Talk:Reddiar

Groupism i.e., Caste origin
The origin of groupism i.e., caste seems to have started with people trying to refer to themselves as one group. There was no divisions and sub divisions until different people started competing for the same resources and had to organize themselves into groups to improve their chances in competing.

Lathead 12:05, 5 October 2007 (UTC)

This article mistakes all reddiars in Tamilnadu are konda reddys. In fact, Diwan Bahadur Agaram Subbarayalu Reddiar[1] ( Telugu: అగరం సుబ్బరాయలు రెడ్డియార్, Tamil: அகரம் சுப்பராயலு ரெட்டியார்) (b. 15 October 1855 – d. November 1921) was a landlord, Justice Party leader and Chief Minister or Premier of Madras Presidency from 17 December 1920 to 11 July 1921.[2] So, there needs to be a suitable correction. There are many kinds of reddiars in Tamilnadu, historically. And most are classified as Forward castes. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 73.132.204.177 (talk) 23:50, 24 November 2016 (UTC)
 * This editorial is so vague confusing not able to understand by average readers on what the editor have to change.The editorial is not in encyclopedic style, unsourced and confusing.--Universalrahu (talk) 21:33, 27 November 2016 (UTC)

Subdivision origin
Another reason for groupism came from the profession followed by the differnt groups. As people changed professions, they also had to change names to reflect those professions. However they needed to differentiate themselves from people who were already using those professional names. So as people took up farming they had to call themselves Vellala. However since other groups were using Vellala as title, different groups with additional names were created. Thus were created the various groups of Vellala.

Reddiar and Reddy same?
Someone please clarify to me if Reddy and Reddiar are same clan of people --Vyzasatya 20:01, 16 December 2005 (UTC)

 * Yes, Reddiar and Reddy are originally from the same caste, The differences in the names have come up during the centuries mainly because of the way they were pronounced in Tamil and Telugu and also had to do with the regional slag.If you happen to visit the Telugu University in Hyderabad go to the library and you will a old book written in old telugu script, which you may not be able to read every word (escpecially the old telugu numbers and the book is in blue cover titled something like Telugu "bahsha kula varnalu" (Meaning: languages & various castes) and the author referees about this in the paragraph about Reddy's. There is also a paragraph which talks about the penukonda king (or some family member of the royalty) who helped construct the Thirupathi temple, When the Srirangapatnam was captured by British the British appointed the vadoyrs for mysore/madras presidency and some reddiar who he referees as some heir of penukonda dynasty as a appointee for the anathapur/penukonda region.
 * unknown author did not sign
 * It may be but they dont intermarry in Tamil nadu, you can see very clearly in Brides or Bridegrooms wanted adds calling out for Tamil speaking Reddiar groom or bride wanted. In Tamil diaspora it is a title used by Tamil people but freely intermarry amongst every one else and even the people who have the tile do not know that the title is of Telugu origin unless they research the topic. But by then all so called Telugu norms have become part of the local Tamil norms.

Konda Reddis of Tirunelveli District
KONDA REDDIS OF TIRUNELVELI DISTRICT

INTRODUCTION: The contents of this page is purely on the basis of British Period Government records, Historical Books, Anthropological Books, Very old Sale deeds, Settlement Registers(1876), Re-Settlement Registers(1920), various Reports of District Collector, RDO, Tahsildars etc. In Tamil Nadu the Konda Reddis are facing so many problems from Revenue Department as well as from the Employers. Therefore, this Web site will give a clear picture about Konda Reddis Origin, Migration and Settlement. Moreover, I hope this Web Site will help the True Konda Reddis to get their legitimate constitutional rights.

ORIGIN: The Origin of Konda Reddis of Tamil Nadu is East, West Godavari District, Khamman District and Vizagapatnam District of Andhra Pradesh. According to Encyclopedia of Indian Tribes “The Konda Reddis are Princely Tribes – ruled sizable areas in Srikakulam and Godavari District. In West Godavari District the Konda Reddis who styled themselves as Racha Reddis, reigned over the territory covering the present Taluks of Kovvur, Polavaram and Chintalapudi in West Godavari District. The area in fact is called Reddi Seema after the Konda Reddi rulers.”

MIGRATION: After the fall of the Vijayanagar Empire and “Konda Veedu” many Konda Reddis fled into the nearby States Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Kerala etc.

SETTLEMENTS: The Konda Reddis of Tirunelveli District, mostly the origin of Kovvur, Polavaram, Kondapilly (Konda Pally), Gundala, Nelli, Maddhi Veedu etc. of Andhra Pradesh. Though the Konda Reddy Tribes settled in many Villages in Tirunelveli District, their presence is very much felt in Seelathikulam, Parameswarapuram, Samugarengapuram, Chidambarapuram etc. This can be proved from the Settlement Register (1876), Re-Settlement Register (1920), Sale Deeds etc. The Konda Reddis suffixed the Origin Village name with their name. Such names are given below: 01.	Kovvur Kumarasamy Reddiar 02.	Nelli Konda Reddiar 03.	Kovvur Subba Reddiar 04.	Gundala Pedda Reddiar 05.	Konda Pilli Chinnasamy Reddiar 06.	Kovvur Krishnasamy Reddiar 07.	Maddhi Veedu Subba Reddiar 08.	Gundala Gopala Reddiar

OCCUPATION: When the Konda Reddi tribes migrated from Andhra Pradesh, first they settled in Madurai District. When the Pandya King not favoured the Tribes, they moved to southwards. At that time the Southern parts were overrun with Jungle and there was no much inhabitants, the Konda Reddis settled in Tirunelveli District. After settlement, they cleared the jungles and engaged in Agriculture and allied activities. Settled cultivation is mainly practiced by the Konda Reddis of Tirunelveli District. Due to poor rainfall, some Konda Reddis migrated to Ceylon (Srilanka) and nearby Kerala State.

LANGUAGE: The mother tongue of Konda Reddis is Telugu. But nowadays they speak Tamil also in their homes.

TITLE: The Konda Reddys used to suffix the Title or surname Reddiar, Konda Reddiar and Reddy in earlier days, but now most of them do not use the Titles or Community surnames. In the Book of Edgar Thurston – Castes and Tribes of Southern India (1909) mentioned that “the Konda Reddis call themselves by various high sounding Titles, such as Pandava Reddis, Raja Reddis and Reddis of Solar Race (Surya Vamsa) and do not like the plain name of Konda Reddi”. In the Settlement Register (1876), Re-Settlement Register and in some Old Sale deeds and Voters list the following names are found to prove the above.

01. M.Konda Reddi	:  Mela Veedu Peria Konda Reddi 02. T.Konda Reddi	:  Therkku Veedu Konda Reddi 03. T.Konda Reddi	:  Thamarai Konda Reddi 04. K.Konda Reddi	:  Keela Veedu Konda Reddi 05. M.Konda Reddi	:  Mulai Veedu Konda Reddi 06. T.Konda Reddi	:  Theyilai Konda Reddi 07. R.Konda Reddi	:  Ramsamy Konda Reddi 08. N.Konda Reddi	:  Nambi Konda Reddi 09. S.Konda Reddi	:  Sinna Konda Reddi 10. V.Konda Reddi	:  Veeravagu Konda Reddi 11. S.R.Konda Reddi	:  Sinna Ramasamy Konda Reddi 12. S.T.R. Konda Reddi	:  Seelathikulam Therkku Veedu Ramasamy Konda                    	   Reddi 13. S.V.Konda Reddi	:  Seelathikulam Veera Konda Reddi 14. P.Konda Reddi	:  Pangula Konda Reddi 15. P.S. Konda Reddi	:  Pothedi Subbiah Konda Reddi 16. M.Konda Reddi	:  Muthusamy Konda Reddi 17. A.M.Konda Reddi	:  Asthar Muthusamy Konda Reddi 18. S.N.Konda Reddi	:  Seelathikulam Nambi Konda Reddi 19. N.Konda Reddi	:  Nelli Konda Reddi 20. M.Konda Redi	:  Machavar Konda Reddi 21. L.Konda Reddi	:  Lakshmana Konda Reddi 22. S.R.Konda Reddi	:  Seelathikulam Ramsamy Konda Reddi 23. M.R.Konda Reddi	:  Mula Veedu Ramasamy Konda Reddi 24. T.Konda Reddi	:  Thur Konda Reddi 25. M.Konda Reddi	:  Maddhi Veedu Konda Reddi

EXOGAMOUS UNITS/CLANS: Konda Reddis are divided into Clans. The Clan is permanent and his transference from one clan to another even in case of adoption, impossibility. The main function of Clan is the regulation of Marriage. In accordance with Telugu custom, this name is nowadays described as a “House Name” or Intiperu (Telugu Term). Some important clans of Konda Reddi Tribes of Tirunelveli District are given below:

01.	Pothedivar 02. Pangulavar 03. Padavattivar(Descendant of Mela Veedu Peria Konda Reddi)       04. Uttrattivar (Descendant of Vadakku Veedu Konda Reddi) 05. Thatchattivar(Descendant of Therkku Veedu Konda Reddi) 06. Mula Veeddar(Descendant of Mula Veedu Konda Reddi) 07. Thurvattivar (Descendant of Keela Veedu Konda Reddi) 08. Machavar 09. Garvar 10. Gavadivar 11. Maddhittivar 12. Nellivar 13. Poladivar 14. Annadivar 15. Konda Pillivar 16. Batthattivar 17. Kondlavar 18. Chendlavar 19. Kotlavar 20. Menuruvar 21. Rajendrathar 22. Penuruvar 23. Kanabalavar 24. Ventlavar 25. Potlavar 26. Pogulavar 27. Poterivar 28. Kanugulavar 29. Buzarvar 30. Peeruvar 31. Chedlavar 32. Thurvar.

RELIGION AND WORSHIP: Konda Reddis Tribe of Tirunelveli District is all Hindus. They are very superstitious and practice all the rites of demonolatry like the low caste People and besmear their bodies with ashes. The Konda Reddis profess to be both Saivites and Vaishnavites. They worship Muthalamman, Parvathi Amman, Gangamman, Thenattamman and other Village Deities. During Temple Festivals Goats, Pigs, Chickens are offered to the Village Deity and feasts are arranged during Temple Festivals. In the Konda Reddi Villages each Clan has Separate Deities and the Clan Member performs Poojas and arranges Temple Festival. The Konda Reddis also worship ancestors including women who have died before their husbands. The Konda Reddis have the habits of Caste Hindus. Konda Reddis are not untouchables.

SOCIAL ORGANISATION: Konda Reddis have very good administration capacity and practice well defined democratic methods. The system is called Village Panchayat. Each and every Konda Reddi family is a member of the Village Panchayat. In Seelathikulam Village the “Mela Veedu Konda Reddi” family descendants are having the first right to perform poojas in Village Temple. This post is hereditary and belongs to the family that established the clan. Since his authority is mainly religious, he appropriates as the Chief Priest also. The Konda Reddis have a good communication network through a messenger designated by the Community itself. Any message of good or bad is communicated by him to others.

FOOD HABITS: The Konda Reddis of Tirunelveli District are Non-Vegetarians. They eat meat, which strict Vaishnavas in other places will not do. During Temple Festivals at the conclusion ceremony, the Konda Reddis cook meat and will present a portion to the priest and drink arrack. The Konda Reddis will not eat cooked food at the hands of a person of lower caste. Konda Reddi women will not cook during menstruation and after child birth. Nowadays, the Konda Reddi People dines with lower caste people.

PHYSICAL FEATURES: The Konda Reddis of Tirunelveli District look smart and active. In the Book “Tribes of South India” by J.F.KEARNS, Missionary of the Propagation Society, Tinnevelly(1881) narrates as follows – “The Women are finer than the men. They are tall presenting an average height of five feet nine inches. Though so tall, they are well formed; their carriage – indeed, that of all Hindu Women – is very graceful and would bear comparison with that of the most perfect modiste in Europe. No European moves with so much grace and elegance. Their faces are extremely intelligent; the nose is prominent, well formed and angular; the eyebrows well and gracefully arched;  and the forehead rising gracefully rounds off over the temples, giving them quite an aristocratic look”

MARRIAGE: The forms of Marriage customs among the Reddis are similar to those obtaining ordinarily in the Telugu Country. If a proper marriage after negotiation is performed, a Brahmin Priest officiates and Tali is tied. Widow Remarriages and divorce are customarily approved practice. The Custom of marrying the deceased elder brother’s widow or sister of deceased wife is also an accepted practice among Konda Reddis. Payment of oli or Bride’s money is a practising custom. Property rights and houses are vested on the paternal side and bequeathed to male progeny only. The Konda Reddis are not debarred from inter-marrying with ordinary Reddis, they had the status of a socially superior class. In the earlier days Konda Reddis marriage was performed with feast for three days.

CURRENT STATUS: The Konda Reddis own land. Now, this Tribe has some Entrepreneurs, Job-holders, Engineers, Doctors, and Lawyers etc. Consequent to the controversy over the Constitutional Status of the Konda Reddis, their identity is under transition. Some sections have retained their identity as ‘Scheduled Tribe’ to get the Government concessions, others have not. Due to contact with the local people, the Konda Reddis changed their life style. They dress in the style of Non-Tribals.

CONCLUSION: The Konda Reddis of Tirunelveli District are having more than 100 vital documents to prove their Origin and Migrational history. After 1980 due to the controversy over the constitutional status of the Konda Reddis, most of the Konda Reddis not claimed any benefits from Government. If any Konda Reddi claimed, the concerned RDO is delaying/not issuing the Community Certificate. However, by a preliminary study over this tribe by an Anthropologist confirmed the Konda Reddis claim as ‘Scheduled Tribe’ is genuine one. Therefore, the Government should consider issuing community Certificates to the genuine Konda Reddy Tribes to avail at least ONE PERCENT RESERVATION provided by the Government.

How many Reddiar castes are there in Tamil Nadu?
This article only mentions about Reddy Ganjam.Are there any other Telugu castes using Reddiar title.I also suggest this article be merged with Reddy.

Dear UniversalRaghu:

Received your message that suggest the edits do not meet the wikipedia editorial standards. I respectfully disagree. Please explain why the article does not meet the editorial standards. Here is why the edits were made, and explicit support for the edits is already on the main page.

The entry on current status is accurate. The entry was extensively researched. Every entry was carefully considered, keeping in mind the current ground reality. And primary sources carefully considered before each revision was made. The primary sources in this entry deals with proving something which is described as list of exclusions. For example, both the central government and the Tamilnadu state government release lists of communities who are entitled to reservation. Or in other words, there is no state or central government list in existence which shows communities which are NOT entitled to reservation

Given this context, all revisions made on April 28, 2017 use the following order for primary sources (Please see the current wikipedia entry repoduced below for all sources:

(1) Sources which are produced by the central government or state government, which deal with the issue. There were two primary sources which meet this definition: (1)(a) parliamentary debates, where a Member of Parliament makes representations to the Indian Parliament. These debates are fact checked by the Rajya Sabha secretariat, any factually incorrect entries purged or corrected before publication. The primary reference which       suggests Reddiars are a forward community currently is such a representation by a member of parliament in 2006. (1)(b) Madras High Court petition where one of the issues which needed to be addressed to arrive at the judgement, was "whether reddiars are forward community?" The High Court judgement is dispositive that Hindu Reddiars are forward community. Please note that in India all Christians and Muslims are generally considered forward communities and are not provided reservation. Although, there are exceptions to this rule. The Madras High Court uses Hindu Reddiar to make this legal distinction explicit. Any person who changes religion from hinduism to Christianity, will lose their backward status in most instances for the purposes of reservation as far the government of India is concerned. So the Madras High Court explicitly states Hindu Reddiars are forward community not entitled to reservation.

(2)Sources which are produced by reputed university publications, which deal with the issue. The sources which meet this definition include: (2)Books published by subject matter experts from a reputed university. I believe the books were edited by Indiana University press, Princeton University Press etc. (3) Sources which are produced by reputed news papers, which deal with the issue. The sources which meet this definition include: (3)(a) News papers such as the telegraph and others reporting on the status of reddiars and any relevant legal disputes. (4) Sources which are produced by other sources, which deal with the issue. Some of these sources include a sage publication book, which explicitly provides references of Reddiars and various disputes and how they are considered forward community members currently. This source although rated at four has explicit references of forward community reddiars. The relevant pages is page 88,. This reference in other pages shows Reddiars and their interaction with dalits which is particularly telling of why majority of Reddiars are considered forward community. However, these interactions may be disparaging and were not referenced and instead a neutral page, i.e., page 88 was used in the final entry. See pages 98, 99, 97, 20, 19, 96 and 16.

The intent of the article wasn't to malign any community but to produce an accurate account of the current reality. So the edits are factually consistent, while avoiding issues created by a few individuals. Please let me know why you feel the editorial standards are not met with more specificity.

In conclusion, the issue being addressed is what's the current status of Reddiars in India and in Tamilnadu. A majority of Reddiars in India and Tamilnadu are classified as forward community as of April 30, 2017. Exceptions to this general rule sub-sects such as Ganjam Reddy, Koda reddy who constitute a minority of the community. Also note that the entry has to use reliable sources to establish a Negative. So the ordered list provided above was used to prove the negative and meet wikipedia standards. Finally, the entry reflects ground reality, i.e. majority of the reddiars in India are forward caste, without disparaging one community, sub-sect or the other. And at the same time produce a good wikipedia entry which is accurate. That's the reason for the various considered edits on April 28, 2017. Each successive edit on April 28, 2017 was made only after the primary sources made "proving the negative" possible, i.e. that a community not listed in the central government and tamilnadu state government lists is for the most part a forward community. Therefore, I respectfully disagree the entry does not meet the wikipedia editorial standards or that corrections are appropriate.

Reproducing the current status of the wikipedia page:

Current status
In India, Reddiars are classified as Forward caste. In Tamilnadu, Reddiars are classified as Forward Caste by the British. For example, the first chief minister of Tamil Nadu was a Reddiar. Today, Reddiars are generally classified as Forward Caste in Tamilnadu. For example, a Member of Parliment in Rajya Sabha in 2006 distinguished between Reddiars who are generally classified as forward castes in Tamilnadu and Koda Reddys who are classified as Scheduled Tribes in Tamilnadu. Similarly, the Madras High Court in 2015 considered this distinction between Reddiars who are generally classified as forward castes and konda reddys who are classified as Scheduled Tribes as dispositive a writ petition in a reservation case in Tamilnadu. After Independence, some sub-castes among Reddiars in Tamilnadu such a Ganjam Reddys have been included in the Backward Class list by the state government. Some sub-castes like Ganjam Reddys from Tamilnadu have now sought classification as backwards caste in the central government list. Konda Reddys are classified as Scheduled Tribes. Reddiars are classified as Backward caste, in Kerala where they migrated to in early 1900. Some Reddiars in kerala are considered protected minorities, who need better educational access due to merchantile roots of Reddiars in Kerala and lack of significant land ownership. There is a separate section of Reddiars called Konda Reddy who were considered Shudras in British surveys, who follow tribal customs. Recently, Konda Reddys in Odissa have been pressing for inclusion in the Scheduled Tribes list.

Fair use rationale for Image:Projector album cover.jpg
Image:Projector album cover.jpg is being used on this article.

In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Portable dope lab

 This page is an archive of the discussion about the proposed deletion of the article below. This page is no longer live. Further comments should be made on the article's talk page rather than here so that this page is preserved as an historic record. The result of the debate was DELETE. jni 15:09, 3 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Portable dope lab
This reads like something out of the anarchists cookbook.. Just terrible. "A portable dope lab is a mobile drug lab where weed renegades manufacture dope for there homies in gang territory and other places"... Delete I say.. Preisler 01:36, 24 Feb 2005 (UTC) This page is now preserved as an archive of the debate and, like some other VfD subpages, is no longer 'live'. Subsequent comments on the issue, the deletion, or the decision-making process should be placed on the relevant 'live' pages. Please do not edit this page.

 * Delete. Where are the notable references and evidence to prove that this thing exists? Zzyzx11 06:11, 24 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. I'm reasonably certain that I have heard numerous references to "portable drug labs," but (a) this isn't "lab"; (b) the definition is ... *ahem* ... in need of help; and, (c) I don't think either term is encyclopedic (except perhaps deserving mention in a larger article on illicit drugs). HyperZonktalk 17:22, Feb 24, 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, no potential to become verifiable and encyclopedic. Primer time, kids:  Although the word "dope" has been used (since the 1920s or earlier) for heroin or for marijuana or for illicit drugs as a class, "weed" is cannabis plants, marijuana, which isn't "manufactured" in "labs", it's grown.  There is no point in a mobile lab for "weed renegades", unless you really want to hang harvested plants upside-down in a trailer for a week and risk the odor drawing law-enforcement attention.  Some white frat boy must have watched a movie about black teens ("there homies"???) and tried to make a WP entry as a vanity exercise.  Preisler's comment is disrespectful to the real Anarchists' Cookbook.  Barno 21:07, 24 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Talk:List of programs broadcast by CBC Television

Untitled
This article should also have French-language programs broadcast on the SRC network. (Alphaboi867 01:38, 24 Feb 2005 (UTC))

Doctor Who
Shouldn't a note be placed by Doctor Who for two reasons? First, CBC does plan to renew said show,and second, while made by BBC Wales, the CBC provides a major portion of its funding. Orville Eastland (talk) 22:17, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

Non-Canadian shows
While I realize that the intent of shading Coronation Street and Jeopardy! in the prime time grid in this article was to set them apart as the non-Canadian shows within a schedule that's otherwise all-Canadian content, the problem is that the colour that was used is the same shade of red that's used in other Canadian television articles to set apart the shows that are Canadian content — thus leading to potential confusion if people compare its usage across the articles.

I don't actually think the shading is necessary at all, since the presence of parenthetical (UK)/(US) after the program title should suffice to indicate their status as non-Canadian programs — but if shading those boxes is genuinely seen as necessary or desired by other editors, then the colour needs to be different from the one we use for the opposite purpose on other articles.

We are working together to use open government data to improve the Wikimedia projects, and we would love your help. All are welcome, regardless of coding or editing experience. We will also be having a happy hour the day before, with refreshments courtesy of the Sunlight Foundation.

On Friday, April 11 we are having our first edit-a-thon ever with the Library of Congress. The Africa Collection Edit-a-Thon will focus on the Library's African and Middle East Reading Room. It'll be early in the morning, but it's especially worth it if you're interested in improving Wikipedia's coverage of African topics.

The following day, we are having our second annual Wiki Loves Capitol Hill training. We will discuss policy issues relevant to Wikimedia and plan for our day of outreach to Congressional staffers that will take place during the following week.

There are other meetups in the works, so be sure to check our meetup page with the latest. I hope to see you at some of these events!

All the best, James Hare

Wikimedia DC invites revolutionaries, free thinkers, and other sundry editors to a DC WikiSalon
The WikiSalon is a special meetup usually held during the first and third full weeks of every month, from 7 PM to 9 PM. It's an informal gathering of Wikimedia enthusiasts, who come together to discuss Wikimedia wikis and collaboratively edit. There's no set agenda, and guests are welcome to recommend articles for the group to edit or edit on their own.

If you're coming by Metro, the closest station is Dupont Circle (on the Red Line). If you're driving, a lot of parking opens up downtown after 6:30 PM, so finding a parking space (even a free one) should be easy. Once you've found the building, go to Cove on the second floor. We will be in the conference room. When: Wednesday, September 17, 2014 at 7:00 PM to 9:00 PM

Where: The Cove, Dupont Circle, 1730 Connecticut Avenue NW, 2nd floor, 20009, DC

Talk:List of U.S. radio programs

Late Junction
should [latejunction] be in this list, it's a BBC radio 3 program?

I am adding Car Talk to the list. It is broadcast on NPR. -- BenWhitey

Expansion of List & How to Break up list if necessary
Yesterday, I expanded the list dramatically. I included all those shows which were of United States origin in the list on the Old-Time Radio page, as well as all those shows which I had to then found had had at least a ten-year network run from a book in the local library on collecting old-time radio. I have yet to finish the listings in that book and have several more "types" of shows to look over. If it should prove necessary to break up the list for length purposes, I would consider dropping those names which are already included on the Old-time radio page, but am not sure which if any of the new listings should be put there as well. I would welcome any feedback.Badbilltucker 13:12, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

Carnobacterium pleistocenium

Carnobacterium pleistocenium is a recently discovered bacterium from the arctic part of Alaska. It was found in permafrost, seemingly frozen there for 32,000 years. Melting the ice, however, brought these extremophiles back to life. This is the first case of an organism "coming back to life" from ancient ice. These bacterial cells were discovered in a tunnel dug by the Army Corps of Engineers in the 1960s to allow scientists to study the permafrost in preparation for the construction of the Trans-Alaska pipeline system.

The discovery of this bacterium is of particular interest for NASA, for it may be possible for such life to exist in the permafrost of Mars or on the surface of Europa. It is also of interest for scientists investigating the potential for cryogenically freezing life forms to reduce the transportation costs (in terms of life support systems) that would be associated with long-duration space travel.

East Georgia State College

East Georgia State College (EGSC) is a public college in Swainsboro, Georgia. It is part of the University System of Georgia. As an access institution, the college serves a predominantly rural area of 24 counties in Georgia's coastal plain from its three campus locations.

History
In the 1960s, community leaders in Swainsboro and Emanuel County petitioned the state legislature to establish a community college in the area. In 1969, the Georgia Board of Regents underwent a study to determine the need for additional community colleges in the state. A year later, the Swainsboro–Emanuel County area was approved as a prospective site for a new college with the stipulation that the city and county provide land and funding to build the campus.

In September 1971, the citizens of Emanuel County approved a $2.1 million bond issue and provided 207 acre of land within the city limits of Swainsboro for a new college. 190 acre of the site was donated by the wife of then-U.S. Senator David Gambrell, Mrs. Luck Flanders Gambrell. In December of the same year, the Board of Regents granted final approval for Emanuel County Junior College. Then-Speaker of the Georgia House of Representatives and Emanuel County native George L. Smith II was instrumental in the college's establishment. In June 1972, temporary offices were set up in downtown Swainsboro and the college's faculty was hired while construction of the college campus began in December of the same year.

The college hosted its charter class of 167 students in the fall quarter of 1973 at a temporary site, as the campus would not be ready for another year. The college changed its name to East Georgia College in 1988 when the University System mandated that the term "Junior" be removed from the names of its two-year institutions and to give the college its regional identity. In the Board of Regents' June 2011 meeting, East Georgia College was granted approval to move to four-year status, allowing the college to offer limited bachelor's degree programs. With the change in its mission, the college was officially renamed East Georgia State College. The college admitted its first students into the Bachelor's program in Biology in fall 2012.

Campus
The college campus opened in 1974 with six buildings and has been expanded significantly since the turn of the 21st century. Opened in 2001, the Luck Flanders Gambrell Center houses the Learning Commons (college library, Academic Center for Excellence, and Common Grounds Coffee shop), main auditorium, classrooms, and administrative offices. In 2003, the Physical Education building was expanded with a new indoor gymnasium, fitness center, an art studio, and additional classrooms; it now home to the EGSC Bobcats. The Jean A. Morgan (JAM) Student Center was expanded and renovated in 2007, adding student meeting space and offices for admissions, financial aid, student records, business affairs and counseling and disabilities services. The JAM Center was expanded for a second time in 2020, adding student recreation space and a larger bookstore. In 2012, the college library was substantially renovated to accommodate the college's transition from two-year status to four-year status. The main campus also features an 18-hole disc golf course, 10k cross country course, outdoor tennis and basketball courts, a nature trail, Ezra Pond and Pa's Pond. In 2016, the campus was designated as a Bee Campus, and has applied for status as a Tree Campus. In 2017, the lower level of the Academic Building was expanded, adding additional biology laboratories and an 84-seat lecture hall.

The college opened a new southern entrance road, Madison Dixon Drive, named for one of the community leaders who pushed for the college's creation, at the intersection of Lambs Bridge Road and Meadowlake Parkway in early 2008, and the Sudie A. Fulford Community Learning Center was built near the new entrance in 2010. Named for a well known grade school teacher in the Swainsboro community, the center features an educational resource center for area K-12 students and teachers, meeting space for small conferences, educational outreach programs and summer camps, as well as a great room with a vaulted ceiling and fireplace and a full-dome planetarium. The center's construction was funded by a donation from Ada Lee Correll, Fulford's daughter and the wife of Georgia-Pacific CEO-emeritus A.D. "Pete" Correll.

In November 2009, the EGSC Foundation voted unanimously to appropriate 10 acre of land near the northern part of campus to construct the college's first on-campus residence hall. Bobcat Villas opened at the start of the 2011 fall semester and was expanded in the fall of 2016 through a USG P-3 initiative. The college's on-campus housing capacity is 412 students.

Athletics
In fall 2005, the student body selected a mascot, the bobcat, to represent the college in club sports and non-athletic functions. In fall 2008, students in a college-wide referendum approved a $75 increase in student fees to support a formal intercollegiate athletics program, with the Board of Regents approving the athletics fee in their April 2009 meeting.

The college is a member of the Georgia Collegiate Athletic Association (Region XVII of the National Junior College Athletic Association) and played an abbreviated schedule in all sports in the 2009–10 academic year with full varsity-level play starting the following year. The college's initial sport offerings include men's and women's basketball, women's softball, and men's baseball. In summer 2010, the college constructed an athletics complex behind the gymnasium, adding a baseball field, softball field, new tennis courts, and related support facilities.

In only its fourth season of competition, the men's basketball team clinched the college's first ever GCAA Championship and earned a bid into the 2013 NJCAA Men's Division I Basketball Tournament in Hutchinson, Kansas.

In Fall 2021, the college's four existing sports were augmented with junior varsity squads. In January 2022, the college athletics department announced that it would add men's and women's tennis and men's and women's cross country starting in Fall 2022.

Vision Series
The EGSC Vision Series is a community outreach initiative that brings programs of cultural and intellectual enrichment to East Georgia State College and the Swainsboro-Emanuel County area. Noteworthy speakers who have visited East Georgia State College include President and Mrs. Jimmy Carter, poet Maya Angelou, former Atlanta mayor and U.N. Ambassador Andrew Young, broadcast journalist Cokie Roberts, author and television commentator Bruce Feiler, former Chief Justice of the Georgia Supreme Court Leah Ward Sears, and former Georgia Governor, United States Secretary of Agriculture and incumbent Chancellor of the University System of Georgia Sonny Perdue. Vision Series lectures and concerts hosted at the college are free and open to the public.

The Vision Series also sponsors field trips to historical sites and locations of cultural interest, such as the Fox Theatre and the Georgia Aquarium. While students typically receive seating priority, the excursions are open to the public whenever space is available.

Satellite campuses
East Georgia State College operates two satellite campuses in Statesboro and Augusta as collaborations with Georgia Southern University (GS) and Augusta University (AU), respectively. The purpose of EGSC Statesboro and EGSC Augusta is to serve students living within the local area as well as those who do not meet the freshmen admission requirements of the hosting universities; those who are not eligible to attend EGSC may be referred to either Ogeechee Technical College or Augusta Technical College when appropriate. Students enrolled at either satellite campus pay EGSC's tuition rate and fees, which also include the host institution's student services fees, allowing EGSC students to access most of the student services provided to Georgia Southern and Augusta University students, such as library, dining, health, transportation, and recreation services. EGSC students are not permitted to seek membership at fraternities and sororities or participate in varsity intercollegiate athletic programs at their hosting institution; however, Statesboro and Augusta students are permitted to participate in EGSC's own athletic teams on the main Swainsboro campus. After completing a minimum of 30 credit hours of college level coursework, as well as attaining a minimum GPA of 2.0, students can choose to transfer to their hosting institution or another university-level institution, or remain at East Georgia State College to satisfy requirements for the Associate of Arts degree.

Statesboro
EGSC Statesboro (EGSC-S) was established in 1997. From its inception until July 2011, EGSC-S used leased office space to house its administrative functions and Georgia Southern classroom space for academic functions. In March 2010, the college broke ground on a new satellite center on U.S. Highway 301 South, near the main campus of Ogeechee Tech. The new campus opened just before the start of the 2011 fall semester and houses classroom space, a student computer lab, and a commons area in addition to its administrative functions. However, many student services and some classes are still hosted on the Georgia Southern campus.

In November 2018, The George-Anne, Georgia Southern's student newspaper, reported that EGSC officials plan to relocate the Statesboro Center to the Georgia Southern campus, citing student concerns with attending classes, accessing services, and participating in extracurricular activities at two discrete locations nearly 4 mi apart. EGSC officials plan to use the Nessmith-Lane Center to house the Statesboro Center while Georgia Southern's Continuing and Professional Education (CPE) department would relocate to the EGSC Statesboro Center facility. EGSC Statesboro's relocation to the Nessmith-Lane Center took place over the 2021 winter break, and opened for students in the 2022 spring semester. Georgia Southern's renovation of the former EGSC Statesboro facility was completed in the spring of 2023; CPE director Dr. Diana Badakhsh stated that moving the CPE from the congested university campus has greatly improved patron access and program registrations.

Augusta
EGSC Augusta (EGSC-A) was established in 2013 to replace the "University College" program of the former Augusta State University following its consolidation with Georgia Health Sciences University to form Augusta University. ESGC-A is located on AU's Summerville campus. The second floor of Galloway Hall houses administrative and faculty offices, while classes are held throughout the Summerville Campus. Students residing in Aiken County and Edgefield County, South Carolina are eligible for an out-of-state tuition waiver.

Locations
