Iditarod

2009-06-02T01:09:21Z

CharlesD:

The '''Iditarod''' is a [[race]] in northern [[Alaska]] held every year in winter, when there is snow on the ground for [[sled]]ding. In the Iditarod, everyone gets on their sleds, which are then propelled by dogs on a track between [[Anchorage]] and [[Nome]]. The race can be grueling; sometimes it takes as many as eight or nine days to complete the course.

The first racer to cross the finish line in [[Nome]] receives a green lantern as a ceremonial prize, and the last racer receives a red lantern.

The [[ASPCA]] in particular is vehemently opposed to what it sees as exploitation of the dogs, despite the fact that they are fed well and kept on short chains while kenneled.

::What JP, fails to mention here, is that this took place on Human’s user page.
::Human asked that users who self identify as conservatives not post on his personal user page asking liberal users who they would support as president but rather to post on his user page asking conservatives who they would support—that seems to be a very reasonable request (which JP chose, knowingly, to ignore). He seems to have been acting under the assumption that his user page was his castle and he could tell people who could post where on it. This doesn’t seem like abuse at all, but rather making a reasonable request that is well in line with the Conservapedia policy that a user has the right to decided how his user page is treated.--[[User:Reginod|Reginod]] 11:42, 14 May 2007 (EDT)

:::I count at least three errors of fact in your first sentence, allow me to clear them up. My name is neither “Liberal Reg” nor “Reg”, I identify as a Libertarian and not a liberal, and I have not posted to the conservative page and have no plans to do so. The first two are minor mistakes, but the third strikes me as a serious accusation (that I will violate the castle that is another user’s page and that I am a hypocrite). I would ask that you be clear about the facts before you accuse me of anything in the future.--[[User:Reginod|Reginod]] 17:10, 14 May 2007 (EDT)

::Sorry for offending you nod, first of all 'people like you' doesn't mean you have posted to Republicans. Second of all, all libertarians are just other liberals with a different name.

*[[User:Auld Nick]]. In [http://www.conservapedia.com/index.php?title=Kilt&diff=152957&oldid=152944 this edit], he added [[:Image:Soldiers wearing Kilts.jpg]], with the edit comment "Image of soldiers in kilts" and the picture caption "Kilted Scottish Soldiers paying respect to their fallen comrades." He does not say in the talk page or in an edit comment why he chose an image in which one soldier's kilt has been lifted by wind to expose part of his bare buttocks. The use of such an image ought to have been discussed in Talk. If the point was to illustrate that kilts are worn without underwear, and if he sincerely thought such an image was appropriate, then the edit comment should have said something like "Image showing that kilts are worn without underwear." Therefore, I consider the edit comment misleading, and that trips my threshold for labeling it as "abuse." Put plainly, it's my opinion that Auld Nick is figuratively mooning Conservapedia.

'''Nuclear engineering''' is the branch of [[engineering]] concerned with the design, analysis, development, testing, operation and maintenance of [[nuclear fission]] systems and components; specifically, nuclear reactors, nuclear power plants and/or [[nuclear weapons]]. It can also include the study of [[nuclear fusion]], medical applications of radiation, nuclear safety, heat transport, nuclear fuels technology, nuclear [[proliferation]], and the effect of radioactive waste or radioactivity in the environment.

The '''March of the Voluteers''' is the natonal anthem of the People's Republic of China (Hanyu Pinyin: Yiyongjun Jingxingqu) was adopted as the national anthem of the People's Republic of China in June of 1949 at a conference in Prague. It became the official anthem on 27 September 1949.

The lyrics were from a play by Tian Han. The song was by Nie Er, in 1935. The same song was used as the theme song to a Chinese film. Today, this song is the national anthem of the [[People's Republic of China]], [[Macau]], and [[Hong Kong]].

Ludwigshafen

2009-06-02T00:32:34Z

CharlesD: General cleanup

'''Ludwigshafen''' was a major industrial center in Germany, and during World War II it was the center of the chemical industry. The Allies (the U.S. and Britain), following the doctrine of "[[strategic bombing]]" targeted it for destruction by hundreds of air raids, after warning all civilians to evacuate.

Ludwigshafencenter was a city of 150,000 population (in 1939) on the Rhine River near Heidelberg. Its two giant I.G. Farben plants, covering 1200 acres and employing 40,000 workers, produced much of Germany's ammonia, synthetic rubber, synthetic oil and other vital chemicals; its railroad yards were also important, and hundreds of smaller shops and factories produced war materials, such as diesel engines for submarines. The city fought back, as the Luftwaffe ringed it with 180 high-powered flak guns and numerous airfields to stop Allied bombers.

With the British flying at night and the Americans during the day, some 13,000 Allied bombers hit the city in 121 separate raids during the war, of which 56 raids succeeded in hitting the Farben plant. Those 56 raids dropped 53,000 bombs each containing 250 to 4,000 pounds of high explosives, plus 2.5 million 4-pound magnesium incendiary bombs. (The bombers also dropped millions of warning leaflets and counterfeit ration coupons). Clouds (or protective smoke) usually covered the target, so reconnaisance planes identified the general vicinity with flares, and the bombadiers unloaded on the flares. This sort of "area bombing" was not especially accurate: out of 1,700 bombs dropped on January 7, 1944, only 127 hit the Farben plank. On average, 1.4 tons of bombs hit each acre of the Farben complex (but buildings covered only 25% of the ground, so most hit open land).

Bombing accuracy improved with experience; in a January, 1945, raid, 1,000 high explosive bombs and 10,000 incendiaries fell within the factory fences, starting 10 large, 30 medium and 200 small fires. Bombs that missed the factory that day ruined 354 residences and dehoused 1,800 people. The shelter system worked well, for only five people on the ground were killed. By war's end most dwellings were destroyed or damaged; 1,800 people had died, and 3,000 were injured. Local Nazi officials assisted the homeless and tried to incite the residents to hate the Allies.

Most residents were fatalistic or passive, and were instead inclined to blame Berlin for their troubles. Thousands fled to villages or farms, but enough stayed behind to keep producing chemicals and to assist troop transports moving by rail to the battle of the Bulge. When draft calls removed German men, I. G. Farben replaced them with German women, with civilian "volunteers" from France or Italy, and with Polish and Russian prisoners. The foreigners worked to avoid death from starvation; the Nazis treated them brutally, and were negligent about their safety during the air raids. Systematic air attacks began in earnest in early 1944, and reduced production by half that year. Repairs took longer and longer, as spare parts were difficult to find. By December, so much damage had been done to vital utilities that output dropped to nearly zero. Followup raids every week ended production permanently. On March 1, 1945, infantry from Alexander Patch's Seventh Army ended Ludwigshafen's agony by seizing the city and liberating the slave laborers.
