== What is a Legal term of Art? == |
|||
'''The Calumet Theatre''' is a historical theatre in the town of [[Calumet, Michigan]], opened on [[March 29]], [[1900]], with the show "[[The Highwaymen]]", on tour from [[Broadway theatre|Broadway]]. The theatre soon attracted attention from America's finest actors, actresses, and other theatre greats, such as [[Frank Morgan]] (later famous for his roles in ''The Wizard of Oz''), [[Douglas Fairbanks, Sr.]], [[Lon Chaney, Sr.]], [[John Philip Sousa]], [[Sarah Bernhardt]], and Madame [[Helena Modjeska]] (see below), among others. |
|||
A term of art is a precise word or phrase used by professionals in a certain subject area. |
|||
As time wore on, the theatre began to lose popularity, due mostly to the decline of the local economy and the increasing popularity of movies. Starting at this time, the theatre converted to a motion-picture house, serving in this medium until the 1950s. Summer stock theatre was brought back to the Calumet Theater in 1958 , and performed there every summer until 1968 . The auditorium was restored in 1975. The exterior of the theatre was restored in the years 1988-1989. |

Today, the Calumet Theatre is home to as many as 80 theatre-related events a year. An estimated 30,000 people visit the theatre every year in these events. The staff consists mostly of volunteers, though there are five full-time staff members. The Calumet Theatre is also a [[National Historic Landmark]]. |

The expression "Legal Term of Art," therefore, means a term used by attorneys in certain areas. Thus, for example, the term "reliance" is used to express actions taken based on an "assurance" in a "contract." Reliance is not stated as "this thing I did because some guy promised me he would pay me if I did X." |

==Ghost stories== |
|||
The term "Detainee" fits into this category, as it defines a group of individuals who are presently being incarcerated in GITMO. They are afforded protections under the '''Detainee''' Protection Act of 2005: |

Some of the visitors to the Calumet Theatre hope to catch a glimpse of the reputed ghost of the theatre, [[Madame Modjeska|Madame Helena Modjeska]]. The story of the ghost first emerged in 1958 , when an actress named [[Adysse Lane]] claimed that the ghost of Madame Modjeska appeared to her during a performance when Lane had forgotten her lines. Since then, it is said that Madame Modjeska is seen in the actors' dressing rooms, and her presence is felt in the vicinity of her portraits. |
|||
Also there has been several reports of a hostile presence in the dressing rooms. |

The choice of verbage is not happenstance. The persons who fall under this category meet a very special definition under the law. They are not "prisoners," because they are not American Citizens, nor are the Prisoner of War. Their status is, instead, as "detainees" of the Department of Defense. Thus, they are under military detention, not afforded the status of military prisoners of war under the Geneva Convention as irregular combatants, and the term applies solely to persons meeting this definition as a class. |

I can only hope this fully, and completely, explains the legal term of art "Detainee." |

That's good, I saw it. I also saw your statement on the Auschwitz piece that I deleted. It was just too over the top. No matter your political persuasion, I really doubt the Auschwitz slogan inspired the American leadership at the time to adopt the motto.

Geo swan is a good lad, he can be over the top some times (like this time), but he knows a hell of a lot on gitmo. [[User talk:Hypnosadist|<small><sup><font color="#000">(<font color="#c20">Hypnosadist</font>)</font></sup></small>]] 04:52, 23 September 2008 (UTC) |

He can be a bit overzealous in his convictions, which is why we butt heads, but he writes some good articles when he does so in a neutral manner and uses solid sources. [[User:Yachtsman1|Yachtsman1]] ([[User talk:Yachtsman1#top|talk]]) 04:56, 23 September 2008 (UTC) |

Thank you sooooooo much for your help on the article. I feel like I am the only person who gives two hoots about Loyola's page. I've made some improvements, (some mistakes as well), bit its a shame that the article is so poor. Georgetown's article is worlds away from ours. Anywho, I'm only a sophomore undergrad, but I do my best. [[Special:Contributions/144.126.196.135|144.126.196.135]] ([[User talk:144.126.196.135|talk]]) 16:42, 13 October 2008 (UTC) |

That's alright, I'll be helping from here on out. I studied under Dr. Devries, and was one of his thesis students. I would be interested in any materials that can be used to improve it, aside from the website.
