Heroes of the West (1932 film) | Plot overview | Plot overview
John Blaine – helped by his teenaged son and daughter, Noah and Ann – work to build a section of a transcontinental railroad "through the heart of the wild and wooly west." Their section threads through Wyoming territory, dangerously close to hostile Indians. In addition to tribulations inherent in the Old West, work is hindered by crooked foreman Rance Judd, who is "secretly in the pay of a rival contractor and aims to make Blaine lose his government railroad contract by fouling up construction in any way he can" with help from his henchmen Butch Gore, Bart Eaton, and Buckskin Joe. Blaine is aided by a group of men also working on the railroad: surveyor Tom Crosby, scout Noah Blaine, and rail crew leader Bart Eaton. Together, our heroes must battle skullduggery from Judd's henchmen, stagecoach problems, saloon brawls, horse stampedes, train robberies, Indian attacks, and other perils "to complete the line on time."
As is typical in serial films, each episode ends on a cliff-hanger. For example: after a tremendous fight in an old trapper's cabin, the cabin catches on fire and burns down with our heroes still inside; however, the next episode shows how they escaped the fire through a secret tunnel in the cabin floor. |

L'Astrée | Short description | thumb|right
L'Astrée is a pastoral novelSee also: "Arcadia", Jacopo Sannazaro by Honoré d'Urfé, published between 1607 and 1627.
Possibly the single most influential work of 17th-century French literature, L'Astrée has been called the "novel of novels", partly for its immense length (six parts, forty stories, sixty books in 5,399 pages) but also for the success it had throughout Europe: it was translated into a great number of languages and read at every royal court. Even today, this novel is regularly republished, both in full and in abridged edition, and even in comic book form. The first three parts were published in 1607, 1610 and 1619; after Honoré d'Urfé's death in 1625 the fourth was completed by Balthazar Baro, and a fifth and sixth were supplied in 1626 by Pierre Boitel, sieur de Gaubertin.The attribution to "Borstet" is a frequent mistake caused by a misprint in Lenglet Du Fresnoy's De l'usage des romans (1735). The last two are often counted as one.
The plot is immensely complex, but the main thread of the storyline is the perfect love between a shepherd and shepherdess of fifth-century Forez, the heroine Astrée (named after Astræa) and her lover Céladon. Céladon, who was frequently described as wearing grayish-green ribbons and a matching coat, gave his name to the colour celadon, the ceramic celadon, and mineral celadonite. The perfidies and political ambitions of the other characters, which result in many misadventures for the couple, occupy the greater proportion of the novel, which is frequently interrupted by digressions into stories that are strictly unrelated but which serve to flesh out the world in which they live. D'Urfé's descriptions of Forez are sufficiently detailed for many locations to be identified without ambiguity. Visitors to Boën can today follow the chemins de l'Astrée ("paths of Astrée") by visiting the Grand Pré in the grounds of d'Urfé's old estate.
The most important editions are those of 1733, 1925 and 2006. A film version, Les Amours d'Astrée et de Céladon, by Éric Rohmer, was made in 2007. An opera by Gérard Pesson was performed in 2006 at the Stuttgart Opera, and in 2009 in Paris.
In his work The social destiny of man: or, Theory of the four movements, Charles Fourier discussed celadony (l'amour Céladonique), describing it as purely spiritual love embodied by Céladon in L'Astrée.Beecher, Jonathan (1990).

Norman Greenfield | Use British English | Charles Norman Greenfield (4 April 1907 – 17 September 1997) was an English fireman with the Manchester City Fire Brigade who precipitated a significant legal case in British trade union history, particularly regarding the Fire Brigades Union (FBU).
Until 1938, the Manchester Fire Brigade had been part of the Manchester City Police and its members attested as police constables, a common practice in the early 20th century. In 1938 it became an independent organisation, but firemen who had joined before that time continued to be police constables and answerable to the Chief Constable in disciplinary matters. The Chief Constable also continued officially to be the Director of the Fire Brigade.
The Barnsley-born Greenfield was an experienced First Class Fireman who had been a member of the brigade for some years and was therefore an attested police constable. As such, he was not permitted to join the FBU or any other trade union. However, he took an interest in the welfare of his fellow firemen and particularly of the wartime members of the Auxiliary Fire Service, whose conditions were often extremely poor. He was one of the four members of the board of representatives, the body which had replaced the Police Federation in the fire brigade after 1938. He urged the AFS members to join the FBU, which, not being police officers, they were entitled to do. On 5 November 1940, Greenfield wrote to John Horner, General Secretary of the FBU, informing him of these conditions and enclosing 28 membership application forms from members of the AFS. However, Horner had recently moved and the letter was returned to sender on 9 November. Greenfield had listed his return address as "Fire Station, Manchester 10", his own station, but the letter was returned simply to "The Fire Station, Manchester" and delivered to headquarters.
On 19 November 1940, Greenfield was summoned before John Maxwell, the Chief Constable of Manchester, and charged with three disciplinary offences: acting in a manner likely to bring discredit upon the force; unauthorised communication with a person not connected with the fire brigade; and divulging to that person fire brigade matters. Maxwell listened to his explanation of his conduct, and then dismissed him on the spot. Greenfield appealed, as was his right, to the Watch Committee, the police force's governing body. However, after making his appeal he was asked to leave the room while they deliberated; Maxwell was allowed to stay while the committee deliberated an appeal against his own decision. Unsurprisingly, the appeal was dismissed.
The FBU demanded the return of the letter and membership forms, but Maxwell refused. In response, the FBU took him to court, demanding the return of their property and damages for its wrongful detention. The case, described as "unique in legal history","Chief Constable to Return Documents: Successful Action by Trade Union", The Times, 27 February 1941 was heard in Manchester County Court on 26 February 1941 before Judge Thomas Bowes Leigh. Donald McIntyre appeared for the union and D. P. Dingle, Deputy Town Clerk of Manchester, for the Chief Constable. Dingle made much of the fact that Greenfield had headed his letter "Dear Comrade", implying that this showed communist sympathies.
The judge found in favour of the FBU. He ordered that the letter and forms be returned immediately and that the Chief Constable pay £5 damages for their detention. He also awarded costs against the Chief Constable on the highest possible scale.
Greenfield was invited to speak at the annual conference of the FBU in London later that year and was greeted with massive applause. After being dismissed he had obtained a position (and a promotion) as Fourth Officer with Barnsley Borough Fire Brigade. As this was a civilian brigade, he was entitled to join the FBU, and was later elected to the Executive Council.
The Greenfield case strengthened the rights to join a trade union and was one of the final nails in the coffin of the system of police-controlled fire brigades. |

Sorry, I can't really understand what you're saying. Can you clarify? —METS501 (talk) 18:17, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
See Wikipedia:WikiProject Spam/LinkSearchWikipedia:WikiProject Spam/Report Wikipedia:WikiProject Spam/LinkSearch/List Betacommand (talk • contribs • Bot) 07:35, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
Personally, I'm as wise as before. What's it currently doing? What extension are you proposing? How's it going to do it? At first sight this looks like you're requesting approval for a spider to exhaustively search for spam links, but I'm hoping that's not the case. Alai 07:34, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
It's not a spider users who are part of Wikipedia:WPSPAM Identify spamed domains and BCbot tracks the spamed domains and assist in identifying common targets for a given domain and provides a linksearch history for given spammer. Betacommand (talk • contribs • Bot) 18:00, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
I'm still struggling to follow your explanation (if explanation that was). Looking at the history of Wikipedia:WikiProject Spam/LinkSearch/zazzle.com, I see that BCD a) BCB created the initial list, and b) periodically deletes items, and c) periodically adds new items. Are all three of these activities covered by this BRFA? If so, how are you doing each? The b) part seems clearest, as I assume it's done by periodically checking to see if each page on the list has been deleted or despammed, but if a) and c) were to be automated, I'd be guessing as to how. (Come to that, I'm rather guessing here in general, and would prefer "Function Details" that wasn't so unclear, if not open-ended, in the first place.) Alai 03:19, 14 March 2007 (UTC)
Step one anyone in #wikipedia-spam finds a spammer they request BCbot to do a linksearch. if BCbot has a hit it A.) adds the name to Wikipedia:WikiProject Spam/LinkSearch/List B.) creates a subpage with the linksearch results. C.) it updates Wikipedia:WikiProject Spam/Report
Step 2: daily task it reads /List and updates all reports. if it finds that there are zero links it adds that to /Holding 1 it before adding to /Holding 1 BCbot does the same for /Holding 2 and moves it to old. /Old contains all websites that havent been spammed within the last 72 hours.
BCBot is used to track spammed domains and assist in identifying them and removing their spam. Betacommand (talk • contribs • Bot) 03:29, 14 March 2007 (UTC)
I'm awarding myself some points, since my "b)" seems to correspond fairly closely to your "Step 2". That part seems fair enough. But I'm still struggling with the "do a linksearch" bit. How's this to be generated? From the contribs of a given spammer, extracting all additions of a particular domain? Or what? Alai 03:37, 14 March 2007 (UTC)
it uses Special:Linksearch to generate that data. as it is the least taxing method for our servers Betacommand (talk • contribs • Bot) 19:48, 14 March 2007 (UTC)
OK, that was a key piece of data I hadn't secured on my own recognizance; thank you. Aside from the meta-issue of the description being still being less than crystal clear, and getting additional information being rather like pulling teeth, I'm not seeing any problems here. Alai 03:13, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
I've noticed these pages already; presumably this application covers that activity which is already happening? If not, then I must have missed the point too.
Once a URL is down to 0 external links is it necessary to still have a page for them (and thus another external link), e.g. Wikipedia:WikiProject_Spam/LinkSearch/panthercarclub.com?
What's the data going to be used for and who decides what is spam? I notice that for example google is listed, and yet google actually has an interwiki link google:test. --kingboyk 19:17, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
true google is listed that is because there was a request for a report of that data. spam is identified in several methods, Mass additions, identification of domains/sites that are identifed as possible spam that link to said page should be monitored, and other methods that humans Identify spam. the bot does not Identify spam. all the bot does is track the usage of the domain over time. In regard to deleting the subpage that issue has not arisen to need deletion, having the site in the title is not a link. Betacommand (talk • contribs • Bot) 02:07, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
All seems solid, flag away (looks for b'crat) -- Tawker 03:40, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
He's already got a flag; presumably you meant this? :) --kingboyk 11:56, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
For now, I have withdrawn the approval of this bot. When everything is in order again, if you still want to do a similar task please make a new bot request. —METS501 (talk) 00:26, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the ERG4/ERG24 family. It localizes to the inner membrane of the nuclear envelope and anchors the lamina and the heterochromatin to the membrane. It may mediate the interaction between chromatin and lamin B. Mutations of this gene has been associated with autosomal recessive HEM/Greenberg skeletal dysplasia. Alternative splicing occurs at this locus and two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been identified. |

LEM domain-containing protein 3 | Infobox gene | LEM domain-containing protein 3 (LEMD3), also known as MAN1, is an integral protein in the inner nuclear membrane (INM) of the nuclear envelope. It is encoded by the LEMD3 gene and was first identified after it was isolated from the serum of a patient with a collagen vascular disease. |
LEM domain-containing protein 3 | Structure | Structure
The protein is 82.3 kDa and has a 40 amino acid long LEM domain located at its amino-terminal region. In its carboxyl end it has a RNA recognition motif (RRM). The LEM domain is also common to two other integral proteins of the INM: lamina-associated polypeptide 2 (LAP2) and emerin.
The LEM segment enables LEMD3 to attach to the barrier-to-autointegration factor (BAF), and therefore, indirectly interact with the chromatin. LEMD3 also has several implications in regulating the cytokine family such as the transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β) and bone morphogenic protein (BMPs). The RRM domain in its carboxylic region attaches to the SMAD (protein) proteins, which is involved in mediating TGF-β cellular signalling. Consequently, LEMD3 indirectly regulates downstream genes.
LEMD3 seems to play an important role in regulating the expression of several fundamental genes. |
LEM domain-containing protein 3 | LEMD3 and disease | LEMD3 and disease
LEMD3 has been associated with laminopathies as well as osteopoikilosis. Mutations in the LEMD3 gene have been linked to several genetic diseases such as osteopoikilosis, melorheostosis and Buschke–Ollendorff syndrome. |

The Death of Poe | Use American English | The Death of Poe is a 2006 independent film that tells the tragic story of the mysterious disappearance and death of the American author Edgar Allan Poe. The film is shot mostly in black-and-white with occasional color sequences. |
The Death of Poe | Plot | Plot
After a textual montage summarizing Edgar Allan Poe's life, the film begins in late September 1849 with Poe awakening from a hallucination where he is buried alive. He prepares to take a trip to New York City via a ferry steamboat from Richmond, Virginia, to Baltimore, and from there, another ferry to New York City itself. He discusses his plans to marry his childhood sweetheart Sarah Elmira Royster with a stranger taking the same steamboat, who suggests that he meet with a few potential investors for his planned magazine The Stylus. Though Poe had intended only to pass through Baltimore, he agrees to meet the investors who, one by one, turn down his request for funding.
Poe is depicted as having some type of memory loss, which is first evident when he offers to pay his boat fare twice after forgetting he had already paid. In Baltimore, he more than once forgets the arrangements he has made at his hotel as his stay in the city is extended. One night, he chooses to dine in a local tavern rather than at the hotel. There, he meets an old friend from his days at West Point. In desperation, he asks his former classmate and the classmate's companion for money to help start a magazine, saying proudly he has already raised $1,000. Poe leaves the tavern to retrieve his prospectus for the magazine. His classmate follows him and beats him up to steal the $1,000 he had collected.
An injured and delirious Poe is then found by organizers of a cooping ring. The author, along with several others, are forced to multiple polling locations around Baltimore to place multiple votes for the candidate for mayor. A couple of victims of the scam die amidst the brutality of their captors.
Afterwards, Poe is released and he eventually collapses in the street and is found by a local tavern owner. The man calls for Poe's uncle Henry Herring and Dr. Joseph Snodgrass. The men discuss what to do with the incoherent, half-conscious Poe. Snodgrass assumes he is drunk and suggests they let him sleep it off - a theory the film seems to dispute by showing him early in the film declining offered alcohol several times. Herring becomes more concerned and demands Poe be taken to Washington College Hospital, despite the expense.
At the hospital, Dr. John Moran tends to Poe, unable to accurately determine his situation or the cause of his failing health, or how he received his injuries. He muses to his wife, Mrs. Moran, that he does not want to be known as the physician who killed Edgar Allan Poe. Over the next three days, the bedridden Poe is kept in seclusion in a private room as Moran denies Poe visitors, including his Baltimore cousin Nielson Poe, who becomes convinced that his cousin is about to die. Poe ultimately does die after one final hallucination or perhaps a flashback where he sees his dead wife Virginia Clemm. |

The Death of Poe | Reception | Reception
British film journalist M.J. Simpson described the film as "an impressive and imaginative piece of independent film-making, available at a ridiculously low price and thoroughly worth the time, effort and cash of anyone who has ever enjoyed reading (or watching films based on) the words of Edgar Allan Poe." DVDTOWN.com managing editor James Plath wrote that Redfield's portrayal "really does bring the character to life," however the production "doesn't have the level of acting or script sophistication to make it play in Peoria . . . or anywhere else where Poe isn't revered." This sentiment was echoed by DVD Pub Review, who stated that "Mark Redfield has a lot of talent, but it seems that he tries too hard to do too much." Both Plath and DVD Pub Review lauded the extensive bonus material of the DVD release. |

Idalium or Idalion was an ancient city on place of modern Dali. The city was founded on the copper trade in the 3rd millennium BC. Recent excavations have uncovered major buildings on the site which are open to visitors, funded by Nicosia billionaire Krisos Rodrigues. A new museum is also near to the site. The ancient city was located in the fertile Gialias valley and flourished there as an economic centre due to its location close to the mines in the eastern foothills of the Troodos Mountains and its proximity to the cities and ports on the south and east coast. Idalion prospered and became so wealthy that it was among the 11 cities of Cyprus listed on the Sargon Stele (707 BC) and first among the ten Cypriot kingdoms listed on the prism (many-sided tablet) of the Assyrian king Esarhaddon (680–669 BC). it was controlled by the Phoenicians of Kition in Persian period of Cyprus, and became a Phoenician influenced city for the following periods. |
