Blind Dating | for | Blind Dating (also known as Blind Guy Driving) is a 2006 American romantic comedy film directed by James Keach and starring Chris Pine, Eddie Kaye Thomas, Anjali Jay, Jane Seymour, and Jayma Mays. The film was produced by David Shanks and James Keach and distributed by Samuel Goldwyn Films LLC. It was given a limited theatrical release on May 11, 2007.
The film received mixed to negative reviews. The film was not given a release in the UK until 2009, when Pine's film Star Trek was released. |
Blind Dating | Plot | Plot
Danny Valddesechi is an intelligent, handsome, charming boy who happens to be blind. Having been blind from birth, he volunteers for a risky experimental visual prosthesis that may restore his sight—having a microchip installed in the visual cortex of his brain that connects to a camera that would give him only, at best, fuzzy black and white images. During the tests he meets a beautiful Indian nurse, Leeza. Meanwhile, because Danny is a virgin at 22, his brother Larry, who runs a limousine service, gets him a string of hilariously disastrous blind dates in between rentals.
When Danny finally realizes that he is falling for Leeza, she tells him she cannot see him anymore because she has been promised in an arranged marriage. Believing that Leeza did not pursue their relationship because of his being blind, Danny becomes depressed and stops taking the necessary tests for his brain surgery. Danny's family, his eccentric psychotherapist Dr. Evans and eye doctor Dr. Perkins advise him to continue because it is his only chance of seeing, and soon Danny is successfully operated on. He sees his family's faces for the first time, but not Leeza's, who was away, reluctantly preparing for her engagement party. Soon the experiment proves to be a failure, as the fragile prosthesis in his brain moves, clouding his already weak vision, and Danny goes back to being blind.
Realizing that he really loves Leeza, he bursts into the engagement party, professing his love for her and saying "Love is how you speak to me. Love is how you touch me...and guide me showing me the way to go. And when we kiss, when we kiss, it moves me to my soul." The couple kiss. At this the marriage is called off and Danny and Leeza start over, learning more about each other's family and culture. |

Blind Dating | Critical reception | Critical reception
On review aggregate website Rotten Tomatoes, Blind Dating has an approval rating of 25% based on 24 reviews, with an average rating of 4.2/10. The website's critics consensus reads, "Nicely cast but clumsily directed, Blind Dating smothers its leads' chemistry in a wildly uneven and mostly unmemorable romantic comedy with far too little of either."
Peter Bradshaw of The Guardian wrote, "The standard of acting and directing is at a very low ebb, and as Danny's therapist, Jane Seymour bafflingly and embarrassingly reprises the horny-older-woman routine she showed us in the Owen Wilson/Vince Vaughn comedy Wedding Crashers." Ben Rawson-Jones of the Digital Spy said that while "the structure and premise of the story aren't too bad at all…this serious scenario is littered with a plethora of lazily-conceived supposedly 'comic' caricatures that drag us kicking and screaming into a world of surreal tedium instead". William Thomas of Empire called the film "a muddled mix of fratboy comedy, disability drama and cross-cultural romance". |

Nothing to suggest this school is notable beyond being a school. Note also the article explicitly states it is below the expectations of other schools. Contested prod. Dennitalk 05:58, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
Delete NN school. Article basically just says that the school exists. TJ Spyke 06:03, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
Delete as the article fails to meet notability criterion, as well as failing to attribute the sources used to create the article. Kyra~(talk) 08:51, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

Delete. NOT an advertisement, the article basically says "What a shit school don't go there". Delete it and let someone interested in the place write a NPOV article. Only contribution by User:Twigz o war who has no talk page and should have been warned for vandalism. Only other contributions have been similar vandalism by anon IP's, and deletion-related tagging.Garrie 03:26, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
Delete If there isn't an editor out there who will maintain it, then it will just attract vandals. I'm all for keeping high school articles, but I'm beginning to think one of the practical criteria needs to be that the article won't just be a spot where vandals hang out, blighting the neighborhood. So an editor needs to be there to police it. I see no evidence of that in this case, so bulldoze it. Maybe one day it will be rebuilt by someone who will give it the care it deserves. Noroton 05:46, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
article has had rubbish removed and been referenced at this point
Keep Delete - I've removed the weasel bits, and found at least one notability reference ( in the article now ). Will try to get more but on the face of it, seems a notable high school. 592 google hits and over 60 referring to awards ( many will be student awards but at least one is an award for the school ) - Peripitus (Talk)...After some searching I can find nothing else of note except the two added references. No news articles in the last few years, no books on the school and no mentioned notable students - Peripitus (Talk) 10:18, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
Delete - I don't see anything particularly notable about this school. Lankiveil 08:15, 9 March 2007 (UTC).
Keep Has potential to be expanded, or at the very least, merged. It actually has sources! Notability is a failed criterion that never had consensus. The article shows no indication of advertisement. SmokeyJoe 01:53, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
Keep - the article was created less than a week ago and needs to be given a reasonable time to find editors and develop. Already being expanded and looks notable enough for an article. I have added an agricultural initiative. TerriersFan 04:00, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
Keep This is a stub with potential for development - clearly some people here don't understand the stub concept. School articles are important and high schools are notable. Constant vandalism is not a reason for deletion, otherwise there would be no Bush article. Ardfern 23:03, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
Delete Unlike the other school article currently up for AfD, this one fails WP:N. This article seems more appropriate for the new MySchool wiki. (Please excuse the lack of content there, it just got off the ground.) --Butseriouslyfolks 23:24, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

Dun & Bradstreet, a credit rating agency, sent a report to five subscribers indicating that Greenmoss Builders, a construction contractor, had filed a voluntary petition for bankruptcy. The report was false and grossly misrepresented the contractor's financial health. Thereafter, Dun & Bradstreet issued a corrective notice, but the contractor had already been harmed. |
Dun & Bradstreet, Inc. v. Greenmoss Builders, Inc. | Procedural history | Procedural history
The contractor brought a defamation action in Vermont state court, alleging that the false report had injured its reputation and seeking damages. After trial, the judge submitted the case to the jury without specific instructions as to the level of fault (negligence, actual malice, or strict liability) the jury was required to find before awarding damages against Dun & Bradstreet for defamation. The jury returned a verdict against Dun & Bradstreet in the contractor's favor and awarded both compensatory and punitive damages. Dun & Bradstreet, however, moved for a new trial, and the trial court granted the motion. The Vermont Supreme Court reversed the grant of the motion, holding that the First Amendment allowed an award of damages against a nonmedia defendant such as Dun & Bradstreet, even without a showing of special fault. |
Dun & Bradstreet, Inc. v. Greenmoss Builders, Inc. | Result | Result
The United States Supreme Court affirmed the Vermont Supreme Court's judgment. The court balanced the state's interest in protecting and compensating private individuals for injury to their reputation against the First Amendment right to free speech. The court found that First Amendment interests were less controlling in matters of a purely private concern than matters which are a public interest. The Supreme Court did not overturn Vermont state law allowing awards of presumed and punitive damages absent a showing of "actual malice". |

Peter Moon (comedian) | Short description | Peter Moon (born 18 January 1953) is an Australian comedian, best known for writing and performing in the sketch comedy Fast Forward. |
Peter Moon (comedian) | Biography | Biography
Moon was born in Yarram, Victoria.
On Fast Forward, his characters were often oafish sidekicks to more dominant characters played by Steve Vizard, including Barry the advertising executive and Abdul the Persian carpet salesman. Moon appeared in one of the show's best-known parodies, of the Kung Fu television series (also opposite Vizard), and as the "very unattractive" Soviet newsreader Victor with Jane Turner as Svetta.
After Fast Forward, Moon worked as a writer and occasional guest performer on its successor, Full Frontal, and various other comedy series, usually alongside other Fast Forward alumni. In 1995 Moon joined the 2Day FM Morning Crew breakfast radio show, co-hosting alongside Wendy Harmer. For 8 years this was consistently the highest rating FM Breakfast show in Sydney, until animosity between the two hosts, together with Moon increasingly delivering his content for the show from a studio in Melbourne, led to him being axed in 2002. The new duo of Greg Fleet and Harmer rated poorly and Morning Crew was taken off air at the end of the following year.
Moon also played Samuel Marsden in the historical sit-com Bligh, and appeared in Bill Bennett's Film The Nugget. Since then Moon has been developing film and television projects and making occasional appearances in shows such as 20 to 1 and Let Loose Live. He wrote, produced and appeared in The Comedy Channel's sitcom Whatever Happened To That Guy?, which is loosely based on his post-fame life.
In 2010, Moon joined the cast of Neighbours on a recurring basis as theatre producer Terry Kearney.
He is also the treasurer of the Australian Writers Guild. |

Diyala campaign | More citations needed | The Diyala campaign was a series of operations conducted by coalition forces against Iraqi insurgents and a number of bombing and guerrilla attacks against the security forces in the Diyala Governorate of Iraq, with the purpose of control of the province and reducing insurgent activity. |
Diyala campaign | Background | Background
In mid-October 2006, al-Qaeda announced the creation of the Islamic State of Iraq (ISI),Urban, Mark, Task Force Black: The Explosive True Story of the Secret Special Forces War in Iraq , St. Martin's Griffin , 2012 ,p.183 replacing the Mujahideen Shura Council (MSC) and its al-Qaeda in Iraq (AQI).
In 2006, Diyala province had special significance for the insurgents. When Abu Musab al-Zarqawi was head of al-Qaeda in Iraq, he designated Diyala as the capital of the Islamic caliphate he planned to establish in the country. He located his headquarters in a village north-west of Baqubah. On 28 April 2006, on Saddam Hussein's birthday, insurgents of the Mujahideen Shura Council including al-Qaeda in Iraq launched a coordinated offensive throughout the province, attacking Muqdadiyah, Balad Ruz, Kanaan, Khalis, Khan Bani Sa'ad and the capital Baqubah. The insurgents used the rural areas east and southeast of the capital, from Balad Ruz to Turki as supply bases for their bombing campaigns in Baghdad and Diyala. They were also based in the Diyala river valley, northeast of Baqubah, where they fought for control of Muqdadiyah, an important line of communication to Lake Hamrin, Kirkuk and Iran. The insurgents also had control of the tribal areas of Khan Bani Sa'ad south of Baqubah to Salman Pak, south-east of Baghdad. |
Diyala campaign | Prelude | Prelude
Shortly after the insurgent victory in Baghdad after Operation Together Forward insurgents began, little by little, moving their resources from Baghdad, now more than 80 percent under insurgent control, and Al Anbar province, which was also almost completely under insurgent control, to the province of Diyala northeast of Baghdad. The first signs of increased insurgent activity in Diyala came after U.S. forces found an insurgent bunker complex near the village of Turki and fought a bloody battle. Also a few weeks later fighting between police and insurgents after an attack on Baquba's police headquarters shut down the city, closing the university, schools and most stores, and clearing the streets of everyone, except a few who attempted to stock up on food. At least 55 militants were killed in clashes in the preceding days, according to anonymous police sources. During the fighting a mass grave with 28 bodies was discovered. After that U.S. and Iraqi forces begin raids in the city. The morgue in the city reports by the beginning of December 2006 that it had received 102 bodies in the previous two weeks. After the announcement of a new attempt by the U.S. and Iraqi security forces to take back the streets of Baghdad the insurgents started to speed up their move and it is believed that the reason behind the little resistance found by the security forces in Baghdad during Operation Law and Order is that most of the insurgents had moved to Diyala. |

Diyala campaign | Baquba falls | Baquba falls
On Christmas Day, it was reported that the capital of the province, Baquba, had fallen under insurgent control. An Iraqi news cameraman went to the city and reported seeing hundreds of gunmen with AK-47s in cars and pickups parading through the city. There was no sign of the security forces except for the bodies of a few executed by the insurgents.Wikinews:Insurgents now control Iraqi city After that, there were increased insurgent attacks on the U.S. and Iraqi forces around Baquba and in the rest of the province.
In mid-January, U.S. and Iraqi forces conducted a series of raids that resulted in 93 insurgents killed and 57 captured. Despite that, however, the insurgents had some successes early in the campaign, mainly when they shot down a Black Hawk helicopter on January 20, killing twelve U.S. soldiers. The helicopter was carrying mostly officers from the U.S. National Guard. The dead included a colonel who was the top American military doctor in Iraq.
In January 2007, it was reported that Sunni militants were able to kidnap the mayor of Baquba and blow up his office, despite promises from American and Iraqi military officials that the situation in the city was "reassuring and under control". The city at its peak had over 300,000 residents, but a February 2007 report labeled the city a "ghost town" as most residents had fled. |
Diyala campaign | Iraqi security forces under attack | Iraqi security forces under attack
In two separate incidents in the beginning of March, insurgents captured 32 members of the Iraqi security forces. The bodies of 14 captured policemen were found shortly after, and the 18 other soldiers and policemen were shown on television with a message that they would be executed. Suicide bombers continued to attack in Diyala, targeting not only military but also civilian targets such as a cafe in Balad Ruz, where 30 people were killed on March 7. The capture of policemen continued, with another 10 policemen captured and 1 killed when insurgents overran a police station in the town of Hibhib. The bodies of five of the policemen were found the next month. Also, 20 Iraqi soldiers and policemen were captured at the beginning of April and were executed several days later.
On March 23, the provincial director of civil defense, Colonel Ahmed Kadhim Jawad, was killed in Khalis. |
Diyala campaign | Reinforcements arrive | Reinforcements arrive
On March 13, 700 men from the Army's 5th Battalion, 20th Infantry Regiment, which includes Stryker armored vehicles, were sent from Baghdad to Diyala as reinforcements to the 3,500 U.S. and 20,000 Iraqi soldiers already in the province. The next day, as the first batch of the reinforcements was moving close to the outskirts of Baquba, the Stryker convoy was hit by machine-gun, RPG and mortar fire. In the ensuing chaos one American soldier was killed, 12 were wounded and two Stryker armored vehicles were destroyed. The same day, in two other separate incidents, two more American soldiers were killed in the province. |
Diyala campaign | Attack on Qubah | Attack on Qubah
On March 24, the U.S. military started operations to retake the Baqubah River valley. The operation started with an attack on the insurgent-held village of Qubah. Up to 13 Chinooks, Blackhawks and Apache gunships from FOB Warhorse flew in 241 soldiers on the edge of Qubah and heavy street fighting ensued as artillery fire provided cover firing into the surrounding palm groves. At the same time, a convoy of 19 Humvees, two Bradley fighting vehicles and several other vehicles approached from the opposite end. The soldiers encountered several machine gun nests in the town. Some of the fighting was almost hand to hand. The Apaches strafed insurgent positions with cannons and sent Hellfire missiles into buildings soldiers were attacking from the ground. By sunset 16 insurgents were killed and 3 American soldiers were wounded in the initial clashes. As the convoy tried to return to base, they were hit two times by roadside bombs. The Apaches identified the triggermen and killed up to 12 more insurgents. In one of the blasts, 4 American soldiers were killed and 2 were wounded. By the close of the operation on March 24 only the town of Zaganiya was left as the last insurgent stronghold in the Baqubah river valley. |
Diyala campaign | Khalis massacre | Khalis massacre
On March 29, three suicide bombers in a coordinated attack on the mostly Shia town of Khalis killed 53 people and wounded 103. This coincided with a double suicide bombing in Baghdad on the Shaab area marketplace that killed 82 people, including many women and children, and wounded 138 others. |
Diyala campaign | Diyala cut off, sectarian war intensifies | Diyala cut off, sectarian war intensifies
By early April it was reported that insurgents had taken control of the roads between Diyala and Baghdad. Large swaths of territory were in insurgent hands and the U.S. military was stretched thin. Meanwhile, sectarian warfare intensified in the province with a total of 62 bodies being recovered between April 3 and 7. Most of the sectarian killings is done in revenge because after the mass killings of Sunnis by Shiites in Baghdad a large number of Sunnis fled to seek refuge in Baquba. That contributed to the ranks of the Sunni insurgents and also brought a greater sense of hatred toward the Shi'a population of Diyala. Also, even before Baghdad Security Plan, the Shi'a dominated military and police units in Diyala were conducting mass killings of Sunnis. Now, as Diyala has become a new safe haven for Sunni insurgents, like Al Anbar province which has already been overrun by the insurgents, that has changed were the Sunnis are striking back at the Shiites.
Because of the crackdown in Baghdad, many Shiite Mahdi Army units fled from the capital to Diyala where they took up positions in the western parts of the province and carried out attacks against American and Iraqi military targets. |
