Ross (surname)

In the Celtic tongue, a ros was a promontory of land. The Norman Family "de Ros" were established in Ayrshire, on Scotland's west coast in the 12th Century. At this time it is believed that the first Earl of Ross allied himself and the clan to the great Irish royal house of Tara. The clan is also otherwise known, as Clan Anrais, from a 13th century chief - MacGilleAndreas, meaning son of a devotee of St Andrew.

There are many Rosses in the Moray-Aberdeen area of Scotland, while some in Ross-shire itself are actually descendants of Clan Rose, which is also pronounced Ross.

The Rosses were prominent in the affairs of Scotland in medieval times: they fought with distinction at Largs against the Norse and at Bannockburn against the English. Indeed the seal of the Earl of Ross is one of those Scottish nobleman affixed to the declaration of Arbroath.

The last Chief to hold the Earldom died in 1372 and it passed, via the MacDonalds of the Isles, to the Crown in 1476. In the Civil War the Ross clan was aligned with the royalist cause against Oliver Cromwell. However, with the imprisonment of the Chief in the Tower of London and the ultimate victory of the Parliamentarians many of the clan were transported to New England.

In the Jacobite risings of 1715 and 1745 the clan had little involvement although Malcolm of Pitcalnie did side with the Old Pretender.

The chef of the clan was restored at the start of the 20th century, when Miss Ross of Pitcalnie reintroduced the arms.

According to the recent decision by the Vietnam Prime Minister, a new airport namely Long Thanh International Airport will replace Tan Son Nhat airport as the country's leading international airport. The Master Plan for this new airport was approved in April 2006, according to which, the new airport will be built in Long Thanh county, Dong Nai province, about 50 km North-East Ho Chi Minh City and 70 km South-West petroleum city of Vung Tau, by the Highway 51A. The Pre-Feasibility Study for this project is under way. The Long Thanh International Airport will be constructed on an area of 5,000 ha. It will have four runways (4,000 km x 60 m) and is capable to receive all jumbojet (A380). The project is scheduled to start in 2007 and will be divided in two stages. Once the Stage 1 is completed, this aiport will have 2 parallel runways (4,000 km x 60 m) and a Terminal with the capacity of 20 million passengers per annum. This stage will be finished in 2010. The 2nd Stage is planned to be completed in 2015, then this airport will have 3 passenger terminals and a cargo terminal designed to receive 80 to 100 million passengers and 5 million metric tonnes of cargo per year. The total invested capital of this project is estimated $ 8 billion. Upon completion of Long Thanh International Airport, Tan Son Nhat Airport will serve domestic passengers only. With its geographical advantage: location in then heart of Greater Ho Chi Minh City with a population of 11 million people and with GDP accounting for one third of Vietnam's, nearby Vietnam's Mekong Delta with 23 million people, and in the center of ASEAN, Long Thanh International Airport is expected to be the leading airport in Indochina Peninsula, and one of the busiest airtransportation hubs in the South-East Asian Region.

Town in the southern Brazilian state of Rio grande Do Sul Located on the shores of the Jaguarao river bordering Uruguay. Started out as a small military settlement about 108 years ago. The military settlement had the function to prevent invasions from Uruguay. The number of soldiers which defended Brazil was alot more reduced then the number of the soldiers of the enemy country. So it is why the town is also called herotown.

Davy5000

If your request was declined and you want to make changes and try again, copy and paste your article into a new submission and make your changes there.


Davy5000 is a hybrid of both fictional and nonfiction character in a series of simple web animations at Trackdave.net. He is based on a real person who was caught impersonating as a homeless man. As proof of his identity he has a xanga site that bears his name, recent pictures of him and age. His old xanga site was shut down due to early publicity. Trackdave.net claims that they were film students making a film documentary about homeless people until they saw Davy5000. That is how they claimed to have captured him on film and was exposed to the media. He was shown in a video clip where he was completely exposed by revealing his fake beard and wig. Davy5000 got his name through his old xanga site. In the animation Davy5000 plays a character that never opens his eyes due to sleepiness. The admin of Trackdave.net is very vague about his true identity whether if Davy5000 is an actor who acts as a con man doing his con or he is a real panhandler. The admin of trackdave.net still remains a mystery.

Castle Hills little city within the bigger city of San Antonio Texas USA

This request for creation has been reviewed. The result is below.
If your request was declined and you want to make changes and try again, copy and paste your article into a new submission and make your changes there.


Separate admisitrative division within the city of San Antonio. Collects tax for services and agencies within its bounds. These are not easily determined and like the rest of San Antonio's little fiefdoms, its financial doings are not easily discovered either.

It owns parts of US 410 Loop around the city and derives a large ammount of funds from 'speed entrapment' of unwary motorists.

Its commercial center is ignored by most San Antonians, so this fiefdom is not rich like Alamo Heights.

Its bible belt community verges on the puritanical in outlook and behavior. You'll likely see Jehova Witness and other loony sects on its streets as well as the odd 'Hispanic' anti Catholic Orange Order member. It does not advertise its anti-semitic leanings for obvious reasons, nonetheless it has a nasty undercurrent of severe bigoted anti-jewish residents.

Honda VF500F Interceptor

The Honda VF500F "Interceptor" is a 0.5L displacement sport motorcycle manufactured from 1984 to 1986. It was part of the Honda's family of 1st generation V4 engine motorcycles (Interceptor - VF400F VF500F VF700F VF750F VF1000F). The VF500F was derived from the Japanese market VF400F (0.4L engine). The basic engine was bored and stroked to 0.5L. The VF500F was made for the North Marican and European market. The European market also had a Vf500F2 model which utilized a full fairing, whereas the VF500F had a upper half fairing with a lower cowl in front of the motor.

The VF500F utilized a skeleton square tubular frame with front female slider forks and a rear mono-spring/damper suspension. It used a 16" front wheel with a 100/90-16 tire for reduced rotational inertia to make sterring easier. The rear wheel is a 18" with a 110/90-18 tire.

It was replaced by the CBR600F Hurricane motorcycle in 1987.

Creatine-Alpha-Ketoglutarate is alpha-ketoglutartae (AKG) added to a molecule of creatine to aid in absorption and uptake. Creatine-AKG is creatine bonded to a molecule of AKG, a precursor of glutamine, an essential amino acid required for muscle growth. AKG is absorbed by the intestines, which eliminates the possibility of gastrointestinal problems associated with other forms of creatine, such as creatine monohydrate. It also does not need the help of a creatine transporter to enter cells, but it taken directly into muscle cells. After the creatine is taken in, the remaining AKG is used as energy for the muscles by being converted into creatine phosphate.

Radosda

The village radosda is found in the municipality of struga, Macedonia. The village has a population of about 1000 inhabitants. The village is located next Lake Ohrid and is a very popular tourist destination. This is because some of the best beaches of the lake are within close proximity to the village. The village also offers good mountaineering in the nearby kjafasan mountains (which is home to many bears and other animals). The village is inhabitated by ethnic Macedonians which comprise 100% of the population and belong to the Macedonian Orthodox Church. The village is one of the most religous in the Republic, home to eight churches. The nearby village of Mali Vlaj is also a historic village, located in the mountains directy above Radosda. Here approximately 100 ethnic Macedonians live but in recent years this number has began to drop.

I'm not sure I'd agree with that, but I'd say that this article doesn't give nearly enough information to establish notability (or reader interest, for that matter). How widely is this compound used? Is it used by particular types of athletes? Is its use accepted, or is it banned in some countries/by some sports federations/etc.? Kickaha Ota 18:27, 7 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

T3chn0ph0b1a is a five member band born under the dark and synthetic arcades of Turin, Italy in 2003. Their roots crawl upon many musical genres, from Metal sounds to futuristic and violent Ebm: the first weapon of mass destruction was in their hands when they self-produced “Albedo Level: 0%”, a 4 tracks long killer mix of industrial decadence, deep space sounds and corroding hellectrowaves feasting under a grey velcro sky, among acid smokes and toxic clouds: morbid and screaming vocals meets lasergun massacre guitars and cold martial beats, adding lyrics concerning rusty landscapes, xenothropic invasions in sci-fi and horror movies style, future destruction and the Mind Body Problem, orchestrated in the key of fear. Then, the new era is coming.

Tricreatine Orotate

Tricreatine Orotate is a molecule of creatine bonded to orotic acid, a precursor of the nucleic acids that are used for DNA construction that increases the amount of carnosine in muscle cells. By increasing the level of carnosine found in the muscle, this buffers the acidity levels produced in the muscle cells during strenuous activity. Orotic acid also enhances the formation of creatine phosphate, a source of energy converted to adenosine triphosphate (ATP) while the muscle is resting, as well as supporting muscle-protein synthesis.

Vrankovina denotes an idea or a work by Ing. Arch. Anton Vranka. The term was established by his students and derives from the Slovak word "volovina" - which means "nonsense". Due the extensive usage in context with the artworks by Ing. Arch. Anton Vranka, it has got more and more a methaphoric meaning and describes an idea or a work which amazes by its complexity and esthetic impact.

Anarchism in South America

Indigenous Civilisation to the Beginning of Capitalism

South America has proud, if not particularly long, Anarchist tradition. Unlike most other indigenous civilisations, whose structure tended to be loosely Anarchic, the Aztec and Inca Empires were rigidly heirarchical and authoritarian. The new Empires of Spain and Portugal, however, were just as rigidly structured and based almost entirely around a feudal system of racism and ruthless exploitation. This tradition of injustice and inequality continued right into South America's Industrial Revolution, fuelling class hatred, rebellion and the newfound fire of Anarchy.

The New Origins and Growth of Class War

The growth of Anarchism in South America owes a lot to the influx of immigrant labourers from Spain and Italy, who brought the Radical ideas of Anarchism, Socialism and Insurrection with them. These immigrants also helped spread the growth of Capitalism in South America as they were a cheap source of Industrial Labour. But it's a common truth that as Capitalism grows, inequality grows, and as inequality grows, anger grows. In 1872 this anger found an outlet in Revolutionary Anarcho-Syndicalism and the first South American Section of the International Workingmen's Association was formed along with the celebrated Anarchist paper La Protesta. But with the demise of the First International in the 1880's it became clear that a new Anarcho-Syndicalist Labour Union had to be created to combat injustice and inequality through strikes in the short term and Social Revolution in the long term. So, in 1901, the Federacion Obrera Regional Argentina (FORA) was created and not long after that the Uruguayan Workers Regional Federation and Brazilian Conference of Labour were set up too.

The Explosion

After FORA was formed, Argentina erupted into a long and glorious Class War. In one year alone, twelve general strikes were declared and a state of emergency declared five times. The cycle of strikes, violence and repression carried on well into the decade, culminating on May Day 1909 in Buenos Aires when an Anarchist procession was shot at, without warning and without mercy, by the protectors of injustice, tne Police. In rightful vengeance, the young Anarchist Hero Simon Radowitsky shot the Fascist Chief of Police. The cycle continued with more violence, strikes, bombings and repressions than ever in Uruguay and Brazil as well as Argentina. The cycle reached it's bloody peak in the Tragic Week of 1919 when over a thousand striking Anarchist workers were brutally murdered and fifty-five thousand imprisoned by the bastion of oppression, the Police. In the meantime, the worker comrades of Brazil and Uruguay were also facing extreme repression from the State after their many strikes had been savagely broken.

The Decline

The apparent "success" of the Bolshevik Revolution split the Workers Movement in Argentina and Brazil and the rise of the South American Military Dictatorships forced the Anarchists to go underground. In Uruguay the introduction of a Welfare State and greater democracy led to a general decline of Radicalism. In Peru, after a brief high point in 1918 where a strike for an 8 hour day almost led to insurrection, the Anarcho-Syndicalist Movement declined there as well. In fact, everywhere in South America, the Class War became non-existent.

New Hope

In 2001, the Argentine Government stupidly decided to "liberalize" the economy-that is, hand over important services like hospitals and trains to a few greedy capitalists who care only about profits and nothing about people, turning thousands of workers out onto the streets creating unemployment and misery for the working man the only person who actually produces anything. In protest against these crazy economics, riots engulfed Buenos Aires. A state of emergency was declared and the capitalist government was forced to flee. For a while, pure, glorious Anarchy reigned in the Capital. The workers kicked their bosses out and the factories and other workplaces were collectivized. Anarchism and new libertarian communist philosophies, like Horizontalism were implemented by the workers in the workplace. To this day, despite the forces aligned against all progress and equality, this glorious state of affairs still lasts in Argentina. May it Live Forever! Viva Anarchy!

KLDT-TV

This request for creation has been reviewed. The result is below.


KLDT-TV channel 55 is an independent television station in Lake Dallas, TX serving the Dallas/Ft. Worth market. KLDT is owned and operated by Johnson Broadcasting.

KLDT started its broadcasting activities in 1991 as an America's Collectibles Network (now Jewelery TV) affiliate, competing against KHSX channel 49 (now KSTR-TV [TeleFutura Affiliate]). Then in 1998, KLDT switched its format to become an independent station to broadcast syndicated classic programming, a few movies, college sports from ESPN Plus and Houston Astros Baseball games simulcasted from sister station KNWS-TV (channel 51) in Houston, not to mention Lone Star Park Horeseracing.

Unfortunately in mid-2000, KLDT has dropped most of the programs and some of the time slots had to be filled with Paid Programming, but has maintained sports programming. Then in 2000, most of the college sports and the Lone Star Park Horse racing has moved to former Telemundo Affiliate KFWD-TV (channel 52). In 2005, KLDT has become a temporary home for the FC Dallas soccer team, but like all the sports programs, it also has moved to KFWD-TV.

To this day, KLDT is airing "Bloopy's Buddies", various Paid Programs, and religious programming.

International Mountain Bicycling Association

The International Mountain Bicycling Association (IMBA)[http:www.imba.com] is a non-profit educational association whose mission is to create, enhance and preserve trail opportunities for mountain bikers worldwide.

IMBA was formed in 1988, when five California-based mountain bike clubs created an alliance to fight widespread trail closures. The founding clubs were the Concerned Off Road Bicyclists Association, Bicycle Trails Council East Bay, Bicycle Trails Council Marin, Sacramento Rough Riders and Responsible Organized Mountain Pedalers. Gibson Anderson, of Sacramento, was elected IMBA's first executive director.

In 1993 IMBA hired Tim Blumenthal, a former IMBA board member and cycling journalist, as its executive director. When Blumenthal began, the organization had roughly 1,200 individual members and about 60 affiliated clubs. The headquarters moved to Boulder, Colorado, in 1994.

In the late 1990's, IMBA's membership grew in Canada, Europe and Australia. An international summit was held in Switzerland in 1997. Educational outreach programs such as the Trail Care Crews — traveling trailbuilding schools sponsored by Subaru car corporation — helped expand IMBA's reach. At the end of 1999, IMBA had more than 28,000 individual members, 14 staffers and a budget of $1.2 million.

In 2006, IMBA's membership grew to 32,000 members, with more than 600 affiliated clubs and patrols. International programs, including IMBA Canada, are contnuing to grow. In the US, IMBA has established partnership agreements with federal land management agencies, and is widely recognized as a leading source of information for trail-based recreation.

RPGGateway

RPGGateway, part of the RPGNexxus site network, is a human-edited global niche directory, specializing in role playing games and related content. The purpose of RPGGateway is to provide a single resource listing all RPG and RPG-related sites for gamers. Its focus is on pen-and-paper RPGs.

History

RPGGateway was founded in 1996 by James Mathe of the RPG Host network, and subsequently taken over by Effie Rover of the RPGNexxus site network in 1999. Since then, it has grown to around 5,000 sites. It has never changed its basic format - that of a categorized directory of site listings.

In the early 2000's, the site added 'Official' designations to differentiate fan sites from designated official sites, and a Top 100 list tied to incoming votes, outgoing links and user ratings. A web forum followed, offering advice for RPG webmasters on site improvements.

Editors

RPGGateway relies on a staff of volunteer editors who may change from time to time. However, a core group of editors (called Senior Editors on the site) have remained since the 1990's.

  • Loy Ellen Gross (Effie Rover)
  • Leslie Holm (Eisel) - Literature, Free Form and media based gaming
  • Diann (Soraya) - Pern, Play by Email
  • Aaron McClellan (Remmy) - Play by Post
  • Leefe Hicks (AusRPGer) - Conventions, Faires and Gaming Groups
  • Brent Knorr (ob1knorrb) - ICE Games
  • Olan Suddeth (t_catt11) - Dungeons and Dragons

Niche Web Directories

Web directories are an important component to search engine positioning. Directories come in all shapes and sizes, some are generic, while others are highly specialized. Directories, are defined as categorized topics or collections of information organized into a tree like structure where categories are used to define each groups association.

Being listed in a niche directory not only brings in targeted traffic, it provides a one-way link from a web site with similar content. Directories are generally highly ranked in search engines, and are considered well respected resources, two traits that are desirable in link partners.

While smaller directories that focus on a specific niche market might generate less traffic, the quality of the traffic from a niche site is usually highly targeted and will be superior to that generated from general search engines

Doug Williams (Figure Skater)

Over a period of almost fifteen years, 1990 World Team Member, Doug Williams, laughs that he “had my share of partners. My first partner was Lori Koshi. She and I were Pacific Coast Novice Pair Champions in 1981. That was back in the day when Novice Pairs were not included at Nationals. We competed Junior Pairs in ’82 & 83. In 1984, I skated Junior Pairs with Kelly Burtnett. That was a short stint that just didn’t work out. The best thing that happened during that time was having the opportunity to work with Mark Militano. He has a lot to offer and I loved my lessons with him. 1985 & 86, Senior Pairs was with Kristin Kriwanek. 1987 – 1991 with Sharon Carz. 1992-94 with Tracey Damigella.”

Doug had a hard time picking a favorite competition memory but admitted, “If I had to choose, it would be the Long Program at 1990 Worlds in Halifax. Sharon and I skated a perfect program. It was a thrill to go out at Worlds and skate a perfect program. I still remember watching Sharon come down from a huge throw Double Axel and being amazed that she was able to land it. My other favorite competition memory is my first International event. Kristin and I went to France for Criterium du Sucre. I still remember everything about that event. It was a great experience with a team of Scott Kurtilla, Christopher Bowman, Debbie Walls, Leif Erickson & Karen Kniriem.”

“As a person who has remained very active in the world of Figure Skating, there are many titles that I have held and which I am very proud of. I started working at my judging career in 1986. In 1994, when I just had no desire to compete any longer, I was a Senior Competition level judge and ready to start working at becoming a National and International judge. I was very involved in my career and enjoyed it thoroughly. I made no effort to skate professionally until I got a phone call from Scott Williams asking if I would like to audition for the Torvill and Dean 'FACE the MUSIC’ tour. I thought I would give it shot. It all fell into place and I spent the next two years touring with Torvill and Dean. It was one of the best times of my life. I wouldn’t trade it for anything. My professional career, though short-lived, was more than I ever dreamed of."

"I am currently President of All Year Figure Skating Club. That is a position I have held a few times. I was President of the 2002 U.S. Figure Skating Championships which were hosted by All Year FSC in Los Angeles. I have been Chief Referee of many figure skating events, including the 2003 U.S. Junior Championships in Scottsdale, AZ. I was an athlete member of the US Figure Skatings Executive Committee. I am a National and International judge and a National Referee.”

“Because I was very fortunate to have many wonderful people around me during my competitive years, I feel very committed to being there and helping today’s competitor as much as possible. Whether it be as a friend, club president, judge, referee or just as a fellow skater, I strive to give back the joy I have for skating to those who are learning and competing today and tomorrow.”

“Skating, by far, has been a huge asset to my life. The determination and drive associated with setting goals has been a part of my life always. The work I do is very project driven. I work in the Film and Television Industry. I am able to set timelines and goals and achieve those items and complete projects as required. I have also found that my employers have been impressed by my skating accomplishments as well as appreciating the focus that a driven competitor brings to the work place."

Zachary "Ed" Phillips

Zachary "Ed" Phillips was born on October 12,1913 at Longview,Texas. In school he learned few things and recieved his nickname "Ed".  When he reached high school he droped out and joined the band called "The Bacon Project" they became well known in their little town but didn't get a record deal. Mad at the fact, he moved to England and went on a killing spree. When the cops finally caught him he confessed that he was insane,but the cops didn't believe him. So "Ed" shot all the cops he could then went to jail. Finally when he arrived in jail, he meet a stranger named Adolf Hitler!

Adolf went to jail to bail Ed because he thought Ed was worthy to be a 1st-class Nazi officer in the upcoming Nazi rising and Holocaust. Being 20 at this time he took the opportunity up quick and looked forward to suck a high position. A year during his usually job of taking the jews to the Nazi contentration camps he began to relize his bad actions after being told over and over how evil he was and seeing people die. He soon found a bible and began reading it on his few spare minutes, secretly. He later decided to find a way to quit his horrible job. On April 8,1934, he got his only gun ready for action as he planed to run for his life. Lucky as he was still a head officer all he had to do was watch over his lower officers to make sure they were placing the jews in the right place. That night told all the lower officers to take a rest and that he would take care of everything for the night. During the night he snuck around the camp tellin all the jews that they by free by tomorrow if they followed his orders. Scared the jews thought the orders would be deadly but Officer Zach showed the jews his bible. The jews intently listened after that and so ed began explaining the plan. Ed began re-loading all the jews into the train cars to take to freedom


I learned this from my friend that read it in "The Other Officers" by Tyler Peirce
