Talk:Elara (moon)

Comments
Two conflicting pronunciations in English: ee'-lur-a would be expected from stress rules, and is the pronunciation used by the Random House and American Heritage dictionaries and the Columbia Encyclopedia. However, The Dictionary of Classical Mythology (JE Zimmerman, Harper & Row, 1964), the Pronouncing Dictionary of Proper Names (Bollard, ed.), and the Encyclopedia Mythica (online) have the seemingly irregular pronunciation ee-lair'-a. Zimmerman gives literary English pronunciations and doesn't try to recapture the Greek accent, so I'm taking both pronunciations to be valid. --kwami 02:08, 8 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * Actually, there is a slight chance that the Latin is Elāra, in which case the ee-lair'-a pronunciation would be regular. Since the Greek alphabet doesn't distinguish long from short a the way it does with mid vowels, this is a possibility. However, it's unlikely, as Attic ā regularly shifted to ō. kwami

Wow, this name isn't even in the full 9th edition of Liddell & Scott's Greek-English Lexicon. Given the unlikelihood of a long a in the Greek, your best bet might be ee'-lur-a. kwami 00:04, 2005 May 28 (UTC)

Posted this question on Talk:Ancient Greek phonology, and here's a summary of the response. 'Elara' is attested in,

 * Apollonios Rhodios, Ἀργοναυτικά 759ff:
 * Ἐν καὶ Ἀπόλλων Φοῖβος ὀιστεύων ἐτέτυκτο,
 * βούπαις, οὔ πω πολλός, ἑὴν ἐρύοντα καλύπτρης
 * μητέρα θαρσαλέως Τιτυὸν μέγαν, ὅν ῥ' ἔτεκέν γε
 * δῖ' Ἐλάρη, θρέψεν δὲ καὶ ἂψ ἐλοχεύσατο Γαῖα.
 * ([])

 * As this is a hexameter, the a would seem to be short, while accented. The δῖ Ἐ- shouldn't get contracted here, given that the iota is long; and contracting δῖ Ἐ- would be necessary for the a to be long.

 * The Greek form Ἐλάρη is literally Elarē. As would be expected in an epic poem, this is the Ionic (or Epic) form, corresponding to the Attic Ἐλάρα (Elara).

But stressed antipenults are normally short vowels in English, so the expected pronunciation would be el'-ur-a in English, which disagrees with all the dictionaries. kwami 19:07, 3 December 2005 (UTC)

 * I can confirm that the analysis of Apollonius Rhodius is the only possible: δῖ’ Ἐλάρη (dî' Elárē) cannot be scanned as three long syllables, - - -, since it is not possible to have a synizesis that spans an elided vowel: δῖ(ε) Ἐλάρη (dî(e) Elárē). Using the TLG-CD-rom, I have found only two other examples of this name in a metric context, but in both cases the metre is uncertain (Simonides, fr. 560 P. Ἐλάρας γενεά and Pindar, fr. 294 S.-M.Ἀλέρας υἱόν). Enkyklios 16:08, 7 December 2005 (CET)

Picture of the moon
Before I add a picture that might have already been discussed somewhere, I thought I'd ask, is this a good representation of Elara? (I would think it's safe to trust the ESA, but since the picture isn't already up, I'm suspicious.) Ben Hocking (talk 19:11, 23 July 2007 (UTC)
 * The only images of Elara are those from Earth-based telescopes where it appears like a star, or those from New Horizons where at most it might be a couple pixels across. I'm not sure where that picture came from, but I would have to say it's not an accurate representation of Elara. --Patteroast 14:20, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Well, it is credited to NASA. Perhaps Galileo snapped a picture of it while it was touring Jupiter? (OTOH, I tried doing a Google image search on site:nasa.gov without any good hits.) Ben Hocking (talk 14:25, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Galileo never imaged Elara, as it's one of Jupiter's small irregular outer moons. Also, because of its small size, it is most likely not round. I've seen images like that listed as images of the outer Jovian moons before on some random websites, but I have no clue why or how that started. The image in question appears to be Io. --Patteroast 00:55, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
 * I knew this seemed familiar! This image has been put on this page before. --Patteroast 01:00, 25 July 2007 (UTC)

Sprengel explosive

Sprengel explosives are a generic class of materials invented by Hermann Sprengel in the 1870s. They consist of stoichiometric mixtures of strong oxidisers and reactive fuels, mixed just prior to use in order to enhance safety. Either the oxidiser or the fuel, or both, should be a liquid to facilitate mixing, and intimate contact between the materials for a fast reaction rate.

Sprengel suggested nitric acid, nitrates and chlorates as oxidisers, and nitroaromatics (e.g. nitrobenzene) as fuels. Other Sprengel explosives used at various times include charcoal with liquid oxygen (an oxyliquit), "Rackarock", and ANFO ammonium nitrate (oxidiser) mixed with a fuel oil (fuel), normally diesel, kerosene, or nitromethane. Eventually ANFO supplanted all others because its oxidiser was the safest, and - due to its widespread use as a fertiliser in agriculture - also the cheapest.

"Rackarock" consisted of potassium chlorate and nitrobenzene. It was provided in the form of permeable cartridges of the chlorate, which were placed in wire baskets and dipped in the nitrobenzene for a few seconds before use. For underwater use, it could be provided in cans instead. It was famously used in the massive submarine demolition of Flood Rock, a navigational hazard in Long Island Sound in 1885. The charge of over a hundred tonnes of explosive (laid in tunnels 20 metres below sea level) destroyed approximately 600,000 tonnes of rock.

Holy Names Academy

Holy Names Academy is a Catholic private all-girls college-preparatory high school, founded by the Sisters of the Holy Names of Jesus and Mary in 1880 and located on the east slope of Seattle's Capitol Hill. It is the oldest continually operating school in Washington state. Located in the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Seattle, the school is governed by an independent Board of Trustees, and is under the trusteeship of the Sisters of the Holy Names; a number of religious sisters are on the board or the faculty/staff. The school has been named a Blue Ribbon School by the U.S. Department of Education four separate times, and has been multiple times ranked among "America's Most Challenging High Schools" in an annual survey by The Washington Post.

History
The school was officially founded on June 15, 1880, by the Sisters of the Holy Names of Jesus and Mary. Holy Names Academy was founded before Washington officially became a state in 1889. . Its first pupils were 21 day students, one boarding student, and one music student. Initially it was located in two rented houses at the corner of 2nd Avenue and Seneca Street in downtown Seattle. In 1885 the academy moved to its first purpose-built home, a multi-story structure in the Second Empire style crowned with a tall steeple. It was located on 7th Avenue near Jackson Street in what is now in the Chinatown/International District. An advertisement in Polk's Seattle City Directory from 1895 stated: "Thorough instruction is given in all the English branches, art, music, elocution and modern languages. Plain sewing and every variety of fancy needlework taught without extra charge, stenography and typewriting are among the elective studies."

By 1904 planned regrading works on Jackson Street meant another move for the school to what would be their present home in the Capitol Hill neighborhood. Construction began in 1906 and was completed in 1908. The building on 7th Avenue was demolished that same year. The architect of the new domed building, designed in the Baroque Revival style, was Albert Breitung. Its design has been preserved over the years with few exterior changes.

The adjacent Jeanne Marie McAteer Lee Gymnasium was built in 1990 on what was previously tennis courts. In 2017, the school opened the Mary Herche Pavilion, a 3-story structure that connects the original building and the gym, and features a student commons area, a fitness center for all students and faculty, an expanded cafeteria with outdoor seating, and other improvements.

By 2018, the Academy recognized challenges to the school’s long-term sustainability, notably the acute lack of parking in a rapidly changing Capitol Hill neighborhood and insufficient facilities for a thriving athletics program. In response, the school undertook one of the largest capital initiatives in its history—the Foundation for the Future campaign—to support the construction of an underground parking garage and a new athletic complex atop it. Starting in 2019, the previous gym was removed, the site was excavated for a five-level, 243-vehicle garage, and a new Jeanne Marie McAteer Lee Athletic Complex rose at the Roy Street end of the HNA campus. The project was completed in fall 2020.

Holy Names Academy had originally incorporated a boarding school and grade school. A normal school was added in 1908. The normal school closed in 1930, the grade school in 1963, and the boarding school in 1967.

Athletics
Holy Names Academy has teams for Basketball, Bowling, Cheer, Crew, Cross Country, Flag Football, Golf, Gymnastics, Lacrosse, Slowpitch Softball, Soccer, Softball, Swim/Dive, Tennis, Track/Field, Ultimate Frisbee, and Volleyball. It has won of a total of 18 team state titles in the following sports:

 * Basketball
 * Cross Country
 * Golf
 * Gymnastics
 * Soccer
 * Swim/Dive
 * Tennis
 * Track

Nafisa Joseph

Nafisa Joseph (28 March 1978 – 29 July 2004) was an Indian model, video jockey and beauty pageant titleholder. She was the winner of Femina Miss India Universe 1997 and was a finalist in the Miss Universe 1997 pageant in Miami Beach.

Early life
Nafisa Joseph was born on 28 March 1978 in Delhi, and was brought up in Bangalore, Karnataka. She was the younger of two daughters born to father Nirmal Joseph, a Malayali and mother Usha Joseph, a Bengali, who was a descendant of Rabindranath Tagore. Nafisa studied at Bishop Cotton Girls' School and St. Joseph's College, both at Bangalore.

Career
Joseph started modelling at age 12 when her neighbour got her an opportunity to model for a Wearhouse ad. She was groomed as a model by Prasad Bidapa. Joseph was the youngest participant at the Miss India pageant in 1997, which she won. Joseph participated in the Miss Universe Pageant at Miami Beach, Florida on 16 May 1997, and was amongst the 10 semifinalists in the pageant.

In 1999, she was a judge for the Channel named MTV India VJ Hunt and was also a VJ for MTV. A week later she was called for a screen test to host a show on MTV. She ran the MTV House Full show for close to five years. She also acted in a television series C.A.T.S., an Indian version of Charlie's Angels for Sony Entertainment Television. In 2004, she hosted a show Style on Star World. She also launched a television programming unit 2's Company with the help of her fiancé, Gautam Khanduja. She edited a magazine called Gurlz. She also had a brief cameo in the Subhash Ghai film Taal.

In addition to modeling and hosting duties, Joseph was a lover of animals and campaigned for Welfare of Stray Dogs (WSD), People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) and People for Animals (PFA), organizations for animal protection, and wrote a weekly column called Nafisa for Animals in the Bangalore edition of the Times of India.

Death
Joseph hanged herself in her flat in Versova on 29 July 2004. She was to marry businessman Gautam Khanduja in a few weeks' time. According to her parents, Joseph took the step because her marriage was called off. This was due to Joseph having discovered that Khanduja was still married, although having told her he had been divorced for two years. When confronted, Khanduja refused to answer questions about his marital life or produce divorce papers that he had previously claimed he had filed. Instead, press reports at the time mention that he then threatened her with blackmail, probably after she threatened to confront his wife.

Joseph's parents filed a police report accusing her fiancé for her death, claiming that Khanduja had been desperate to get out of the wedding for some time, and sought his custodial interrogation. In November 2005, the trial against Khanduja was stayed by the Bombay High Court until January 2006. Khanduja claimed that there was no evidence to prove that breaking off the engagement had led to Joseph's suicide.

List of parrots

Parrots, also known as psittacines, are the 402 species of birds that make up the order Psittaciformes, found in most tropical and subtropical regions, of which 387 are extant. The order is subdivided into three superfamilies: the Psittacoidea ("true" parrots), the Cacatuoidea (cockatoos), and the Strigopoidea (New Zealand parrots). Parrots have a generally pantropical distribution with several species inhabiting temperate regions in the Southern Hemisphere as well. The greatest diversity of parrots is in South America and Australasia.

The Cacatuoidea are quite distinct, having a movable head crest, a different arrangement of the carotid arteries, a gall bladder, differences in the skull bones, and lack the Dyck texture feathers that—in the Psittacoidea—scatter light to produce the vibrant colours of so many parrots. Lorikeets were previously regarded as a family, Loriidae,  but are now considered a tribe (Loriini) within the subfamily Loriinae, family Psittaculidae. Some species, such as the Puerto Rican amazon (Amazona vittata) have had a population bottleneck (in this case reduced to 13 individuals in 1975) and subsequently have low genetic variability and low reproductive success, leading to complications with conservation.

No consensus existed regarding the taxonomy of Psittaciformes until recently. The placement of the Strigopoidea species has been variable in the past. They were once considered part of the Psittacoidea, but recent 21st-century studies place this group of New Zealand species as their own superfamily next to the Cacatuoidea and remaining members of the Psittacoidea. Many studies have confirmed the unique placement of this group at the base of the parrot tree. Most authors now recognize this group as a separate taxon  containing two families: Nestoridae and Strigopidae. Conversely, the relationships among various cockatoo genera are largely resolved.

Conventions
Conservation status codes listed follow the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List of Threatened Species. Range maps are provided wherever possible; if a range map is not available, a description of the bird's range is provided. Ranges are based on the IUCN red list for that species unless otherwise noted. All extinct species listed went extinct after 1500 CE (recently extinct ), and are indicated by a dagger symbol "†".

Classification
The order Psittaciformes consists of 387 extant species belonging to 87 genera. The following classification is based on the most recent proposals as of 2012.

Superfamily Psittacoidea: true parrots Superfamily Cacatuoidea: cockatoos Superfamily Strigopoidea: New Zealand parrots
 * Family Psittacidae
 * Subfamily Psittacinae: two African genera, Psittacus and Poicephalus
 * Subfamily Arinae
 * Tribe Arini: eighteen genera
 * Tribe Androglossini: seven genera

 * Subfamily Psittrichasinae: one species, Pesquet's parrot
 * Subfamily Coracopsinae: one genus with several species

 * Tribe Pezoporini: ground parrots and allies
 * Tribe Platycercini: broad-tailed parrots
 * Subfamily Psittacellinae: one genus (Psittacella) with several species
 * Subfamily Loriinae
 * Tribe Loriini: lories and lorikeets
 * Tribe Melopsittacini: one genus with one species, the budgerigar
 * Tribe Cyclopsittini: fig parrots

 * Subfamily Cacatuinae
 * Tribe Microglossini: one genus with one species, the black palm cockatoo
 * Tribe Cacatuini: four genera of white, pink, and grey species
 * Family Nestoridae: two genera with two living (kea and New Zealand kaka) and several extinct species of the New Zealand region
 * Family Strigopidae: the flightless, critically endangered kākāpō of New Zealand

Names of the Levant

Over recorded history, there have been many names of the Levant, a large area in the Near East, or its constituent parts. These names have applied to a part or the whole of the Levant. On occasion, two or more of these names have been used at the same time by different cultures or sects. As a natural result, some of the names of the Levant are highly politically charged. Perhaps the least politicized name is Levant itself, which simply means "where the sun rises" or "where the land rises out of the sea", a meaning attributed to the region's easterly location on the shore of the Mediterranean Sea.

Retjenu
Ancient Egyptian texts (c. 14th century BC) called the entire coastal area along the Mediterranean Sea between modern Egypt and Turkey rṯnw (conventionally Reṯenu). In the Amarna letters, written in Akkadian cuneiform, Reṯenu is subdivided into five regions:

 * kꜣnꜥnꜥ (Kanana) or Canaan proper (Idumea, Judea, Samaria);
 * pꜣ-kꜣnꜥnꜥ (pa-Kanana), city of Gaza; name used in reference to being the administrative centre of Canaan.
 * Ḏahy (ḏꜣhy;Ṯahi, Ḏahi), roughly Galilee and coastal plain to Ashkelon dominated by Hazor;
 * Rmnn, coast of Lebanon;
 * Amurru, (the Amurru kingdom of the Amorites);
 * Kharu (ḥꜣrw), the chief city of which was Ugarit.

Canaan

 * Akkadian: 𒆳𒆠𒈾𒄴𒈾 (Kinaḫnu)
 * کَنْعَان
 * Phoenician: 𐤊𐤍𐤏𐤍 (Knʿn)
 * Χαναάν or Χνᾶ (Khanaán or Khna)
 * Hebrew
 * Israeli כנען
 * Tiberian כְּנַעַן

 * Canaan
 * (Kænaan)
 * (Knʿn)
 * Kenan

Prior to (and for some time after) the formation of the Israelite/Hebrew identity and polities in the region, the land was referred to natively as Canaan (first attested in Assyrian Akkadian as Kinaḫnu). Though it was once thought that the Hebrews were foreign settlers in Canaan, the modern consensus of most scholars is that Hebrew identity developed in situ as a direct indigenous evolution of earlier Canaanite tribes; the continuity from Bronze Age Canaanite civilization to Iron Age Israelite/Judean civilization is indeed so seamless that many scholars stress that any dichotomy between the two is essentially arbitrary—with culture, language, etc., being indistinguishable during the transition from Bronze Age to Iron Age. The Phoenicians—also descended from the Bronze Age Canaanites, and close relatives and neighbors of the Israelites—likewise continued to speak a Canaanite language and practice Canaanite religion at their Mediterranean ports, and referred to themselves natively as "Canaanites", and their land as "Canaan".

Phoenicia

 * فِيْنِيْقِيَّة
 * Φοινίκη (Phoiníkē)
 * Hebrew
 * Israeli פיניקיה (Feniqiyah or Finiqiyah)

 * Phœnicia
 * Fenike

In ancient times, the Greeks called the whole of Canaan Phoiníkē, literally "[land] of the purple[-producing shell]". Today, general consensus associates the Phoenician homeland proper with modern-day Lebanon, centered at Phoenician cities such as Ugarit, Tyre, Sidon, and Byblos. Also, there is a modern town in Turkey called Finike which is thought to have derived by the Lycians who traded with Phoenicians in ancient times.

Israel and Judea
Israel:
 * Egyptian: ysrỉꜣr
 * إِِِسْرَائِيْل
 * Canaanite: 𐤉𐤔𐤓𐤀𐤋 (yšrʾl)
 * Ugaritic: 𐎊𐎌𐎗𐎛𐎍 (yšrỉl)
 * Ισραήλ (Israḗl)
 * Hebrew
 * Israeli ישראל (Yisrael)
 * Tiberian יִשְׂרָאֵל
 * Biblical Hebrew: 𐤉𐤔𐤓𐤀𐤋

 * Israël
 * İsrail
 * Middle Persian: Adēr / Adēl
 * (Esrajil)

Judea:
 * یَهُوْدَا
 * Akkadian: 𒅀𒌑𒁕𒀀𒀀 (ia-u2-da-a-a)
 * Ἰουδαία (Ioudaía)
 * Hebrew
 * Israeli יהודה (Yehuda)
 * Tiberian Hebrew: Yəhūḏā

 * (Jæhudije / Jæhudija)
 * Yahudi
 * IVDÆA

The kingdoms of Israel and Judah were Iron Age Semitic nations spanning from Edom to Assyria. Today, the modern State of Israel controls much of the former territory of the ancient Israelite/Judean kingdoms. According to the Deuteronomic history in the Bible, the polities of Israel and Judah originally split off from an earlier, united Kingdom of Israel, ruled by illustrious kings such as David and Solomon; though modern archaeology, biblical scholarship, and historians are generally somewhat skeptical of the historicity of the alleged united monarchy of Israel, suggesting instead that the two kingdoms developed separately, with the southern kingdom of Judah probably dependent on the northern kingdom of Israel as a satellite state at first.

The term Judaea is used by historians to refer to the Roman province that extended over parts of the former regions of the Hasmonean and Herodian kingdoms. It was named after Herod Archelaus's ethnarchy of Judea of which it was an expansion, the name being derived from the earlier provincial designations Yehud Medinata (Achaemenid) and Yehud (Neo-Babylonian): all ultimately referring to the former Hebrew kingdom of Judah.

Assyria and Syria
During Persian rule of the Near East, the Greeks and Romans came to call the region "Syria", believed to have been named after Assyria and the Aramaic language they spread over the entire region. However, Herodotus used the combined name "Syria Palaistinē". "Greater Syria" refers to a larger area that is supported by some nationalists.

During the Syrian Wars between the Seleucid dynasty and the Ptolemaic dynasty (274-168 BC), the region was known as Coele-Syria traditionally given the meaning 'hollow' Syria. The later Hellenistic term Koile Syria that appears first in Arrian's Anabasis Alexandri (2.13.7) in AD 145 and has been much discussed, is usually interpreted as a transcription of Aramaic kul, "all, the entire", identifying all of Syria.

Palestine
Palestine:
 * فِلِسْطِيْن
 * Παλαιστίνη (Palaistinē) - from פְּלִשְׁתִּים ; or perhaps Greek παλαιστής (palaistēs, "wrestler"), in reference to Israel
 * Hebrew
 * Israeli פלשתינה (Palestina) – from Latin, English etc., or Israeli פלסטין (Falastin) – from Arabic.

 * (Felestin)
 * Palæstina - same word as Philistia
 * Filistin

An early version of the name Palestine was first recorded by the ancient Egyptians as Peleset. Herodotus later called the whole area Syria Palaistinē in his Histories (c. 450 BC), and included the entire territory of ancient Israel and Judea (which he noted for the practice of circumcision), not specifically the coastal Philistine territory (whose people notably did not practice circumcision). The Romans applied the term Syria Palaestina to the southern part of the region—beginning in AD 135, following the Bar Kokhba revolt—to complete the disassociation with the former identity of Judaea. The name continued to be used for the province throughout later Byzantine and Islamic rule.

†As a side note, Standard Hebrew has two names for Palestine, both of which are different from the Hebrew name for ancient Philistia. The first name Palestina was used by Hebrew speakers in the British Mandate of Palestine; it is spelled like the name for Philistia but with three more letters added to the end and a Latin pronunciation given. The second name Falastin is a direct loan from the Arabic form, and is used today specifically to refer to the modern Palestinians and to political aspirations for a Palestinian state.

Philistia
Philistia:
 * Canaanite: 𐤐𐤋𐤔𐤕 (p.l.ʃ.t)
 * Hebrew
 * Israeli פלשת (Pleshet)
 * Tiberian פְּלֶשֶׁת

 * Palæstina - from Greek

Eber-Nari and Transeuphratia
Eber-Nari was the name of a satrapy of the Achaemenid Empire which roughly corresponded with the southern Levant. It means "Beyond the River" or "Across the River" in both Akkadian and Aramaic (that is, the western side of the Euphrates from a Mesopotamian and Persian viewpoint). It is also sometimes referred to as Transeuphratia (French Transeuphratène) by modern scholars.

Shaam
The Arabic name for the region of Levant is Shaam (أَلشَّام) comes from the Arabic root meaning "left" or "north". After the Islamic conquest of the region, Shaam became the name of the Levant (Byzantine Syria).

In ancient times, Baalshamin or Ba'al Šamem (ܒܥܠ ܫܡܝܢ), was a Semitic sky-god in Canaan/Phoenicia and ancient Palmyra. However, the syllable "sham" in Baalshamin has nothing to do with the name shaam but is just by chance the middle syllable of the word for "sky", comparable to Hebrew שָׁמַיִם (shamayim).

Levant
Medieval Italians called the region Levante after its easterly location where the sun "rises"; this term was adopted from Italian and French into many other languages.

Outremer
Frankish Crusaders called the Levant Outremer in French, which means "overseas." In France, this general term was colloquially applied more specifically to the Levant because of heavy Frankish involvement in the Crusades and the foundation of the Latin Kingdom of Jerusalem and other Latin settlements scattered throughout the area.

Eastern Mediterranean
Eastern Mediterranean is a term that denotes the lands or states geographically in the eastern, to the east of, or around the east of the Mediterranean Sea, or with cultural affinities to this region. The Eastern Mediterranean includes Cyprus, Syria, Lebanon, Palestine, Israel, and Jordan. The term Mediterranean derives from the Latin word mediterraneus, meaning "in the middle of earth" or "between lands" (medius, "middle, between" + terra, "land, earth"). This is on account of the sea's intermediary position between the continents of Africa and Europe.

Holy Land
In different languages:
 * اَلْأَرْض الْمُقَدَّسَة (Al-Arḍ al-Muqaddasah in the Islamic holy book, the Quran)
 * Άγιοι Τόποι (Hagioi Topoi, modern ), literally: "Holy Places")
 * ארץ הקדש (Erets ha-Kodesh)
 * Terra Sancta
 * Kutsal Topraklar

The Holy Land is a term used in Abrahamic tradition to refer to sacred sites of the Levant — such as Shiloh, Jerusalem, Bethlehem and Nazareth — but is also often used to refer to the Levant (and historical Canaan) as a whole.

Bishop Blanchet High School

Bishop Blanchet High School is a private coeducational Catholic high school located north of Green Lake in Seattle, United States. The school was founded in 1954 by the Archdiocese of Seattle, and named for the first bishop of the diocese, A.M.A. Blanchet (1797–1887). Originally named Blanchet High School, in 1999 the title Bishop was added to make the school easily identified as Catholic.

Bishop Blanchet has an enrollment of approximately 850 students, 60% of whom are Catholic. The school employs 73 teachers, 69 of them full-time. Most students come from Archdiocesan elementary and middle schools.

Academics
Bishop Blanchet High School offers Honors and Advanced Placement courses, and around 50% of its student body participates in at least some of them. In order to graduate, a student must obtain 52 credits. The school does not provide a Running Start program for students to take courses at nearby colleges while completing high school. According to the Blanchet Admissions Office, approximately 99% of Bishop Blanchet graduates continue their education at higher institutions.

History
The school was founded in February 1954 and opened in 1955. The school underwent minor renovations in 2002 and 2013.

Extracurricular activities
Blanchet has a range of sports, clubs, and activities. Most students at Blanchet partake in some kind of extracurricular activity. Several religious retreat programs are offered for students, including a four-day Kairos retreat.

The Miter
Bishop Blanchet's student newspaper, The Miter, is published every month during the school year. Its articles are published on the newspaper's website.

Athletics
Blanchet has 36 teams in 17 interscholastic sports, and as of March 2016 had won 164 League Championships. Sports played include cross country, football, basketball, track, soccer, swimming, lacrosse, baseball, bowling, and ping pong. It has won state championships in the following sports:

 * Baseball (1): 1996
 * Boys Basketball (1): 1963
 * Girls Basketball (2): 1995, 1996
 * Boys Cross Country (9): 1983, 1984, 1986, 1991, 1992, 2001, 2002, 2004, 2021

 * Boys Soccer (2): 1974, 1980
 * Softball (1): 1980
 * Volleyball (4): 1991, 2004, 2006, 2009

Athletic scholarship scandal
In 2015, Bishop Blanchet High School self-reported that its athletics program had violated the recruiting policies of the Washington Interscholastic Activities Association (WIAA). A parent had been giving tuition assistance to a player on the girls' basketball team, and during investigation of what had happened, it was determined that the head coach of the football team had been administering a scholarship fund to provide tuition assistance for football players who would otherwise have been ineligible for financial aid.

The WIAA responded by expunging the records of the football and girls' basketball teams for several previous seasons and placing the school's athletic program on a two-year probation. The coach was dismissed from his head coaching position but was allowed to continue at the school as a physical education teacher, and the school began a training program to educate its staff about WIAA policies.

Arts
Bishop Blanchet High School provides a range of artistic courses for its students, including band, choir, drama, and visual arts. The Drama department boasts a "black box" theater within the school premises, which serves as the venue for a fall play, one acts, improv performances, classes, and rehearsals. Additionally, every spring, Blanchet presents a musical at the Moore Theatre. In 2008, the school's Drama Program was recognized by Stage Directions magazine as "The Top High School Theatre Program in the Northwest".

Esports
A team of students representing Bishop Blanchet High School won the NintendoVS Splatoon 3 High School Exhibition at Nintendo Live 2023, defeating another high school in the Archdiocese of Seattle, O'Dea High School. The Bishop Blanchet Esports Team regularly streams on Twitch at BBHSESports where League of Legends and Splatoon 3 are played on Tuesdays with Overwatch and Super Smash Bros Ultimate on Wednesdays. During the 2022-2023 school year the school's League of Legends team won both PlayVS season finals in the Mountain Region during both fall and spring seasons going undefeated in both resulting in a perfect 24-0.

I've created about  articles - not including simple splits, disambigs, redirects or transwikis. This list is much more reliable than that created by tools, because tools count all those things (even redirects, if they become articles or disambigs later), and also they can overcount or undercount articles which have since moved or changed subject.

Started from scratch
Most of these I created as stubs and added to sometime later. Nowadays I prefer to give articles a decent start with a few paragraphs, references, external links and perhaps a picture; only a few I created longer than this. In the early days of Wikipedia, stubs and even substubs (pages consisting of just a single sentence) were acceptable, but the entry barrier for new articles is much higher now. Articles now need to be of good quality from the very start, which is quite hard on Wikipedia newcomers, and is not a good thing for several reasons — see my userpage note on this and related issues.
 * 1) Herzog Zwei
 * 2) tenebrescence (now merged to the newer article photochromism)
 * 3) tugtupite
 * 4) Phantom mobile device vibration — see my essay on my userpage about how this was deleted three times before the fourth re-creation was kept (under the title phantom ringing). A good example of the entry barrier.
 * 5) ICO (video game) (moved to Ico)

Soupy Sales

Milton Supman (January 8, 1926 – October 22, 2009), known professionally as Soupy Sales, was an American comedian, actor, radio-television personality, and jazz aficionado. He was best known for his local and network children's television series, Lunch with Soupy Sales (later titled The Soupy Sales Show) (1953–1966), a series of comedy sketches frequently ending with Sales receiving a pie in the face, which became his trademark. From 1968 to 1975, he was a regular panelist on the syndicated revival of What's My Line? and appeared on several other TV game shows. During the 1980s, he hosted his own show on WNBC in New York City.

Early life
Milton Supman was born in Franklinton, North Carolina, to Irving Supman and Sadie Berman Supman. His father, a Jewish dry goods merchant, emigrated from Hungary in 1894. His was the only Jewish family in town; Sales joked that local Ku Klux Klan members bought the sheets used for their robes from his father's store.

Sales got his nickname from his family. His older brothers had been nicknamed "Ham Bone" and "Chicken Bone". Milton was dubbed "Soup Bone", which was later shortened to "Soupy". When he became a disc jockey, he began using the stage name Soupy Hines. After he became established, it was decided that "Hines" was too close to the Heinz soup company, so he chose Sales, in part after vaudeville comedian Chic Sale. He graduated from Huntington High School in Huntington, West Virginia, in 1944. He enlisted in the United States Navy and served on the USS Randall (APA-224) in the South Pacific during the latter part of World War II. He sometimes entertained his shipmates by telling jokes and playing crazy characters over the ship's public address system. One of the characters he created was "White Fang", a large dog that played outrageous practical jokes on the seamen. The sounds for "White Fang" came from a recording of The Hound of the Baskervilles.

Sales enrolled at Marshall University, known as Marshall College at that time, where he earned a master's degree in journalism. While there, he performed in nightclubs as a comedian, singer and dancer.

Career
After graduating from Marshall, Sales began working as a scriptwriter and disc jockey at radio station WHTN (now WVHU) in Huntington. He moved to Cincinnati, Ohio, in 1949, where he was a morning radio DJ and performed in nightclubs. He began his television career on WKRC-TV in Cincinnati with Soupy's Soda Shop, TV's first teen dance program, and Club Nothing!, a late-night comedy/variety program.

Lunch with Soupy Sales
Sales is best known for his daily children's television show, Lunch with Soupy Sales. It was originally called 12 O'Clock Comics, and later known as The Soupy Sales Show. Improvised and slapstick in nature, it was a rapid-fire stream of comedy sketches, gags and puns, almost all of which resulted in Sales receiving a pie in the face, which became his trademark. He developed pie-throwing into an art form: straight to the face, on top of the head, a pie to both ears from behind, moving into a stationary pie, and countless other variations. He claimed that he and his visitors had been hit by more than 20,000 pies during his career. He recounted a time when a young fan mistakenly threw a frozen pie at his neck and he "dropped like a pile of bricks".

Detroit
Lunch with Soupy Sales began in 1953 from the studios of WXYZ-TV, Channel 7, in the historic Maccabees Building in Detroit. Sales occasionally took the studio cameras to the lawn of the Detroit Public Library, across the street from the studios, and talked with local students walking to and from school. Beginning no later than July 4, 1955, a Saturday version of Sales' lunch show was broadcast nationally on the ABC television network. His lunchtime program on weekdays was moved to early morning opposite Today and Captain Kangaroo.

During the same period that Lunch with Soupy Sales aired in Detroit, Sales also hosted a nighttime show, Soupy's On, to compete with 11 O'Clock News programs. The guest star was always a musician, often a jazz performer, at a time when jazz was popular in Detroit and the city was home to 24 jazz clubs. Sales believed his show helped sustain jazz in Detroit, as artists regularly sold out their nightclub shows after appearing on it.

Coleman Hawkins, Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington, Billie Holiday, Charlie Parker and Stan Getz were among the musicians who appeared on the show; Miles Davis made six appearances. Clifford Brown's appearance on Soupy's On, according to Sales, may be the only extant footage of Brown, and has been included in Ken Burns' Jazz and an A&E Network biography about Sales.

Sales briefly had a third dinnertime show filmed largely in Detroit's Palmer Park area. His three shows were rumored to earn him in excess of $100,000 per year. One of his character puppets was Willy the Worm, a "balloon" propelled worm that emerged from its house and used a high pitched voice to announce birthdays or special events on the noontime show; but the character never appeared when Soupy moved to Los Angeles. In his lunchtime show, Sales always wore an orlon fabric sweater. In many of his shows, he appeared in costume, performed his dance, the Soupy Shuffle, introduced many characters such as Nicky Nooney, the Mississippi Gambler, etc., and took "zillions" of pies in the face.

Los Angeles
In 1960, Sales moved to the ABC-TV studios in Los Angeles. ABC cancelled his show in March 1961, but it continued as a local program on KABC-TV until January 1962. It briefly went back on the ABC network as a late night fill-in for The Steve Allen Show in 1962, but was canceled after three months. All of the puppets on the show during its Los Angeles run were also operated by Clyde Adler, whom a 1962 TV Guide listing describes as "West Coast disk jockey and comedian". Sales' fame was significant enough that he was hired as a Tonight Show guest host in the period between Jack Paar and Johnny Carson.

New York
On September 7, 1964, Sales found a new weekday home at WNEW-TV in New York City. This version was seen locally until September 2, 1966. Screen Gems syndicated 260 episodes to local stations outside the New York market during the 1965–66 season. This show marked the height of Sales' popularity. It featured guest appearances by stars such as Frank Sinatra, Tony Curtis, Jerry Lewis, Judy Garland and Sammy Davis Jr., as well as musical groups like the Shangri-Las, The Supremes and The Temptations.

The New Soupy Sales Show: Los Angeles
The New Soupy Sales Show appeared in 1978 with the same format, and ran for one season. 65 episodes were briefly syndicated, through Air Time International, to local stations in early 1979. It was taped in Los Angeles at KTLA, with Clyde Adler returning to work as a puppeteer with Sales.

Characters
Clyde Adler, the show's floor manager and a film editor at Detroit's WXYZ, performed in sketches and voiced and operated all puppets on Sales' show in Detroit in the 1950s and in Los Angeles from 1959 to 1962, as well as in 1978. Actor Frank Nastasi, who played the part of Gramps on WXYZ-TV's other kids' show Wixie Wonderland, assumed the role of straight man and puppeteer when Sales took the show to New York from 1964 to 1966. Nastasi was originally from Detroit and had worked with Sales at WXYZ. Appearing on the show were both puppets and live performers.

The puppets were:
 * White Fang, "The Biggest and Meanest Dog in the USA", who appeared only as a giant white shaggy paw with black triangular felt "claws", jutting out from the corner of the screen. Fang spoke with unintelligible short grunts and growls, which Soupy repeated back in English, for comic effect. White Fang was often the pie thrower when Soupy's jokes bombed.
 * Black Tooth, "The Biggest and Sweetest Dog in the USA", also seen only as a giant black paw with white triangular felt claws, and with more feminine, but similarly unintelligible, dialogue. Black Tooth's trademark was pulling Soupy off-camera to give loud and noisy kisses.
 * For a short time there was a third dog character that became White Fang's girlfriend, Marilyn Monwolf. She caused some rivalry of affections between Black Tooth and White Fang, but later jilted them both for Joe Dogmaggio.
 * Pookie the Lion, a lion puppet appearing in a large window behind Soupy (1950s), was a hipster with a rapier wit. For example: Soupy: "Do you know why my life is so miserable?" Pookie: "You got me!" Soupy: "That's why!" One of Pookie's favorite lines when greeting Soupy was, "Hey bubby... want a kiss?".  In the Detroit shows, Pookie never spoke but communicated in whistles.  That puppet also was used to mouth the words while pantomiming novelty records on the show.
 * Hippy the Hippo, a minor character who occasionally appeared with Pookie the Lion. Frank Nastasi gave Hippy a voice for the New York shows. Clyde Adler also voiced Hippy in the shows done in the late 1970s.

New Year's Day incident
On January 1, 1965, miffed at having to work on the holiday, Sales ended his live broadcast by encouraging his young viewers to tiptoe into their still-sleeping parents' bedrooms and remove those "funny green pieces of paper with pictures of U.S. presidents" from their pants and pocketbooks. "Put them in an envelope and mail them to me and I'll send you a postcard from Puerto Rico", Sales instructed the children. Several days later, substantial amounts of money had begun arriving in the mail; Sales stated that the total amount received was in the thousands of dollars but qualified that by stating that much of that was Monopoly or play money. Sales said he had been joking, and that whatever real money had been sent would be donated to charity, but as parents' complaints increased, WNEW's management suspended Sales for two weeks.

Records
One of the fans of the Soupy Sales show was Frank Sinatra. It appears Sinatra became a fan after his daughter Nancy begged him to visit the show. When Sinatra started his own record label, Reprise Records, he signed Sales to a recording contract, which produced two albums: The Soupy Sales Show in 1961 and Up in the Air in 1962.

Sales' novelty dance record, '"The Mouse", dates from the mid-1960s period of his career, when his show was based in New York. The single, released on the ABC-Paramount label, peaked at #76 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in May 1965. Sales performed "The Mouse" on The Ed Sullivan Show in September 1965, just prior to The Beatles' segment on the show. Sales signed with Motown Records in 1969, releasing the single "Muck-Arty Park" (a play on the 1968 hit "MacArthur Park"), as well as the album A Bag of Soup. Soupy and Frank Nastasi also cut and recorded a comedy and song story disk, "Spy with a Pie", for ABC-Paramount. It was re-released by "Simon Says" children's records.

Game shows
From 1968 to 1975, Sales was a regular panelist on the syndicated revival of What's My Line?. (He had been a guest panelist on one episode of the original version in 1965.) He was usually the first panelist introduced and occupied the chair on the far left side (facing the camera), next to Arlene Francis. In 1969, he appeared on Storybook Squares, a children's version of Hollywood Squares, as Henry VIII. In 1976, he hosted Junior Almost Anything Goes, ABC's Saturday morning version of their team-based physical stunt program. He was also a panelist on the 1980 revival of To Tell the Truth; he had appeared as a guest on the show during the mid- to late 1970s. Other game show appearances included over a dozen episodes of the original Match Game from 1966 to 1969 as well as one week of the revived version in 1976; a week of shows on the 1970s edition of The Gong Show; a couple of guest spots on Hollywood Squares (December 12, 1977, and April 4, 1978) and a few appearances on the combined version (Match Game-Hollywood Squares Hour) in 1983–84; and a recurring role in all versions of Pyramid from 1973 to 1988 and 1991 (in one famous episode of which he repeatedly uttered the word "bacon", trying to get a confused contestant to say "greasy things"). He was considered as a host in Nickelodeon's game show, Double Dare, but was deemed too old (the job went to Marc Summers). He also made an appearance on Pictionary in 1997.

Radio show
Sales hosted a midday radio show on WNBC in New York from March 1985 to March 1987. His program was between the drive time shifts of Don Imus (morning) and Howard Stern (afternoon), with whom Sales had an acrimonious relationship. An example of this was an incident where Stern told listeners he was cutting the strings in Sales' in-studio piano at 4:05 p.m. on May 1, 1985. On December 21, 2007, Stern revealed this was a stunt staged for "theater of the mind" and to torture Sales; in truth, the piano was never harmed. Sales' on-air crew included his producer, Ray D'Ariano, newscaster Judy DeAngelis, and pianist Paul Dver.

Film
Sales had a sporadic film career that spanned over 40 years, including:
 * 1961 – The Two Little Bears

Personal life
Sales was married twice: first to Barbara Fox, from 1950 until their divorce in 1979. They had two sons, both of whom are rock musicians: bassist Tony Sales and drummer Hunt Sales. The brothers were the rhythm section for Todd Rundgren in the early '70s, then for Iggy Pop starting in the mid-'70s, and later were half the band Tin Machine with David Bowie and Reeves Gabrels, from 1988 to 1992. In 1980, Sales married dancer Trudy Carson, who survives him.

Sales died on October 22, 2009, at Calvary Hospice in Bronx, New York, aged 83, from cancer. He is buried at Kensico Cemetery in Valhalla, New York.

Reruns
Janet Oseroff was Sales' manager in the last years of his life, and she continues to represent his estate with Sales' wife Trudy.

Talk:Orthosie (moon)

Comments
Since final -ia, -ie, and -ee in Greek loans are all traditionally pronounced [ee-uh] in English, this moon should probably be pronounced the same as Orthosia, [or-THO-see-uh]. However, I received the following email from someone at JPL who signed only as "Ellis":

"Pronunciation of the moon names is an iffy thing at best. We still don't have universal agreement on the pronunciation of the Galilean satellite names.  I can make an educated guess, but that is all it is:  Euporie (you-POOR-ee)   Orthosie (ore-THO-see)  Pasithee (PASS-i-thee)"

 * Seeing as "pronunciation of the moon names is an iffy thing at best", why aren't the moon names using broad transcription, like the rest of WP? I don't think you can expect laymen to understand the distinction between [i] and [ɨ] which is phonetic, not phonemic for many speakers of English and should not be used inside of slashes. The same goes for [ɵ] and possibly others used in other moon names. -Craig Pemberton (talk) 14:53, 18 September 2009 (UTC)

Northwest School, Seattle

The Northwest School (originally The Northwest School of the Arts, Humanities and Environment) is a private/independent day and boarding school located on Seattle, Washington's First Hill. The school was founded in 1980 and is primarily located in the 1905 Summit School building, an official City of Seattle landmark that was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.

The school's student body includes approximately 500 day and boarding students, in grades 6-12, some 16% of whom are from outside the United States. The school has attracted international students for decades, and international opportunities for domestic students range from Central America to Ethiopia.

As of 2020, school review website Niche ranks The Northwest School as the third-best boarding high school, eleventh best private high school, and the twelfth best college prep private high school in Washington state.

History
The Northwest School was founded in 1980 by Ellen Taussig, Paul Raymond, and Mark Terry.

Alongside the historic Summit School building and the school's dormitory for boarding students, modern additions to the Northwest campus were completed in 2006 (expanded photography studio, library, and computer lab) and 2014 (gymnasium, fitness mezzanine, dining room, kitchen, black-box theatre and a rooftop sports field).

Academics
The school's Humanities program encompasses history, literature and art history in a lecture and discussion format. All high school students take a three-year Humanities core program, one year each of Physical Science, Biology, and Chemistry, and a minimum of three years each of mathematics and a foreign language. Students take two fine art classes each year and must complete at least one class each of theater, visual art, music, and dance before graduation. Fine Arts classes are taught by recognized practitioners.

The school's seniors undertake one advanced seminar in writing, philosophy or literature, and another in the social studies—such as an introductory law seminar, post-colonial studies, Latin American studies, Asian studies, and women's studies. The social studies seminar requires completion of two senior projects: volunteer activity with a political campaign during the fall and a written thesis during the second half of the year. Seniors simultaneously continue with a full academic course load that includes 2-3 courses from the mathematics, science, or language departments and at least one arts course.

Athletics
Sports played at Northwest include Soccer, Cross country running, Track and Field, Basketball, Volleyball, Ultimate Frisbee, and Fitness Team. The school's administration also works to facilitate student participation in city, regional and other intramural sports, such as golf, swimming, water polo and crew.

The Northwest School is very competitive in Ultimate Frisbee.[citation needed] The upper school's varsity men have won Western National Championships in 2005, 2006, 2007 and 2011, and Northwest students made up half of the team that captured the Club National Championship in the summers of 2005 and 2007. In fall 2011, the boys' varsity team had a perfect record of 23-0, winning the inaugural Seattle Invite and the Washington State Championship along the way. That year, both the male and female varsity teams won the Western National Championships and the Washington State Championships. Middle school and high school participation combined is over 30% of the student population.

Notably, Maddie Meyers placed first in the WIAA 1A state cross country championships in 2008, 2009, 2010, and 2011, first in the 1600 m and 3200 m at the state track championships in 2009, 2010, and 2011, and first in the 800 m at the state track championships in 2010 and 2011. She also competed in the 2011 IAAF World Youth Championships.

Talk:Pasithee (moon)

Untitled
Since final -ia, -ie, and -ee in Greek loans are all traditionally pronounced [ee-uh] in English, this moon should probably be pronounced the same as Pasithea, [pa-SITH-ee-uh] (per the Random House dictionary). However, I received the following email from someone at JPL who only signed as "Ellis":

"Pronunciation of the moon names is an iffy thing at best. We still don't have universal agreement on the pronunciation of the Galilean satellite names.  I can make an educated guess, but that is all it is:  Euporie (you-POOR-ee)   Orthosie (ore-THO-see)  Pasithee (PASS-i-thee)

Unlike Euporie and Orthosie, in Pasithee this shifts the placement of the accent.

In more traditional spelling, there is a dieresis over the second e to show that the name Pasithee has four syllables. ________________

The Greek spelling is Πασιθεη, which is Latinized as either Pasithea or Pasitheë. --kwami

Name Origin
In discussing the namesake of this moon, the article states, "Pasithee, better known as Aglaea, is the spouse of Hypnos (Sleep) and presides over hallucinations and hallucinogens." As far as I am aware, Pasithea/Pasithee and Aglaea are different persons entirely--one is the spouse of Hypnos and the other of Hephaestus. Is there some kind text that identifies Pasithea with Aglaea, or is this simply an error in the article? 2601:989:457E:1D10:8507:FCFA:EDDF:E0E2 (talk) 21:40, 29 August 2022 (UTC)

Talk:Wakefulness

Early comments
Bizarre. - Ta bu shi da yu 06:52, 30 Jul 2004 (UTC)

Joan Tollifson describes 'awakening' thus:

Awakening isn't about acquiring some psychedelic vision or having some sustained oceanic sensation. It is simply about noticing that everything (mental movies, dreams, perceptions, thoughts, waking life, mirages, the I-illusion, apparent duality, time and space, chairs, tables, expansion, contraction, meditation retreats, traffic jams, everything) is without substance or continuity, and it all appears and disappears right here. Here is always here. It's always now. Even memories of the past, fantasies about the future, and thoughts of elsewhere can only appear here and now in the timeless, spaceless no-thing-ness of present awareness. This is all there is. Leo1

Do animals not listen while they are awake? Nic.Moon

After the AfD
Above mentioned Afd resulted in No consensus, but showed two things:
 * Most arguing for keeping the article, would also consider renaming it, e.g. to Wakefulness
 * A number of edtors would support moving the disambiguation page to Awake

Since the two objectives seem to be combatible with each other and wiht the Afd outcome, I would proceed with the moves. --Tikiwont 08:50, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

hehehe
"...and productively think and work in the awake state; however, humans cannot fly while in the awake state."

I lol'd hard at the obviousness of this statement...just saying. Zell65 (talk) 11:14, 21 September 2008 (UTC)

 * It does seem to suggest that we can fly while asleep.... --Hordaland (talk) 23:16, 5 July 2014 (UTC)

Anabolism and Catabolism both occur independent of the sleep/wake cycle. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.248.168.161 (talk) 03:47, 29 June 2009 (UTC)

As a state of (self) awareness?
Does anyone else feel that the first paragraph in this section, which doesn't say a lot but contains the name Kabat-Zinn 4 times, smells a bit like a advert for Mr Kabat-Zinn? — Preceding unsigned comment added by BongoPedro (talk • contribs) 12:22, 18 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Yes it does! And sentences like "it may be helpful to begin by first splashing cold water on your face so that you are less likely to fall asleep" are more like a how-to instruction than "encyclopedic". Please feel free to shorten the sentences!  Lova Falk     talk   18:32, 18 March 2013 (UTC)

Wakefulness ≠ Mindfulness
In the physical state of wakefulness, one is not asleep. "Mindfulness" is something more or different; it needs at most a short mention in this article. --Hordaland (talk) 00:31, 6 July 2014 (UTC)
 * But is that enough reason to remove the template and the category?  Joshua Jonathan   -  Let's talk!   05:23, 6 July 2014 (UTC)

It's also a measure (degrees of wakefulness); also this page seems to have false interlanguage links
Wakefulness does not only refer to the binary state of being awake but also the "degree" of wakefulness of a person.

This degree can vary per person, day / time and can de- or increase (including by artificial or purposeful means).

This needs to be added to the page's lead.

Also this page seems to be linked to Bewusstseinszustand and other language versions of that page which translates to "State of consciousness" and not "wakefulness". The "Bewusstseinszustand" article lists the state of being awake as one of many states. Hence it needs to be delinked, more appropriate other language pages be linked and potentially new pages need to be created.

Talk:Aitne (moon)

Untitled
Some people try pronouncing this as [ITE-nee], but the Anglicized pronunciation is [ET-nee] according to The Dictionary of Classical Mythology (JE Zimmerman, Harper & Row, 1964). The Greek ai is the diphthong written ae in Latin, and generally reduced to e in US English (as in encyclopedia for encyclopaedia, etc.; Aitne is a variant spelling of the volcano Etna). The more Hellenic spelling ai is generally pronounced ay (compare Gaea jee'-a vs. Gaia gay'-a), but in closed syllables this still reduces to a short e. --kwami
