Faisal bin Fahd Al Saud (1945–1999)

Faisal bin Fahd Al Saud (فيصل بن فهد بن عبد العزيز آل سعود; 1945 – 21 August 1999) was the president of Youth Welfare in Saudi Arabia from 1975 to 1999 and a member of House of Saud.

Early life and education
Faisal bin Fahd was born in 1945. He was the eldest son of King Fahd. His mother, Al Anoud bint Abdulaziz bin Musaid, was from the Al Jiluwi branch of the Al Saud whose members intermarried with the members of the House of Saud. She was younger sister of one of Prince Sultan's spouses. Al Anoud died of kidney failure in Santa Barbara in March 1999 after a long period of treatment in Los Angeles at the age of 76. His full brothers are Mohammed bin Fahd, Saud bin Fahd, Khaled bin Fahd and Sultan bin Fahd. His full sister was Latifa bint Fahd who died in December 2013.

Faisal bin Fahd studied political science and economics at the University of California at Santa Barbara, graduating in 1971.

Career
Prince Faisal's first post was the president of Saudi fencing federation. In 1971, he was appointed as the chairman of the Saudi football federation. In July 1975, he became the president of Youth Welfare, replacing Khalid bin Faisal in the post. Faisal was promoted to the ministerial rank in 1977. He was also appointed the chairman of the Saudi Arabian olympic committee in 1975, and chairman of the Arab games federation in 1976. He was also director-general at the ministry of planning starting in 1977. After 1977, he held the rank of minister of state and was a private "emissary to Iraq." Unlike his brothers, his business activities were not intensive.

In 1981, he chaired the sports federation for Islamic solidarity, and in 1982, the international committee for the preservation of the legacy of Islamic civilization. From 1979 to his death he chaired the Kingdom's supreme committee for the merit in literature prize. He had been the chairman of the Saudi Arabian society for youth hostels since 1973. Later, he became a member of the International Olympic Committee in 1984. He was also the president of the Arabian football union, and head of the national committee on drugs control, to which he had been appointed in 1984. He served internationally as the president of the international swimming association. In 1992, he became the chairman of the Saudi federation of sports for the disabled.

Personal life
Prince Faisal had two sons, Prince Nawaf and Prince Khalid, and three daughters. His wife was Munira bint Sultan, a daughter of Sultan bin Abdulaziz who died in June 2011 at age 59. His daughter, Haifa, is the spouse of Saud bin Khalid bin Abdullah.

Death and funeral
Faisal bin Fahd died of a heart attack in King Faisal Specialist Hospital in Riyadh on 21 August 1999, shortly after returning from the Pan Arab Games held in Jordan. He was admitted to the hospital due to his heart problems a day before the death. His father, King Fahd, could not return to Saudi Arabia from Marbella to attend Faisal's funeral due to his medical condition that did not allow him to make a journey. On 21 August 1999, funeral prayers were held for him in Riyadh with the participation of then Crown Prince Abdullah, Prince Sultan, Prince Nayef and hundreds of Saudis. Mourners also included then Crown Prince Hamza of Jordan, the former Lebanese Prime Minister Rafik Hariri and Bahrain's Prime Minister, Shaikh Khalifa bin Salman, and Crown Prince, Shaikh Salman bin Hamad.

Lovehammers

Lovehammers is an American alternative rock band based in Chicago. Their sound is best described as a combination of pop-punk with grunge influences.

Since 1997, Lovehammers have independently released six full-length albums, several EPs, and one major label LP. Originally they performed under the moniker "Swinging Lovehammers", then for their self-titled major label debut (released January 2006), they were known as Marty Casey & Lovehammers. Currently they are going by "Lovehammers". They have also appeared live on VH1, playing acoustic versions of their songs: "Trees", "The Tunnel", and "The Riddle".

Beginnings
Lovehammers band members Marty Casey, Bobby Kourelis, and his younger brother Dino Kourelis became friends in 1982 when the three were on the same Little League T-Ball team in their hometown of Hickory Hills, Illinois. As young teens they formed a cover band with neighborhood friends Ben Kelly on guitar and John Murdoch as lead vocalist. They called themselves "Swinging Lovehammers". After entering college, John Murdoch left the band and Marty Casey took over as vocalist.

In 1994, they discovered Billy Sawilchik, who was playing lead guitar for a band called 9 Arms. In May 1994 they officially recruited him to become a member of Swinging Lovehammers. With this line-up in place the band began writing original material.

In 1997, Swinging Lovehammers released their first full-length album, Ultrasound. It featured an early incarnation of the band's, now signature, genre melding "un-pretentious rock" sound.

In 1999, the band released Demolition, a four-song EP recorded at DV Productions in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Demolition features the songs "Real Man", "Give It Up", "Counterfeit", and "Confusion". These songs were later re-released on the Lovehammers second LP L'Strange. The song "Rain on the Brain" was awarded a place in the John Lennon Songwriting Contest that same year.

By the year 2000, Swinging Lovehammers began to acquire a larger fanbase throughout the Midwest, winning various Battle of the Bands competitions and booking gigs at notable venues and festivals such as House of Blues, Summerfest and Lincoln's Fest. They also began receiving local radio play.

Name change and Ben Kelly's departure
Around 2000, Swinging Lovehammers' fanbase swelled and their devotees became known as 'Hammerheads.' On September 30, 2000, Swinging Lovehammers released the original version of their second album, "L'strange". By October, Mötley Crüe's Nikki Sixx reviews the band favorably, calling them "another new band to keep your eyes open for." On March 24, 2001, Swinging Lovehammers released their second EP "How We Live". It was produced by legendary indie rock impresario Steve Albini, known for his work with Nirvana, PJ Harvey and Pixies. On August 8, 2001, the band officially changed its name from Swinging Lovehammers to the simpler Lovehammers. Bass player Dino Kourelis explained the change on the band's official website: "You can call us whatever you want. Most people call us Lovehammers anyway. We will keep all names to make everyone happy. We made a little change for marketing reasons, as well as 'change is good.'" On November 6, 2001, Lovehammers re-released L'Strange complete with new cover art which reflects the name change.

In late 2003, Ben Kelly officially left the band. Marty Casey explained the departure in an informal message posted to the website: "He [Ben] was a part of this band for a long time. I can't honestly sit here and say I do not miss him.... There are only 24 hours in a day and Ben was operating on a 48 hour schedule. We wanted to put every single moment of energy into our next CD. This is what I have been building up to for my entire life. I wanted to put every moment of my life into creating the best Lovehammer CD anyone has ever heard. This requires singular focus from every person involved in the record." Billy Sawilchik became and remains the band's only lead guitarist.

On July 27, 2003, Lovehammers released their third full-length album entitled Murder on My Mind. The album featured a number of songs written by Marty Casey during his stay in New York City, including "Wait For No One",' "Better Off (Walk Away)", and "Eyes Can't See", which form a thematic trilogy.

Rockstar:INXS and major label debut
In 2005, Lovehammers were opening for Cake and Gomez on the 21 city Virgin College Mega Tour. At that time, Marty Casey was participating in ongoing auditions for the reality television show Rockstar: INXS (which aired on CBS and VH1. The show's premise was a televised singing competition between 15 contestants competing to become the lead vocalist for the Australian rock band INXS. Casey made it onto the show and quickly became a fan favorite. Despite the remaining band-members' initial apprehension, they supported Casey and could occasionally be seen in the crowd cheering him on during his performances. On September 6, 2005, Marty Casey debuted a different version of the pop-heavy Lovehammers song "Trees", which had been previously available for download on the Lovehammers website. It became an instant hit with the audience and debuted on MSN.com as a #1 download. When Marty was announced runner up, losing to Canadian singer J.D. Fortune, the Lovehammers were immediately offered a contract with Epic records and a spot as the opening band on INXS's Switched On tour.

During mid-2006, Lovehammers headlined the 'Get Live' tour. Most of the dates were quickly sold out, and the reviews were overwhelmingly favorable.

On January 24, 2006, Lovehammers released their major label debut entitled Marty Casey & Lovehammers, composed mostly of retooled versions of previously released and recorded Lovehammers tracks. The album was generally very well received by critics and fans alike.

Recent events: 2007–present
In 2007, Lovehammers recorded a live acoustic compilation CD/DVD produced by Stonecutter Records entitled Acoustic Chicago, which features unplugged tracks from various Chicago based bands. They are also in the process of writing and recording their next major-label LP. They have also organized a charity campaign called 'Shoeboxes @ Home,' which helps provide necessities for both men and women serving overseas in the military as well as military veterans in need residing in the United States.

In 2009, Lovehammers released a new album titled Heavy Crown. The album was previously set to be called 'Let Me Out,' but was later changed to Heavy Crown. The album offered a refreshing respite from today's over-compartmentalized musical climate with a different sound from previous albums. The Lovehammers challenged themselves with the writing process and sought a combination of both light and dark.

During 2009–2010 Lovehammers did some touring and released a single from Heavy Crown: "Guns". Lovehammers had decent success with "Guns", reaching #51 on Billboard's Active Rock charts. Rather than releasing another single, the band decided to take a break from touring to concentrate on song writing and building their own studio. The seeds had been planted for "Set Fire" which would be released a couple years later. Lovehammers continued to play select festivals including Summerfest, as well as the band-created Hammerfest and Hammer Cruise. In June 2009, they played a free concert at the Taste of Chicago with Wallflowers and select support slots such as KISS, Thin Lizzy, and Slash.

In preparation for their seventh album, titled "Set Fire", band members Marty Casey, Bob Kourelis, Dino Kourelis, and Billy Sawilchik took a non-traditional approach to music-making and started their own recording studio: REEP. Without the normal rush or cost of studio time, the Lovehammers were able to write and record at their own pace, allowing the creation of more music as songs evolved organically. The finished material was given to mixer Anthony Focx from Nashville (Aerosmith, Steven Tyler, Metallica, Sick Puppies, Mötley Crüe, etc.) for completion. Having built and engineered their own studio to avoid outside pressures and timelines, "Set Fire" is the hardest hitting album the Lovehammers have ever delivered. No lyric toned down, no guitar solo removed due to radio time constraints…together band members worked incessantly for 18 months to create a collection of songs that would blow their own minds.

In November 2012, Lovehammers released "Set Fire" through their record label REEP in conjunction with Fontana/INgrooves. Currently, "Set Fire" broke into 3 Billboard charts, including Billboard New Artists - #13, Billboard Heatseekers - #13 and Billboard East North Central Heatseekers Regional - #1.

In 2013, Lovehammers released the first single from "Set Fire:" "Into the Insane". It received moderate success on the Active and Modern Rock charts. "Into the Insane" reached #51 on Active Rock, and peaked at #42 on Modern Rock. Due to the success of "Set Fire" and its first single, Lovehammers decided to release a second single to Active, Modern, and Alternative Rock. They announced that this single will be "Price I Pay". Lovehammers went back into the studio with legendary rock producer Johnny K to re-record guitars, some vocals, and to re-mix "Price I Pay" for radio.

Things that aren`t aired.
I saw some information that will be aired on Impact next week! If you want to edit an article on wrestling, you must wait until everyone can know it, ie. It has been shown on TV or showed on the official website. --Soopafred 05:29, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

The Bum Rush
The article says that Chris Sabin got his name from the Final Fantasy VI character Sabin Figaro. In the game, Sabin Figaro's most powerful blitz attack is called bum rush, just like one of Chris Sabin's moves. Is this not worth mentioning as well? 83.233.58.34 23:21, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

I going to delete this section. Having a section that is not available to be put up and writing "coming soon" just looks unprofessional, and unencyclopedic.-Blackmachismo131 (talk) 04:12, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

First "professional" debut?
Article contains a slight contradiction / confusion regarding his first "professional" debut. Infobox includes a sourced date of 2001, main text notes 2000 with independent promoters. Ideally infobox and main text should convey the same information, but "2000" currently lacks a clear source. Maybe ref #3 simply ignored earlier independent events, but this would need a second source for verification. I have tagged the affected content as "citation needed". Plan B: add a footnote to "Debut" to explain the different values. GermanJoe (talk) 07:11, 12 July 2016 (UTC)

The Crossing (Star Trek: Enterprise)

"The Crossing" is the forty-fourth episode of the television series Star Trek: Enterprise, the eighteenth of the second season.

Incorporeal beings attempt to take over the Earth starship Enterprise. At the start of the episode Enterprise is taken inside an enormous alien spacecraft of unknown origin, and the aliens take over various crewmember's bodies.

Later in the episode the crew takes shelter in the catwalk, which has enhanced shielding.

Plot
While at warp speed, a huge alien vessel overtakes and swallows Enterprise, disabling the ship's engines and weapons. When the scanners register neither the alien ship nor its numerous energy-wisp-like incorporeal beings, Captain Archer takes Lieutenant Reed and Commander Tucker on an away mission to the interior. While there, Tucker is visibly "entered" by one of the beings before being returned to his normal state. Doctor Phlox's examination reveals no lingering effects.

Later, Tucker is possessed again, and is soon located in the mess hall enjoying the simple pleasures of food. When asked, the alien possessing Tucker says that they are explorers who merely want to experience the tangible nature of the corporeal state they long evolved from. In exchange, the crew would be permitted to have out of body experiences by "crossing" in to the incorporeal realm. Archer, doubtful of the aliens' intentions, demands the release of his ship, and the return of Tucker's consciousness, both of which quickly happen. Enterprise is now freed, but the engines are not operational. While making repairs, the crew starts displaying signs of possession one-by-one. Similar events occur throughout the ship, including the takeover of Reed, Ensign Sato, and 22 others.

Ensign Mayweather, pursued by one of the aliens, finds sanctuary in the nacelle catwalk area, so Archer orders the uninfected crew there. Sub-Commander T'Pol then proposes a plan to use her more disciplined mind to try to uncover the beings' intentions. Archer is opposed, but assents given that there is no alternative. T'Pol is soon overcome and discovers that the aliens plan to co-opt the 82 crew-member's bodies to save themselves from their failing ship. Archer, T'Pol and Phlox then hatch a plan to forcibly expel the beings by asphyxiating the infected crew. Though he has some trouble with an infected Tucker, Phlox is able to reach the atmospheric controls and floods the ship with carbon dioxide, and the aliens are forced to return to their ship. When the alien ship attempts to pursue Enterprise, Archer destroys it with two torpedoes.

Production
Rick Berman described the episode as a "heavy science fiction episode that I'm very pleased with. That's the one with our 'wisps' that will remind people of the [alien clouds] from The Original Series."

The episode was filmed over seven days. Existing standing sets were used, including the Bridge, Ready Room, Mess Hall, Engineering, Corridors, and The Catwalk sets were also reused. A part of the alien vessel was constructed and extended using greenscreen and computer-generated imagery in post production.

Reception
The Crossing was first broadcast April 2, 2003 on UPN. It had an average of 3.9 million viewers.

Michelle Erica Green at TrekToday was shocked at Archer blowing up the aliens compared to how she thought other Star Trek captains might have handled them. While she praised the special effects, "the shots of the alien ship," and the "details of Enterprise's innards" she said it was a "depressing outing for humanity's first encounter with non-corporeal aliens." Jammer's Reviews gave "The Crossing" 2 of 4 stars, saying in brief that its "early promise" quickly became "an overbaked stew of routine silliness". Jamahl Epsicokhan said what began "as epic, great-looking sci-fi" in its first act "hinting at...an interesting...truly different...life form...looking back at [corporeal] existence" was "promising material", but it turns into "a downhill slide, with a hostile invasion-of-the-body-snatchers" that ultimately ends up "recycling lame-brained Trek clichés." Television Without Pity gave the episode a grade C. In his 2022 rewatch, Keith DeCandido of Tor.com gave it 3 out of 10.

This episode was nominated for an Emmy Award for Outstanding Special Visual Effects for a Series.

Canamar

"Canamar" is the forty-third episode of the science fiction television series Star Trek: Enterprise, the seventeenth of the second season (production #217).

Mistaken for smugglers, Captain Archer and Commander Tucker find themselves on a prisoner transport ship.

Canamar is the name of the Enolian penal colony. The episode also features Sub-commander T'Pol, and alien prisoner Kuroda (Mark Rolston).

Plot
Upon leaving the Enolian homeworld, Captain Archer and Commander Tucker are mistakenly identified as smugglers and arrested. They are placed on a prison transport headed for the penal colony known as Canamar. Among their fellow prisoners is a man named Kuroda, and a hulking Nausicaan. Back on Enterprise, Sub-Commander T'Pol, having found the abandoned shuttlepod, manages to convince an Enolian official that Archer and Tucker are innocent. Just as they are about to be released, however, Kuroda breaks free and takes down the guard and pilot.

When the vessel comes under attack from Enolian patrol ships, Archer convinces Kuroda to allow Tucker to assist them. Tucker manages to create a plasma cloud diversion, allowing the transport to jump to warp. Kuroda is impressed with Archer's ploy. In fact, Kuroda has come to respect Archer and asks him to join him on his next endeavor. As the two men talk, Kuroda reveals that he was 14 when he first spent time in a penal colony. He was innocent, but he still spent five years in prison, and started making a living as a criminal after he was released. Kuroda also finally reveals that they will rendezvous with another ship at Tamaal and destroy the transport. Archer, determined to save the other prisoners, enlists Tucker's aid.

Tucker is freed under the pretext of fixing a docking hatch, and manages to render the Nausicaan unconscious, but draws the attention of Kuroda, who realizes that Archer has been plotting against him all along. The transport soon docks, but when the doors open, Lieutenant Reed and Ensign Mayweather appear. The crew evacuate the transport, which is now in a decaying orbit, but Kuroda refuses to leave. Back on Enterprise, the Enolian official demands a report for his superiors. Archer tersely informs the official that he and Tucker were falsely arrested, and wonders how many others on their way to Canamar do not belong there.

Production
The episode was directed by Allan Kroeker. It was written by John Shiban who previous wrote the episodes "Minefield" and "Dawn". The story idea had originally been part of the episode Judgment where Archer was sentenced to a Klingon penal colony but Brannon Braga liked "Archer on a prison transport" concept so much he wanted to make it into a separate episode, which eventually became "Canamar".

Filming took eight days in two blocks, six days from December 13 to December 20 and after the holidays another two days on Monday and Tuesday, January 5 and January 6, 2003. The majority of the regular cast finished after two days of filming, Bakula and Trinneer were required for the entire shoot, most of which took place on the Enolian prison ship.

Guest star Mark Rolston who played Kuroda, previously appeared as "Lieutenant Pierce" in The Next Generation episode '"Eye of the Beholder". He found the fight scenes strenuous, and said "Scott [Bakula] and I must have spent ten hours filming the fights. And let me tell you, both of us are in our forties now so it's not quite as easy as it used to be."

Brian Tyler composed the score for the episode (and the episode Regeneration later in the season). Tyler previously scored the Sci-Fi channel mini-series Frank Herbert's Children of Dune and had replaced composer Jerry Goldsmith on the film Timeline. Some of his work had been used as a temp track and the producers decided to ask him if he would score the episode. As a Star Trek fan he agreed, with the added condition that he also get a full tour of the "Enterprise" set.

Reception
Canamar was first broadcast February 26, 2003 on UPN. It had an average of 4.10 million viewers.

Michelle Erica Green at TrekToday called it "a decent action hour, and then it's over" summing up that it's not "offering much subtextual commentary on prison" and not moving "Trek's social agenda" nor "breaking new...ground...showing the gritty sides of main characters." Green said it "feels like a merger of Next Gen 's 'Gambit' and Voyager 's 'The Chute'" noting that "the action is well-paced and engrossing" while crediting the "good guest performances and excellent directing." Jammer's Reviews rated this 2 out of 4 stars with a brief summation of an "excellent lesson in how to spin your wheels." Jamahl Epsicokhan called it "formulaic action fluff" even though admitting it was "handsomely produced" and "slickly directed."

The Digital Fix said this episode was "fun" and compared it to a theatrical movie.

In his 2022 rewatch, Keith DeCandido of Tor.com gave it 4 out of 10.

Awards
The episode was nominated for an Emmy Award in the category Outstanding Makeup For A Series (Prosthetic), but lost to Primetime Glick.

Home media release
This episode was released for home media use on DVD as part of the second series box set of Star Trek: Enterprise. Season Two was released on Blu-ray Disc August 20, 2013.

The result of the debate was no consensus. But since the split was between merging and deleting, I'll do a redirect myself to Final Fantasy SGI demo. If anyone wants to merge content there, feel free to go through the history and do so. · Katefan0(scribble) 19:52, 14 October 2005 (UTC)

Final Fantasy N64
Badly written, and no pages get here. Maybe move content to FFVI page.(the website in the page, I´ve already seen something about it...) igordebraga ≠ 00:00, 2 October 2005 (UTC) (oh, I just found out:ALREADY EXISTS!)

Joaquin Murietta 00:24, 2 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep! Here are my reasons.
 * It is a pre-release stub for a new game, where the other games in the series have articles. E.g. final fantasyFinal Fantasy VII etc. etc. & etc. We should allow this article to develop.
 * The VfD was added a less than 20 hours after the article was started. The article was started on 05:22, 1 October 2005.
 * It is easy for the non-gamers to dismiss all these games. I mean, people just spend hours on them instead of doing something constructive like browsing E-bay or www.woot.com.
 * We need to welcome these young people and not view their musings as less important than Iressa or GIST. These young slackers are our future. They are the future of Wikipedia. One day, when our arthritic fingers fail to connect with the correct key on the keyboard, when our eyesights collectively fail and our brains turn to mush, gamers with access to pre-released games, young ones like  User:FlareNUKE will continue to post. Word after word. Article after article. Wikipedia will be saved by the teenie bopper gamers.
 * Comment: I don't think it's a pre-release; but rather, a game that was once to be released, but was not . HollyAm 00:34, 2 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep It needs certainly work and linkage, but so do most articles when they start out. Sonic Mew | talk to me 00:37, 2 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Redirect per Seancdaug. Sonic Mew | talk to me 13:16, 8 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep: Unreleased or not, it's still a game ( Sonic X-treme ) --FlareNUKE 07:12, 2 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Changing to merge with the demo thing, sorry, didn't know it existed :( --FlareNUKE 07:08, 8 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Delete Private Butcher 02:35, 2 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge or Delete It never been released and never will be that now that N64 dont make games no more. Maybe merge the content to Final Fantasy beacuse this dont deserve an article on its own --JAranda | yeah 02:46, 2 October 2005 (UTC)
 * What about all the other games consoles out there? Granted, a redirect may be needed in the future, but the Final Fantasy line continues. Sonic Mew | talk to me 04:22, 2 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge with Final Fantasy VII. However, there is also compelling evidence for a delete:  "Final Fantasy N64 SGI Demo" gets only 23 hits on Google, and three big VG websites have the exact same writeup about it.  -- Grev -- Talk 07:17, 2 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete - I remember this demo. It shows Locke and the rest of the Final Fantasy VI people in 3D. I don't see how you can write an article about just a demo/speculation. --J. Nguyen 15:21, 2 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete per User:J. Nguyen. -Nameneko 18:51, 2 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete Games that were never released are not notable. This information could best be merged into one sentence on the main Final Fantasy article, as "A Final Fantasy game for the N64 was planned by Squaresoft, but was soon abandoned after Squaresoft decided to join Sony and work on Final Fantasy VII." --Revolución (talk) 19:30, 2 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete per Revolución and Grev. And by the by, the people that write fancruft could start saving WP now if they'd just stop.

Up with RickK and his ilk. --Blackcap | talk 22:02, 2 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete as it stands. Conjectural and uncertain. If it is "a game that was once to be released, but was not" then Aboslutely delete. That it was nominated in 20 minutes is not a fault. We should be careful at the door. Marskell 00:22, 3 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete--Rogerd 05:59, 3 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete or Merge as above (with merge as preference) -- Ryan Norton T 09:23, 4 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete or Redirect - This either needs to be deleted or redirected to Final Fantasy VII or better yet Final Fantasy SGI demo. ~ Hibana 19:00, 4 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Redirect. The entire thing is a poorly researched bastardization of content already present at Final Fantasy SGI demo: not only does it duplicate information present in the aforementioned article, but it presents fannish speculation as fact. To wit, it is a technical demo, not a "game that was once to be released, but was not," and was never tied to the Nintendo 64. The only connection it had to that console is that the SGI workstations used to produce it had some technical similarities to the N64 hardware. Any statement beyond that, particularly without references to support it, is speculation. – Seancdaug 19:56, 4 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep and expand. It is an interesting article about an unreleased game. Carioca 22:45, 4 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge the content to Final Fantasy SGI demo and expand, if possible. Redirect Final Fantasy 64 to Final Fantasy SGI demo. Carioca 02:56, 7 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Changing to merge with Final Fantasy SGI demo. It's... Thelb4! 06:53, 5 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete Keep the content and move it to FFVII or FFVI, or better yet, both. Maybe a mention on the Final Fantasy overview page as well. It doesn't need it's own page by any stretch of the imagination. Coyote-37 10:15, 6 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Changing my vote to merge with Final Fantasy SGI demo. --Merovingian (t) (c) 07:59, 7 October 2005 (UTC)

CKRN-DT

CKRN-DT (branded on-air as Radio-Canada Télévision CKRN) was a privately owned Ici Radio-Canada Télé-affiliated television station licensed to Rouyn-Noranda, Quebec, Canada, which essentially functioned as a semi-satellite of Montreal Radio-Canada flagship station CBFT-DT due to not having alternative non-network sources of programming available. It broadcast a digital signal on VHF channel 9 (or virtual channel 4.1 via PSIP) from a transmitter near Chemin Powell (north of Route 101) in Rouyn-Noranda.

Formerly owned by RNC Media, it was a sister station to TVA outlet CFEM-DT and Val-d'Or V (now Noovo) outlet CFVS-DT, and all three shared studios located on Avenue Murdoch and Avenue de la Saint Anne in Rouyn-Noranda. On cable, CKRN was available on Câblevision du Nord de Québec channel 7 and digital channel 411.

History
The station commenced broadcasting on December 25, 1957 as then-Radio-Nord's first television station, sharing its callsign with its radio sister station, CKRN AM 1400 (now CHOA-FM 96.5). It was originally a dual affiliate of Radio-Canada and the English language CBC. The CBC subsequently launched a rebroadcaster in Malartic of its English Montreal affiliate CBMT in the area in 1961, CBVD-TV channel 5, and CKRN dropped its English programming in 1962.

On March 1, 2018, it was announced that CKRN would cease broadcasting at midnight on March 25. RNC announced it wanted to concentrate its efforts on CFEM and CFVS. The shutdown of CKRN left Ici Radio-Canada Télé without an over-the-air outlet in the Abitibi-Témiscamingue region.

Surf's Up (film)

Surf's Up is a 2007 American animated mockumentary comedy film produced by Columbia Pictures and Sony Pictures Animation, and distributed by Sony Pictures Releasing. It was directed by Ash Brannon and Chris Buck from a screenplay they co-wrote with Don Rhymer and producer Chris Jenkins, based on a story by Jenkins and Christian Darren. The film stars the voices of Shia LaBeouf, Jeff Bridges, Zooey Deschanel, Jon Heder, and James Woods. It is a parody of surfing documentaries, such as The Endless Summer and Riding Giants, with parts of the plot parodying North Shore. Real-life surfers Kelly Slater and Rob Machado have vignettes as their penguin surfer counterparts. To obtain the desired hand-held documentary feel, the film's animation team motion-captured a physical camera operator's moves.

Surf's Up was released in the United States on June 8, 2007, by Sony Pictures Releasing, and received generally positive reviews from critics, with praise for the animation and humor. The film grossed $152 million worldwide against a budget of $100 million. It was nominated for Best Animated Feature at the 80th Academy Awards. A sequel, titled Surf's Up 2: WaveMania, was released direct-to-video in the United States on January 17, 2017, and theatrical in select countries.

Plot
In a mockumentary, teenage northern rockhopper penguin Cody Maverick, living in Shiverpool, Antarctica, with his mother Edna and his older brother Glen, has dreamed of becoming a professional surfer ever since meeting the famous surfer emperor penguin Zeke “Big Z” Topanga many years ago. When talent scout shorebird Michael Abromowitz arrives to find entrants for the Big Z Memorial surfing competition on Pen-Gu Island, Cody manages to prove his worthiness. En route to the contest, Cody befriends another entrant, Chicken Joe, a genial but slow-witted rooster surfer from Sheboygan, Wisconsin.

The entrants arrive at Pen-Gu Island, where Cody meets and immediately falls in love with Lani Aliikai, a female gentoo penguin who is a lifeguard. He also meets the mean-spirited king penguin Tank "The Shredder" Evans, who has won the contest nine times since it was first held after Big Z's presumed death during a previous match ten years ago. Cody sees Tank vandalizing Big Z's memorial and furiously challenges him to a duel. Tank wins while Cody nearly drowns and is stung by a sea urchin named Ivan, breaking a number of his spines. Lani rescues him and takes him to her uncle Geek, to help Cody recover from his injuries. Cody wakes up, but cannot find the souvenir necklace given to him by Big Z. Geek then finds it in his hut.

While returning the necklace, Geek finds Cody sitting on a koa log and offers to help him make a surfboard. They attempt to take the log back to Geek's house, only to lose control of it and end up on a beach far away from the house. When Cody gets to the beach, he discovers a shack full of old trophies and surfboards, which used to belong to Big Z. After observing Geek walking solemnly into the shack, he realizes that Geek is actually Big Z himself. Excited, Cody asks him to teach him how to surf. Big Z reluctantly agrees, but tells Cody he has to make his own board first.

The attempt goes disastrously, however, as an eager Cody refuses to listen to Big Z's advice and crafts a rough and unstable board that shatters upon hitting the water. Exasperated, Cody storms off and runs into Lani, who eventually persuades him to return. Cody spends the night working patiently on a new board.

Big Z compliments Cody on his new board, and Cody is ready to start training. Big Z instead has him do menial tasks seemingly unrelated to surfing. Finally, when Cody starts having fun, Big Z and Lani teach him how to surf the waves. Afterward, Cody asks Big Z if he will come to watch the competition, but he refuses, revealing that he faked his death because he realized he couldn't compete with his new rival Tank, and that he had become too focused on winning. Angry that his own idol gave up, Cody throws the necklace into the sea, meets up with Joe, and gets back to the competition just as it begins.

Tank makes it to the finals, as do Cody and Joe. In the semifinals, Tank battles with Cody, with Tank trying to knock him off his board, but Tank falls off his own board and loses. During the finals, however, Tank appears and tries to throw Joe off his board. Cody intervenes at the last minute, sending himself and Tank into an area of the beach known as the Boneyards, which consists of dangerously sharp rock outcroppings and has killed many surfers who have ventured there. Tank punches Cody off his board before crashing and is rescued by Lani. Big Z, who had secretly been watching Cody's performance, rescues Cody from a gigantic wave and helps him get back to the beach safely.

Big Z and Cody find out that Joe won by default since Tank and Cody were disqualified. However, Cody accepts the loss, having decided he would rather just have fun instead. Big Z reveals himself to the spectators and invites all of them to surf at his beach, where he joins Cody in tube-riding. Cody finishes his interview with a reflection of the past events and then joins the rest of his friends in the water.

Music
Surf's Up: Music from the Motion Picture was released on June 5, 2007. The following 14 songs are on the Sony's official film soundtrack.

According to the film's end credits, the version of "Wipe Out" heard in the film is actually performed by the punk band The Queers. The official soundtrack includes this version under the pseudonym "Big Nose", presumably for marketing purposes. Two songs by Green Day, "Welcome to Paradise" (the version from the album “Dookie”) and "Holiday" in an instrumental version, are used for background music in the film. Neither song appears on the official soundtrack album. In the primary teaser trailer, the song "Get on Top" by the Red Hot Chili Peppers can be heard in the background. "Welcome to Paradise" was also used in the second trailer promoting Surf's Up, as well as "Three Little Birds" by Sean Paul featuring Ziggy Marley. The DVD and Blu-ray behind-the-scenes featurette entitled "Making Waves" features the song "The Water", performed by Venice. This also does not appear on the "Surf's Up" soundtrack, but can be found on Venice's "Garage Demos Part 2: Fast Stuff" CD.

Surf's Up: Original Ocean Picture Score was composed for the film by Mychael Danna and it was released on a limited edition (of a thousand units) 23-track CD.

Marketing
To promote the film's release, surfboard wax bearing the film's logo and a rendering of Cody was given out at the 2006 San Diego Comic-Con. It was attached to Open Season, which came out on September 29, 2006. On June 8, 2007, McDonald's issued eight Surf's Up toys in their Happy Meals for one month. In the Australian market, a few small plush characters of Cody, Lani, Chicken Joe, and Geek replace some of the toys in the US lineup. There was also a tie-in with the candy Airheads which introduces a "New Wave" flavor (pineapple) and four collectible lenticular motion surf board shaped pieces. Build A Bear stores sold plush toys of the film's protagonist, Cody Maverick. Patrons could "build" their own Cody as well as dress him up in an array of surf-themed clothing and other accessories in Build A Bear workshops. They could also purchase Cody and accessories at the official site. Several plushes from Nanco intended for claw machines can also be found and purchased in varying sizes (from 6 inches to 11 inches to 17 inches). Characters available: Cody, Lani, Tank, Geek, Big Z, Chicken Joe, and Reggie Belefonte. A rare set of larger (Geek measures 15 inches) and higher quality plushes had been made available at the premiere's after party. Won either through available games, or given away with gift sets for attendees. Cody, Lani, Arnold and Geek were created and so far no plans for the dolls to be sold commercially have appeared. A series of children's 100 piece puzzles are available as well depicting various characters and setups. Five inch waterproof plush tub toys released by Jakks Pacific in minimal quantities to most major retailers. Five characters were produced, including Cody, Tank, Big Z, Arnold, & Chicken Joe. Each character has an attached washcloth/surfboard, but sport questionable likenesses (and in the case of Chicken Joe, entirely off model, bearing more of a resemblance to Mikey). Along with the release of the film, a companion Surf's Up video game was released by Ubisoft for all the current video gaming systems on the market. All versions of the game are the same with mild graphical differences, with only the Nintendo DS version changing the overall format.

Home media
Surf's Up was released on Blu-ray, UMD Video and DVD in the United States on October 9, 2007. The DVD and Blu-ray included two animated short films: The ChubbChubbs! and The ChubbChubbs Save Xmas, the latter of which premiered with this release.

Critical response
Surf's Up has a 79% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes based on 147 reviews; the average rating is 6.67/10. The site's consensus reads: "Surf's Up is a laid-back, visually stunning animated movie that brings a fresh twist to some familiar conventions. Its witty mockumentary format is fun and inventive, and the CGI is breathtakingly realistic." Metacritic gave the film a score of 64 out of 100 based on 26 reviews. Audiences surveyed by CinemaScore gave the film a grade "A−" on scale of A+ to F.

Some reviews noted that in spite of it coming so soon after many films featuring penguins (March of the Penguins, Madagascar, and Happy Feet), Surf's Up was able to stand out on its own. Roger Ebert of the Chicago Sun-Times reviewed: "The originality of the documentary format coupled with the splendid CGI effects qualifies Surf's Up as not just another penguin movie." The Dallas Morning News critic Nancy Churnin agreed: "Sorry, cynics, Surf's Up is a charmer. And if the birds look somewhat familiar, they have something fresh to say about friendship and what winning is all about." While James Berardinelli of ReelViews said: "If you have to see one penguin movie, this is it", Roger Moore of Orlando Sentinel gave the film a positive score, noting that it was "beautifully animated, terrifically acted and edited in a way that hilariously mimics those Endless Summer surf documentaries." Conversely, Bill Muller, The Arizona Republic's critic, disliked almost everything: "From the nondescript voices to routine animation to an over-written story, this movie spends much of its time gasping for air."

Box office
The film opened at number four and grossed $5,804,772 at the box office on its opening day in North America. It grossed $17,640,249 in its opening weekend. The film grossed $58,867,694 in North America, and $93,138,019 in the other territories, making the total worldwide gross $152,005,713.

Sequel
A direct-to-video sequel, titled Surf's Up 2: WaveMania, was released on January 17, 2017. The film stars WWE superstars John Cena, Triple H, The Undertaker, Vince McMahon, and Paige.

Future Tense (Star Trek: Enterprise)

"Future Tense" is the 42nd episode (production #216) of the television series Star Trek: Enterprise, the 16th of the second season. Set in the 22nd century of the Star Trek universe, a spaceship and its crew deal with aliens as they explore space.

The NX-01 Enterprise finds a derelict ship, apparently from the future, and is attacked by Suliban, and later Tholian, ships seeking its possession.

This episode aired on UPN on February 19, 2003. It was written by Mike Sussman and Phyllis Strong, and directed by James Whitmore, Jr.. Vaughn Armstrong guest stars as the Admiral Forrest, and the episode has additional music done by composer Dennis McCarthy.

Plot
The discovery of a derelict pod with a long-dead human pilot opens up a mystery. Some of the crew speculate he is the first human to invent warp drive technology, Zefram Cochrane, but DNA profiling reveal the remains are not his. Commander Tucker and Lieutenant Reed examine the mysterious pod and discover, via a floor panel, that it is larger on the inside than the outside. They also recover a device from the core which still has a weak energy signature. Shortly afterwards, a Suliban ship arrives and claims salvage rights, but Captain Archer refuses to yield it without explanation. They open fire, and beam in a boarding party, but are finally repelled.

Undaunted, Enterprise then sets course to rendezvous with Tal'Kir, a Vulcan ship. Doctor Phlox's scans reveal the dead pilot has multi-generational DNA fragments from several alien species including Vulcan, Terrelian, and Rigelian. Seeking answers, Archer and Sub-Commander T'Pol enter time-traveler Agent Daniels' cabin, and they learn from his encyclopedic database that the pod is from the 31st century. Meanwhile, Tucker and Reed, on returning to the pod, get stuck in a recurring time-loop. This heightens T'Pol's concerns and she discusses the situation with Archer, who feels they must have more information on the Temporal Cold War.

Tholians arrive, demanding the pod and warning Enterprise of temporal radiation. Again, Archer refuses, and they leave after he threatens to destroy it. The crew, reaching the rendezvous destination, discover that the Tholians have disabled the Tal'Kir, and soon disable Enterprise as well. The Suliban arrive and a battle ensues between them and the Tholians. The Tholians succeed in destroying the Suliban ships. After working through another time-loop, Archer and Reed booby-trap the pod and send it out into space, but the Tholians immediately disarm the device. Tucker then gets the temporal distress beacon to power up, and soon the future ship and its contents dematerialize. The Tholians leave, and Enterprise assists the Vulcan ship, as Archer's way of thanking the Vulcan High Command for their support and help.

Production
The episode was originally titled "Crash Landing" before it was changed to "Future Tense".

Director James Whitmore, Jr. previously directed the episode "Acquisition". Whitmore has also directed episodes of 24, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, The X-Files and many other shows.

The episode mostly used existing sets. A new set was built for the remains of the salvaged vessel, and a wall for the Suliban ship shown on the viewscreen.

Reception
"Future Tense" was first broadcast February 19, 2003, on UPN. It had a Nielsen ratings share of 	2.9/4. It had a total average audience of 	 4.62 million viewers.

Higgy Pop noted this episode as one of the time travel stories of the Star Trek franchise. The review also compares the spacecraft they discover to the TARDIS of the Doctor Who television show, noting, "The pod and the Doctor's TARDIS are both bigger on the inside than the outside, and able to travel across time."

Jammer's Reviews described the episode as "hardly informative or conclusive" but "pretty fun." Jamahl Epsicokhan said that the plot didn't "supply much that's tangible" to the temporal cold war story arc. He saw it more as "a means to an end — the means being the story-line and the end being sci-fi action" concluding that the "ideal situation" would have the "particular elements of means and end reversed."

The Digital Fix said that "Future Tense" was "one of the highlights of the season" and noted how it connected to the temporal war story arc, begun earlier in the series.

In his 2022 rewatch, Keith DeCandido of Tor.com gave it 3 out of 10.

Releases
The first home media release of "Future Tense" was as part of the season two DVD box set, released in the United States on July 26, 2005. A release on Blu-ray Disc for season two occurred on August 20, 2013.

What about the journal _History_? It is a professional journal that has been published since 1912 - it is the _the_ journal of the Historical Association and deserves a mention in this article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.183.86.65 (talk) 22:23, 22 May 2010 (UTC)

May I suggest a merger of the page History (journal) with this page? -Historical Association? This does not seem to carry any stand-alone weight. Fortuna Imperatrix Mundi  14:50, 20 August 2015 (UTC)

 * Oppose – These are two distinct and well-established entities, one an organization established in 1906 and the other a journal established in 1916. Even if connected, they are of sufficient note and long-standing to have separate articles, IMHO. For me, any publication in existence for almost a hundred years is likely to be considered "notable". — Jonathan Bowen (talk) 15:33, 20 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Neutral While Jpbowen is most likely correct that both entities will turn out to be notable, that does not mean that we absolutely must have two separate articles. As it is, both articles are pretty short (and academic journals being what they are, it's very well possible that the article in the journal will be difficult to expand), so merging them might result in a "meatier" article. With appropriate redirects in place, I don't see any disadvantage to such an approach. --Randykitty (talk) 15:42, 20 August 2015 (UTC)
 * I do; separate articles means the appropriate categories for each can be included. — Jonathan Bowen (talk) 16:13, 23 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Don't see why those cats cannot be added to the combined article, we do that with other articles, too. --Randykitty (talk) 17:04, 23 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Or categorize the redirect itself. fgnievinski (talk) 22:47, 23 August 2015 (UTC)

 * Merge: unless the journal's notability is demonstrated; see Notability (academic journals) for background. I noticed that it doesn't carry an Impact Factor from Thomson Reuters, but I also note that's the case for most journals in List_of_history_journals. At least indexing information is necessary (although not sufficient for notability); please see WikiProject_Academic_Journals/Writing_guide. fgnievinski (talk) 16:54, 20 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Took me less than a minute to verify that the journal is indexed in Scopus, meeting NJournals. --Randykitty (talk) 17:10, 20 August 2015 (UTC)
 * First, I meant it needed (still needs) demonstration in the body of the article. Second, I thought you considered indexing in Scopus (a non-selective biblio db) insufficient proof of notability? fgnievinski (talk) 18:10, 20 August 2015 (UTC)
 * While I personally don't like Scopus very much, that personal preference is not the current consensus, which is that Scopus indexing is enough to meet NJournals. And for this merge discussion, it's not so much important what actually is in the article, as what could be in the article. --Randykitty (talk) 18:17, 20 August 2015 (UTC)

 * Comment: I have added Scopus information to History (journal) with a reference, thus demonstrating WP:NJournals notability under Criterion 1 following Note 1. — Jonathan Bowen (talk) 15:13, 31 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Oppose: the journal and the association are conceptually distinct, even though the one is in some sense dependent on the other. Can the tag be removed from the article now? --Andreas Philopater (talk) 20:22, 27 December 2015 (UTC)
 * FYI - they are not 'in some sense dependent' on each other; the journal is the journal of the society. It belongs to it, not the converse. O Fortuna!  ...Imperatrix mundi.  14:43, 1 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Not sure what point you are trying to make. The one being dependent on the other in no way makes the two conceptually equivalent. --Andreas Philopater (talk) 14:53, 1 January 2017 (UTC)
