Cell Biology/Membranes/Phospholipids

Phospholipids | Cholesterol >>

Phospholipids are amphipathic molecules that are made up of a hydrophilic head and a hydrophobic  tail. The head group has a 'special' region that changes between various phospholipids. This head group will differ between cell membranes [types of cells] or different concentrations of specific 'head groups'. The fatty acid tails are also differ, but there is always one saturated and one unsaturated 'leg' of the tail.

Phospholipids are 2 fatty acids one saturated and one unsaturated (shown by the double bond) that are linked to a glycerol.

The Noncovalent Assemblies
For the phospholipid bilayer, even though it consists of hydrophilic heads on the outer membrane, the non-covalent hydrophobic tails of the inner membrane is the key to hold the entire membrane together because there are Van der Waals attractive forces within the cell membrane in which the hydrocarbon tails are closely packed together. With its non-covalent character inside the cell membrane, the hydrophobic molecules can easily pass through the cell membrane through passive diffusion. With this, the cell has control the molecules' movement through the transmembrane proteins complexes such as pores and gates. As for the hydrophilic molecules (such as ions, carbohydrates, proteins, amino acids, and nucleic acids), they require active diffusion in order to pass through the cell membrane because of their polarity and because they are hydrophilic (most non-covalent assemblies of the cell membrane are hydrophobic, such as hydrocarbon chains).

The non-covalent assemblies of the cell membrane can help give rise to bubbles such as liposome, or lipid vesicle, that can deliver drugs into a specific part of the body. The structure of liposome is very similar to the cell membrane's lipid bilayer, and the materials that compose the liposome is identical to cell membrane. Because liposome is a bubble, the structure is shaped like a ring, where the hydrophilic heads are the outer and inner ring while the hydrophobic tails are in between the hydrophilic heads' rings. Because of the ring structure, the liposomes are able to trap aqueous materials such as drugs into their rings. Once the materials are within the ring, the liposomes would deliver them to a specific location in the body, such as cancer cells.

Salome Gluecksohn-Waelsch

Salome Gluecksohn-Waelsch (October 6, 1907 – November 7, 2007) was a German-born U.S. geneticist and co-founder of the field of developmental genetics, which investigates the genetic mechanisms of development.

Biography
Gluecksohn-Waelsch was born in Danzig, Germany to Nadia and Ilya Gluecksohn. She grew up in Germany between World War I and II, where her family faced hardships including her father's death in the 1918 influenza epidemic, severe post-war inflation, and intense anti-Semitic sentiment.

She studied chemistry and zoology in Königsberg and Berlin before she joined Spemann's laboratory at the University of Freiburg in 1928. She commented on both Spemann's nationalist tendencies and prejudice against women scientists; prejudices she faced as a Jewish woman limited her career options in Germany. Salome started to quietly disagree with Spemann as him and his peers believed adamantly that there was no overlap in genetics and embryonic development. However, it would have not been wise to go against her professor at that time so she kept quiet until later on in her professional career. In 1932 she received her doctorate from the University of Freiburg for her work on the embryological limb development of aquatic salamanders. In the same year she married the biochemist Rudolph Schönheimer, with whom she escaped from Nazi Germany in 1933.

She went on to become a lecturer at Columbia University in 1936, bringing embryological acumen to Leslie C. Dunn's genetics laboratory, where she remained for 17 years. Gluecksohn-Waelsch attempted to find mutations that affected early development and discover the processes that these genes affected.

In 1938, she acquired US citizenship, and after Schönheimer's death in 1941 she married the neurochemist Heinrich Waelsch in 1943, with whom she had two children.

Columbia University's policies would not allow her a faculty position, even after many productive years of research. She left Columbia University in 1953 to commence a professorship in anatomy at the newly founded Albert Einstein College of Medicine (AECOM), where she became a full professor in 1958 and held the chair of molecular genetics from 1963 to 1976. She received emeritus status in 1978, but continued researching actively for many more years, publishing and participating in scientific conferences until the 1990s.

She died a month after her 100th birthday in New York City.

Scientific career
Gluecksohn-Waelsch's scientific career started when L.C. Dunn hired her to his project involving breeding mice with a 'T locus' mutation. She presented her work showing that the T-locus product acted as an inducer of mesoderm and axial development. Gluecksohn-Waelsch worked on the genetics of differentiation, the process by which unspecified cells from a fertilized egg adopt their various specific fates in development. As Gluecksohn-Waelsch combined the embryological expertise she had acquired at Spemann's lab with methods of classical mouse genetics, she is considered the founder of mammalian developmental genetics. She co-authored over 100 publications on developmental genetics.

Her research showed that mutations in the Brachyury gene of the mouse caused the aberrant development of the posterior portion of the embryo and she traced the effects of this mutant gene to the notochord, which normally patterns the dorsal-ventral axis.

From 1968 to 1983 she collaborated with Carl Ferdinand Cori, winner of the 1947 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine.

Awards and honors
Gluecksohn-Waelsch's scientific work was honored late in life. In 1979, she became a member of the National Academy of Sciences. She was elected a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 1980. In 1982 the University of Freiburg her with the "Goldene Promotion", and in 1993 American president Bill Clinton presented her with the National Medal of Science. She became an overseas member of the Royal Society in 1995 and was awarded the Thomas Hunt Morgan Medal for "a lifetime contribution to the science of genetics" in 1999.

In 2010, the Freiburg-based Spemann Graduate School of Biology and Medicine (SGBM) and the AECOM Department of Genetics introduced the Salome Gluecksohn-Waelsch Prize for the best dissertation.

Shannon's Law

The Shannon-Hartley Capacity Theorem, more commonly known as the Shannon-Hartley theorem or Shannon's Law, relates the system capacity of a channel with the averaged received signal power, the average noise power and the bandwidth.

This capacity relationship can be stated as:

$$C = W \log_2\left(1+ {S \over N}\right)$$

where:

C is the capacity of the channel (bits/s)

S is the average received signal power

N is the average noise power

W is the bandwidth (Hertz)

Shannon's work showed that the values of S,N, and W set a limit upon the transmission rate. [1]

It is important to note that doubling the bandwidth will NOT double the available capacity. The parameter N, is often defined as the average noise power in an AWGN (Additive White Gaussian Noise) system, is dependent upon bandwidth. In order to double the capacity, the argument within the logarithm, "1 + signal to noise ratio" must be squared.

$$C = W \log_2\left(\left(1+ {S \over N}\right)^2\right)$$ $$C = 2W \log_2\left(1+ {S \over N}\right)$$

Hi, I'm a wikipedian interested in working on the wiki Cookbook... I did a bunch of work on the wiktionary before I decided that it wasn't the best project in the world for a dyslexic contributor! And I've worked on the travel wiki until I ran out of useful contributions to make. So here I am...

At the moment I'm concentrating on Cookbook:Fruit and Cookbook:Vegetables - I think there's enough material there to keep me occupied for the next few months! lol I'm trying to get a decent entry for each fruit and vegie, at least the common ones, including links to recipes that will be, and pointers on how to choose the best, how to cook them, and how not to totally wreck your meal. :)

But if I ever get tired of writing about cooking I may attempt to start a practical arts/crafts module, maybe covering papercrafts how-tos and card-making (my specialty)...

Wikipedia:Today's featured article/October 30, 2019

Sorga Ka Toedjoe is a film from the Dutch East Indies (present-day Indonesia) which had its premiere in Surabaya on 30 October 1940, one of fourteen domestic productions released that year. The black-and-white film featured traditional kroncong music and was targeted at native audiences. It was directed by Joshua and Othniel Wong for Tan's Film, a company owned by the ethnic Chinese brothers Khoen Yauw and Khoen Hian. The Wongs had worked for Tan's since 1938, when they directed the hit film Fatima featuring Rd Mochtar. Sorga Ka Toedjoe was the first production by Tan's Film after Mochtar left the company. Starring Roekiah and Djoemala as a younger couple and Kartolo and Annie Landouw as an older couple, it was a commercial and critical success. Roekiah and Djoemala took leading roles in three more films before Tan's closed in 1942, following the Japanese occupation of the country. Sorga Ka Toedjoe is now believed to be lost.

Battle of Kanjaga

The Battle of Kanjaga was a battle in Africa that was fought between Babatu and the people of Kanjaga. The battle was claimed to have taken place on 14 March 1897. Babatu and his warriors were defeated by the unified forces of Ameria and the French.

History
Babatu initially attacked the people of Kanjaga, defeated them and took their chief called Amnu as captive. Babatu fought with another enemy who was from his ranks called Ameria or Hamaria. Ameria was captured from his home town of Santejan by the Zabarma when he was a young. Ameria was sometimes successful in battles against his former boss. Ameria called himself 'King of the Gurunsi'. It was claimed he rebelled against Babatu because of woman.

The serve as usual was well positioned and her opponent failed to return it in the example you direct us to. I could equally highlight a point in the same game of the match where she serves a really good ace at quite a pace. That was not the norm I grant. She looped the ball long in the service box and though usually very slow particularly by todays standards it was quite effective at keeping her opponent back with hard to handle bounces and she rarely served doubles.

Talk:JuJu (album)

Yes and No like Giant steps
What makes Giant Steps weird is the way Coltrane breaks the octave into 3 equal parts. That doesn't happen in Yes and No. How are the two pieces harmonically similar? <IP_ADDRESS> 08:05, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Changed finally to "Moment's Notice", which is more accurate.

"Yes or No" is not remotely harmonically similar to "Moment's Notice." It's true. The first half of the A section sits on a sus chord then resolves to the parallel major. The second half of the tune goes to two unrelated keys, but not in such a way as is represented in any tune Coltrane ever wrote. Parts of "Yes or No" are similar to parts of scores of other tunes but it's nothing like "Moment's Notice," "Lazy Bird" or any other Trane tune that moves around a lot harmonically. It would actually be better not to try to compare the tune to anything than to compare it to a tune so entirely different. — Preceding unsigned comment added by <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 05:47, 18 August 2011 (UTC)

Issues with this page

 * Shorter can heard playing 'long and volatile' lines on several albums, specifically Nefertiti, Sorcerer with Miles, and later albums such as Soothsayer and Schizophrenia.

 * Naima has several long tones (15) compared with House of Jade which has only 5 and is not as spare as Naima. The melodic curve and motion of Naima is a general downwards motion, House of Jade is generally more upwards and ascending. They are in different keys, and Naima consists exclusively of a melody against a pedal, whereas House of Jade certainly does not, though it may have a pedal in the middle section.

 * Harmonically, 'Yes and No' and 'Moment's Notice' are different. Yes and No rests upon a D pedal for 8 bars, with a quick succession of chords resulting in a Bb major not related to the original pedal and then a an E minor. Moment's Notice has an A section which is essentially 2-5-1's switching between home key and relative minor. The pedal point comes at the end of the A-section, rooted on the dominant, and has chords superimposed over it, whereas Yes and No has a minor chord over a pedal, then a major chord in the same key, having a mode mixture which is not discernable in Moment's Notice. The chords in the B section of Yes and No are a series of 2-5's over 6 bars in G minor, F major, Eb Major and then switching to A minor 7. In Moment's Notice, which is in Eb major (!) the 2-5's are different and the harmonic rhythm, that is, the rate at which these changes come, are much faster than Yes. --<IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 19:54, 3 November 2009 (UTC)

Ludwig Bischoff

Ludwig Bischoff (27 November 1794 – 24 February 1867) was a German educator, musician, critic and publisher.

Life
He was born in Dessau as the son of a cellist from a family of musicians with a long tradition. Thus, he received his first musical education from his father.

From 1812, Bischoff studied philology in Berlin. But already in 1813 he joined the Prussian Cavalry Regiment and took part in the Battle of Leipzig. In 1814, he resumed his studies in Berlin and finished them in 1817.

In spring 1818, he moved to Switzerland, where he found employment as a pedagogue. After his return, he became a teacher at a grammar school in Berlin in 1821 and in 1823 director of the grammar school in Wesel, where Konrad Duden took his Abitur with him.

Bischoff actively participated in the musical life in Wesel and founded a singing and orchestra association. Because of his liberal attitude and his behaviour during the 1848 revolution he had to say goodbye and moved to Bonn in 1849. There, he founded the Rheinische Musikzeitung (1850-59, later Niederrheinische Musikzeitung), which was published in Cologne and whose declared aim was to defend the traditions of classical art against the unreasonable demands of contemporaries. In 1850 he founded the music society "Beethoven Verein" together with others. Only a short time later, this association, consisting of professional musicians and dilettantes, gave subscription concerts.

Bischoff spent the last years in Cologne, where he died of a stroke in 1867 at the age of 72.

Bischoff was one of the main fighters against the "neudeutsche" Wagner direction and was wrongly accused by him (in his writing Judaism in Music) of having coined the term "Zukunftsmusik".

Manual Arts High School

Manual Arts High School is a secondary public school in Los Angeles, California, United States.

History
Manual Arts High School was founded in 1910 in the middle of bean fields, one-half mile from the nearest bus stop. It was the third high school in Los Angeles, California after Los Angeles High School and L.A. Polytechnic High School, and is the oldest high school still on its original site in the Los Angeles Unified School District. The school that would eventually become Lincoln High had been founded decades earlier but was still an elementary school at this time.

One of the school's first teachers was Ethel Percy Andrus (1911 - 1915). In 1916 Dr. Andrus became California's first female high school principal at Lincoln High School in East Los Angeles. She later founded AARP.

After three semesters in an abandoned grammar school building, Manual Arts High School was opened on Vermont Avenue. After the 1933 Long Beach earthquake, the entire campus was rebuilt, constituting the present Manual Arts High School campus adjacent to the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum and USC.

It was in the Los Angeles City High School District until 1961, when it merged into LAUSD.

In 1995, "The Arts" became a Pacific Bell Education First Demonstration Site joining thirteen other demonstration sites in California, and in 1996 the school was named a California Distinguished School. In 1998, Manual Arts was officially granted Digital High School status.

The 2005–2006 school year opened with small learning communities (SLCs), three on each track totaling nine SLCs. Manual Arts was relieved by the opening of Santee Education Complex in 2005.

West Adams High School
The school was relieved in 2007 when West Adams Preparatory High School opened. During the same year, a section of the Manual Arts attendance zone was transferred to Belmont High School.

In July 2008, the school became part of MLA Partner Schools through LAUSD's newly created iDesign Schools Division. MLA Partner Schools, in collaboration with West Ed, will operate Manual Arts on a 5-year performance contract approved by the LAUSD School Board.

The school was expected be relieved by Central Region High School 16 (which became Dr. Maya Angelou High School (Los Angeles, California)) when that school opened in 2011, and by Augustus Hawkins High School when that school opens in 2012.

In the 2011–2012 school year, Manual Arts will return to a traditional school calendar schedule. As a result, several of the school's small learning communities will be restructured and the number of security on campus will be reduced. The 'Blewett Football Field is named in honor of James Blewett who was a standout  Manual Arts football player and longtime Head coach with 9 Los Angeles City titles and 225 wins.

Student body
The racial makeup of the school is mostly Latinos and African Americans, and the neighborhood surrounding the school reflects the same makeup.

During the 2004–2005 school year, MAHS had 3,766 students, including:
 * 3,054 Hispanics (81.1%)
 * 701 African Americans (18.6%)
 * 5 White Americans (1%)
 * 4 Asian Americans (1%)
 * 2 Native Americans (1%)

As of 2010, the school's dropout rate was 68%. More than 90% of students qualified for free or reduced-price lunch provided by the Los Angeles Unified School District.

RV Atair

RV Atair is a research vessel owned and operated by the Federal Maritime and Hydrographic Agency of Germany (BSH). She entered service in 2021 and replaces a 1987-built research vessel also named Atair.

History
BSH issued a request for proposals for a new research vessel in October 2014, and completed design work for the ship early in 2015. The ship was originally planned to have a cost of about €80 million and enter service late in the decade. The €113.8 million contract for overall engineering and construction of the ship was awarded to Kongsberg. Construction of Atair was sub-contracted to two German shipyards—Fassmer Werft and German Naval Yards (GNY). Construction began in December 2017, and the hull and superstructure were launched at German Naval Yards in February 2019. Following some fitting out work, including the installation of the main powerplants, Atair was transported to Fassmer Werft the following month to be completed. Sea trials began in late 2019 and continued through September 2020 ahead of the expected delivery of Atair late in 2020. Upon her entry into service for BSH, which will own and operate Atair, she will replace the 1987-built Atair and operate primarily in the Baltic Sea, the North Sea, and the North Atlantic Ocean.

Design
Atair measures 75 m long, 16.8 m wide, and has a draft of 5 m. She is powered by three Wärtsilä engines, two of which are LNG-capable, that give her a service speed of up to 13 kn through a single propeller. Atair is the first research vessel in the world to have an LNG-fueled propulsion system. The crew complement is 18 sailors, with accommodations for up to 15 researchers. Scientific facilities on board include several types of sonar, laboratories, rigging to support the deployment of off-vessel equipment, and deck space to house additional temporary equipment.

– Laura has been a Wikipedian since August 2004, and has made over 3600 edits. Her edits have been mainly on articles, which have been about a variety of subjects. A significant proportion of her edits have been on talk pages (including user) where she is helpful and civil. Laura already carries out tasks that are administrative in nature, such as participation in projects, reversion of vandalism, and translation. A recent practical example of her abilities was that she was largely responsible for taking an article (Adriaen van der Donck) from scratch to featured article status in fairly quick time, which I think requires not just good writing and editing skills, but also a good understanding of policies and guidelines, and a strong ability to cooperate with others.

Questions for the candidate

Dear candidate, thank you for offering to serve Wikipedia in this capacity. Please take the time to answer a few generic questions to provide guidance for voters:
 * 1. What sysop chores, if any, would you anticipate helping with? Please check out Category:Wikipedia backlog, and read the page about administrators and the administrators' reading list.
 * A. Every once in a while I go on a Special:Newpages kick, which has led to a lot of speedy and copyvio tagging, and as I'm starting to have a lot more time on my hands I expect more of that. So I'd mostly use my admin buttons to do the clear speedies and work on the WP:CP backlog.  Aside from that, I have near 600 pages on my watchlist, so the rollback button would come in handy.  Basically, I think the mop and the bucket would make it easier to clean up the messes I find.

 * 2. Of your articles or contributions to Wikipedia, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?
 * A. Well, zone plate will always have a special place in my heart as the reason I created my account. Of my recent work I'm very proud of Adriaen van der Donck of course, and I have high hopes for female hysteria once I finish compiling some research to balance it out.

 * 3. Have you been in any conflicts over editing in the past or do you feel other users have caused you stress? How have you dealt with it and how will you deal with it in the future?
 * A. I haven't been in any serious conflicts, but I think the most memorable one was over this edit to Highland Park, Texas.  I responded harshly at first to his rather entertaining tone on the talk page, which was not received well.  It was a good lesson in how touchy some can be where their edits are concerned, and I intend on taking the time to be more gentle in such situations.

 * 4 Personally I weight this question at 25%.

What your views on userboxes are? --Masssiveego 10:05, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

 * A. Personally, I don't use many because I think that they're clutter. But my philosophy has always been that if someone enjoys something that isn't hurting anyone else, what right do I have to interfere.  In that respect I don't see how they're different than anything else people put on their userpages everyday.

 * 5 Peronsally I weight this question at 25%

When do you think it's best to block a vandal who deletes out more then half a page more then 3 times over 24 hours and one minute? --Masssiveego 10:05, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

 * A. Like any situation, it would depend on the circumstances.  I would probably block someone who had been repeatedly warned and had demonstrated such behavior before.  A new user who hadn't been warned would cerainly be a different situation.

 * The above discussion is preserved as an archive of the discussion. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the talk page of either this nomination or the nominated user). No further edits should be made to this page.

From Shreve & Sharp (1970), two paragraphs of refs to prior papers:

 * Deep holes have been drilled into glaciers to obtain samples (Langway, 1958, p. 337; Miller, 1958; Patenaude and others, 1959 ; Ragle and others, 1960 ; Kamb and Shreve, 1963[a], [b] ; Shreve and Kamb, 1964 ; Gow and others, 1968), to determine ice thickness (Mathews, 1959, p. 448- 50; LaChapelle, 1965, p. 609- 12), to locate englacial and subglacial streams, to measure temperatures (Ward and Orvig, 1953, p. 160) and closure rates, and to determine the variation with depth of the component of flow velocity perpendicular to the hole. This last is essential for testing proposed flow laws for glacier ice, for evaluating the constants in these laws, and for determining the velocity of slip of the glacier on its bed.
 * The first hole intended for determining flow velocity at depth was drilled by Louis Agassiz in the Unteraar Gletscher around 1840 (Forbes, 1859, p. 55). Since then bore holes for this purpose have been made in Austria on the Hintereisferner (Blumcke and H ess, 1909; H ess, 1933, p. 42- 43), in Switzerland on the J ungfraufirn (Perutz, 1949, 1950; Gerrard and others, 1952), in Alaska on Malaspina Glacier (Sharp, 1953, 1958, p. 638- 41 ) and Taku Glacier (Miller, 1958), in Canada on Saskatchewan Glacier (Meier, 1960, p. 28- 32), Athabasca Glacier (Savage and Paterson, 1963 ; Paterson and Savage, 1963[b] ; Savage and Paterson, 1965), and Salmon Glacier (Mathews, 1959), and in Norway on Austerdalsbreen (Mcmbel's of the Cambridge Austerdalsbre Expedition, 1958, p. 398; Ward, 1961 ).

Peer Review
Two things stood out for me right away: 1.) The article seems to lack an introduction. 2.) The first two sentences are in "passive voice."

On the plus side, the piece seems very thorough, well researched and well-cited.

This is my first peer review, so I'm keeping it short in case I'm doing something wrong (and if so, please advise.) BudJillett (talk) 03:28, 31 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the comments. I've reworded the first sentence so it has a bolded "ice drilling" at the start; it's not required for an article to do that but it's a good idea when possible.  I also got rid of the passive voice in the first sentence, but I think it's necessary in the second one. Mike Christie (talk - contribs -  library) 11:27, 31 December 2017 (UTC)
 * You're welcome. The article starts off 1000% better, I think, now that you've restated the subject and gave a little overview. Night and day. Good job. Some people avoid passive voice altogether, which I think is also a mistake. A good use for passive voice is when the thing acted upon would be overpowered by having a strong subject at the beginning of the sentence. In the second sentence you might be able to make a case for that, but I still think the meaning will be clear with an active subject. Something like:

 * "Field scientists (or whatever you call them) place instruments in the drilled holes to record temperature, pressure, or to gather other scientific data (fixed the end of the sentence, too).

 * OR: "to gather scientific data, such as temperature and pressure."

 * Thoughts? BudJillett (talk) 17:09, 31 December 2017 (UTC)
 * I'm hesitant, because it's not only scientists that drill through ice. It's only mentioned a couple of times in the article, but ice fishing is a big reason for the sale of ice augers like the one pictured.  I also thought of something along the lines of "Instruments placed in the holes can record temperature..." but it's not really much better and reads a little less fluently to me. Mike Christie (talk - contribs -  library) 20:22, 31 December 2017 (UTC)

Record
This page holds the record of most times as a featured article, doesn’t it? Cowboysfan3214 (talk) 01:20, 29 June 2018 (UTC)
 * As far as I can tell, no. This article was only promoted to featured article status for the first time last March, and this is the first time it has been on the Main Page as today's featured article. Mz7 (talk) 08:18, 29 June 2018 (UTC)

Second. Cowboysfan3214 (talk) 14:29, 29 June 2018 (UTC)

Ice-core image
The lede image is File:GISP2D1837 crop.jpg, which goes horizontally. The article is about the drilling, not ice core, and the goal is to illustrate drilling down not across. Why is the lede image not actually about drilling (some pretty photograph of apparatus, maybe)? And why, if an ice core is to be used, is it not vertically like its native position in relevance to the drilling of it? Even the caption as it is does not say which end was top (or was which year of history), so it is not clear how this maps to a timeline, which is the reason for doing the core in the first place. DMacks (talk) 14:44, 29 June 2018 (UTC)
 * It's horizontal because if you put it vertically it's so narrow that the caption looks horrible. If there's a good way to fix that, I agree it would be better vertical.  I hadn't thought about giving the details of the years; that can probably be found in the relevant papers.  I also agree a nice picture of modern drilling equipment (say something from here or here) would be great, but there's nothing that's justifiable as fair use, as far as I can see. Mike Christie (talk - contribs -  library) 16:26, 29 June 2018 (UTC)
 * I agree that this is extremely unappealing. The first few words of the article are jumbled together so far I see only one word per line, literally. How about we just put the image at the top of the page? PseudoSkull (talk) 17:08, 29 June 2018 (UTC)
 * If any significant number of viewers are seeing it that way, I agree it should go, but I'm surprised because even on my mobile phone I get either several words to the left of the image or else (in mobile mode) the image is at the top by itself. I'd be fine with just deleting the image; it's illustrative of the reason for drilling, but it's not critical for understanding the article. Mike Christie (talk - contribs -  library) 17:18, 29 June 2018 (UTC)

 * How about File:ACFEL ice auger core remover barrel.jpg (currently in the section)? To the lay reader's eye it looks like some sort of drill thing, but with maybe a cylinder of something extra? Exactly!--that hooks the reader into something nice-looking and semi-familiar. Even nicer if we could rotate it 90° clockwise so (as before) it's orniented with the core in its native orientation. DMacks (talk) 21:03, 29 June 2018 (UTC)

 * And would File:Drilling mechanical-drill-head.jpg (color and high definition) be a good replacement for File:ACFEL ice auger shoe side view.jpg (black and white, and weird glare that obscures the central hole) for the section? DMacks (talk) 21:05, 29 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Both seem good to me. Can you make the changes?  I’m at JFK which is IP range blocked; I’m VPNed into my work computer to post this but it’s not a great connection. Mike Christie (talk - contribs -  library) 21:32, 29 June 2018 (UTC)
 * ✅x2. I also synced the (now)-lede caption with the image-description page (mentioning the ice core itself that is visible). I found an alternate place for the previous ice-core image also. DMacks (talk) 22:02, 29 June 2018 (UTC)

See this paper; was the source for "Come up with a much faster drill that can analyze ice as it goes down, and doesn't need to bring cores back up", which would fit better here. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 22:52, 18 February 2020 (UTC)

In November 2005 the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees rejected the first Wikiversity project proposal and instructed the Wikiversity community to modify the proposal to "exclude online-courses". These words (exclude online-courses) caused confusion and consternation within the Wikiversity community. Many members of the Wikiversity community continued to develop plans for Wikiversity that relied upon a collection of online courses covering academic topics typical of a conventional curriculum (for example, see b:Wikiversity:School of Media Studies). If Wikiversity were to exclude online courses, what would be left?

Learning resources
Other Wikimedia projects such as Wikipedia and Wikibooks produce online learning resources (an encyclopedia and textbooks). Wikiversity can produce and host all types of learning resources that are not already found at other Wikimedia projects. How does the idea of Wikiversity as a host of online learning resources satisfy the Board's request that the Wikiversity community "clarify [the] concept of e-learning" that will guide Wikiversity?

Styles of learning
Not all educational institutions emphasize or favor the same Learning styles. Many bricks-and-mortar educational institutions adopt a default approach to education that emphasizes a rather passive role for learners who listen to lectures and read textbooks. Some students prefer a more active style of "learning by doing". Wiki projects such as Wikipedia allow for both passive learning (reading encyclopedia articles) and active learning by participating in the production of articles. The modified Wikiversity project proposal that was approved by the Board calls for two major components of Wikiversity:1) learning materialsand2) learning activities.

The cure for Nupedia disease
Nupedia was the free online encyclopedia that "gave birth to" Wikipedia. Nupedia relied on a conventional approach in which experts crafted encyclopedia articles that were subjected to peer review. The problem was, Nupedia was too slow. Soon after Wikipedia was begun it became clear that collaborative wiki-based authoring of encyclopedia articles was possible. Wiki was the cure for the "Nupedia disease" of slow article production. In retrospect we can see that the basic unit of production for Nupedia was a finished encyclopedia article. The method of production was to find an expert to write each article. In contrast, the basic unit of production at a wiki is the page edit and non-experts are an important source of good page edits. It is much easier to find people who can provide a "bite-sized" nugget of good information in the form of an edit than it is to find people who will produce complete articles. Collaborative editing is the cure for Nupedia disease.

Learning projects
Wiki-mediated collaboration is a cure for Nupedia disease because it transforms a difficult "one-author process" into a more easy to accomplish "multi-author process". Nupedia tried to produce a finished article with one expert authoring an entire article. Good writing is always a learning experience for an author. The wiki way is to allow collaborative authoring by many co-authors and we can conceptualize the process as a "learning project". All of the collaborating authors learn about a topic while they create an article about the topic. While trying to create learning resources such as encyclopedia articles and textbooks, wiki projects become learning projects that editors participate in.

Courses as learning projects
Learning resources such as textbooks and encyclopedia articles can be produced by learning projects (wiki editing projects). If your goal is to use a wiki to produce and host learning materials such as lessons and courses, then you need to think about how best to harness the power of wiki to assist you. That means making use of interested non-experts and thinking about the required wiki editing as a kind of learning project. Wikiversity needs to define learning projects that will accomplish its educational mission. At other Wikimedia projects, the learning that is inherent in wiki editing is a natural by-product of working towards the projects' main goals. Wikiversity inverts this "main goal" > "learning by-product" relationship.

At Wikiversity the main goal is to facilitate learning. When we correctly establish learning projects, they provide an environment for "learning by doing" that can lead to the production of "by-products" such as lessons and courses. At Wikiversity the relationship between learning and learning materials is:"Wikiversity participants learn by doing" (main goal) > "Wikiversity participants produce learning materials as a by-product of their activities."Rather than wait for some expert to produce a lesson or a course at Wikiversity, everyone who is interested in a topic can get started and engage in exciting learning projects. Scholarly pursuit of learning projects will result in steady accumulation of learning resources related to the topic of study.

Creating courses the wiki way
Rather than try to produce conventional courses in one step (Nupedia disease), Wikiversity can start with learning projects. One type of learning project might be given crass titles such as "learn how to produce a course for topic X". But that misses the mark. Most Wikiversity participants do not want to produce a conventional course for topic X; each Wikiversity participant just wants to learn information about topic X that will allow them to move towards their personal learning goals. If that learning can be accomplished by a non-conventional learning project, then who needs to wait for conventional courses to become available?

If we take on the task of using wiki technology to create conventional courses we are led to the realization that courses can be constructed by wiki participants who engage in collaborative learning projects. The Board directed the Wikiversity community away from conventional courses because conventional courses are not a good fit for wiki technology and because wiki technology can provide learners with more flexible non-conventional learning activities. Conventional courses compact participants into a passive one-size fits all lump that can be pounded into shape according to the factory model of education. The wiki way of learning is to let each participant explore their personal interests. Wikiversity needs to provide a rich environment of "learn by doing" activities that will attract and intellectually stimulate online learners. Once online learners are hooked on Wikiversity they will do all sorts of wonderful things....maybe even construct some conventional courses. But then again, maybe by the time we are done discovering what can be accomplished with unconventional learning projects we will have forgotten all about courses.

Anaranya

Anaranya (अनरण्य) is a king of the Suryavamsha (Solar dynasty) featured in Hindu literature. His legend is described in the Hindu epic Ramayana.

Legend
Anaranya is a descendant of Ikshvaku, and a king of Ayodhya. According to the Ramayana, after the rakshasa king Ravana gained the Pashupatastra from Shiva, he declared war against humans, and decided to battle Anaranya. A fierce battle ensued between their forces. Due to the sorcery employed by the rakshasas, Anaranya, along with his army, were defeated. He was thrown away from his chariot after being struck down by Ravana's mace. Even as the rakshasa derided the king and his dynasty, Anaranya issued a curse that Ravana would meet his end by one of his descendants from the same dynasty. This curse comes true when Rama defeats Ravana.

Johan Adam Schwartz

Johan Adam Schwartz (26 November 1820 – 31 December 1874) was a Danish turner. He succeeded his father as owner of the decorative arts firm I.G. Schwartz & Søn in Copenhagen and eventually handed it down to his own son Frans Schwartz. He was president of Industriforeningen from 1746 to 1751. A proponent of improved training of craftsmen in Denmark, he was involved in the establishment of both Industriskolen (The Industry School) and Håndværkerskolen (Craftsmen's School).

Early life and background
Schwartz was born on 26 November 1820 in Copenhagen, the son of turner J. G. Schwartz (1789–1864) and Augusta M. Frels (1791–1885). He attended St. Petri School and Borgerdyd School. After his confirmation, he became an apprentice in his father's workshop at Sværtegade 3. Aged 17, he was sent on a study trip to Paris and London under supervision of the goldsmith Jørgen Balthasar Dalhoff, 20 years his senior, who saw to it that Schwartz diligently visited the cities' museums and manufactories, drawing what he saw.

Career
On Schwartz' return to Denmark, he became an employee in his father's workshop, chiefly with responsibility for its aesthetic and artistic direction but also as the one with the knowledge of writing that his father had never acquired. He completed his masterpiece and was granted citizenship in 1846, and was the following year made a partner in his father's business which from then on traded as I. G. Schwartz & Søn.

Other occupations
Already in 1839, aged 18, Schwartz published an article in the magazine Søndagen in which he argued in favour of an improved training of craftsmen. The article instigated a discussion in Industriforeningen which, chiefly at Schwartz's initiative, in 1841, resulted in the establishment of Industriskolen in Snaregade. Schwartz became a member of Industriforeningen's board of representatives (repræsentantskab) in 1842, was a member of a number of its committees, including the Committee for Sunday Meetings for Young Craftsmen 1847–1849, and was president of the association from 1857 to 1861. He worked to afford artists more influence on craftsmen's work. He was an enthusiastic supporter of G. F. Hetsch's efforts to integrate art and craftsmanship. Teaching by his own example, in his own workshop he often collaborated with artists, especially the sculptor C. Peters.

Schwartz was a member of the Copenhagen City Council from 1859 to 1865. He was also a member of Kunstflidslotteriet, a lottery established in 1860 to contribute to the rebuilding of Frederiksborg Castle. He was together with Vilhelm Klein responsible for the preparation of Håndværkerskolen in 1868. He was also elected the same year as a member of Arbejdernes Byggeforening.

Personal life and legacy
Schwartz married Thora Lovise Kühl (16 February 1816 – 8 March 1875), a daughter of auditor and Livjæger captain Casper Joachim Kyhl (1790–1853) and Louise Dorothea Frels (1793–1880), on 23 February 1847.

Schwartz was created a Knight in the Order of the Dannebrog in 1752. He died on 31 December 1874 and is buried in Assistens Cemetery. I. F. Schwartz & Søn was continued by his son Frans Schwartz.

The street J.A. Schwartz Gade in Kartoffelrækkerne is named after him.
