Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Snooze. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Snooze~enwikiversity that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 00:01, 18 March 2015 (UTC)

The concept of irreducible complexity/video workshop

Figure 4 - ribozyme activity
An animated ribozyme. The video needs to illustrate motion in the structure of the ribozyme during substrate binding/unbinding and during catalysis. The video will show movement of a substrate into and out of the active site of the ribozyme.

A decision has to be made about the level of structural detail in the molecules. Maybe there should be a preliminary video that illustrates both a detailed molecular structure of a ribozyme and a more diagrammatic structural model. During the "ribozyme activity" video it might be useful to have a "zoom in" part that shows more detail during the actual chemical reaction.

substrate: a choice needs to be made for the exact substrate to use for the initial ribozyme "R". The choice should make a useful point about a type of reaction that would be useful in the RNA world.

Figure 5 - amino acid binding
So what peptide/amino acids should be used to illustrate allosteric regulation of ribozyme "R"? How much molecular detail is needed to show that binding of the amino acids can couple to conformational change at the active site? Can the animation just show faster catalysis? Is it useful to show both an original, slow, non-amino acid-binding ribozyme and a newly evolved, faster version of the ribozyme that does bind amino acids?

Are there other ways that amino acid binding to 'R" could be beneficial besides an allosteric enhancement of enzyme activity? Maybe just protection from destruction of the ribozyme? Any evidence that amino acid/peptide binding can stabilize ribozmes?

There might be some useful results and theory about positively-charged amino acids that bind non-covalently to the phosphate backbones of RNA molecules. ribonuclease P as a model system? Also, there may be a relevant type of covalent amino acid-RNA interaction. (ADP-ribosylation? uridylylation?)

Nuclear ADP-Ribosylation Reactions in Mammalian Cells: Where Are We Today and Where Are We Going?

Does the non-biological origin of amino acids need to be illustrated? Would cells have biosynthesized amino acids before having a translation system?

Biochemistry Exam Study Guide/BMC01

University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health Biochemistry Exam 2 Study Guide BMC01

Draw the structure of a dNTP (deoxynucleoside-5'-triphosphate). Do not draw the structure of a nucleotide base, but simply designate its position with the letter “N”. However, ALL other atoms and bonds should be shown (including hydrogens). Label the sugar carbon atoms 1' to 5'. Draw an “X” through the bond that is broken during incorporation of this nucleotide into the primer strand by DNA polymerase.

A.

B. Guanine-cytosine base pairs have a higher denaturation temperature (and are therefore more stable). This is because G-C base pairs form three hydrogen bonds instead of two, like A-T. Reference page 14.

As a side note, high salt concentrations can also stabilize DNA by shielding negatively charged phosphate groups from each other.

C. Uracil. DNA pyrimidines include cytosine and thymine, but not uracil.

D. Thymine. UV radiation can catalyze covalent bonding between adjacent pyrimidine (especially thymine) bases. The result is a thymine dimer. Reference page 19.

E. 5-fluorouracil (5-FU). 5-FU is administered to the patient and then converted to 5-F-dUMP by the pyrmimide base salvage pathway. So to be more accurate, it is 5-F-dUMP that is an irreversible inhibitor of thymidylate synthase. Reference page 78.

F. Hypoxanthine. The pathway AMP --> A --> I --> hypoxanthine is catalyzed by phosphatase, adenosine deaminase (ADA) and nucleoside phosphorylase, respectively. Reference page 76.

As a side note, deficiency in this pathway (ADA in particular) leads to the immunodeficient phenotype SCID.

G. 7-methylguanine. This is the 5' cap. Reference page 36.

H. Adenine. This is the 3' poly(A) tail. Reference page 36.

Biochemistry Exam Study Guide/BMC23

University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health Biochemistry Exam 2 Study Guide BMC23

A) This result indicates one of two things.   1) The intron that is now expressed in the protein contains a stop codon. 2) The intron that is now expressed has a number of base pairs not divisible by 3 changing the reading frame of exon 2 and creating a stop codon in the early part of exon 2. Both result in early termination of the polypeptide making it shorter.

B) Since less polypeptide is made but is normal in structure we can infer that the mRNA is not as stable and does not last as long to have many polypeptides made.  Therefore, the additonal 3' UTR mus have a destabilization factor causing normal structure synthesis of the polypeptide, but at a reduced level.

C) The asterisk is very close to the beginning of the translated region of Exon 1 and causes a 30 AA shorter peptide.  Therefore it is likely the the AUG codon has been changed.  Due to this change the ribosome goes 30 codons further to find another AUG which is why the polypeptide is 30 AA's shorter.  The reason for the change in the localization of this protein is that the 30 AA's that were skipped in translation contained a signal sequence.  Without this sequence the protein never hooks up with the ER and just hangs out in the cytoplasm forever.

I Want To Use C++ To Create A Graphical User Interface (GUI)
But unfortunately I am unsure, and in fact doubtful, that my current college education will go into such a thing. Mostly the reason I'm interested in GUI in the first place is that my aspirations include Video Game design and/or programming. As of now, my Windows XP system utilizes Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003, and I still need to find some kind of C++ environment for my Ubuntu system. If anyone could tell me of a good C++ environment for said system and help me get started with C++ GUI, then please do. Also, I've learned most of the C++ already listed in Wikiversity, it was covered in my Freshman year.

Thank You.

Liberal arts
This site has information on just about every college/university course, and so I came here looking for information on liberal arts studies (generalized studies) to see what a typical Liberal Arts/General Studies major looks like. However, there's no page nor portal for liberal arts, is there any particular reason why not? Or, if you know what a Liberal Arts major looks like, please tell. Thanks. --Laura 01:12, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Things are still very much under development around here. If you want to make some pages for "liberal arts", I can help you with that. --JWSchmidt 02:08, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
 * From some (quick) searching, "Liberal Arts" seems to be a general word to encompass subjects that will contribute a broad-based education, like philosophy, psychology, music, art history, archaeology, languages, etc. Wikiversity has materials on many of these subjects (though not necessarily in great detail yet). Cormaggio talk 02:26, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

 * Please understand that materials here do not necessarily reflect at all what similarly titled courses may be like at a "real" university.
 * At my alma mater, the General Education requirements included:

 * 2 Writing classes (first-year and advanced)
 * basic Math (often waived)
 * Biology
 * Natural Science (1 course other than Biology)
 * Physical Science (a course combining Physics, Chemistry, Geology, and Astronomy. This was in addition to a Natural Science course)
 * Social Science (gov't/psychology/sociology)
 * American Heritage (a combination of US History, Gov't, and Econ)
 * Foreign Language (the equivalent of 4 semesters' worth. This could be replaced with advanced math or music courses, however.)
 * Civilization (2 semesters of World History)
 * Arts & Letters (1 course that could be considered to broaden one's cultural perspective)
 * Religion (12 credits)
 * 120 credits total required for graduation (if you don't have another major, that's a lot of electives)
 * That could give you an example of an idea of what a Liberal Arts degree at one university would entail. The Jade Knight 04:27, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

Thanks. I'm going to create a Liberal Arts portal. Laura Bogart 12:54, 1 August 2007 (UTC)

drug testing

 * The only way I know of is to cut off any hair grown during drug use. If it's been a long time since you've used drugs, you won't need to cut it very short. StuRat 00:34, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

How do you study effectively?
School homework has always been no problem for me, and I usually finish all of my Homework before the school day is over. But last year when I actually had homework, I didn't know how to study. I would just re-read material and practice math problems. Neither seemed to help me. Flashcards didn't help either. Anyone know effective techniques? --68.43.39.35 19:56, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

 * Can you identify what type of problem you are having ? I'm assuming you do poorly on tests, but is it because you didn't know what to study, knew to study it but couldn't memorize it for the test, or you just freeze up during tests ?

 * The first step is to decide what's important, then you can work on memorizing that. You can judge what's important based on what questions they ask at the end of the chapter or what problems they pose.  If the book is yours to keep you can use a highlighter on the passages in the book that answer those questions.  I'd aim for maybe one thing per page that you highlight on average (although you may have some pages with lots of good info and others with very little).  I would expect flash cards would help, provided you have the important facts on them.

 * Also, be sure to take good notes in class. The teacher will likely cover only some of the material in the book, and that's your clue that this material is more important.  Also, they will sometimes say outright "now this is important" or even "this will be on the test", so be sure to take notes on, and later memorize, those items.  You can circle them or highlight them while taking the notes so you remember that they are important.  StuRat 01:58, 7 August 2007 (UTC)

 * Create your own notebook regarding the class or subject as if in twenty years you will need to use it for reference material in conducting your own class can be very educational. Tutoring others in the material, say in a study group, can also broaden and deepen your command of the material.  Mirwin 13:59, 1 September 2007 (UTC)

mixing a monomer black pigment with oil based polyurethane

Intracranial pressure
Copied from here: w:Wikipedia:Reference_desk/Archives/Science/2007_August_11.

My EEG revealed a slightly high intracranial pressure. However IMHO after downing the pressure to normal I will a bit more passive and slow. Does it make much sense? --Vado

 * I believe that doctors, upon finding something "abnormal" (outside the typical range), often decide, incorrectly, that they need to correct it. If this condition has been with you all your life, your body may have adapted to it and may actually function better with that pressure.  It may adjust to the new pressure, or it may not, only time will tell. --StuRat 04:11, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

Conflicts
--'''ARE ALL CONFLICTS DYSFUNCTIONAL? COMMENT'''.. please help me and send some good answers and explain why have you said a yes or no...

Why was Karl Rove so considered a political genius by many?
--192.223.226.5 17:34, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

 * The "win at any cost" approach Rove took, which apparently included illegal activities, seemed to work, at first. However, once Democrats gained control of Congress (mainly due to Iraq), the Republicans could no longer block Congressional investigations of fellow Republicans, like Rove.  Then, once Rove's illegal activities were exposed to the light of day they hurt the Republicans far more than they had initially helped. StuRat 22:47, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

 * "illegal activities" <-- does anyone know of a published analysis of the legality of political figures such as Rove making decisions about how the Justice Department makes hire/fire decisions? --JWSchmidt 03:57, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

 * As I understand it, the issue was employees of the Justice Department who refused to charge Democrats with crimes, on highly questionable grounds, right before the 2006 mid-term elections, so they would be discredited and lose the elections. Rove then convinced Attorney General Alberto Gonzales to fire seven employees, claiming it was for "performance reasons" (that is, saying they were incompetent).  Not surprisingly, those seven objected to this treatment.  While this type of behavior is a total perversion of the purpose of the Justice Department, abusing it for blatant political goals, contrary to the service of justice, I'm not sure of any statutes under which Rove could be charged with a crime. StuRat 05:48, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

 * I might not remember this correctly from last Spring, but I thought Monica Goodling testified under oath that she had broken civil service rules with respect to her DOJ duties and that she had done so under the direction of the White House staff and political appointees in the DOJ. The President then refused to let White House staff like Rove testify under oath about their role in Monica Goodling's activities. So my question is really a hypothetical: if White House staff ordered Monica Goodling to break civil service rules, is there something like a conspiracy charge that could be brought against people in the White House who told Monica Goodling to break the civil service rules? --JWSchmidt 06:05, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

 * I don't know if there is a traditional legal prosecution route. However, according to Impeachment, impeachment applies to '"The President, Vice President, and all civil officers of the United States" who may only be impeached and removed for "treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors."'  So, they could be impeached for relatively small offenses.  This has been widely open to Congressional interpretation, but abusing the Justice Department for purely political goals seems like an area that would fall well within those guidelines.  Alternatively, Congress could go with Contempt of Congress charges against those who either lie under oath or refuse to testify. StuRat 13:55, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

What is the purpose and function of RSS in terms of bloging?
--192.223.226.5 13:37, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

 * RSS is a protocol for basically distributing content and making it clear when content has changed. For blogs this works well for viewing many blogs at a time in a common format (or using a blog reader), and it also can alert readers when a new blog entry has been added. --24.147.86.187 23:10, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

Health risks for sitting in front of a computer
--196.46.106.90 13:45, 27 August 2007 (UTC) What are health risks for someone who sits in front of a computer for 6 hours or more ?

 * 1) The lack of exercise and unhealthy eating habits (eating fast food while at the computer) may lead to obesity and other medical problems associated with a sedentary lifestyle.

 * 2) Eyestrain is a concern.

 * 3) Radiation is a concern with CRT (cathode ray tube) monitors, but not with newer LCD and plasma screen displays.

 * 4) An uncomfortable chair lacking sufficient padding may lead to sores on the legs and back.

 * 5) Back strain may result from poor sitting posture.

 * 6) Carpal tunnel syndrome and other repetitive movement disorders may occur from using the keyboard, mouse, joystick, etc., repeatedly. StuRat 00:17, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

 * Social isolation can also become a problem if computer use grows excessive such as with addictive game playing or non interactive web browsing. Mirwin 02:42, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

 * Agreed, that makes a nice addition to the list. StuRat 15:42, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

UFOs

 * Unidentified Flying Objects fall into several categories:

 * 1) Weather phenomenon, such as ball lightning.

 * 2) Astronomical phenomenon, such as the Moon reflecting off water and then clouds to make the clouds in an area glow.

 * 3) Human activity, such as weather balloons and experimental aircraft.

 * 4) Hoaxes.

 * 5) Mirages, such as those generated when a distant light passes through rising heat waves, which can cause the light to appear to move rapidly.

 * 6) Unexplained. This doesn't mean they are aliens, mind you, just that no explanation has yet been found. StuRat 00:17, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

--122.164.104.34 13:16, 28 August 2007 (UTC) I have realised that am a highly confused person. I analyse a lot and finall dont come to a conclusion. Please tell me how to stabilize myself in my ideas, decisions and views too.

 * How about if you use a schedule to keep yourself on track:

 * 1-2 PM record PRO and CON arguments.

 * 2-3 PM rank arguments by importance.

 * 3-4 PM decide based on arguments and rankings.

 * How long you allow for each step will vary by the importance of the decision. If deciding whether to accept a job in another country and move your entire family, several days for each step might be appropriate.  When deciding whether to have spaghetti for dinner, I'd keep it to a minute for each step.

 * There are also meds to help people stay focused, like Adderall, but they have side effects, so I'd use those only if no other method will work. StuRat 13:48, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

Screenwriting
If there is a foreign film about a true story involving a countries traditonal legend can anyone from another country adapt the story into their own version?

 * Why not? Traditional legends, by their nature, cannot be under copyright.  —162.119.64.112 21:35, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

 * But make sure you are adapting from the legend, and not the adaptation. You and I could both adapt from Grimm's Cinderella, but if my adaptation was mistakenly on the Disney version, and I adapt some of the Disney-specific aspects (singing mice, for example), I'd be in legal trouble. --24.147.86.187 23:08, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

how to pack a set of cabinet
--121.41.17.144 06:40, 31 August 2007 (UTC) I will move to a new house and want to pack my cabinet then ship to the new house, but I don't know how to pack it.could you please show me the sketch-map.Thank you.

 * First, obviously, you should empty it of it's contents. If it has drawers, remove them, along with any loose shelves.  Next, secure any doors that are prone to fly open (by tying string around the cabinet and attaching to the door handles, for example).  You could also remove the doors, but I don't think that's necessary.  Finally, wrap the entire cabinet in an old blanket or bubble wrap to prevent damage during the move, and do the same for any drawers and shelves.  Also, don't stack anything heavy on the cabinet, as most cabinets aren't designed to bear a heavy load.  These instructions assume that the cabinet is in reasonably good shape.  If it's particularly fragile, then additional steps would need to be taken. StuRat 18:57, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

 * Also, if these are "built-in" cabinets, the "non-show" surfaces (such as the back) may have rough edges and/or exposed nails, etc. You will need to be especially careful when covering those, to ensure that they don't damage other furniture during the move.  Try to arrange the cabinets in the moving truck so that the rough surfaces are adjacent to each other, as well. StuRat 19:01, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Lunar Boom Town/Building and construction facility

So is this facility pictured as a warehouse renting space to others or as an overall construction tools rental business? Mirwin 15:27, 22 September 2007 (UTC)

Glass roads and foundations

Instead of producing bricks for roads out of Lunar regolith, it may be faster and more efficient to make roads of glass as outlined in this article: http://www.space.com/adastra/adastra_moondust_060223.html

""Picture a buggy pulled behind a rover that is outfitted with a set of magnetrons," he suggests. (A magnetron is the heating element in a microwave oven.) "With the right power and microwave frequency, an astronaut could drive along, sintering the soil as he goes, making continuous brick down 0.5 m deep," Taylor points out. He adds that by changing the power settings the astronaut could melt the top inch or two of the soil to make a glass road."

I thought it would be a headquater for building infrastructure. Sirstubby 03:40, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

Lute

Lute is a family of stringed instruments typically having a pear-shaped body, a rounded back, and a decorated sound hole called a Rose. Some specific examples of these instruments are lutes, theorbos, archlutes and others. Although the tunings of the different kinds of lutes vary, similar techniques can be applied to most of them. Lutes are not played with the exactly the same technique that one uses with a modern classical guitar, but some similarities exist nonetheless.

History
The Lute is an instrument dating back to the Medieval, Renaissance, and Baroque periods. The Lute was aspired from the Arabic Oud which it gets both its structure and tunings from. Its evolution primarily was the additions of bass accompaniment and slight tone difference varying between 415 Hz and 424 Hz. During this past century, the Lute has made a comeback with traditional music bringing old composers' (some very well known) music with it including very well known musicians like John Dowland, Thomas Campion, Wiess, Bach, and even Vivaldi.

Holding the Lute
The Lute is held with the lower pitches on the top closer to the player's face and with the rounded back against the chest. It is tricky at first to balance the lute because of the shape. My advice is to put the deepest point of the rounded back (the back's parabolic point, approximately at the center of the instrument.) The hand should be approximately parallel with the strings and the left hand should be relaxed with the thumb on the back and the other fingers in the front by the strings.

Organic chemistry/Resonance drawings

One thing which organic teachers seem to love torturing you with, and which your therefore have to know, is drawing resonance images.

Resonance structures are often used in replacement of the Lewis structures which, in the mind of an organic chemist, has a flaw when it comes to showing where lone pair/pi electrons are stationed in the molecular structure. For electrons are not always to be found in one spot, as this typical Bohr model of a chlorine atom would have you believe, but are constantly zipping around at such a velocity that

Wiki process

Welcome to the Wikiversity learning project for Wiki Process.

The wiki process can be seen as taking place on many levels. There is a technological level, a social level, a psychological level, and probably a variety of others.

Each person editing the wiki is probably sitting at a computer or some other internet enabled device and they are either by their-self or with someone else.

People are encouraged to be bold. What percentage of people do you think know that for the most part people are encouraged to be bold on the Wikimedia project? What percentage of people who know of Wikipedia edit it? And what percentage of people do you think who know about Wikipedia know about Wikiversity? But that is being tangential. This is about the wiki process.

All wikis start off as a sort of shell. It is a framework for people to build upon... (see Wikiology)

Wikiversity:Candidates for Custodianship/Darklama (full custodian)

I'd like to nominate Darklama for full custodianship. He has, as expected, been working on our .js and .cs files, the MediaWiki namespace, and has created, imported and/or adapted various useful templates for our use. As I had said in his original nomination, Darklama is probably our most technically proficient "regular contributor," has a long history of being an Administrator in good standing on our sister project en.Wikibooks, and is happy to help us with our most challenging technical issues. If you have a technical question about the bells (or even the whistles) here at Wikiversity, he'll be your best bet for either getting something adjusted or at least letting you know definitively if something needs to be sent to the devs instead.

Darklama is one of those contributors who both enjoys and is very good at helping others make their contributions work, and we are lucky to have him here helping us. -- SB_Johnny | talk 14:19, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

Questions and Requests

 * When I press "C" above to get a list of contributions, why is it empty? When I go to your user page and try to get contributions there, I see rather more. --McCormack 06:15, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
 * OK, I see that it's a namespace issue, but all the same, you have contributed to the MediaWiki namespace recently as well, so I still don't see why it is empty, and why is it set to that particular namespace anyway? --McCormack 06:17, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Not sure why its set to list only contributions to MediaWiki, but its not including enough in the link to show the contributions right away, you have to click the search button. Perhaps that was attentional. If not I could fix it. -- dark [[Image:Yin yang.svg|12px]] lama 14:26, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Erkan's contributions also appear to be zero, so it might be a good idea to fix it. I think he had about 1500 edits during the last 4 weeks. If he clicks the C he'll get a surprise. --McCormack 14:29, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
 * ✅ I look like I've contributed more here then I actually have due to lots of imports from Wikibooks. -- dark [[Image:Yin yang.svg|12px]] lama 14:48, 27 September 2007 (UTC)

Comments

 * I support Darklama for full custodianship. I'd like to personally thank Darklama for all the technical help provided to Wikiversity and particularly give thanks for help with cleaning up remaining Wikiversity-related pages at Wikibooks (more help still needed) and updating the templates and drop-down menu for file uploading. --JWS 14:30, 23 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Support also from my side: always there when you need him. From his technical skills I saw the implementation of the untagged Images: this monobook was his guinea pig :-) And to not only reduce him to skills, he is also available for some jokes (especially about c..n..s. :-)) Definitely a win for Wikiversity. Erkan Yilmaz ( my talk page, wiki blog ) 14:44, 23 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Support. --McCormack 06:14, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
 * --Remi 01:09, 28 September 2007 (UTC)

Discussion results are clear, User:Darklama now has full custodianship status. Congratulations, enjoy the mop. sebmol ? 19:34, 3 October 2007 (UTC)

Topic talk:Animal physiology

what is the function of an animal cheek cell and how does it adapt to carry it out?
 * Hi, I have copied your question also to the Wikiversity:Help desk. Erkan Yilmaz ( my talk page, wiki blog ) 15:25, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

From the Wikiversity help desk, Sept 07:
 * Since it is common for biology students to work with cheek cells from inside the mouth, this question is probably about the epithelial cells from the inner (inside the mouth) surface of the cheek. Like other epithelial layers at the interface of the body and the outside world, cheek epithelial cells form a physical barrier that limits the movement of microbes into the body (not into the mouth; think "into the blood and internal tissues"). A major strategy for this is to make the cytoskeletal protein keratin. Keratin forms long filaments inside epithelial cells. Epithelial cells link keratin-containing cytoskeletal filaments into desmosomes at the cell surface. The network of keratin filaments, desmosomes, and other similar proteins allow the epithelial sheet of cells to hold together and function as a solid physical barrier. Another "adaptation" is for rapid cell division. It is very easy to damage the epithelial layer inside the mouth. New epithelial cells of the inside of the mouth can be produced rapidly, so if a wound is created, the hole in the epithelium can be quickly filled in with new cells. --JWS 17:13, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

Wikiversity:Screen saver

The idea is quite simple: people use their PC to come to Wikiversity. Why don't we give them the possibility to make more with their pc when they are not active there ? With this screen saver they can also make advertisement for us. Imagine ... the screen saver running in schools, universities, or anywhere else. This increases awareness.

prototype
The following is just a prototype to show you what it is about:

it has background pictures and the RSS feed to the recent changes in the middle, which you can scroll down or up and on the right it shows the according xml/html changes.

here is the
 * prototype 0.04en (please read the _info_en.txt; so far it is only available for Windows)
 * video preview (avi file - 1152x864 - compressed with xvid mpeg-4) and

 * release info
 * here are the "old" versions

used tool: Microsoft Visual Basic 2005 Express Edition Starter Kit: Screen Saver

improve it !
As said this is just a prototype to illustrate the idea. Please continue the spark, let's make some big fire :-)

Other completely different screen savers are possible, e.g. ...
 * other/several background images
 * dynamic objects
 * sound
 * without RSS feed - when being offline
 * other operating systems ?

Do you have comments, ideas, problems ?

Try this!

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere.

The Cigarette Smoking Man (abbreviated to CSM, also known as Cancer Man or C.G.B. Spender), was a character played by William B. Davis on the 1993-2002 television series The X-Files.

The Cigarette Smoking Man oversaw Scully's initial briefing on her assignment to the X-Files to debunk the work of FBI Special Agent Fox Mulder, as well as her debriefing. The Cigarette Smoking Man also stole the evidence obtained by Mulder and Scully during the show's Pilot episode, and moved it to a secret, underground storage room at the Pentagon. Although uttering only four audible words in the entire 1st season of the show, CSM eventually developed into the series' primary antagonist. The character is most commonly referred to by this description because he is almost always seen chain-smoking Morley cigarettes, and also because like other villains on the show, he has no known real name.

CSM's silent presence in Skinner's office early on was always a warning that the shadowy government attempting to discredit Mulder is again keeping an eye on the nonconformist agent. Contents [hide]

[edit] Background

On the surface, it may seem that CSM merely tries to hide information from Mulder and Scully, but there is much more to him. He is involved in the Syndicate, a shadow organization which includes members of the United States government that exists to hide from the public the fact that aliens are planning to colonize Earth. CSM often ruthlessly protects the secrets of the conspiracy, and served as the main antagonist to Mulder, who had an equally consuming devotion to reveal the truth. Although his actions can be described as monstrous for the most part, his stated justification is a desire to prevent the alien colonization for as long as possible, and he is at times shown working towards that goal, particularly in connection with developing a vaccine to protect people from the "black oil", a parasitic agent which the alien Colonists use to propagate themselves.

CSM had a strained relationship with the rest of the Syndicate throughout the show, and there is evidence to suggest that he was never actually a full member of the Group. It is likely that he was employed by the Syndicate to act as both a liaison to the American government in such instances as were necessary, and as leader of the Men in Black, due to his formidable expertise as an assassin. If he was a full member, he was their most visible one, since the other members only rarely appeared in public.

Most of the other members, excepting perhaps Conrad Strughold, didn't seem predisposed to trust CSM, especially the Well-Manicured Man, who more than once expressed contempt for what he perceived as the CSM's degree of barbarity and incompetence. He was able to last both inside the Syndicate and outside it for as long as he did primarily due to a) the fact that he always ensured that he had too much valuable information to be expendable, b) his experience as an assassin, (in "Musings of a Cigarette Smoking Man", it is shown that he assassinated Kennedy from a storm drain opening) and c) his connections with elements of the extraterrestrial presence and others. Eventually, however, this internal struggle comes to a head later on in the show, when power struggles and what were perceived as frequent failures resulted in the Elder ordering that CSM was to be assassinated (an attempt which failed.) CSM is also different from the other members in that most of the other members seemed to have some sort of functioning family relationships, whereas CSM usually did not. Other Elders were also often shown living on large estates and enjoying high class entertainment, whereas CSM was often shown living in a sparsely furnished, dimly-lit, small apartment, and drinking beer while watching old black and white war movies.

[edit] History

During the first season, CSM was mostly seen in the offices of FBI Section Chief Blevins or Assistant Director Skinner; if not there, he was shown in an underground vault in the Pentagon, secreting evidence in a vast storehouse of classified materials. He had few lines during the season. Coupled with his tendency to lurk in the shadows, he was seen as embodying the "dark hand" of the conspiracy.

In season two, he has his Man in Black underling, Alex Krycek, spy on Mulder, and authorizes Scully's abduction. With help from Skinner, who had recently stood up to CSM for the first time, Mulder tracks him down to his apartment (presumably in the DC area). There, Mulder confronts CSM, whose first real dialogue has become one of the most famous moments in X-Files history. This scene does much to establish the nature of their relationship. In the Season Two finale "Anasazi", CSM pays his old colleague William Mulder a visit, revealing their relationship for the first time. Not long after, CSM orders Krycek to execute William, presumably because he felt the disillusioned William had grown to be too great a liability to the security of "The Project".

Season Three put the Syndicate onscreen for the first time. Almost immediately, it becomes apparent that the individual members do not exactly trust one another. It is shown that CSM is not the all-powerful leader of the Syndicate; in fact, many other members look down on him. In the finale, "Talitha Cumi", a rebel alien named Jeremiah Smith, is taken prisoner by CSM. Pending execution, the two have a dialogue that echoes The Legend of the Grand Inquisitor. During their conversations, Smith repeatedly unnerves CSM by morphing into people CSM in the past ordered the deaths of. CSM learns that he is dying of lung cancer and quickly gives Smith his freedom in exchange for a cure (some aliens have remarkable healing abilities). Also during this episode, the question of whether CSM is actually Mulder and/or Samantha's biological father is first presented when he is shown to have had a past relationship with Mulder's mother.

In Season Four, the episode, "Musings of a Cigarette Smoking Man", presents a possible history to CSM. The Lone Gunmen, during some of their own investigations, discover some information concerning CSM, which they recount to Mulder and Scully. According to the episode, CSM was born on or around August 20, 1940, in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. He grew up an orphan (his father was executed for treason) and in 1962 was stationed, along with Bill Mulder, at the Center for Special Warfare in Fort Bragg, North Carolina. He was recruited for the conspiracy at this time and quickly rose through the ranks. In the episode, he is portrayed as a deadly assassin with a long history in black operations and American intelligence. He was involved in training Cuban nationals in the Bay of Pigs, aided Dominican locals in the assassination of Rafael Trujillo, assassinated both John F. Kennedy (firing 2 shots from a storm drain) and Martin Luther King, fixed the Super Bowl to ensure that the Buffalo Bills would never win a championship, drugged the Soviet Union's goalie in the Miracle on Ice, and thinks nothing of insulting J. Edgar Hoover to his face or putting Saddam Hussein on hold. He is also shown as a failed writer whose stories are rejected for being too unrealistic. After making a sale, he plans to retire from the conspiracy, but decides otherwise after discovering that his work has been published in a pornographic magazine with a different ending.

During this episode, the Cigarette Smoking Man meets with Lee Harvey Oswald to discuss his part in the assassination of J.F.K.. During this conversation, Lee refers to the Cigarette Smoking Man as Mr. Hunt. This may be linking the character of Cigarette Smoking Man to a real life Cigarette Smoking Man, E. Howard Hunt, who was heavily involved in the Watergate scandal.

During the first mytharc fifth season episodes, the Elder has decided that CSM is no longer useful, and orders MIB operative Quiet Willy to eliminate him. While in his apartment, CSM was ruminating over a photograph of Mulder and Samantha when an assassin firing through the window shot him in the chest. During this episode he also helps Mulder find a cure for Scully's cancer (which she learned about in season 4), and presents him with a Samantha clone, whom he purports is Mulder's sister. Despite this, Mulder refuses to work for him. CSM later appears hiding in a remote area of Quebec. Missing his talents, the Syndicate welcomes him back at the end of the season.

In the sixth season's full disclosure two-parter ("Two Fathers"/"One Son"), his name is revealed to be C. G. B. Spender. It is revealed that he was formerly married to Cassandra Spender, with whom he had a son, Jeffrey. Diana Fowley is revealed to be a subordinate of his; together, they escape the annihilation of the Syndicate. In the episode, his confidence in Jeffrey, whom CSM hoped would become greater than Mulder, wanes, and he confronts his son and apparently kills him. The episodes also presented further evidence suggesting CSM is Mulder's father. Eventually, Fowley also splits from CSM, siding with Mulder and Scully.

With the Syndicate dismantled, CSM still managed to keep the conspiracy going, and was presumably now free to operate as he wished. His cancer resurfaced about a year later and he became wheelchair-bound. He also acquired a trachea hole, though this in no way lessened his chain-smoking. At the end of the 7th season, after carrying out an operation at the behest of CSM, Krycek turns on him and throws him down a flight of stairs.

For about two years, CSM was presumed dead. During this time, Mulder was abducted, found and then disappeared on his own, Scully eventually left the X-Files division and had a child, William, and a new conspiracy, the New Syndicate, surfaced. In the episode "William", it is learned that CSM's attempted murder of Jeffrey Spender failed. Jeffrey was then subjected to experiments at the orders of CSM, which left Jeffrey horribly scarred. Also, it is revealed in this episode that he is Fox's biological father. In the two part Series Finale, Mulder and Scully travel through remote New Mexico, and reach a pueblo where a "wise man" reputedly lives. It is in fact CSM. He is shown to be in the same condition as when he disappeared, but has degenerated further and is now quite unkempt. He has a shock of long white hair, and is living a primitive life in hiding from the New Syndicate. He reveals to Mulder and Scully all he has left to tell (including the fact that the aliens are scheduled to invade in 2012) and shortly after is finally killed, shot by a black helicopter rocket.

His known subordinates have included Marita Covarrubias, Scott Blevins, Alex Krycek, X, Crew Cut Man, The Gray Haired Man, Luis Cardinal, and Black Haired Man.
