FULL TIME: Liverpool 2-0 Burnley. Thanks for joining us.
FULL TIME: Liverpool 2-0 Burnley. Thanks for joining us.
Burnley sub: Jutkiewicz comes on for Ings. Little time to chance things though…
Liverpool sub: Lambert on for Sterling.
Droba is now booked for timewasting, stopping West Ham take a free kick. A hard fought and deserved win for Chelsea, but they really had to work for that. They'll be enjoying a nice lie in tomorrow, I hope. For West Ham, a big improvement over their receent efforts.
F-T! Manchester City 2-0 Leicester City. It wasn't easy but the champions have their win. David Silva's goal just before half-time was the key but Leicester will feel aggrieved about two penalty decisions, one which was debatable and one which should have been but only a freekick was given for a foul by Fernando on Kramaric.
What a save from Lloris! The Frenchman springs across goal to deny Williams an unlikely late equaliser. And that's it, Spurs have held on for a win that takes them to within six points of the top four with a game in hand.
Great pace from Can to get back goal side of Mee who brings him down and goes into the book.
Remy on for Hazard.
Liverpool sub: Johnson on for Sturridge.
Hazard is through on goal, takes a touch, slides it right for Willian. The keeper is stranded, and his low shot is bocked on the line by Cresswell.
FT: Newcastle 0 Manchester United 1. Another average United performance, but a vital win nonetheless. With all their top four rivals winning, it was imperative that they picked up three points, but after wasting several chances, a fortunate Ashley Young goal snatches victory. Huge result.
Drogba is on for Costa.
Spurs have three minutes to hold on.
Final Arsenal sub: Ozil comes off and Danny Welbeck replaces him. Ozil is in no hurry to leave the pitch.
GOAL!! SIGURDSSON PULLS ONE BACK!!! Montero gets to the byline before lifting a ball to the back post where Sigurdsson side-foots home.
What a save from De Gea! Once again the Spaniard comes to United's rescue, this time denying Cisse at the last. Four added minutes.
Incrediible drama. Tireless work from captain Rooney. He ever gave up, forced the error, but Krul has to do better, passed it straight to Young. Not an easy finish, but he remained composed.
GOAL! Manchester City 2-0 Leicester City. That's the game for the home side as James Milner supplies the finish that neither Sergio Aguero or Wilfried Bony could, sidefooting Jesus Navas' cross from the right wing into the net in style.
GOAL! Newcastle 0 Manchester United 1. The scrappiest of goals gifts United a massive three points! Krul made a mess of a clearance, and Young was on hand to side foot home to probably snatch a vital win
Nene is on for Kouyate.
Rojo is brought off, with Michael Carrick making his return to the side. No Radamel Falcao?
Arsenal sub: Aaron Ramsey on for Rosicky. The Welshman returns from injury.
Liverpool sub: Toure on for Moreno.
Soldado flashes a header from a Walker cross just past the post. Fabianski was beaten.
Aguero looks very downbeat as he's replaced by Edin Dzeko.
Valencia is cautioned for a late challenge on sub Gouffran. Right call from the referee.
GOAL! AUSTIN PULLS ONE BACK - QPR 1-2 ARSENAL: It's that man Austin with a late goal for QPR. He pivots and hits a low strike into the bottom corner past Ospina. Nervy remaining 10 minutes for Arsenal now.
Ben Davies comes on to face his former club as Rose is taken off.
Fellaini is replaced by Mata. Again, he does not look happy. Yoan Gouffran is on for the hosts in place of Sammy Ameobi.
Cynical foul from Yun, who takes out Rosicky as Arsenal are trying to counter.
Williams' blushes spared by the offside flag as he loses the ball to Chadli on the edge of the area but the winger passes to Kane who is returning from an offside position. The striker is then withdrawn for Roberto Soldado.
Burnley sub: Barnes off for Vokes.
The home side make their second change, with Silva replaced by Lampard.
Monk makes a change as Jefferson Montero comes on for Shelvey. He has just over 17 minutes to make a difference.
Mahrez is replaced by Ulloa as Leicester decide it's time to attack.
Oscar swapped for Willian.
Rooney gets up so well above Gutierrez, but his downward header is well saved by Krul. Got down very quickly to keep it out.
Final QPR sub: Mauricio Isla comes on for Junior Hoilett.
First substitution for Manchester City with Wilfried Bony being taken off for James Milner. No first goal for the Ivorian.
Another booking!
GOAL! SANCHEZ MAKES IT 2-0 ARSENAL! Gibbs lays it off to the Chilean, who dinks inside the box and shoots past two defenders into the bottom corner past a helpless Rob Green.
Scoring ends up being Townsend's final involvement as he's replaced by Moussa Dembele.
CHANCE! How is this still 0-0? Herrera dithers and is dispossessed. Perez plays in Cisse, but the Senegalese hitman drags his shot wide. Should have done better.
Dier booked as he tugs Oliveira back to give away a free kick on the edge of Spurs' area. Sigurdsson steps up and hits the top of the wall.
Same laws for everyone! Gutierrez is booke already!
Burnley sub: Kightly off for Wallace
GOAL! GIROUD GIVES ARSENAL A 1-0 LEAD: Arsenal break and Sanchez slips in Gibbs with a reverse pass. The left back looks up and finds Giroud who finishes from close range.
GOAL Liverpool! It's a terrific ball in from Henderson and Sturridge heads home past Heaton.
GOAL!! TOWNSEND SCORES EXCELLENT THIRD!! Lloris is called into action to deny Fernandez from a Swansea corner, but Spurs break and as Oliver waves play on following a Routledge foul, Townsend drives into the box, before checking onto his right foot and finding the far corner.
What a moment! Jonas Gutierrez is coming on. This is his first appearance since recovering from testicular cancer. He replaces Taylor. What an ovation. Roof is coming off! Very emotional scenes.
Downing advances on goal, passes through for Sakho to his left, and his low shot is blocked by Courtois.
We have our first booking of the game, with Rojo earning his seventh booking of the campaign.
Hazard chips in a cross for Ramires at the back post, unmarked, and he heads his effort straight against Adrian.
Di Maria is replaced again! Januzaj comes on in his place. The Argentine does not look happy, and is muttering something under his breath. Ayoze Perez on for Riviere for the hosts.
We're back underway here at Anfield. Liverpool lead through another Jordan Henderson cracker on his 200th PL start. No changes for either side.
Adrian claims Oscar's cross. West Ham break, and Cahill clears in the box to stop the ballreaching Sakho. Raires then steams up the pitch with Hazard and Costa. He cuts onto his left and sends his shot against the post.
Two substitutions for Leicester CIty, with Paul Konchesky and Andrej Kramaric coming off for James Vardy and David Nugest.
Rooney has the ball in the net, but the linesman's flag rules it out. Was very, very marginal. Could have gone either way.
Sakho and Valencia go close again, with Courtois pulling off a fine save, getting a stop to prevent Nolan tapping in.
GOAL!! MASON GIVES SPURS THE LEAD!!! Eriksen drives across the Swansea box and when he loses control of the ball Mason takes over and smashes past Fabianski.
DOUBLE SAVE! How has Krul kept the scores level!?! Fellaini is onside, brings the ball down, lashes the ball at goal, but Krul somehow gets a hand to it to keep hit out, and then has the energy to get up quickly to thwart Young on the rebound. Stunning from a 'keeper Van Gaal knows all too well.
Kouyate shoots into the path of Sakho, who spins in the box and slams a shot just wide of the top corner.
We're back under way at White Hart Lane. Shelvey leads a Swansea counter, and ends up forcing Lloris into a good stop from 20 yards.
SAVE! Save of the match from David de Gea. Riviere looks destined to score at the back post, but his toe-poke from close range is clawed away by De Gea.
EFFORT! Great strike from Rojo from distance. Cuts across the ball to give it swirve, but he gets just a tad too much lift on it, and it goes over.
We go again.
Back to Loftus Road for the 2nd half. Giroud kicks off to Ozil.
United kick us off in the second half. All the talk during the interval was whether Papiss Cisse spat at Jonny Evans. Replays did not look good. Hopefull some goals this half.
HALF TIME: Liverpool 1-0 Burnley
Chance Sturridge! He's put through on goal by Coutinho but Heaton reads it perfectly and saves his side footed finish with his legs.
Hazard is booked for tripping Nolan in midfield to stop an attack, and that's half time.
The first half ends with Spurs playing the ball around midfield. The hosts went in front thanks to Chadli's brilliant early opener but Swansea rallied after losing Gomis to a worrying injury and levelled through an impressive finish from Ki. Can either side find a winner in the second half? Find out right here in 15 minutes.
HT: Newcastle 0 Manchester United 0. The visitors have had their chances to take the lead, but profligacy in front of goal has again been their downfall. Riviere has looked lively, while the hosts were unlucky not to be awarded a penalty for a foul on the Frenchman. Cisse and Evans could be in trouble, with replays showing the spat between the pair was literally just that.
GOAL! Manchester City 1-0 Leicester CIty. David Silva ends a frustrating half in the best possible way for the home side, tapping into an empty net from two yards out. It was Kolarov who create the chance, getting clear on the left and cutting it across to Bony but after his shot was blocked by Huth, Silva was on-hand to tap-in at the second attempt.
QPR 0-Arsenal 0.
Straight down the other end, Riviere is played in by Cisse, he is through on goal, but he stumbles and cannot get the shot away. Big chance. One added minute to come.
What an effort Coutinho! He bends an effort just wide from distance. Also looking for back-to-back goals.
SAVE! Fellaini gets up well at the back post too meet a Valencia cross, but Krul is equal to it, and beats the ball away. Needed more power.
There will be six minutes added on at the end of the first half at White Hart Lane due to the stoppage in play as Gomis received treatment.
QPR Sub: Clint Hill comes on for Nedum Onuoha.
GOAL LIVERPOOL! It's another absolute belter from Henderson from the edge of the box after Coutinho's first effort is blocked. He's on fire!
Zouma's gone down clutching his ankle, and Collins is booked for a late lunge into the player.
Sturridge close! Keane takes a chance heading back to his keeper following a blocked shot and it almost falls straight into the path of Sturridge.
Sterling sets Henderson and his side footed shot is well saved by Heaton for another corner.
Arsenal sub: Gabriel's going to have to come off. Replaced by Koscielny.
Paul Konchesky was booked in the build-up to that chance for Bony, having clipped the heels of David Silva.
Jenkinson lifts in a great cross to the back post Sakho's run, and he heads down to the low corner, and Courtois stoops to palm away.
Would have been some goal from Cisse. He flicks it over his head, and lashes a volley at goal, but scuffs it well wide.
Now a booking for Arsenal. Bellerin receives a yellow for a foul on Hoilett
First yellow of the game and it's little surprise that it's Karl Henry. A shove in the back of Rosicky and Arsenal have a promising freekick.
GOAL! West Ham 0-1 Chelsea. Hazard scores. Fabregas finds Ramires running on the right of the box, and his simple cross is headed past Adrian by Hazard.
WHAT A MISS! Huge opportunity for Rooney. Great touch from Young kills the bal into the path of the England captain, but with the flag staying down, he drags the shot wide from the penalty spot. Time seemed to stand still with everyone expecting the flag. Right call, but Rooney should have buried that.
GOAL!! KI DRAWS SWANS LEVEL!!! Eric Dier fouls Sigurdsson on the edge of the box. The Icelandic midfielder steps up and smashes a brilliant free kick against the post. Spurs initialy clear, but as Neil Taylor clips the ball back into the box Ki Sung-yeung keeps his composure to side-foot past Hugo Lloris.
Liverpool force a second early corner and Henderson heads over the bar. It was a decent chance.
Corner for West Ham on the right. Noble swings his cross away from Courtois, and it's cleared. Noble wins it back, slides it inside for Nolan, Kouyate reacts first, and his shot is straight at Courtois and behind.
Good build-up play from Spurs as Eriksen flicks the ball to Andros Townsend who forces Lukasz Fabianski into a good low save.
Great save Heaton! Nice interplay between Sterling, Sturridge and Lallana. The latter touches onto Sturridge and the striker gets his shot away but Heaton touches around his post. Almost the ideal start.
Terry is booked now for [REDACTED}. No, not really, for dragging Valencia to the ground 25 yards out.
Zouma has landed equally after a rough challenge. Kouyate is booked for sticking his arm across his face.
NO PENALTY! Huge shouts from the St James' Park terraces as Riviere goes down under challenge from Chris Smalling. Referee Anthony Tayor is having none of it. Replays show that there was contact, but nothing given.
Swansea get the game back under way with Nelson Oliveira on in Gomis' place.
KICK-OFF! Referee Lee Mason blows the whistle to get us underway here at Anfield. Liverpool could go level with big rivals Man Utd by the end of the night. Incentive if ever they need it. Burnley all in black tonight instead of their other change strip of grey. Liverpool setting up 3-4-3, Burnley 4-4-2.
Oscar passes into the box for Costa to slide towards, but he lifts a shot well over the bar with a n outstreched shin. Collins has replaced Reid.
GOAL!!! CHADLI PUTS SPURS IN FRONT!! Danny Rose gets forward on the left hand side and puts in a great cross that Nacer Chadli calmly side-foots home while airborne.
Great chance already for United! Di Maria is played in by Rooney after a defensive mix up, but the Argentine fails to pull the trigger when he has the chance, and he is forced out. Lack of confidence maybe to blame?
Referee Michael Oliver blows his whistle and we are under way at Spurs.
The match gets underway. Are you not entertained?
We are underway here. The crowd seem up for it. Van Gaal has lost twice on this ground before, can he have more success this time around?
Kevin Friend gets us underway at Loftus Road and Austin and Zamora kick off
West Ham's XI is Adrian, Jenkinson, Tomkins, Reid, Cresswell, Noble, Kouyate, Downing, Valencia, Sakho. Subs: Jaaskelainen, Demel, O'Brien, Collins, Song, Jarvis, Nene.
Still waiting for the West Ham side, Chelsea are: Courtois, Ivanovic, Cahill, Terry, Azpilicueta, Zouma, Ramires, Fabregas, Oscar, Hazard, Diego Costa. Subs: Cech, Filipe Luis, Loftus-Cheek, Cuadrado, Willian, Remy, Drogba.
TEAMS: Liverpool: Mignolet, Can, Skrtel, Lovren, Henderson, Allen, Moreno, Lallana, Sterling, Coutinho, Sturridge. SUBS: Ward, Johnson, Toure, Lambert, Balotelli, Williams, Markovic /// Burnley: Heaton; Trippier, Keane, Shackell (c), Mee; Kightly, Jones, Arfield, Boyd; Barnes, Ings. SUBS: Gilks, Duff, Vokes, Wallace, Reid, Jutkiewicz, Ward.
That's full time. An impressive recovery from Sunderland's players after their manager tried to ruin things for them with his sending off. However, his introduction of Van Aanholt for the equaliser deserves some credit, as it changed the match.
GOAL!! BENTEKE WINS IT FOR VILLA!!! The Belgian striker calmly slots home from 12 yards to surely seal three precious points.
Delaney is booked for a kicking the heel of Mane as he looks to take a freekick.
Foster fails to hold a vicious Delph shot from 30 yards, he saves the rebound from Bacuna but as the ball comes back into the box he clatters into Lowton and gives away a late penalty.
Chris Baird comes on for West Brom as they look to run down the clock.
Three minutes of time to be added on. Grealish wins a free kick on the left wing. Bacuna stands over it, but his delivery is poor and the ball floats out.
Meyler's ball into the box after it was initially cleared loops towards the goal, but Pantilion claims. Sunderland attack up the other end. Van Aanholt finds Rodwell's late run, and he sends a volley over the bar.
Alvarez is booked for not backing away from the free kick on the left wing.
Hutton and Berahino both booked, and the Villa full-back's challenge was a bit naughty there. He will have to serve a two-game suspension too.
Gardner clatters into Hutton to stop a counter and the former Villa player is booked.
Crystal Palace make their first change, with Shola Ameobi on for James McArthur.
GOAL! Southampton 1-0 Crystal Palace. It didn't seem like it would ever come but Southampton have their goal! Ward-Prowse, on for less that five minutes, turns past Dann and shoots from just outside the area. Speroni pushes the shot straight out in front of him and Mane is there to dink it into the net. Poor goalkeeping.
Villa roll the dice for the final time as Andreas Weimann comes on for Agbonlahor.
N'Doye has a chance from point-blank range and Pantilimon somehow stops the header.
Clark picks up a booking as he checks Ideye on halfway.
GOAL! Hull City 1-1 Sunderland. Rodwell scores - Van Aanholt receives the ball on the left, gets to the byline and stands up a cross. Rodwell is a yard from the line and glances the ball into the net, maybe hitting his arm.
Elmohamady skips into the box, beating a man and stays upright. He cuts the ball back for Livermore, who tries to cut the ball to the far corner, but Pantilimon saves. At the other end, Defoe's shot from distance is straight at McGregor.
Final change for Southampton, with James Ward-Prowse on for Djuricic.
Great ball from Yacob looking for Gardner in the Villa area but the midfielder checks his run and the ball goes out. Meanwhile, Sherwood brings on Leandro Bacuna for Cleverley.
Changes now,. Vergini swapped for Van Aanholt, and Graham is off for Wickham, and Hernandez comes on for Jelavic.
Robertson has an attempt from the edge of the box, right-footed, and it's just wide of the corner.
Big chance for Villa as Hutton picks out Grealish but the youngster cushions a side-foot straight at Foster.
Second change for Southampton, with Pelle being replaced by Long.
GOAL!! BERAHINO SNATCHES AN EQUALISER!! Clark is forced to concede a corner as Morrison fires in a cross from the right. Brunt comes across to take the set piece, and Berahino is on hand to head home after Lescott does brilliantly to nod back across goal.
Rodwell has a shot from distance that flicks off the top of a defender, and McGregor reacts quickly.
Alvarez replaces Cattermole.
Cattermole is booked for a cynical challenge on Meyler to stop him breaking from halfway. Bruce then loops a header over for Hull.
O'Shea reaches a cross from the right and his glancing header is deflected just wide of the post. Hull break from the second corner.
N'Zogbia gets a cross in from the right that West Brom only half clear. Hutton fires the loose ball well over, though. That is N'Zogbia's final act as Jack Grealish comes on.
First change of the game as Elia is replaced by Dusan Tadic.
Two appeals for a penalty. Robertson's cross strikes the arm of a defender from two yards, and then Jelavic goes down in the box, and Mike Dean isn't interested in that either. Bruce kicks over nothing.
Okore fouls Ideye on the left-hand touchline. Brunt whips in the delivery and Dawson heads inches over the bar.
Agbonlahor drives forward and wins a free kick with Lescott booked for the challenge.
N'Doye has room at the back post but instead of opting for the selfish shot, he crosses for O'Shea to clear.
Bridcutt goes fkyng into Jelavic, studs up, and he should be off. Somehow it's ony a booking,.
We're back under way at Villa Park. Can the hosts hold on to three vital points?
Crystal Palace get us back underway at St Mary's.
That's half time, see you in 15 minutes.
H-T! Southampton 0-0 Crystal Palace. A disappointing first-half comes to an end after the scrappiest period of the game so far. Southampton have had the vast majority of the ball and nine shots in total, but with only one on target it's been relatively comfortable for Crystal Palace. The visitors will want to get their forward players involved more, particularly Dwight Gayle, but would be far the happier side if the result stays this way.
The half-time whistle blows, and Villa deservedly lead through Agbonlahor's excellent goal. It could have been more, but Pulis will have noted the hosts' nerves at the back. The Baggies are still very much in this. Find out if they can find a way back into the game in 15 minutes.
Villa hit the post! Delph hasn't scored in the league this season and he won't come much closer as he checks onto his right foot and curls an effort past Foster that comes back off the woodwork.
McShane lunges in on Defoe, winning the ball but also obviously roughing up the player first. He's booked.
N'Zogbia draws Yacob into making a foul, and the Argentine goes into the book.
Poyet was so frustrated by the referee's decision that he booted a water bucket and has been sent off. He then wandered over to Steve Bruce and had a word, and Bruce has to be held back from chasing Poyet down the tunnel. Poyet's toast.
Rodwell toes a ball past Bruce on the edge of the box, and collapses under a non-existent challenge. Rodwell is booked for diving, and Poyet is miffed.
After a bit of head-tennis Southampton clear and Djuricic breaks towards the halfway line but is dragged down by McArthur, resulting in the first yellow of the game.
Agbonlahor gets behind the Baggies defence once again and despite a heavy touch is able to fire under Foster. Joleon Lecott gets back though to clear off the line and save West Brom.
Defoe receives the ball just inside the box, on the left. He takes a touch or two inside, and snatches at a shot that drags wide of goal.
GOAL!! AGBONLAHOR PUTS VILLA IN FRONT!! The former England man gets his goal as he latches onto Benteke's flick on and finishes calmly under Foster.
GOAL! Hull City 1-0 Sunderland. N'Doye scores - Huddlestone drills in a low ball to the left of the useless wall, and N'Doye clips it past the keeper into the bottom far corner.
Agbonlahor does well to turn on Benteke's knock down and gets a shot away that Ben Foster fumbles. The ball didn't cross the whole of the line though and Moss waves play on.
Brown clatters Elmohamady after he overruns the ball on the edge of ths box. He's booked. Elmohamday looks in a fair amount of pain, and the physio is there with his walkie talkie.
The match gets underway, and both sides will be nervous. If Sunderland win, they will leapfrog Hull into 15th place.
Referee Jonathan Moss blows his whistle and we are under way at Villa Park. The famous old ground is far from full at kick-off.
TEAMS: Hull City: McGregor, Dawson, Bruce, McShane, Elmohamady, Robertson, Huddlestone, Livermore, Meyler, Jelavic, N'Doye. Subs: Harper, Figueroa, Davies, Quinn, Ramirez, Hernandez, Aluko. /// Sunderland: Pantilimon, Reveilere, Vergini, Brown, O'Shea, Cattermole, Bridcutt, Rodwell, Larsson, Defoe, Graham. Subs: Fletcher, Wickham, Gomez, Alvarez, van Aanholt, Coates, Mannone.

LONDON — The younger brother of Chelsea winger Eden Hazard has left the Premier League club and joined German team Borussia Moenchengladbach.
The 21-year-old Thorgan Hazard didn't play a competitive match for Chelsea after signing in 2012 — in the same summer as Eden joined from Lille.
Thorgan Hazard spent two full seasons on loan at Zulte Waregem, in his native Belgium, and has been on loan at Moenchengladbach this season.
German media are reporting that Hazard has moved for a fee of 8 million euros ($9 million).
Chelsea says Monday it has the right to exercise a future buy-back option on Hazard.

New Candidate Comparison Chart Requested
Submitted by aerograd on Fri, 09/14/2012 - 10:27Remember the chart that was made by someone on here comparing Mitt, RP, Newt, and Santorum for the Primaries?
We need a new one comparing Obama, Romney, RP, GJ, Virgil Goode, etc. across the board on a wide variety of topics of interest not just to us in the Liberty movement, but all other voters too.
I would love to post it on my office door at work as well as distribute it otherwise.
I know I should probably just take on this project myself rather than try to pawn it off on someone else, but I figured someone might have something like this already done or at least started.

"The Wieliczka Salt Mine" Top 5 Page for this destination Wieliczka by ThiagoRamos
Wieliczka Travel Guide: 119 reviews and 495 photos
If you get tired of castles, palaces, churches and old squares - or even if you don´t - the Wieliczka Salt Mine is an excellent alternative for a tour. Located in the outskirts of Krakow (around 10km I think), the mine is easily accessed by minibus in half an hour.
The mine was opened in the XIV Century (!!!) and the salt was extracted manually from the rocks by the miners. It seems that many miners had artistic vocation because they started to sculpt the salt rocks producing wonderful statues.
With time salt began to lose its original value and the mine became a tourist attraction. Nowadays there´s no mining there anymore.
First you descend unfinishable stairs and, when you´re more than 60 meters below the surface, the tour starts. You walk around 2 hours, passing through many chambers with all these amazing statues, a lake, the chapels and the guide explains the history of the mine, the legends and everything you need to know about it.
You walk almost 2km and the tour ends 135 meters below the surface. There you can buy postcards, souvenirs, visit the mining museum and take the elevator back to the sunlight.
For me the highlight of the tour was the Great Chapel!!! Unbelievable!!!
- Pros:Unusual tour, once in a lifetime experience...
- Cons:Krakow - you may prefer to enjoy a little more of Krakow...

Image courtesy Galaxy Zoo, William Keel, and NASA/ESA
Published January 10, 2011
Hanny's Voorwerp—a glowing, green blob in space—is unexpectedly giving birth to stars, a new Hubble Space Telescope picture has revealed.
The odd object was discovered in 2007 by a Dutch schoolteacher participating in Galaxy Zoo—"voorwerp" is Dutch for "object." The online project had public citizens worldwide helping to classify galaxies in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey catalog.
(See related pictures of the "green pea" class of galaxies discovered via Galaxy Zoo.)
Although it's the size of our Milky Way galaxy, Hanny's Voorwerp is not itself a galaxy, but a cloud of gas near the spiral galaxy IC 2497, which lies about 650 million light-years from Earth.
The new Hubble picture—the sharpest yet taken of the brilliant cloud—shows that gas in a small region of Hanny's Voorwerp is collapsing and forming stars, the youngest of which are just a couple million years old.
"The star clusters are localized, confined to an area that is over a few thousand light-years wide," study leader William Keel, of the University of Alabama in Tuscaloosa, said in a press release.
"The region may have been churning out stars for several million years. They are so dim that they have previously been lost in the brilliant light of the surrounding gas."
(Also see "Cosmic Blob Pictures: Galactic 'Coming of Age' Revealed.")
Hanny's Voorwerp Part of a Galactic Tail
Previous studies looking at radio emissions from Hanny's Voorwerp showed that the blob is part of a rope of gas 300,000 light-years long, which surrounds IC 2497.
Known as a tidal tail, this rope likely formed when the spiral galaxy merged with another galaxy about a billion years ago, Keel said.
Hanny's Voorwerp is the only part of the tail that glows in visible light, because the green cloud was recently doused in radiation from the supermassive black hole at the heart of IC 2497. (Related: "Black Hole Blasts Superheated Early Universe.")
According to Keel, the galactic merger injected a glut of stars and gas into the galaxy's center, spurring the black hole to go on a feeding frenzy. This caused the black hole to begin spewing jets of radiation from its poles.
The active black hole, known as a quasar, not only set Hanny's Voorwerp aflame, it also sent out a streamer of gas that's now interacting with the green blob, triggering star formation.
Astronomers only recently solved the puzzle using x-ray observations, because the quasar is now inactive.
"We just missed catching the quasar, because it turned off no more than 200,000 years ago," Keel said. "So what we're seeing [in Hanny's Voorwerp] is the afterglow from the quasar."
Keel discussed the new Hubble Space Telescope picture of Hanny's Voorwerp today at a press briefing during the 217th meeting of the American Astronomical Society in Seattle, Washington.

Susan Crean[edit]
(Couldn't find a WIKIPEDIA/SYNTH Noticeboard - I hope I'm in the right place ...?)
Article: Men's Rights
Source: Crean, Susan M. (1988). In the name of the fathers: the story behind child custody. Toronto: Amanita. pp. 107–108. ISBN 978-0-921299-04-2.
Article section: // Child custody
Family law is an area of deep concern among men's rights groups. Men's rights activists argue that the legal system and family courts discriminate against men, especially in regards to child custody after divorce.[64][65][66] They believe that men do not have the same contact rights or equitable shared parenting rights as their ex-spouse and use statistics on custody awards as evidence of judicial bias against men.[67] /..../
Critics argue that empirical research does not support the notion of judicial bias against men[64] and that men's rights advocates interpret statistics in a way that ignores the fact that the majority of men do not contest custody and *** do not seem to want it.[67] ***" //
- It is the *** starry, starry *** sentence at the end of the quote that poses a problem.
Crean's book covers issues surrounding the introduction of new family law in Canada in 1988. However accurate Crean's description of the issues, events and attitudes one could observe in Ontario more than 25 years ago, it can provide only scant justification for a blanket statement that fathers today - everyone of them, everywhere - generally do not want custody of their children.
Proposed Edit
- My opinion is that since the claim is unsupported, the claim must go; but perhaps there are other suggestions as to how one would best amend the article.
Desired feedback:
- If there is a consensus that Crean's 1988 local investigation - however true it may be - is not a reliable source for a universal claim that fathers do not want custody of their children, there are two options: to be bold, and edit,
or to propose a change on the talk pages. I favour the latter, but it would be nice to hear an outside opinion on whether Crean, for the purposes of the _article claim_ (not the content of the book itself), can be considered a RS or not, whether the claim is SYNTH/OR or not - the mood at Men's Rights can easily degenerate into the partisan, so it won't do to fan any flames.
Previous discussion
- I aired this on the talk pages in November 2013 (archive page 22, "On Fathers' Rights"), and I think that by now I have left ample time for disagreements to be voiced, of which there have been none since my last edit in that section on that topic.
T 188.8.131.52 (talk) 00:16, 28 January 2015 (UTC)
- The operative question is whether the claim is in the source. If not, it should be removed entirely and immediately. If it is in the source, it is not original research. There may be other reasons to remove it, and it almost certainly should be qualified as an opinion of a particular person in a particular time and place. Rhoark (talk) 02:01, 4 February 2015 (UTC)
- Hi, thx for answering, and pls forgive me for claiming more attention, but could it be specified what "the claim" is? As per above, there are two claims: A) A majority of men in Ontario in 1988 did not want child custody, according to Crean; and B) A majority of men in general do not want child custody, according to editor interpretation of Crean on the Men's rights page. I do not contest A, but I do contest that A can reasonably be used as evidence for the much wider-in-scope claim B.
- I would also feel fairly confident that even if Crean proposes B, that a claim about the state of affairs in Ontario 27 years ago is not sufficient support for the truth of that assertion today. The difference would be that if Crean does not state B, the entire claim can be removed; if Crean does state B, the section could be expanded to reflect the qualifications listed in the response above.
- T 18.104.22.168 (talk) 12:42, 10 February 2015 (UTC)
- "if Crean does not state B, the entire claim can be removed; if Crean does state B, the section could be expanded to reflect the qualifications" - all there is to it Rhoark (talk) 23:16, 20 February 2015 (UTC)
- Thank you very much. T 2001:4610:A:5E:0:0:0:16E1 (talk) 00:47, 21 February 2015 (UTC)
- "if Crean does not state B, the entire claim can be removed; if Crean does state B, the section could be expanded to reflect the qualifications" - all there is to it Rhoark (talk) 23:16, 20 February 2015 (UTC)
- Please note that "T" has been trying to get RS removed since 2013. The perfectly reliable Crean source supports the statement 100 percent. The full quote is: The men's rights movement, which has taken up joint custody as the rallying cry for fathers of all persuasions. Taking the statistics on custody awards as incontrovertible evidence of judicial bias against men, they pay no heed to the fact that the vast majority of men do not contest custody and do not seem to want it. "T" needs to accept consensus and drop the stick. "T" is welcome to provide RS about the MRM that are more in line with his perceptions of the MRM. --Sonicyouth86 (talk) 16:10, 21 February 2015 (UTC)
Eliza Jane Scovill[edit]
Eliza Jane Scovill was a child who died of AIDS-like symptoms. The mother, who's an AIDS denialist, hired Mohammed Al Bayati to perform an autopsy. Al Bayati concluded that Eliza didn't die of AIDS, but something else. The dispute arises over whether Al Bayati's qualifications should be listed in the article. I think it violates OR, specifically Synthesis. In particular the qualifications being on the page implies that Al Bayati is not qualified to do the autopsy. Either the sources linked made this assertion (Al Bayati not qualified to do the autopsy) or they did not. If the sources did make the assertion, then the text is imperfect since it does not explicitly make the statement. If the sources did not make this assertion, then the text constitutes Synthesis. Against that Yobol thinks it provides vital context and should be included, and that there is nothing wrong with providing the facts for the reader to draw his or her own conclusions.
Need help on this one. We've come to rather a dead end on the talk page. Banedon (talk) 02:00, 7 February 2015 (UTC)
- Assuming you have sources that are individually reliable for claims A and B
- Synthesis:
- A, therefore B.
- A because B.
- A; however, B.
- Not synthesis:
- A and B.
- Rhoark (talk) 22:15, 7 February 2015 (UTC)
I posted an RfC for this topic. Please see Talk:Eliza_Jane_Scovill#RfC. Banedon (talk) 02:10, 27 February 2015 (UTC)
I am soliciting comments for an RfC that is currently open on the "Glengarry Glen Ross (film)" page. There is disagreement about where the film is set (New York vs. Chicago).
One of the issues is whether it is original research to cite to elements in the film itself (including a statement in the end credits that it was "filmed on location in New York City"). Another editor claims that only secondary sources should be cited.
In this particular case, all of the elements in the film itself clearly and overwhelmingly indicate New York City as the setting (see the RfC for details). However, the secondary sources (mostly film commentaries) are more confused. Some secondary sources mention off-hand that the film was set in New York; while others mention Chicago as the setting. The confusion is perhaps understandable, since the original Broadway play of Glengarry Glen Ross was set in Chicago.
I believe that in this context, direct reference to the primary source (the film) to settle the argument is allowable because the primary source is being used to cite a "straightforward, descriptive statement of facts that can be verified by any educated person with access to the primary source but without further, specialized knowledge." The other editor disagrees, claiming that this would be original research and insists on using only the secondary sources. We have gotten to the point where we are arguing about the qualifications of the commentators in the secondary sources. To me it feels like we are arguing about whether it is raining outside, when we could just go and look out the window. Comments welcome. Xanthis (talk) 06:42, 18 February 2015 (UTC)
AJ Lee#In wrestling[edit]
The situation stems on me citing a song AJ Lee used in 2011 for the list of songs the subject used as an "entrance theme", or a song used while the subject walks out to before she performs. prefall (talk · contribs) reverted my edit and notes that the source I used had the song performed on it, but did not explicitly list the title or artist of the song. If I linked another source that plays the song and states what the artist and title is, would that count as WP:SYNTH? --wL<speak·check> 00:51, 23 February 2015 (UTC)
Did the homelessness cause the deaths?[edit]
There is a dispute in 2014 Israel–Gaza conflict regarding the issue of people (including babies) dying in the cold. We have discussed at the talk page but as we are stuck, I am asking here for comments. This is what I first inserted:
- "As of 1 February 2015, only US$125 million of the $2.7 billion had been paid out, leaving tens of thousands of Gazans still homeless. At least four people (including three babies) were frozen to death in the cold."
It was sourced to this article in Swedish by Helsingborgs Dagblad. The following is a translation made by me about the two sentences regarding homeless Gazans and people dying in the cold:
- This means that tens of thousands Gazans are still homeless, and at least four people, whereof three babies, have been frozen to death during the last month's winter cold.
- "This is a tremendous achievement; it is also wholly insufficient. It is easy to look at these numbers and lose sight of the fact that we are talking about thousands of families who continue to suffer through this cold winter with inadequate shelter. People are literally sleeping amongst the rubble, children have died of hypothermia," Turner added."
Monopoly31121993 and WarKosign have said that the claim is not supported by the source, with the first one saying "Neither of those quotes says what WarKosign has pointed out ("an infant died of cold after their house was damaged/destroyed in the recent conflict") so it's still OR" and the second one saying, amongst other things, "As far as I can tell no source explicitly connects the freezing to death to the buildings being damaged in the fighting. They mention the damage and that some families remained homeless so is a very reasonable conclusion that a reader can draw, but I don't think it was ever stated explicitly that "an infant died of cold after their house was damaged/destroyed in the recent conflict". They even mention infants dying in Lebanon, certainly it was not connected to the conflict".
I and The Magnificent Clean-keeper have said that the claim is supported by the source. --IRISZOOM (talk) 16:59, 25 February 2015 (UTC)
- @IRISZOOM: For the Nth time, I do not say that it's OR or SYNTH and do not object to including it.
- I pointed that the source does not explicitly say that homelessness caused hypothermia, it is implied by the grouping of the sentences. The phrase that you added to the article does the same, so it is OK. "WarKosign" 18:32, 25 February 2015 (UTC)
- I think it was the best available venue to write in.
- The source does say it's because the homelessness. It is not something I am interpreting myself but what they are stating. If you are not against the wording I used, that's good. --IRISZOOM (talk) 18:38, 25 February 2015 (UTC)
- Your translation is a compound sentence that consists of two independent clauses: "This means that tens of thousands Gazans are still homeless." and "At least four people, whereof three babies, have been frozen to death during the last month's winter cold."
- Turner's quote does the same: "People are literally sleeping amongst the rubble, children have died of hypothermia" - it is implied that the first part causes the second, but it is never stated explicitly. "WarKosign" 20:08, 25 February 2015 (UTC)
- The source does say it's because the homelessness. It is not something I am interpreting myself but what they are stating. If you are not against the wording I used, that's good. --IRISZOOM (talk) 18:38, 25 February 2015 (UTC)
- I think it's clear that they connect it to the homelessness and destruction of homes. Here is a statement by one from UNICEF: "Four infants died from complications caused by the bitter cold in Gaza in January: four-month-old Rahaf, one-month-old Adel, three-month-old Salma and 18-month-old Fadi. All were from families whose houses were destroyed during the last conflict and were living in extremely dire conditions". --IRISZOOM (talk) 20:35, 25 February 2015 (UTC)
- It's another example of the same - this source does not say explicitly that the destruction of the houses was the reason they died, it lets the reader draw this conclusion. "WarKosign" 21:30, 25 February 2015 (UTC)
- You can have a look here, compare Compounding Sentences ("one thing simply comes after another and the logical relationship between the ideas is not always evident or important") and Subordinating One Clause to Another ("subordinating one clause to another establishes a more complex relationship between ideas, showing that one idea depends on another in some way: a chronological development, a cause-and-effect relationship, a conditional relationship, etc."). "WarKosign" 09:28, 26 February 2015 (UTC)
- I think it's clear that they connect it to the homelessness and destruction of homes. Here is a statement by one from UNICEF: "Four infants died from complications caused by the bitter cold in Gaza in January: four-month-old Rahaf, one-month-old Adel, three-month-old Salma and 18-month-old Fadi. All were from families whose houses were destroyed during the last conflict and were living in extremely dire conditions". --IRISZOOM (talk) 20:35, 25 February 2015 (UTC)
- @WarKosign. Does your comment above mean you're within the consensus that the original content can be re-added? Just want to make clear I haven't misunderstood your statement.TMCk (talk) 18:53, 25 February 2015 (UTC)
- @The Magnificent Clean-keeper: I do not object to including the content above or any other content unless it adds explicit causality not present in the source."WarKosign" 19:07, 25 February 2015 (UTC)
- IRISZOOM, you forgot to mention the fact that I objected to quoting the Swedish source on EN Wikipedia but it doesn't matter if you're going to use Al Jazeera English's article. How about writing "In February 2015, Al Jazeera reported that four infants from families living in Gaza whose houses were destroyed during the war died from complications caused by cold whether in January." I think this is NPOV.Monopoly31121993 (talk) 10:12, 26 February 2015 (UTC)
- Wow, also, I suggest everyone read that article. It's about how children has died because they got burned trying to keep warm (or more likely, since they were infants, someone else accidentally burned them). The objective folks at Al Jazeera sensationalized it by titling the article "Babies die in Gaza due to the resource siege" but no one actually says that and all the article discusses is how children have died from burns that they received as they tried to stay warm.Monopoly31121993 (talk) 10:28, 26 February 2015 (UTC)
- IRISZOOM, you forgot to mention the fact that I objected to quoting the Swedish source on EN Wikipedia but it doesn't matter if you're going to use Al Jazeera English's article.

I think this is NPOV.Monopoly31121993 (talk) 10:12, 26 February 2015 (UTC)
- And I have explained to you that it's acceptable to use a Swedish source, Monopoly31121993, so you were wrong on this. I don't know why you keep saying we can use other sources when this one is acceptable.
- The official from UNICEF does say to Al Jazeera that the destruction of homes led later to complications they later died of. We also got other reports about such complications, such as an official from UNWRA. I repeat, there is no doubt we can use Helsingborgs Dagblad's report and the claim they made does not seem odd considering other reports similiar things. The quote in Al Jazeera can certainly be used but that does not mean we can't use the one from Helsingborgs Dagblad.
- I see that you now have removed it again and replaced it with the report from AJ. Why did you later remove from your own edit that it was four infants and that complications caused by the cold was the reason? You replaced it with "died from fire accidents caused by improper heating". But UNICEF does not say so. Read the sentence above that quote: "Even as open fires and poor electrics pose a risk for displaced families, icy and damp conditions continue to claim young victims of hypothermia" and the quote by Catherine Weibel from UNICEF. --IRISZOOM (talk) 12:58, 26 February 2015 (UTC)
- IRISZOOM , I used the source you gave here. What's the problem? And yes, I changed it after I actually had read it and realized it wasn't saying exactly what you claimed, it was saying something different.Monopoly31121993 (talk) 18:14, 26 February 2015 (UTC)
- @Monopoly31121993: Look carefully, it supports the deaths of hypothermia as well. "WarKosign" 18:34, 26 February 2015 (UTC)

- If you google gaza babies dying cold you´ll find lots of sources, including this Ynet article, and this Maan.news: "A Palestinian infant fell ill and died due to severe cold in Khan Younis in the southern Gaza Strip on Friday" "Her family reportedly continued living in their damaged home despite the destruction.

- Read the ynetnews article carefully. It doesn't imply any connection between damage to the buildings and the hypothermia; it is mentioned but the stated reasons for deaths are the extreme weather and lack of fuel for the power station. "WarKosign" 07:22, 1 March 2015 (UTC)
- Since this entire discussion relates to your reading of one edited quote from Al Jazeera I have simply added the exact quote and the name and title of the person who gave it to the article. It reads as follows: In late February 2015, Al Jazeera quoted Catherine Weibel, UNICEF's Communication Chief in Jerusalem, who said "Four infants died from complications caused by the bitter cold in Gaza in January... All were from families whose houses were destroyed during the last conflict and were living in extremely dire conditions."[1]Monopoly31121993 (talk) 13:22, 1 March 2015 (UTC)

"Synthesis" argument used to reject any mention of a common phrase[edit]
The dispute is regarding Charlie Hebdo issue No. 1178. This is the "survivor's issue" which was (correctly, IMO) retitled to something more neutral.
The problem began with an editor who claims that absolutely no use of the phrase "survivor's issue" is to be permitted. I have pointed out that it has been used by a large number of reputable sources. (This point is not in dispute.) My original edit said "also known as the survivor's issue", but I was and am open to any rephrasing. I don't really care where the mention is in the article. The point is, a lot of people and sources are using this as a alternative title or synonym for issue No. 1178 and so it bears mentioning somewhere.
So, this dispute is NOT about: retitling the article, making any claims about the prevalence of the phrase "survivor's issue", inserting the phrase "survivor's issue" into any particular place or in any particular way, inserting any bias or emotional or original content into the article in any way, a particular fixation on preceding words such as "known as". (If there is a better way of prefacing that phrase--"unofficially known as", "sometimes known as", etc.--that is fine, but other editors involved in the dispute have not proposed any that they would deem acceptable.)
This is simply about being able to use a phrase that many reliable sources use in some fashion. ANY fashion.
The synthesis argument being used to argue against this: apparently, it's like like Simon Says. To use a phrase you have to find a source referring to another source using the phrase--otherwise, it's synthesis . It is not enough that multiple reliable sources are using a particular phrase to identify a particular thing--we must have a reliable source that identifies a reliable source that is identifying a particular thing with a particular phrase. In this particular case, the argument is that I can't say "also known as the survivor's issue" because no source contains that exact quote.
I believe this is absurd on its face.
First off, no one has suggested the need for a source that says the magazine in question "is known as issue No. 1178". Meta-sources are only required for certain things, it seems.
Also, Wikipedia is more than a collection of literally verbatim quotes from other sources. The prohibition on synthesis does not forbid all forms of paraphrasing or editing. If it did, all of the articles on the front page right now would have to be purged of at least 90% of their content.
Analogy: it is akin to removing the phrase "also known as salt" from the top of the sodium chloride page if it turned out all of the sources only directly referred to sodium chloride as salt (or vice versa) and did not contain a literal phrase along the lines of "...known as salt".
Synthesis is not a synonym for paraphrasing or summarizing. Synthesis should not and cannot be used to ban a widely used phrase from an article on the basis that no meta-source can be found that analyzes or comments on other sources' use of that phrase.
Am I wrong?
It only works in practice (talk) 22:47, 28 February 2015 (UTC)
- And let's be really, extra clear on something: there's a lot of text on the talk page about "generally" and "widely" that has muddied the issue. That's not the dispute, and that wasn't in my original edit. This is about banning any mention of the phrase "survivor's issue" on the sole basis that the sources don't appear to self-referentially talk about the usage of the term "survivor's issue". It only works in practice (talk) 23:02, 28 February 2015 (UTC)
- There is one further point to consider: implicit labeling. If I point at something and say "ball", the very obvious implicit statement I am making is "that thing is known as a ball." Similarly, usage of the phrase "survivor's issue" when clearly referring to Charlie Hebdo issue No. 1178 contains a very clear implicit "is known as (at least to me)".
- However, regardless of this point and regardless of the article in question... I think the broader issue of what synthesis actually is (and isn't) needs to be addressed and clarified. It only works in practice (talk) 23:24, 28 February 2015 (UTC)
- Hi there, It only works in practice. Using the phrase "best known for" is something editors don't like in BLP articles. It's best to stick to facts. Provided you word your contribution carefully, you should be all right. This report from Thursday's "Daily Telegraph", published just across the English Channel from France, may be of interest.
Charlie Hebdo back on the streets
The French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo returned to newsstands yesterday with the words "We're back!" and a cartoon depicting the Pope, a jihadist and the French far - right leader Marine Le Pen as a pack of enraged animals.
The magazine took a break from weekly publishing after rushing out a "survivors' issue" a week after the Jan 7 jihadist attack on its Paris office in which 123 people were killed. The new issue is due to have a print run of 2.5 million and will be published as far afield as the United States. Before the attack the normal print run was 60,000. 22.214.171.124 (talk) 19:44, 4 March 2015 (UTC)
Calendar synthesis?[edit]
In this edit User:220.127.116.11 cites some early 20th century news stories and concludes "This is a paradox, since a church or country cannot change to the Gregorian calendar twice (unless it has stopped using it in the intervening period)." The editor also concludes "Where a source says that a church or country adopted a certain calendar it is not necessarily correct." I suggest these conclusions constitute synthesis. Furthermore, the sources are inappropriate; news stories are known to often be inaccurate and Wikipedia article should rely on secondary sources for events long past. Finally, instruction in how to use sources is not suitable material for a Wikipedia article, even if the instructions were correct. Jc3s5h (talk) 15:47, 1 March 2015 (UTC)
- This is nothing to do with synthesis, which is conflating statements to make a claim which neither of the statements makes. Jc3s5h says we should use secondary sources - which newspapers are. Since he says newspapers are inaccurate, it is appropriate to use the primary sources. WP:RS says that "the most reputable reporting sometimes contains errors" and that the more checking is done of what is reported in secondary sources the better it will be. I have explained this in
For 12 years from 1700 Sweden used a modified Julian calendar, and adopted the Gregorian calendar in 1753.
The only way to confirm information regarding a change of calendar is to examine the relevant legislation. (See Gregorian calendar#Gregorian reform). An authoritative source[2] states that Russia changed on 31 January/14 February 1918 and Greece on 10/24 March 1924.
Areas of Russia not under Bolshevik control at the start of 1918 changed on different dates.[3] The date given for Greece is actually the date that the Greek Orthodox Church adopted the Revised Julian calendar. For civil purposes, Greece changed on 15 February/1 March 1923.[4]
In the twentieth century the Roman Breviary, the most authoritative source apart from the Papal Bull, stated that if the Epact is 25 and the Sunday Letter is C Easter Sunday is 25 April. It may still say that, and it is wrong. Some calendars are so alike that it is difficult to tell them apart. The Gregorian and Revised Julian dates are currently identical. For Muslims, the dates in the Turkish Islamic calendar, Umm - al - Qura calendar of Saudi Arabia and tabular Islamic calendar may be the same but they have different rules. There are a number of variations of the tabular calendar.
and Jc3s5h has raised no objection. 126.96.36.199 (talk) 16:27, 1 March 2015 (UTC)
- ^ "Babies die in Gaza due to the resource siege". Al Jazeera. 24 February 2015.
- ^ Nautical almanac offices of the United Kingdom and United States, Explanatory Supplement to the Astronomical Ephemeris and the American Ephemeris and Nautical Almanac (London: Her Majesty's Stationery Office, 1961), pp. 413 - 416.
- ^ See the summary at Toke Nørby, The Perpetual Calendar..
- ^ See Social Security Administration publication GN 00307.180 - Gregorian/Julian calendar.
Jc3s5h has tried this trick before. I removed a quote from an authoritative source that he had inserted into Gregorian calendar because mathematically the information could not be correct. Jc3s5h restored it because in his view if it was in a reliable source it should be included. I then had to ferret round for a source which said the information was incorrect before I could remove it again. That's the old "Verifiability not truth" canard which was thrown out years ago. To preserve our reputation we can and must warn readers that authoritative sources cannot be relied upon if that is the case. 220.127.116.11 (talk) 16:35, 1 March 2015 (UTC)
- It's true that the disputed section "Adoption paradox" is not synthesis, but at the same time it's not really about the Gregorian calendar either - rather, the section discusses the accuracy of sources, an issue which is not limited to calendars. As such, it is not suitable for the article in question. Arcorann (talk) 12:08, 2 March 2015 (UTC)
- It's a sub - set of the whole. By definition, what is relevant to the whole is relevant to the sub - set also. 22.214.171.124 (talk) 13:17, 2 March 2015 (UTC)
- It's obviously synthesis, because it is based upon a particular interpretation laid upon a set of newspaper reports. Simply from the excerpts provided it is unclear exactly what happened other than that the Turks went off the Islamic calendar and (eventually, perhaps immediately) adopted the Gregorian. After all that the point being argued is unclear. Mangoe (talk) 18:07, 3 March 2015 (UTC)
- The last paragraph is absolutely synthesis - your definition is flawed. If reliable sources come to the same conclusion you do in that last paragraph, then cite them. Otherwise, the text is original research. In addition, you either or unknowledgable or wikilawyering when you stated in this diff that "The majority of editors have not said this is synthesis". Consensus is not based on vote counts, and no one supports your edit except you. Finally, I know you are evading, and you know you are evading. That you are obsessed with these articles is OK, if only you could follow WP:3RR, WP:NPA, WP:OR, and WP:RS. You are heading down the rabbit hole again. JoeSperrazza (talk) 16:54, 4 March 2015 (UTC)

Fabric tends to "pill" so best to handwash or on delicate cycle. I love these and found it hard not to buy one in every color! They do last for years with proper care.

Bought this (and maxi dress)for my daughter she chose a simple destination wedding. Packed very well and looked simple but elegant. She looked beautiful and had numerous comments on her dress.
Lovely and Versatile
By Songbird
from Salt Lake City, UT
About Me Classic Dresser
This lovely crocheted piece can be dressed up or down. It can be worn with jeans or with a satin blouse underneath and a skirt and out on the town! The delicate nature of finely crocheted clothing makes it lean against durability if abused....but I think with proper care, it will last a long time.The angle of the photo did not make it clear where the model's waistline was. I did think that this top would be waist-length, but it fell a bit above my waist. And I am just 5'2", so just be aware of that.

Matzpen, the Israeli socialist organization, has never had more than a few dozen active members. Still, at the end of the sixties and beginning of the seventies, it was considered a real threat to the Israeli political and social consensus. Most of Matzpen's members were Israeli born, coming from the deep core of Israeli society. Their fight against Zionism and against the occupation, as well as their contacts with Palestinian and European left-wing activists, were the cause of threats, slander, as well as political and social isolation. The film touches on the main issues of the Zionist-Palestinian struggle, through the eyes of some of the organization's prominent figures, their ideas, opinions and activities, then and today.--http://matzpen.org/eran/index.html.

Cybersecurity is a quickly growing field and we see the Oregon State University College of Engineering has collaborated with Intel Security to offer a course at OSU called "Defense Against the Dark Art." The class of 45 students filled up almost immediately after it was announced. The class will be videotaped and there are plans to make it available in the future to other universities.
Big turnout for the Womenspace fifth annual "End the Silence" community breakfast Feb. 4. An estimated 320 to 350 people, including many local dignitaries and business owners, showed up on a cold, dark, wet morning for the 7 am free buffet at Valley River Inn. A "survivor panel" of women told their personal stories about intimate partner violence and how Womenspace services helped and continues to help them through the challenges.
Tiny Tavern at 394 Blair Blvd. in the Whit has reopened under new management after being shut down by the Lane County Health Department Dec. 5. The self-described dive bar, restaurant and live music venue had a Superbowl party Sunday, and we're hearing good things about the new, improved and more sanitary Tiny's. It was missed while it was closed. See our Letters this week.

If you go online to search for Prudential Real Estate in Lane County you will automatically be rerouted to Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices. Billionaire Warren Buffet recently bought Prudential and associated businesses for an undisclosed amount and brought them under his Berkshire brand.

The Ducks might have lost some feathers in Dallas this week, but we hear local pizza and other take-out businesses had one of their busiest sales times ever in the hours leading up to the national championship game. One pizza maker we talked to said he was swamped starting at 10 am Monday filling orders for home game-watching parties. As it turns out, comfort food was badly needed, particularly in the second half of the game.
We hear the dramatically lower gas prices are good for local businesses. Transportation costs are down for everything that travels by car or truck, which improves profits now and maybe customers will benefit later. Car sales are up and more people are traveling. The downsides don't get much attention. High fuel prices helped alternative transportation enterprises grow and kept our focus on locally produced goods. Will we see bike businesses and local farmers take a hit, and less support for cycling and pedestrians? We expect urgent care and ER rooms to get more business.
We understand why private investors are motivated to build student-housing complexes. College enrollment is predicted to grow and the projects pencil out as profitable even if they are not filled to capacity, particularly if tax breaks are involved. Once built and operating, they can be sold to other big-time investors to cover costs and pocket a few million bucks. But what we don't understand is why they are designed to accommodate only single students for the life of the building, say 40 to 50 years.
Where would Jesus eat? Many local restaurants will be closed Christmas Day. Among the businesses that will be open is Agate Alley Bistro & Bar at 1461 E. 19th Ave., but only from 5 to 10 pm so the staff can have Christmas morning off. If you are planning on dining out anywhere Christmas Day, we recommend calling ahead and leaving big tips. Going to the coast? We once showed up late and ravenous for a Christmas buffet at a fancy hotel near Depot Bay and found only scraps of salmon and halibut, but plenty of mystery meat, soggy broccoli and cold potatoes.
Alice Doyle of Log House Plants in Cottage Grove has been working for the past five years with Dutch and American horticultural researchers to refine and market a "Ketchup 'n' Fries" grafted plant that grows potatoes underground and tomatoes above ground. Potatoes and tomatoes are related, and the first such graft was recorded in the early 1900s by Luther Burbank. The local Territorial Seed Company will have a national exclusive to sell mail-order plants and "I'm sure they'll see quite a bit of action," Doyle says.
Tiny Tavern in the Whiteaker was shut down by Lane County health inspectors Dec. 5 for health code violations, according to the Eugene Brewery District website. The bar at 394 Blair Blvd. scored 67 points out of 100 and "according to regulations, any score of 70 or less will require the business to close its doors until corrections and a re-inspection can be made," says the website. Jeff Malos owns the building and is rumored to be looking to sell it. Back in our Sept. 25 Biz Beat, we wrote about the bar closing when manager Jeff Peck left to open Old Nick's Pub.
The Dexter Lake Club closed Nov. 17 and the land and building are for sale for $279,000, according to the nightclub and café's Facebook page and website. The club was featured in Animal House in 1977 and has been in operation along Highway 58 since 1949. The business has changed hands nearly a dozen times, most recently in 2011 when Greg and Shannon Stewart took over the roadhouse from Michael McCann. Hundreds of local musicians have performed there over the years.
Tsunami Books on south Willamette was given notice earlier this fall that the building was going on the market and the longtime independent book store and performance venue would likely need to find a new home (see Biz Beat, 9/25). But we heard from store owner Scott Landfield that the building is now in the process of being sold to someone who supports the store staying put for at least a couple of years.
Congrats to NextStep Recycling founder Lorraine Kerwood McKenzie who was given the Toyota Standing O-Vation, a recognition of extraordinary people in communities around the country, during Oprah Winfrey's "The Life You Want Weekend" in Seattle Nov. 8. The award was given by Winfrey and Paralympic bronze medalist snowboarder Amy Purdy.
A Whiteaker neighborhood building and land at 252 Lawrence St., across the street from Crux Rock Climbing Gym, has been sold to Rick Wright, the CEO of Market of Choice, to become an events center, and we heard from one small business being evicted, Bohemia Café & Apothecary. Co-owner Felicia Parra-Colden tells us the eviction was given with short notice, but she was able to negotiate more time to relocate.
InEugene Real Estate is Eugene's newest real estate brokerage, located at the corner of East Broadway and Oak Street. Eugene native and principal broker Ben Fogelson says he is being "highly particular about selecting agents" for his brokerage. "Being a high-producing agent doesn't get you in the door," he says. "We are not, nor will we ever be salespeople.
Sweet Potato Pie is closing after 20 years in business in Eugene, first downtown on 11th Avenue and then at 775 Monroe St. next to Sweet Life in the Whiteaker. The store features locally made clothing and natural products and Saturday will be the last day. Owner Elizabeth Thompson says the move away from downtown was expensive and foot traffic in the Whiteaker has been bad. She has kept the store going over the past five years by working full-time jobs around town.
Ring of Fire has closed and may reopen later in a new location, according to a message on the restaurant's phone service. The Thai and Pacific Rim restaurant, bar and catering service at 11th and Chambers is owned by Josh Keim, and has been a Eugene favorite since around the turn of the century.
At least three new hotels are popping up on the drawing boards for Eugene and some might actually get built. One hotel is included in proposals for redevelopment of the EWEB surplus property, a seven-story hotel is back on the expansion plans at Oakway Center and a third hotel was revealed in tentative plans for the Civic Stadium property.
Tsunami Books is in a pickle. Owner Scott Landfield tells us the building that has housed Tsunami Books on South Willamette for 20 years is up for sale through Evans, Elder & Brown. Landfield says he has decided to keep the business going, "but where and how are now up in the air." Ideally, he says, someone would buy the building and keep him as a tenant. "We here at Tsunami Books are totally focused on having our best holiday season ever, beginning today," he says.
StoveTec, a local for-profit stove enterprise, is pledging financial support for StoveTeam International, a nonprofit organization that brings safe, fuel-efficient and low-emission stoves to communities in Mexico and Central America. Under the new sponsorship, StoveTec — which markets wood cook stoves developed at Aprovecho Research Center in Cottage Grove — will donate a portion of its domestic for-profit sales to support StoveTeam International.
About $24 million in federal funding for the West Eugene EmX project passed the Metropolitan Policy Committee unanimously last week, according to Rob Zako, executive director of Better Eugene-Springfield Transit (BEST).
