I don't see how this is a personal attack. This article is very obviously skewed to give the game a better outlook than what it deserves. Most people who have played the game have criticized it, based solely on the metacritic source you people are using and manipulating to make the game seem better than it is. The article written is very obviously a child of nepotism, and sadly, there are no sensible moderators, who are knowledgeable on the matter, and who care enough, that are willing to fix it. Now just watch, quick to cancel out dissent, you guys will label this comment as harassment, and this encyclopedia will have taken another step toward a more biased, and less factual source of knowledge. 71.192.72.22 | toxic | en |

Anti communism or criticism of (totalitarian) communist regimés? ==
What exacly is this article.
For example the European Union condemns the crimes of totalitarian communist regimés. Not communism itself, from which many of its founding pillars on human rights have been formed. Such as the right to education and health which derive from early socialist and communisty theory.
There needs be a clear distinction between these two things and if need be a new article dealing with anti-communism.
For example it is clear that the views of the soviet left are not anti-communist but anti-stalinist (that article already exists).
Hitler was staunchly anti-communist but not anti totalitarian.
The American form of anti-communism also differs from much of the criticism against communist regimés in Europe as america is one of very few nations who does not recognise the full charter of UN human rights (in terms of positive freedoms - that is rights to education, healthcare, work and housing - all communist/socialist principles).
I hope that this can be resolved. I was going to fully re-modify this article but I guess some discussion is much needed.
edit: Important, this is not criticism OF the criticism of communism. Just that this article has more criticism of certain communist regimés than than communist ideology.
== Balance ==
Could the people who worked on the criticism section of this article also flesh out the criticism sections of the communist and anti-capitalist pages? There needs to be some balance. —Preceding unsigned comment added by

I don't think sounds right. Syrians, Afghans, and Eritreans are being lumped together and it's misleading.
Currently it says: ""as of October 2015, 75% of the over half a million Mediterranean Sea arrivals since the beginning of the year are refugees coming from Syria (55%), Afghanistan (14%) and Eritrea (6%).""

The reasons I dont contribute to Wikipedia anymore
Reversions like the one you just executed on the psychology template presuppose a knowledge of psychology. I must imagine that if you don't understand why the template is inadequate then you have not the faintest idea of what constitutes pscyhology. It is a) an academic (taught) discipline, b) a research discipline, c) an applied discipline, d) a profession, interest group and lobby e) a property of of social perception or a folk psychology if you like and f) an aspect of the humanities and the social sciences as well as a peer of psychiatry, social work and in some respects occupational therapy; g) a contested political terrain (which you would understand if a non-amateur had written the articles on critical psychology and cultural-historical psychology). Neither the template nor the main article bring out these distinctions. Instead what you have is a bad summary of a first year textbook of an American perspective on the psychodynamic-post- Skinnerian model of psychology circa 1950s. Having to explain this and to persuade you is hardly what someone with advanced expertise in the area wants to be doing on a Saturday afternoon. It is insulting, demoralizing and a waste of time. I imagine that the net sum of your expertise can probably be located at the lower end of a) or e) in which case you are probably enthuisiastic about your ignorance. So thank you for giving me one more reason not to contribute to

No, YOU and DIANA and a handfull of other people accuse Steiner of racism, that's all. That's why it is a only a tiny minority viewpoint, and that's why it should not be represented. I'm not saying represented at all, I'm saying represented as a subarticle. It gives that article undue weight.
And the reason that it DOES matter as to the point I made about other encyclopedias not accusing or even mentioning Steiner's racial views is that these encyclopedias are the mainstream academic viewpoints. This is important to establish because yours, like those of the flat-earth society, are the opinions of the tiny minority.
""Views held only by a tiny minority of people should not be represented as though they are significant minority views, and perhaps should not be represented at all.""

My cite states that no notes issued prior to the ""greenbacks"" were legal tender under the greenbacks and you would have known this if you had bothered to read he material I posted in the two wiki Fed articles. BTW: are you wise and omniscient ones (sarcasm) aware that Federal reserve notes were not legal tender until 1933?
lets see if you read it here
I believe that Congress does NOT have the power to make paper money a legal tender and does not even have the power to make gold and silver a legal tender.The reference below show clearly that at least one US president and Funding Father agree with me on both counts and that at least two US presidents, and Founding Fathers agree with me on one count.
I hope that claims of original research and synthesis can now be put to rest as BOGUS.
An old NY times article http://query.nytimes.com/mem/archive-free/pdf?_r=1&res;=9501E2DB133BEE33A25751C1A9669D94679ED7CF references the following quotes
James Madison - Thus the pretext for a paper currency and particularly for making the bill a legal tender, either for public or private debt, was cut off
Thomas Jefferson - I now deny their (Congress's) power of making paper money, or anything else, a legal tender
A Mr Benton who is also cited, states: The power granted to Congress to coin money is an authority to stamp metallic money, and is not an authority for emitting slips of paper containing promises to pay money.
Per Yale Law School records of the minutes of the vote to TAKE AWAY from Congress the power to ""emit bills of credit"" during the Constitutional Convention as recorded by Founding Father and future president James Madison http://avalon.law.yale.edu/18th_century/debates_816.asp
FN23 This vote in the affirmative by Virga. was occasioned by the acquiescence of Mr. Madison who became satisfied that striking out the words would not disable the Govt. from the use of public notes as far as they could be safe & proper; & would only cut off the pretext for a paper currency, [FN24] and particularly for making the bills a tender [FN24] either for public or private debts.
and
""Mr. Ghorum was for striking out, without inserting any prohibition. if the words stand they may suggest and lead to the measure.""
My aside: The power to be struck out was the power to ""emit"". Mr. Ghorum, (Madison misspelled the name - the person is actually Nathanial Gorham) states that if the words stand (the words being ""emit bills of credit"") that ""they may suggest and lead to the measure"" with the measure being printing legal tender paper money. To be ABSOLUTELY clear, this vote denied Congress the power to ""emit"" per money, and strikes at the core of arguments in favor of paper money, because Congress cannot make paper money a legal tender because the power to print paper money was REMOVED from Congress. If Congress cannot even print paper money, how can it make it legal tender?
In Federalist 44 - Madison states
The extension of the prohibition to bills of credit must give pleasure to every citizen, in proportion to his love of justice and his knowledge of the true springs of public prosperity. The loss which America has sustained since the peace, from the pestilent effects of paper money on the necessary confidence between man and man, on the necessary confidence in the public councils, on the industry and morals of the people, and on the character of republican government, constitutes an enormous debt against the States chargeable with this unadvised measure, which must long remain unsatisfied; or rather an accumulation of guilt, which can be expiated no otherwise than by a voluntary sacrifice on the altar of justice, of the power which has been the instrument of it.
From Craig v Misouri
The whole was intended to exclude everything from use as a circulating medium except gold and silver''', and to give to the United States the exclusive control over the coining and valuing of the metallic medium. That the real dollar may represent property, and not the shadow of it.
From the dissenting opinion to one of the Legal Tender cases http://supreme.justia.com/us/79/457/case.html - starts with THE CHIEF JUSTICE, dissenting'Acts of Congress not made in pursuance of the Constitution are not laws.We perceive no connection between the express power to coin money and the inference that the government may, in any contingency, make its securities perform the functions of coined money, as a legal tender in payment of debtsIt is unnecessary to say that we reject wholly the doctrine, advanced for the first time | toxic | en |

""m'appuyant sur"" = ""by relying upon"" and not ""having been inspired by"". B. In Greek, ""to rely upon"" is βασίζομαι, and there you can see the word βάση which means base. I also leave it up to you to decide the wording for Sturm's method and Fourier's theorem. I simply cannot accept the word inspiration; reminds me of religion.

<font size="3"><b>Why we're changing our publishing schedule</b></font>
<br><br>
Dear Reader,
<p>
As of Monday, July 15, AnchorDesk is being published on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, instead of five days a week. The AnchorDesk Weekly newsletter will continued to be published every Friday
<p>
Why are we doing this? There are several reasons, but the most important one is giving me a chance do more than just sit behind a desk typing all day in order to meet deadlines. I've been writing five columns a week for 18 months now, and I'd be lying to you if I didn't admit to being more than a little tired.
<p>
Also, I've been on such a short leash that I haven't been able to travel or meet as many people as I'd like. This new schedule means I'll have more time to get out, learn more, see more products, and discover new issues or trends. So it should result in a more interesting and useful AnchorDesk for you.
<p>
Having additional time also means I will be able to work on several projects I've been assigned, including one that could bear fruit at the Consumer Electronics Show next January. More about that soon, once all the details are nailed down.
<p>
For now, the new schedule is being called a "test," which means it could turn out to be temporary--or maybe not. We'll run it through the end of the summer and see how it works.
<p>
I appreciate your continued support of AnchorDesk. While the column will be less frequent, I will still be on <a href="http://clickthru.online.com/Click?q=34-pJpSIcd8ldb3QT23_tvVyn4IcgyR" >CNET Radio</a> every weekday at noon PT (or on-demand streaming anytime) and hope you will join me there.
<p>
Sincerely,
<p>
David Coursey<br>
Executive Editor<br>
AnchorDesk

:No one disputes that 0^0 is 1 when interpreted as the cardinality of maps from the empty set to the empty set. But that is not what the real-to-real-power exponential function is. When we say , we certainly don't mean that the cardinality of the set of maps from a set of cardinality to one of cardinality is ! That would be simply gibberish. And the meaning of the exponential function is not based on case logic; there is no special case for zero.
:So the conclusion must be that the real-to-real-power exponential function is simply a different function from the natural-to-natural-power one. They're notated the same, and called by the same name, but that does not make them the same.
:They form a nice commutative diagram with large ranges of the inclusion map, and so you could if you wanted to make a grand unified exponential function that incorporates them both. That's what Bo wants to do. But in practice no one does that. For the very good reason that the grand unified exponential function isn't good for anything. | toxic | en |

I reworked the paragraph in question to read:
:""The key contention of creationists is that evolution is not sufficient to account for diversity of life. This view is overwhelmingly rejected by the scientific community and academia, ; ; ; ; and how, as in the title of a famous essay by Theodosius Dobzhansky, Nothing in Biology Makes Sense Except in the Light of Evolution.
Which I think is accurate, and fits nicely in the article. It does however shift the ""key"" creationist contention from evolution not being able to explain the origins of life (which, I think, it is not claimed to explain) to evolution not being able to explain the diversity of life (which is what evolution explains, at least as I understand it.) E.g., see my observation above regarding a comet bringing life to Earth. If this observation were ever established in mainstream science, it would not affect evolution, except, perhaps, raising the possibility that life may have had more than one origin (comet impact).
I fully admit that I could be wrong in this summary, and would appreciate correction.

subject : re : heartland industrial partners
with respect to your questions concerning the heartland industrial partners fund and current investments :
heartland is a private equity buyout fund with $ 1 . 2 billion in commitments . the targeted size of the fund is $ 2 billion . the fund is headed by david stockman , former managing director at the blackstone group . stockman was director of omb under reagan .
heartland ' s objective is an irr of 30 % gross ( 26 % to the limited partners ) . the limiteds get an 8 % preferred return after which the gp gets a 20 % carried return . the gp also receives a 1 . 5 % management fee . in my experience these terms are consistent with most private equity funds .
the fund ' s objective is to acquire and expand industrial companies " in sectors ripe for consolidation and growth . " these " industrial platform scaleups " are targeted to be in sectors such as aerospace components and materials , automotive suppliers , capital goods , chemicals , plastics conversion , metal working , etc .
the fund has two investments currently :
mascotech is a merger of three fund companies . it is a leading global designer and supplier of high quality , low - cost metal formed components , assemblies and modules for the transportation industry . products include noise vibration and harshness products , transmission and transfer case components , engine components , wheel end and suspension components , axle driveline components . estimated revenues were $ 1 . 9 billion in 2001 . the company has 50 facilities in 11 countries . 9 , 500 employees .
an agreement to purchase collins & aikman corporation was signed in january 2001 . c & a is a leader in automotive floor and acoustic ceilings and a leading supplier of automotive fabric , interior trim and convertible top systems with 2000 sales of $ 1 . 9 billion .
the original dash in april 2000 predicated that " ena will receive the exclusive right to provide all energy - related products and services to each platform company owned by the fund . . . ena will submit a comprehensive , long - term , energy managment plan for each platform company . hip will be obligated to accept and implement the plan as long as the plan provides a cost benefit relative to the platform company ' s current practices after accounting for switching costs . the expected value of this business to ena is about $ 20 - 50 mm .

dave ,
congrats on your new role . heartland industrial partners was an investment pursued solely for the purpose of providing deal flow for energy outsourcing opportunities when ena ' s industrial group was following a broad based energy outsourcing business plan . it has zero relevance to eim ' s business . in fact , heartland has been reflected on ena ' s balance sheet ever since the creation of eim last august . brad dunn has administered the relationship as a transitional matter in the intervening months . brad has attempted to get ees to take on the transaction , but they have expressed no interest in the capital commitment . however , ees wants the option to look at the energy outsourcing opportunities in the transaction . if i thought i could get a free option , i would take the same position . if enron is to get anything out of heartland industrial partners beyond the return on our invested dollars , that value will come to ees . since there is no paper or steel aspect to heartland , it doesn ' t belong in eim and i don ' t want it . i would be happy to discuss .
on a different note , there are lots of opportunities for ees and eim to work together on ( i ) energy opportunities in eim ' s pulp colwell , wes ; raymond bowen / hou / ect @ enron
subject : heartland industrial partners
richard , it is my understanding that this investment is currently in ray bowen ' s business . in my ena shoes , i would say we would have no interest in taking on that responsibility . in my ees shoes , i would like to take a closer look at the possible connections . please send me some info on the investment fund and their current investments portfolio .
i have also heard that tom white has been talking to you about ees taking on the catalytica investment . with my ees shoes on , no way ! ! ! !

dave , in may 2000 enron north america committed to invest up to $ 30 million in heartland industrial partners l . p . , a private equity fund . the terms of the fund investment are fairly typical ( and not particularly exciting for a limited partner such as we ) . the deal was " sold " on the basis of ena getting exclusive rights to provide energy management services to companies owned by the fund if these were cost effective . the claimed benefits for the energy management tie were calculated at $ 20 - 50 million . the deal was originated by brad dunn who now is in eim . ownership of this commitment had been assigned to jim ajello .
the kinds of energy management services associated with this deal are now provided by ees . while they are happy to exploit any opportunity , their business plan does not contemplate investment substantial capital in this kind of deal . in short , they have no interest in picking up the commitment ( and capital employed ) via an intercompany transfer .
private equity funds such as this are highly illiquid by design and the normal investment cycle is at least 5 - 7 years . the heartland partnership has a 10 - year life , enron did negotiate the right to sell its lp interest after 3 years . as a practical matter , that right guarantees neither a fair price or even a market .
there is no logical home for this investment that i know of in ena except in my portfolio . question : is this an ena responsibility or would it move to eim ' s balance sheet ? if we ( ena ) have no choice but to retain the investment , my group will take responsibility for it and do our best to monetize funds invested to - date ( about $ 6 million ) and sell the remaining commitment . since the fund itself is still marketing limited partnership interests , however , it will be extremely difficult to get out of our investment / commitment in the foreseeable future . under any circumstances finding a buyer will be time - consuming and expensive . ( this is a poster child for " patient " investment capital ) .
i want to ensure that you are aware of the situation in case your view is that the obligation should be transferred to eim which i believe has assumed the charter of the ena group that formerly managed this investment . dick . | scam | en |

HELP ! ! Threat to block user without adequate cause.
Khoikhoi - A user, Ryulong, possibly a Wikipedia admin, is raising threats of blocking me for ""daring"" to question whether he should remain an admin (if he is one). My understanding is that adminship can be revoked, all admins should acknowledge that, and no admin should threaten to block a user for opposing his adminship. That would be like the President of the USA threatening to censor, or quash, a citizen who called for his resignation or impeachment. Please look, or ask several other admins to look, at the recent (today) exchanges between me and Ryulong on our talk pages. I feel that Ryulong has committed conduct unbecoming an admin. I request that his suitability as an admin be questioned and reviewed. Thank you. " | toxic | en |

It does read ""not exclusively"" which means ""here are some examples of those who do, and this list is not intended to be exclusive"".
If you start adding to it, it becomes pedantic and ridiculous.
If you make a blanket categorical statement, then you would need to prove that that was valid.
Let sleeping dogs lie.

I have re-read and reorganised the sections up to the ""Environmental dimension"" bit - this is to get a clearer and simpler flow of ideas. Please read and comment. Next step will be to condense the ""Environmental dimension"" section - do you think it is an improvement? Granitethighs " | toxic | en |

:*That's what people decide during an AfD. If the problems presented by those who want it deleted are real problems and in that case if they can be fixed. Assuming good faith, clearly I don't believe this article can be ""fixed"" through normal editing, and likewise assuming good faith you do believe it can, or perhaps that there is nothing to fix. Is it disruptive to nominate an article one believes cannot be ""fixed through normal editing"" to AfD? If so, then again you're impugning all AfD nominations, since they are always based on such a belief initially. If not, then you're rather specifically impugning my motives, suggesting that I am nominating this entry despite believing that it can be fixed. In other words your assuming bad faith. There is no way for this to be disruption if you assume good faith, unless, again you think all AfD nominations are disruptive. Cheers. " | toxic | en |

Then I retract my statement about ""enabling"" in the edit summary. However, there is significant evidence that the anon poster was Sanchez, as his petulant habit since his ban has been to ""snipe from cover,"" as it were. " | toxic | en |

new extraordinary session
yesterday , the senate and assembly passed resolutions to close the extraordinary session . all bills from the lst session be introduced into the 2 nd session as they were last amended , with the same bill number .
forbearance period extended
regarding the forbearance extended to socal by banker creditors , the parent company ' s credit has been extended until 30 june . the utility ' s forbearance is until 15 september .
qfs placing liens on socal ' s assets
the qfs are placing liens against socal ' s assets ( property or freezing its bank assets ) . as a result , socal is moving ever closer to bankruptcy , maybe as early as later next week . these actions on behalf of the qfs are added incentives for the legislature to move quickly on an alternative to the mou .
alternative plan to the mou
the mou for socal is essentially deal . there are a number of alternative plans being proposed . the legislature held meetings last night on democratic assemblyman nation ' s plan b alternative to the mou . this plan is gaining momentum . according to sources , republican assembly leader cox has signed off for people to work on the plan implying republican interest . senator burton ' s office also reported work on the same plan b . governor davis ' office is aware of the plan but has yet to comment . there is also no word at this time as to whether the republican senate leadership is in support of nation ' s plan b .
key details of the nation plan include a $ 1 . 2 billion option for the state to purchase socal ' s transmission assets . this money would be given to socal by the state regardless of whether the option was exercised , a detail likely to be unpopular with voters . the remainder of the undercollect , stated as $ 3 . 5 billion or an amount determined by puc review , would be paid through securitization of the undercollect by socal . moreover , the utility would sell the state additional power at a cost beyond the 10 years already agreed upon in the memorandum - of - understanding and additional power from other company sources . sources report that the nation plan also currently calls for generators to take a 30 % haircut .
the nation plan b will likely be introduced as a bill tomorrow and will likely go through start the legislative process by early next week . the next scheduled floor session is thursday ; we should be able to tell how fast the legislature intends to move the bill . there is no indication whether socal edison would agree to the nation plan . sources believe it is likely that socal would object to at least some of the plan ' s provisions ( for example , a puc audit of socal ' s debt amount to determine the direct rate component to pay for the undercollect ) . socal is very much at odds with the puc and wishes them to play as little role as possible . if socal does ultimately agree to the plan , the state reportedly may offer a similar deal to pg & e . | scam | en |
