	Dyke (lesbian) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Dyke or dike is a slang term for a lesbian.
		In addition, the word "dyke" is preferred by some because it can encompass bisexual and transgender women, by contrast to the word "lesbian".
		A dyke bar is a term used to describe any bar or club in which lesbians often attend, but can also indicate a "tougher" establishment (in terms of the patrons or environment).

	Offa's Dyke - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Sir Cyril Fox completed the first major survey of the Dyke (Fox 1955), and, in agreement with Asser, saw the Dyke as running from the estuary of the River Dee in the north to the River Wye in the south (approximately 150 miles, or 240 km).
		Noble also was vital in establishing the Offa's Dyke Association, which maintains the Offa's Dyke Path, a footpath which mostly follows the route of the dyke, which is one of the designated British National Trails.
		Dykes in the far north and south may date differently, and though they may be connected with Offa's Dyke, there is as yet no compelling evidence behind this.

		At roughly 8 square kilometers, Jost Van Dyke is the smallest of the four main islands of the British Virgin Islands, the northern portion of the archipelago of the Virgin Islands, located in the Atlantic Ocean and Caribbean Sea.

		Although the island is small, Jost Van Dyke boasts several notable natives, including William Thornton, architect of the U.S. Capitol Building, and John C. Lettsome (of Little Jost), founder of the London Medical Society.

	Dyke Marsh
		Dyke Marsh, which is believed to have formed 5,000 - 7,000 years ago, is unique in that it represents the largest remaining piece of freshwater tidal wetlands in the Washington Metropolitan area.
		It is estimated that Dyke Marsh once consisted of 650 acres; dredging done during the 1950's and 60's led to the current size and configuration of the marsh.
		The marsh itself is not immune to exotics, yellow iris and the common reed are present and efforts are being made to prevent the introduction of purple loosestrife.

	Dyke, Greg
		Unlike most BBC executives, Dyke was a sixteen year old school leaver who had a varied career after leaving grammar school at age 16: he worked for various local papers, gained a politics degree at York University as a mature student, and became campaign organizer for Wandsworth Council of Community Relations.
		Dyke took the ailing breakfast show down-market, signalling this move with the introduction of bingo numbers, horoscopes and a gormless puppet called Roland Rat.
		Dyke eventually resigned from TV-AM over budget cuts, and was quickly snapped up by Television South as director of programs, from where he returned to LWT as director of programs, and then chief executive.

		After that incident, Van Dyke was looked on as a spiritual sage, big brother, and a parental figure by the rest of his fellow Motown studio musicians.
		During 1970, Van Dyke began to accompany mainstream lounge acts when they would appear in the Detroit area and began working with Freda Payne as her musical director.

	Dyke Village, Lincolnshire
		One of the strangest buildings in Dyke is the village hall, originally a green zinc World War One army hut that was moved to Dyke from Belton Park, near Grantham in 1920.
		In the 1970s, the small daughter of one regular visitor tossed a penny into the depths on every visit, closed her eyes and wished for a kitten, a wish that was eventually granted.
		This is the village green at Dyke although it is far too small to accommodate today's summer festivities that are now held on the nearby recreation ground, but it survives as a reminder of the way things were.

		So the show was retooled with Van Dyke as comedy writer Rob Petrie, the young Mary Tyler Moore as his wife, Rose Marie and Morey Amsterdam as Van Dyke's fellow comedy writers, and a small supporting role for Reiner as the Van Dyke character's obnoxious boss.
		Van Dyke has often said that his favorite comic was Stan Laurel, and like Laurel he had exquisite timing, an innate likability on-screen, a rubber face, and a mastery of pratfalls and slapstick.
		Van Dyke has spent his recent years in the company of Michelle Triola, who is famous for suing her former lover Lee Marvin, demanding and winning alimony -- "palimony" -- although they had never married.

		A total of 130 kilometers of dyke was constructed, assuming that all the sections of earthwork associated with the name Offa can be considered part of the same project.
		The labour of thousands of men was needed to build the dyke, proof that the kingdom of Mercia possesses a high degree of cohesion; in places it is absolutely straight for kilometers, proof of the technical skills of its designers.
		It is highly unlikely that the dyke marked the precise boundary between the two peoples; during the age of Offa, there were English communities to the west of it and Welsh communities to the east.

	Van Dyke, Dick
		Dick Van Dyke's entertainment career began during World War II when he participated in variety shows and worked as an announcer while serving in the military.
		Complementing Van Dyke was a veteran cast of talented comedic actors including Rose Marie, Morey Amsterdam, Jerry Paris, Carl Reiner (as Alan Brady), as well as a newcomer to television Mary Tyler Moore, who played Rob's wife Laura Petrie.
		The series created quite a stir when, in the early 1960s, husband and wife, though still sleeping in separate beds, were shown to actually have a physical relationship, and Mary Tyler Moore was even shown wearing Capri pants, unheard of at the time.

		The origins of the Dyke are shrouded in mystery so that many of its aspects are speculated upon rather than being fully understood.
		The Dyke appears to have been constructed in response to events in the border region involving the Princes of Powys, but whether it was intended as an agreed boundary, as a defensive structure with long lost additional fortifications, or for some other use, is not known.
		Much of the Dyke is still traceable along the 80 miles from the Wye valley to Wrexham.

	Dyke-Marsh: Section IV
		The area of Dyke Marsh in the vicinity of the Dyke Marsh Trail will continue to be impacted by the proliferation of social trails, trampling, and indiscriminate visitor use, and sensitive resources such as rare plants, nesting birds and wetland vegetation will continue to be adversely impacted.
		Enhanced opportunities for enjoyment of the Dyke Marsh area by the proposed action may result in the Dyke Marsh Trail and subsequent boardwalk areas becoming more popular and may therefore have the potential for increase illegal pet use in the area.
		Because the "Y" configuration of the boardwalk design may result in portions of each spur being visible from the other, it is possible that some visitors may attempt to shortcut "cross-country" between them, resulting in the development of social trails, trampling of vegetation including rare species and disruption of nesting birds and other wildlife.
