Grant Stoelwinder

Template:Afc a


Grant Stoelwinder is Head Coach of the West Coast Swimming Club in Western Australia, working out of Challenge Stadium in Claremont Perth since 1997. His own career as a successful swimmer and National Gold Medalist and later as a coach working under Lyn Mackenzie, a former Olympic swimmer herself, has given Grant the experience and skill to provide a carefully structured program to enable his swimmers for success.

Grant's team has had considerable success in Australian swimming with many representatives on State and National teams, as well as four swimmers at the Athens Olympics in 2004. This success has lead to Grant being named WA Coach of the Year every year since 2004 and with his head coach, Mel Tantrum he reached the first place club point score at the Australian Age Swimming Championships in 2007.

Grant is also coach for the current World's Fastest 50m swimmer, Eamon Sullivan. With Grant's guidance and his specific high intensity program for sprints, Eamon has increased his success in the pool over the last year. At the 2008 Australian Swimming Championships held at the Australian Olympic Park Aquatic Centre, Eamon broke the long standing record of Alexander Popov for this swim twice, with a final time of 21.28 seconds. According to Grant, this was a 'perfect swim'. Eamon attributes his faster swim to a 'few words' from Grant.

Grant joined the procession of handshaking with the swimming luminaries during the highlights of Australian Olympic 2008 Beijing Swim Team on the final night of these selection trials with the team successfuls.

Abraham Arnold

Template:Afc a


Template:Tlx

Abraham Kerns Arnold (March 24, 1837November 3, 1901) was a US Cavalry officer during the American Civil War and, while a captain in the 5th U.S. Cavalry, was awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor for leading a "a gallant charge against a superior force of the enemy, extricated his command from a perilous position in which it had been ordered" against Confederate forces at Davenport Bridge, Virginia on May 10, 1864.

He is the father of Colonel Percy Weir Arnold, a cavalry officer serving during the Spanish-American War, the Philippine Insurrection and the First World War.

Biography

Born in Bedford, Pennsylvania, he entered West Point and graduated from the academy in 1859 as a brevet second lieutenant in the 2nd U.S. Cavalry. Participating in campaigns against the Commanche while stationed in Fort Inge, Arnold held a distinguished service record during the American Civil War. Promoted to first lieutenant in 1861, he was cited "for gallant and meritorious services" and brevetted captain at Gaines' Mill, major at Todd's Tavern and, most notably, during the Battle of Davenport Bridge being awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor for his actions.

In 1869, he became a full major as commander the 6th U.S. Cavalry and, by early-1879, he was directing operations against the Apaches in southeastern Arizona accompanying an expedition into Mexico later that year in pursuit of renegade Apaches to Lake Guzman. As acting assistant adjutant general to General Willcox, Arnold would also take part in the Battle of Cibecue on August 30, 1881. As a lieutenant colonel in 1886, he would also fight in the expedition against the Crows of the North Plains the following year. He would hold a number of command posts with various cavalry units during the next twelve years.

During the Spanish-American War, he accepted a field commission as brigadier general of volunteers and led 2nd U.S. Division of the 7th Army Corps in Cuba from January 16, 1898 until April 1, 1899. He retired on March 25, 1901. He died several months later in Cold Spring-On-Hudson, New York on November 23, 1901.

Alfred E. Perlman

Template:Afc a


Family

Alfred Edward Perlman was born November 22, 1902, in St. Paul, Minnesota, the son of Louis and Leah Perlman. He married Adele Sylvia Emrich, June 15, 1937. Together they had three children: Michael Louis; Lee Alfred; Constance.

Education

Perlman graduated from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology with a Bachelor of Science in civil engineering in 1923. He graduated from the Harvard Business School with a Masters degree in railway transportation in 1931. He was awarded honorary degress from Clarkson University and Depauw University.

Career

Perlman joined the Northern Pacific Railway in field construction in 1923. Over the next nine years he served as a track laborer, draftsman, roadmaster, and finally assistant to the vice-president.

In 1934 he joined the Reconstruction Finance Corporation as a consultant.

He joined the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy Railroad as an assistant engineer in 1935, helping reconstruct Midwestern lines hit by heavy flooding.

In 1936 he joined the Denver and Rio Grande Western Railroad as engineer in charge of maintenance-of-way work; in 1941 he was promoted to become chief engineer of the Rio Grande. From 1947 to 1952 Perlman was general manager of the Rio Grande, and from 1952 to 1954, executive vice-president.

In 1954 Perlman was appointed president of the New York Central Railroad in the wake of the suicide of Robert R. Young. For the next fourteen years Perlman worked to strengthen and improve the Central in the face of ever increasing automobile, truck, and airline competition.

Within six years Perlman succeeded in reducing the Central's long-term debt by nearly $100 million; reduced its passenger service deficit from $42 to $24.8 million; and by 1959 had increased earnings to $1.29 per share, double that of 1958. Included in Perlman's efforts was the famous Jet Train of 1966, when a Budd Rail Diesel Car numbered M-497 was mated to a General Electric jet engine. Running in Ohio, it set a speed record of 183.85 miles per hour.

Perlman pushed for modernization of the Central's physical plant, which included paring down main line routes to single track with centralized traffic control, and the construction of modern freight facilities. On of the largest projects was at Selkirk Yard outside of Albany, New York. Billed as a twenty million dollar project circa 1966, the yard was rebuilt and automated, increasing capacity to handle 8,329 cars a day from 2,300. When the project was completed in 1968, the New York Central had spent $29 million, including $4 million for a diesel locomotive service facility. When opened, the rebuilt terminal was named for Alfred E. Perlman Yard.

Beginning February 1, 1968, Perlman was president, director, and chief administrative office of the Penn Central Transportation, the ill-fated merger of the New York Central with the Pennsylvania Railroad. Penn Central operated a system with 40,000 miles of track in fourteen states and two Canadian provinces. It had total assets of $6.3 billion and annual revenues of nearly $2 billion. Yet, within two years of merger, competition and a bungled integration of the merged companies resulted in the largest corporate bankruptcy in American history to that time.

Perlman, along with Stuart T. Saunders (1909-1987) and David C. Bevan, both from the Pennsylvania Railroad, were dismissed from the Penn Central on June 8, 1970. Saunders, an attorney, returned to private practice, having held onto his stock and suffered a personal loss of $700,000 (in 1970 dollars). Bevan was tried and acquitted for embezzling $4 million in Penn Central funds.

In the wake of the Penn Central debacle, however, Perlman was hired to revitalize the Western Pacific Railroad. He served as the western road's president from December 1, 1970 to January 1, 1973, and chairman from 1970 to 1978. He retired and the Western Pacific was sold to a private investment group in that year. It was merged into the Union Pacific Railroad in 1982.

Perlman died April 30, 1983 in San Francisco, California. He is remembered as one of Trains magazine's ten most prominent railroad presidents of the Twentieth century.

Other

In 1949 Perlman served as a consultant to the Korean National Railways. In 1950 Perlman served as a consultant to the Israeli State Railways. Perlman was a member of the Transporation Association of America; American Museum of Immigration; Denver University; Elmira College; Bay Area Council; Newcomen Society.

John M. Budd

Template:Afc r


Family

John Marston Budd was born November 2, 1907, in Des Moines, Iowa. He was the son of Ralph Budd and Georianna Marshall Budd. He married Frances Bullard, January 31, 1931. They had two children: John M. Budd, Jr., and William B. Budd.

Education

Budd graduated from Yale University with a Bachelor's of Science in Civil Engineering in 1930.

Career

Budd joined the Great Northern Railway on his summers away from Yale in 1925 and 1926. Following graduation, he joined the Great Northern as assistant to the electrical engineer, a position he held from 1930 to 1932.

In 1933 he was appointed assistant trainmaster at [[Willmar, Minnesota]. From 1933 to 1940 he was assistant trainmaster and then trainmaster at Sioux City, South Dakota, Wenatchee, Washington, and Spokane, Washington.

From 1940 to 1942 he served as division superintendent at Klamath Falls, Oregon, then Whitefish, Montana.

From November, 1945, to May, 1947, Budd was assistant general manager for Lines East of Williston, North Dakota, on the Great Northern. In June, 1947, he joined the Chicago and Eastern Illinois Railroad as its president, a position he held until May, 1949. In this capacity he was the youngest president of any U.S. Class I railroad.

He returned to the Great Northern in May, 1949, following the death of Thomas F. Dixon to become the Great Northern's vice-president in charge of operations. He held this position until May, 1951, when he was named president, succeeding Francis J. Gavin who had been in office since 1939. John Budd's father, Ralph Budd, another civil engineer, was president of the Great Northern from 1919 to 1930, and president of the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy Railroad, a company half-owned by the Great Northern in cooperation with the Northern Pacific Railway, from 1930 until his retirement in 1949.

In 1955, Budd entered discussions with Robert Stetson Macfarlane, president of the Northern Pacific, about merger of the Great Northern, Northern Pacific, and the Burlington.

Project: Failing Flesh

Template:Afc r


Project: Failing Flesh is a three man extreme metal band formed in early 2002 by Eric Forrest (vocals), Tim Gutierrez (instruments), and Kevin 131 (instruments). Forrest is best known for his membership with sci-fi thrashers Voivod. Handling vocal and bass duties on the albums ‘Negatron’ (1995), ‘Phobos’ (1997), ‘Kronic’ (1998), and ‘Voivod Lives’ (2000). To date Project: Failing Flesh has functioned as a studio entity only as its members are based on different continents with Forrest residing in Toulouse, France while Gutierrez and Kevin 131 are based in Virginia, USA. Two albums, both recorded at the bands own Assembly Line Studios in Vienna, Virginia, have thus far been released. The sound could loosely be described as a much varied combination of thrash, death, and industrial metal with experimental elements throughout. Strings and brass even make appearances in several songs. 
A debut album titled ‘A Beautiful Sickness’ surfaced in 2003. An early self-released version was apparently limited to just three hundred copies. Shortly after the band was signed by Dutch label Karmageddon Media (ex-Hammerheart Records) and the album was re-released in 2005 with new artwork. This album was distributed in North America via Candlelight Records USA. The CD included nine tracks plus a cover of the Venom song “Warhead.” Guest musicians contributing to this album include Loston Harris (ex-Wynton Marsalis Band) - keyboards, Clayton Ingerson (Dysrhythmia) – viola, and Bob Dotolo (ex-Thud) – backing vocals.
The next album, ‘The Conjoined’ was released in April of 2007 by upstart label Burning Star Records. Shortly before signing on with Greece based Burning Star the band parted ways with former label Karmageddon Media under vocally acrimonious circumstances. ‘The Conjoined’ was again produced by Kevin 131 and Gutierrez. Guest contributions to this album include Loston Harris – keyboards, Allida Born – cello, and Kevin MacIntyre – additional bass on “Through The Broken Lens.” Also recorded during the same recording sessions was a cover of “The Usurper” by Swiss metal band Celtic Frost. This song was released online only. 
According to metal news site Blabbermouth.net, Project: Failing Flesh is currently at work on a third album to be titled ‘Count Back From Ten.’ A release date has not been reported. 
Eric Forrest is currently also the leader of his own thrash metal project E-Force. Releasing the albums ‘Evil Forces’ (2003) and ‘Modified Poison’ (2008). Former bands include Liquid Indian and Thunder Circus. 
Kevin 131 is also involved in production, recording, and engineering work at his Assembly Line Studios. Past collaborations have included Raven, Deceased, Dysrhythmia, Twisted Tower Dire, Brave, While Heaven Wept, Grand Belial’s Key, and Hounds of Hasselvander. 
Project: Failing Flesh use the Chaos symbol on the cover of their album ‘A Beautiful Sickness.’

Dawn of War 2

Template:Afc r

== Dawn of War 2 is a Sequel from the criticality acclaimed RTS game Dawn of War. There are significant changes to the Graphic Engine in this game, which is now called Essence 2.0, one of the notable features in Dawn of War is, it will have Havok Engine. There are more features in DOW2 which can be read here:

- Uses the Essence 2.0 engine with Havok physics, all optimised for DX10 and multicore support.

- It looks great, think of the DoW intro but with a bit less polygons here and there (in terms of lighting and all that it looks almost exactly the same).

- Units also use Company of Heroes-like unit AI for awareness and pathfinding to find cover and such.

- While DoW 2 shares the same (upgraded probably) engine as CoH it won't be "CoH in space", while soldiers in CoH will ask themselves if flanking the enemy is the right option, in DoW2 it will be more like Space Marines asking themselves if they should use their jetpacks to jump over an Ork squad to attack them in the back. Different settings, different kinds of warfare.

- Preview only showed a destroyed city landscape, akin to DoW (but more detailed), other tilesets will offer deserts, jungles, mountains and other cities.

- Only the Orkz and Space Marines were revealed, more races on the way obviously and to be to revealed later this year.

- Co-op campaign for both the Orkz and Space Marines, apparently not for the other to-be-revealed races.

- More focus on making units and squads unique; every unit has got a name (at least in the campaign it seems), more details and more animations.

- Relic wants to give players rewards at the end of a mission like wargear (armor, weapons, rare objects); "Let's pimp out squads with cool stuff!", you will see these items in-game as well of course.

- You'll fight your way through the campaign with the same squads.

- You can't control more than six squads

- The squads are going to be a lot more interesting than before.

- A squad leader (one or several?) will need to survive if you want to complete a mission; you really have to look out for your squads and don't treat them like cannon fodder.

- There is a lot more interesting commentary from the units as well; if your SM commander is holding a Thunder Hammer f.e. then the opponent will specifically comment on that, Ork Warchief saying something like "Ooh, nice hammer, but mine is bigger!". The warchief will say something else if the commander doesn't have the hammer.

- The campaign lets Space Marines operate from a spaceship, you'll get a view of an underlying planet and you'll be able to choose from different missions (which are tagged with difficulty colours, green, blue and red).

- Certain reward items won't be useable at once in the campaign, so they'll be taken back to the Space Marine spaceship for research.

- Dreadnought can now also trample Orkz.

- No sea or air units (though jetpacks are still in of course).

- Development team of 55 people has been working on it since September 2005.

- Release in early 2009 or later


Of course there are some small other facts notable:

Buildings can be occupied (like in Company of Heroes)

-Environment completely destructable

-Vehicles are bigger

-Over the top finishing animations

-when units are in melee, pieces of battle armor can be chopped off in the action

The reception of the news that DOW2 is in the making was met with large positive reception, but there were some speculations that you can only control 6 six squads and you have to keep them alive, while back the old DOW and it's expansion packs you could train many you could and send'em to they're graves.

Richard Cuffari

Template:Afc r

Richard Cuffari was born on March 2, 1925 to immigrant parents in Brooklyn, N.Y. Both parents worked during the Depression to support Cuffari and his mentally handicapped brother. There was not much money to support Cuffari's artistic talents. However, as a student at Madison High School, Cuffari won numerous awards for his art work.

From 1943 to 1946, he served in the U.S. Army. After World War II, Cuffari enrolled at Pratt Institute graduating in 1949. While attending Pratt, he met fellow art student, Phyllis Klie. They married in 1950, and the first of four children was born the following year.

Having begun his career as a commercial graphic artist, Cuffari began freelancing as a children's book illustrator in 1966 with his first book, The Wind in the Willows. He went on to illustrate over 200 books for children, specializing in historical, non-fiction books: "I have always been fascinated by things historical; events, personalities, how people lived and how they looked. I believe that the study of these things help provide insight into the present." For his work, Cuffari was awarded the Citation of Merit from the New York Society of Children's Illustrators in 1969 and 1970 and the Christopher Award in 1973.

Cuffari who once said "I think that working with or for children in any way is a privilege" died in 1978 at the age of fifty-three.

The Contaminated (band)

Template:Afc r


Template:Tlx


Early Years

It all started when the band was formed by three talented individuals, all living in Florida. The three founders of The Contaminated consisted of Kevin Schechter (guitar), Matt Firestone (ukulele, bass guitar), and Sasan Peimani (drums, percussion). The band was first conceived when Kevin and Matt were composing songs in Kevin's room. The next day, Sasan proposed to them to form a band, an offer to which they both graciously accepted. Later on, in their search for a keyboardist, they found Or Bazini (keyboards), who was very enthusiastic about the invitation to join the band. Soon after, they found a vocalist, Amiel Abir (vocals), who was willing to join the band in their journey to create music. The band aims to create and spread music that people all around the globe can enjoy and appreciate, as said Sasan Peimani: "We just want to make the best music we can, to make everyone happy, and to fulfill our goals and dreams."

Band Name Decision

The band had many creative and ear-catching prospective names with which to label themselves. They went through many names, contemplating each and every one. Their best and most renowned names included:

The Contaminated, The Ear-Artists, Maximum Capacity, Alien Fire, A Day at the Beach, Frostbite, The Surfboards, Plain Blue T's, etc...

In the end, after many polls and surveys, they decided to go with the striking name of "The Contaminated".


"I would much rather buy an album from an artist called "The Contaminated" than from any other choices you've shown me.." -Matthew Jacoby

Influences

Anything they've ever listened to. Mainly rock (all genres of rock)

Neopets (Film)

Template:Afc r


Sources

98.217.172.21 (talk) 20:32, 30 March 2008 (UTC) Warner Bros. Pictures has entered into an agreement with NeoPets, Inc.® to develop and produce animated feature films based on new and existing stories and characters from the virtual world of Neopets.com, the world's leading online youth community. The announcement was made today by Jeff Robinov, President, Production, Warner Bros. Pictures, and Doug Dohring, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, NeoPets, Inc.

Dylan Sellers will produce the projects with Dohring; Warner Bros. Pictures' Aditya Sood will oversee production for the Studio. NeoPets, Inc. will co-finance development.

The Neopets website is themed around the ownership of, and interaction with, virtual pets that are created and cared for by site members. To date, the Neopets website has more than 25 million members worldwide and generates more than seven billion page views per month in 10 languages. It is consistently ranked as one of the fastest growing sites on the Internet and one of the "stickiest" sites in the world, meaning that members return frequently to interact with each other and with their Neopets.

Said Robinov, "We're looking forward to expanding this exceptional Internet property into feature films that bring the worldwide appeal of this website to theaters."

Added Dohring, "Neopets has always been very selective in choosing its business partners and we are extremely pleased with the opportunity to work with such a quality studio as Warner Bros. Pictures. We are confident that this collaboration will result in the successful expansion of the Neopets world into offline media."

Pretend-pets from the Web are headed for the big screen.

NeoPets, the wildly popular virtual-pet site, said Thursday that it has signed a multiple-picture deal with Warner Bros. Pictures, one of the five major film studios.

Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.

The studio has agreed to produce computer-animated feature films based on NeoPets characters such as Flotsam and Jetsam.

To own a NeoPet, people log on to NeoPets.com, select a virtual animal, and tend to it by earning points through contests and games. The company reports roughly 25 million pet owners worldwide.

The deal comes as Hollywood and Web companies are cinching closer ties. Sites including Yahoo, Google and America Online are courting studios and broadcasters and winning new deals to distribute their entertainment via the Web. And Hollywood is showing more interest in tapping the Web's popularity for marketing and development material.

AOL said Thursday that it has licensed its original Webisode, or online serial animation, called "Princess Natasha," for television reproduction on Cartoon Network, a cable channel owned by AOL's parent Time Warner. Also, Little, Brown Books for Young Readers will publish two books based on the Princess series in May 2006.

Earlier in March, NeoPets also signed a deal with In-Fusio to bring the virtual-pet game to mobile phones. Popular with young girls, NeoPets is ranked the top toys and games site, measured by the amount of time kids spend with it, according to Nielsen NetRatings.
