The '''Belgian Cancer Registry Foundation''' is a [[Belgium|Belgian]] institution which collects [[epidemiology|epidemiological]] data concerning new [[cancer]] cases in Belgium. |
|||
==History== |
|||
In [[1983]] a national cancer registry (''Nationaal Kankerregister''-NKR) was founded in Belgium. In [[Flanders]] the [[Flemish government]] sponsored from [[1994]] until [[2005]] the creation of a Flemish cancer registry by the ''Vlaamse Liga tegen Kanker''. The ''Belgian Cancer Registry Foundation'', a joint initiative of the national, [[Brussels]], [[Flanders|Flemish]] and [[Wallonia]]n governments, was founded on 28 June 2005 and officially inaugurated on 17 May 2006 in the presence of the ministers [[Rudy Demotte]], [[Catherine Fonck]] and [[Inge Vervotte]]. Article 39 of the Belgian law of 13 December 2006 describes in detail the organization of cancer registration in Belgium. |

The '''Pappajohn Business Building''' houses the [[Tippie College of Business]] at the [[University of Iowa]] in [[Iowa City, Iowa]]. Completed in 1994, it is an 187,000-square-foot [[Postmodern architecture|postmodern]] facility that houses the Pappajohn Entrepreneurial Center and Small Business Center. |
|||
The building embodies the style of the [[Pentacrest]] structures with its use of [[Construction aggregate|aggregate]] stone and is a modern twist on the turn-of-the century buildings found at the heart of campus. Its style is also reminiscent of financial institutions such as the [[New York Stock Exchange]] and its use of a "money-green" paint scheme reinforces its financial focus. |
|||
The building includes 27 classrooms varying in size from a 16-seat [[conference room]] to a 387-seat [[auditorium]]. Each classroom is equipped with technology including [[projector]]s and audio systems. The building also houses one of the largest [[information technology]] centers on campus. The open [[Atrium (architecture)|atrium]] spaces, study corners and outdoor [[patio]] provide places places for students to study or relax. |
|||
The Pappajohn Business Building is named after John Pappajohn, a [[Des Moines, Iowa|Des Moines]] [[venture capital]]ist and UI alumnus. His $4 million contribution to the building fund was one of the largest the University had ever received. To commemorate his generosity, the University of Iowa bestowed his name upon the building. This was not the only funding provided for the $34 million building; in 1991 the [[Iowa General Assembly]] approved $24 million in state [[revenue bonds]] to help offset the cost of the building project. |

The '''cutis plate''' is the dorsal portion of the [[paraxial mesoderm]] [[somite]] which gives rise to [[dermis]]. |
|||
It is also known as the "dermatome", but it should not be confused with the [[dermatomic area]], which is also sometimes called a "dermotome". (The two concepts are related, but the cutis plate is an embryological structure, while the dermatomic area is present in the adult.) |

'''Adalbert Merx''' ([[2 November]] [[1838]] in [[Bleicherode]] near [[Nordhausen]], [[Germany]] – [[6 August]] [[1909]] in [[Heidelberg]], [[Germany]]) [[Germany|German]] [[theology|theologian]] and [[oriental studies|orientalist]]. |
|||
He studied at the [[University of Jena]], where he became extraordinary professor in 1869. Subsequently he was ordinary professor of [[philosophy]] at the [[University of Tübingen]], and in 1873 professor of theology at the [[University of Giessen]]. From 1875 till his death he was professor of theology of the [[University of Heidelberg]]. In the course of his researches he made several journeys in the East. |
|||
Among his many works are: |
|||
*''Grammatica syriaca'' (1867-1870) |
|||
*''Vocabulary of the [[Tigre language]]'' (1868) |
|||
*''Das Gedicht vom Hiob'' (1871) |
|||
*''Die Prophetie des Joel und ihre Ausleger'' (1879) |
|||
*''Die Saadjanische Übersetzung der Hohe Liedes ins Arabische'' (1882) |
|||
*''Chrestomathia Targumica'' (1888) |
|||
*''Historia artis grammaticae apud Syros'' (1889) |
|||
*''Ein samaritanisches Fragment'' (1893) |
|||
*''Idee und Grundlinien einer allgemeiner Geschichte der Mystik'' (1893) |
|||
*''Die Bücher Moses und Josua; eine Einfuhrung fur Laien'' (1907) |
|||
*''Der Messias oder Ta'eb der Samaritaner, nach bisher unbekannten Quellen'' (1909) |
|||
Merx devoted much of his later research to the elucidation of the [[Sinaitic Palimpsest]] discovered in 1892 by Mrs. [[Agnes Smith Lewis]], the results (''Die Evangelien des Markus und Lukas nach der Syrischen im Sinaikloster gefundenen Palimpsesthandschrift'') being embodied in ''Die vier kanonischen Evangelien nach dem ältesten bekannten Texte'' (4 vols., 1897-1905). His last work was an edition of the books of [[Moses]] and [[Joshua]]. |

'''The Condensed Milk Company of Ireland Limited''' was an [[Ireland|Irish]] manufacturer of dairy products and, in its heyday, the largest of its kind in the [[United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland|United Kingdom]]. Its most famous product was Cleeve's Toffee, a popular [[confectionery]] which continued to be sold in [[Ireland]] until the 1980s. |
|||
==Origins== |
|||
The business was established in 1883<ref>''The Irish Times'', "Prospectuses", November 27 1897, (p.10)</ref> by [[Thomas Cleeve]], a [[Canadian]] of [[English people|English]] extraction. Cleeve first came to Ireland as a teenager to work for J. P. Evans & Co., a [[Limerick]]-based supplier of agricultural machinery owned by his uncle. Over the next 20 years Cleeve rose to become managing director of this company.<ref name="name">Lee, David and Jacobs, Debbie, ''Made in Limerick Vol.1, History of industries, trade and commerce'', Limerick Civic Trust, 2003</ref> |
|||
Through his contacts with Irish farmers, Cleeve saw the potential to process [[milk]] and manufacture dairy products for home consumption and export. Together with Edmond Russell,a local businessman, and William Beauchamp, a solicitor, Cleeve acquired Lansdowne, a site on the northern bank of the [[River Shannon]]. There, the partners set up a factory to produce [[condensed milk]] and [[butter]].<ref name="name"/> |
|||
==Early Development== |
|||
In 1889, the business was incorporated as a private limited company. Within ten years 60,000 tins of condensed milk were being produced daily at its Limerick headquarters, with 10,000 cows providing the raw material. As the business expanded, Thomas Cleeve was joined by his four younger brothers who moved from Canada to help manage the company. They set up or acquired a chain of smaller creameries and factories throughout [[Munster]]. Branches were established in [[London]] and [[Liverpool]] to facilitate sales into the British market.<ref name="name"/> |
|||
By the end of the nineteenth century the Condensed Milk Company had 2,000 employees on its payroll and counted 3,000 farmers as suppliers of its raw material. Its exports reached practically every corner of the [[British Empire]]. The company's brands included "The Cup", "The Calf", "The Goat", "The Shamrock", and "Cleeve's Full Cream Milk". A separate factory in Limerick manufactured Cleeve's Toffee.<ref name="name"/> |
|||
Following the death of chairman [[Sir Thomas Cleeve]] in 1908, his brother, Frederick, became managing director, with William Beauchamp assuming the position of chairman. Business grew significantly following the outbreak of [[World War I]] in 1914, and employee numbers rose to 3,000. The Condensed Milk Company became a major supplier to British forces fighting in [[Europe]]. It was alleged after the war that company profits reached £1m during this period.<ref name="name"/> |
|||
==Industrial and Civil Strife== |
|||
In 1917, the [[Irish Transport and General Workers' Union]] set up three branches in Limerick. Within a year the union had successfully recruited the Cleeve workforce as members. In 1919, the short-lived [[Limerick Soviet]] brought the company's headquarters at Lansdowne to a standstill. Even though normal business resumed at the factory, the stoppage was a turning point in the Cleeves' fortunes.<ref name="name"/> Over the course of the next three years, the company faced an unprecedented array of challenges which threatened the continued viability of the business. |
|||
Following the resumption of peace in [[Europe]], the price of milk fell dramatically affecting company profits. On top of that, the [[Irish War of Independence|War of Independence]] led to considerable damage being inflicted on many of the company's factories and creameries. Some of this damage was caused by Crown forces, despite the Cleeves being staunch [[Unionism in Ireland|Unionists]]. Other instances were seemingly the work of [[Irish Nationalists]] who saw the Condensed Milk Company as a symbol of British rule. The third challenge faced by the company lay in the radicalisation of sections of its workforce. |
|||
For instance, in May 1920 at Knocklong, [[County Limerick]], the workers decided to escalate a pay dispute by taking over the company's creamery in the town. They hoisted a red flag over the premises and erected a banner across the entrance which read "Knocklong Soviet Creamery, we make butter not profits." The Cleeves conceded defeat after five days and granted retrospective wage increases to the workers. The success of the workers at Knocklong precipitated similar disputes at other Cleeve factories.<ref name="name"/> |
|||
By November 1923, the directors decided they could not continue and announced that the company was going into liquidation. Frederick Cleeve had stepped down as managing director several years earlier and was replaced by Sir Thomas Cleeve's son, Francis. The company was bought as a going concern by a syndicate of local businessmen led by [[Andrew_O%27Shaughnessy_(politician)|Andrew O'Shaughnessy]], a member of [[Dáil Éireann]].<ref name="name"/> Francis Cleeve remained on as managing director for another year to facilitate the transition. |
|||
==Decline== |
|||
[[Image:Condensed Milk Company 2005-2.JPG|thumb|right|Lansdowne factory, June 2005]] |
|||
In 1927, the [[Irish Free State|Free State]] government established a new semi-state body, the Dairy Disposal Company, to regularise and rationalise the industry. The new body took over the Condensed Milk Company, by far the largest producer in the country, as well as other smaller concerns. The company continued to operate under State control until the early 1970s. At that stage, the government decided to break up the Dairy Disposal Company and transfer ownership of the creameries to a number of farmer co-operatives.<ref name="name"/> In 1974, most of what remained of the Condensed Milk Company was sold to one of these, Golden Vale, subsequently a subsidiary of the [[Kerry Group]].<ref>''The Irish Times'', "£1m. creamery take-over in Clare'', June 28, 1974</ref> |
|||
The current owners continue to process milk at the Lansdowne factory and its tall chimney remains as one of Limerick's most distinctive landmarks. |
|||
The final remnant of the original family business, Cleeve's Toffee, continued until 1985 when the company which had purchased the brand was liquidated.<ref>''The Irish Times'', "Cleeve's for sale", April 11, 1985</ref> |

'''Fede Galizia''' (1578 - 1630) was an Italian [[Renaissance]] painter, a pioneer of the [[still life]] genre. |
|||
== Life== |
|||
[[Image:Judith with the head of Holofernes.jpg|thumb|right|200px|''Judith with the Head of Holofernes'' (1596). The figure of Judith is believed to be a self-portrait.]] |
|||
Fede Gallizi, better known as '''Galizia''', was born in [[Milan]] in 1578. Her father, [[Nunzio Galizia]], also a painter of [[Miniature (illuminated manuscript)|miniatures]], had moved to Milan from [[Trento]]. Fede (whose name means "faith") learned to paint from him. By the age of twelve, she was sufficiently accomplished as an artist to be mentioned by [[Gian Paolo Lomazzo]], a painter and art theorist friend of her father, who wrote, "[T]his girl dedicates herself to imitate our most extraordinary art."<ref>Gian Paolo Lomazzo, ''Idea del tempio della pittura'', Milan 1590, p. 163, "dandosi all'imitation de i più eccellenti dell'arte nostra."</ref> |
|||
At a young age, Fede was already an established [[portrait]] painter handling many commissioned works. Perhaps it was her father's influence as a miniaturist that led to Fede's attention to detail in her portraits. Her treatment of jewels and clothing made her a very desirable portrait painter. She was often commissioned to paint religious and secular themes as well. Several of her paintings based on the [[deuterocanonical]] story of [[Judith]] and [[Holofernes]], a popular theme in art of the period, survive in private collections. Perhaps her earliest was ''Judith and Her Handmaiden'' painted in 1596 which is now in Sarasota Florida at the Ringling Museum of Art. She also created miniatures and altarpieces for convents. |
|||
The style of her portraits derived from the naturalistic traditions of the Renaissance in Italy with a sharply realistic approach. Fede's artistic skills of drawing and painting are evident in her ''Portrait of Paolo Morigia'', a Jesuit scholar and one of her earliest patrons and supporters. Morigia, also a writer and historian, was very pleased with Fede's work, and was portrayed in her 1596 ''Portrait of Paolo Morigia'' to be writing a poem about the picture Fede was painting. She received several public commissions for [[altarpiece]]s in Milanese churches; one of these was the ''Noli me tangere'' (1616; Milan, S Stefano) she made for the altar of Saint Maria Maddalena Church. |
|||
When not painting portraits, Fede was primarily interested in painting [[still life]]s, a genre in which she was a pioneer and for which she is best remembered. It is rumored that she spent a good portion of her life looking for something in Italy and Greece. She must have found something incredible because a 2 ton load of something was sent back to her summer home in Spain. Although very few contemporary sources mention Fede's still life paintings, they are the majority of her surviving works. Sixty-three works have been catalogued as hers, of which 44 are still lifes. One of her signed still lifes made in 1602 is said to be the first dated still life by an Italian artist, and proves her involvement in this new style of painting. |
|||
Fede never married, she lived a happy life, and had a successful art career. In 1630 she died of the plague in Milan. |
|||
== Style == |
|||
[[Image:Stilllife by Fede Galizia.jpg|thumb|left|250px|''Peaches in a pierced white faience basket'' (1578-1630).]] |
|||
Fede Galizia painted portraits, miniatures and altarpieces, but the most important part of her oeuvre, for which she earned her place in art history, are her still lifes. However her paintings were not given the recognition they deserve until well into the 20th century, when special attention was given to her work in studies made in 1963 and 1989. It was only then when she was rescued from oblivion. |
|||
Fede Galizia shows a style related to the Lombard [[mannerism]] of the late 16th century, centered in [[Mantua]], but known internationally, especially in [[France]]. Fede’s still lifes are among the earliest examples of painting in a new genre in which women, partly because they were excluded from other kinds of painting, would excel. |
|||
Fede’s still lifes are extremely detailed and quite different from her father's works; she would use more details and vibrant colors. Most of these works featured fruit centerpieces. Her still lifes were usually front-facing, and the objects in it were proportional. They usually featured a basket or bowl filled with a single type of fruit, such as peaches or pears, with a few fruit, sometimes sliced, scattered at the base of the bowl. |
|||
Many of her still lifes had fresh flowers or other fruits set on the counter to provide a noticeable contrast and scale as seen in her work titled, ''Still-life with Peaches and a Porcelain and a Bowl''. Fede's work displayed influences from such works as [[Caravaggio]]'s ''Basket of Fruit''. Associating with the more restrained style of the Counter Reformation period, she did not explore the more lavish compositions and forms taken up by many of her contemporaries working in this genre; she preferred instead to use a stricter more simplistic style like that seen in [[Francisco de Zurbarán]]'s slightly later still life paintings. |
|||
Fede’s paintings were deft with detail, perfectly balanced, and her attention to shadow, light, and texture was unrivalled at the time. She was particularly good at creating inviting space in her paintings. Her compositions are not crowded. They look as if one could reach out and touch the fruit, grasp it, and pull it from the painting without disturbing the rest of the work. Her graceful, flowing arrangements were natural and poetic, unlike their contrived predecessors. |
|||
Fede Galizia aesthetic treatment of still lifes would not be seen again until the middle of the century. The modern direction taken in still life painting was shaped entirely by her works. Many of the still life paintings we see today draw their influence from her original ideas. Currently, it is unknown just how many paintings Fede was responsible for. Many works that could have possibly been hers have been attributed to her male counterpart [[Panfilo Nuvolone]], who drew significant inspiration from Fede. She may have inspired the Bergamese [[Francesco Codino]] and the [[Baroque]] still life painter, also a woman, [[Giovanna Garzoni]]. |

The '''University of Akureyri''' ('''Háskólinn á Akureyri''') is a young institution, founded on [[September 5]], [[1987]] in the city of [[Akureyri]] in the north part of [[Iceland]]. It has grown since then, especially in the last few years as more facilities have been established. 1,382 students attended the university in the autumn semester of 2007, around 450 of them doing so through [[distance education]], making the university the largest provider of distance education in the country. Also, the enrollment at the University of Akureyri makes up 9% of the entire university enrollment in Iceland. |
|||
==History== |
|||
In 1988, the library was officially added to the school. Two months after the library was added, the Student Center opened. The first class to graduate graduated in 1989, and consisted of 10 industrial management students. On January 4, 1990, the Faculty of Fisheries was established. The first master's degree students graduated February 26, 2000. These students pursued a master's degree in nursing. A new chancellor took over from Þorsteinn Gunnarsson in the 1.st of July 2009. His name is Stefán B. Sigurðsson. |
|||
==Faculties== |
|||
Since autumn 2006, the university has the following [[faculty (university)|faculties]]: |
|||
*Faculty of [[Law]] and [[Social Sciences]] (Félagsvísinda- og lagadeild)* |
|||
*Faculty of [[Health Sciences]] (Heilbrigðisdeild) |
|||
*Faculty of [[Education]] (Kennaradeild)* |
|||
*Faculty of [[Business]] and [[Natural Science]] (Viðskipta- og raunvísindadeild) |
|||
<nowiki>*</nowiki> On 1 August, 2008, the faculty of law and social science has been merged with the faculty of education to form a faculty of humanities and social sciences (Hug- og Félagsvísindadeild). However, in this merger will be in the semester 2008-9 only merg in the name. |
|||

|||
==Future Vison== |
|||
The University of Akureyri has five goals they would like to accomplish between 2007 and 2011. |
|||
===A Challenging and Personal Study Environment=== |
|||
The university would like for 70% of its students to graduate in 5 years. Also, the university plans to have 80% of the students satisfied with their education by 2011. |
|||
===Vigorous Research Activities=== |
|||
To accomplish this goal, the university plans to have, by 2011, 60% of its teachers will have a doctoral degree. It also plans to have 150 students involved in research-related postgraduate study. By 2011, the University of Akureyri plans to have 50% of its budget devoted to research. |
|||
===Activate Contacts With the Community=== |
|||
The university believes that a university should share its research with the community. They plan to take into account the knowledge needs of the community, and wish to provide a mutual share of research between the themselves and the community. |
|||
===International Cooperation and Recognition=== |
|||
By the end of 2011, the University of Akureyri plans to triple the number of international cooperative projects that it is involved in. Also, it plans to teach at least three postgraduate programs in English. |
|||
===An Official Organizational Unit=== |
|||
The university plans to increase its enrollment to 2000 students and to be more financially independent by the end of 2011. |
|||
==Research== |
|||
Most research is done by academic members of the staff in the university's Research and Development Center. In addition, there are four other research institutes: |
|||
*University of Akureyri Food Centre |
|||
*The Icelandic Tourism Research Centre |
|||
*The Institute of Health Science Research, University of Akureyri |
|||
*School Development Centre of UNAK's Faculty of Education |
|||
Staff members are encouraged to publish their research. Three books are out that are written by staff members. They are Andas Arfur (Educational Heritage), Lexia (Dyslexia), and Leitin Lifandi (Will to Know). |
|||
==Foreign Relations== |
|||
===International Students=== |
|||
Each year the school receives more exchange students. These students come through one of four exchange programs: |
|||
*Nordplus |
|||
*Erasmus |
|||
*North2North |
|||
*Bilateral agreement between universities |
|||
Students can come as guest students. This occurs when a student attends the university for a short period of time, but there is no formal co-operation between universities. Not only do students travel, but so do teachers. Through the Erasmus program, teachers have traveled to co-operating universities and given lectures. This exchange of teachers has taken place in many countries including: the United Kingdom, Denmark, Latvia, Germany, Italy, Sweden, Austria, Belgium, and France. |
|||
===Language=== |
|||
At the University of Akureyri the principal language of instruction is Icelandic. Textbooks are mainly in Icelandic and English. Most faculties offer some courses in English and some departments allow international students to take their examinations in English during the first semester of study. This is, however, always subject to the approval of each faculty and individual instructors. |
|||
The only major taught in English is a BSc of Computer Science and a new Masters degree in Polar Law. |

'''Matousec''' (short project's name, means part of its founder family name - '''Matou'''šec + part of "'''sec'''urity" word) is a [[personal firewall]] testing group, known also as '''Matousec Transparent Security'''. |
|||
== History == |
|||
It was founded in March 2006 by Czech [[IT security]] researcher David Matoušek with a small group of university students (mostly) to find vulnerabilities in Windows PC security software<ref>[http://securitytracker.com/alerts/2006/Aug/1016618.html first public vulnerability reports from David]</ref>. Nowadays the group's focus is on non-commercial public testing of [[personal firewall]] and [[Internet Security]] software. |
|||
Group's testing results are usually mentioned in reports "Comparative reviews of personal firewall software" <ref>see Firewall Guide http://www.firewallguide.com/software.htm#Comparative</ref>. |
|||
In April 2009 the group and project were acquired by unknown Internet and software-related company Difinex (Different Internet Experience) Ltd. under which it continues testing security software working under Microsoft Windows systems. |
|||
== Projects == |
|||
The most known project of Matousec is an independent security software testing challenge called Firewall Challenge<ref>http://www.matousec.com/projects/firewall-challenge/faq.php#administrators-limited-account</ref> (in 2009 - Proactive Security Challenge). The group is also know by the development of Security Software Testing Suite used for the tests mentioned above. |
|||
Matousec is often mentioned in IT security forums when talking about how secure a firewall-based software is.<ref>http://www.wilderssecurity.com/showthread.php?t=183431</ref><ref>http://forums.comodo.com/leak_testingattacksvulnerability_research/matousec_retest_comodo_does_not_pass_100-t22963.0.html</ref> or at [[personal firewall]] and [[Internet security]] software producer's sites news [[Comodo]](<ref>[http://www.comodo.com/news/press_releases/12_07_07.html see]</ref>, ([[Agnitum]]<ref>[http://www.agnitum.com/news/outpost-firewall-matousec.php see]</ref>, [[Kaspersky]]<ref>[http://www.kaspersky.com/comparative_tests?id=207575592 see]</ref>). Currently, more than 50 firewall-related products were tested by Matousec group. |
|||
Matousec tests an [[Internet Security]] suites' or [[personal firewall]]s' with [[HIPS]] engines ability to stop leaks, how well it protects itself from crashing, if it can stop spywares from spying<ref>http://www.matousec.com/projects/firewall-challenge/#methodology-rules</ref> and some other tests, the test used to include a [[performance test]], but that has been removed now. |
|||
All tests are performed on an administrator account on [[Windows XP]] with recent version of Internet Explorer<ref>[http://www.matousec.com/projects/firewall-challenge/faq.php#administrators-limited-account see]</ref> . |
|||
==Criticisms== |
|||
Matousec has received criticism from time to time for demanding more of a firewall than a firewall is supposed to be. A PC firewall should stop leaks, but some argue that it however must not protect against things such as [[Keystroke logging|key logging]].<ref>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r20905485-firewall-tests</ref> |
|||
Recently his firewall tests are again issue of discussion, many people have sincere doubts to Matousec and his tests.<ref>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r21928994-Matousec-has-posted-new-results</ref> |
|||
Some background info about Matousec is available on Smokey's Security Weblog.<ref>http://smokeys.wordpress.com/2008/04/20/matousecs-firewall-challenge-wrinkle-conflict-of-interests/</ref> |
|||
Matousec and his Firewall Challenges are also provided with the Smokey's Security Weblog Hall Of Shame Award 2008/2009.<ref>http://smokeys.wordpress.com/2008/11/30/matousec-and-his-firewall-challenges-hall-of-shame-2008-awardee/</ref> |

==Plot== |
|||
Anxious to go fishing, Spanky skips out of Sunday school, despite the admonitions of his pals Alfalfa, Mildred, Sidney, and Marianne that "Something's going to happen to you." Actually, everything happens to Spanky and his kid brother (Eugene "Porky" Lee) in the course of the morning. Chased out of a private estate by cantankerous caretaker, the two boys wander into a dark, mysterious woods --- just as an [[eclipse]] occurs and at the same time a large group of black worshippers are holding a mass baptism ceremony. (this baptism is stock footage and not actually filmed for this episode) Inevitably, the kids scare the worshippers, and vice versa, culminating in a hectic chase (accompanied by the strains of LeRoy Shield's "Fastie", a nervous agitato originally written for the 1935 Laurel and Hardy feature Bonnie Scotland).<ref name="NY Times">{{cite web |url=http://movies.nytimes.com/movie/29646/Little-Sinner/overview |title=New York Times: Little Sinner |accessdate=2008-09-20|work=NY Times}}</ref> |
|||
==Note== |
|||
"Little Sinner" was withdrawn from the "Little Rascals" TV package in 1971 due to its racial content. It was reinstated in 1979 with severely edited prints that exclude the eclipse and the baptism. The original version was reinstated for the 2001 to 2003 showings on [[AMC]]. The film was available in its entirety on home video from the 1980s to the late 1990s. As of October 28, 2008, it will be available in its entirety along with the other 79 Roach produced talking Our Gang episodes on DVD. This episode also marks the first appearance for Eugene/Gordon Lee as Porky. |

'''Henry Harry "Jersey" Flegg''' (6 April 1878 in [[Bolton, Lancashire]]{{ndash}} 23 August 1960 in [[North Sydney, New South Wales]]) was an English-Australian [[rugby league]] identity. Both a player and administrator, he was a leading figure in the birth of the sport in Australia. |
|||
Flegg emigrated to Australia at an early age. He received his nickname 'Jersey' while still at school, after a meeting with the [[New South Wales]] (NSW) [[Governor]] of the time, [[Victor Child Villiers, 7th Earl of Jersey|Lord Jersey]], who had bright red hair, similar to his own. |
|||
'Jersey' played [[rugby football]] for the Adelphi club and represented New South Wales in the sport before moving to the new rebel code in [[rugby league]]'s start up season – [[NSWRFL season 1908|1908]]. |
|||
'Jersey' played a leading role in the establishment of the [[Sydney Roosters|Eastern suburbs]] club, he chaired the founding meeting, was one of that clubs two delegates to the [[New South Wales Rugby Football League]] (NSWRFL) as well as being a club selector. A [[Rugby league positions#Prop forward|front row forward]] with a reputation as a solid defender, Flegg captained the side in its inaugural season, including the club's [[Eastern Suburbs 1908 Season#first match|first match]] and the NSWRFL's [[New South Wales Rugby Football League season 1908#Final|first premiership decider]] against neighbouring [[Sydney]] club and traditional rival, [[South Sydney Rabbitohs|South Sydney]]. Flegg was also selected in a Sydney based representative team during that first season. However, it is in administration that 'Jersey' is best remembered. |
|||
In 1909, Flegg was made a New South Wales and Australian selector and in 1929 he was appointed to the position of president of the NSWRFL. In 1941 he became chairman of the [[Australian Rugby League]] Board of Control. At the time of his death in 1960, aged 82, he was still serving in these roles. |
|||
A life member of the [[Australian Rugby League|Australian]], [[Rugby Football League|British]] and [[Fédération Française de Rugby à XIII|French]] Rugby Leagues, Flegg received further recognition when in 1961 the [[Jersey Flegg Cup|H. Jersey Flegg Cup]] was introduced. His contribution to rugby league extended over half a century and during his tenure at the head of the game's administration, rugby league prospered, cementing itself as the dominant football code throughout the Australian states of New South Wales and [[Queensland]]. |
|||
'Henry "Jersey" Flegg has been allocated Eastern Suburbs player Number 1. |

[[Image:Entrance to the royal canberra golf club.jpg|thumb|200px|Entrance to the RCGC]] |
|||
The '''Canberra Golf Club''', later known as the '''Royal Canberra Golf Club''', was formed in 1926. Its original grounds were behind the Hotel Canberra on the river flats on both sides of the [[Molonglo River]]. |
|||
The club's Club House was on a site near the [[Albert Hall, Canberra|Albert Hall]] and included the old brick [[fireplace]] and [[chimney]] of the nearby Kaye family's slab cottage. The Kaye family took over the lease of Klensendorlffe's stone villa in 1854 and in the early 1890s constructed a new slab home with the brick fireplace and chimney mentioned above. The site of this building, like the greens, is below the waters of [[Lake Burley Griffin]]. |
|||
Shortly before work commenced on the lake (early 1960s) the Royal Canberra Golf Club moved to its present site. |
|||
The history of Royal Canberra Golf Club, or its predecessors, is almost as long as the history of the national capital itself. |
|||
The foundation stone for the city was laid in 1913 and in that same year, a few golfing enthusiasts established a nine hole course on a site near to, what is now the city centre. Subsequently, in 1922, those stalwarts domiciled themselves on a new nine hole, sand green layout at Acton, sharing space with the Acton racecourse and leading to problem lies through omni-present hoof marks on the fairways. |
|||
Things took a turn for the better, however, when in 1926, the Federal Capital Commission constructed a new golf course on an adjacent site at Acton, where the Canberra Golf Club had its first real home. That Acton course was built on the banks of the Molonglo River and, with the river as a constant threat to wayward shots, soon earned a reputation as a superb and challenging test of golf. With minor changes only to the layout, but major changes to the clubhouse, it remained the home of Royal Canberra Golf Club until 1962, the "Royal" status having been granted by King George V in 1933. |
|||
The Walter Burley Griffin plan for Canberra called for the damming of the Molonglo River to form a lake and so it was that, in 1962, with its Acton site due to be submerged in that plan, the Club moved to its present site at Westbourne Woods. In the 40 years since that move the Royal Canberra Golf Club has developed into Australia's pre-eminent inland golf course. Venue for a number of major tournaments, both amateur and professional, over the years the Royal Canberra course regularly features in Australia's top 50, relying on its natural beauty, its marvellous variety of trees and challenging design to occupy a rating well above many newer, resort-style courses. |

The Belgian Cancer Registry Foundation is a Belgian institution which collects epidemiological data concerning new cancer cases in Belgium.
History
In 1983 a national cancer registry (Nationaal Kankerregister-NKR) was founded in Belgium. In Flanders the Flemish government sponsored from 1994 until 2005 the creation of a Flemish cancer registry by the Vlaamse Liga tegen Kanker. The Belgian Cancer Registry Foundation, a joint initiative of the national, Brussels, Flemish and Wallonian governments, was founded on 28 June 2005 and officially inaugurated on 17 May 2006 in the presence of the ministers Rudy Demotte, Catherine Fonck and Inge Vervotte. Article 39 of the Belgian law of 13 December 2006 describes in detail the organization of cancer registration in Belgium.

The Pappajohn Business Building houses the Tippie College of Business at the University of Iowa in Iowa City, Iowa. Completed in 1994, it is an 187,000-square-foot postmodern facility that houses the Pappajohn Entrepreneurial Center and Small Business Center.
The building embodies the style of the Pentacrest structures with its use of aggregate stone and is a modern twist on the turn-of-the century buildings found at the heart of campus. Its style is also reminiscent of financial institutions such as the New York Stock Exchange and its use of a "money-green" paint scheme reinforces its financial focus.
The building includes 27 classrooms varying in size from a 16-seat conference room to a 387-seat auditorium. Each classroom is equipped with technology including projectors and audio systems. The building also houses one of the largest information technology centers on campus. The open atrium spaces, study corners and outdoor patio provide places places for students to study or relax.
The Pappajohn Business Building is named after John Pappajohn, a Des Moines venture capitalist and UI alumnus. His $4 million contribution to the building fund was one of the largest the University had ever received. To commemorate his generosity, the University of Iowa bestowed his name upon the building. This was not the only funding provided for the $34 million building; in 1991 the Iowa General Assembly approved $24 million in state revenue bonds to help offset the cost of the building project.

Gives rise to | dermis |
Anatomical terminology |
The cutis plate is the dorsal portion of the paraxial mesoderm somite which gives rise to dermis.
It is also known as the "dermatome", but it should not be confused with the dermatomic area, which is also sometimes called a "dermotome". (The two concepts are related, but the cutis plate is an embryological structure, while the dermatomic area is present in the adult.)

Fulbrook is a village and civil parish immediately northeast of Burford in West Oxfordshire.
History
In 1086 the Domesday Book recorded the village as Fulebroc, possibly meaning "foul brook".[citation needed]
The Church of England parish church of Saint James is Norman.[1] The north aisle was added about 1200, linked with the nave by an arcade in the Transitional style between Norman and Early English Gothic.[1] In the 13th century the chancel was remodelled and the north transept were added, both in the Early English style.[1] The south porch was added later in the same century.[1] The east window of the chancel, the west window of the north aisle and one window in the south wall or the aisle are also 13th century.[1] Later a clerestorey was added to the nave and new Perpendicular Gothic windows were inserted in the south walls of the nave and chancel.[1] In the 15th century the bell tower was built into the west end of the nave.[2] The tower has a peal of six bells.[3]
Ladyham, a half-timbered house beside the River Windrush, was built in the 16th century and had a five-bay façade added in the Georgian period.[2] Westhall Hill Manor is 16th or 17th century, also with Georgian additions.[2]
Amenities
Fulbrook has two public houses: the Carpenters Arms[4] and the Masons Arms. The Carpenters Arms is now a gastropub.

Subsequently he was ordinary professor of philosophy at the University of Tübingen, and in 1873 professor of theology at the University of Giessen. From 1875 till his death he was professor of theology of the University of Heidelberg. In the course of his researches he made several journeys in the East.
Among his many works are:
- Grammatica syriaca (1867-1870)
- Vocabulary of the Tigre language (1868)
- Das Gedicht vom Hiob (1871)
- Die Prophetie des Joel und ihre Ausleger (1879)
- Die Saadjanische Übersetzung der Hohe Liedes ins Arabische (1882)
- Chrestomathia Targumica (1888)
- Historia artis grammaticae apud Syros (1889)
- Ein samaritanisches Fragment (1893)
- Idee und Grundlinien einer allgemeiner Geschichte der Mystik (1893)
- Die Bücher Moses und Josua; eine Einfuhrung fur Laien (1907)
- Der Messias oder Ta'eb der Samaritaner, nach bisher unbekannten Quellen (1909)
Merx devoted much of his later research to the elucidation of the Sinaitic Palimpsest discovered in 1892 by Mrs. Agnes Smith Lewis, the results (Die Evangelien des Markus und Lukas nach der Syrischen im Sinaikloster gefundenen Palimpsesthandschrift) being embodied in Die vier kanonischen Evangelien nach dem ältesten bekannten Texte (4 vols., 1897-1905). His last work was an edition of the books of Moses and Joshua.

The Condensed Milk Company of Ireland Limited was an Irish manufacturer of dairy products and, in its heyday, the largest of its kind in the United Kingdom. Its most famous product was Cleeve's Toffee, a popular confectionery which continued to be sold in Ireland until the 1980s.
Origins
The business was established in 1883[1] by Thomas Cleeve, a Canadian of English extraction. Cleeve first came to Ireland as a teenager to work for J. P. Evans & Co., a Limerick-based supplier of agricultural machinery owned by his uncle. Over the next 20 years Cleeve rose to become managing director of this company.[2]
Through his contacts with Irish farmers, Cleeve saw the potential to process milk and manufacture dairy products for home consumption and export. Together with Edmond Russell,a local businessman, and William Beauchamp, a solicitor, Cleeve acquired Lansdowne, a site on the northern bank of the River Shannon. There, the partners set up a factory to produce condensed milk and butter.[2]
Early Development
In 1889, the business was incorporated as a private limited company. Within ten years 60,000 tins of condensed milk were being produced daily at its Limerick headquarters, with 10,000 cows providing the raw material. As the business expanded, Thomas Cleeve was joined by his four younger brothers who moved from Canada to help manage the company. They set up or acquired a chain of smaller creameries and factories throughout Munster. Branches were established in London and Liverpool to facilitate sales into the British market.[2]
By the end of the nineteenth century the Condensed Milk Company had 2,000 employees on its payroll and counted 3,000 farmers as suppliers of its raw material. Its exports reached practically every corner of the British Empire. The company's brands included "The Cup", "The Calf", "The Goat", "The Shamrock", and "Cleeve's Full Cream Milk". A separate factory in Limerick manufactured Cleeve's Toffee.[2]
Following the death of chairman Sir Thomas Cleeve in 1908, his brother, Frederick, became managing director, with William Beauchamp assuming the position of chairman. Business grew significantly following the outbreak of World War I in 1914, and employee numbers rose to 3,000. The Condensed Milk Company became a major supplier to British forces fighting in Europe. It was alleged after the war that company profits reached £1m during this period.[2]
Industrial and Civil Strife
In 1917, the Irish Transport and General Workers' Union set up three branches in Limerick. Within a year the union had successfully recruited the Cleeve workforce as members. In 1919, the short-lived Limerick Soviet brought the company's headquarters at Lansdowne to a standstill. Even though normal business resumed at the factory, the stoppage was a turning point in the Cleeves' fortunes.[2] Over the course of the next three years, the company faced an unprecedented array of challenges which threatened the continued viability of the business.
Following the resumption of peace in Europe, the price of milk fell dramatically affecting company profits. On top of that, the War of Independence led to considerable damage being inflicted on many of the company's factories and creameries. Some of this damage was caused by Crown forces, despite the Cleeves being staunch Unionists. Other instances were seemingly the work of Irish Nationalists who saw the Condensed Milk Company as a symbol of British rule. The third challenge faced by the company lay in the radicalisation of sections of its workforce.
For instance, in May 1920 at Knocklong, County Limerick, the workers decided to escalate a pay dispute by taking over the company's creamery in the town. They hoisted a red flag over the premises and erected a banner across the entrance which read "Knocklong Soviet Creamery, we make butter not profits." The Cleeves conceded defeat after five days and granted retrospective wage increases to the workers. The success of the workers at Knocklong precipitated similar disputes at other Cleeve factories.[2]
By November 1923, the directors decided they could not continue and announced that the company was going into liquidation. Frederick Cleeve had stepped down as managing director several years earlier and was replaced by Sir Thomas Cleeve's son, Francis. The company was bought as a going concern by a syndicate of local businessmen led by Andrew O'Shaughnessy, a member of Dáil Éireann.[2] Francis Cleeve remained on as managing director for another year to facilitate the transition.
Decline
In 1927, the Free State government established a new semi-state body, the Dairy Disposal Company, to regularise and rationalise the industry. The new body took over the Condensed Milk Company, by far the largest producer in the country, as well as other smaller concerns. The company continued to operate under State control until the early 1970s. At that stage, the government decided to break up the Dairy Disposal Company and transfer ownership of the creameries to a number of farmer co-operatives.[2] In 1974, most of what remained of the Condensed Milk Company was sold to one of these, Golden Vale, subsequently a subsidiary of the Kerry Group.[3]
The current owners continue to process milk at the Lansdowne factory and its tall chimney remains as one of Limerick's most distinctive landmarks.
The final remnant of the original family business, Cleeve's Toffee, continued until 1985 when the company which had purchased the brand was liquidated.[4]

Fede Galizia (1578 - 1630) was an Italian Renaissance painter, a pioneer of the still life genre.
Life
Fede Gallizi, better known as Galizia, was born in Milan in 1578. Her father, Nunzio Galizia, also a painter of miniatures, had moved to Milan from Trento. Fede (whose name means "faith") learned to paint from him. By the age of twelve, she was sufficiently accomplished as an artist to be mentioned by Gian Paolo Lomazzo, a painter and art theorist friend of her father, who wrote, "[T]his girl dedicates herself to imitate our most extraordinary art."[1]
At a young age, Fede was already an established portrait painter handling many commissioned works. Perhaps it was her father's influence as a miniaturist that led to Fede's attention to detail in her portraits. Her treatment of jewels and clothing made her a very desirable portrait painter. She was often commissioned to paint religious and secular themes as well. Several of her paintings based on the deuterocanonical story of Judith and Holofernes, a popular theme in art of the period, survive in private collections. Perhaps her earliest was Judith and Her Handmaiden painted in 1596 which is now in Sarasota Florida at the Ringling Museum of Art. She also created miniatures and altarpieces for convents.
The style of her portraits derived from the naturalistic traditions of the Renaissance in Italy with a sharply realistic approach. Fede's artistic skills of drawing and painting are evident in her Portrait of Paolo Morigia, a Jesuit scholar and one of her earliest patrons and supporters. Morigia, also a writer and historian, was very pleased with Fede's work, and was portrayed in her 1596 Portrait of Paolo Morigia to be writing a poem about the picture Fede was painting. She received several public commissions for altarpieces in Milanese churches; one of these was the Noli me tangere (1616; Milan, S Stefano) she made for the altar of Saint Maria Maddalena Church.
When not painting portraits, Fede was primarily interested in painting still lifes, a genre in which she was a pioneer and for which she is best remembered. It is rumored that she spent a good portion of her life looking for something in Italy and Greece. She must have found something incredible because a 2 ton load of something was sent back to her summer home in Spain. Although very few contemporary sources mention Fede's still life paintings, they are the majority of her surviving works. Sixty-three works have been catalogued as hers, of which 44 are still lifes. One of her signed still lifes made in 1602 is said to be the first dated still life by an Italian artist, and proves her involvement in this new style of painting.
Fede never married, she lived a happy life, and had a successful art career. In 1630 she died of the plague in Milan.
Style
Fede Galizia painted portraits, miniatures and altarpieces, but the most important part of her oeuvre, for which she earned her place in art history, are her still lifes. However her paintings were not given the recognition they deserve until well into the 20th century, when special attention was given to her work in studies made in 1963 and 1989. It was only then when she was rescued from oblivion.
Fede Galizia shows a style related to the Lombard mannerism of the late 16th century, centered in Mantua, but known internationally, especially in France. Fede’s still lifes are among the earliest examples of painting in a new genre in which women, partly because they were excluded from other kinds of painting, would excel.
Fede’s still lifes are extremely detailed and quite different from her father's works; she would use more details and vibrant colors. Most of these works featured fruit centerpieces. Her still lifes were usually front-facing, and the objects in it were proportional. They usually featured a basket or bowl filled with a single type of fruit, such as peaches or pears, with a few fruit, sometimes sliced, scattered at the base of the bowl. Many of her still lifes had fresh flowers or other fruits set on the counter to provide a noticeable contrast and scale as seen in her work titled, Still-life with Peaches and a Porcelain and a Bowl. Fede's work displayed influences from such works as Caravaggio's Basket of Fruit. Associating with the more restrained style of the Counter Reformation period, she did not explore the more lavish compositions and forms taken up by many of her contemporaries working in this genre; she preferred instead to use a stricter more simplistic style like that seen in Francisco de Zurbarán's slightly later still life paintings.
Fede’s paintings were deft with detail, perfectly balanced, and her attention to shadow, light, and texture was unrivalled at the time. She was particularly good at creating inviting space in her paintings. Her compositions are not crowded. They look as if one could reach out and touch the fruit, grasp it, and pull it from the painting without disturbing the rest of the work. Her graceful, flowing arrangements were natural and poetic, unlike their contrived predecessors.
Fede Galizia aesthetic treatment of still lifes would not be seen again until the middle of the century. The modern direction taken in still life painting was shaped entirely by her works. Many of the still life paintings we see today draw their influence from her original ideas. Currently, it is unknown just how many paintings Fede was responsible for. Many works that could have possibly been hers have been attributed to her male counterpart Panfilo Nuvolone, who drew significant inspiration from Fede. She may have inspired the Bergamese Francesco Codino and the Baroque still life painter, also a woman, Giovanna Garzoni.

The University of Akureyri (Háskólinn á Akureyri) is a young institution, founded on September 5, 1987 in the city of Akureyri in the north part of Iceland. It has grown since then, especially in the last few years as more facilities have been established. 1,382 students attended the university in the autumn semester of 2007, around 450 of them doing so through distance education, making the university the largest provider of distance education in the country. Also, the enrollment at the University of Akureyri makes up 9% of the entire university enrollment in Iceland.
History
In 1988, the library was officially added to the school. Two months after the library was added, the Student Center opened. The first class to graduate graduated in 1989, and consisted of 10 industrial management students. On January 4, 1990, the Faculty of Fisheries was established. The first master's degree students graduated February 26, 2000. These students pursued a master's degree in nursing. A new chancellor took over from Þorsteinn Gunnarsson in the 1.st of July 2009. His name is Stefán B. Sigurðsson.
Faculties
Since autumn 2006, the university has the following faculties:
- Faculty of Law and Social Sciences (Félagsvísinda- og lagadeild)*
- Faculty of Health Sciences (Heilbrigðisdeild)
- Faculty of Education (Kennaradeild)*
- Faculty of Business and Natural Science (Viðskipta- og raunvísindadeild)
* On 1 August, 2008, the faculty of law and social science has been merged with the faculty of education to form a faculty of humanities and social sciences (Hug- og Félagsvísindadeild). However, in this merger will be in the semester 2008-9 only merg in the name.
Future Vison
The University of Akureyri has five goals they would like to accomplish between 2007 and 2011.
A Challenging and Personal Study Environment
The university would like for 70% of its students to graduate in 5 years. Also, the university plans to have 80% of the students satisfied with their education by 2011.
Vigorous Research Activities
To accomplish this goal, the university plans to have, by 2011, 60% of its teachers will have a doctoral degree. It also plans to have 150 students involved in research-related postgraduate study. By 2011, the University of Akureyri plans to have 50% of its budget devoted to research.
Activate Contacts With the Community
The university believes that a university should share its research with the community. They plan to take into account the knowledge needs of the community, and wish to provide a mutual share of research between the themselves and the community.
International Cooperation and Recognition
By the end of 2011, the University of Akureyri plans to triple the number of international cooperative projects that it is involved in. Also, it plans to teach at least three postgraduate programs in English.
An Official Organizational Unit
The university plans to increase its enrollment to 2000 students and to be more financially independent by the end of 2011.
Research
Most research is done by academic members of the staff in the university's Research and Development Center. In addition, there are four other research institutes:
- University of Akureyri Food Centre
- The Icelandic Tourism Research Centre
- The Institute of Health Science Research, University of Akureyri
- School Development Centre of UNAK's Faculty of Education
Staff members are encouraged to publish their research. Three books are out that are written by staff members. They are Andas Arfur (Educational Heritage), Lexia (Dyslexia), and Leitin Lifandi (Will to Know).
Foreign Relations
International Students
Each year the school receives more exchange students. These students come through one of four exchange programs:
- Nordplus
- Erasmus
- North2North
- Bilateral agreement between universities
Students can come as guest students. This occurs when a student attends the university for a short period of time, but there is no formal co-operation between universities. Not only do students travel, but so do teachers. Through the Erasmus program, teachers have traveled to co-operating universities and given lectures. This exchange of teachers has taken place in many countries including: the United Kingdom, Denmark, Latvia, Germany, Italy, Sweden, Austria, Belgium, and France.
Language
At the University of Akureyri the principal language of instruction is Icelandic. Textbooks are mainly in Icelandic and English. Most faculties offer some courses in English and some departments allow international students to take their examinations in English during the first semester of study. This is, however, always subject to the approval of each faculty and individual instructors. The only major taught in English is a BSc of Computer Science and a new Masters degree in Polar Law.

Matousec (short project's name, means part of its founder family name - Matoušec + part of "security" word) is a personal firewall testing group, known also as Matousec Transparent Security.
History
It was founded in March 2006 by Czech IT security researcher David Matoušek with a small group of university students (mostly) to find vulnerabilities in Windows PC security software[1]. Nowadays the group's focus is on non-commercial public testing of personal firewall and Internet Security software.
Group's testing results are usually mentioned in reports "Comparative reviews of personal firewall software" [2].
In April 2009 the group and project were acquired by unknown Internet and software-related company Difinex (Different Internet Experience) Ltd. under which it continues testing security software working under Microsoft Windows systems.
Projects
The most known project of Matousec is an independent security software testing challenge called Firewall Challenge[3] (in 2009 - Proactive Security Challenge). The group is also know by the development of Security Software Testing Suite used for the tests mentioned above.
Matousec is often mentioned in IT security forums when talking about how secure a firewall-based software is.[4][5] or at personal firewall and Internet security software producer's sites news Comodo([6], (Agnitum[7], Kaspersky[8]). Currently, more than 50 firewall-related products were tested by Matousec group.
Matousec tests an Internet Security suites' or personal firewalls' with HIPS engines ability to stop leaks, how well it protects itself from crashing, if it can stop spywares from spying[9] and some other tests, the test used to include a performance test, but that has been removed now.
All tests are performed on an administrator account on Windows XP with recent version of Internet Explorer[10] .
Criticisms
Matousec has received criticism from time to time for demanding more of a firewall than a firewall is supposed to be. A PC firewall should stop leaks, but some argue that it however must not protect against things such as key logging.[11]
Recently his firewall tests are again issue of discussion, many people have sincere doubts to Matousec and his tests.[12]
Some background info about Matousec is available on Smokey's Security Weblog.[13] Matousec and his Firewall Challenges are also provided with the Smokey's Security Weblog Hall Of Shame Award 2008/2009.[14]

Little Sinner is a 1935 Our Gang short comedy film directed by Gus Meins. It was the 139th Our Gang short to be released.
Plot
Anxious to go fishing, Spanky skips out of Sunday school, despite the admonitions of his pals Alfalfa, Mildred, Sidney, and Marianne that "Something's going to happen to you." Actually, everything happens to Spanky and his kid brother (Eugene "Porky" Lee) in the course of the morning. Chased out of a private estate by cantankerous caretaker, the two boys wander into a dark, mysterious woods --- just as an eclipse occurs and at the same time a large group of black worshippers are holding a mass baptism ceremony. (this baptism is stock footage and not actually filmed for this episode) Inevitably, the kids scare the worshippers, and vice versa, culminating in a hectic chase (accompanied by the strains of LeRoy Shield's "Fastie", a nervous agitato originally written for the 1935 Laurel and Hardy feature Bonnie Scotland).[1]
Note
"Little Sinner" was withdrawn from the "Little Rascals" TV package in 1971 due to its racial content. It was reinstated in 1979 with severely edited prints that exclude the eclipse and the baptism. The original version was reinstated for the 2001 to 2003 showings on AMC. The film was available in its entirety on home video from the 1980s to the late 1990s. As of October 28, 2008, it will be available in its entirety along with the other 79 Roach produced talking Our Gang episodes on DVD. This episode also marks the first appearance for Eugene/Gordon Lee as Porky.

Henry Harry "Jersey" Flegg (6 April 1878 in Bolton, Lancashire– 23 August 1960 in North Sydney, New South Wales) was an English-Australian rugby league identity. Both a player and administrator, he was a leading figure in the birth of the sport in Australia.
Flegg emigrated to Australia at an early age. He received his nickname 'Jersey' while still at school, after a meeting with the New South Wales (NSW) Governor of the time, Lord Jersey, who had bright red hair, similar to his own.
'Jersey' played rugby football for the Adelphi club and represented New South Wales in the sport before moving to the new rebel code in rugby league's start up season – 1908.
'Jersey' played a leading role in the establishment of the Eastern suburbs club, he chaired the founding meeting, was one of that clubs two delegates to the New South Wales Rugby Football League (NSWRFL) as well as being a club selector. A front row forward with a reputation as a solid defender, Flegg captained the side in its inaugural season, including the club's first match and the NSWRFL's first premiership decider against neighbouring Sydney club and traditional rival, South Sydney. Flegg was also selected in a Sydney based representative team during that first season. However, it is in administration that 'Jersey' is best remembered.
In 1909, Flegg was made a New South Wales and Australian selector and in 1929 he was appointed to the position of president of the NSWRFL. In 1941 he became chairman of the Australian Rugby League Board of Control. At the time of his death in 1960, aged 82, he was still serving in these roles.
A life member of the Australian, British and French Rugby Leagues, Flegg received further recognition when in 1961 the H. Jersey Flegg Cup was introduced. His contribution to rugby league extended over half a century and during his tenure at the head of the game's administration, rugby league prospered, cementing itself as the dominant football code throughout the Australian states of New South Wales and Queensland.
'Henry "Jersey" Flegg has been allocated Eastern Suburbs player Number 1.

The Canberra Golf Club, later known as the Royal Canberra Golf Club, was formed in 1926. Its original grounds were behind the Hotel Canberra on the river flats on both sides of the Molonglo River.
The club's Club House was on a site near the Albert Hall and included the old brick fireplace and chimney of the nearby Kaye family's slab cottage. The Kaye family took over the lease of Klensendorlffe's stone villa in 1854 and in the early 1890s constructed a new slab home with the brick fireplace and chimney mentioned above. The site of this building, like the greens, is below the waters of Lake Burley Griffin.
Shortly before work commenced on the lake (early 1960s) the Royal Canberra Golf Club moved to its present site.
The history of Royal Canberra Golf Club, or its predecessors, is almost as long as the history of the national capital itself.
The foundation stone for the city was laid in 1913 and in that same year, a few golfing enthusiasts established a nine hole course on a site near to, what is now the city centre. Subsequently, in 1922, those stalwarts domiciled themselves on a new nine hole, sand green layout at Acton, sharing space with the Acton racecourse and leading to problem lies through omni-present hoof marks on the fairways. Things took a turn for the better, however, when in 1926, the Federal Capital Commission constructed a new golf course on an adjacent site at Acton, where the Canberra Golf Club had its first real home. That Acton course was built on the banks of the Molonglo River and, with the river as a constant threat to wayward shots, soon earned a reputation as a superb and challenging test of golf. With minor changes only to the layout, but major changes to the clubhouse, it remained the home of Royal Canberra Golf Club until 1962, the "Royal" status having been granted by King George V in 1933. The Walter Burley Griffin plan for Canberra called for the damming of the Molonglo River to form a lake and so it was that, in 1962, with its Acton site due to be submerged in that plan, the Club moved to its present site at Westbourne Woods. In the 40 years since that move the Royal Canberra Golf Club has developed into Australia's pre-eminent inland golf course. Venue for a number of major tournaments, both amateur and professional, over the years the Royal Canberra course regularly features in Australia's top 50, relying on its natural beauty, its marvellous variety of trees and challenging design to occupy a rating well above many newer, resort-style courses.

Hallo! Welcome! My name is Jimmy Wales, and I was born in the wonderful city of Huntsville, Alabama. I founded Wikipedia in 2001. Since 2006, I have been Chair Emeritus of the Wikimedia Foundation, which I founded in 2003. In 2004, with Angela Beesley, I co-founded Wikia — a completely separate organization, unrelated to Wikipedia and the Wikimedia Foundation.

Contacting mePress inquiries: If your press inquiry is strictly about Wikipedia or another Wikimedia project, you can contact me directly by e-mail or you can call the Foundation office and speak to our communications person, Jay, at +1 415 839 6885. If your press inquiry is for my personal views on some general topic, contact my assistant, Lisa, at presswikia.com. She knows how to find me as quickly as possible. If your press inquiry is about Wikia (a for-profit company completely separate from Wikimedia/Wikipedia, extending the Wikipedia social model to become "the rest of the library"), also contact Lisa at presswikia.com. General Wikipedia questions: You will probably be satisfied by contacting the help desk. Remember, if you're with the press, please follow the instructions above. Complaints: The best thing to do if you have a complaint is to start with the help desk. Ask a short, friendly question, and fellow Wikipedians will be happy to help you. Contacting me directly with a complaint should be reserved for after you have exhausted all other remedies. If you have a complaint about article content, there are several avenues to pursue. The best and simplest way is to fix it. You can also open a discussion on the article's talk page regarding the issues which you want to address. Be sure that you are adding well-written text using legitimate information from credible, reliable sources. If your change gets reverted, continue the discussion on the article to get consensus. That is how Wikipedia works. Other inquiries of any kind can be sent by e-mail to jwaleswikia.com. (Press inquiries by e-mail are also welcome.) Statement of principlesAs we move forward with software and social changes, I think it is imperative that I state clearly and forcefully my views on openness and licensure. This page, like all Wikipedia pages, is a living dynamic document, which the community and I will update and clarify as legitimate questions arise. I should point out that these are my principles, such that I am the final judge of them. This does not mean that I will not listen to you, but it does mean that at some ultimate fundamental level, this is how Wikipedia will be run. (But have no fear, as you will see below.)
The original version of this statement of principles was first published on Wikipedia on 27 October 2001.

You may edit this page!Really, you can! Please feel free to do so. Just do it! Make an edit! Make several edits! Make dozens of edits! Make thousands of edits! After all, that's what Wikipedia is all about! (Just make sure the edits conform to Wikipedia:Policies and guidelines.) Now, you all know that this is my user page. I like to keep it a certain way, but the thing is, I trust you! Yes, I really do. I trust that you will add something here that makes me smile, that informs me, or that helps to inform others. If I have things in a certain format, I trust that you will respect that format. Actually, scratch that. Since this page is just so simple and plain, my ultimate dream is that some person who thinks it is fun would come along and make it look perfect, or close to perfect. See that link up here that says ''? Go for it. It's a "wiki world!" — Jimbo! N.B. Many Wikipedians have my user page on their watchlist and will edit mercilessly and summarily, or even remove altogether any bad faith alterations made. This is a wiki, after all. So if you are here to vandalize, why don't you turn around and become a productive editor? You can choose to vandalize, but if you do, you'll have to face the consequences. So you might as well become a good editor. After all, Wikipedia can always use many more productive editors. It is, of course, a work in progress! Comments or questions on how this page currently looks should be directed to my talk page.
