application in medical oxygen device
I'm just proposing that someone add a mention of the fact that they are also used in oxygen concentrators to remove nitrogen etc to output 95% pure oxygen. This could be added near the sentences about air filtration for firefights.

Also, it seems like there are an excessive amount of parenthesis, even in instances where a comma or new sentence would have been the better choice. 74.75.97.218 (talk) 21:19, 6 February 2020 (UTC)

 * Good point. I dont think that anyone would object to replacing the image, so I put in a suggestion.  The replacement image shows the structure of the aluminosilicate framework that comprises the so-called LTA (Linde type-A, or zeolite-A).  Not shown are the Na+ centers that attract the water.  Strangely, Wikipedia lacks an article on Zeolite A.  --Smokefoot (talk) 17:02, 3 April 2023 (UTC)

I think this page should be a redirection to Transaminase. That article says the same and more. I did the same for Transamine. For now I just put a link here to Transaminase. I don't know if I could just erase it all and rederict without notice.

I don't think this one should be eliminated: it conveys certain understanding not present in the transamination article. But could you revise the sentence "This reaction uses the coenzyme PLP, and is a fact to be a kinetically perfect reaction," specifically the clause "...is a fact to be..."? It just doesn't make sense as written. Thanks, Mweir2 (talk) 17:03, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

Lake Saiful Muluk

Saiful Muluk is a mountainous lake in northern Pakistan, located at the northern end of the Kaghan Valley, near the town of Naran in the Saiful Muluk National Park. At an elevation of 3,224 m (10,578 feet) above sea level, the lake is located above the tree line, and is one of the highest lakes in Pakistan.

Location
Saiful Muluk is located in the Mansehra district of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, about 9 km north of Naran, in the northern part of Kaghan Valley. Malika Parbat, the highest peak in the valley is near the lake.

The lake is accessible from the nearby town of Naran during the summer season but access during winter is limited, as heavy snowfall and landslides threaten to cutoff the lake from other regions.

Physical features
Saiful Muluk was formed by glacial moraines that blocked the water of the stream passing through the valley. The Kaghan Valley was formed in the greater Pleistocene Period dating back almost 300,000 years when the area was covered with ice. Rising temperatures and receding glaciers left a large depression where glaciers once stood. Melting water collected into the lake.

Ecology
The lake has rich eco-diversity and holds many species of blue-green algae. Large brown trout are found in the lake, up to about seven kilograms. About 26 species of vascular plant exist in the area, with Asteraceae the most commonly found species. Other species commonly found in the region are: Ranunculaceae, Compositae, Cruciferae, Gramineae, Apiaceae, Leguminosae, Scrophulariaceae and Polygonaceae.

Folklore
The Lake Saiful Muluk is named after a legendary prince. A fairy tale called Saiful Muluk, later on turnt into poem form by the Sufi poet Mian Muhammad Bakhsh. It tells the story of the Egyptian Prince Saiful Malook who fell in love with a fairy princess named Princess Badri-ul-Jamala at the lake.

Hovenden Walker

Rear-Admiral Sir Hovenden Walker (1656 or 1666 – 1725 or 1728) was a British naval officer noted for, during Queen Anne's War, having led an abortive 1711 expedition against Quebec City, then the capital of New France.

Early career
Walker entered Trinity College Dublin in 1678 but did not take a degree and subsequently joined the Royal Navy. He probably visited North America in 1686, reaching Boston aboard the frigate HMS Dartmouth.

Walker was promoted to captain about 1692 and saw action near the Lizard while in command of the fourth-rate HMS Foresight in around 1696. In 1701 he joined the fleet under Sir George Rooke at Cadiz, and shortly afterwards, as commodore, took command of a detachment charged with cooperating in an attack on Guadeloupe and Martinique, which was unsuccessful. This failure did not damage his career, though; in 1706 he assisted in the relief of Barcelona, and two years later was appointed to command the squadron before Dunkirk. In March 1711 he was promoted to rear-admiral and was also given a knighthood.

Expedition to Canada
On 3 April 1711, the new rear-admiral of the white squadron was made commander-in-chief of a secret naval expedition aimed at the conquest of New France. His expedition was to attack Quebec in combination with a land expedition led by Colonel Francis Nicholson.

On 30 July, the expedition consisting of nine ships of war, two bomb vessels and 60 transports and tenders, British and colonial, with some 7,500 troops and marines aboard set sail from Boston. On the morning of 18 August, just as the expedition was about to enter the Saint Lawrence River, the wind began to blow hard from the northwest, and Walker was forced to seek shelter in Gaspé Bay. On the morning of the 20th, the wind veered to the southeast, and he was able to advance slowly past the western extremity of Anticosti Island before it died down and thick fog blanketed both shore and fleet. By the 22nd, the wind had freshened from the southeast, and there were intermittent breaks in the fog, but not sufficient to give sight of land. After consulting his pilots, Walker gave the signal to head the fleet southward.

Walker had thought he was in mid-stream when he issued the order. In fact, he was about seven leagues north of his proper course, and in the grasp of strong currents which steered his ships towards the northwest. Aided by an easterly wind, the fleet was gradually closing on the "North Shore," which in the vicinity of Île-aux-Oeufs (Egg Island) runs almost north and south. When a captain reported that land had been sighted, presumably dead ahead, Walker assumed that he was approaching the south shore, and ordered the fleet to wear, and bring-to on the other tack. Not many minutes later he was again summoned from his bed, and hurrying upon deck in dressing gown and slippers saw breakers "all round us." By that time the whole fleet was heading for the "North Shore," or more accurately, the coast to the westward; ships in the van were already plunging on the edge of the breakers.

Once recovered from the shock, Walker made all available sail, and stood from the shore towards mid-channel. Up to this time a gale had been blowing almost directly on shore, and had it continued it is doubtful if many of the fleet could have survived. However, in the early morning of the next day, the wind dropped, and this lull was followed by a shift of wind which enabled most of the ships to slip their anchors and escape the shoals on either quarter. Altogether, seven transports and one storeship were lost. Out of a total of 1,390 on the 8 lost ships, 740 soldiers (including 35 women attached to the regiments) and probably 150 sailors were either drowned or died from exposure on shore. Walker cruised in the neighbourhood of Île-aux-Oeufs for two days in an effort to save what men and stores he could. Then, following a council of war, he decided to abandon the assault on Quebec.

Later life
Walker returned to London in October 1711, where he was not censured for his conduct in the expedition. In 1712 he was appointed commodore of the Jamaica Station. He returned a year later to England. Walker's journal, recounting the events of 1711, was published in 1720 and was edited by Gerald S. Graham and re-published jointly by the Champlain Society and the Navy Records Society in 1953.

Snow Lake, Manitoba

Snow Lake is a town in Manitoba, Canada, located 685 km north of Winnipeg at the end of Provincial Road 392. The main industry is, and always has been, mining; currently with one mine producing Zinc, and another lithium. The official Town of Snow Lake is a very large, overwhelmingly rural area that is centered about the urban community of Snow Lake, which lies very near its geographical center. The Town is as large in area as a typical rural municipality in the more southern parts of Manitoba.

Possibly named for a local family (Rudnyckyj) or because early settlers "found the water in the lake as soft as the melted snow" (Files, Manitoba Department of Natural Resources).

Mining
Mining always has been Snow Lake's major industry. Two separate mining ventures have operated in the community over the past 40 years. TVX/Kinross/High River operated the New Britannia Mine, which closed in January 2005, and HudBay Minerals, which operated 12 area mines. They were/are Lalor Mine, Chisel Lake, Stall Lake, Osborne Lake, Dickstone, Anderson Lake, Ghost Lake, Lost Lake, Spruce Point, Rod Mine, Photo Lake, and Chisel North.

Following a rise in demand, lithium has begun to attract mining companies to the area. Nasdaq listed Snow Lake Lithium ($LITM) are currently (at Jan 2022) preparing to start commercial lithium mining.

Tourism
Nature lovers will delight in the numerous species of birds, animals and vegetation found along the region's many area hiking trails. Picking strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, or gooseberries is also a favourite summer pastime. History enthusiasts can explore ancient Aboriginal pictographs that are approximately 1500 years old.

Fishing and boating are popular activities with the presence of many lakes and rivers, such as Snow Lake, Wekusko Lake and the Grass River that have abundances of northern pike, walleye, and perch. The Grass River Route will provide outdoor enthusiasts with an insight into the life of the early voyageurs and fur traders.

In the winter months, local hiking paths double as cross-country ski trails, while miles of frozen lakes and rivers in the area provide endless trails for snowmobilers. Ice fishing is popular as well.

The town of Snow Lake also is home to a hockey arena, curling rink, 9-hole golf course and several other recreational facilities which play host to a number of activities and tournaments over the course of the year.

On September 22, 2014, MTS launched 4G HSPA telephone service in the community and surrounding area.

Demographics
In the 2021 Census of Population conducted by Statistics Canada, Snow Lake had a population of 1,088 living in 473 of its 604 total private dwellings, a change of NaN% from its 2016 population of 899. With a land area of 1166.64 km2, it had a population density of in 2021.

Education
Joseph H. Kerr School, the lone educational facility in Snow Lake, is a Kindergarten to Senior Four facility with an enrollment of 145 students for the 2008 - 2009 school year. It is now part of the Frontier School Division. Prior to a Provincial amalgamation (2003) of school districts, it operated under its own district, the School District of Snow Lake # 2309. The building, under one form or another, has been open for close to 50 years. In 2001, Joseph H. Kerr was named one of the 30 most innovative schools by Canada's Schoolnet.

Radio

 * NCI - 96.3
 * CBC - 95.5

Television
CBWKT connected to the province-wide microwave system on March 1, 1969.

 * Shaw Cable Television;
 * CBWKT channel 8 (CBC);
 * CKYS-TV channel 11 (CTV).

can't rename files
All those features but it can't rename files... Ojw 15:48, 16 July 2005 (UTC)

iPhoto name was brought from Ulead's iPhoto Express and iPhoto Plus
http://store.kopykake.com/cgi-bin/oldstore/KJSPE.html

I've been doing some research and it turns out that the iPhoto name was brought from Ulead. Anyone care to put up the history about this. Uleads iPhoto is now the ever popular Photo Impact after the Apple buyout. --Shrimpcrackers 08:23, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

Macs are easy, silly
Sure it can. It can rename the file name itself ("dumbname_001.jpg"), or you can give it a title that will be used within iPhoto. To rename the file itself, just click the image, click the "info" button in the bottom left, and make the necessary adjustment. Of course, the file name is largely irrelevant in iPhoto. Title, keyword, date, and other meta-data is more useful for searching, sorting, etc. Just don't dig through the ~/Library/Pictures/iPhoto folder and try to find and edit the file name manually. That would be hard to do, because of how iPhoto internally organizes the photo library. Nothing on a Mac is hard to do, so it is clearly the wrong way to do things. If you ever find something hard on a Mac, take a step back and try a different approach or use the built-in help menu -- you'll often find an easier way.

For example, to import a photo from a website, you could control-click the photo and select "Save to desktop", close Safari, click on Go in the Finder menu bar, select Applications, double-click on iPhoto, click on File, click on Import, navigate to the deskop, select the photo, click open.

Or, you could click and drag the photo to the iPhoto icon in the dock.

It's up to you, really.

--Kwnd 17:41, 16 July 2005 (UTC)

OK, so it's the third icon in the status-bar, with the "i" symbol. Press it, and the filename list separates into a filename list and a picture-information list, which contains the filename, which is editable if you click on it.

I'll ignore that this is completely different to every other application on earth, and thank you for the tip. Thankyou. Ojw 20:45, 16 July 2005 (UTC)

You're welcome. :) Happy iPhotoing! --Kwnd 21:28, 16 July 2005 (UTC)

Re-written
I did a bit of a re-write. Hope everyone likes it. Basically, I just wanted to clean things up. Kudos to previous contributors; I didn't have to add much at all. I did add a few links, but mostly just reorganized things a bit. --Kwnd 22:00, 16 July 2005 (UTC)

No iPhoto 3?
Did Apple skip a version number, or is this an omission on the page?

 * Ummm, I have iPhoto 3. It was bundled with many Macs, but never was downloadable or shipped as part of iLife. T3h 09:27, 7 January 2006 (UTC)

 * Removed the mention of iPhoto 3. If iPhoto 3 really existed, would you mind providing us with a source?  AlistairMcMillan 21:41, 4 February 2006 (UTC)

 * Yeah, Ulead iPhoto Express 3. Remember Apple brought the name from Ulead.--Shrimpcrackers 08:23, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

 * They jumped from 2 to 4 to keep the version numbers among all the iLife apps the same (presumably). This isn't true for Garageband, and later iWeb, so perhaps it's to distinguish the original apps from the later ones. Who knows, it's part of the Mac mystique ;) Kewpid 02:50, 11 June 2006 (UTC)

 * According to the MacRumors iPhoto guide, that is exactly what happened. There never was an iPhoto 3. http://guides.macrumors.com/iPhoto . Additionally, MacTidbits concurs that iPhoto 3 was never released outside Apple, but they mention the fact that there was a Help document included in iPhoto 4 entitled "What's New in iPhoto3" http://db.tidbits.com/article/07556  Curtis 00:42, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

Slowness of large libraries
I reverted out the iPhoto is slow with large libraries, this refers to iPhoto 2, many of the slowness criticism does not apply to iPhoto 4-6. If this is rephrased it could stay. --vossman 05:45, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

 * iPhoto 6, with 3000 photos, takes 5 minutes to start up on G4 laptop. In my experience, it still applies.--Dbolton 01:25, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

 * Well, my 800MHz iBook G4 with iPhoto 6 takes only 25 seconds to load 2000 images (time from click in Dock to editing an image). You might want to rebuild your database. My point is that version <= 2, have xml tables to lookup information, while versions >= 4 have databases to streamline this. This was the advertizing campaign for upgrading... "Now supports large libraries" --vossman 17:19, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

 * This factor depends on image size, resolution, and type (TIFF or JPEG, etc). The larger images are, the longer they'll take to load up. Rebuilding the thumbnail cache improves the performance of iPhoto. Repairing disk permissions also helps. Problem is, everyone gets a different experience from it because everyone's camera saves images in different formats, resolutions and sizes, directly affecting iPhoto's performance. — Wackymacs 17:39, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

 * I am not trying to start a flame war. But the size of the files shouldn't affect startup time, because it is all based on the thumbnail cache correct?
 * Either way this slow fact comes from original research which is not allowed and it was linked to a person's blog. --vossman 18:35, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

iLife 09
iLife 09 has not shipped yet. Although we can make a reasonable guess the final version will be 8.0, we do not have that in evidence. We also do not have a final build date. At a minimum, if these are going to be in the article we need references. I have been referred to the MOS on this, but I don't see where it says we should describe products not shipping as already released without references. --Steven Fisher (talk) 17:18, 15 January 2009 (UTC)

Should this include criticism of the 'Faces' feature?
Hello. Since Apple's 'Get a Mac' ads have been focused on iPhoto (more specifically, Faces) lately, I thought that people may come looking for more information. I've noticed that people have quite a bit (good and bad) to say about the new Faces feature. For example, macworld (granted, perhaps not the most unbiased source in the world), had good things to say about the ability to recognize even blurry faces, and pictures taken of a child in different stages of her life, but also bad things about its tendency to identify "flowers, bottles, and other inanimate objects" as people, as well as making mistakes that even cross gender. Is it worth mentioning any of this? The good and the bad? 209.90.134.252 (talk) 20:35, 17 May 2009 (UTC)

Ummm
Why does the first paragraph say that iPhoto was first released in 2002? In the Version History section, it says that iPhoto 1 was released in 2001. Harmelion (talk) 12:51, 5 November 2009 (UTC)

Albanian Orthodox Church

The  Autocephalous Orthodox Church of Albania (Kisha Ortodokse Autoqefale e Shqipërisë), commonly known as the Albanian Orthodox Church or the Orthodox Church of Albania, is an autocephalous Eastern Orthodox church. It declared its autocephaly in 1922 through its Congress of 1922, and gained recognition from the Patriarch of Constantinople in 1937.

The church suffered during the Second World War, and in the communist period that followed, especially after 1967 when Albania was declared an atheist state, and no public or private expression of religion was allowed.

The church has, however, seen a revival since religious freedom was restored in 1991, with more than 250 churches restored or rebuilt, and more than 100 clergy being ordained. It has 909 parishes spread all around Albania, and around 500,000 to 550,000 faithful. The number is claimed to be as high as 700,000 by some Orthodox sources – and higher when considering the Albanian diaspora.

History
The Christian religious vocabulary of Albanian is mostly Latin, including even the basic terms such "to bless", "altar," and "to receive communion". It indicates that Albanians were Christianized under the Latin-based liturgy and ecclesiastical order which would be known as "Roman Catholic" in later centuries. Ecclesiastically, Christians in Albania, as part of the province of Illyricum, were under the jurisdiction of the Bishop of Rome (1st-8th century). From 732 to 733 AD the ecclesiastical jurisdiction of Illyricum was transferred to the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople. The Great Schism of 1054 formalized the split of Christianity into two branches, Catholicism and Orthodoxy, which was reflected in Albania through the emergence of a Catholic north and Orthodox south.

Orthodox Church during the Ottoman Period
The official recognition of the Eastern Orthodox Church by the Porte resulted in the Orthodox population being tolerated until the late 18th century. The Orthodox population of Albania was integrated into the Patriarchate of Constantinople, with the population of central and south-eastern Albania being under the ecclesiastical jurisdiction of the Orthodox Archbishopric of Ohrid, and the population of south-western Albania being under the ecclesiastical jurisdiction of the Metropolis of Ioannina.

During the late eighteenth century, the poverty of the Orthodox Church, the illiterate clergy, a lack of clergy in some areas, liturgy in a language other than Albanian and the reliance of the bishoprics of Durrës and southern Albania upon the declining Archbishopric of Ohrid, due in part to simony, weakened the faith among the church's adherents and reduced the ability for Orthodox Albanians to resist conversion to Islam.

By the mid-19th century, due to the Tanzimat reforms which imposed mandatory military service on non-Muslims, the Orthodox Church lost adherents as the majority of Albanians became Muslim.

Movement for establishing an autocephalous Albanian Orthodox Church
In the 19th century, Orthodox Albanians under the Patriarchate of Constantinople had liturgy and schooling in Greek, which was also the lingua franca in the South, and in the late Ottoman period their political thinking was divided: although most Orthodox Christians wished for the end of Ottoman rule, some of them - especially the upper class - desired to be part of a Greek state, some sought Greek-Albanian cooperation and a Greek-Albanian federation state or dual monarchy, and some who sought Albanian statehood. For Orthodox Albanians, Albanianism was closely associated with Hellenism, linked through the faith of Orthodoxy, however during the Eastern crisis this premise was rejected by some Albanian Orthodox because of the growing competition between the Albanian and Greek national movements over parts of Epirus. These issues also generated a reaction against Greek nationalists that drove the Albanian desire to stress a separate cultural identity.

The religious division among Albanians meant that Albanian nationalism could not be based on religion and instead Albanian nationalism as it developed tended to promote interreligious cooperation, from the point of its inception in the writings of Naum Veqilharxhi. Although the Orthodox were a minority among Albanians, the Albanian nationalist movement began among the Orthodox, and subsequently spread to other religious communities among Albanians. Orthodox Albanians especially in the diaspora and from Korçë and its nearby regions began to affiliate with the movement by working together with Muslim Albanians regarding shared socio-geopolitical Albanian interests and aims, causing concerns for Greece  because it threatened the aspirations to incorporate Epirus into Greece, and because those Greeks who sought an Albanian-Greek confederation took a negative view of other foreign influences among Albanians. Although Greek schools were for a while the only way Orthodox children could become educated and at Greek schools children where they were exposed to Greek nationalism, Orthodox Albanians would instead come to play an active and often leading role in the Albanian national independence movement, often at great cost to themselves and their families.

At the onset of the twentieth century, the idea to create an Albanian Orthodoxy or an Albanian expression of Orthodoxy emerged in the diaspora at a time when the Orthodox were increasingly being assimilated by the Patriarchate and Greece through the sphere of politics. As Orthodoxy was associated with the Greek identity, the rise of the movement caused confusion for Orthodox Albanians as it interrupted the formation of a Greek national consciousness. The Orthodox Albanian community had individuals such as Jani Vreto, Spiro Dine and Fan Noli involved in the national movement, of which some advocated for an Albanian Orthodoxy in order to curtail the Hellenisation process occurring amongst Orthodox Albanians. In 1905, priest Kristo Negovani introduced Albanian liturgy for Orthodox worship in his native Negovan for the first time,  for which he was murdered by Greek andartes on behalf from Bishop Karavangelis of Kastoria, leading to the retaliatory murder of the Metropolitan of Korçë, Photios, who opposed the Albanian national movement. In 1907, Orthodox Albanian immigrant Kristaq Dishnica was refused funeral services in the United States by a local Orthodox Greek priest for being an Albanian involved in nationalist activities. Known as the Hudson incident, it galvanised the emigre Orthodox Albanian community to form the Albanian Orthodox Church under Fan Noli who hoped to counter Greek irredentism.

On March 18, 1908, as a result of the Hudson incident, Fan Noli was ordained as a priest by Russian bishop Platon in the United States. Noli conducted the Orthodox liturgy (March 1908) for the first time among the Albanian-American community in Albanian. Noli also devoted his efforts toward translating the liturgy into Albanian and emerging as a leader of the Orthodox Albanian community in the US. In 1911 he visited the Orthodox Albanian diasporas in Romania, Ukraine and Bulgaria.

Autocephaly and statutes
After Albanian independence in 1912, Fan Noli, who in 1924 would become an important political figure and prime minister of the nation, traveled to Albania, where he played an important role in establishing the Orthodox Albanian Church. On September 17, 1922, the first Orthodox Congress convened at Berat formally laid the foundations of an Albanian Orthodox Church and declared its autocephaly. Fan Noli was consecrated as Bishop of Korçë and primate of Albania, while the establishment of the Church was seen as an important development for maintaining Albanian national unity. At the end of the congress the first statute of the church was approved.

The church had a second statute that amended the First Statute in a second congress gathered in Korçë on June 29, 1929. Also on September 6, 1929, the first Regulation of General Administration of the Church was approved. The Patriarchate in Constantinople recognised the independence or autocephaly of the Orthodox Albanian Church in 1937.

On November 26, 1950, the Parliament of Albania approved the Third Statute that abrogated the 1929 Statute. Such new statute required Albanian citizenship for the primate of the church in (article 4). With the exception of the amendments made in 1993, this statute is still in force for the church.

On January 22 - June 1 - July 22, 1993, the 1950 statute was amended and in 1996 was approved by the then-president, Sali Berisha. In particular, article 4 of the 1950 statute, which required Albanian citizenship for primate of the church, was no longer so.

On November 3 and 4, 2006, at the new Monastery of St. Vlash in Durrës, there was a special Clergy-Laity Assembly of the Orthodox Autocephalous Church of Albania, attended by 257 representatives (including all clergy members). At this Assembly the New Constitution (Statute) of the Church was analyzed and accept unanimously. On November 6, 2006, the Holy Synod approved this Constitution (Statute). On November 24, 2008, the Orthodox Autocephalous Church of Albania and the Council of Ministers signed an agreement according to the 1998 Albanian Constitution, for the arrangement of their reciprocal relationship. The agreement was ratified by the Albanian Parliament, and became law (nr.10057) on January 22, 2009.

Archbishops
The Primate of the Orthodox Autocephalous Church of Albania is also the Archbishop of Tirana and Durrës. The current archbishop of Tirana is Archbishop Anastasios of Albania.

Persecution
The church greatly suffered during the dictatorship of Enver Hoxha as all churches were placed under government control, and land originally held by religious institutions were taken by the state. Religion in schools was banned. Similarly, Hoxha propagated that Albania was threatened by religion in general, since it served as the supposed "Trojan Horse" of the interests of the country's traditional enemies; in particular Orthodoxy (those of Greece and Serbia). In 1952 Archbishop Kristofor was discovered dead; most believed he had been killed.

In 1967 Hoxha closed down all religious buildings in the country, and declared Albania the world's first atheist country. All expression of religion, public or private, was outlawed. Hundreds of clergy were killed or imprisoned. As a result of this policy, a total of 600 Orthodox churches were demolished (1,600 present in 1944). Other buildings of the Orthodox community forcibly seized their religious function.

Revival of the church
At the end of the communist rule, when religious freedom was restored, only 22 Orthodox priests remained alive. To deal with this situation, the Ecumenical Patriarch appointed Anastasios to be the Patriarchal Exarch for the Albanian Church. As Bishop of Androusa, Anastasios was dividing his time between his teaching duties at the University of Athens and the Archbishopric of Irinoupolis in Kenya, which was then going through a difficult patch, before his appointment. He was elected on June 24, 1992, and enthroned on August 2, 1992. Over time Anastasios has gained respect for his charity work and is now recognized as a spiritual leader of the Orthodox Church in Albania.

Orthodox parishes with active liturgical lives have been established in a majority of cities and villages. Liturgical, preaching, and catechism ministries have been expanded, increasing the participation of both clergy and laity. Several groups have been organized to assist the church with its ministries: the Orthodox Women, and Orthodox Intellectuals. The moral and spiritual strength offered through the cultivation of a sound religious life is contributing decisively to the general progress of the Albanian society.

Most parishes use the Albanian language in liturgy, while Greek is also partly used. In Greek minority areas the liturgy is accordingly celebrated in Greek.

New clergy and ecclesiastical and theological education
The church has prepared a new generation of clergy. Anastasios started a seminary in 1992, initially in a disused hotel, which was relocated to its own buildings at Shën Vlash in 1996, 15 kilometres from the port of Durrës. As of February 2011, there were 145 clergy members, all of which were Albanian citizens who graduated from the Resurrection of Christ Theological Academy. This academy is also preparing new members (men and women) for catechism and for other services in different church activities.

Meanwhile, students are continuing their theological educations in well-known theological universities abroad.

Two ecclesiastical high schools for boys were opened – the "Holy Cross" in Gjirokastër in 1998, and the "Holy Cross" in Sukth of Durrës in 2007.

New and reconstructed churches
So far, 150 new churches have been built, 60 monasteries and more than 160 churches have been repaired. Many buildings have been built, and others have been bought and reconstructed for various purposes (such buildings, numbering 70, include: preschools, schools, youth centers, health centers, metropolitan sees, hospitality homes, workshops, soup kitchens, etc.). In total there have been roughly 450 building projects. Through its construction projects and provision of jobs, the Orthodox Church is contributing to the economic development of the nation and is one of the most serious investors in the country, offering work for many local builders and dozens of workers. Since 1995, the church has put on an architecture course from time to time, each year giving more than 40 young people instruction in various aspects of ecclesiastical construction and architecture.

Media and publishing
The Orthodox Church of Albania has its own radio station, named "Ngjallja" (Resurrection) which 24 hours a day broadcasts spiritual, musical, informative and educational programmes and lectures, and has a special children's programme.

A monthly newspaper with the same name, Ngjallja, is published, as well as a children's magazine Gëzohu ("Rejoice"), the magazine of the Orthodox Youth Kambanat ("Bells"), the student bulletin Fjala ("Word"), the news bulletin News from Orthodoxy in Albania (published in English), Tempulli ("Temple") and Kërkim ("Searching/Research"), which contain cultural, social and spiritual materials, Enoria Jonë ("Our Parish").

As of February 2008, more than 100 books with liturgical, spiritual, intellectual and academic topics have been published.

Social activities
The Orthodox Church in Albania has taken various social initiatives. It started with health care, organising "The Annunciation" Orthodox Diagnostic Center in Tirana in 1999, with some of Albania's most renowned doctors and administers health care and most contemporary health services in 23 different specialties; four medical clinics, and one mobile dental clinic. The office "Service of Love" (Diakonia Agapes) contributes to the increasing of midwives' and nurses' roles, offering training projects and assistance.

The Orthodox Autocephalous Church of Albania made extensive humanitarian contributions during the political and social crises (1992, 1994, 1997), collecting and distributing thousands of tons of food, clothing and medicine. In addition, it supported a wide range of social programs including: development projects in mountainous regions, especially in the areas of agriculture and farming; road construction; amelioration of water supplies; educational programs on health for children; construction of rural health centers and contributions for schools, orphanages, hospitals, institutes for the disabled, elderly homes, prisons (i.e. financed by the church, where would prisoners work and receive income accordingly), sports grounds, soup kitchens for the poor, and many more.

During 1999, when Albania accepted waves of refugees from Kosovo, the Orthodox Autocephalous Church of Albania, in collaboration with donors and other international religious organizations (especially ACT and WCC), led an extensive humanitarian program of more than $12 million, hosting 33,000 Kosovars in its two camps, supplying them with food, clothes, medical care and other goods.

Apart from the two ecclesiastical high schools, it has established three elementary schools (1st – 9th grade), 17 day-care centers and two institutes for professional training (named "Spirit of Love", established in Tirana in 2000) which are said to be the first of their kind in Albania and provide education in the fields of Team Management, IT Accounting, Computer Science, Medical Laboratory, Restoration and Conservation of Artwork and Byzantine Iconography. In Gjirokastër, 1 professional school, the orphanage "The Orthodox Home of Hope", a high school dormitory for girls, has also given technical and material support to many public schools.

An environmental programme was started in 2001.

An Office of Cultural Heritage was established to look after the Orthodox structures considered to be national cultural monuments. A number of choirs have been organized in the churches. A Byzantine choir has also been formed and has produced cassettes and CDs. A workshop for the restoration and painting of icons was established with the aim to train a new generation of artists, to revive the rich tradition of iconography. The Church has also sponsored important academic publications, documentary films, academic symposiums and various exhibits of iconography, codex, children's projects and other culturally related themes.

The Orthodox Autocephalous Church of Albania actively participates as equals in the events of the Orthodox Church worldwide. It is a member of the Conference of the European Churches (of which the Archbishop Anastasios has served as vice-president since December 2003), the World Council of the Churches (of which Archbishop Anastasios was chosen as one of eight presidents in 2006), and the largest inter-faith organization in the world, "Religions for Peace" (of which Anastasios was chosen as Honorary President in 2006). It is also active in various ecumenical conferences and programs. The Orthodox Autocephalous Church of Albania contributes to the efforts for peaceful collaboration and solidarity in the region and beyond.

Administration and Holy Synod
The Holy Synod of Bishops was established in 1997, and is currently composed of:

 * Archbishopric of Tirana-Durrës: Archbishop Anastasios of Albania (1992-), head of the Holy Synod
 * Metropolis of Berat, Kaninë and Vlorë: Ignati of Berat (1997-)
 * Metropolis of Korçë: Joan Pelushi (1999-)

Wild Honey Pie

"Wild Honey Pie" is a song by the English rock band the Beatles from their 1968 double album The Beatles (also known as the "White Album"). It was written by Paul McCartney and credited to Lennon–McCartney. Less than a minute in length, the song mainly consists of the title being chanted repeatedly and was performed by McCartney without the participation of the other Beatles. The track is often viewed as a filler track and is generally regarded as inconsequential and unmemorable due to its experimental nature.

Recording
"Wild Honey Pie" was recorded on 20 August 1968 at the end of the recording session for "Mother Nature's Son". Like "Mother Nature's Son", McCartney is the sole member of the Beatles heard on the recording. At the time, John Lennon and Ringo Starr were working on other White Album songs, and George Harrison was on holiday in Greece. McCartney also recorded the unreleased song "Etcetera" during this session.

McCartney said of this song: "We were in an experimental mode, and so I said, 'Can I just make something up?' I started off with the guitar and did a multitracking experiment in the control room or maybe in the little room next door. It was very home-made; it wasn't a big production at all. I just made up this short piece and I multitracked a harmony to that, and a harmony to that, and a harmony to that, and built it up sculpturally with a lot of vibrato on the [guitar] strings, really pulling the strings madly. Hence, 'Wild Honey Pie', which was a reference to the other song I had written called 'Honey Pie'."

Release and reception
"Wild Honey Pie" was sequenced between "Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da" and "The Continuing Story of Bungalow Bill", on side one of "the White Album". According to McCartney, the song might have been excluded but Harrison's wife, Pattie Boyd, "liked it very much so we decided to leave it on the album".

In his book on the White Album, David Quantick describes "Wild Honey Pie" as a "genuinely inferior" piece that, after Lennon's avant-garde "Revolution 9", is among the tracks that are most commonly omitted from listeners' single-album versions of the Beatles' 1968 double LP. Author Mark Hertsgaard, referring to Lennon's distaste for "Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da", writes: "But at least 'Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da' had a real melody. 'Wild Honey Pie,' which followed it, simply assaulted the ear; it sounded like someone had taken a hammer to a giant pocket watch until the springs inside collapsed in heavy, discordant agony." Herstgaard says it was "perhaps the most extreme case of self-indulgence on the album". In his contemporary review of the album, Jann Wenner of Rolling Stone wrote a one-sentence summary of "Wild Honey Pie": "[The song] makes a nice tribute to psychedelic music and allied forms."

In 2003, Stylus Magazine ranked "Wild Honey Pie" at number 1 on its list of the "Top Ten Filler Tracks" and described the song as "the greatest piece of filler to ever clutter an over-ambitious double album". They praised the "painfully discordant guitar" and felt the song to be "[o]ne of the most famous half-songs in history." A "Playing God" piece by the same magazine from the following year, in which the author creates a personalised version of the track listing, included the song as the album's opening track, saying "instead of [an] acclimation track like 'Back in the USSR', sound-wise at least, this version of The White Album utilizes the sproing guitar and yarbled vocals of 'Wild Honey Pie' as its opening salvo. It's meant here to let the listener know that this is going to be like no Beatles album they've ever heard." Coinciding with the 50th anniversary of the White Album's release, Jacob Stolworthy of The Independent listed "Wild Honey Pie" in last place in his ranking of the album's 30 tracks, and commented: "Thankfully one of The Beatles' shortest songs."

Personnel
According to author Ian MacDonald:

 * Paul McCartney – lead and backing vocals, acoustic guitars, bass drum, other percussion

Geoff Rabone

Geoffrey Osborne Rabone (6 November 1921 – 19 January 2006), known as Geoff Rabone, was a cricketer who captained New Zealand in five Test matches in 1953–54 and 1954–55. He represented New Zealand in 12 Test matches between 1949 and the 1954–55 seasons and he was the South African Cricketer of the Year in 1954.

Cricket career
Geoff Rabone played for Wellington from 1940–41 to 1950–51 and for Auckland from 1951–52 to 1959–60 as a dour right-handed batsman and as a right-arm off-break bowler who bowled the occasional leg-break too.

After Second World War service as a Lancaster bomber pilot, Rabone had played only six first-class matches before being selected for 1949 New Zealand touring side to England. In a team of strokemakers headed by Martin Donnelly and Bert Sutcliffe, Rabone's normal batting style gave solidity to New Zealand's middle order. He played in all four Tests of the summer, making 148 runs but with a highest score of just 39.

His maiden century made an unbeaten 120 against Nottinghamshire, opening the innings and batting for 340 minutes in a total of 329 for four declared. On the tour as a whole, he made 1,021 runs at an average of 32.93. His bowling proved expensive in English conditions, and he took 50 wickets, but at an average of 35.70. In the Tests, he took only four wickets.

In his next Test series, when the West Indies visited New Zealand in 1951–52, Rabone continued to be used primarily as a defensive batsman, taking 178 minutes to acore 37 as an opener, and then 83 minutes to score just nine in the middle order. And the following year, playing just one match when South Africa toured New Zealand, he took 215 minutes to score 29.

In 1953–54, New Zealand made its first Test-playing tour to a country other than England, a five-Test series in South Africa. Rabone was picked as captain, and though the side was unsuccessful in the big matches – the Test series was lost 4–0 – his own reputation for dependability and durability was enhanced. In the first Test, he made 107 out of a total of 230 in more than six hours, and followed that with 68 out of 149 in the second innings. In all, he batted for 585 out of the 675 minutes that his side's two innings lasted. That match was lost by an innings; the second, in which Rabone had little success, was lost by 132 runs.

But the third game, which ended as a draw, saw New Zealand's then-highest Test score, 505, and the first time the team had managed to enforce the follow-on. Rabone scored 56 and then took six for 68 as South Africa were bowled out for 326, his best Test bowling. The tour ended in an anticlimax for Rabone, though, as he broke a bone in a foot during a provincial match and could not take part in the last two Tests.

Rabone was restored to the New Zealand captaincy the following year for the 1954–55 MCC tour of New Zealand. The results in the two Tests were poor and there was criticism of his captaincy, but Rabone's own adhesive qualities seemed undiminished. In the first innings of the first match, he was one of only two players – the other was Sutcliffe – to reach double figures, taking three hours to score 18. And in the second, when New Zealand were dismissed for the record Test low of 26, he was again second highest scorer and longest survivor, with 7 in 53 minutes. Both matches, though, were lost by a distance.

That was the end of his Test cricket, though he played for Auckland for a few more seasons. In retirement, he was a New Zealand selector.

Blow fill seal

Blow-Fill-Seal, also spelled as Blow/Fill/Seal, in this article abbreviated as BFS, is an automated manufacturing process by which plastic containers, such as bottles or ampoules are, in a continuous operation, blow-formed, filled, and sealed. It takes place in a sterile, enclosed area inside a machine, without human intervention, and thus can be used to aseptically manufacture sterile pharmaceutical or non-pharmaceutical liquid/semiliquid unit-dosage forms. BFS is an advanced aseptic processing technology that is typically used for filling and packaging of certain sterile liquid formulations like liquid ophthalmics, inhalational anesthetics, or lavaging agents, but can also be used for injectables, parenteral medicines, and several other liquid or semiliquid medications, with fill volumes ranging from 0.1...1000 cm³. Compared against traditional glass ampoules, BFS ampoules are inexpensive, lightweight, and shatterproof.

History
BFS was developed in the early 1960s at Rommelag. In 1963, Gerhard Hansen applied for a patent on the BFS process. Originally, it was used for packaging of non-sterile products, such as non-sterile medical devices, food, and cosmetics. In the early 1970s, Rommelag's Bottelpack system was first used for packing large volume pharmaceutical solutions. By the late 1980s, BFS had been well-established in the packaging industry, especially for packaging pharmaceutical and healthcare products. During the 1980s and 1990s, BFS came into use for the now common small volume unit-dosage forms. Since the early 2000s, BFS has been emerging as the preferred packaging process for parenteral products.

BFS process
The BFS process functions similarly to conventional extrusion blow molding, and takes place within a BFS machine. First, a plastic polymer resin is heated to >160 °C and compressed to 35 MPa, allowing it to be extruded in tubular form, and be taken over by an open two-part mold to form the container. Then, the mold closes which welds the bottom of the container. Simultaneously, the parison above the mold is cut, or the filling needles are placed in the parison head without the parison being cut (rotary BFS type). Next, a filling mandrel with blowing air function is placed in the neck area that seals the container. Sterile compressed air is then introduced through the filling mandrel to inflate and form the container. In the BFS process for smaller ampoules the compressed air system is avoided by using vacuum forming the container instead. After the BFS container has been formed, the desired liquid is filled into the container through the filling mandrel unit. Then, the filling mandrel unit is lifted off, and the head mold hermetically seals the container. Simultaneously, the head contour is formed by vacuum. In the last step, the mold opens and the finished container leaves the mold.

One process cycle takes a few seconds. The process speed and thus process output largely depends upon the BFS container size and the BFS machinery dimensioning. For instance, in the early 2000s, Rommelag's 3012, 305, and 4010 M machines had outputs of approximately 4000, 8000, or 20,000 containers per hour. These machines have been succeeded by the Rommelag 312, 321, 360, 364 and 460 machines with output ranges of up to 35,000 containers per hour.

Sterility requirements
The BFS processes is an aseptic filling process, which produces sterile products and thus needs to be sterile. Aseptic BFS machines must be designed in a way that prevents extraneous contamination. Thus, rotary-type BFS machines are placed in classified areas same as shuttle-type BFS machines (open parison), which have a cleanroom shroud grade-A-compliant provided with sterilised air and kept under overpressure. Automatic SIP programs are used to sterilise the BFS equipment and this avoids human interventions. Due to automatic start up and filling processes BFS machines require no human interaction during the actual BFS process. However, certain adjustments or interventions need to be carried out by personnel. Both particle and microbiological contamination monitoring are required in a BFS machine environment, as well as routine CIP/SIP processes. BFS machines are typically fitted with several different sterilising air filtration systems for the buffer air, support parison air and air shroud grade A air (if needed for shuttle machines, e. g. open parison type ones). Typically, the air is sterilised by filtration systems that have automatic filter integrity testing installed (i. e. automatic water intrusion or particle testing). The air systems are typically integrated into the SIP cycle of the BFS machine.

BFS material
The materials used in BFS packaging are usually polyolefins, mainly polyethylene (LDPE or HDPE), and polypropylene (PP). These materials are robust and inert to ensure sterility and tightness during the product's shelf life. Diffusion tendencies can be reduced by using virgin polymers, but diffusion cannot be prevented entirely. This is due to the nature of polyolefins and their additives, if present. Several polyethylene suppliers have developed special EP or USP grade resin for BFS containers. Permeation into BFS containers and water loss may be an issue with some BFS resin. Therefore, in some applications, secondary packaging methods (laminate pouches) are used.

Advantages
BFS allows many different container designs, a consistent high process quality, a high process output, and is, compared against other packaging processes, inexpensive. In addition to that, BFS containers are lighter than glass containers, and shatterproof, which eases their transport. Due to the single-dose nature of BFS containers, they are more convenient to use for patients. BFS technology assures high levels of sterility,  especially compared against conventional filling, which is mainly achieved by the absence of human contact/interventions – a major source of contamination.

The Continuing Story of Bungalow Bill

"The Continuing Story of Bungalow Bill" is a song written by John Lennon (credited to Lennon–McCartney), and released by the English rock band the Beatles on their 1968 double album The Beatles (also known as the "White Album"). The song was recorded at EMI Studios on 8 October 1968 and was completed (including all overdubs) the same day. The group also started and completed the Lennon-composed "I'm So Tired" during the same recording session. Along with Lennon, the song also contains co-lead vocals by Yoko Ono, the only song recorded by the group to feature lead vocals by a non-member.

Composition
This song mocks the actions of a young American named Richard A. Cooke III, known as Rik, who was visiting his mother, Nancy Cooke de Herrera, at the ashram of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi in Rishikesh at the same time that the Beatles were staying with the Maharishi. According to his mother, both she and her son maintained friendly relations with all of the Beatles except for Lennon, who by Cooke de Herrera's account was "a genius" but distant and contemptuous of the wealthy American Cooke de Herrera and her clean-cut, college-attending son. According to Nancy's life account, Beyond Gurus, the genesis of the song occurred when she, Rik, and several others, including guides, set out upon elephants to hunt for a tiger (allegedly presented by their Indian guide as a traditional act). The pack of elephants was attacked by a tiger, which was shot by Rik. Rik was initially proud of his quick reaction and posed for a photograph with his prize. However, Rik's reaction to the slaying was mixed, as he has not hunted since. Nancy claims that all present recognised the necessity of Rik's action, but that Lennon's reaction was scornful and sarcastic, asking Rik: "But wouldn't you call that slightly life-destructive?" The song was written by Lennon as mocking what he saw as Rik's bravado and unenlightened attitude.

Lennon later told his version of the story in a Playboy interview, stating that: "'Bungalow Bill' was written about a guy in Maharishi's meditation camp who took a short break to go shoot a few poor tigers, and then came back to commune with God. There used to be a character called Jungle Jim, and I combined him with Buffalo Bill. It's sort of a teenage social-comment song and a bit of a joke." Mia Farrow, who was also at the ashram during the period, supports Lennon's story in her autobiography; she writes, "Then a self-important, middle-aged American woman arrived, moving a mountain of luggage into the brand-new private bungalow next to Maharishi's along with her son, a bland young man named Bill. People fled this newcomer, and no one was sorry when she left the ashram after a short time to go tiger hunting, unaware that their presence had inspired a new Beatles song – 'Bungalow Bill.'"

Musical structure
The song opens with a flamenco guitar phrase, played from a standard Mellotron bank of pre-recorded rhythms and phrases by studio engineer Chris Thomas. It is unknown how the sample was chosen. The solo involves all seven notes of the Phrygian mode, including a Spanish-sounding ♭II, a natural seventh from the harmonic minor scale and a blues-sounding ♭5. On some CD reissues, this solo closes the previous track, "Wild Honey Pie". The opening guitar solo is followed by the chorus in the key of C major, shifting between V (G on "Bungalow") and iv (Fm on "what did you"). What follows is a relative minor bridge starting with Am (on "He went out") then shifting to ♭VI (F on "elephant") and ♭VII (G on "gun"). Lennon then uses a V (E on "all-American") ♭VII (G on "bullet-headed") i (Am on "Saxon-mother's") and ♭VI (Fm on "son") to get back to the C major key. It is sung by all four Beatles, Ringo's then-wife Maureen, and Yoko Ono. The Mellotron reappears during the verses, played by Lennon, using mandolin samples, and during the outro, played by Thomas, using trombone samples. Lennon, who wrote the song, is the primary lead singer. Like the majority of Beatles songs written by either Lennon or Paul McCartney, it is credited to Lennon–McCartney.

Legacy
In Revolution in the Head, Ian MacDonald describes "The Continuing Story of Bungalow Bill" as a "lapse into tub-thumping banality."

Coinciding with the 50th anniversary of its release, Jacob Stolworthy of The Independent listed "The Continuing Story of Bungalow Bill" at number 24 in his ranking of the White Album's 30 tracks. He agreed with Lennon's statement that the song is "a bit of fun" and that "despite arriving early on, "Bungalow Bill" lingers in the mind as a slice of tone-shifting oddness."
