This is a request transferred from de:WP:Bibliotheksrecherche/Anfragen. I would have ordered this book by myself for one of our editors, however it is not available in the German national library system. I would therefore have to order it from a foreign library for 20 € (still no comparison to the original price of this work). I would be very thankful if anyone were able to make a scan of this work. The editor who requested it is a highly productive author and the results of his work would also be a valuable basis for any English articles on this topic. I know this is a lot of work. I would return the favour at any time, please let me know when you need a paper or book from Germany. Best regards, Toter Alter Mann ( talk) 23:59, 23 June 2011 (UTC)

Greetings from Germany :) I'm expanding the german film article de:Peggy Sue hat geheiratet to an excellent level, but a lot of source material aren't available in my country or at google. I just need the Peggy Sue parts, not the hole books or papers. I would be also happy, if you also could find some references to themes like the connection between the songs and the movie, that the movie crew restored the Santa Rosa High Shool (because i couldn't find anything except the engl. wiki) and a serious reference, that Kathleen Turner replaced Debra Winger in Body Heat (because she also did it in Peggy Sue and Romancing the Stone). And I would appreciate additional source material i never thought of (interviews/scientific articles - the language doesn't matter) Just add the Information to my notices at de:Benutzer:Critican.kane/Spielwiese or send me an wiki-mail. And in the first place a BIG Thanks to everybody, who efforts to help me. (Sry, for my bad english :))

The rest I cannot get. Goodvac ( talk) 16:28, 26 September 2011 (UTC)The Bessemer steelworks erected by the Lancashire Steel Company at Gorton, and as yet scarcely completed to half their intended extent, form an object of unusual interest with regard to that particular element of economy in ironworks, viz., the convenience of general arrangement. The works at Gorton are intended for the manufacture of rails, bars, plates, tyres, and forgings of Bessemer steel. It is purposed to erect in them four pairs of 5-ton converters. The area inclosed by the walls is of a rectangular shape, adjoining on one side a line of railway from which two sidings lead into the large yard for storing raw material — this yard being 560 feet long and 180 feet wide.
The workshops are designed as a rectangular block of buildings and sheds, 480 feet long and 410 feet in total width, there being eight spans of 60 feet each. The roofs are carried upon longitudinal girders supported by...
"...ance at the mouth of the converter, and is done for the purpose of heating the charge by the combustion of the charcoal within the vessel. This is said to be particularly effective when "white iron," or iron containing a small percentage of carbon, is worked in the converter. The supply of additional heat to the charge during the period of desilicatization maintains the mass in a state of sufficient fluidity until the combustion of the carbon contained in the iron itself is so far advanced as to require no further supply of heat.

The most important object in this forge is a steam hammer of 16 tons head, and about 8 feet fall, constructed at a recent date by Mr. Haswell, of Vienna.

The Bessemer steelworks erected by the Lancashire Steel Company at Gorton, and as yet scarcely completed to half their intended extent, form an object of unusual interest with regard to that particular element of economy in ironworks, viz., the convenience of general arrangement. The works at Gorton are intended for the manufacture of rails, bars, plates, tyres, and forgings of Bessemer steel. It is purposed to erect in them four pairs of 5-ton converters. The area inclosed by the walls is of a rectangular shape, adjoining on one side a line of railway from which two sidings lead into the large yard for storing raw material — this yard being 560 feet long and 180 feet wide.

The first roof covers all melting furnaces for pig iron and spiegeleisen, and the boilers for the blowing engine. The second span contains all converters, placed in one straight line, each pair in a separate pit, fitted with the usual hydraulic cranes and machinery. The blowing engines are situated at each of the ends of this span. The third space of 60 feet is used as a clear space for storing ingots; then follows the shed for the steam hammers; then a row of reheating furnaces, the rolling mills, with another row of furnaces; and the last space for finishing the work produced by the mills. A rectangular open space is left on all four sides of the buildings, this space forming the storeyard and passages for communications. The whole ground is inclosed on three sides by long lines of buildings, forming the repairing shops, offices, storehouses, &c.

The circular saw is fitted with Robertson's frictional gearing, and is driven by an engine attached to it. In the same shed with the saw are placed three machines, by Messrs. Collier and Co. for straightening and punching rails. A large mill for boiler plates has been fitted up in the same line with the rail mill. It is driven by a single-cylinder horizontal engine, by Messrs. Musgrave and Sons, fitted with very heavy gearing, and will produce plates up to 9 feet wide. The mill consists of three pairs of rolls about 2 feet diameter: the first pair, about 5 feet wide, being of gray cast iron; the second and third pairs chilled. A mill for rolling weldless steel tyres is to occupy the space next to this mill, but it has not been laid down as yet. The quantity of rails turned out by the rail mill in regular working of ten hours daily is about 150 tons per week, and the plate mill is expected to produce 100 tons of plates per week.

Google Books is almost completely inaccessible to me as a blind person, and I have to rely on the text snippets. Specifically, I'd like the full article from the September 1983 issue of Orange Coast Magazine' (I don't even know the article's title!), and the entry for Joan Armatrading from Notable Caribbeans and Caribbean Americans: a biographical dictionary. Of course, if they're available more directly in other databases, I wouldn't mind that either. Thanks! Graham 87 04:44, 27 September 2011 (UTC)

Viewpoint Music: Joan Armatrading Hopes 'The Key' Finds Success
Joan Armatrading, comfortably clad in a sweat shirt and jeans, entered the small room inside A&M Records' publicity department. She was nearly an hour late for her 1:00 pm interview. It wasn't that she takes pleasure in being fashionably late, or is inconsiderate of other people's time. Rather, it was merely a chain reaction— her earlier interviews ran late, putting her behind schedule. Who knows what time she got to her 6:00 pm appointment. Armatrading, a singer/songwriter with distinctive, emotional vocals and sensitive, personal lyrics, was visiting her record company prior to an LA concert appearance— one stop on her current worldwide tour. Although she has been around for 10 years, and has nine albums to her credit, her show didn't sell out. Still, the cult following who did attend her performance enjoyed it, as did the critics. But then, Armatrading has always been a favorite of the critics. The New York Times once called her "the best unknown pop star in the business," while Playboy called her "one of the most interesting ladies in music." Newsweek described her as "heroic... irresistable," while the Boston Globe suggested "In a sense, what Joan Baez was to the politically active '60s, Joni Mitchell was to the introspective, apolitical '70s... If the yet-undefined '80s are still up for grabs— and they probably are— a strong vote should go to another Joan... Joan Armatrading." Her problem has been exposure, more specifically, radio airplay. For the St. Kitt's-born, English-bred songstress, radio airplay is the key. The Key is also the name of her current album, which, unlike most of her previous works, is getting airplay. On the whole, it's more electric and punchier than the fare to which Armatrading fans have become accustomed. Three songs in particular, Drop the Pilot, Rosie, and Call Me Names have been added to several local FM album-oriented rock stations. "You have to be played on me radio," Armatrading said. "They're (the public) not going to know you if they don't play it. "Some of the things I hear on the radio, I wonder, 'If they played that, why not me?' Maybe they just don't like me," she said with a laugh. Actually, Armatrading, whose strong alto voice and unusual style differ from just about everybody's, realizes her sound is, well, not exactly the kind of material normally heard over the airwaves. In fact, she jokes about it, although she realizes it isn't very funny. "The first time I heard myself over the radio," she recalled, "I thought it sounded kind of strange, and not just because it was me. It didn't fit in with what was played before it, or after it, but I liked it. "It's just a matter of listening to it. Maybe people listening now will have the same reaction I had 10 years ago. If they listen, maybe they will realize that it can fit in." Listening to a Joan Armatrading record is an acquired taste, something akin to eating squid. Both can be hard to digest, but are considered delicacies. The third of six children, Joan was born on December 9, 1950 on the Caribbean island of St. Kitt's. Her father was a St. Kitt's native, while her mother was from Antigua. In early 1958, the family moved to Birmingham, England. Armatrading taught herself to play the guitar, absorbing such disparate influences as Jim Reeves, English pop star Tommy Steele, Nat King Cole, and Van Morrison. She wrote her first song at age 14, and eventually began playing clubs in the Birmingham area. Her first album, Whatever's For Us, was released in 1973. Although she is still trying to establish herself in the United States, Armatrading has a substantial following in Great Britain and Europe. To date, she has sold seven million records worldwide and earned more than 20 international gold records. "I would like to sell more records in America," she said, "not so people could look at me walking down the street and say, 'There's Joan Armatrading.' But I would like to walk down a street and hear someone singing my songs. That would be great. With The Key, Armatrading may get her wish. Produced by Steve Lillywhite (Peter Gabriel, XTC, Siouxie and the Banshees, and U2) and Val Garay (Kim Carnes' Grammy-winning Bette Davis Eyes), the album is commercial-oriented. "It took Bob Seger a long time to make it in America, and he lives here," Armatrading said. "It took him 10 years before he was an overnight success. I'm in that position now." THE B SIDE Joan Armatrading, The Key (A&M) — The husky vocals and sensitive lyrics of this commercially long-overdue introspective singer/songwriter has finally combined to form a package that may expose her to a mass audience. Side one opens with the controversial (I Love It When You) Call Me Names, a masochistic ditty the singer claims she wrote as a joke. The song is about a skinny, wimpy man who is having a fling with a big woman who frequently beats him up and calls him names. Sample the lyrics:
"I thought it would be sort of fun to write a song like that, and so far the American public has seen the humor in it," the singer said. In any event, there are other songs on the album not as free spirited as this, but just as catchy. In fact, the first side of The Key is a delight. Foolish Pride and Drop the Pilot—the latter produced by Val Garay of Bette Davis Eyes fame—are instantly accessible, something Armatrading has lacked in previous works. Also worthwhile is What Do Boys Dream and the title track. |

I'm looking for a Hollywood Reporter article that is probably from 1993 or 1994. The subject would be an affirmative action program for Hispanic screenwriters that involved CBS and the Writer's Guild of America. It might also be referred to as a training program or a "special access" program. I'm specificly looking for an article that quotes screenwriter Fred Haines talking about how "one of the most effective union-busting tools has been the two-tier system ..." but any article on the subject is welcome.

Viewpoint Music: Joan Armatrading Hopes 'The Key' Finds Success
Joan Armatrading, comfortably clad in a sweat shirt and jeans, entered the small room inside A&M Records' publicity department. She was nearly an hour late for her 1:00 pm interview. It wasn't that she takes pleasure in being fashionably late, or is inconsiderate of other people's time. Rather, it was merely a chain reaction— her earlier interviews ran late, putting her behind schedule. Who knows what time she got to her 6:00 pm appointment. Armatrading, a singer/songwriter with distinctive, emotional vocals and sensitive, personal lyrics, was visiting her record company prior to an LA concert appearance— one stop on her current worldwide tour. Although she has been around for 10 years, and has nine albums to her credit, her show didn't sell out. Still, the cult following who did attend her performance enjoyed it, as did the critics. But then, Armatrading has always been a favorite of the critics. The New York Times once called her "the best unknown pop star in the business," while Playboy called her "one of the most interesting ladies in music." Newsweek described her as "heroic... irresistable," while the Boston Globe suggested "In a sense, what Joan Baez was to the politically active '60s, Joni Mitchell was to the introspective, apolitical '70s... If the yet-undefined '80s are still up for grabs— and they probably are— a strong vote should go to another Joan... Joan Armatrading." Her problem has been exposure, more specifically, radio airplay. For the St. Kitt's-born, English-bred songstress, radio airplay is the key. The Key is also the name of her current album, which, unlike most of her previous works, is getting airplay. On the whole, it's more electric and punchier than the fare to which Armatrading fans have become accustomed. Three songs in particular, Drop the Pilot, Rosie, and Call Me Names have been added to several local FM album-oriented rock stations. "You have to be played on me radio," Armatrading said. "They're (the public) not going to know you if they don't play it. "Some of the things I hear on the radio, I wonder, 'If they played that, why not me?' Maybe they just don't like me," she said with a laugh. Actually, Armatrading, whose strong alto voice and unusual style differ from just about everybody's, realizes her sound is, well, not exactly the kind of material normally heard over the airwaves. In fact, she jokes about it, although she realizes it isn't very funny. "The first time I heard myself over the radio," she recalled, "I thought it sounded kind of strange, and not just because it was me. It didn't fit in with what was played before it, or after it, but I liked it. "It's just a matter of listening to it. Maybe people listening now will have the same reaction I had 10 years ago. If they listen, maybe they will realize that it can fit in." Listening to a Joan Armatrading record is an acquired taste, something akin to eating squid. Both can be hard to digest, but are considered delicacies. The third of six children, Joan was born on December 9, 1950 on the Caribbean island of St. Kitt's. Her father was a St. Kitt's native, while her mother was from Antigua. In early 1958, the family moved to Birmingham, England. Armatrading taught herself to play the guitar, absorbing such disparate influences as Jim Reeves, English pop star Tommy Steele, Nat King Cole, and Van Morrison. She wrote her first song at age 14, and eventually began playing clubs in the Birmingham area. Her first album, Whatever's For Us, was released in 1973. Although she is still trying to establish herself in the United States, Armatrading has a substantial following in Great Britain and Europe. To date, she has sold seven million records worldwide and earned more than 20 international gold records. "I would like to sell more records in America," she said, "not so people could look at me walking down the street and say, 'There's Joan Armatrading.' But I would like to walk down a street and hear someone singing my songs. That would be great. With The Key, Armatrading may get her wish. Produced by Steve Lillywhite (Peter Gabriel, XTC, Siouxie and the Banshees, and U2) and Val Garay (Kim Carnes' Grammy-winning Bette Davis Eyes), the album is commercial-oriented. "It took Bob Seger a long time to make it in America, and he lives here," Armatrading said. "It took him 10 years before he was an overnight success. I'm in that position now." THE B SIDE Joan Armatrading, The Key (A&M) — The husky vocals and sensitive lyrics of this commercially long-overdue introspective singer/songwriter has finally combined to form a package that may expose her to a mass audience. Side one opens with the controversial (I Love It When You) Call Me Names, a masochistic ditty the singer claims she wrote as a joke. The song is about a skinny, wimpy man who is having a fling with a big woman who frequently beats him up and calls him names. Sample the lyrics:
"I thought it would be sort of fun to write a song like that, and so far the American public has seen the humor in it," the singer said. In any event, there are other songs on the album not as free spirited as this, but just as catchy. In fact, the first side of The Key is a delight. Foolish Pride and Drop the Pilot—the latter produced by Val Garay of Bette Davis Eyes fame—are instantly accessible, something Armatrading has lacked in previous works. Also worthwhile is What Do Boys Dream and the title track. |

I am using the GBooks version of Aryans and British India' (2nd paperback edition, 2006, ISBN: 81-90-2272-1-1), here. I cannot see page 199 and (there is a well-known law for this) it would appear to be the most essential of the three pages I need. The relevant narrative starts on p. 198 and finishes on p. 200 - it is the page in the middle of this range that is blanked.
I can't find any other edition online, nor is there a copy in any library near to me. Can anyone see the "missing" page using GBooks elsewhere than in the UK?
Original publisher was University of California Press (1st edition: 1997); the version I am using is YODA Press (1st ed: 2004; 2nd ed: 2006). - Sitush ( talk) 18:01, 23 November 2011 (UTC)
