fission
I have removed a sentence that claimed Seaborg discovered the fission of 235U. Fission of uranium was discovered by Hahn and Strassmann in 1938 and explained theoretically by Meitner and Frisch in 1939. It was Neils Bohr who showed that fission observed in natural uranium came from 235U.Struvite (talk) 15:46, 12 December 2010 (UTC)

Patents
Did he receive patents on the elements Americium and Curium themselves (seems unlikely) or just on the methods for "manufacturing" them? --Dante Alighieri | Talk 19:56, 22 September 2011 (UTC)

He received the patents on the elements themselves. They are on record as the shortest patent "claim" ever: "1. Element 95" in the one case and "1. Element 96" in the other. US 3,164,462 (Dec. 15, 1964; filed Feb. 7. 1949) Element 96 and compositions thereof “1. Element 96” US 3,156,523 (Nov. 10, 1964; filed Aug. 23, 1946) Element 95 and method of producing said element “1. Element 95” Dr. Glenn T. Seaborg U.S. Atomic Energy Commission (Washington, DC) Glenn4pr (talk) 23:35, 10 February 2012 (UTC)

External link?
Would an interview with transcript with Glenn Seaborg from 1986 be useful here as an external link? Focus of conversation is nuclear weapons policy. http://openvault.wgbh.org/catalog/V_26A09FA3EFD24CA59DFCA3A22B27E450 (I have a conflict of interest; otherwise I would add it myself.) Mccallucc (talk) 17:11, 23 March 2016 (UTC)

Proposed merge of Glenn T. Seaborg bibliography into Glenn T. Seaborg
Enough Independent notability of this subject? Lack citation for nearly 10 years. -Lemonaka 11:21, 4 December 2023 (UTC)

 * I would wonder if merging it would unbalance the parent article. We may want to keep it separate for WP:SIZE issues.
 * That said, I don't know that we need additional citations in Glenn T. Seaborg bibliography. The individual entries in the list would be self-citing. A quick search of various catalogs should reveal if any entries are missing. Then the results should be cleaned up for quality, merger or not.  Imzadi 1979  →   01:50, 5 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Oppose merge. Main article should include only the major publications. Artem.G (talk) 20:19, 3 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Oppose merge, since a standalone article on a person's bibliography is relying on the author's notability to sustain it and mainly exists to keep the main article from being filled with information on their publications. Recon  rabbit  19:47, 18 June 2024 (UTC)

 * That's not needed Rob, relax. Siebren

 * Keep What is this all about? Who's to say that the LPO doesn't exist? I hate every single one of them, but they're definitely real. What does Yggdrasil know anyways?? What kind of name is that? I was in Calgary a few weeks ago where I understand they've just opened up a new chapter and believe me, I wish I had never found out about them. I am a fairly religious person, so one Sunday after church I'm waiting to cross the street, and this little old nun was having some trouble. Being the nice guy that I am, I decided to help her accross the street. There were a few other people crossing the street as well as it was a busy service. I'll never forget the guy walking next to me. He was wearing a blue jersey with I think "Chang" or something written on it. (I later found out it was an Everton Football Club jersey (the scouse accent was unmistakenable thinking about it now) which makes me wonder where the last line of the description came from..... Yggdrasil probably added it if he really is a member of a rival crew) Anyways, we get across the street and the man (I'd guess 6'3, brown hair, fairly big guy in general)grabbed the little old lady and ran. I tried chasing after him, but believe me, I'm not much of a physical specimen. I keep looking for them when I hear screams from behind a building. Awful screams that I'll never forget. It took me another few minutes to find where they came from, and when I got there, all I saw was the nun's black robe. I never saw the little old lady again, or the guy dressed in blue, but if I had..... well I don't know what I would have done, he was huge. Needless to say, I was pretty pissed off about the days happenings. I got back to my friends' place where I was staying and told him about the events of the day. To my surprise, he just shrugged it off and explained everything to me. He knew about the LPO and apparently that was the 5th nun that month to just "disappear". Apparently they have connections inside multi-national organizations and are next to impossible to track down. I'll never forget that day, but reading these BS posts about how it's not real has got me pretty riled up. Are any of you even from Calgary??--Concerned Calgary visitor

 * Keep LPO is real, if you dont know ya betta ask somebody from TOXTETH.Yggdrasil is a member of a rival crew hell bent on disrespecting the LPO. Fuck you, you cock sucking twats......LPO will have its revenge.--London Philharmonic Orchestra

 * Keep I personally know someone who was robbed by Yggdrasil... I don't think he should be considered credible in this matter being a memeber of a rival group. -LPO Forever-

 * Keep I'm not sure why some people think this is a hoax but LPO is no laughing matter. There have been rumours flying around that members of the gang are appearing in London Ont. Canada. Law enforcement officials are attributing the apparent relocation of these gang members to the record number of homicides in London this year. -Scared In London

Talk:Typhoon Paka

Super
Why is "Super" not allowed in the title? Mike H. That's hot 16:04, 30 December 2005 (UTC)

 * Other articles of typhoons have no "Super" in their title. HERB 02:01, 14 January 2006 (UTC)

 * That didn't answer the why question at all. Mike H. That's hot 02:02, 14 January 2006 (UTC)

 * If the title is to include "Super" it should do so throughout all such articles. If you want to make that change you should take up the discussion on Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject Tropical cyclones. Jdorje 03:00, 14 January 2006 (UTC)

 * I am not looking for an argument, I just wanted to know why, which nobody has answered yet. Mike H. That's hot 04:09, 14 January 2006 (UTC)

 * I agree with you Mike the word super really should be part of the name because this really was a "super" typhoon. I was there. Jer V. 19:08, 11 August 2006(EST)
 * Simple answer its not officially an STY.Jason Rees (talk) 13:10, 28 May 2010 (UTC)

Todo
More impact. Jdorje 03:00, 14 January 2006 (UTC)

Name
Shouldn't this be called Typhoon Paka (1997) since the name wasn't retired? Miss Madeline | Talk to Madeline 22:06, 30 April 2006 (UTC)

 * I think it's so rare to reuse names in the Central Pacific...I don't see it being a problem. It's not like the Atlantic where it's set to be reused every six years. Mike H. That's hot 05:32, 1 May 2006 (UTC)

Assessment
Considering how little there is here, I have reclassified this as stub-class. It needs more anything. --Core des at talk. o_O 03:36, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

Todo
A lot. Try basing this off Hurricane Ioke. – Chacor 01:26, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

Assessment
There's still little impact, and virtually no lede. Back to start-class. --Core desat 22:45, 11 August 2007 (UTC)

Good work on the article. No problems anywhere I can see. The only one there was, I fixed from a discussion on IRC. You may as well update the FTC.Mitch32contribs 18:43, 31 October 2007 (UTC)

Winds speeds in [m/s]?
"Paka struck Guam and Rota with winds of 230 km/h (145 mph), [...]"

Shouldn't wind speeds be told in m/s aswell? I.e 63 m/s. m/s is a SI-unit and is the standard unit of wind speeds in Sweden at least. I appreciate input, because it's not just here one is told wind speeds in just km/hand mph. /Tense (talk) 06:29, 25 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Australia and the Philippines use km/h, so using m/s is just superfluous. Potapych (talk) 14:00, 3 June 2009 (UTC)
 * but why should the Philippines and Austrailia dictate how the windspeed is listed? Guam, the CNMI and the Marshalls all use US standard measurements. Shouldn't the 145 mph be listed first?Rhodesisland (talk) 04:21, 28 May 2010 (UTC)
 * It's for consistency sake. All typhoon articles have km/h first. --Hurricanehink ( talk ) 18:28, 28 May 2010 (UTC)

Reference 23
Looks like the IHC folks have been using the ref 23 link for the previous year's IHC action items. This means that ref 23 is no longer a valid reference for this article, since it now refers to the 2009 IHC. 140.90.194.102 (talk) 11:48, 3 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Good catch. I replaced it with an earlier version on the wayback machine. ♬♩ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 13:12, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

PAGASA
I could identify the PAGASA name of Super Typhoon Rosie (1997 STY 10W) by 1997 Pacific typhoon season: it was Goring. But I can't still identify the PAGASA name of Super Typhoon Herb (1996 STY 10W). Maybe he has the PAGASA name ... Does anyone know the PAGASA name of Herb ? --HERB 15:16, 12 November 2005 (UTC)
