Cookbook:Macaroni and Cheese (Vegan)

| Vegan cuisine | Pasta Recipes

Macaroni and nutritional yeast is a vegan alternative to macaroni and cheese.

Ingredients

 * 1 pound dry macaroni pasta
 * ½ cup margarine
 * ½ cup flour
 * 1 cup nutritional yeast flakes
 * 3 ½ cups water or rice milk, boiling
 * 1 ½ tsp salt
 * 1 ½ tsp garlic powder
 * 1 pinch of turmeric
 * 2 Tbsp soy sauce

Procedure

 * 1) Bring 4 quarts of water to a boil, add salt to taste, and add the macaroni.
 * 2) Melt the margarine over low heat. Beat in flour with a wire whisk. Continue to beat over medium heat until mixture is smooth and bubbly.
 * 3) Whisk in the 3 ½ cups water. Then, add salt, garlic powder, soy sauce, and turmeric to the liquid.

Talk:Web Design/Introductory algorithm challenges

Where do users post assignments?
I'm curious about how assignments are "graded" on Wikiversity. Where do assignments get posted? How are they graded (i.e. does everyone get to get a grade, and it is averaged, or...)? --James Tharpe 19:51, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
 * You have to be more specific. Wikiversity is experimenting with many types of learning activities for participants. What "assignments" are you interested in? --JWSchmidt 20:27, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Any and all! :-) I've had a lot of experience with algorithms so I thought I might review the responses (if any) to the assignments on this page (Introductory algorithm challenges). I found no responses but, more importantly, I found no instructions for what to do with the assignment once it has been completed. Additionally, there are no instructions for what do to with completed assignments that are posted (e.g. grade them). Is there a guide for this?
 * --James Tharpe 15:32, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
 * As far as I know you are entering uncharted waters here. The only thing I have seen so far for evaluation of answers is short answer quizzes with hidden answers until someone clicks for the answer.   You might check with User:Robert_Elliott to see what has been working for his film related classes such as storyboarding and script writing. Mirwin 16:06, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Post your answers here and someone might evaluate them?--Rayc 21:01, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

 * I'm just using these resources as part of a formal course - so, for example, I actually use these Intro Algorithm challenges as a classroom activity where we work in small groups. Posting the answers here would make it too easy to see before thinking yourself. I have tried using progressive hints in the past that are hidden until the user clicks to see the hint, but I can't find where I used them! I reckon progressive hints would be great for individuals. If there was some sort of "class" on wikiversity - I'd think an email group or even a separate wikiversity page for the class where they can organise and contribute their answers might be a goer? Michaelnelson 04:01, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
 * MichaelNelson, I put a subpage in with my algorythm at your first design challenge.  Feel free to delete it or move it to a page of student's responses; if you do not want your first time students stunting their growth by peeking instead of trying.  I am going to check the history file, someone did a great job putting these eight challenges together for new computer students.  Mirwin 12:17, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Glad you like them Mirwin :) I was trying to fill a need as most intro to programming type tutorials say they are "for the absolute beginner", but the way they are structured only really makes sense to a programmer. Had a look at your answer! Will post some comments there :)

Template talk:Campaignbox World War II

Needed?
Since we've got Template:WWIITheatre, I don't think we need this one. Oberiko 21:22, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

 * Actually, I would turn that one into normal campaignboxes instead. There's really no need to have these huge templates everywhere (although World War II is far worse in this regard). 02:08, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

 * I've started a discussion of this at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Military history/World War II task force, where hopefully more people will notice it and take part. Kirill Lokshin 02:29, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

Kirill you beat me to it. I was about to restore your version but you and I had an edit clash. :-) --Philip Baird Shearer 19:54, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

Yugoslavian front
The Yugoslavian Front (WWII) article is progressing nicely. It makes sense to divorce it from the Balkans Campaign, which focuses mainly on German and Italian invasions of Albania, Greece in Yugoslavia ending in 1941. Not sure if it needs to be this prominent. On one hand, it certainly was strategically important, as as large as some other parts of WWII linked to from this template. On the other hand, it would make sense to create a "Balkans sub-theater" article, which would branch out to the Balkans campaign, Yugoslav front, Greek Resistance, Allied operations in the area (air raids, eg on Ploesti), and Soviets entering the fray in 1944. Miranche 03:57, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
 * I agree aboutthe proposal for a "Balkans-Aegean sub-theater", including the 1940-41 Balkans Campaign, the Yugoslav and Greek Resistance movements, the Dodecanese Campaign, Special Operations, etc., as the current structure is too limited. Regards, Cplakidas 16:38, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

I went ahead and linked directly to World War II in Yugoslavia from the template, as it's a substantial article and it wasn't referenced anywhere from the main sub-theaters. It fits least uncomfortably under the Mediterranean and Middle East theatre, so I included it in that template as well. The Greek and Albanian resistance movements still await their inclusion. – MirancheT C 18:58, 28 August 2016 (UTC)

North West Europe?
When is it actually called this? Was Operation Dragoon part of the "North West Europe" campaign as well? The article is called western front, so why not "Western Front (1944-1945)"? john k (talk) 23:07, 2 May 2009 (UTC)

Ecuadoran-Peruvian war
I suggest it be deleted from the list of contemporaneous wars because, unlike the others, it bore no relation to WWII.<IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 01:15, 10 May 2009 (UTC)

 * Exactly what I was thinking, the Ecuadoran border conflict of 1941 has so relevance to WW2 other than they were fought at the same time. I am making changes now.--Az81964444 (talk) 07:20, 2 April 2010 (UTC)

Wikipedia 'experts' strike again
It seems to me that this 'information box' was created by someone uninformed on the definition of military campaign.

 * Poland - is a country! There were at least two campaigns
 * Phoney War - was part of the 1st Polish Campaign
 * Denmark & Norway - there were two campaigns affecting these countries
 * France & Benelux - was a theatre with at least two campaigns affecting these regions
 * Britain - is a country! There were separate air and naval campaigns
 * Balkans - is a region! There was a theatre in which there were at least three campaigns here: initial occupation, versus the partisans, and liberation
 * Yugoslav Front - was the partisan campaign (above)
 * Eastern Front - in fact is the German war against USSR, so a theatre, and included several campaigns seem from German and Soviet perspectives
 * Finland - is a country! There was a series of operations part of the German campaigns
 * Western Front (1944–45) - was a theatre with a series of campaigns

Asia & The Pacific

 * China - is a country! There was in fact a theatre that included several Japanese, Chinese and Allied campaigns
 * Pacific Ocean - is an ocean! In WW2 it was divided into several theatres, each included several campaigns
 * South-East Asia - is a region! There was a theatre with several campaigns
 * South West Pacific - is a region! There was a theatre within the Pacific Ocean
 * Japan - is a country! In the military sense it was subject to a naval, and air and a proposed ground campaigns
 * Manchuria (1945) - is a defunct state/region! The campaign conducted through it had objectives in China and Korea

Mediterranean, Middle East and Africa

Other Campaigns

 * Atlantic - is an ocean! There were several campaigns in its three regions
 * Strategic Bombing - is a type of air campaign! Several such campaigns were conducted by the major WW2 participants
 * America - comes in the North and South varieties, and are continents! Several campaigns can be listed here

Green Factory

The Green Factory is an office building located in Bundang-gu Seongnam-si of South Korea, and serves as the headquarters of Naver Corporation, a Korean internet content service company. The building was completed in March 2010, with 27 floors above ground and 7 floors underground.

The Green Factory's energy-saving features helped it win the acclaimed Good Design award in 2011. The building is also certified as 'Platinum' under the global green building design rating system LEED.

Planning and construction
The interior of the building was designed to provide as open an environment as possible, where the company's culture and values would be reflected. The intent was to create a working space which fosters better communication between employees.

Design
Green Factory’s office spaces are designed like pods, which focus on a central open meeting area. Most of the central meeting spaces have non-traditional furniture and match the casual theme represented throughout the rest of the interior.

Indoor facilities
Unlike the rest of the building, the first and second floors are open to the public. Facilities found in the lobby include the library, the magazine street, and the information desk.

The library provides a variety of books and encyclopedias, including a collection of around 16,000 thousand books from 38 countries over the world. The magazine street refers to an area furnished with bookshelves displaying 250 kinds of magazines, both in Korean and foreign languages, with various different categories including fashion, beauty, sports, leisure, IT, cooking, business, economy, and so on. Visitors also have access to a cafe selling beverages and snacks, as well as a store selling character products made by Naver and Line. Part of the profits go to organizations that support the disabled.

The Connect Hall, which is located on the second floor, is a multipurpose auditorium for meetings, lectures, seminars, concerts, and weddings. The auditorium can accommodate up to 260 people, and has power sockets underneath each seat so that visitors can use their laptops freely.

The Green Factory also has an exercise center where professional trainers provides personalized workout programs for employees. Other facilities include a café, an outdoor terrace, a healthcare center, a shower room, a recovery room, and a massage room. On the same floor there is also a convenience store, a travel agency, an insurance agency, a postal service, and a help desk.

The emergency stairs sport different patterns and designs instead of the typical painted concrete finish. One side is themed like a park, and it is intended to have a peaceful and eco-friendly atmosphere with brighter lighting. The other side is designed like a track, encouraging employees to exercise by indicating the number of calories burnt.

Louvers
The steel and glass façade houses adjustable vertical louvers which restrict or allow sunlight to enter the building. The louvers are automatically closed and opened at times of sunrise and sunset, allowing the building to save energy. On special occasions, the façade displays different images such as the company's logo. Internal light is selectively blocked by a nocturnal automated louver system.

Maintenance
Green Factory was originally built as a working space for around 3,000 employees, but it is currently overpopulated, raising the necessity for an expansion. Naver has begun the construction of its second head office building adjacent to the current headquarters on a 120,000 square-meter site that it purchased from Seongnam city for 123.5 billion won (US$111 million).

Talk:Snake Pass

Tour of Britian
"sections have been used for semi-professional cycling races such as the Tour of Britain.". The ToB is a professional cycle race. There's no 'semi' about it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 14:09, 30 April 2015 (UTC)

NT owned?
Is the road really part of the NT's high peak estate, in the sense that the road is privately owned (as opposed to most normal roads, which are publicly owned)? --VinceBowdren 11:30, 20 March 2006 (UTC)

reply: The road is a normal public highway.

Trivia
Not convinced the Def Leppard and Human League information is encyclopaedic, so I plan to remove them unless somebody shouts now. --VinceBowdren 09:27, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

 * I definitely think The Human League information is encyclopaedic. Could you put it back please?  Cheers. —Preceding unsigned comment added by <IP_ADDRESS> (talk • contribs)

 * It counts as encyclopaedic only if it is verifiable. You are welcome to put it back if you have references showing it is verifiable --VinceBowdren 17:48, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

NPOV
"This section is exceptionally scenic—the view at the start of the descent into Glossop is quite remarkable, on a clear day offering beautiful views over the city of Manchester, which is 10 miles away."

I have removed this section of the article, as it appears to violate WP:NPOV <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 16:54, 6 December 2009 (UTC)

Dead links
A reasonable proportion of the citations appear to have disappeared since they were added (circa 2015?) and need fixing or replacing. For now, they are tagged as dead links. Mauls (talk) 12:52, 4 January 2021 (UTC)
 * I've fixed or replaced the dead links as appropriate. Mauls (talk) 17:21, 4 January 2021 (UTC)

Woodhead Tunnel
I can find no sources supporting the claim that the Woodhead line through the Woodhead Tunnel was closed in anticipation of any road schemes. Sources say it was closed due to the cost of upgrading it, and the availability of other rail routes. Mauls (talk) 17:23, 4 January 2021 (UTC)

 * See this. "It was proposed that one carriageway would go through the tunnel, with the other going “over” Woodhead on an improved alignment, which involved the construction of a large viaduct. A COBA (cost on benefit analysis) on these proposals was commissioned by the DoT back in the late 1970s/early 1980s, headed by Peter Hall. Needless to say, the COBA result came way off any reasonable amount for a road scheme." Ritchie333 (talk) (cont)  18:22, 4 January 2021 (UTC)

 * That doesn't say the tunnel was closed in anticipation of the road scheme, it says a scheme was proposed that would have used the tunnel (so the scheme was apparently in anticipation of the tunnel closure, not the reverse). Mauls (talk) 09:44, 5 January 2021 (UTC)

Gritting
The section on gritting was a bit confused. It made a claim that Snake Pass was a secondary route, which was not in the cited source, and not supported by other sources - Snake Pass is actually a primary route given priority for gritting. The report from High Peak council is in disagreement with this status quo. I have therefore amended this section so it clearly reflects this. Mauls (talk) 17:33, 4 January 2021 (UTC)
 * As seen here, the A57 between Mottram Moor and Sheffield is in red (a secondary route), while the A628 to the Flouch Inn, then the A616 is the primary route. This can be observed on the ground where signs at Mottram Moor read "Barnsley A628, Sheffield (A616)" in green (primary) against "Glossop A57" in white (non primary). Ritchie333 (talk) (cont)  18:25, 4 January 2021 (UTC)
 * The terms "primary" and "secondary" are not used equivalently by the different authorities responsible for road designation and gritting - this is shown on the Derbyshire County Council site, where even some unclassified roads (e.g through Edale) are classed as "primary" for gritting purposes. PaleCloudedWhite (talk) 18:56, 4 January 2021 (UTC)

I think it is evident that, although Derbyshire use (their own) primary and secondary classifications for gritting of roads, using these terms in the article could confuse readers, so I have changed to a more generic 'priority for gritting'. Mauls (talk) 10:05, 5 January 2021 (UTC)

Sheffield to Manchester motorway
The section about proposals for motorways between Manchester and Sheffield, unfortunately, remains a bit confused. For example, after the bit on the 1981 Woodhead Tunnel closure, and the costs, it says 'consequently' the proposal was abandoned. However, the 1979 Department of Transport reported by Commercial Trader is clear that any idea of a motorway on this route had already been dismissed. Similarly, the Hansard citation of Barbara Castle (then Minister of Transport) doesn't support there being an actual proposal for a motorway in 1965 - the questioner asks about a motorway, but the minister in response only says there has been a traffic survey into routes between the M1 and M6. This suggests it is pre-proposal. The Motorway Archive reference implies there was an intention in 1965 when the Hyde By-pass (M67) was being planned, that it would form part of a motorway to Sheffield. Basically, the timeline is very unclear, and the sources aren't great. Mauls (talk) 17:59, 4 January 2021 (UTC)
 * That's because idiots in the past threw out Steven Jukes' excellent ground-breaking research claiming Pathetic Motorways was an unreliable source, which is nonsense. His research comes from painstaking work in the National Archives, the London Metropolitan Archives and the Manchester Metropolitan Archives. What he doesn't know about the M67 isn't worth writing about. I can't ask the other subject expert I know, for reasons that should be obvious. Ritchie333 (talk)  (cont)  18:27, 4 January 2021 (UTC)
 * That's not ideal... I can't find any other decent sources than Pathetic Motorways. Could it be reworked much more simply, to say that the M67 that exists today was built with the intention of being part of a motorway to Sheffield (that is supported by the Motorway Archive source) and then have the more recent tunnel proposal (BBC source) as the latest interaction of an alternative route? That gets the heart of it across in a way that can be verified by references. Mauls (talk) 09:55, 5 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Is Roads.org.uk (formerly CBRD) a suitable source? It makes a fairly clear statement about Woodhead Tunnel so I've added that as a source. Mauls (talk) 11:12, 5 January 2021 (UTC)
 * I personally think it's an excellent and totally reliable source. More importantly, other reliable sources have said it's reliable (see refs at London_Ringways). I am certain that is where I found the original information and tried to plug in other references around it so editors wouldn't complain. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont)  13:34, 5 January 2021 (UTC)

Richard Edis

Richard John Smale Edis (1 September 1943 – 10 April 2002) was a British diplomat who served as UK High Commissioner to Mozambique, and UK ambassador to Tunisia, and Algeria.

Biography
Richard Edis was born on 1 September 1943 at Welwyn Garden City to Denis Edis and Sylvia (née Smale), was educated at King Edward's School, Birmingham, and read history at St Catharine's College, Cambridge.

Edis joined the Foreign Office and Her Majesty's Diplomatic Service in 1966, serving in Nairobi; and in New York City and Geneva at the United Nations.

He was appointed UK High Commissioner to Mozambique in 1992, at the time of the Rome General Peace Accords signed between the government of Mozambique and RENAMO, ending the 16-year long Mozambican Civil War; he is credited with helping - with other foreign missions - to keep the fragile peace, notably by his relationship with RENAMO leader Afonso Dhlakama. Multi-party elections held in 1994 ushered in a democratic period for the country; Edis played a key role by dissuading RENAMO and other opposition parties - aggrieved by electoral-technical issues - from declaring a boycott on the night before the poll. In 1995, Mozambique joined the Commonwealth of Nations. Edis was next posted as UK ambassador to Tunisia in 1995 through to 1999. His last posting was as UK ambassador to Algeria from 2001 to 2002.

Edis married Genevieve Cerisoles in 1971; the couple had three sons. He served, with his wife, as Special Constables with the Metropolitan Police during his UK postings.

He was made Companion of the Order of St Michael and St George in 1994.

He died on 10 April 2002. His sons Rupert and Jamyn established The Richard Edis Travel Award Fund at St Catharine's College, providing one or two students each year with substantial financial help to travel during vacations. Rupert Edis notes his belief that the great efforts his father made in Mozambique contributed to his early death.

Mabel Island (Franz Josef Land)

Mabel Island is an island in Franz Josef Land, Russia. Its area is 40 km².

History
This island was named by Benjamin Leigh Smith after his niece Amable Ludlow (1860–1939).

The southernmost headland of Mabel Island is Cape Konrad, named after Russian sailor Alexander Konrad, one of the only two survivors of the Brusilov expedition.

Geography
Mabel Island lies 4 km off Bruce Island's southwestern shore. The highest point is 356 m. Most of the island is covered by an ice cap, but an area at the southwestern side is unglacierized. Mys Pinegina is the headland on the eastern side.

Bates Channel is the roughly 4 km sound to the north and northeast of Mabel Island that separates it from Bruce Island. The sound in the western side, beyond which lies Zemlya Georga to the NW, is known as the Nightingale Channel (Proliv Naytingeyl).

Ostrov Bell (Остров Белл; Bell Island) is a smaller non glacierized island lying off Mabel Island's southwestern shore, separated from it by the Eyre Channel, a narrow sound of only 500 m in some places.

C Programming/Structs

Objective

 * Learn about structs and how to use them.
 * Declaring structs.
 * Defining structs.

Introduction
Structures allow objects of different types to be stored within one object. Let's say that you want to store a car's colour, maximum speed and registration number. We can define a structure that includes all that information.

First, include the header files required for  and  :

Define the structure:

Example of the structure being used:

Dynamic Structures
Along with being static, structures can also be dynamic. This means that they can be created and deleted at run time. An example is given below. OUTPUT This is a American Eskimo dog. The American Eskimo's name is Foxtrot. Foxtrot has a nice white coat. Foxtrot is 6 years old.

This is a German Shepherd dog. The German Shepherd's name is Delta. Delta has a nice tan with a black saddle coat. Delta is 3 years old.

This is a Tamaskan dog. The Tamaskan's name is Whiskey. Whiskey has a nice wolf grey coat. Whiskey is 2 years old.

It is now possible to do dynamic things with each  structure, although those operations could be a little advanced. Also notice the use of the arrow operator. This is a cleaner way of using pointers when working with structures. For example  is equal to. The arrow operator makes it easier when accessing nested structures.

Central European Midsummer Time

Central European Midsummer Time (CEMT) was a time zone three hours ahead of GMT, used as a double summer time in several European countries during the 1940s.

France
Some parts of France, but not Paris, observed Central European Midsummer Time in 1941–1945.

Germany
Central European Midsummer Time was used in occupied Germany from 11 May, 03:00 CEST to 29 June 1947, 03:00 CEMT.

According to GHEP, Berlin and the Soviet Occupation Zone observed midsummer time from 24 May 1945, 02:00 CET to 24 September 1945, 03:00 CEMT. Midsummer time was equivalent to Moscow Time, which did not observe DST then.

Previously kept in a discussion almost a year ago, this is a longtime advocacy group that continues to fail the test for multiple, non-trivial sources about the subject. One Bloomberg article, currently in the article, exists that talks about Citizens for Health in some form of substance, but the article itself is more about lobbying than the group, and the Washington Examiner piece barely discusses Citizens for Health at all.

Vallfogona de Riucorb

Vallfogona de Riucorb is a municipality and village in the comarca of the Conca de Barberà in central Catalonia, Spain. It is situated in the Comalats range in the north of the comarca, with the Cap de Cans rising to 759 m. Vallfogona village is built on the south bank of the Corb river.

It is known for the medicinal mineral water that flows from a local spring, and for the priest and Baroque poet Francesc Vicent Garcia (1579–1623), "El Rector de Vallfogona." Garcia wrote mostly satirical verse, and was acquainted with notable authors of the time such as Lope de Vega. He ordered the construction of the chapel of Santa Bàrbara in 1617.

History
The first historical reference to Vallfogona records the founding of the parish in 1123 after its reconquest from the Moors, who had called it Vall d'Alfes. The town was a fief of the noble house of the Counts of Queralt. By 1150, the local lord, Gombau d'Oluja, had occupied the site of Vallfogona and had repopulated the area with Christian Catalans. He laid out the town, building a small castle and beginning construction on the town's Romanesque church, both of which still stand. On his death in 1191, Gombau ceded Vallfogona to the Knights Templar. When the Temple was suppressed in 1312, Vallfogona came under control of the Knights Hospitaller. In 1416 the Hospitallers reconstructed much of the church and castle.

Vallfogona's first tourist facility, the Fonda Dolores, opened in 1870 to serve visitors to the spring and its medicinal waters.

During the Spanish Civil War (1936–39), the hotels at the spa served as a hospital for wounded Republican soldiers. About 100 casualties were buried in a mass grave in the cemetery. Three men, all conservatives, were shot by leftist forces at the beginning of the conflict. Eleven soldiers from Vallfogona died in the fighting, all on the Republican side. The Francoist victors did not execute any Vallfogonins, but at least five of them were imprisoned and several had to flee to France. Vallfogona lost nearly 20% of its population.

Vallfogona de Riucorb became part of the Conca de Barberà in the comarcal reorganization of 1990: previously it had formed part of the Segarra.

On July 10, 2010, the newly restored Romanesque sculpture of Saint Peter "dels Vigues" was unveiled; it had been pulled down from the roof of Vallfogona's parish church by anarchists during the Spanish Civil War, and broken up. The restored statue is inside the church, and a copy was made and placed in the statue's original position on the roof above the front door.

Economy
Vallfogona depends economically on agriculture and tourism. It forms part of the officially recognized Costers del Segre wine region; other crops are olives, almonds, wheat, and barley. A spa-hotel complex was constructed in the early 20th century to take advantage of the spring's waters and attract visitors. Today Vallfogona has two hotels and a restaurant. Additionally, it has an attractive public swimming pool-bar open during the summer months, popular among the locals. The forests to the south and southeast of Vallfogona are mostly pine and oak.

Transportation
The village is linked to Guimerà and to Santa Coloma de Queralt by the L-241/T-241/T-224 road. It is served by a twice-daily bus service between Barcelona and Guimerà, and a daily service between Vallfogona and Tàrrega. A track connects Vallfogona with the naturist village of El Fonoll.

First thoughts (mostly on astronomy learning)
Note: the contents of this section have been copied to Observational astronomy/Planning to encourage participation in the development of these ideas.

 * First, a little background... I used to work at a planetarium and I now work at an observatory.  One of the problems at an observatory is that a public education program requires clear skies to see objects through the telescope.  (There are always clear skies in a planetarium :)  I decided to create an activity that uses computers as a sort of virtual observatory.  This would not only create a rainy night activity but it would also bring astronomy to a larger group of people who don't have the chance to visit an observatory.  I started the Observational astronomy activity to try out these ideas.  I'm familiar with other virtual observatory learning activities.  (For instance, the Hubble FITS Liberator.)  One thing that will distinguish this learning project from others is that it is hosted on a wiki which will allow the students to interact in creating the lessons.  I have no idea how that will play out or where it will lead, but I suspect that the results will be interesting.--mikeu

 * The idea that I would eventually like to pursue is to allow students to do "real" astronomy. Students usually learn by solving "toy problems" where the only goal is to learn, and the results of solving the problem are then only given to the teacher for the purpose of getting a grade.  I'd like to give the participants original data to analyze such that their results are of some use to professional astronomers.  This is similar to ongoing projects such as the American Association of Variable Star Observers in which amateur astronomers who own a telescope contribute observations which are then analyzed by professionals.  (The National Science Foundation refers to people who do this as "citizen scientists.")  However, most of these amateurs are working individually or in small groups that only include those who have reached a certain level where they have the experience and knowledge to make a contribution.  I'd like to create an environment where it is easier for someone with no background to get involved and walk them through that first, steep, part of the learning curve.--mikeu

 * One example of a citizen science project is Stardust@home. It has a low threshold for getting involved and uses a slick tutorial and interface to train participants and get them started.  However, this project is more busy work than a learning experience.  The results make a valuable contribution to processing the science data but the only thing the person invlolved gains is a sense of satisfaction at being a part of the project.  They really don't learn much about interstellar dust.  My contributions here at Wikiversity are an experiment to determine how to create a more meaningfull learning experience while doing real science.--mikeu

 * The learning curve for doing astronomical data analysis is very steep for the uninitiated. For example, go through the short tutorial on astrometric calibration with Aladin to see the steps involved in processing a raw telescope image.  Is it reasonable to expect someone with no background  to go through a complicated process like this as part of a lesson?  Probably not, but I plan on creating activities here that will involve doing that.--mikeu

 * I'll start by creating some simple lessons that show how to use the software tools that astronomers use to analyze data. The main focus, at first, will be on learning basic concepts in astronomy while getting familiar with these tools.  I hope that the wikiversity community can help me learn how to implement the ideas that I have described.--mikeu

Wikiversity random thoughts

 * Many pages are created from templates, but the templates are so complicated that very few bother to fully fill them out. This leads to the creation of a multitude of pages that contain more boilerplate text than real content.

 * A long list of subjects that don't exist is an impediment to growth. It might entice the ambitious few to expand the content, but it probably turns away the majority of people. There is too much clutter to attract new users who would be willing to do casual editing.  New users are going to be confused trying to find content that exists, and it preimposes a structure for the future growth of what will be covered rather than just letting it happen naturaly.  These lists need to be checked to insure that they follow established Naming conventions.

 * I was working on the astronomy pages and had some confusion about namespace, problems with searching and a few other things. See Topic_talk:Astronomy for the details.

 * I've seen a couple of pages that have a nice welcome for new users. One is the Introduction at the school of mathematics which has a link to the Topic:School of Mathematics Help Desk.

Other

 * I decided to change the format of this page. I had originally intended to use this as a scratchspace to jot down my thoughts and then edit them into something more coherent.  I was also thinking that this could be a place to collaborate on planning projects.  That is different from a blog, and I probably should have created the content outside my user space to encourage participation.  This new format will be a log of things that I'm thinking and working on, with links to other pages.--mikeu 13:29, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

 * I started to cleanup the astronomy related pages. Many of the pages contain a lot of confusing clutter and things are so disorganized that it is difficult to find what little content exits.  I added all of the existing pages that I could find to the main Astronomy category.  This is not really the best way to organize things, but there is so little content that it will have to do for now.  I moved the index of content that does not yet exist from the main page to a new page and added a welcome section.  This needs to be expanded.  I doubt most new visitors have much idea about what to expect from wikiversity.--mikeu 16:56, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

 * My attention is now on creating specific content. Observational astronomy contains a couple of activities for getting started.  The focus is on learning basic principles for someone with no background in astronomy.  This page requires cleanup to make it more user friendly.  Some ideas for expanding the topic are described at Observational astronomy/Planning.  The hope is that others will provide input on the direction the project takes.  Observational astronomy/Supernova is an observing program to collect and analyze telescope data.--mikeu 15:50, 25 December 2006 (UTC)

Primary Mathematics/Multiplying numbers

Manipulatives and Models
In the early and middle primary grades, the operation of multiplication is first denoted by the symbol "x", and is normally first taught as repeated addition, where multiplying the numbers "3" and "5" (3 x 5) is the same as adding the number three a total of five times: 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 = 15, so 3 x 5 = 15. Modern curriculums initially teach this concept with manipulatives, or toys and objects that serve to model, and enable students to visualize what multiplication is. For instance, a teacher might model the problem 4 x 6 by putting 4 jelly beans each in 6 bags. Subsequent models become more abstract, but the model that all students eventually learn to understand and use is called an area rectangle:

The above area rectangle models the problem 9 x 4, which equals 36. Note that there are 4 rows and 9 columns and that the height of the rectangle is 4 units and the width (or base) is 9 units. Students find that when they count the 9 unit rows four times, they will count a total of 36 units. Soon, they come to the realization that if they were to count the 4 unit columns nine times, they arrive at the same answer. This becomes one of the ways that they learn the commutative property: a x b = b x a (See:Commutativity)     Eventually, students should memorize all of combinations of multiplying single digit numbers, but it should be noted that just because a student has memorized their multiplication facts that they necessarily understand at an abstract level what multiplication represents. Note that the above rectangle has a total of 36 square units, which serves to introduce students to the geometric axiom that area of a rectangle is equal to the base (9 in this case) times the height(4).

By working with area rectangles, students make connections to geometry that serve to strengthen their understanding of multiplication. Eventually students no longer need to see the interior square units and soon come to the understanding that one or both of the lengths of these area rectangles can be expressed as the sum of two lengths. The following area diagram models the problem 16 x 3 :

Because 16 = 10 + 6, students can visualize that the length of the above rectangle is still 16. They then can see that the larger rectangle can be expressed as the sum of the two smaller area rectangles: (3 x 10) + (3 x 6).

In upper elementary grades students are introduced to a more standard mathematical nomenclature where the mulitpication symbol "x" is no longer necessary, permitting them to notate an equation for this model as: 3(16) = 3(10) + 3(6). This is the primary model used to teach the distributive property: a(b + c) = a(b) + a(c) (See: Distributivity)

The area model can be used to show the distributive property at an even more complex level. Consider the problem 155x360:

The Use of Different Algorithms to Solve Multiplication Problems
Note that in the above model, the height and width (base) of the larger area rectangle has been broken up into smaller area rectangles based on the place holder of each digit in each number, making it a representation of the standard algorithm for multiplication:

This standard algorithm can be further modified to make it more efficient.

$$ \begin{align} 360 \\ \star 155 \\ \hline \\ 1800\\ 1800\ \\ 360\ \ \ \\ \hline \\ 55800 \end{align} $$

In the example above, multiplication is the same, but uses carried digits and integrates them into the same row.

The Lattice Method
Some students find an algorithm known as the lattice method easier to use because it involves the use of lines that guide the eventual values of the final place holders. It should be noted that students using this algorithm generally take more time to complete a problem. Additionally, this algorithm tends to become confusing for students when it is used with problems involving decimals. For these reasons, the use of the lattice method can become a liability in later grades. It is recommended that as soon as this model is mastered by the student, it becomes advisable to teach and encourage them to use the standard model.

In the left image, the two numbers are arranged at the edges of a grid. In each cell of the grid, the two numbers in the row/colum are multiplied together to get a two digit number; the tens place is placed in the upper-left triangle in the grid, and the ones in the bottom-right corner.

In the right image, each diagonal is summed to produce a number on the bottom; digits are carried to the diagonal on the left.

Multiplication with decimals
When decimals appear in a multiplication problem, they can be hidden during the multiplication. For example, when looking at the problem 21.4 x 5.63 you would ignore the decimals and perform the operation for 214 x 563. When the computation is complete and you have the answer of 120482, count the digits (or place values) to the right of the decimal in each of the original two factors. The first factor, 21.4, has one digit to the right of the decimal and the second factor 5.63 has two digits to the right of the decimal. Next, take the total of these two counts, which in this case is 3, and include the same number of digits to the right of the decimal point within the product. This makes the answer 120.482

Another way to determine where the decimal point belongs in your answer is to make an estimate. For example if you once again have the problem 21.4 x 5.63 you could make a quick estimate of 20 x 5 which is 100, so you know your answer will have to be near 100. If you complete the multiplication computation, once again ignoring the decimals (214 x 563), your answer will be 120482. The only reasonable place to insert the decimal point, based on our estimate of 100, is between the 0 and 4, making the answer 120.482

Talk:Oil desulfurization

Move Article Oil Desulphurization
Oil Desulfization should redirect to Oil Desulphurization which is the term most often used in the field of Chemical Engineering. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Picomp314 (talk • contribs) March 20, 2006 (UTC)

 * You really should sign and date your postings in Discussion pages as explained above. I don't agree that either desulfurization or desulphurization is the preferred one in chemical engineering. One is the American spelling and the other is the British spelling. As I understand it, the Wikipedia policy is to accept whichever of those two spellings was used by the original author who first wrote the article.

 * That applies to many other words as well: vapor versus vapour, modeling versus modelling, power plant versus power station, etc. mbeychok 03:33, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

Merge this article with Hydrodesulfurization and Hydrotreater
Wikipedia now has three articles covering exactly the same subject, namely: Hydrotreater, Hydrodesulfurization and Oil desulfurization. For people in the petroleum refining, petrochemical production and other hydrocarbon processing industries those three names are synonomous. In other words, they mean exactly the same thing. There is no reason why Wikipedia needs three separate articles on the same subject.

The only explanation I can come up with as to how this happened is that the original authors of the three articles failed to make a thorough search as to find out if the subject was already covered in Wikipedia.

I propose that the three articles be merged into a single one and I am tagging all three of them with a "Merge" tag. Any comments? mbeychok 03:21, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

 * I am far enough along on the merger to invite all of you to read the draft and to make or offer edits. Please note:

 * There is no "See also" section because every pertinent Wiki article I could think of is linked in the text of the draft article.
 * The "Miscellaneous uses" sub-section needs some additional uses of hydrogenation ... but please try to brief them down to just a few sentences each, if possible. Also provide references, please.
 * The Categories will be assigned after the draft is completely ready ... so don't worry about them now.
 * The article still needs an extensive section on the catalysts used in hydrogenation and I will work on that tomorrow (December 1st, for me).
 * The title will be "Hydrodesulfurization". The existing Hydrotreater and Oil desulfurization will be redirected to the merged article. The Hydrogenation article will remain as a stand-alone article.

 * The draft is in my sandbox at User:Mbeychok/MRB's sandbox and it has a Discussion page as well. Regards to all, - mbeychok 08:49, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

Federal Correctional Institution, Schuylkill

The Federal Correctional Institution, Schuylkill (FCI Schuylkill) is a medium-security United States federal prison for male inmates in Pennsylvania. It is operated by the Federal Bureau of Prisons, a division of the United States Department of Justice. The facility has an adjacent minimum-security satellite prison camp which also houses male offenders.

FCI Schuylkill is located in north-central Schuylkill County, 46 miles north the state capital of Harrisburg, and 175 miles north of Washington, D.C.

History
On April 22, 1987, the Federal Bureau of Prisons announced that a $40 million medium-security federal prison housing 500 to 600 inmates would be built in Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania. The project was expected to create 250 new prison jobs and an estimated 144 non-prison jobs. Various politicians, including US Senators Arlen Specter and John Heinz, and economic development groups such as the Schuylkill Economic Development Corporation, had lobbied vigorously for the project for three years.

Organic Chemistry/Isomerism, Chirality and Stereochemistry

Isomerism
In chemistry, isomers are molecules or polyatomic ions with identical molecular formulas — that is, same number of atoms of each element — but distinct arrangements of atoms in space.[1] Isomerism is existence or possibility of isomers.

Isomers do not necessarily share similar chemical or physical properties. Two main forms of isomerism are structural or constitutional isomerism, in which bonds between the atoms differ; and stereoisomerism or spatial isomerism, in which the bonds are the same but the relative positions of the atoms differ.

Structural isomers have the same number of atoms of each element (hence the same molecular formula), but the atoms are connected in distinct ways.

Example: C3H8O
For example, there are three distinct compounds with the molecular formula :

The first two isomers shown are propanols, that is, alcohols derived from propane. Both have a chain of three carbon atoms connected by single bonds, with the remaining carbon valences being filled by seven hydrogen atoms and by a hydroxyl group comprising the oxygen atom bound to a hydrogen atom. These two isomers differ on which carbon the hydroxyl is bound to: either to an extremity of the carbon chain propan-1-ol (1-propanol, n-propyl alcohol, n-propanol; I) or to the middle carbon propan-2-ol (2-propanol, isopropyl alcohol, isopropanol; II). These can be described by the condensed structural formulas H3C–CH2–CH2OH and H3C–CH(OH)–CH3.

The third isomer is the ether methoxyethane (ethyl-methyl-ether). Unlike the other two, it has the oxygen atom connected to two carbons, and all eight hydrogens bonded directly to carbons. It can be described by the condensed formula H3C–O–CH2–CH3.

The alcohol "3-propanol" is not another isomer, since the difference between it and 1-propanol is not real; it is only the result of an arbitrary choice in the ordering of the carbons along the chain. For the same reason, "ethoxy- methane" is not another isomer.

1-Propanol and 2-propanol are examples of positional isomers, which differ by the position at which certain features, such as double bonds or functional groups, occur on a "parent" molecule (propane, in that case).

Point chirality
Many chiral molecules have point chirality, namely a single stereogenic center that coincides with an atom. This stereogenic center usually has four or more bonds to different groups, and may be carbon (as in many biological molecules), phosphorus (as in many organophosphates), silicon, or a metal (as in many chiral coordination compounds). However, a stereogenic center can also be a trivalent atom whose bonds are not in the same plane, such as phosphorus in P-chiral phosphines (PRR′R″) and sulfur in S-chiral sulfoxides (OSRR′), typically due to a lone-pair being present instead of a fourth bond.

Chirality can also arise from isotopic differences between atoms, such as in the deuterated benzyl alcohol PhCHDOH; which is chiral and optically active ([α]D = 0.715°), even though the non-deuterated compound PhCH2OH is not.

If two enantiomers easily interconvert, the pure enantiomers may be practically impossible to separate, and only the racemic mixture is observable. This is the case, for example, of most amines with three different substituents (NRR′R″), because of the low energy barrier for nitrogen inversion. 1,1′-Bi-2-naphthol is an example of a molecule lacking point chirality. While the presence of a stereogenic center describes the great majority of chiral molecules, many variations and exceptions exist. For instance it is not necessary for the chiral substance to have a stereogenic center. Examples include 1-bromo-3-chloro-5-fluoroadamantane, methylethylphenyltetrahedrane, certain calixarenes and fullerenes, which have inherent chirality. The C2-symmetric species 1,1′-bi-2-naphthol (BINOL), 1,3-dichloroallene have axial chirality. (E)-cyclooctene and many ferrocenes have planar chirality.

When the optical rotation for an enantiomer is too low for practical measurement, the species is said to exhibit cryptochirality. Chirality is an intrinsic part of the identity of a molecule, so the systematic name includes details of the absolute configuration (R/S,  D/L , or other designations).

Stereochemistry
Stereochemistry is another name for the optical activity that a molecule expresses. Optical activity is a property of organic molecules. You have seen (+) or (-) or D or L in from of vitamins and drugs well this is the direction of light rotation. In short, for a carbon atom to have optical activity it must be chiral or have 4 different groups attached to it.

Tag
Is the tag at the top of the article necessary? More specifically, I'm asking, is there any non-neutral content that's problematic? If not, then I think the tag should be removed. --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 22:38, 16 April 2019 (UTC)

You've been working on newspaper articles recently. What do you think? --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 22:40, 16 April 2019 (UTC)

 * Looks like a question for, without diving in I'm not sure what they found objectionable or whether it's been addressed. -Pete Forsyth (talk) 22:48, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
 * , Thanks. Yes,, are any of the article's 10 sentences currently problematic? I see you've checked for neutrality based on the template at the top of this page. If you don't see any neutrality problems, why should the tag be kept? Thanks. --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 23:09, 16 April 2019 (UTC)

 * Contents inserted by those two COI editors that wrote the contents that presents it in the way as desired by the publisher remains. The tone that remains in lede is especially non-neutral. This is the version that was added mostly by the COIs phrasing like "members of the local homeless community" is POV. I'm frustrated that AB is more concerned about the tag flagging the occurrence of prohibited undisclosed paid editing (editing as payrolled members of the company) than the fact UDPE occurred and the remaining biased presentation on the article. That style of speaking, in my opinion is consistent with the the "Political alignment Homeless advocacy" description. That sort of speech should remain within their publication, not in our articles. Graywalls (talk) 23:14, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
 * , I'm not frustrated by the tag, I'm just trying to identify problematic content to remove so we can remove the tag. What's wrong with working to remove a tag? Many editors are actively working to remove tags as we speak -- that's part of improving this project. Can you please remove the remaining content you find problematic, so we can remove the tag? --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 23:26, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Apparently you're. Somehow, you get so antsy about making the tags go away on articles I have identified and located prohibited UDPE incidents; but you show no concern to the fact they're occurring. It's not "editors", it's you, usually. Graywalls (talk) 23:29, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
 * , Once again, I have no idea what you're talking about. Please remove the tag when you've finished removing non-neutral content. This is not a controversial ask. --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 23:31, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
 * I have already communicated to you that I am finding your expectations of timeline out of touch with reality. In this case, it only took you mere hours to begin complaining. Other editors too have expressed concerns that you're on an unusual haste to see actions done on Wikipedia. Graywalls (talk) 23:35, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
 * , This article has 10 sentences. Just trim the bad content and remove the tag. You're welcome to be skeptical of my preference to address and remove tags, but I'm skeptical of why you insist on keeping tags longer than necessary when the fixes are so simple. --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 23:39, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
 * I don't take directions from you. It seems to me you're working on Wikipedia full time, all the time. Your constant hassling to compel change immediately, complaining within hours, reverting the instant something you don't like is done, etc. is unreasonable in the view of reasonable time frame. I will get to it when I can in a reasonable time frame; not necessarily on YOUR deadline. Graywalls (talk) 23:46, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Right, whatever. If you don't remove the tag soon, I will. --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 23:48, 16 April 2019 (UTC)

 * I don't think AB has expressed an inclination one way or another (at least in this discussion). It's always a worthwhile question why a tag is present. If there are reasons for it, and they're not readily apparent, they should be expressed on the talk page, so that editors can more easily address them.
 * If you're referring to the two editors flagged at the top of this page, GW, the most recent edit by them was in 2012. For easy access here's a diff showing the changes since then. I'm happy to work on any issues that come up (but on he face of it, I don't understand how "members of the local homeless community" comes across as biased -- it seems to me like a simple statment of fact.) -Pete Forsyth (talk) 23:19, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
 * It's an ongoing thing between him and I. He's always bothered by my tags. I think that it should be completely re-written based on facts in a totally neutral tone and not build contents and move away from the choices they have included. I have actually been working on wording today only to have AB rolling in and objecting to tag mere hours later. The COI notice in talk page, if you look at the talk page have remained for a long time. I've just changed it to "paid", because it became apparently that these two weren't volunteers. Graywalls (talk) 23:32, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
 * , I plan to remove the tag soon, unless you object. --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 23:49, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Define "soon", because you and I are obviously have differences in the definition of soon. Graywalls (talk) 23:50, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
 * , Very soon. You could have addressed the problem in the amount of time you took writing the above comments. --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 23:54, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
 * For what it's worth I see no reason for the tag to be there, after having read all of the 1,000+ words above. If there's a problem (and I don't see it), it can't be a very complicated one, and I'm sure it could be solved with some straightforward rewording, with minimum effort. I don't see what part of Wikipedia's purpose the tag serves. -Pete Forsyth (talk) 04:24, 17 April 2019 (UTC)
 * I'll take care of it today. Graywalls (talk) 14:54, 17 April 2019 (UTC)
 * I'm bothered by your tags too. Your claim of undisclosed payments is unfounded, and you have shirked any duty to address the issues raised in the tag. If you want to claim COI, you need to specify what parts of the article violate policy. Reywas92Talk 18:26, 17 April 2019 (UTC)

I've removed the tag per consensus. --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 18:33, 17 April 2019 (UTC)

Hello, Reywas92, the allegation of connected editing in talk page pre-existed for quite some time, which was inserted here The sources used in the article already reveals who the executive director is; and I think it's reasonable to conclude executive directors are paid a salary. The presence of account by the company name, and the executive director's name having done significant editing, in my opinion fulfills the reasonable assumption that they were making the edits as a part of their work related functions. In any case, as I said, I'm working to sanitize POV stuff; but another believer appointed self appointed as consensus status arbitrator again. If at your own discretion feels the tag is not justified after reading this response, I don't object. Cheers, Graywalls (talk) 19:02, 17 April 2019 (UTC)

 * , This is ridiculous. Would you be willing to remove the tag? --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 19:04, 17 April 2019 (UTC)

 * , as I said, I took care of it today. I revised the prose to reflect what was said in the sources and better describe the POV held by this paper. Graywalls (talk) 19:39, 17 April 2019 (UTC)
 * , Cool, I guess you wanted to do the honors yourself, and insert a bit of sloppily-formatted text as well. Thanks? You might take a look at some of the recent edits, I can't keep cleaning up after this editor, especially if they're just going to revert any improvements I make. --- Another Believer  ( Talk ) 19:43, 17 April 2019 (UTC)
 * This is an embarrassment. This 2013 edit removed everything Israel Bayer added that may be COI, and the article has been well transformed since its initial creation. There is no point to slapping a tag on it that the article may require clean up when such clean up has already occurred years ago (and is still occurring). Reywas92Talk 19:42, 17 April 2019 (UTC)
 * , Welcome to working with this editor. I've been going through this for 2 months now. --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 19:44, 17 April 2019 (UTC)
 * the banner stayed in place from the day it was placed. In the last weeks, I'd say it was well cleaned up. If you think it's sloppy and want to c/e without changing the meaning or omitting information, I don't object. Graywalls (talk) 19:53, 17 April 2019 (UTC)

You ok with me archiving this discussion? --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 20:19, 23 July 2019 (UTC)

Gentle (character)

Gentle (Nezhno Abidemi) is a fictional mutant character appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. The character has been depicted as a member of the student body of the Xavier Institute.

Xavier Institute / M-Day
Prior to M-Day, he was part of Storm's unseen squad. He kept his powers in the wake of M-Day, and thus still resides at the Xavier Institute.

Emma Frost told him to step out from a sparring match to determine who would become the team of X-Men trainees.

It is later noted that Nezhno is from Wakanda, and he was the only student allowed to attend the wedding of Storm and the king of Wakanda, the Black Panther.

Quest for Magik
Nezhno is among the students who are listening to Blindfold's story about Magik, Belasco and Limbo. He, with the other students are transported to Limbo. It is revealed that Nezhno's code-name is Gentle and he has the ability to temporarily increase the mass of his muscles.

Messiah Complex
During his return to the school after Limbo, Nezhno went into a deep meditative state to calm himself and to pray about his "violence" in defense of his friends. It was at this point that he revealed that his power was a dangerous one, and that it would eventually take his life. He also retained his calm while fellow student Pixie, whom he had saved in Limbo, showed obvious interest in him.

This was nothing more, however, than a calm before the storm because soon he was thrust head first into a life changing battle when the O*N*E Sentinel went rogue and attempted to not only destroy the Xavier Institute but to kill him and his fellow students. Springing into action Nezhno used his power like never before and increased his muscle mass, height, and weight to dangerous degrees. Despite the health risks and being told to stay put by headmaster Scott Summers, he jumped into the fray and may have saved many lives by his intervention. Despite knowing that his life may be forfeit he did his best to halt the Sentinels and was apparently neutralized by one and lay depowered and unconscious on the battlefield.

Nezhno proved himself quite durable however and was not seen in the infirmary with the sick and injured but turned up in defense of his sick friends when Predator X attacked the school looking for an easy meal. Nezhno and Armor use a combination of their powers to hold off the beast while Pixie teleports them to what remains of Muir Island. Once there they continue their fight with the monster.

Divided We Stand
Just three days after the events of Messiah Complex, Nezhno decided to head back to his homeland, Wakanda. He was relieved to be free of the pestering of his former classmates, saying that they "nearly destroyed [him] with their insanity". During his return however, he found himself ostracized not only by his fellow Wakandans, but also by his own mother - due to the facts that his biological father was Russian, and therefore he is only seen as an outsider to his people. He then reflects that the only people who accepted him were the New X-Men, and he regrets having pushed them away.

Worlds Apart
Nezhno kills a Wakandan priest and is then placed in jail; however, Storm doesn't believe he is responsible until she is shown security footage of the act taking place. Ororo notices Nezhno acting out of character when he winks at the camera. She asks him to wink for her but he doesn't know what it is so Ororo has him freed declaring him innocent. Later the Black Panther orders his execution and winks at Ororo. It is revealed Shadow King is the one framing Nezhno.

Manifest Destiny and Utopia
Neznho moves to San Francisco along with the rest of the X-Men.

After Norman Osborn declares martial law on San Francisco and the X-Men fight the Dark Avengers, Cyclops moves the mutants to an artificial island off the coast of San Francisco named Utopia. Later, Nezhno is seen sharing is power with Rogue along with other students in order to fend off an attack on Utopia by Predators X. Nezhno is also seen in the aftermath of the Age of X crossover comforting Pixie, after reality is restored in Utopia.

Jean Grey School
When a rogue sentinel attacks the island nation of Utopia in the X-Men: Schism storyline, Nezhno, Generation Hope and other students join the fight. Soon after, he chooses Wolverine's side and departs back to Westchester, to enroll in the newly created Jean Grey School. During this time, he was also mentally controlled by Quentin Quire (Kid Omega).

X-Men: Red Team
Some time later, after Jean Grey is resurrected, he joins her newly created Red Team, along with Storm, Namor and new character Trinary.

Dawn of X
He also cameos with other mutants (Frenzy, Storm, Bling! and Prodigy) in T'Challa's line of defense of Wakanda against an invasion.

During the arc The Long Shadow, Black Panther (T'Challa) visits a terraformed planet Mars to talk to his ex-wife Storm. A secret meeting between T'Challa and Gentle reveals that Nezhno had been part of a Wakandan sleeper agent program.

Powers and abilities
Nezhno has the ability to temporarily increase the muscle mass of his body to extreme levels. He can will himself to immediately grow and strengthen to the extent that he can lift at least 100 tons. However, he cannot sustain this form for long since it causes massive strain on his body and leads to seizures. After Belasco had kidnapped the New X-Men to Limbo, Nezhno was able to protect Pixie and defeat N'astirh before passing out. The vibranium tattoos adorning his body help to keep his powers in check, but Nezhno indicated that eventually his powers may kill him. When his powers are in use his vibranium tattoos glow. These tattoos are actually Vibranium-based paints that were intended to be fused with his skin.

Nezhno was excused from Emma's New X-Men brawl for his own safety and only participated in minimal violence while in Limbo. He saves this power for emergencies as it can only be used for a short period of time. He had said that he lacked any sense of touch, but it is possible that he might have felt Mercury touch him at some point. It was later revealed that his pain at power use & his touch insensitivity stemmed from a subconscious form of self-restraint he placed on himself due to the verbal and physical abuse he suffered from his mother. When Jean Grey helped to remove these psychological scars it enabled Nezhno to use his powers without any detriment and restored his sense of touch. According to Jean Grey, Gentle is powerful enough to go toe-to-toe with the Hulk if he could just will it.

Personality and beliefs
Nezhno is a calm and passive individual and is often seen meditating. Though not cold, he does not speak much. He seems to hold strong pacifistic beliefs and refrains from any sort of violence, though those may originate from the self-lethal nature of his mutation. His codename spawns from these beliefs. Likewise, he only uses his powers "in emergencies". He also looks similar to the character Requiem who appeared in The Uncanny X-Men #382 as part of the Neo Lost Souls.

National Streetworks Gazetteer

The National Streetworks Gazetteer is a service provided in partnership between Ordnance Survey and British highway authorities – the County, City or District Councils – which provides information on each and every adopted highway in England and Wales. Different legislation exists for the system in Scotland.

The Gazetteer is used to provide noticing to the Highway Authorities by statutory undertakers, the name given to contractors such as Enterprise plc or Balfour Beatty, before any roadworks, or excavation of footpaths or carriageways can be executed. Notifying the Highway Authorities is required by law through the New Roads and Streetworks Act 1991 and the Traffic Management Act 2004.

Each highway authority in England and Wales must provide up-to-date information to keep the Gazetteer updated twice a year. This ensures that following any excavation by a contractor, the correct concrete or tarmac is used by those carrying out the works. The Gazetteer also provides information relating to the "traffic sensitivity" of the highway, which is a state given to any roads the councils believe are too busy for works to be carried out without prior notice.

Data
The entries on each street supply every publicly owned highway with a unique number, known as the Unique Street Reference Number. An example of an entry in the Gazetteer includes the carriageway type – indicating the kind of tarmac required for reinstatement – and any traffic sensitive restrictions.
