**Omnidata Corporation** was an American computer company active from 1978 to the late 1980s. The company was founded in Westlake Village, California, by Paul Van Alstyne in the aftermath of his company Wordplex being acquired by the Canada Development Corporation. Like Wordplex, Omnidata primarily focused on the design and manufacturing of word processing computer systems, whether they were sold by Omnidata themselves or provided to other companies to resell. In 1984, they released the Omni Convertible, a microcomputer system that supports up to three microprocessors, of differing architectures—including x86, m68k, Z80, and TMS9900—running simultaneously.

## History

Omnidata was founded in December 1978 in Westlake Village, California, by Paul Van Alstyne. Van Alstyne had previously co-founded Wordplex, a manufacturer of word processing computer systems also based in Westlake Village, in 1974. At Wordplex, Van Alstyne served as president; he and his team developed word processors that directly competed against IBM's offerings at the time. From 1974 to 1978, Omnidata grew from 20 employees to 200 and was the second-largest manufacturer of word processor computers, behind only IBM. In July 1978, they were acquired in full by the Canada Development Corporation (CDC)—already a principal investor in the company—and merged with AES Data Ltd. of Montreal to become AES Wordplex. (CDC later sold off AES Wordplex to Norsk Data in 1987.)

As a design consultant, Omnidata's first client was Triumph-Adler (TA) of Germany. In April 1979, they released the Bitsy line of word processor systems, designed in part by Omnidata and manufactured by TA's subsidiary Diehl Data Systems. As a result of their partnership, TA invested significant capital in Omnidata, eventually owning a 46-percent stake in the company by early 1981.

In 1980, Omnidata released their first word processing system, the Omni/1, which included two Shugart 5.25-inch floppy drives and a Qume daisy wheel printer. Omnidata manufactured the systems and developed the software entirely from their Westlake Village plant. As their end of the Bitsy deal, however, Diehl Data Systems had a hand in designing some of the Omni/1's hardware. The Omni/1 was powered by Texas Instruments' TMS9900 microprocessor. In July 1980, Omnidata leased a second building in Westlake Village dedicated to the company's direct sales division. After unveiling it at the 1980 Hanover Fair, Omnidata delivered the Omni/2, a general-purpose microcomputer also based on the TMS9900 processor, in December that year.

In April 1981, TA purchased the remaining shares in Omnidata, acquiring the company outright and making it a subsidiary of TA. TA had been purchased by Volkswagen AG earlier in 1980, making Omnidata for a brief period a second-order subsidiary of VW. As part of the acquisition, Van Alstyne was promoted to manager of TA's word processing division, directing the development of the Royal brand in the United States and the TA brand in Europe. TA under VW later absorbed Omnidata into their Royal Business Machines subsidiary in 1981.

In early January 1983, as part of VW's reorganization of Triumph-Adler, Omnidata was spun off into a separate company once again. Now on their own, Omnidata began developing the Omni Convertible, an ambitious 16-bit microcomputer that featured support for multiple differing microprocessor architectures running simultaneously. A Zilog Z80H located on its motherboard runs the built-in machine code monitor, while co-processors occupy their own dedicated Multibus card, slotting into one of the four available 16-bit Multibus ports on the Convertible's motherboard. Unveiled at the 1983 CES in November and released to the general public in January 1984, the Omni Convertible came stock with one co-processor card containing Texas Instruments' TMS9995. This card was responsible for running Omnidata's proprietary word processing software suite, Omnitext—on top of their proprietary disk operating system, Omni-DOS—as well as acting as a controller for the keyboard and serial and parallel ports. Optional co-processor cards included Intel's x86-based 80186 and 80286 and Motorola's 68000. While only up to three cards could be operated at the same time, this allowed users to run a combination of CP/M, Unix, MS-DOS, UCSD Pascal, Xenix, Omni-DOS seamlessly and simultaneously.

Omnidata released no new computer systems after 1984 and let their trademark lapse in 1988.

# Steven Lang (character)

**Steven Lang** (sometimes spelled **Stephen Lang**) is a supervillain appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. He is a manufacturer of the mutant-hunting Sentinels. He first appeared in *The X-Men* #96 (December 1975).

## Fictional character biography

Dr. Steven Lang is a pioneer in the field of robotics and genetic mutation who hates mutants. An employee of the U.S. government, he is placed in charge of a federal investigation into the origin of genetic mutation. He plans to use his talents to create an army of mutant hunting robots to kill all mutants. To this end, he seeks to get the government to endorse and financially support his operations.

Lang begins by targeting mutant criminals, such as Mesmero. He claims possession of Bolivar Trask's wrecked Sentinel base's resources, and is backed by Ned Buckman and the "Council of the Chosen", the secret group in control of the New York Branch of the Hellfire Club prior to Sebastian Shaw's takeover.

Lang desires to defeat his main targets, the X-Men, so he creates the "X-Sentinels", android doubles of Professor X and the original X-Men. However, his androids manage only inferior imitations of the X-Men's powers, and are easily defeated by the real X-Men. Jean Grey then telekinetically forces Lang to crash his mini-gunship into a wall-screen. He is left in a coma with severe brain damage.

Afterwards, Lang's brain is used as a template for the minds of two Sentinels, Master Mold and Conscience, both of whom are destroyed in an attempt to release a virus which would have killed all mutants and roughly 97% of normal humans on Earth.

Years later, Lang returns as a member of the Phalanx, a group of humans who had been transformed into techno-organic human-alien hybrids. The transformation process restores Lang's mind, and he becomes the Phalanx's leader. Lang is the only one within the Phalanx to retain his individual human identity, possibly due to the brain damage. While he is ardent in his desire to see mutants eradicated, he comes to realize the Phalanx are a danger to humans as well. He conspires with the X-Men to destroy the Phalanx citadel on Earth, following which he is dragged to his apparent death by his lieutenant Cameron Hodge.

Lang's corpse is exhumed by the Purifiers and reanimated by Bastion using Technarch. He joins a group formed by the foremost anti-mutant leaders under Bastion's control. During the *Second Coming* storyline, Lang and Graydon Creed are killed by Hope Summers.

## Powers and abilities

As a normal human being, Stephen Lang had no superhuman powers. However, he was a genius and pioneer in the field of robotics, with adequate financial resources to fund his operations.

As a member of the Phalanx, he had all of the characteristics of a techno-organic life form: enhanced strength, durability, and agility, ability to re-shape corporeal form at will, and to infect other beings with the techno-organic virus and control infected beings.

## Other versions

In the 2009-2010 miniseries *X-Men Noir*, Lang is a fictional character and lead for Bolivar Trask's pulp sci-fi series, "The Sentinels", who seeks to protect humanity from mutants.

## In other media

General **William Kincaid** (a character similar to Steven Lang) appears in *X-Men Legends*, voiced by John DiMaggio. Under his campaign "Operation Vigilance", he planned to use the Graviton metal to crash Asteroid M into New York to blame the deaths and destruction on mutants for revenge. He later utilized his "Master Mold Armor" hidden inside Asteroid M but was defeated and arrested.

title: Orthophonic Joy

abstract: Orthophonic Joy: The 1927 Bristol Sessions Revisited is a double-CD produced by Grammy Award-winner Carl Jackson, a Bluegrass and country music artist, as a benefit for the Birthplace of Country Music Museum in Bristol, Tennessee. The project was conceived by executive producer Rusty Morrell, a Bristol native who was well acquainted with the story of the historic 1927 Bristol Sessions and imagined a modern tribute to the sessions that have been dubbed the "big bang" of country music. The project includes 37 tracks - 18 songs and 19 spoken word tracks that provide context. WSM disc jockey and country music historian Eddie Stubbs narrates the project, and a who's who of country artists recorded the new versions of the old classics. Jackson recorded the album between 2013 and 2015. It was released by Sony Legacy Recordings on May 12, 2015. The purpose of the 1927 sessions was to record new talent for a public that was buying the new Orthophonic Victrola in record numbers. It launched the recording careers of Jimmie Rodgers and The Carter Family. Ernest Stoneman, already a popular recording artist, convinced Victor executive Ralph Peer to set up a temporary recording studio in Bristol. In a similar vein, the producers sponsored a talent contest for the Orthophonic Joy project. Corbin Hayslett, a 20-year-old banjo player, won the competition with his rendition of "Darling Cora," which he ultimately recorded for the project.

# 1973 Northern Ireland border poll

The **Northern Ireland border poll** was a referendum held in Northern Ireland on 8 March 1973 on whether Northern Ireland should remain part of the United Kingdom or join with the Republic of Ireland to form a united Ireland. It was the first time that a major referendum had been held in any region of the United Kingdom. The referendum was boycotted by nationalists and resulted in a conclusive victory for remaining in the UK. On a voter turnout of 58.7 percent, 98.9 percent voted to remain in the United Kingdom, meaning the outcome was not affected by the boycott.

## Party support

The Unionist parties supported the 'UK' option, as did the Northern Ireland Labour Party and the Alliance Party of Northern Ireland. However, the Alliance Party was also critical of the poll. While it supported the holding of periodic plebiscites on the constitutional link with Great Britain, the party felt that to avoid the border poll becoming a "sectarian head count", it should ask other relevant questions such as whether the people supported the UK's white paper on Northern Ireland. Nevertheless, on 5 February 1973, the party's chairman, Jim Hendron, stated that "Support for the position of Northern Ireland as an integral part of the United Kingdom is a fundamental principle of the Alliance Party, not only for economic reasons but also because we firmly believe that a peaceful solution to our present tragic problems is only possible within a United Kingdom context. Either a Sinn Féin all-Ireland republic or a Vanguard-style Ulster republic would lead to disaster for all our people."

The Social Democratic and Labour Party (SDLP), however, called for a boycott of the referendum, urging its members on 23 January 1973 "to ignore completely the referendum and reject this extremely irresponsible decision by the British Government". Gerry Fitt, leader of the SDLP, said he had organised a boycott to stop an escalation in violence.

## Violence

The civil authorities were prepared for violence on polling day. They had put in place mobile polling stations which could be rushed into use if there was bomb damage to scheduled poll buildings. Two days before the referendum a British soldier, Guardsman Anton Brown of the 2nd Battalion, Coldstream Guards was shot dead in Belfast as the army searched for weapons and explosives which could be used to disrupt the upcoming referendum.

Violence by both Republican and Loyalist paramilitaries still took place on polling day. The Provisional Irish Republican Army exploded several bombs across Northern Ireland and shot dead a British soldier guarding a polling station in the area of the Falls Road in Belfast. The Ulster Defence Association abducted and killed a Catholic civilian from Ballymurphy. A polling station in East Belfast guarded by the Ulster Defence Regiment was also raided by Loyalist paramilitaries who stole several self-loading rifles.

As a political response to the referendum, the Provisional Irish Republican Army also planted four car bombs in London that day, two of which went off, causing one death and injuring over 200.

## Result

**Vote shares**

Remaining in the UK (57.45%)  Did not vote (41.44%)  Leaving the UK and joining the Republic of Ireland (0.62%)  Invalid votes (0.58%)

Referendum results
| Choice | Votes | % |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Do you want Northern Ireland to remain part of the United Kingdom? | **591,820** | **98.90** |
| Do you want Northern Ireland to be joined with the Republic of Ireland outside the United Kingdom? | 6,423 | 1.10 |
| Valid votes | 598,283 | 99.01 |
| Invalid or blank votes | 5,973 | 0.99 |
| **Total votes** | **604,256** | **100.00** |
|
| Registered voters/turnout | 1,030,084 | 58.66 |
|

The vote resulted in an overwhelming majority of those who voted stating they wished to remain in the UK. The nationalist boycott contributed to a turnout of only 58.7% of the electorate. In addition to taking a majority of votes cast, the UK option received the support of 57.5% of the total electorate. According to the BBC, less than 1% of the Catholic population turned out to vote.

## Reactions

The Government of the United Kingdom took no action on receipt of the referendum result, as the result was in favour of the status quo (Northern Ireland remaining part of the UK). It was followed by an Assembly election on 28 June 1973.

Brian Faulkner, who had been the last Prime Minister of Northern Ireland, claimed the result left "no doubt in any one's mind what the wishes of Ulster's people are. Despite an attempted boycott by some, almost 600,000 electors voted for the maintenance of the union with Great Britain". He also claimed that the poll showed that a "quarter of the \[N.I.\] Catholic population who voted ... voted for the maintenance of the union" and that the result was a "blow ... against IRA mythology".

title: Union dues

abstract: Union dues are regular payments made by workers which grant membership of a trade union. Dues fund the provision of union services such as representation in collective bargaining and education activities. Nearly all unions require their members to pay dues. Dues can be collected directly or indirectly from workers; in the case of indirect collection this is often through a check-off where a worker authorises an employer to transfer the membership dues, from their wages, to their trade union.

# Union dues

**Union dues** are regular payments made by workers which grant membership of a trade union. Dues fund the provision of union services such as representation in collective bargaining and education activities. Nearly all unions require their members to pay dues. Dues can be collected directly or indirectly from workers; in the case of indirect collection this is often through a **check-off** where a worker authorises an employer to transfer the membership dues, from their wages, to their trade union.

## Variation

Many union members pay union dues out of their wages, although some unions collect dues separately from the paycheck. Union dues may be used to support a wide variety of programs or activities, including negotiating contracts; paying the salaries and benefits of union leaders and staff; union governance; legal representation; legislative lobbying (Members Dues money paid are never used for political campaigns, that is illegal. Many contribute their own money voluntarily to a labor related PAC Fund); pension, health, welfare and safety funds and the union strike fund. The expenditure of dues is then authorized either by the local union meeting or by the elected leaders of a union.

Dues are different from fees and assessments. Fees are generally one-time-only payments made by the union member to the union to cover the administration of ongoing programs or activities. One example is the initiation fee, a fee charged by the union to the worker when the employee first joins the union. The initiation fee covers the administrative costs of joining the union. Fees may, however, be ongoing. For example, a union program (such as a welfare or benefit fund) may be offered only to those union members who pay a regular fee to participate in the fund. Most union workers pay a fee when they start working for a company.

Since participation in the fund is not a requirement of union membership, the payment qualifies as a fee payment and not a dues payment. Assessments are generally one-time-only payments made by the union member to the union to cover a special program or activity. These special programs may or may not be ongoing, and may or may not operate for a limited time or in a limited fashion. An example is an organizing assessment, a payment the union may levy on its members to establish a union organizing fund. Another example is a one-time-only assessment to establish a fund since the fund requires a large capital infusion to be established, the assessment is used to raise this money.

Many local unions are affiliated with municipal, provincial, state, regional or national bodies. Often, these bodies levy their own dues on local unions, and a union member's dues may include the dues these other union organizations impose.

The legal status of union dues may be regulated by law. Depending on each country's labor law or the kind of union security agreement permitted by law, not all dues may be collected from all members.

The level of union dues varies widely. Some unions collect a percentage of each worker's pay (which may be limited to base wages only or include additional pay such as overtime income). Others collect a percentage of each worker's pay, but the percentage itself varies on a sliding scale (with lower-paid workers paying a lower percentage). Some dues ("set-dues") may be set at a specific level. For example, "each worker must be 150 dollars per month." Some unions use a combination of percentage and "set-dues". Collection frequency also varies widely, and may be tied to the receipt of the paycheck or on a calendar basis (biweekly, monthly, or yearly).

Collection methods also exhibit wide variation. In industrialized countries the "dues checkoff" mechanism is commonplace, where the employer agrees to deduct all union dues, fees, and assessments automatically from each worker's pay-check and transmit the funds to the union on a regular basis. Many unions, however, collect dues from workers directly. For example, the Industrial Workers of the World prohibit employers to collect dues on its behalf through their constitution.

# Steven Lane

**Steven D. Lane** is an American NASCAR crew chief, team owner and an American professional stock car racing driver. He is employed at his own team of On Point Motorsports as the crew chief for Tate Fogleman in the No. 30 Toyota Tundra. He has crew chiefed in NASCAR since 2000, and has been an owner in NASCAR since 2018.

## Racing career

### Crew chiefing career

#### Cup Series

Lane started crew chiefing in 2000 in the NASCAR Winston Cup Series with Jeremy Mayfield scoring a strong 2nd-place finish at Phoenix Raceway, he caught the attention of Kyle Petty however after the 2nd with Mayfield he would go into a slump not scoring another top ten in the Cup Series until 2006 at Watkins Glen International with Scott Pruett. After that he would bounce to the drivers of the No. 40 at Chip Ganassi Racing scoring a best finish of 8th at Talladega with David Stremme.

In 2009 he would jump to new team Front Row Motorsports with John Andretti in the No. 34 scoring a beat finish of 16th at Loudon. He would then jump ship once again to Robby Gordon Motorsports in 2011 scoring a best finish of 16th at Daytona in July with Robby Gordon.

Halfway through the 2011 season he would leave Robby Gordon Motorsports and join Swan Racing (then Inception Motorsports) where he would stay until 2014 having one top 15 with David Stremme at Talladega where they would finish 12th. He would have one last race with Swan in Swan's final race at Richmond Raceway with J. J. Yeley finishing 40th. Steven would follow J.J. to Team Xtreme Racing and stay until midway through 2014 after poor performance from Yeley where their best finish was a 34th.

Steven made one final cup stint as a crew chief for Randy Humphrey Racing scoring a best finish of 26th at Watkins Glen International with Nelson Piquet Jr. in Nelson's one and only Cup start. His final Cup crew chiefing effort came at Charlotte with Corey LaJoie where they would finish 35th.

#### Xfinity Series

Lane's first Xfinity race as a crew chief came in 2015 at Daytona with Eric McClure where he finished 17th, he stayed until the 10th race of the season at Talladega where they finished 21st, Lane returned with Kyle Fowler at Charlotte where they finished 27th, after Charlotte Steven took a short break and returned at Daytona with longtime driver-crew chief pairing J. J. Yeley where they would finish 20th. In a shock to everyone the next race at Kentucky with the combination of Lane and Yeley they would win the pole and finish 18th, this would lead JGL to put Lane in the car with Yeley for the rest of the season where they would rack up 14 top 20's and 4 top 15's.

In 2016 Yeley split from JGL leaving Lane at JGL with new driver Dakoda Armstrong, they performed on a decent level but would split for 4 races however partner backup midway through at Pocono and finish 18th, this led JGL to partner them back up after Iowa for the rest of the season except for the races Dakoda was in with Joe Gibbs Racing in the No. 18, they would rack up 15 top 20's and 3 top 15's.

In 2017 he and Armstrong were slated for a full season where they would score 2 top 10's and two top 5's while also scoring his first top 5 since the year 2000 in his Cup debut with Jeremy Mayfield at Phoenix and would score a best finish of 3rd place at Daytona. They split up after Dakoda barely missed the playoffs, He would bounce back to the No. 24 car for JGL with Corey LaJoie and Dylan Lupton where he would score 4 top 20's and 2 top 15's.

He returned in 2018 for what would be JGL's final season with Dylan Lupton and Tony Mrakovich scoring 2 top 25's with Lupton and having 1 top 25 with Mrakovich.

In July 2018 Lane started his own team called On Point Motorsports, he made his first start at Bristol with Scott Lagasse Jr. where they would finish 31st. The team returned at Las Vegas with returning driver Austin Theriault where they would finish 8th after avoiding numerous wrecks. Lagasse returned at Talladega where he would finish 18th. Lane hired Jeb Burton to drive at Martinsville and Homestead where he would finish 15th and 18th respectively.
