Melanohalea poeltii | Short description | Melanohalea poeltii is a species of foliose lichen in the family Parmeliaceae. It occurs in Nepal and northeastern India, where it grows on the bark of dwarf shrubs and other woody plants in windswept subalpine scrub. |
Melanohalea poeltii | Taxonomy | Taxonomy
The species was originally described by Ted Esslinger in 1987 as a member of the genus Melanelia. The type specimen was collected in Nepal by Josef Poelt, for whom the lichen is named. The taxon was transferred to Melanohalea in 2004 following a morphological and molecular analysis of brown lichens. |
Melanohalea poeltii | Description | Description
Melanohalea poeltii forms a small, tightly attached () foliose thallus that rarely exceeds 6–7 cm in diameter. Its are only 1–3 (sometimes up to 5) mm wide, short and rounded to slightly elongated, and often overlap one another. The upper surface varies from olive-brown to reddish-brown, darkening almost to black in the oldest parts; it is generally smooth but can appear faintly pitted or wrinkled, and the lobe tips may carry a light, powder-like bloom (). Beneath, the surface is black and rather glossy with a moderate covering of simple root-like rhizines that secure the lichen to bark or rock. No reproductive structures (apothecia or pycnidia) have been observed in the type material, so the species is known only in its sterile state.
Vegetative propagules in the form of true isidia—tiny, outgrowths that can break off and start new thalli—cover the older parts of the thallus. They originate as minute spherical that lack the pale breathing pores (pseudocyphellae) common in related species, and develop into cylindrical to short-branched rods measuring about 0.10–0.25 mm long and 0.06–0.09 mm wide. True soredia are absent. Pseudocyphellae themselves are very sparse, small and the same colour as the surrounding , making them hard to spot even under a lens.
Spot test chemistry sets M. poeltii apart from look-alike brown parmelioid lichens. All cortical tests are negative, but the medulla gives a strong PD+ reaction, turning bright yellow-orange to reddish-orange owing to fumarprotocetraric acid; other standard tests (K, C, KC) are negative. This PD-positive medulla with fumarprotocetraric acid, together with its isidiate surface, distinguishes the species from M. elegantula, which lacks detectable lichen products, and from M. olivaceoides, whose PD+ reaction is produced by isidioid soredia rather than true isidia and which lacks pseudocyphellae. Esslinger noted that the overall chemistry and habit bring M. poeltii close to the non-isidiate M. olivacea, potentially forming a "primary–secondary" . |
Melanohalea poeltii | Habitat and distribution | Habitat and distribution
Melanohalea poeltii is a high-mountain species first described from the Mahalangur Himal in the Nepalese Khumbu. The type material was collected near Bibre (roughly 4,500–4,600 m elevation) and Pheriche (about 4,250 m), where the thallus grows tightly appressed to the bark of dwarf shrubs and other woody hosts in windswept subalpine scrubland immediately below the permanent-snow zone. Esslinger noted that its habit and choice of sheltered yet exposed twigs parallels that of M. elegantula, suggesting a preference for thin-barked vegetation in sites subject to intense ultraviolet light and large daily temperature swings.
A range extension based on later collections places the species eastward into North Sikkim, India. Here it was found at about 4,100 m on living twigs above Thangu and occurs in the same alpine scrub as, and sometimes intermixed with, the isidiate lichen M. gomukhensis. All confirmed records are corticolous, and no populations have yet been documented beyond the central and eastern Himalaya, indicating that M. poeltii is a regional endemic restricted to cold, humid high-elevation belts of that mountain chain. |

Wikipedia:Graphics Lab/Map workshop/Archive/Apr 2025 | Request: New Location maps of Angola are needed. Province and municipal division was changed in August 2024. | Request: New Location maps of Angola are needed. Province and municipal division was changed in August 2024.
Article(s)
Very many geography related articles of Angola. For example, all maps of the article Provinces of Angola needs to be updated with new administrative borders. All articles of current provinces of Angola need a new location map. Cities and other locations in Angola typically use Template:Location map, and the background maps of Angola used needs to be updated. Perhaps this one replaces the existing administrative and topographic maps of Angola used in the country template, with newer ones?
Request
The Law on the political-administrative division of Angola of 22 August 2024 changed the provincial and local division of the country. As a result, Angola now has 21 provinces instead of 18, and the number of municipalities has almost doubled from 164 to 326. You can read about this e.g. in Provinces of Angola, and in some other wikipedias like :fi:Angolan maakunnat (and about current municipalities: :fi:Angolan kunnat), which have updated their content already.
The Angolan law 14/24 describes the boundaries of each administrative region, province by province and municipality by municipality. I found that only few news media published a map showing the main features of the new regional division, here is one which could help: Unfortunately, some of the official publications, like the presidential decree 268/24, included a map with distorted proportions (Angola has been flattened in a north-south direction).
As a result, at the very least, the general administrative and topographical map of Angola should be renewed (:c:Category:Location maps of Angola). As a next step, these should be updated in the relevant map template used in pushpin maps for Angola (Angola#Africa). The articles of municipalities (município) or their possible subdivisions (comuna), including cities, towns and other populated places, typically use these pushpin maps. Then, the maps showing the location of each province (:c:Category:SVG locator maps of provinces in Angola (location map scheme)), should be updated, to reflect the new administrative division. It has already entered into force in principle, although the change will be implemented gradually over the period 2025-2027. If possible, consider creating 1-2 maps also in the :c:Category:SVG labeled maps of administrative divisions of Angola (location map scheme)? At some point, also the Angola map covering the 326 municipalities could be generated, but I think this is not the most urgent issue.

Discussion
Hi. I was just wondering if there were an easy way to get current administrative borders.. But e.g. website https://www.topogis-ao.com/arquivos-sig-e-cad seems to have shapefiles of the old DPA division of Angola, the new is not yet there... This website suggests, that their data originated from: (). Perhaps someone who speaks Portuguese could contact the ministry and ask for an update? It would be also in their interest that Wikipedia updates the maps of Angola.
On the same occasion, it is definitely worth asking what the ministry considers to be the area of each province in square kilometres (and as a check, ask for the total area of the state). The argument could be that numerous official websites (such as https://governo.gov.ao/angola/provincias, and the provincial websites linked to it) currently have incorrect information about the area of many provinces even before the new political-administrative division.
However, I think the correct data could be requested directly from the national geodetic institute. In Angola the national geodetic (mapping research) institute is (, IGCA, https://www.igca.gov.ao/; earlier also , per https://www.igca.gov.ao/historia). It works under the Ministry of Planning, Urbanism, and Construction (, MINOPUH, https://minopuh.gov.ao/). I currently cannot access e.g. ESRI ArcGIS license which I could use for free commercial purposes, so I request that somebody else could do this... --Paju~enwiki (talk) 06:29, 21 March 2025 (UTC)
As no response came here, this request was sent to Commons User:NordNordWest. --Paju~enwiki (talk) 02:25, 27 March 2025 (UTC)
User:NordNordWest has made the requested updates. User:NordNordWest even updated the new maps in numerous Wikipedia projects. Fantastic! Should we mark this as Done? --Paju~enwiki (talk) 00:52, 5 April 2025 (UTC) |

Draft:Intelligent Metasurface | AfC submission | Intelligent metasurfaces are a class of artificially engineered surfaces that can manipulate electromagnetic waves in unconventional ways . They are composed of subwavelength-sized elements, also known as meta-atoms, arranged in a periodic or aperiodic pattern on a surface. These meta-atoms can be designed to exhibit tailored electromagnetic properties, allowing the metasurface to control the propagation, reflection, absorption, or polarization of incident waves. |
Draft:Intelligent Metasurface | Feature | Feature
The key features of intelligent metasurfaces include:
Subwavelength control: The meta-atoms, being much smaller than the wavelength of the incident waves, enable precise control over the amplitude, phase, and polarization of the waves at a subwavelength scale.
Reconfigurability: Intelligent metasurfaces can be designed with tunable or reconfigurable properties, allowing dynamic control over their electromagnetic behavior. This can be achieved by incorporating active materials, such as liquid crystals, phase-change materials, or semiconductor elements, into the meta-atoms.
Multifunctionality: Metasurfaces can be engineered to perform multiple functions simultaneously, such as beam steering, wavefront shaping, polarization conversion, and frequency filtering.
Thin and planar: Unlike traditional bulky electromagnetic devices, metasurfaces are typically thin and planar, making them suitable for integration into compact devices and systems. |
Draft:Intelligent Metasurface | Application | Application
Intelligent metasurfaces have found applications in various fields, including:
Antenna systems: Metasurface antennas can achieve high directivity, beam steering, and frequency agility while maintaining a low profile.
Imaging and sensing: Metasurfaces can be used for wavefront engineering, enabling applications in lensing, holography, and computational imaging.
Telecommunications: Metasurfaces can be employed for signal processing, beamforming, and frequency multiplexing in wireless communication systems.
Electromagnetic cloaking and camouflage: Metasurfaces can manipulate the scattering properties of objects, enabling applications in electromagnetic cloaking and camouflage.
Energy harvesting: Metasurfaces can be designed to enhance the absorption of electromagnetic waves for efficient energy harvesting in solar cells or rectenna arrays.
Intelligent metasurfaces represent a promising avenue for controlling and manipulating electromagnetic waves in compact and versatile ways, enabling new functionalities and applications across various domains. |
Draft:Intelligent Metasurface | Fabrication | Fabrication
The meta-atoms in intelligent metasurfaces are typically fabricated using advanced nanofabrication techniques. The fabrication process involves creating the desired subwavelength-scale patterns of meta-atoms on a substrate material. The choice of fabrication method depends on factors such as the operating frequency range, the required feature sizes, and the materials used.
Here are some common fabrication techniques used for intelligent metasurfaces:
Electron-beam lithography (EBL): EBL is a widely used technique for fabricating metasurfaces, especially those operating in the visible and near-infrared frequency ranges. It involves exposing a resist layer on a substrate to a focused electron beam, followed by developing the exposed pattern and depositing or etching the desired meta-atom structures.
Focused ion beam (FIB) milling: FIB milling utilizes a focused beam of ions (typically gallium ions) to directly mill or etch the desired meta-atom patterns on a substrate. This technique is suitable for fabricating metasurfaces with feature sizes down to a few nanometers.
Nanoimprint lithography (NIL): NIL is a high-throughput and cost-effective technique for patterning metasurfaces. It involves creating a reusable mold with the desired meta-atom pattern and then imprinting (or hot embossing) this pattern onto a resist layer on the substrate.
Interference lithography: This technique utilizes the interference pattern formed by two or more coherent laser beams to create periodic patterns on a photoresist layer. It is particularly useful for fabricating large-area metasurfaces with periodic meta-atom arrangements.
Self-assembly techniques: In some cases, meta-atoms can be formed through self-assembly processes, such as the self-organization of colloidal nanoparticles or the controlled growth of nanostructures using techniques like chemical vapor deposition (CVD) or molecular beam epitaxy (MBE).
Hybrid approaches: Intelligent metasurfaces may also be fabricated using a combination of techniques, such as EBL for patterning and atomic layer deposition (ALD) or CVD for depositing the desired materials.
After the meta-atom patterns are created, additional processing steps may be required, such as material deposition, etching, or lift-off processes, to finalize the metasurface structure. The choice of materials used for the meta-atoms and the substrate depends on the desired operating frequency range and the required electromagnetic properties.
It's worth noting that the fabrication of intelligent metasurfaces, especially those with reconfigurable or active elements, can be challenging and may require integrating additional components or materials into the meta-atom structures. |

The Groomsmen: Second Chances | refimprove | The Groomsmen: Second Chances is a 2024 American romantic comedy film directed by Ron Oliver. It stars Jonathan Bennett and Alexander Lincoln. The film portrays a baseball coach who becomes aware of his romantic feelings for his best friend after the latter becomes engaged.
It is the second installment in The Groomsmen trilogy, the set of romantic comedy movies told from the male perspective and following the lives and romances of three longtime best friends who stand next to each other on the biggest days of their lives. It was released on Hallmark+ on October 24, 2024.
The film won the GLAAD Media Award for Outstanding Film – Streaming or TV. |
The Groomsmen: Second Chances | Plot | Plot
Elizabeth, still in her wedding dress, runs from her own wedding and asks Kate, a tavern owner, to help her ward off three pursuing groomsmen. Kate agrees to hide Elizabeth, but only if Elizabeth explains why she ran. Elizabeth begins to tell a love story.
Danny, a former pro baseball player turned coach, is easygoing and relies heavily on his business manager, Zack, for everything outside of baseball. Despite their contrasting personalities—Danny is optimistic, Zack is meticulous—they're close friends who openly share details about their romantic lives. Dany's old friends, Jackson and Pete, often suggest Danny and Zack should date, but Danny always dismisses the idea, convinced they're just friends.
Danny's perspective changes when he learns Zack broke up with his boyfriend, Nolan, because Nolan rejected Zack's marriage proposal. Danny suddenly realizes he has romantic feelings for Zack. Encouraged by Jackson and Pete, Danny plans to confess, but then he is told that Zack and Nolan have reconciled and are getting married. Heartbroken but supportive, Danny agrees to be Zack's best man and helps plan the wedding since Nolan is too busy. They decide on a Greek winery Danny and Zack once visited for work.
Initially, Danny maintains a professional distance while planning, but the more time he spends alone with Zack, the stronger his feelings become. Jackson and Pete, seeing Zack's genuine love for Nolan, warn Danny not to risk their friendship by confessing his true feelings.
Two weeks before the wedding, Nolan's new work commitment means he can only arrive in Greece the day before the ceremony, leaving Zack to travel alone. Danny watches Zack leave with mixed emotions. Once in Greece, Zack discovers the winery handling all their local arrangements has gone out of business, leaving the wedding plans in complete chaos. Panicked, Zack calls Danny, who immediately rushes to Greece, even though he has some games.
With help from Ophelia, a local YouTuber and culinary expert introduced by Jackson, and her ex-husband, Constantinos, a florist, they manage to find a new venue and reschedule the wedding for the original date. This crisis brings Danny and Zack even closer. Two nights before the wedding, they almost share a spontaneous kiss, but Nolan's early arrival interrupts them. Danny now knows Zack feels the same way.
The next day, Danny tries to discuss the almost-kiss, but Zack refuses, unwilling to call off his wedding to Nolan. Desperate not to lose his best friend, Danny tries to suppress his feelings. However, that evening, urged on by Jackson and Pete, Danny honestly expresses his emotions to Zack. Though Zack looks conflicted, he firmly rejects Danny.
On the wedding day, Zack realizes the unbridgeable distance between him and Nolan. Meanwhile, Jackson and Pete find Danny looking out at the sea from a cliff. Then Zack appears, finally confessing his feelings to Danny. They declare their love, share a kiss, and hand-in-hand, leap off the cliff—a jump Zack had been reluctant to make.
One year later, Danny and Zack are getting married at the same Greek location. It's revealed that on the original wedding day, Zack told Nolan he couldn't marry him. Nolan, though upset, understood, and they parted amicably. Nolan has since married someone else and now has four children.
Surrounded by family and friends, Danny and Zack exchange vows, tearfully expressing their love, and are officially wed.
Elizabeth tells Kate that this story taught her, "Sometimes, love is right there in front of you. All you have to do is open your eyes and see it." Kate is moved by the happy ending but points out it doesn't fully explain Elizabeth's own actions. Elizabeth, while asserting her love for her fiancé, replies that to truly explain herself, she needs to share another love story. |

Draft:Mark Carnes | Draft topics | Mark Christopher Carnes is an American historian and educator known for founding the Reacting to the Past pedagogy.
After earning his Ph.D. from Columbia University in 1982, he joined Barnard College, where he has been a professor of History and chaired the history department from 1992 to 1995. In 1989, he and John A. Garraty became co-editors of the American National Biography (1999). As that work concluded, he developed Reacting to the Past, an interactive pedagogy in which students engage in complex role-playing games informed by historical texts. He helped refine the methodology and worked as the founding Executive Director of the Reacting Consortium, a nonprofit that oversees its development. |

Carnes was born in Pocatello, Idaho, in 1950. His father worked for J.C. Penney. He studied piano at the Eastman School of Music. At Newburgh Free Academy, he met Mary Elin Korchinsky, his partner and collaborator. They graduated in 1969 and married in 1976.
Carnes earned a B.A. in history in 1974. He then directed the Orange County Nutrition Program for the Elderly before enrolling in Columbia University's history program in 1976. In 1980, he was appointed Orange County Historian and became a visiting assistant professor of history at Vassar College in 1981. He earned his Ph.D. from Columbia in 1982. |
Draft:Mark Carnes | Career | Career
By the late 1990s, Carnes developed simulations to enhance engagement in his first-year seminar on great texts, which evolved into month-long games set in historical contexts such as Athens after the Peloponnesian War, Ming China, Puritan Boston, revolutionary France, and pre-independence India. This led to the development of Reacting to the Past.
In 2013, Carnes was named the first executive director of the Reacting Consortium. He stepped down in 2022.
In 1991, he succeeded Kenneth Jackson as executive secretary of the Society of American Historians (SAH). He became general editor of Past Imperfect: History According to the Movies (1995). He also edited Invisible Giants: Fifty Americans Who Shaped the Nation but Missed the History Books (2002). He resigned as executive secretary in 2009 but remained on the SAH Board. |
Draft:Mark Carnes | Works | Works
Early in his career, Carnes worked on editing projects, including The Compensations of War: The Diary of an Ambulance Driver during the Great War (1983) and Dictionary of American Biography, Supplements 8-9 (1988), co-edited with John Garraty. His first book, Secret Ritual and Manhood in Victorian America (1989), argued that middle-class men, responding to the feminization of religion and women's predominant role in childrearing, sought refuge in fraternal organizations such as the Freemasons and Odd Fellows. These groups fostered a secret, male-exclusive culture through elaborate initiatory rituals that functioned as an alternative form of religion and family structure. He also co-edited Meanings for Manhood: Constructions of Masculinity in Victorian America (1990) with Clyde Griffen, an early work in the field of men's history.
In 1989, the American Council of Learned Societies selected Garraty and Carnes to develop the American National Biography as a successor to the Dictionary of American Biography. Published in 1999, the 24-volume work contained 17,400 entries totaling 20 million words. The Times of London remarked, "Not since putting a man on the Moon has an American organisation undertaken such an ambitious logistical project." The American National Biography was released in both print and online formats, winning the R.R. Hawkins Award for Outstanding Scholarly Work from the Association of American Publishers (1999) and the Waldo G. Leland Prize from the American Historical Association (2001).
Prior to this, in 2001, Carnes published Novel History: Historians and Novelists Confront America's Past (and Each Other). In 2004, he succeeded Oscar Handlin as series editor of the Library of American Biography.
Carnes's Reacting to the Past games have been published as six books. In Minds on Fire: How Role-Immersion Games Transform College (2014), he argued that American colleges had long struggled to compete with subversive play worlds such as literary societies, fraternities, football culture, drinking, and video games, which absorbed students' energies. He contended that intellectualized role-playing games like Reacting to the Past effectively harnessed those motivational energies. |
