The Coolpix P80 is a digital camera manufactured and distributed by Nikon. It features 8.0 megapixels (effective), and a 8x optical/4x digital zoom. It is part of the Nikon Coolpix line of cameras.

From the NYT

At first glance, Nikon’s Coolpix P80, due out next month, looks a lot like a digital single-lens reflex camera. Look a little closer and you’ll see that the lens is a lightweight zoom fixed to the compact body. Look into the owner’s wallet and you will learn that the price was a lightweight $400, less than entry-level S.L.R.’s with interchangeable lenses. Instead of carrying several of those lenses to cover wide and long ranges — inviting dust and pollen onto the sensor during every lens change — you’ll have just one with this camera. But unlike many fixed zooms, this one has a huge range: it’s wide enough at 27 millimeters to capture a group in a living room, and long enough at 486 millimeters to read a baseball glove’s brand out on the diamond. The zoom’s range is too big for a regular glass viewfinder, so you compose by looking at a little digital picture through the eyepiece or the 2.7-inch screen on the back. That isn’t for everyone, but if you want the power of this 18X zoom, you’ll have to accept the compromise.

[edit] William A. Donohue temp workspace

[edit] Hollywood and Muslims

Donohue also faced criticism for other statements he made on Scarborough Country that concerned Hollywood in general. At an event in 2004 he proclaimed: "Hollywood likes anal sex. They like to see the public square without nativity scenes. I like families. I like children. They like abortions. I believe in traditional values and restraint. They believe in libertinism." [1]

On Scarborough Country, in 2006, while commenting on why mainstream American actors like Billy Zane and Gary Busey would star in an allegedly anti-American and anti-Semitic film like Valley of the Wolves Iraq, he went further, proclaiming, "Well, look, there are people in Hollywood, not all of them, but there are some people who are nothing more than harlots. They will do anything for the buck. They wouldn't care. If you asked them to sodomize their own mother in a movie, they would do so, and they would do it with a smile on their face." [2]

Donohue also condemned the Turkish officials, including the Prime Minister, who had praised the film. "In this country, we are civilized. We don't appreciate it when somebody sticks it to you in the name of freedom of speech, sir. We condemn it. But over there, they take the uncivilized approach. And then they wonder why so many people don't trust the Muslims when it comes to liberty, because they will abuse it. In this country, we prize freedom of religion. They abhor it." [2]

[edit] Controversial comments by Donohue

On occasion Donohue has made comments perceived as disparaging towards minority groups including Asian, Jewish, Black and gay people. This is held in tension with his stated mission as defending Catholic people against similar remarks.

According to language and messaging author and teacher Jeffrey Feldman, Donohue defines the mission of his organization not simply as a defender of the Catholic civil rights, but as an aggressive competitor to "gays, blacks and Jews."[3] In a 1995 letter to the Wall Street Journal in which Donohue criticized the movie "Priest" he explained "It is beyond dispute that Disney would not put its imprimatur on a flick that portrayed gays, African-Americans or Jews as depraved. And it surely wouldn't depict their depravity as a consequence of their heritage or lifestyle." and (we have) "learned from gays, blacks and Jews."[4]

American Catholic writer, James Martin countered that anti-Catholicism exists but is "clearly not as virulent or violent as the prejudice directed against blacks, Jews and gays" and "is simply not the scourge it once was, nor is it today as virulent as anti-Semitism, homophobia or racism."[5]


[edit] On Asians

On a September 25, 2002, appearance on MSNBC's Donahue hosted by Phil Donahue (no relation) William Donohue, illustrating how offensive an alleged anti-Catholic joke made by an Asian student was, hypothesized about a joke involving “a Columbia University ping pong team made of Asians” and used the anti-Asian slur gook eight times while debating the college student.[6][7]

Another NY Times article

[Mamalujo deleted with "Re Asians - Donohue was not making a slur but showing by analogy how the anti-Catholic acts (at Columbia) would be viewed if directed at Asians". I think we should see what if any criticism in the Asian community might exist although they would probably not print the slur word.] Benjiboi

[edit] On Jews

On a December 8, 2004 appearance on MSNBC's Scarborough Country, Donohue stated “Hollywood is controlled by secular Jews who hate Christianity in general and Catholicism in particular.” When challenged on his statements by Shmuley Boteach, who was also appearing on the program, Donohue shouted “Who's making the movies?! Who's making the movies?! Who's making the movies?! The Irishmen?!” He later added “I'm talking about secularists in Hollywood. They're not Rastafarians. They're Jews.” Later in the program, he was invited to disclaim Jewish blood guilt for the Crucifixion, but instead stated “It was the Puerto Ricans that did it.”[8]

[this section is compromised a bit by William A. Donohue#Scarborough Country appearances and allegations of anti-Semitism which would need to be cleaned-up as well (sigh) that section and this should be combined I think] Benjiboi

[edit] On gays

The use of homosexual to refer to gay and lesbian people is seen as pejorative[9] yet Donohue regularly and consistently uses the term. [10] [11]

On a February 27, 2004 appearance on MSNBC's Scarborough Country, Donohue said, “Name for me a book publishing company in this country, particularly in New York, which would allow you to publish a book which would tell the truth about the gay 'deathstyle'. There are certain things that the left won't tolerate. They are censorial at heart.”[12] On a April 11, 2005 appearance on MSNBC's Scarborough Country, Donohue said, “The gay community has yet to apologize to straight people for all the damage that they have done — for contaminating the blood supply in New York City and around the country. It seems to me that gay people in this country should apologize to the rest of the people.”[13] On October 13, 2005, he appeared on NBC's Today Show. While on the show he asserted that the Catholic priest abuse crisis was "a homosexual scandal, not a pedophilia scandal".[14]

Several of these references are unimpeachable sources. Several are from prestigious university presses, one from a scientific journal, and several are written by historians. In the following quotes, Harvard citation is used, with the author's name and page number in parenthesis after the quote to make it easy to discuss quotations without using long citations each time.

  1. "King James wrote textbooks to edify his children, but was less enthusiastic about spending time with them. He preferred his male companions, especially his lover and favourite George Villiers Duke of Buckingham" (Purkiss, p 15) [9]
  2. "The evidence of his correspondence and contemporary accounts have led some historians to conclude that the king was homosexual or bisexual. In fact, the issue is murky." (Bucholz, p 208) [10]
  3. In Basilikon Doron, James lists sodomy among crimes "ye are bound in conscience never to forgive" (Sharpe, p 171)
  4. "The same pattern repeated itself with these men [Carr and Villiers] as had earlier been the case with Esmé Stuart. The evidence suggests that both had a physical liaison with their sovereign". (Barroll and Cerasano (ed), p 239)
  5. "the King in his later years became besotted with (the Duke of Buckingham)" (Downing and Millman, p 29)
  6. "Willson viewed James's sexual relations with other men as a moral failing. He told his readers that this 'vice was common to many rulers and we need not be too shocked', but still 'the completeness of the King's surrender to it indicates a loosing of his moral fibre'." (Young, p 1, from Willson, p 337)
  7. "Throughout his youth, James was praised for his chastity, since he showed little interest in women; and after the loss of Lennox, he continued to prefer male company" (Croft, p ??)
  1. Young, Michael B. (2000) King James and the History of Homosexuality. New York: New York University Press. ISBN 978-0814796931. Young (a historian) says in his biography of James: "Our conclusions are of two sorts — those that pertain to James and those that pertain more generally to the history of homosexuality. To begin with James: he did have sex with his male favorites, and it is nonsense to deny it." (Young, p 135). From a review: "Professor Young pulls no such punches here. He very carefully traces the history of James' relationships, beginning with his earliest affairs in Scotland, in order to establish beyond any reasonable doubt that James I was actively involved in sexual relations with his young clients" [11].
  2. Crompton, Louis. (2003) Homosexuality & Civilization. Boston: Belknap/Harvard University Press. ISBN 978-0674011977. Not only is this from one of the most respected university presses, it won an award sponsored by the Foundation for the Scientific Study of Sexuality. Compton devotes a whole section on the the male partners of James I within the chapter on 16th & 17th century England. He said: "Amorous involvements with handsome male favorites were a recurring pattern in James's life." (Compton, p 382) Talking about the Duke of Lennox: "James was devastated by the loss of the man who had been his family, friend, lover, and mentor..." (Compton, p 384).

[edit] Naval Air Station New York

Following content lifted from Floyd Bennett Field

[edit] Non-commercial Activity

After the closure of Naval Air Station Rockaway across the inlet, a hangar at Floyd Bennett Field was dedicated as a Naval Air Reserve Base within the larger civilian facility. The New York City Police Department (NYPD) occupied a hangar for the world's first police aviation unit (fixed-wing at the time, eventually to become a fleet exclusively of helicopters). In addition, about 10 acres of Floyd Bennett Field along Jamaica Bay was set aside by the city on long-term lease to the United States Coast Guard (USCG) in 1936, for the creation of Air Station Brooklyn. During World War II, the civilian airfield was first leased and then sold to the US Navy, hosting several aviation units of the Atlantic Fleet, three submarine patrols squadrons, a scout observation service unit, and two Naval Air Transport Service squadrons (processing the majority of the aircraft destined for the European Theater). The noted pilot Eddie Schneider died in a training crash on the tarmac in 1940. Naval Air Station New York aircraft patrolled the Atlantic coastline and engaged Nazi U-Boats, sustaining casualties, though this information was kept from the public at the time. In addition, Navy WAVES (Women Accepted for Volunteer Exceptional Service) operated radio equipment out of the control tower, directing traffic at this busiest Naval Air Station in the nation, while others packed parachutes for use by aviators or served as aviation machinist mates (also known as “plane captains”). The Naval Air Station (NAS) also served as a base for the Air National Guard during the Cold War.

In the interim, commercial aviation in New York City moved to a new airport in Queens, which took advantage of the then-new Queens-Midtown Tunnel to Manhattan. That airport was quickly renamed LaGuardia Airport in recognition of that mayor's efforts to bring commercially-viable aviation to New York.

[edit] The National Park Service Acquires the Historic Airfield

NAS New York was deactivated in 1971 and most of the land transferred to the National Park Service (NPS) for inclusion in Gateway National Recreation Area, the majority of the remainder constituting the area occupied by Air Station Brooklyn officially transferred to the Coast Guard and no longer leased. Air Station Brooklyn was eventually decommissioned in 1998, and the majority of that land then transferred to the National Park Service (a small portion remained in the possession of the USCG parent agency at the time -- the US Department of Transportation -- and a Doppler radar tower placed there for use by nearby Kennedy International Airport). The NYPD moved their aviation operation from a historic hangar to the former Coast Guard air station facilities shortly afterward.

[edit] Runways

Runway 15-33: One of the original runways constructed in 1929, this 3,100 x 100-foot (30 m) concrete runway was lengthened to 3,500 feet (1,100 m) in 1936 It was then modified to become the 4,500 x 300-foot (91 m) taxiway T-10 in 1942. It runs parallel to the original hangars along Flatbush Avenue.

Runway 6-24 (Old): The second of the original two runways constructed in 1929, this 4,000 x 100-foot (30 m) concrete runway became taxiway T-1 and T-2 in 1942. It runs perpendicular to the original hangars along Flatbush Avenue, from the Administration Building/Control Tower to the more modern Hangar B.

Runway 6-24 (New): Constructed in 1942, this 5,000 x 300-foot (91 m) runway was lengthened to 6,000 feet (1,800 m) in 1952. It runs perpendicular to Flatbush Avenue on the North side of the field.

Runway 1-19: Constructed in 1936, this 3,500 x 150-foot (46 m) runway was lengthened to 5,000 x 300 feet (91 m) in 1942. It was again lengthened to 7,000 feet (2,100 m) at an unknown date and was the longest runway at the airport. It runs from the vicinity of the current main public entrance to the field at the South end of Flatbush Avenue, to the North corner of the field near the Mill Basin inlet.

Runway 12-30: Constructed in 1936, this 3,200 x 150-foot (46 m) runway was lengthened to 5,000 x 300 feet (91 m) in 1942. It was again lengthened to 5,500 feet (1,700 m) at an unknown date. It runs from the former Coast Guard Hangar to the Northwest corner of the field near Flatbush Avenue. For many years, the US Coast Guard used 2,500 feet (760 m) of this runway for helicopter operations. Now the NYPD Aviation Unit uses this same segment.
