Gordon Zubrod
>>I'm writing Gordon Zubrod. Do you have access to more biographical info? JFW | T@lk 10:39, 12 July 2005 (UTC) Is this the normal way to reply to messages? There is quite a good (touching) "In Memoriam" about Zubrod by Emil Frei in the Journal of Clinical Oncology in Vol 17 (5) May 1999. I believe Zubrod wrote an autobiography with the unusual title "Stairway to surprise" which I've never seen anywhere. Best wishes from UCL. Talk

Bacteria
Hi, you wanted me to name a bacteria that can be seen by the naked eye? Would the largest bacteria count? Perhaps you should refer to wikipedia's remarkable resources on bacteria. A quick search would no doubt reveal that there are bacteria that are visible to the naked. Heck, there's even a link at the bottom of the page (which I put there no less!) that would direct you to a picture of that nasty little bacteria that is very visible to the naked eye. So, I am going to be reverting your changes, and in the future, questions regarding a proposed change belong on a talk page not on the comments of an incorrect change.

Yes, please do add me to the WikiProject Clinical Medicine. Just out of curiosity where are you in London and what are you specialising in? drjermy 11:06, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

Kudos!!!
I've been watching the RC to welcome new users and I see you reverting a vandalism every time on the heart related pages. Way to go. Also, looks like its about time to archive. With respect, Redwolf24 14:08, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for the guidance for my contributions, I was actually a bit uneasy about adding to such a popular database but I figured if I'm collecting notes on physiology for my course, I might as well add it to general pages on the different topics covered. The coding and programming is going to take a few days, I've already neglected Studio MX and HTML for years now, I used to be so on top of learning proper coding but these days it's just been work at study :)

www.getbodysmart.com
FYI, the above site is NOT MY SITE. I am not related to anatomy/physiology and have no idea even what any muscle is called. I was was browsing the internet to lookup what a particular muscle is called because I had pain in the muslce. After going through many sites that did a poor job, I found that the website mentioned above did "an excellent job" of explaining the details to layman like me. Thought it would benefit others like me to understand stuff easily. So I had added a link to it. It is depressing that people would just delete/ revert the edits of other users without examining how useful the added content is!

 * This is in response to the post on my talk page. If one cannot add pointers to external sites, that can serve as a reference to others browsing wikipedia, what's the whole point of having the "links to external sites" on wikipedia at all? One can just get rid of all of them, or have a policy that we cannot refer external site on Wikipedia. Wikipedia is a fascinating repository of articles but that doesn't mean that Wikipedia should be the ONLY good site in the universe that explains stuff or that it should replace the other sites. There might be others who might have their own reasons for not contributing to Wikipedia and write the articles in their own website instead. That does not mean we cannot appreciate that site and include that site as a good reference for the interested people browsing Wikipedia. By doing that, the number of people visiting Wikipedia wouldn't decrease, or Wikipedia would not become just a "bookmark" site. You've obviously been on Wikipedia longer than I've been. I request you to just take a few minutes to go through that site and reconsider your decision of reverting my edit and thereby removing the link. And let me add that I have nothing to do with the site or that I would in no way be personally benefited by your adding the link.--P. Gollakota 17:06, 18 July 2005 (UTC)

 * Thanks for taking time to visit the site and for allowing me to reinsert the links!

 * I totally agree with you. Wikipedia runs on contributions from the good users around the world but as an admin you must have also faced lots of people who vandalize, advertize their own site and do all such nasty things.

 * I should've tried to put myself in your shoes and understanding why my post has been deleted, and then should've just tried to explain why I included the link instead of blatantly stating that I was "depressed" at your behavior. I'm sorry.

 * And BTW, I am an electronics student and I have a site that explains stuff about communications, the contents of which I am in the process of moving to Wikipedia. Just because I realized that an article evolves beautifully when people write it collectively than me writing it alone. I added some content earlier with different login names earlier, but lost the passwords for them. Hence I created a new account. Again!

 * Got to go! I'll reinsert the links in anatomy, muscle and physiology pages tomorrow.

 * Best wishes --P. Gollakota 19:22, 18 July 2005 (UTC)

Hello Dr. Wolff: Could you please delete Category:United States Jewish history because someone (not me) went ahead and anonymously (and without discussion) emptied the categ and changed it into a REDIRECT to Category:Jewish American history to make it consistent with the namings of the other groups in Category:Jewish history.

Nephrotic syndrome
Just curious why you would not allow the link to be placed to The Nephcure Foundation in the above named article? When researching this condition on my Grandson's ailment I found it most helpful and I thought others would also. HJKeats 22:34, 20 July 2005 (UTC)

Thank you for your kind words. My grandson is still in hospital recovering from surgery, they had removed his appendix, they thought his pain was from it. Only then did they test his urine and discovered his true illness. He's nearly three years old. I agree that the articles themselves require the work and not more links. I read the Wikipedia article first and was really frightened on the Prognosis and then went searching for some comforting information and a degree of hope. Thanks again, HJKeats 10:19, July 21, 2005 (UTC)

copyright, nephrotic syn.
Hi doc,

Just wondering about copyright stuffs-- I have a concern about the article Total cost of ownership. Posted to the Talk:Total_cost_of_ownership... but no one seems to be interested in this.

I don't see anything wrong with the link HJKeats added... whereas I suppose you could say it is better to link to the source (that being NIDDK, NIH) Nephron 02:04, 21 July 2005 (UTC)

preclinical medicine?
Hi there, I am PhatRita, a medical student and I have been recently following your clinical medicine project with great interest. I have wondered whether there is a preclinical medicine wikiproject? I think there is great potential for expansion on anatomy, physiology and maybe medical biochemistry, genetics etc, and would be a useful source for medical and other students of life sciences.

Currently, the anatomy pages are a mess. There is no overall policy on how to approach a page, whether to use lay terms or profession terms, eg above vs superior. There is also great overlap between human and other animal anatomy. The entry human physiology is currently a stub and was under consideration to be a COTW but did not receive enough votes.

What do you think?

PhatRita 10:51, 22 July 2005 (UTC)

 * thanks for your reply. this is the bit I'm stumped on. I have no idea how to begin to approach this. I think I'll start by contacting other members to see if there is interest and then place the idea on wikiprojects. Do you have any suggestions? PhatRita 11:13, 22 July 2005 (UTC)

 * Hi, I've just finished the WikiProject Preclinical Medicine page. Whew! Could I add some cross links between our projects? PhatRita 23:50, 26 July 2005 (UTC)

Breast
Hi,

Re: Breast OK, i'll concede and lose the external link i put on. I am new here, and perhaps it is in a way inappropriate. It's a shame there aren't some suitable images to illustrate diversity in breasts though.

Glad you eventually stopped taking off my bit about size by the way - i think there's room for a few sentences there, even if my first quick attempts weren't perfect (and it's still not, but it's there to be edited now). I wasn't intending to put anything with dubious connatations up, as i hope you realise.

Spute 23:01, 24 July 2005 (UTC)

Hi, thanks for your comments. I know what you mean about Wikipedia being addictive, there's something about coming across an encyclopedia and thinking 'i know more than that' (with topics as diverse as 1990s heavy metal and solid state chemistry, it's not just breasts i know about!) and actually being able to do something about it...

Oh and yes, i wish i knew more about VBH, it's quite a rare condition, and not one i feel qualified to go into in any depth. Hopefully someone else will.

Hello Wolf,

regarding your question about Slabodka - your are absolutelly right. The biggest problem I see here (please dont be offended polish contributors) that ammount of pro-polish contributors is much bigger than pro-lithuanian. I've suggested, in my opinion fair, policy about naming of placenames, but still got no respone (read Talk:Paneriai). Give me your point of view on that.

And of course, I'm going to do a lot more contributions regarding Lithuania.

 * As far as later editing of the Gemara by Ravina, there were two Ravinas. The second, a student of Mereimar, redacted Rav Ashi's second version of the Gemara. The Ravina discussed by the version before JEdgar's editing refers to a close colleague of Rav Ashi. HKT talk 19:40, 1 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Not everyone would agree. "If Rabina was much younger than Ashi and lived to a very old age, the assumption of a second Rabina would be superfluous."  (Introduction to the Talmud and Midrash (2nd ed, 1996), Günter Stemberger, page 97.) RachelBrown 07:08, 4 August 2005 (UTC)

Neutral Wikipedia?
Dear Wikipedia administrator

I am writting you about the issue of Macedonia, Republic of Macedonia, Macedonian Slavs (like Wikipedia calls the Macedonians) and the problem between Macedonia and Greece about the term Macedonia. I am aware that this issue is largely discussed here, at Wikipedia, and Wikipedia claims that it is trying to take a neutral side. But, that is not the case. Wikipedia is everything except neutral in this question. In the following lines I will explain you why.

From the text in Wikipedia most of the people will conclude that Macedonian nation appeared during the World War 2 and Tito was the one who 'invented' us. The family of my wife (she is Mexican) read this and asked me is it truth. That was actually the first time I read what Wikipedia says about my nation, which was a direct reason for my reaction. My grandfather is born in 1911th. Yesterday I had a talk with him. He took a part in the strugle for independence since 1925th and he took a part in the 2nd world war. He is alive and personal prove that Wikipedia is full of bullshit and lies about our origin. He spent half of his life proving and fighting for that. He was shot 3 times, all 3 from the Bulgarians who wanted to ocupy Macedonia in the Balkan wars and in the WW1 and WW2. Just a 1 min with him will show you how many lies you suport in Wikipedia.

I tried to edit some of the text few days ago, but everithing I wrote was deleted. And all I wrote were facts. Fact 1. Macedonians (or Macedonian Slavs, like ONLY Wikipedia, Greece and Cyprus calls us) is the only nation of many living in the area concentrated inside the borders of the geographical region of Macedonia. This is a pure fact, something that you can even find on the CIA web page. Can you give any fact to deny my fact? If you can not, why you erased it from Wikipedia? Fact 2. Republic of Macedonia has diplomatic relations with about 150 countries in the world. Wikipedia says that "at least 20" countries recognize Macedonia under the name Macedonia. Guess what? That number is more than 100. And this is an officially confirmed by our ministery for foreighn affairs. Fact 3. Wikipedia says that my country Contraversialy calls itself Republic of Macedonia. This is a pure example of taking a side in the problem. Why you don't say that Greece contraversialy deny us the use of the name Macedonia? If you intended to be neutral, just write that we have the naming problem with Greece, but do not call my name "contraversial"!!! Fact 4. While explaining about the antient Macedonia, its kings etc. you highly support the claim for their Greek origin. I can give you 1000s of facts that that is not truth and I beleive that some Greek guy can give you 1000s facts that those claims are truth. That was 2400 years ago and there is no chanse for us to know the real situation. We can only guess. But, when you give the Greek suported version, why you ignore the version suported by the newaged Macedonians? In this moment I can give you 10 names of internationally respected scientist supporting our theory. If you are neutral, why you ignore it? Fact 5. Wikipedia says that the Turkish Empire were calling us Bulgarians. Strange, because the Turks were recognizing the uniqueness of our nation since the moment they occupied the teritory of Macedonia. Actually, the Turkish history archives are the biggest prove of our existance, history and culture. Did anyone of you ever read anything from those archives? Even on the birth certificate of Khemal Ataturk says that he is born in Bitola, Macedonia. And his autobiography is full of memories of his childhood spend with the Macedonians. Fact 6. Wikipedia ignores the egsodus of the Macedonian people from Greece and says they were running because they were supporters of the comunists. 1/3 of the Macedonians have origin from this part of Macedonia. They were runned away from there by force and you can find many historical proves for that. Again, big part of my family has origin from there. As a matter of fact, my grand-grand father was married to a Greek woman, my grand-grand mother. But, no matter of that, his house was burned and he was forced to run away for his life and the life of his family. How dare you deny this? Do you know that even today my grand father is not allowed to visit Greece, because he was a kid when his family runned away from there? Fact 7. There are about 500 000 Macedonians that live outside Macedonia, mostly in Canada, Australia, USA, Sweden etc. At least 1/3 moved there before 1930s. If we were a product of Tito, how can you explain that even they feel of Macedonian nationality? I have a family in USA which moved there in 1927th. Their ancestors (my cousins) do not even know how to talk Macedonian well. But, they still feel Macedonian. One of them is even one of the financiers of the party of the Macedonians in Bulgaria, trying to help their strugle to keep their national identity. I repeat, first time he visited Macedonia was in 1995th, far after Tito. And his family moved in USA in 1927th, far before Tito. Fact 8. Wikipedia claims that the book of Macedonian songs by Dimitar Miladinov is actually Bulgarian. Have you maybe seen a original copy of the book, printed in Croatia? IT says clearly "Macedonian". Not to mention that the same author wrote one of the most important books in the Macedonian history "For the Macedonian issues", again printed in Croatia, where it clearly talks about the Macedonian nation and non-Bulgarian origin.

All this was simply erased from the database. I didn't erase anything when editing these pages, I support the other side and I do not want to hide their facts. But why Wikipedia wants to hide our facts, which show that we are not a product of Tito's ambitions for the Aegean Sea. In Tito's time, the Yugoslav army was far superior in the region. If he wanted the Aegean Sea, he would get it very easily.

Many things in Wikipedia are very offensive for the nowdays Macedonians. Wikipedia simply ignores us, gives us a new name and supports the theories of denial of our existance, culture and history.

I will try to give you an example that includes with Mexico. I beleive that you know that the Maya civilisation was invaded by the Spanish kingdom. Spanish were ruling Mexico for centuries and millions of Spanish people moved at Mexican teritory. Later, after the liberation war, Mexicans formed its own country. Fact 1. Mayas were living in Mexico (same as Antique Macedonians). Fact 2. Spanish invaded them and great number of Spanish people moved to Mexico (The Slavs moved on the theritory of Macedonia and there was no reported fights or movements of people away from the teritory where the Slavs settled). Fact 3. Nowdays, everyone of the Mexican is aware that they are partly Spanish, but they still have Mayan origin (Wikipedia says that the people living in Republic of Macedonia are Slavs. When there was no reported resetling of the Antique Macedonians, how is possible they not to mix with the Slavs? It is a fact that the nowdays Macedonians are not same as the Antique Macedonians, but they certanly have a significant part of their genes. Same as I beleive that Greece has a part of their Genes, but they are definitly not their direct ancestors). Fact 4. Mexican speak Spanish. Reason: The Spanish culture was superior in that time. (The Antique Macedonians accepted the Helenic culture, including a variation of the Greek language. Reason: the Helenic culture was superior in that time. Everyone who knows at least little history will know that Hellenic and Greek are not synonims. Greek is nation, Hellenic is religion/culture. USA and England both speak English, both are mostly cristians, but they are SEPARATE nations. Aren't they? Same happens to Germany and Austria, or Serbia and Croatia, or Canada and France, or Brazil and Portugal, or the rest of Latin America and Spain)

And here is a comment about the claims of the Bulgarians, that the Macedonians are actually Bulgarians. If that is truth, I am going to kill myself. Bulgarians through the history made the worst for my nation. During the strugle of the Macedonian people for independence from the Turkish empire, at the end of the 19th and begginbing of the 20th century, the Bulgarians were the ones who killed the most of our revolutionaries, including 4 members of my close family which were members of the Macedonian revolutionary organization (VMRO). Whis is not something that I was told by Tito. My grandfather (the same grandfather from above) was in fact a member of the same organization. He personaly knew many of the revolutioners that Bulgarians claim are theirs, including 2 of the leaders: Goce Delcev and Gorce Petrov. They were Macedonians and they all gave their lives for free and independent Macedonia and they had nothing to do with Bulgaria. There was a part of them who were Bulgarians inserted in the organizations, who were actually the killers of the real Macedonian revolutioners, because it was in Bulgarian interest to weaken the organization, so they could take the lead in the organization and later put Macedonia in the hands of the Bulgarians. Thanks god, they did not succeed. Wikipedia claims that VMRO was pro-Bulgarian and the revolutioners were Bulgarian fighters. You suposed to see the face of my 94 year old grandfather when I told him your claims. Neurtal Wikipedia? I do not think so.

At the end I have to ask for Wikipedia NOT TO TAKE A SIDE IN THIS. I am not asking to remove the Greek and Bulgarian side of the story. But, why you ignore our claims, which are suported by many non-Greek and non-Bulgarian scientists and very largely through the web. There are just about 2-2.5 million Macedonians around the world. We do not have enought influence and strenght as Greece has, which is much more powerful and richer country than Macedonia. The Macedonian-Greek question is too hard and too complicated to solve. History can be interpreted in 1000 ways, especially on a teritory like the Balcany, where there are so many nations on so little space. Fortunately, DNA testings are getting more and more reliable and soon it will be possible to be used to acuratelly show the origin of our nations. I hope that then the denyal of me, my history, culture and existance will finaly stop. It is very disapointing that Wikipedia takes a part in all that.

With all the respect, Igor Šterbinski Skopje, Macedonia is@on.net.mk

Categorisation
Hello JFW. I'm afraid that I strongly disagree with much of your message to me and your alterations to my edit to Asher ben Jehiel.

Do you believe that Ashkenazim suddenly appeared in the early 1600s? The Ashkenazi article refers to their existence in the 11th Century, well before Asher ben Jechiel was born. If you disagree with that, please edit that article.

Orthodoxy means subscribing to the orthodox belief system; surely Rabbi Asher ben Jehiel did! While there may have been no reform rabbis (in the modern sense) in his day, there were and had always been non-Orthodox people; he was orthodox and not Karaite, or a heretic like Elisha ben Abuyah for example. The Talmudic rabbi Raba, centuries before Asher ben Jehiel, is rightly listed as an orthodox rabbi.

I have some sympathy for your suggestion that people should not be overly categorised. I draw your attention to the List of Jews, where the introduction explicitly states that it should include people whose connection to Judaism is tenuous and clearly "not a major part of their public persona". Have you campaigned to change this? There are currently 96 people in the category Jewish American actors (I didn't put any of them there). For how many of them is their Jewishness "a major part of their public persona"?

You say that the Rosh became Sefardi when he moved to Spain. There is a List of Austrian Jews, which includes many people who fled from the Nazis and went to live here or in America for example. Should they be removed from the list, because they ceased to be Austrian when they fled? Indeed, you describe yourself as "a Dutch doctor living and working in the United Kingdom". By your logic, you should describe yourself as British :-)

Please e-mail me if you'd like to discuss this further. RachelBrown 09:41, 4 August 2005 (UTC)

OK, maybe you'd better put something on the Orthodox Rabbis category to explain that it should not cover rabbis before about 1800. And remove Raba! By the way, in case you missed it, I also put in a :-) RachelBrown 17:43, 4 August 2005 (UTC)

However, if you delve into the details, there are a lot of nonsensical information.  For example, Wehner wrote about sensitivity of the skin to pressure and called it tribosensitivity, a made up name.  He also wrote that trauma-induced pigment is called "melasma schmidtii", another made up fact. And so forth.  I tend to believe that everything that he wrote should be read with skepticism - for example, his other entries in Wikipedia include Atromeroptic Law, which sounds good but it's actually a made up law of physics.  If you visit his website, you'll see that he has deduced the nature of antigravity, created a new branch of mathematics called eucalculus (combination of euler and a new, seamless calculus), a new data compression scheme based on fibonacci series, etc.

 * I'm not trying to knock on someone's creativity - it's just that what he's writing is highly suspect. Right behind vandalism, this type of entries are very damaging to Wikipedia's credibility.  At least it's easy to recognize vandalism, it's harder to recognize made up facts and inventions.

 * So, not being well versed in wikipedia's social conventions - what is the norm in dealing with this? Hfwd 18:48, 13 August 2005 (UTC)

Thank you for your input - I'll put up VfD on some of his invention entries. One more question - he redirected melasma to melasma praegnans, which as far as I know a term that he invented (it's not found in any medical references that I have), and then wrote a new entry called melasma. How do I cancel the redirect and revert melasma to the original entry? Thanks again! Hfwd 00:48, 15 August 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for reverting the redirect on melasma. I agree with you that Wehner tends to invent things and that all of his edits should now be looked over. I'll take a look at a couple of them when I get the chance later this week. Hfwd 16:38, 15 August 2005 (UTC)

Miscarriage
Yes I agree transfer info to habitual abortion is improvement, two people in a fast sequence of edits left me struggling to edit & insert my own contributions - I waited for the two of you to pause :-) Internally inconsistancy in the miscarriage article on some of statistics (eg 'most threatened do well', yet under relevant sub-section the correct value of 50% proceeding to loss). I've edited some of the statistics and provided UK BMJ & RCOG references. I also moved the types around for more logical progression (ie 'threatened' may lead to 'complete', 'incomplete' may lead to 'septic' and then of course may be 'missed').  In all quite a lot of changes, so any improvement to my English always appreciated :-) -David Ruben 22:45, 5 August 2005 (UTC)

N.meningitides
re Meningococcus infection not being a medical emergency, why not? Having septicaemia or meningitis may kill within an hour unless promptly treated. True, meningitis and septicaemia have their own entries, but if someone decides to search WP generally or the Emergency Medical category directly for the pathogen, then I would have thought meningococcus should be so highlighted. Perhaps this would lead to over categorisation of topics and WP-medical has a convention on this ...? -David Ruben 13:41, 7 August 2005 (UTC)

Fair enough - point taken :-)   -David Ruben 19:58, 7 August 2005 (UTC)

Rebbe bios
Dear JFW, I am a litvak, but I enjoy reading about the rebbes and writing good articles. Thanks for your encouragement. Regarding your question, I am familiar with three English-language newspapers—Yated Ne'eman in America, Yated Ne'eman in Israel, and Hamodia—which regularly print biographies and stories about rebbes. My next-door neighbor, who writes rebbe bios for the American Yated in America, is willing to share his entire file with me. All his articles were published in the American Yated; however, he doesn't know when they appeared nor whether they are linked on the internet. Can we use his research, which is published and not "original" according to Wikipedia standards? (Of course, it would have to be rewritten a bit.) Otherwise, I could see piecing together short bios from the newspapers and books like ArtScroll on a name-by-name basis. Yoninah 17:27, 10 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Let me clarify: Most of the information published in English-language newspapers like Yated and Hamodia are researched in Hebrew books. This research is passed around quite liberally; my neighbor just gave his whole file to a Hamodia writer who is now publishing rebbe bios based on the information. My first idea is to do the same thing—give the information without crediting a source, as you did in your Rabbi Simcha Bunim of Peshischa article. I would never think of printing the bio verbatim from the newspaper anyway, but would alter it for brevity and NPOV. However, if Wikipedia only wants material from published sources, I would have to go the long way and do a lot of book research. Then at least I could cite the source. Which do you prefer?Yoninah 21:56, 11 August 2005 (UTC)
 * So how would you like me to proceed?Yoninah 23:05, 11 August 2005 (UTC)

Constipation
Phew, what a great edit you did. With all those recipes & lifestyle lists, no wonder this had been bugging you :-)

In Diagnosis you correctly mention enquiry after fibre, but also for fluids (if only my elderly paients would drink more than 1 cup water and 2 of tea a day!). I thought wise add the enquiry over immobility and medication side effects as this is so commonly encountered. I rearranged a bit the benefits of rectal examination, in part as use of suppositories is purely dependant on stools in rectum or constipation being higher up. I moved the cancer lump to the end of the list.

In treatment I moved psyllium to laxatives section, put warning in about non-medical routine use of laxatives. I reordered the combined list in order of usage (softeners almost never used these days) and gave a few examples. - David Ruben 22:53, 10 August 2005 (UTC)

 * Look in your BNF ! Docusate is a stimulant, not a softener. Softeners are Liquid parraffin or Arachis oil enemas. Macrogols are osmotic agents - yes my local District Nurse is trying switch my prescribing from traditional Lactulose to Movicol, I'm not convinced yet, especially as its twice the price.

Pforta is a former Cistercian monastery (1137-1540), near Naumburg on the Saale in the Prussian province of Saxony. It is now a celebrated German public boarding school, called Landesschule Pforta. It is coeducational and teaches around 400 high school students.

Roman Catholic Monastery
The monastery was at first situated in Schmölln on the Sprotta, near Altenburg. Count Bruno of Pleissengau founded there, in 1127, a Benedictine monastery and endowed it with 1100 "hides" of land. This foundation not being successful, Bishop Udo I of Naumburg, a relative of Bruno, on 23 April, 1132, replaced the Benedictines by Cistercian monks from the monastery of Walkenried. The situation here proved undesirable, and in 1137 Udo transferred the monastery to Pforta, and conferred upon it 50 hides of arable land, an important tract of forest, and two farms belonging to the diocese.

The patroness of the abbey was the Blessed Virgin Mary, and the first abbot, Adalbert, 1132-1152. Under the third abbot, Adetold, two convents were founded from it, in the Mark of Meissen and in Silesia, and in 1163, the monasteries of Alt-Celle and Leubus were also established in the latter province. At this period the monks numbered about eighty. In 1205 Pforta sent a colony of monks to Livonia, founding there the monastery of Dünamünde. The abbey was distinguished for its excellent system of management, and after the first 140 years of its existence its possessions had increased tenfold.

At the end of the thirteenth and the beginning of the fourteenth century though a period of strife, the monastery flourished again. The last quarter of the fourteenth century witnessed, however, the gradual decline of its prosperity, and also the relaxation of monastic discipline. When Abbot Johannes IV was elected in 1515, there were forty-two monks and seven lay brothers who later revolted against the abbot; an inspection by Duke George of Saxony reported that morality had ceased to exist in the monastery. The last Abbot, Peter Schederich, was elected in 1533. When the Catholic Duke George was succeeded by his Protestant brother Henry, the monastery was suppressed (9 November, 1540), the abbot, eleven monks, and four lay brothers being pensioned.

Boarding School
In 1543, Duke Moritz opened a national school in the abbey, appropriating for its use the revenues of the suppressed monastery of Memleben. At first the number of scholars was 100, in 1563 fifty more were able to be accommodated. The first rector was Johann Gigas, renowned as a lyric poet. Under Justinus Bertuch (1601-1626) the school attained the zenith of its prosperity. It suffered greatly during the Thirty Years' War, in 1643, there being only eleven scholars. Among its pupils may be mentioned the poet, Klopstock, and the philosopher, Fichte. After 1815 Pforta belonged to Prussia, and then to Germany. Today the school is maintained by the German state Saxony-Anhalt, but still supported by its own Schulpforta Foundation.

Architecture
The remains of the monastery include the 13th century gothic church; it is a cross-vaulted, colonnaded basilica with an extraordinarily long nave, a peculiar western façade, and a late Romanesque double-naved cloister. What remains of the original building (1137-40) is in the Romanesque style, while the restoration (1251-1268) belongs to the early Gothic. Other buildings are now used as dormatories and lecture halls. There is also the Furstenhaus, built in 1573. Schulpforta was one of the three Furstenschulen founded in 1543 by Maurice, Elector of Saxony (at that time duke), the two others being at Grimpla and at Meissen.

Adam Crozier

Adam Alexander Crozier (born 26 January 1964) is a Scottish businessman who was formerly the chief executive officer of media company ITV plc, operator of the ITV television network covering most of the United Kingdom.

After a career at Saatchi & Saatchi culminating in the post of joint chief executive in 1995, he came to wide public prominence as the new chief executive of The Football Association in 2000 at the age of 35, before in 2003 becoming the chief executive of the Royal Mail Group, the United Kingdom's mail delivery service, where he oversaw a controversial modernisation and redundancy programme. Whilst former Post Office Ltd CEO Paula Vennells has faced much of the wrath for the British Post Office scandal, it was under Crozier's leadership that much of the Horizon computing systems errors and prosecution of innocent sub-post masters occurred.

In January 2010 he was announced as the new chief executive of ITV plc, where he arrived on 26 April 2010. Crozier announced he was leaving this post in June 2017.

Crozier became the chairman of BT Group plc on 1 December 2021.

Early life and education
Crozier was born and raised on the Isle of Bute on the west coast of Scotland in 1964. His father was a manager for Lord Bute, and his mother was secretary to the managing director of The Scotsman. Crozier went to a school in Ayr, before moving to Graeme High School, a comprehensive school in Falkirk. He graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree (BA) in business organisation from Edinburgh's Heriot-Watt University. While at school, Crozier had trials with both Hibernian and Stirling Albion football clubs.

Crozier received an honorary doctorate from Heriot-Watt University in 2005.

Early career
Crozier joined Pedigree Petfoods as a graduate trainee in 1984. In 1986, he moved to The Daily Telegraph to work in media sales.

Saatchi & Saatchi
From 1988 to 1999 Crozier worked for advertising agency Saatchi and Saatchi, becoming media director in 1990, and then being appointed as joint chief executive from 1995 alongside Tamara Ingram. This occurred in the wake of the departure of the founding Saatchi brothers to form M&C Saatchi.

The Football Association
Crozier came to public attention as the surprise appointment to the role of chief executive of The Football Association, the governing body of England's national game, football, aged just 35 and having had no experience of business in football. He replaced Graham Kelly. In his short tenure from 2000 to 2002, the FA relocated headquarters from Lancaster Gate to Soho Square, appointed the first ever foreign England national team manager, Swede Sven-Göran Eriksson, and became a more commercial organisation, maximising its revenues. He also reduced the average age of the FA's staff from 55 to 32, progressed the Wembley Stadium redevelopment, and reduced the FA's ruling body from a 91-member FA Board to a committee of 12. His moves were not without criticism, with complaints from some about lack of consultation and of acting beyond his powers. He was replaced by Mark Palios.

While at the FA, Crozier reportedly identified some members of the England national team as the Golden Generation. It was a term later criticised towards the end of the decade by some England players as having been undeserved, and of causing undue expectations and pressure due to the fact they had at the time, and in years since, failed to win major tournaments.

Royal Mail
Crozier became the chief executive of the Royal Mail Group in February 2003. Entering the post, Crozier described his remit as the "biggest corporate turnaround programme in the UK". Crozier initiated a programme of modernisation and reform, to deal with changes in the service brought about by reforms beginning with the Postal Services Act 2000.

In Crozier's first three years, the Royal Mail division produced record annual profits of £537m in May 2005, making £2m a day in profits, up from £1.5m a day losses before he joined. The Group overall had been transformed from recording losses of £1.1bn at the start of the turnaround plan in 2002 into a profit of £355m in 2005. Royal Mail chairman Allan Leighton said it was a "fantastic turnaround" but also that there was still "a huge amount to do". The newly formed mail regulator Postwatch were however critical that it had failed to achieve 11 of its 15 licence targets during the previous financial year. As the postal service was opened up to competition in early 2006, Royal Mail recorded losses of £10m in 2006 and £279m in 2007.

His reforms included highly controversial large scale post office closures in the thousands, layoffs of Royal Mail staff, changes in working practices, and the ending of the second daily delivery and moving the first daily delivery to later in the day. While at the Royal Mail, Crozier's salary, one of the largest in the country for the head of a publicly owned body, was criticised in light of the changes being made to the Royal Mail workforce. Ongoing reforms eventually led to large scale industrial disputes and strike action in both 2007 and 2009 onwards.

Crozier was CEO of Royal Mail at a crucial period in the Post Office scandal when the Post Office was still part of Royal Mail, in which hundreds of sub-postmasters were falsely accused of, and prosecuted for, theft or false accounting. Prosecutions were conducted based on revenue shortfalls identified by the Post Office's Horizon computer system. These were erroneous and the result of bugs and errors in the system. Post Office officials knew about the bugs as early as 2002, but chose to continue with the prosecutions regardless.

In May 2024, the Financial Times reported that Crozier had received letters from at least four Members of Parliament about problems with the Horizon system, and their consequences for sub-postmasters, while he was at the Royal Mail. This was despite Crozier having testified under oath at the on-going Post Office Inquiry that he "was not aware of the tragic situation for Post Office sub-postmasters and their families during my time at Royal Mail."

ITV
Crozier left the Royal Mail in 2010 to become the chief executive of media group ITV plc.

ITV plc is one of three partners within ITV Network Limited, the not-for-profit organisation which runs the ITV television network, the United Kingdom's first commercial network effectively created under the Television Act 1954. Crozier was replacing Michael Grade, who announced his intention to leave in April 2009. Crozier was given the task of increasing ITV's advertising revenues which had fallen with the proliferation of new channels in the British television market. On announcing the appointment, ITV chairman Archie Norman said of Crozier that he is a "very strong leader with a great track record in delivering transformational change".

In ITV's 2023-4 docu-drama Mr Bates vs The Post Office, ITV failed to make mention of the role of Crozier in the unfolding seven years of the British Post Office scandal, prior to the reins being handed over in 2010 to his successor CEO Paula Vennells. At the time Crozier was Royal Mail CEO, the Post Office was, in effect, a division thereof.

Other roles
Crozier was also a board member of Camelot Group, the former operator of the UK National Lottery, and the Debenhams retail chain, before it was liquidated. He is also member of the President's Committee of the Confederation of British Industry (CBI). He joined the board of Whitbread in 2017, becoming a senior independent director that year. In 2018 he succeeded the retiring Richard Baker as Whitbread's chairman.

Crozier was the chairman of Vue Cinemas from 2017 to 2020, and the chair of ASOS plc from 2018 to 2021.

In February 2020 Crozier was appointed non-executive chairman of Kantar Group. In December 2021, he became chairman of BT, replacing Jan du Plessis.

Personal life
Crozier is married to Annette, whom he met while working for Saatchi and Saatchi, and has two children. Despite having taken on high-profile jobs involving pressing through major upheavals, he is described as "softly spoken" and has previously said of the spotlight, "I hate it, absolutely hate it. The bizarre thing about the last three jobs I've done is that I don't like [the public profile] at all. I will go to enormous lengths not to do public things – because it is just not me."

Talk:Isozyme

Untitled
I have a question concerning the term isozym. I would like to compare two enzymes which use the same substrate and produce the identical product. The two enzymes however use different cofactors. In one case the "cofactor" is molecular Oxygen and NADP+ and in the other case the enzyme uses H2O and electrons are transferred somehow into the membrane of the bacterium. Is it feasible to talk of isozymes ? Answer Yah why not, since they use the same substrate and produce the same product/function.It does make sense because mutation or insertion deletion might have occured resulting the enzymes to have different binding cofactor sites of which still generating the formation of the same product or function (transportation of the electron).152.106.240.139 10:32, 12 August 2006 (UTC) 152.106.240.139 10:32, 12 August 2006 (UTC) Sandiso Peter(UJHB)

When typing in the search word Allozyme, I was directed to this page leading me to believe that an Isozyme was equivalent to an Allozyme. Upon presenting this to my chemistry professor, I was told that allozymes and isozymes were not equivalent and that it was a very common mistake to refer to them as such. I believe more emphasis should be placed on this within the article as they are distinctly different from each other and although these articles had been merged in the past, they should not have been.
 * I've fixed the redirect now. There's a tiny bit of informtion there but it needs a lot of work. This isn't my particular area so I won't really be able to help a great deal but it's a start.  M e d o s  (talk • contribs) 12:23, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
 * I've added this to the allozyme talk page, may help here too? I believe this is the first mention of the term allozyme: "We propose the term allozyme for the variant proteins produced by allelic forms of the same locus, to avoid the now common confusion with isozymes which are the various polymers produced from monomers specified by different loci." from http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1212247/pdf/841.pdf Prakash, Satya, R. C. Lewontin, and J. Lo Hubby. "A molecular approach to the study of genic heterozygosity in natural populations IV. Patterns of genic variation in central, marginal and isolated populations of Drosophila pseudoobscura." Genetics 61, no. 4 (1969): 841.

91.67.141.25 (talk) 14:32, 16 December 2014 (UTC) The open paragraph should be changed - since the first 3 sentences are plagiarized from Stryer's Biochemistry. 4.225.238.61 (talk) 00:17, 13 April 2008 (UTC)

This is most definitely NOT a B-class article. It has misinformation, and is missing substantial amounts of other important information. For example, the use of isoenzyme (the correct term, by the way) techniques in medical diagnosis, in gene mapping, in species identification, in cell culture contamination detection are a few of the missing areas.

'''The entire article doesnt have any citation just reference section has some books listed, it would be very kind if someone can provide citation to the article. there is no citation in the article.''' Demi lion (talk) 12:55, 13 June 2014 (UTC)

I'm pretty sure the definition of "isozyme" is not from the Hunter/Markert 1957 paper in Science, since no sentence cited appears in the paper in question (but it is an example of a discovered isozyme). I believe the term "isozyme" was defined later by Markert and Moller in 1959, see this paper, last sentence of the first paragraph: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC222630/pdf/pnas00192-0095.pdf 91.67.141.25 (talk) 13:49, 16 December 2014 (UTC)

This page is full of bias and sounds like (is) an ad. This would be part of this areas council to re-imagine this area as affluent and 'new', which is just not the case. It is a lower middle class suburb. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.45.122.230 (talk) 21:06, 14 February 2010 (UTC)
