Draft:Original research/Chemistry

Chemistry is the science of matter, especially its chemical reactions, but also its composition, structure and properties. Chemistry is concerned with atoms and their interactions with other atoms, and particularly with the properties of chemical bonds.

Most of Wikiversity's content on chemistry can currently be found at the School:Chemistry page.

Sciences
Def. a natural science "that deals with the composition and constitution of substances and the changes that they undergo as a consequence of alterations in the constitution of their molecules" is called chemistry.

Def. a science that deals with is called chemistry.
 * 1) the identification of the substances of which matter is composed,
 * 2) the investigation of their properties and the ways in which they interact, combine, and change, and
 * 3) the use of these processes to form new substances

Def. "a science that deals with the composition, structure, and properties of substances and of the transformations that they undergo" is called chemistry.

Agrochemistry
Agricultural chemistry is the study of both chemistry and biochemistry which are important in agricultural production, the processing of raw products into foods and beverages, and in environmental monitoring and remediation. These studies emphasize the relationships between plants, animals and bacteria and their environment.

Agricultural chemistry often aims at preserving or increasing the fertility of soil, maintaining or improving the agricultural yield, and improving the quality of the crop.

Analytical chemistry
Analytical chemistry is the analysis of material samples to gain an understanding of their chemical composition and structure. Analytical chemistry incorporates standardized experimental methods in chemistry. These methods may be used in all subdisciplines of chemistry, excluding purely theoretical chemistry.

Astrochemistry
Astrochemistry is the study of the chemical composition of stars and outer space.

Biochemistry
Biochemistry is the study of the chemicals, chemical reactions and chemical interactions that take place in living organisms. Biochemistry and organic chemistry are closely related, as in medicinal chemistry or neurochemistry. Biochemistry is also associated with molecular biology and genetics.

"The range of colors in animal fur comes from varying amounts of two types of a pigment called melanin. Eumelanin produces black or dark brown coloring, while pheomelanin creates reddish or yellow hues. Pheomelanin doesn’t tend to hold up well over the millions of years most fossils are buried; eumelanin is more sturdy, which is why we have a decent idea about the patterns of light and dark in the feathers of Archaeopteryx and some of the other ancestors of today’s birds."

In the image on the right, a "false color synchrotron X-ray image [shows] the fossil chemistry. Blue represents calcium in the bones, green is the element zinc, which has been shown to be important in the biochemistry of red pigment, and red is a particular type of organic sulfur that cannot be imaged by traditional methods. This type of sulfur is enriched in red pigment. When combined, regions rich in both zinc and sulfur appear yellow on this image, showing that the fur on this animal was rich in the chemical compounds that are most probably derived from the original red pigments produced by the mouse."

Chemical "compounds with rings containing sulfur are a dead giveaway for the presence of reddish pheomelanin in recently dead animal fur or feathers. But when the animal decays, those sulfur-ring molecules break down."

"We discovered an important relationship between zinc and sulfur that we believe could be used as a ‘tag’ for resolving pheomelanin in fossils." "When pheomelanin breaks down, tiny traces of the metal remain embedded in the fossilized fibers of hair, and Wogelius and his colleagues found a way to look for those traces in order to reconstruct the coloring of the long-dead fossil field mouse."

"We thought that the preservation in this case was good enough to allow comparison with modern tissue, but old enough that it would be a good test of our new protocols for analyzing fossils."

"Using a technique called synchrotron x-ray fluorescence imaging, the team bombarded the fossil with X-rays and watched how they interacted with the metals in the fossilized strands of mouse fur. The patterns of metal traces matched the ones they had previously seen in animals with very high concentrations of the reddish pigment—everywhere except on its white underbelly."

"This study presents evidence that, beyond what we can see with the visible part of the electromagnetic spectrum, that original biological chemistry is also retained within these structures." "It also shows that paleontologists may miss important information if they only check a couple of spots for the presence of pigment. Instead, mapping how pigments vary (and often mix) across an organism’s body is the key to really understanding its coloration."

"Of course, that depends on having fossilized fur or feathers to analyze in the first place. When it died 3 million years ago, the field mouse happened to fall into a small, deep basin where sediment piled up quickly, burying the mouse and sealing it away from oxygen. That kind of good luck doesn’t happen every day."

"Common? No. But there will be hundreds of specimens either stored in museums or yet to be sampled which will have suitable material for study."

"We are busy with a number of new projects, some related to pigments and some related to other aspects of soft tissue preservation stretching back further than 3 million years."

"It has taken us over a decade to really understand the information that our primary technique (synchrotron X-ray fluorescence imaging) can provide."

"[O]rganosulfur-Zn complexes are indicators of pheomelanin (red pigment) in extant and fossil soft tissue and that the mapping of these residual biochemical compounds can be used to restore melanin pigment distribution in a 3 million year old extinct mammal species (Apodemus atavus). Synchotron Rapid Scanning X-ray Fluorescence imaging showed that the distributions of Zn and organic S are correlated within this fossil fur just as in pheomelanin-rich modern integument. Furthermore, Zn coordination chemistry within this fossil fur is closely comparable to that determined from pheomelanin-rich fur and hair standards."

Combinatorial chemistry
Combinatorial chemistry involves the rapid synthesis or the computer simulation of a large number of different but structurally related molecules.

Inorganic chemistry
Inorganic chemistry is the study of the properties and reactions of inorganic compounds. The distinction between organic and inorganic disciplines is not absolute and there is much overlap, most importantly in the sub-discipline of organometallic chemistry.

Materials chemistry
The "influence of ultra-thin TiO 2, CeO 2 and Al 2 O 3 coatings deposited by atomic layer deposition on the photoelectrochemical performance of In x Ga 1−x N/GaN nanowire (NW) [photoelectrodes:] The passivation of surface states results in an increase of the anodic photocurrent (PC) by a factor of 2.5 for the deposition of 5 nm TiO 2 . In contrast, the PC is reduced for CeO 2 - and Al 2 O 3 -coated NWs due to enhanced defect recombination in the passivation layer or increased band discontinuities. Furthermore, photoelectrochemical oxidation of the In x Ga 1−x N/GaN NW photoelectrode is attenuated by the TiO 2 layer and completely suppressed for a layer thickness of 7 nm or more. Due to efficient charge transfer from the In x Ga 1−x N NW core a stable TiO 2 -covered photoanode with visible light excitation is realized."

Neurochemistry
Neurochemistry is the study of neurochemicals; including transmitters, peptides, proteins, lipids, sugars, and nucleic acids; their interactions, and the roles they play in forming, maintaining, and modifying the nervous system.

Nuclear chemistry
Nuclear chemistry is the study of how subatomic particles come together and make nuclei. Modern Transmutation is a large component of nuclear chemistry, and the table of nuclides is an important result and tool for this field.

Organic chemistry
Organic chemistry is the study of the structure, properties, composition, mechanisms, and reactions of organic compounds. An organic compound is defined as any compound based on a carbon skeleton.

Physical chemistry
Physical chemistry is the study of the physical and fundamental basis of chemical systems and processes. In particular, the energetics and dynamics of such systems and processes are of interest to physical chemists. Important areas of study include chemical thermodynamics, chemical kinetics, electrochemistry, statistical mechanics, spectroscopy, and more recently, astrochemistry. Physical chemistry has large overlap with molecular physics. Physical chemistry involves the use of infinitesimal calculus in deriving equations. It is usually associated with quantum chemistry and theoretical chemistry. Physical chemistry is a distinct discipline from chemical physics, but again, there is very strong overlap.

Quantum chemistry
Quantum chemistry is the area of chemistry concerned with quantum computations of molecular properties and chemical reactions, including also theories and mechanisms of chemical reactions and processes.

Theoretical chemistry
Theoretical chemistry is the study of chemistry via fundamental theoretical reasoning (usually within mathematics or physics). In particular the application of quantum mechanics to chemistry is called quantum chemistry. Since the end of the Second World War, the development of computers has allowed a systematic development of computational chemistry, which is the art of developing and applying computer programs for solving chemical problems. Theoretical chemistry has large overlap with (theoretical and experimental) condensed matter physics and molecular physics.

Thermochemistry
Thermochemistry is the study of energy and temperature changes in a chemical process, and is closely related to thermodynamics.

Talk:Guitar/Tapping

"Eruption" is not entirely tapped; it features a tremolo picking section, for one thing. -- Jimregan 21:15, 4 May 2004 (UTC)

Ok, "van-halen" style tapping as you call it is not two handed tapping, thats just plain tapping. Although i have not checked out his work, i assume that jordan guy is someone who uses two-handed tapping, also known as touch style. There are quite a few people around who use that style, as for virtuosity, besides being a matter of opinion, there are many very skilled two-handed tapping players such as Adam Fulara. Also your missing out Joe Satriani who is probably the most widely known artist to take advantage of two handed tapping.

Jesús Cruz

Jesús Cruz (born April 15, 1995) is a Mexican professional baseball pitcher for the Leones de Yucatán of the Mexican League. He has previously played in Major League Baseball (MLB) for the St. Louis Cardinals and Atlanta Braves.

Sultanes de Monterrey
Cruz began his professional career by signing with the Sultanes de Monterrey of the Mexican League on March 30, 2017. Cruz struggled to an 8.49 ERA in 13 appearances for Monterrey before he was released on July 1.

St. Louis Cardinals
On July 2, 2017, Cruz signed a minor league contract with the St. Louis Cardinals organization. He finished the 2017 season splitting time between three Cardinals affiliates; the Dominican Summer League Cardinals, the rookie-level GCL Cardinals, and the Low-A State College Spikes. With the three clubs, Cruz worked to a 1.42 ERA with 30 strikeouts in 19.0 innings pitched across 15 combined appearances. In 2018, Cruz split the season between the Single-A Peoria Chiefs and the High-A Palm Beach Cardinals, pitching to a 7–1 record and 3.27 ERA with 104 strikeouts in 30 total games. He spent the 2019 season split between the Double-A Springfield Cardinals and the Triple-A Memphis Redbirds, but struggled overall to the tune of a 6.02 ERA with 89 strikeouts, a 13.1 K/9 and 6.8 BB/9 in 52 contests between the two affiliates. Cruz did not play in a minor league game in 2020 due to the cancellation of the minor league season because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Cruz was selected to the 40-man roster and promoted to the major leagues for the first time on August 18, 2020, and same day he made his MLB debut. He made his major league debut that day against the Chicago Cubs, allowing two earned runs in an inning of relief. He was optioned down to the alternate training site following the appearance. On September 1, Cruz was designated for assignment by the Cardinals after Ryan Helsley was activated off of the COVID list. Cruz spent the 2021 season with Triple-A Memphis, posting a 3.06 ERA with 38 strikeouts across 37 appearances. In the offseason, Cruz played with the Águilas de Mexicali of the Mexican Pacific League. On March 30, 2022, Cruz was released by the Cardinals organization.

Atlanta Braves
On April 6, 2022, Cruz signed a minor league deal with the Atlanta Braves. He was assigned to the Triple-A Gwinnett Braves to begin the year. Cruz was recalled to the major leagues on May 29. He was sent outright on August 6, 2022. On October 14, Cruz elected to become a free agent.

Philadelphia Phillies
On January 24, 2023, Cruz signed a minor league contract with the Philadelphia Phillies organization. In 28 games for the Triple–A Lehigh Valley IronPigs, he posted a 5.40 ERA with 39 strikeouts in 35.0 innings of work. On July 25, Cruz was released by Philadelphia.

Leones de Yucatán
On July 27, 2023, Cruz signed with the Leones de Yucatán of the Mexican League. In four outings for Yucatán, he did not concede a run, striking out six in four innings pitched.

International career
Cruz was part of the Mexican squad that won the bronze medal at the 2023 Pan American Games contested in Santiago, Chile in October 2023.

Talk:Merahi metua no Tehamana

Teha'amana should be the article, not the painting.
I don't understand why the main article is not about Teha'amana, with Merahi metua no Tehamana as one of the subheadings. Most of the article is about her and other representations of her, not about this specific painting, so she is the focus of everything, not the painting. Can we change this? It is also more ethical to give her her own article.

Wikipedia:Picture peer review/File:HMB Endeavour replica in Southern Ocean under full sail.jpg

HMB Endeavour
Images of Tall Ships under full sail are rare for a number of reasons. Firstly, the vessels do not often set full sail; the weather needs to be just right, and stable (it can take more time to set and hand the sails than there are hours of daylight). Secondly, even when full sail is set, there needs to be another vessel around to get photos like this one (or a tender needs to be launched, which increases the time required).

This photo suffers from a number of technical flaws (because it was taken with a compact digital camera); vignetting can be seen (especially in the top left corner), some of the highlights in the bow wave are blown, and the image could be sharper and have less noise on the ocean surface.

Despite these flaws, I think it is a good photo of a rare subject that substantially enhances the article. For this reason I think it is worthy of Featured Picture status.

 * Keep This is actually based on a real locomotive (see here, for example), and so the worst case would be merger into the article about that per WP:ATD. The nomination says nothing about this and so I doubt that the article was read or understood.  What we've got here is the usual WP:CRUFTCRUFT per WP:IDONTLIKEIT; WP:IGNORINGATD; WP:RUBBISH; &c. Andrew🐉(talk) 10:45, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
 * What we have here is a clear WP:GNG failure, even that source, while reliable, only gives Peter Sam a sentence. Andrew, keep !votes without demonstrating why the subject passes GNG is slightly disruptive.  If you can find multiple reliable sources that give substantial coverage, then there's a very good case for keeping.  I tried to do that and failed, maybe you'll have better luck than me. Hog Farm Bacon 13:26, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
 * - Further, what are we going to merge? The entire content of the article is uncited, and merging uncited content is generally frowned up.  Additionally, there are issues that the fictional biography of Peter Sam would be extremely undue at Edward Thomas (locomotive).  The relevant sentence, "The character Peter Sam in The Railway Series books by the Rev. W. Awdry is based on Edward Thomas.", is already at the article, and since there's no citation to merge, there's nothing to merge.  A redirect there would be acceptable, I guess, since this does seem to be the primary topic for Peter Sam, but I strongly oppose any merger, and I've seen no evidence that this meets the stand-alone notability guidelines. I have yet to be disproved on that. Hog Farm Bacon 14:05, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Edward Thomas (locomotive), alright, it's based of something in the real world. Quite a few fictional things are, does not make them notable. Coverage dug up is just a passing mention, and the sentence at the target is all that is needed. Devonian Wombat (talk) 06:06, 20 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Edward Thomas (locomotive). Merging is unnecessary as there is not a single piece of content currently in the article that is actually cited to a source.  The one piece of information brought up in a source in this AFD, that this fictional train was based off of the Edward Thomas, is already included in the target article.

Wikipedia talk:Featured article candidates/Battle of Cape Hermaeum/archive1

TFA blurb review
The Roman withdrawal from Africa in 255 BC was the attempt by the Roman Republic to rescue the survivors of their defeated expeditionary force to Carthaginian Africa (in what is now northeastern Tunisia) during the First Punic War. A force of 390 warships fought and defeated 200 Carthaginian vessels (layout of rowers in an ancient galley depicted) off Cape Hermaeum (the modern Cape Bon or Ras ed-Dar), north of the town of Aspis. The Carthaginians had 114 of their ships captured, together with their crews, and 16 sunk. Most modern historians assume there were no Roman losses. The Romans landed in Aspis – where the Roman survivors of the previous year's invasion were besieged – sortied, dispersed the besiegers and raided the surrounding country for food. All then re-embarked and left for Italy. While returning the Roman fleet encountered a storm off the south-east corner of Sicily; 384 ships were sunk and more than 100,000 men were lost.

List of Tunisia national football team managers

The Tunisia national football team manager was first established in 1956 following the appointment of the country's first national team manager Rachid Turki. Thirty-six men have occupied the post since its inception; three of those were in short-term caretaker manager roles: Faouzi Benzarti in two terms (one game in charge in 1994 and four games in 2010), Sami Trabelsi (six games in 2011 until he was appointed full-time) and Ruud Krol (two games).

Roger Lemerre held the position for the longest to date with a tenure of six years leading the team in 67 matches, more than any other manager in Tunisia's history. He is also the most successful manager after winning the 2004 Africa Cup of Nations, reaching 2005 FIFA Confederations Cup and qualifying for the 2006 FIFA World Cup. Yugoslav coach Milan Kristić became the first foreign manager of the team in 1960. France has the largest number of managers to have coached Tunisia, with six managers.

Role
The Tunisia manager's role means he has sole responsibility for all on-the-field elements of the Tunisian team. Among other activities, this includes selecting the national team squad, the starting team, captain, tactics, substitutes and penalty-takers.

The coach has a relative freedom to choose his staff as some of coaches refused to coach the Tunisian national team due to the Tunisian Football Federation’s refusal to appoint foreign assistant coaches. This was the case with Jacques Santini in 2008 and Raymond Domenech. However, the Tunisian Football Federation agreed to Henryk Kasperczak's proposal in 2015 to appoint Frenchman Patrick Hesse to the team.

Appointment
The process of appointing a new Tunisia manager is undertaken by a FTF committee, which is composed of board members and other high-ranking FTF officials. Every time this process is subject to controversy because the committee includes former coaches who did not succeed with the national team, such as Youssef Zouaoui and Mokhtar Tlili.

List
As of 9 june 2024 after match against 🇳🇦 namibia.

Sacred Sperm

Sacred Sperm (זרע קודש) is a 2014 Israeli documentary film directed by Ori Gruder, exploring the taboo of masturbation in Judaism. The TV version of the film world premiered at the 22nd Raindance Film Festival in October 2014 and was nominated in the short documentary film category at the end of 2014 Ophir Awards. The theatrical long version of the movie premiered at the 30th Santa Barbara Film Festival in February 2015. The Eastern Europe Premier was at the 55th Kraków International Film Festival mid 2015. This movie won the Accolade Global Film Competition - Award of Excellence at December 2014 and took the first prize Best Documentary at the 18th Religion Today Int' film festival in Italy at October 2015 and has been screened at more than 30 film festivals worldwide. The educational channel of Sweden screened the film during 2015 and it was chosen to be in the 10th most popular films of the year. Since the TV version became online In Israel itself already more than half a million viewers watched it through Hot, ynet and VOD options.

Background
The Jewish prohibition against masturbation is codified in the Kitzur Shulchan Aruch (Chapter 151:1), which states, "It is forbidden to discharge semen in vain. This is a graver sin than any other in the Torah". The Kitzur Shulchan Aruch goes on to describe the repercussions from this sin and offers men suggestions for avoiding it. In Torah-observant circles, masturbation is forbidden, and sexual intercourse with a member of the opposite sex is restricted to married couples only. Viewing secular media and using an unfiltered internet is also generally discouraged.

Gruder became a member of the Breslov Hasidic community at the age of 30, having previously led a secular Jewish lifestyle working in the television industry. One of his motivations behind the film was to learn how to approach the topic of sex education with his 10-year-old son. He received backing from a rabbi for the film, despite both the film premise and broadcast medium being prohibited on religious grounds. A plotline in "The Contest", an episode from American sitcom Seinfeld, was an inspiration for Gruder during production.

Synopsis
Gruder meets with several rabbis to discuss the subject of masturbation within Haredi society. He learns how Haredi teenage boys traditionally deal with the subject, with various relaxation exercises, and also discovers that Haredi men are taught not to touch their penises while urinating. Gruder also explains the measures he takes as repentance for his past sins; including immersing himself in a mikveh full of ice cubes, fasting, charitable monetary donations and praying – while rolling in the snow at Mount Hermon during winter.

Reception
The film premiered at the 22nd Raindance Film Festival in London on 2 October 2014. It was shortlisted in the short documentary film category at the 2014 Ophir Awards, losing out to Keren Shayo's film The Sound of Torture. A 60-minute version of the film premiered in Israel at the Jerusalem Film Festival at the Jerusalem Cinematheque in December 2014 and on Television on Hot cable Channel 8; the full long version is being distributed in Europe by Go2Films and in North America by Menemsha films

Talk:Assembly of the City and Borough of Juneau, Alaska

Actually, this article could use some mention of the panoramic photo of Mendenhall Glacier which adorns the wall directly behind where the assemblymembers sit. I'm pretty sure that sources exist which mention the process that Ron Klein(?) undertook to make that photo in at least some detail. Speaking of photos, an edition of the Alaska Blue Book included a photo of the Assembly, ca. 1984, in a joint meeting with the planning commission. Since there's been little to no effort to assess the copyright status of Alaska state documents, I'm probably just pissing up a tree here. Still, it may be worth considering as a fair use image if nothing else. RadioKAOS –  Talk to me, Billy  03:44, 19 June 2013 (UTC)

Not that they cannot be cited, but their comments in this case are simply irrelevant to the question of interpretation. If you think it belongs in a section concerning whether this section belongs in the Gospel, well, then it might have a place. But then it opens up the discussion to what *everybody* says --- note well that the Jesus Seminar is not well-regarded even by scholars who agree with their conclusions. --Rekleov 16:25, 15 October 2007 (UTC)

 * To the contrary, my impression is that the Jesus Seminar is quite well regarded. Their conclusions are often unorthodox and even heretical, but are articulate and well-researched and consequently widely read and respected. Their membership includes many scholars who are notable in relevant fields. We should also note that many of the english-speaking scholars who might otherwise comment to this effect are employed by conservative Christian groups such as theological colleges!Andrewa (talk) 21:21, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

Django (album)

Django is an album by the Modern Jazz Quartet, first released on 12-inch LP in 1956.

Overview
The actual sessions had taken place in June 1953, December 1954, and January 1955, and (as Prestige Records had yet to enter the 12-inch LP era) were first released on two 10-inch albums, entitled Modern Jazz Quartet (PRLP 160, 1953, whose second side contained "The Queen's Fancy", "Delauney's Dilemma", "Autumn In New York" and "But Not For Me") and The Modern Jazz Quartet, Vol. 2 (PRLP 170, 1955, containing "Django", "One Bass Hit", "Milano" and "La Ronde Suite"). The first session took place in New York, but the eventual Hackensack, New Jersey sessions were engineered by Rudy Van Gelder; the whole album was reissued in 2006 as part of the Rudy Van Gelder Remasters collection.

"Django" (like the other original material on the album) was composed by the group's pianist and musical director, John Lewis. It is one of his best-known compositions, written in memory of the Belgian gypsy guitarist Django Reinhardt. One other apostrophic tune is "Delauney's Dilemma", a jaunty tribute to the French jazz critic Charles Delaunay. The lengthy "La Ronde Suite", with discrete sections emphasizing each group member's contributions, is in fact a version of the standard "Two Bass Hit", written by Lewis for Dizzy Gillespie and recorded by, among others, Miles Davis on Milestones. Gillespie's own tune, "One Bass Hit", is also included as a feature for bassist Percy Heath.

Vibraphonist Milt "Bags" Jackson can be heard grunting and humming throughout the quieter numbers, which include renditions of the Gershwins' "But Not For Me" and the Vernon Duke standard "Autumn In New York".

Reception
Writing for All About Jazz, Douglas Payne described Django as "classic jazz in construction and execution" and said it was "the place to begin appreciating the many and great virtues of one of jazz's finest aggregates". AllMusic's Lindsay Planer wrote that "In terms of seminal Modern Jazz Quartet entries, it is hard to exceed the variety of styles and performances gathered on Django."

Track listing

 * 1) "Django" (John Lewis) – 7:03
 * 2) "One Bass Hit" (Dizzy Gillespie) – 2:59

Cookbook:Cayenne Pepper

Cayenne pepper is a hot red chile.

Characteristics
This chile is a couple inches long and bright red when ripe, with a heat level of about 30,000 to 50,000 Scoville units. While some other chiles have complex flavor profiles, cayenne is generally neutral aside from its clean heat.

Selection and storage
Cayenne may be used fresh, but it is very commonly available dried and ground. The fresh version should be firm and waxy, and it keeps for a couple days in the fridge. The dried form should be kept in an airtight container away from light, heat, and moisture.

Use
Cayenne is used in cooking various spicy hot dishes, where it adds a straightforward heat without other flavor. It is an essential ingredient in Cajun cuisine. The chile is also used to add heat to sweet dishes, such as chocolate confections and more.

Boroondara-Carey Eagles FC

The Boroondara-Carey Eagles Football Club is an Australian semi-professional soccer club based in the Melbourne suburb of Bulleen. The club was established in 1982 as 'Epping Eagles' by the Italian community of Melbourne, and amalgamated with another three other clubs with the most recent being in February 2015.

The club fields both senior and reserves teams for men & women, and operates a junior academy under license from Football Federation Victoria. Although based primarily in Bulleen, the club trains at hosts home matches at various venues in Balwyn North, Kew, and Kew East to accommodate for the youth academy.

Italian heritage of the Eagles (1982–2007)
The football club's history dates back to 1982 with the founding of Italian backed club, Epping Eagles SC, later renamed as 'Eagles United' and finally 'Kew Eagles', the oldest of the four original clubs that would make up the present club. The second club, Doncaster Inter SC, also an Italian backed club was founded in 1986 as 'Intercity'. Eagles and Inter would never play against each other competitively as they were in different respective leagues, and would eventually merge in early 1994 to create the Templestowe Eagles SC, this being the first of three mergers. The stronger club would see immediate success in finishing second on the ladder in the eight-tier league in 1994 and 1995, eventually finishing first and being promoted in 1996 to tier seven. 1997 would see the Eagles narrowly finish second and be promoted to tier six, one point behind Riversdale and one point ahead of Sydenham Park. The seasons of 1998-2004 would see the senior men's team hover mid-table in the sixth and fifth tiers before a recruitment drive saw the team be promoted back-to-back in 2005 and 2006 all the way to third tier, but were relegated back to fourth tier in 2007, which would be the last season before the second merger.

Wesley College heritage (2003–2007) and merge with Templestowe Eagles (2008–2014)
The third original club of the present club was 'Collegians Association Football Club', founded in late 2002 by alumni and parents of the independent school, Wesley College. Later renaming to 'Boroondara Lions' for the 2004 season onwards, its five years of existence as a standalone club in seasons 2003–2007 saw the senior men's team finish mid-table in the seventh tier league every season. The lions would never competitively face its future merger clubs, and eventually merged with Templestowe Eagles for the 2008 season to become the Boroondara Eagles. Despite optimism and established off-field stability, seasons 2008–2010 proved difficult for the revamped Eagles in seeing relegation twice down to tier six for the 2011 season which would later prove significant in the club's history.

Carey Grammar heritage (2005–2014)
The last of the original clubs was to be Old Carey SC, founded in 2005 by alumni and parents of the Kew based independent school Carey Baptist Grammar School, a fellow Associated Public Schools of Victoria of Wesley College. The club played out of the school's sports complex in Bulleen, where the present entity competes as of to the 2024 season. After mixed results in 2005–2010, the senior men's team would find itself in tier six for 2011, the same league as its future merger partner. Old Carey and Boroondara Eagles first clashed on 21 May 2011 at the Carey sports complex in what would be a 4–3 thriller with the winning fourth goal by Carey being scored at the 89th minute. In 2012, Old Carey would see default promotion to tier five, where the club would stay before its merger with the eagles in early 2015, whilst eagles would remain in tier six. The two clubs last faced each other in round fifteen of the 2012 season on 28 July, with Old Carey again prevailing at the Carey complex, winning 3–1.

Present day and leagues ascension (2015–present)
The two clubs would officially merge in late 2014, coming into effect in February 2015. The Boroondara-Carey Eagles would compete in Old Carey's tier five league spot for 2015, but would be relegated into the Victorian State League Division 4 northern conference. Whilst finishing mid-table in 2016, the resurgent Eagles would finish first three times in a row for 2017, 2018, and 2019.

Historical Honours
The following list of honours was achieved by each of the four original stand-alone clubs and the two merged clubs, all of which were founded no earlier than 1982. No honours were achieved by 'Boroondara Eagles' or 'Boroondara Lions' prior to their respective merges, before the final merger at the conclusion of the 2014 season.

Fastly

Fastly is an American cloud computing services provider. It describes its network as an edge cloud platform, which is designed to help developers extend their core cloud infrastructure to the edge of the network, closer to users. The Fastly edge cloud platform includes their content delivery network (CDN), image optimization, video and streaming, cloud security, and load balancing services. Fastly's cloud security services include denial-of-service attack protection, bot mitigation, and a web application firewall. Fastly's web application firewall uses the Open Web Application Security Project ModSecurity Core Rule Set alongside its own ruleset.

The Fastly platform is built on top of Varnish. Fastly transfers 50–100 Tbps of data.

History
Fastly was founded in 2011 by the Swedish-American entrepreneur Artur Bergman, previously chief technical officer at Wikia (now Fandom). In June 2013, Fastly raised $10 million in Series B funding. In April 2014, the company announced that it had acquired CDN Sumo, a CDN add-on for Heroku. In September 2014, Fastly raised a further $40 million in Series C funding, followed by a $75 million Series D round in August 2015.

In September 2015, Google partnered with Fastly and other content delivery network providers to offer services to its users. In April 2017, Fastly launched its edge cloud platform along with image optimization, load balancing, and a web application firewall.

Fastly raised $50 million in funding in April 2017, and another $40 million in July 2018. The company filed for an initial public offering (IPO) in April 2019 and debuted on the New York Stock Exchange on May 17, 2019. In February 2020, Bergman stepped down as CEO and assumed the role of chief architect and executive chairperson; Joshua Bixby took over the CEO role.

In August 2020, Fastly announced it was acquiring cybersecurity company Signal Sciences for $775 million ($200 million in cash and $575 million in stock).

In June 2021, Ronald W. Kisling, previously employed by Alphabet as the CFO of the Fitbit division, was hired to serve as Fastly's CFO, succeeding Adriel Lares. He assumed the position in August 2021.

In May 2022, Fastly announced it had acquired Glitch, a web coding platform with more than 1.8 million developers.

In August 2022, Todd Nightingale, previously employed by Cisco as Executive Vice President of Enterprise Networking and Cloud business, was hired to serve as Fastly's CEO, succeeding Joshua Bixby.

In August 2023, it was announced Fastly has acquired the domain status API provider, Domainr.

In June 2024, Fastly announced the launch of their artificial intelligence 'accelerator' at their first-ever special event held in New York City. This accelerator would provide developers with faster and cheaper access to AI via their edge computing API, initially supporting ChatGPT, with intent to support additional models.

Operation
Fastly's CDN service follows the reverse proxy model, routing all website traffic through their own servers instead of providing a 'cdn.mydomain.com' address to store site-specific files. It then fetches content from the point of presence nearest to the location of the requesting user, out of nearly 60 worldwide. Aside from a free account tier that offers US$50 per month worth of CDN traffic and uncapped access to features such as redirects and DDoS mitigation, it is priced as a pay-as-you-go service subject to a US$50 per month minimum charge, with bandwidth charged at variable rates depending on region. Content is not directly uploaded to their servers, rather it is pulled periodically from the origin server and cached in order to reduce the time required for an end-user to access the content.

Fastly supports the UDP-based HTTP/3 protocol, as well as DRM enabled content, encryption and secure tokens to restrict media access.

On 8 June 2021, Fastly reported problems with their CDN service which caused many major websites, such as Reddit, gov.uk, Twitch, Spotify and Amazon, along with major news sources such as The New York Times, The Guardian, CNN and the BBC, to become unavailable. It also affected certain parts of other major websites, such as the servers hosting the emojis used by Twitter, resulting in them becoming inaccessible. The outage was resolved by Fastly after a few hours. Fastly has since stated that the cause of the outage was a software bug triggered by a specific user configuration.

Introduction (Exclude in Live Page)
The reputation marketing field has evolved from the marriage of the fields reputation management and brand marketing, and involves a brand's reputation being vetted online in real-time by consumers leaving online reviews and citing experiences on social networking sites. With the popularity of social media in the new millennium reputation, vetting has turned from word-of-mouth to the digital platform, forcing businesses to take active measures to stay competitive and profitable.

Impact
A study done by Neilsen in 2012 suggests that 70% of consumers trust online reviews (15% more than in 2008), second only to personal recommendations. This gives credibility to the social proof theory; most famously studied by Muzafer Sherif, and highlighted as one of the six principles of persuasion by Robert Cialdini. The increasing number of review websites such as Yelp and ConsumerAffairs attracted the attention of Harvard Business School which conducted a study of online reviews and their effects on restaurants. The study finds that a one-star increase in Yelp rating leads to a 5-7% increase in restaurant revenue having a major impact on local restaurants and a lesser impact on big chains A similar study conducted at UC Berkeley reports that a half-star improvement on a five star rating could make it 30-49% more likely that a restaurant will sell out its evening seats.

Reputation Marketing is often associated with Reputation Management and is seen as a means of handling negative reviews. However, Reputation Marketing differs in that it also seeks to manage positive feed back as a way to attract new customers. Reputation Marketing is not a new strategy. The Better Business Bureau has been around since 1912 and is one of the most notable and well-known consumer review organizations. With the surplus of social media review sites available to the average consumer, businesses are forced to closely monitor their reputations and find new and creative ways to use social media to stay competitive in today's economy.

Influence of Social Networking Sites
Online reviews have a tremendous influence on consumers' purchases since they can read evaluations and opinions of the items they are considering. Amazon was the first company to invite consumers to post reviews on the internet and many others have since done the same. The average customer finds social media more trustworthy than brand-generated marketing making Social Media more effective than television commercials, advertising signs, and internet banners at drawing potential consumers; though reviews by people the consumer does not know are only 2% as effective.

The chart below shows the most viewed review websites of 2017 according to Alexa:

Effects on Businesses
A business's online reputation can have a critical impact on its success or failure, with more than 3 out of every 4 people preferring positively reviewed businesses over negative ones. The impact of negative reviews may even affect a business's ability to secure financial assistance as banks and other financial institutions check a company's online ratings as part of the application process. In today's non-private, social society it would be plausible to see that one's business could be affected by what people say about it, the owner, or employees online.

Reputation marketing and building a good online reputation are critically important. However, they are not stand alone growth strategies. Reputation marketing yields the most positive returns when coupled with other online and offline marketing efforts since the effectiveness of these efforts are increased by a good reputation. The popularity of smart phones have made it almost essential for businesses to be mobile-friendly with click-to-call, click-to-map, and instant review options readily available. Although the food industry seems to be most impacted by online reviews, experts predict that doctors, contractors, surgeons, accountants and many other local business owners will see more and more online reviews due to changes in search engines.

Economical Impact
The benefits of online platforms on the economy are supported by predictions of economic theory, with most consumers preferring convenience, buyer options, and free access to information. Product ratings and reviews are an important factor in how consumers choose products and services, with product ratings (usually in stars) attracting customers while personal reviews have the greater impact on the actual buying decision. Spending increases more than 30% with companies that have positive reviews companies with negative reviews may face a substantial drop in consumer traffic. Research conducted in the United Kingdom by Barclays looking at how greater responses of businesses to the increase of customer feedback would improve business performance, shows that the economic output could grow by an additional 0.07% between 2016 and 2026. The effects could lead to an increase in the economic output of the United Kingdom by £555 million ($747 million) per year over the average growth rate by the year 2026.

Concept Classification, Page 4

Overview
We can group the routine tactics for teaching concept classification into:
 * Presentation
 * Practice
 * Feedback

Let's take a look at each.

Presentation
One presentation tactic is to present a generality that only includes examples that help the learner to classify. When we want the learner to learn other things about the concept, a different type of learning is involved--understanding. However, it is helpful to understand that some concepts are defined on the basis of critical characteristics, whereas others are defined on the basis of functions. These are called criterial definitions and functional definitions, respectively. For example, "chair" can be defined as something to sit in with back support, or it can be defined as having a seat, raised off the ground, and a back. A definition can also have both criterial and functional characteristics. For example, a chair is something to sit in, and it has a back.

Given the purpose of presenting examples as discussed above, we should make sure they are very divergent (as different as possible from each other), and we should present some of them with matched nonexamples. Markle and Tiemann (1969) have identified what they call a "minimum critical subset" of examples, which is one of each of the major types of examples that comprise the concept class. This means that in designing the examples, you must first identify all the major ways that the examples can differ.

Practice
Since the learners need to be able to generalize the classification skill to examples that they have never seen before, your practice should always present new instances (ones not used in the examples), and they should be divergent from each other, including at least one "minimum critical subset" of instances.

Feedback
If learners practice the wrong responses without being corrected, those wrong responses are likely to become difficult to change. Thus, it is very important to correct wrong responses as soon as possible after they occur. This is called "informational feedback." If the learners get it right, you can confirm their response. If they get it wrong, you can give them the correct response with explanations or give them hints that help them to figure out how to correct their own responses. But feedback can serve a second purpose--motivation.

Sequencing
Does this mean that your sequence of routine tactics should be generality-example-practice? Certainly not. We have seen that the instruction should begin with prototype formation. Hence, a prototypical example should lead the instruction, usually with a simultaneous presentation of the generality. Also, young learners tend to benefit from plentiful examples before presentation of the generality, and you may want to use a discovery approach where the generality isn't presented at all until it has been discovered.

Next, it is often helpful for learners to be able to skip around among the instructional tactics. After looking at the generality and prototypical example, a learner might think she already knows the concept. She could then go directly to the more difficult practice to test herself. If she gets it wrong, she could go back and look at an example of medium difficulty, then go and try out a practice item of medium difficulty or take a look at the generality again, and so forth. All that's needed to facilitate such learner control is to clearly label the various routine tactics. This is a more practical and empowering solution to individual differences than designing different instruction for each learner.

Background
The De Molliere family were part of the French aristocracy. The first notable mention of the family was recorded in the late 14th Century and the family can trace its origins to the tiny village of Mollieres; in the Gascony region of South West France. Renowned for their work extracting and sourcing rare jewels for the French Monarchy, the family’s descendants continue their ancestors work by operating within the jewellery trade to this day.

Crest
The family crest carries a ‘field of Gules’ (red), a colour restricted by ancient law to princes and their families since its first appearance in 1454. It can be seen on all ancient literature pertaining to the ‘Molliere’ family.

Etymology
Aside from its shared configuration with the village of Mollieres, the De Molliere family name could have some association with historical words associated with ‘King, Mother, and Earth’ which in these terms could mean either – ‘a Bastard son of King, later legitimised’ or ‘a quarry, or a marshland of rich soil.’

Thumbnail Biographies
1.	Bertrand De Molliere, is the earliest recorded family member, appearing in writing dating from 1399. The De Molliere family is first mentioned in 1399. In July of this year, Bertrand De Molliere was returning from the Battle of Nicopolis when he rendered homage to Charles 6th of France, effectively ‘donating’ all his estates and lands in Ste-Croix, to the Royal Estate, as well as gifting the King with a ruby he'd allegedly acquired from the Ottomans. 2.	Antoine De Molliere, was granted the title of Lord of La Bastidette in September 1540. A historical association with the profession of gemstone mining can be traced herein. as it was well established that a Royal Family member would be distinguished by the riches he possessed, and Diamonds, Gold, Silver and other valuable objects were the focus of much attention and many an expedition to foreign lands were the order of the reigning monarchs of most European nations, including The King Of France. 3.	Jean-Baptiste Poquelin, the famous playwright was also known as 'Molière'. A renowned satirist and comedian, Poquelin adopted the nom-de-plume ‘Moliere’ after the De Molliere family helped settle the artists debts. 4.	Louis De Molliere, held the positions of the King's Counsellor and President of the General Treasury. In 1650, Louis De Molliere travelled to the Kollur Mine on the Krishna River in India and brought back samples of both blue and white diamonds. Upon his return, Louis established a residence in Versailles; where the family still maintain a property to this day. 5.	Gilbert De Molliere, Lord of Albans and of Talans, was named Captain of the Confederation of La Voulte following the revolution of 1789. Gilbert played a minor role in securing the emancipation of the Jews thanks to his influence in the diamond-trading community. Subsequently, the six-pointed mullet (star) was added to the family shield.

1940’s to Present
With France evolving from a Monarchy to a Republic, to an Empire, and then back again to a modern Republic, married with the great exodus of diamond mining from India to Brazil and South Africa, the family retreated from public life and retained only a handful of discerning clients into the 20th Century, most notable being Queen Amelie of Portugal. When the Nazis invaded France in 1940, the uneasy alliance with the Vichy Government meant that the fate of the Jews was in the balance. Roland De Molliere, a young officer in the French Resistance, used his knowledge of the countryside and smuggling routes to assist in the transportation of Jewish families to safety in Spain and North Africa. The coded messages he left in the gardens of the Palace of Versailles - his preferred method of communicating instructions to other cells within the Resistance network - were always signed with the images of 3 diamond shapes; one blue, one white, and one red. Roland was attacked by a German patrol and captured. He was beaten and tortured over many days and the injuries he sustained forced him to remain in a POW hospital until the end of the war. Afterwards, he became a celebrity photographer in Deauville and Cannes, working with actors such as Eddie Constantine, Juliet Greco and Jean-Paul Belmondo, all of whom were reputed to have worn diamonds sourced by Louis De Molliere and passed down through the generations. His grandson, Pascal De Molliere continues Roland’s work today. As a photographer, Pascal’s subjects have included luminaries such as Sir Anthony Sher, Dame Judi Dench and Sir Ian McKellan.

Wikijunior:South America/The Amazon

Part of Wikijunior South America project

The Amazon River is the second longest and the biggest river on Earth. It carries more than 8 times as much water as the second biggest river. The Amazon is also the widest river on Earth, at times six miles wide. A full 20 percent of the water that pours out of the planet's rivers into the oceans comes from the Amazon. The main Amazon River is 6,387 km (3,980 miles). It collects water from thousands of smaller rivers.

Thousands of kinds of fish and turtles live in the Amazon River, including Piranha. The Boto, a kind of freshwater dolphin, also lives in the Amazon River. The Anaconda, the world's largest snake, lives there too.

A Spanish explorer named Francisco de Orellana gave the river its name. He was the first European to travel the length of the river. While exploring the river he encountered a tribe of fierce women. They reminded him of a story from ancient Greece about warrior women named "Amazons". Because of this, he named the river Amazon.

The Amazon Basin is the land covered by the Amazon River. The Amazon Basin is 6,915,000 km2 (2,670,000 mi2). It is bigger than many countries. The land it covers includes parts of Brazil, Peru, Bolivia, Colombia, and Ecuador.

In the Amazon Basin there is also the Amazon Rain-forest. The Amazon Rain-forest is the biggest rain-forest in the world. It covers 5.5 million km2, almost half of all rain-forests in the world. Lots of animals and plants can only be found in the Amazon Rain-forest. In some places, the vegetation in the rain-forest is so dense that sunlight can't reach the ground.

The people who live along the Amazon have used the river for agriculture and transportation for thousands of years.

Zamia restrepoi

Zamia restrepoi is a species of cycad in the family Zamiaceae.

As of 2020, according to a preliminary field investigations the sole remaining known subpopulation is alarmingly small, comprising fewer than 100 adult specimens. There is a potential for the existence of additional subpopulations, but extensive field surveys have been unsuccessful in locating them, necessitating further research to comprehensively understand the species' population distribution and abundance.

Threats
The species underwent a drastic population decline due to the flooding and construction of the "Urra" Dam in 2000, with only around 30 individuals saved. In 2012, a small subpopulation of less than 100 adults was found in two tiny forest patches nearby. These patches are at risk from deforestation caused by agricultural and urban expansion, especially for cattle ranching and crops, making the species' survival uncertain.

Don't Worry About Your Mother-in-Law

Don't Worry About Your Mother-in-Law (Keine Angst vor Schwiegermüttern) is a 1954 West German comedy film directed by Erich Engels and starring Grethe Weiser, Lonny Kellner and Claus Biederstaedt. It was shot at the Wandsbek Studios in Hamburg with sets designed by the art directors Mathias Matthies and Ellen Schmidt,

Plot
Martin Hoffmann is an employee of the Günzlow tobacco company, where there are many pretty girls, above all the boss's secretary, Renate Winter, who has her eye on him. This in turn annoys his girlfriend Gisela Steinberg. To reel him in, she tells him she is pregnant. He is very receptive to the idea of getting married, as he loves her too. Only Mathilde Steinberg, Gisela's mother and caring wife of the music professor Steinberg, is against marriage because she sees no future for the two of them due to their low income. But because of the lie about the expected child, she agrees. Since the young couple does not yet have their own apartment, they have to live in a furnished room with their parents. Martin is bothered by his father-in-law's piano lessons as well as his mother-in-law's constant interference in their affairs. When they rent an apartment and borrow money to furnish it, they soon find themselves overindebted.

When Gisela talks to her friend Lily, she finds a way out of the precarious situation that Martin doesn't need to know about. A friend of her named Mayer, a hosiery manufacturer, is looking for models and he pays very well. So it doesn't take long before Gisela brings home the first 50 marks of self-earned money and gives it to Martin, explaining it as a lottery win. Still believing in her pregnancy, Martin buys a used stroller without thinking about the furniture installments still outstanding. A crisis ensues when he finds out where the money really comes from and that no baby is coming; he is also suspicious of her relationship with the hosiery manufacturer. At some point he is heartbroken and Gisela moves back to her parents. The next step is to contact a divorce lawyer.

After a while Gisela realizes that her love for her husband is still very strong. She secretly returns to their apartment to bring about a reconciliation. Expecting to see him lonely and unhappy, she finds him in Renate Winter's company. Gisela rushes away, offended again. But Renate had only come to see if things were going right. Eventually Gisela and Martin get back together and are soon expecting a baby.
