## Features

The compilation plays similarly on all three consoles, but the Xbox version has the extra ability to upload scores to an online scoreboard. The special features on each version of the game are the same. These include game histories, developer interviews and other documents. This compilation is a combination of the games included in *Williams Arcade's Greatest Hits*, *Midway's Greatest Arcade Hits*, and *Arcade Party Pak* for the original PlayStation and PC and each contain exactly the same extras from those collections. Additionally, there are eleven more games included that are not found in those collections.

While the PlayStation 2 and GameCube versions can be played on the earliest models of the PlayStation 3 and Wii respectively (due to their backwards compatibility), the Xbox version is not Xbox 360 compatible.

## Games

The collection consists of the following 24 arcade games:

## Reception

Criticisms are the poor menu layout, slowdown in *Smash TV*, for the documentaries and interviews having video quality that is grainy and unrestored, as well as the documentaries and interviews being rehashed from previous Midway collections.

*Midway Arcade Treasures* also received mixed and positive reviews from review aggregator *Metacritic*, with a score of 76 for the *PlayStation 2* version, a score of 74 for the *Xbox* version, and the lowest being a score of 72 for the *GameCube* version. The reviews were mostly the same as *GameRankings*, stating the game's positive and negative points. Many of the complaints were based on the DVD content having poor, and stuttering quality, the menu being not pleasant to look at, and some of the games being difficult to control (with *Vindicators* as the main point of focus). Reviewers concluded that the collection was worth getting.

The compilation sold more than 1 million units by August 2005.

# Midway site

**The Midway Site** (47LC19) is a prehistoric Upper Mississippian Oneota site in La Crosse County, Wisconsin. It is located about 10 miles north of LaCrosse near the juncture of the Black and Mississippi Rivers.

## History of archaeological investigations

The site was first excavated in the early 1920s by Dr. A.H. Sanford of the La Crosse State College (now the University of Wisconsin–La Crosse), and again in 1929 by W.C. McKern, under the auspices of the Milwaukee Public Museum. Further excavations took place in 1964 by Guy Gibbon under the auspices of the University of Illinois.

## Results of 1964 Excavations

Excavations at the site yielded Prehistoric artifacts, pit features, animal bone, plant remains and a burial.

### Structures and Features

15 features were reported at the site, of which 14 were prehistoric (the 15th was a modern era pig burial). 12 were designated as “refuse pits” and contained animal bone, stone tools and debitage, pottery sherds and charcoal. There was also one burial and one mussel shell heap.

### Animal Remains

Remains from several species were recovered from the site. The main species present were deer, beaver, porcupine, dog, bear, elk, bison, mussels, catfish and bowfin. These remains were not modified into tools like the bone tools described in the Artifacts section below, and may be considered food remains or, in the case of the dog and bear, possibly the remains of ceremonial activities. Dog sacrifice and dog meat consumption was observed to have ceremonial and religious implications in early Native American tribes. Bear worship and ceremonialism has also been recorded in the ethnological record.

### Plant Remains

Several fragments of food plant remains were recovered from the site, including maize, beans, acorn and hickory nut shell, and plum pits. Some wood charcoal taken from a pit feature was identified as oak.

### Artifacts

#### Pottery Artifacts

Archaeologists often find pottery to be a very useful tool in analyzing a prehistoric culture. It is usually very plentiful at a site and the details of manufacture and decoration are very sensitive indicators of time, space and culture.

No whole or reconstructable vessels were recovered from the site, so the analysis was based upon examination of rim and body sherds. A total of 3,283 sherds was recovered, of which 98.3% were shell-tempered. The remaining 1.7% was grit-tempered and interpreted to be representative of the earlier Woodland period.

The pottery consists of globular vessels with restricted orifices, smooth surface finish, everted rim profiles and rounded lips. Handles were sometimes present. Decoration was applied to the lip top, inside lip and the area from the neck to shoulder. Decorative techniques consisted of vertical and/or diagonal lines arranged in patterns such as chevrons, sometimes combined with punctates.

Three pottery types were noted. They are described below:

* Allamakee Trailed - this type was defined at the Upper Iowa River Oneota Site Complex and is the dominant pottery type at Midway. The characteristics described above primarily apply to this type.
* Red Banks Punctate - this type includes vessels decorated with groups of incised diagonal lines with punctates in the spaces between lines.
* Koshkonong Bold - consists of vessels with finger trailed decoration applied to the shoulder area; first defined at Carcajou Point.

#### Other Artifacts

Non-pottery artifacts recovered from the site included:

* Chipped stone artifacts - including 24 projectile points, 13 knives, 92 end scrapers, 22 side scrapers, 9 cores and 3 hammerstones. Of the projectile points, the most numerous category (20) was the small triangular Madison point.
* Ground stone artifacts - including 4 abrading stones, 1 grinding stone and 3 catlinite fragments
* Bone artifacts - including 1 bison scapula hoe, 1 worked swan humerus and 1 worked deer metapodial
* Copper artifacts- including 1 ring, 1 perforator and 5 sheet copper fragments

The non-pottery artifacts found at an archaeological site can provide useful cultural context as well as a glimpse into the domestic tasks performed at a site; ceremonial or religious activities; recreational activities; and clothing or personal adornment.

Some of the most prominent and diagnostic non-pottery artifacts are presented here in more detail:

| Material | Description | Image | Qty | Function / use | Comments / associations |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Chipped stone | Small triangular points (aka Madison points) |  | 24 | Hunting/fishing/warfare | Also known as “arrowheads”; are thought to be arrow-tips for bows-and-arrows. The usage of the bow-and-arrow seems to have greatly increased during the Late Woodland, probably as a result of increased conflict. |
| Chipped stone | Biface blades/knives |  | 1 whole, 12 fragmentary | Domestic function / cutting applications | Typical of Upper Mississippian sites, particularly Huber and Oneota (Orr focus) |
| Chipped stone | End scraper |  | 92 | Domestic function / processing wood or hides | Typical of Upper Mississippian sites, particularly Huber and Oneota (Orr focus); at Midway they are far more numerous than projectile points |
| Stone | Arrow shaft straightener |  | 4 | Domestic function / straightening arrow shafts for bows-and-arrows | Typical at Upper Mississippian sites |
|

## Orr focus

The Orr focus is a regional manifestation of the Upper Mississippian Oneota cultures which were present throughout the American Midwest in the late Prehistoric and Protohistoric to early Historic periods. The subsistence base of the Orr focus people, like most Upper Mississippians, was primarily agricultural supplemented by hunting, fishing and gathering.

The Orr focus is distinctive from other Oneota Foci mainly in terms of the pottery which is based on rectilinear (instead of curvilinear) decoration and frequent notching on the lip. This pottery was first noted at the Upper Iowa River Oneota Site Complex and was designated Allamakee Trailed.

It has been pointed out that the Huber Phase pottery (from the Chicago area) very closely resembles Orr focus. Specifically, Huber Trailed is thought to be a very similar type to Allamakee Trailed. Huber Trailed has rectilinear patterns, lip notching and very similar vessel form to Allamakee Trailed. A detailed comparison of pottery from a Huber site (Oak Forest) and at the Midway site did reveal some differences between them: the lips on Orr pottery were almost always rounded, which Huber lips could be rounded, flattened or beveled; the rim profiles on the Orr pottery were almost always vertical while the Huber pottery more often had inward or outward curve; the Huber necks were more often angular while the Orr necks were more often curved; and trailed lines were more often to be combined with punctate decoration on Orr than Huber.

Both Orr focus and Huber have been dated to the late Prehistoric to Protohistoric to early Historic periods. European trade goods have been recovered from the Upper Iowa River Oneota Site Complex, but not from Midway. Therefore, it is thought that Midway is slightly older than the Iowa River sites. There are no radiocarbon dates from Midway, but Gibbon estimated the occupation to be around A.D. 1500.

The Orr focus sites are located in the same area that the early French explorers and fur traders found the Ioway Native American tribe. Archaeologists are in general agreement that the Orr Phase pottery represents the Prehistoric cultural remains of the Ioway tribe, as well as the closely related Otoe tribe.

## Significance

The Midway Site is a late Oneota site affiliated with the Orr focus. The pottery at Orr focus sites differs from earlier Oneota such as Koshkonong focus and Grand River focus based on details in the pottery; Orr focus pottery has fine incised straight line decoration on smooth surface, compared to the earlier forms which are based on curvilinear patterns with wider lines.

The evidence from plant and animal remains was not enough to make a firm determination on the seasonality of occupation at Midway, but based on the presence of a bison scapula hoe and cultivated plants (maize and beans) it was thought to be at least a semi-sendentary village site, if not year-round.

# Mike Denbrock

**Michael Fredrick Denbrock** (born January 29, 1964) is an American football coach who is the offensive coordinator and tight ends coach of the Notre Dame Fighting Irish. He has previously coached for the Illinois State Redbirds, Grand Valley State Lakers, Stanford Cardinal, Washington Huskies, Indiana State Sycamores, Cincinnati Bearcats, and LSU Tigers. He also coached in the Arena Football League (AFL) with the Buffalo Destroyers.

## Early coaching career

After graduating from Grand Valley State University in 1985 with a degree in communications, Denbrock returned to Grand Valley State as a graduate assistant, working with the offensive tackles and tight ends. In 1987, he first worked with Brian Kelly, who assisted with the defensive backs in his first season as a graduate assistant.

After two years, Denbrock moved on to Michigan State University where he helped with the quarterbacks and receivers on the 1988 Spartan squad that was selected for the Gator Bowl. The following season, he was moved to help with the offensive line as a graduate assistant on the 1989 team that played in the Aloha Bowl. His first full-time coaching assignment came in 1990, when he coached at Illinois State University, working with the offensive tackles and tight ends through.

In 1992, he returned to Grand Valley State, serving under Kelly, who was now head football coach. From 1992 to 1995, Denbrock was offensive coordinator, coaching the quarterbacks and wide receivers. His offense was first in the Midwest Intercollegiate Football Conference (MIFC) in both total yards and scoring offense from 1992 to 1994. He moved to defensive coordinator and linebackers coach from 1996 to 1998, where his defense ranked among the nation's top 30 in total defense, scoring defense and rushing defense each season. In 1996, his defense led the MIFC in scoring and total defense.

## Buffalo Destroyers

In 1999, he was part of the inaugural coaching staff for the Buffalo Destroyers of the Arena Football League (AFL). From 1999 to 2000, he held various coaching positions including associate head coach, defensive coordinator, as well as coaching the offensive and defensive lines. In his first season, his defense finished third in the league in both scoring and total defense, while in 2000, Denbrock helped the Destroyers land a playoff berth after a mid-season coaching change, where coach Dave Whinham was fired, being replaced by former NFL linebacker Ray Bentley.

## Return to college coaching

Denbrock returned to the college ranks in 2001, working with the offensive tackles and tight ends at Stanford University. His line helped lead the way for a Stanford rushing attack which ranked 23rd in the nation, averaging more than 200 yards per game and scoring 27 touchdowns.

### First stint at Notre Dame

In 2002, Denbrock was hired at the University of Notre Dame, to coach offensive tackles and tight ends. He was hired by then new coach Tyrone Willingham, whom Denbrock served under at Stanford. From 2002 to 2004, Denbrock's offensive tackles and tight ends were big factors as the Irish produced 1,000-yard rushers in 2002 (Ryan Grant) and 2003 (Julius Jones). He also coached several players who later went onto NFL careers, including offensive linemen Ryan Harris, Jim Molinaro, Jordan Black and Brennan Curtin plus tight ends Anthony Fasano, Jerome Collins and John Carlson. Following Willingham's termination in 2004, new head coach Charlie Weis did not renew Denbrock's contract.

### Other coaching destinations

In 2005, he was hired by the University of Washington to coach the offensive line, a position he held until 2008. In 2007, the Husky line helped running back Louis Rankin become the first 1,000-yard rusher at Washington since 1997. In 2009, Denbrock was hired by Indiana State University as the special teams coordinator, linebackers coach and associate head coach.

### Second stint at Notre Dame

In 2010, Denbrock was hired by Brian Kelly, as he put together his inaugural coaching staff for the Irish. He spent the next two seasons coaching the tight ends, playing a major role in the development of future NFL tight ends Kyle Rudolph and Tyler Eifert. In 2011, Eifert was named a finalist for the Mackey Award, presented annually to college football's most outstanding tight end. Denbrock transitioned to coach the outside wide receivers and served as passing game coordinator in 2012 and 2013. Following the departure of offensive coordinator Chuck Martin to Miami University, Denbrock was named interim offensive coordinator for the 2013 Pinstripe Bowl vs Rutgers. On January 30, 2014, Denbrock was officially promoted to offensive coordinator.

### Cincinnati Bearcats

On January 17, 2017, Luke Fickell, head football coach at University of Cincinnati, announced Denbrock as offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach for the Cincinnati Bearcats. Denbrock counts eight NFL draft picks among his pupils, including a pair of Notre Dame tight ends with Cincinnati ties, the Cincinnati Bengals' draftee Tyler Eifert and Cincinnati-native Kyle Rudolph, who was drafted by the Minnesota Vikings.

### LSU Tigers

Following Cincinnati's 2021 loss in the College Football Playoff to Alabama, it was announced that Denbrock would be reuniting with Brian Kelly at LSU as the offensive coordinator and tight ends coach. During the 2023 season, the Tigers offense had the top scoring and yards per game as well as that season's Heisman Trophy winning-quarterback, Jayden Daniels.

### Third stint at Notre Dame

Denbrock would leave the LSU Tigers at the end of 2023 to return to Notre Dame as Offensive Coordinator under head coach Marcus Freeman.

title: Mihály Csokonai

abstract: Mihály Csokonai was a Hungarian poet, a leading figure in the Hungarian literary revival of the Enlightenment. Having been educated in Debrecen, where he was born, Csokonai was appointed while still very young to the professorship of poetry there. Shortly thereafter he was deprived of the post on account of the immorality of his conduct. The remaining twelve years of his short life were passed in almost constant wretchedness, and he died in his native town, in his mother's house, when only thirty-one years of age. Csokonai was a genial and original poet, with something of the lyrical fire of Sándor Petőfi, and wrote a mock-heroic poem called Dorottya or the Triumph of the Ladies at the Carnival, two or three comedies or farces, and a number of love-poems. Most of his works have been published by Schedel (1844–1847).

Having been educated in Debrecen, where he was born, Csokonai was appointed while still very young to the professorship of poetry there. Shortly thereafter he was deprived of the post on account of the immorality of his conduct.

The remaining twelve years of his short life were passed in almost constant wretchedness, and he died in his native town, in his mother's house, when only thirty-one years of age.

Csokonai was a genial and original poet, with something of the lyrical fire of Sándor Petőfi, and wrote a mock-heroic poem called *Dorottya* or the *Triumph of the Ladies at the Carnival*, two or three comedies or farces, and a number of love-poems. Most of his works have been published by Schedel (1844–1847).

At its peak, the company had about 300 employees and had offices in various other cities around the world. It went bankrupt in 2009.

## Products

Some of the slot machine game themes produced by Mikohn Gaming included several that were based on well-known brands, including:

The *Garfield* game faced some criticism over the potential for it inappropriately appealing to children.

## Timeline

* 1986: Mikohn is founded in Las Vegas, Nevada.
* 2005: Mikohn is restructured and renamed to Progressive Gaming International Corporation (PGIC), and was listed on NASDAQ with the trading symbol PGIC. Part of the restructuring included buying VirtGame, a company that made slot machines using a central server-based system architecture with downloadable content, for $20 million in stock swap value. At its peak, the company had about 300 employees and had offices in various other cities around the world.
* 2006: PGIC introduces Rapid Bet Live, a system for live real-time sports and race betting that supports betting on details within ongoing games, launching the system at The Palms Hotel and Casino, where it proves popular. The system receives the "Product of the Year Award for 2006" by *Casino Journal* and is extended to support wireless mobile betting devices.
* 2007 PGIC's Rapid Bet Live system is pulled out from The Palms without explanation.
* 2007: After failing to prevail in litigation against the game maker Derek Webb in which it had alleged patent rights violations by Webb's Three Card Poker game, PGIC agrees to pay a $20 million settlement for alleged anticompetitive behavior in attempting to enforce patent rights claims that were not valid.
* 2007: PGIC's Table Games Division, including the rights to all of PGIC's specialty table game titles, is sold to Shuffle Master for an upfront payment of $23.4 million and future payments, with an estimated net value between $37.4 million and $46.5 million.
* 2008: Having difficulty maintaining compliance with regulatory requirements for public trading amidst a general slowdown of the gaming industry during the Great Recession, PGIC conducts a 1-to-8 reverse stock split.
* 2009: PGIC files for Chapter 7 bankruptcy, listing assets of $263,600 and unsecured debts of $5.6 million. Most of the company's assets had been sold to International Game Technology (IGT) in a foreclosure sale just before the bankruptcy declaration. The company's largest unsecured creditor was Hasbro, to which it owed $1 million from a 2007 lawsuit settlement.
